Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 400 Sincerity!
Comparing one person to another can really make people angry. The existence of Chen Ruobai seems to be just to make some people pale in comparison.

Not to mention people like Charles Young who are still struggling in the gold mining industry, even seemingly successful seniors like Dawson seem to be incomparable to Chen Ruobai.

Even if I feel a little unconvinced, I do have some jealousy, but this is the fact.Some people do have better abilities, and some people just have abilities that others don't have.

Chen Ruobai knew very well that even though he was so outstanding, he also felt that he was mediocre if he was not envied by others.

If others are jealous, then it is naturally their business. Chen Ruobai only needs to do his own thing well.

People like Reed are naturally the ones Chen Ruobai needs to learn from. The reason why these people can persist in this industry is obviously not because of love.There is no such thing as generating electricity for love. If there were no tangible benefits, these people would have left the industry long ago. Only by making money can we continue to do these things well.

They can continue to work in this industry, even if there are some minor setbacks or difficulties, but overall they can still make money and support their families, which is naturally a small sign of success.

After all, in any industry, there are very few people who can stand at the top of the pyramid.

Dawson looked around at everyone and said, "I like Robert very much because he is a very successful gold digger."

Chen Ruobai shrugged slightly, feeling a little proud, but he did think that he had done a pretty good job.

Reed looked at Dawson and complained, "You have left this industry, you don't need to pursue him. We need to communicate and cooperate more with this guy so that we can achieve greater success."

Dawson emphasized, "I have never left this industry, and everyone knows this. I am willing to cooperate with Robert. This young man can create greater success, and he can become the best in this industry."

Chen Ruobai was not embarrassed and just said, "I think so too. I am indeed very good."

This sounds a bit complacent, but no one thinks there is anything wrong with it.The reason is simple. This is just a manifestation of self-confidence, not arrogance.On the American side, many people believe that confidence is not a character that needs to be criticized.

Finley followed suit, "So we can get together more after the gold rush season is over. We are all successful. We have achieved something in this industry and everyone knows it."

This is also a manifestation of self-confidence, and the reason is very simple. It is simply because everyone is qualified to say so.

Being able to persist in struggling in this industry is a manifestation of success, which is naturally a proof of strength.

Charles Young doesn’t quite agree with this statement. “We don’t have to gather and communicate after the gold rush season is over. We can also have more cooperation now, especially since we all work in Fairbanks.”

Fairbanks and the Yukon Territory are indeed the areas where gold prospectors are most active, and it is relatively easier and closer to connect them.

When it comes to this, Finley has something to say, "We all know here that there will be a lot of logistical pressure in Alaska. We often need to transport some supplies from the mainland for supplies."

Mentioning these, Chen Ruobai gritted his teeth. These things are really facts.

Even though his company has a business jet now, it is a business jet, so it’s no problem to bring some luggage or some small parts.

If you really encounter some larger or heavier equipment, etc., you will probably still need to transport it by air.If time is not particularly urgent, then you must choose sea shipping with cheaper freight.

Finley continued, "The last time I had a problem with the track pads of my excavator, I was very angry. Some guys obviously had some that could be lent to me, but they didn't, so I had to wait for three days. Time, I wasted three days!”

Chen Ruobai didn't say much. Finley's situation was also common among gold diggers.

It is normal to have so many spare parts. Sometimes I feel that purchasing them locally in Alaska is too expensive, or if I really can’t find the parts, I have to ship them over from the mainland.

As for others not lending to Finley for emergencies, it may be because Finley's character is not trustworthy, or it may be because others are also worried about problems and are simply not willing to bear the risk of work stoppage.

Dawson complained, "You've always been like this, you've always had the minimum spare parts."

Listening to Dawson's words, Chen Ruobai seemed to understand why Finley was in such a situation, but he still looked for shortcomings in himself.

In the final analysis, I just want to save money and don't want to stock up on spare parts.When there are no problems, I will be happy and feel that I have saved a lot of money.When something goes wrong, it's best to remedy it in time. If you fail to remedy it in time, then admit defeat.

Therefore, it is normal for others not to lend parts to Finlay. Why should they bear some risks for Finlay?All of this is his own choice, so there is nothing to say. Everything is a personal choice and decision.

Chen Ruobai just smiled and said nothing. There were some things that he couldn't say much about.

Others probably have the same idea, and most of them can understand Finley's little thoughts. In the final analysis, they just want to take advantage.

In fact, many of the gold diggers are relatively low-level people. This does not mean that academic qualifications are linked to quality.But it is true that they came to Alaska to hunt for gold. Many people used to be at the bottom. Even after making some money, they may not have improved through cultivation and other things.

Chen Ruobai himself is like this. Sometimes he is an out-and-out nouveau riche. He doesn't think there is anything wrong with this, nor does he think he needs to change anything. He is still quite satisfied with his current situation.

Seeing that no one answered, Finley continued, "We should provide each other with some help, so that it will be more efficient."

Dawson took the initiative and said, "But if you need help every time, you need others to take risks, and no one is willing to cooperate with you. You also said that you need to help each other, rather than helping one person all the time."

Finley felt very wronged and very dissatisfied, "Man, I have been in this industry for a long time and I know how to work. I can provide more help to everyone instead of others helping me."

Charles Young said directly, "I believe you have such ability, but if you have more spare parts, you don't need our help. And we all know that gold mining is very busy, and you don't have time to help us." "Chen Ruobai couldn't help but glance at Finley. He didn't expect that he was a 'refined egoist'. This is a character who can only take advantage.Some of it is hard to tell. Judging from his appearance, he looks like a very forthright person.

Just because you know something doesn't mean you need to show it off. It's okay to know it in your mind.

Maybe some things about Finley's character need to be careful, so as not to get caught out.But in terms of ability, there is actually nothing to care about. He still has some merits.

Anyway, we are just colleagues. Even if we contact each other frequently in the future, it will probably only be to exchange work-related matters.If you don't have any personal relationships, you don't have to worry so much.

Speaking of which, Chen Ruobai really doesn't have many friends in the circle, perhaps because of the age gap.He, a young and promising young man, and this group of middle-aged people in their prime, would be fine just chatting about work or just having personal relationships.

Reed looked at Chen Ruobai and asked, "What do you think you need to pay attention to most when prospecting in the river valley?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Finley, who was still a little angry, couldn't care less about his anger. He wanted to know some of Chen Ruobai's views.

The reason is very simple. Everyone drove here from Fairbanks for several hours not to see what the house Chen Ruobai rented was like, or to drink a bottle of beer or a cup of coffee. They simply wanted to recognize Chen Ruobai's work. ability, and hope to communicate more with him at work.

Communicating more and maintaining good relationships with successful people may also bring some help to your own career.

For this group of gold diggers, this is the most important thing, and the rest is simply not worth mentioning.

Chen Ruobai thought about it carefully and asked, "How do you usually choose when prospecting?"

Finley was the first to say, "We are used to going to mines that have been explored before. Whether we contract short-term mining rights or are near the original mines, this is our way of prospecting."

Reed didn't object. Their approach was the choice of most gold diggers.In this way, the risk is naturally reduced a lot. As for having a particularly big harvest, you need to be lucky, but many people will not be able to be lucky in their lifetime.

Chen Ruobai didn't hide anything in particular, saying, "You may know my prospecting methods. I like high risk and high reward."

After hearing what Chen Ruobai said, no one naturally had any intention to refute, and they also knew something about the situation.

Chen Ruobai does have some high-risk and high-return ideas. Basically, his mines have never been mined before.These are all gold mines he found himself, which naturally means there will be higher output.

There are risks, of course. If you really work hard to find a place and start digging, if you make a mistake, it will mean no income at all, and you will have to pay a lot of manpower and material costs.

"I like to look for river valleys and river channels." Chen Ruobai continued, "So I have a river map of the Yukon Territory in my study, including some survey data, including some ancient river channel data. I will patiently search for every A river channel or a river bend, the reason why I succeeded is just because I experimented a lot."

Reed said, "Just like us, doing some experimental gold mining in some river valleys?"

Chen Ruobai nodded, everyone's working methods are actually similar.

Most other gold diggers are like this. After choosing a place, especially those new places, they will spend a day or two digging for ore sand in the early stage, or even less time.

Then experimentally wash the ore, see the gold production, and calculate the time and cost.If you think it is profitable, call the team. If you think it is not cost-effective, continue digging in another place. Take a shot and change the place. This can reduce the possibility of failure.

The method seems a little stupid, but this approach is really effective. Most gold diggers are accustomed to this method, which ensures that they do not need to take more risks.

Chen Ruobai continued, "I have always been like this. I will choose river valley areas and river channel areas to continuously dig holes in gold mine areas that may be formed by impact, and then conduct analysis. If you think this method is acceptable, I am willing to work with you. The more you communicate, the more successful we will definitely be.”

Chen Ruobai thought that what he told was the truth. He was indeed willing to communicate, and he was even honest. This was a very sincere sign.But other people didn't seem to believe much of what he said, nor did they agree with some of his working methods.

The reason is very simple. According to Chen Ruobai's approach, the cost will rise linearly and it will take a lot of time. This is naturally unacceptable to other gold diggers. This may be the option with the highest risk.

So much so that they all suspected that Chen Ruobai only told part of the secret to success and retained the core technology.

If that's the case, it doesn't seem to be a problem. Chen Ruobai seems to have revealed the secret of his success.

It's just that these people don't have golden eyes. It's almost impossible for them to see golden light.If we really directly copy some of Chen Ruobai's practices, it will be tantamount to seeking death, and it will only continue to increase costs.

And the possibility of harvest may not be improved much.

I've said everything that needs to be said, and it doesn't matter whether others believe it or not. Chen Ruobai's main thing is to tell the truth, and he doesn't care whether others can copy his success.

As for Chen Ruobai's remarks, people like Reed do feel that there is some risk, and they also feel that it seems impossible to learn from them at first glance.But it doesn't matter, continue to inquire for some information and communicate more, maybe you will have a chance to get closer to the truth.

This gathering looks pretty good. Compared to the past, Chen Ruobai seems to be more willing to communicate with everyone, which is a good improvement.If we continue to maintain this rhythm and state, we will definitely have the opportunity to achieve greater success in the future.

It’s not a bad thing to communicate more with a young successful person. Let’s work together and achieve greater success together.

This is what people like Reed think, but they may not know what Chen Ruobai is thinking.
