Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 406
Chen Ruobai, who was serious about his work, jumped into the water again. This time Morgan jumped into the water, and the two began to use engineering shovels to scrape off some river sand on the surface of the river.

Morgan and Henderson may not understand how this will help prospecting, and even if they have some doubts in their hearts, they won't say anything more.That is not their area of ​​expertise. They just need to learn from others and make arrangements for Chen Ruobai.

The work we are doing now is not easy, but it is much better than drilling holes, so there is no need to complain too much.

After Chen Ruobai and the others finished their work, Henderson helped drag Chen Ruobai onto the boat.

Looking at the wet Chen Ruobai, Henderson joked, "I hope you find the mineral line this time."

Pointing to Fortune Creek, Chen Ruobai said, "This is the mineral vein line. You should have known this a long time ago. But I must praise your progress. You all know the mineral vein line now."

'Ore vein line' is a relatively general term, but for these gold prospectors, it is to judge the direction of the mineral vein based on topography and landform trends, etc. These can all be called 'ore vein lines'.

It's just that this kind of title is mostly used in mines, and gold diggers like Chen Ruobai and others will probably not use it.

This is especially true for Chen Ruobai. Nowadays, he is basically panning for gold in rivers. There is no vein line to speak of.

Morgan handed Chen Ruobai a piece of chocolate and then joked, "He came to the company just because of the salary at first, and he also thought about leaving here. You also know how bad the working environment here is and how boring it is. But now he likes it very much Here, he always takes the initiative to learn, and his excavator driving skills have improved a lot."

Chen Ruobai joked, "I was originally worried that you would change jobs, but now the employment environment has improved."

Imperialism is not in dire straits, and Jianguo still has some fundamentals. Regardless of whether he is causing trouble or not, many Americans like him just because he has some skills in economics.

Henderson complained, "Even if the employment environment is getting better now, it doesn't have much to do with us. I can't find a job with an annual salary of more than $[-] anywhere else, and that's not counting other things. Welfare."

Morgan followed suit and said, "Yes, we all know our abilities and we can't find any other better jobs."

The quality of the environment does affect employment, etc., but no matter how good the environment is, it cannot change that some people really cannot make more money because their abilities are indeed limited, and they may not be able to complain to others.

Chen Ruobai laughed and said, "To be honest, if someone had given me a job with an annual salary of more than [-] yuan, or more than [-] yuan, I would definitely not have become a gold digger."

It is true that truck drivers have high salaries, but Chen Ruobai cannot afford a truck driver.

To say that a lumberjack’s job is high is a relative term, but there is no way to log trees year-round in Alaska.

Buying a villa, washing dishes, and becoming wealthy and free in three years is simply a dream.Many people working on farms and ranches earn less than $[-] a year, and the annual income of restaurant waiters is about the same.

Exceeding the average of around $[-] is very difficult for many Americans.If you don't have enough ability and opportunities, changing the environment may not mean you can change your life.

Seeing Chen Ruobai and the others boarding the boat, Henderson continued to drive the boat down the river, and had to further complete some prospecting work. These things cannot be dealt with easily and will take some time.

Sometimes work is so boring and repetitive, and Chen Ruobai doesn't have any problem with it, just jump into the water again and again.

Henderson and Morgan naturally have no objections. They just have to learn from others. The boss Chen Ruobai has done this. Naturally, they can't find any reason to shirk. They must do what they should do in a down-to-earth manner.

Chen Ruobai carefully observed the river surface, and some in-depth investigations made some discoveries one after another, which made him feel quite happy. He felt that these things were indeed not a loss and worthy of gratification and recognition.

It's a good thing to make a discovery. It proves that your work these days has been fruitful, and it's worth being happy!
It was also because there were too many points to explore, and the distance we originally ran out of was quite far, which meant that we couldn't rush back immediately.Four days and three nights didn't work, so this was six days and five nights of continuous prospecting.

The three of them were naturally more unkempt, even the tall one was a lot sloppier, and he seemed to have lost a little weight.

As for these tasks, they are indeed boring. Morgan and Henderson continued to repeat some tasks without knowing why.But Chen Ruobai was different. His mood was getting better and better because he knew that he had found a valuable clue this time.

Finding gold and gold mines will naturally make people happy. The suffering suffered during this period is nothing. In front of gold, it is just a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning.

Chen Ruobai and others were not said to be in high spirits and high energy when they set off, but no matter how you looked at it, it had nothing to do with being in a state of despair.

Maybe Morgan and Henderson have a slightly worse image after working in the mines for a while, but it's nothing.But this time I went out prospecting for nearly a week, and my image was almost that of someone running away from famine.

To be more precise, I thought these people passed through the rainforest and Mexico from South America.This doesn't look like prospecting. This is simply doing the so-called 'line routing'.

Looking at Chen Ruobai and others, Devi gloated and said, "I know you will definitely leave the mine tomorrow. You need to rest."

Chen Ruobai took a sip of the ice-cold Feizhai Happy Water and suddenly came to life, "The two of them really need a vacation. They should be given a vacation every time the prospecting work is completed."

Devi didn't say anything. Originally, Henderson and Morgan's main task was to be responsible for prospecting matters, so their presence in the mine naturally meant they could help more.But if they are not here, it will not affect the normal work of the team.

Moreover, people like Devi know a little bit about whether prospecting work is hard, and they all understand that it will obviously not be easy.

It seems that they have a little more vacation time than others, but this is what they have earned with their hard work, and they deserve it.

Lesnar asked with concern, "If you hadn't checked with us every day to confirm safety, we would have gone to seek rescue. This is at least two days longer than you planned, and it looks like we have made a major discovery."

Seeing everyone looking over at once, Chen Ruobai didn't hide it, "There are some discoveries, but they are not major discoveries. Your appetite has become bigger and you can't look down on some small mines." Devi said proudly. , “After working in a rich mine for a period of time, I really look down on other small mines.”

Lesnar also followed up and said, "I think so too. I don't even think there is anything special about the gold mines we used to work in. Although I know those places are very good, they are just good."

Look, each one of them has expanded accordingly, and each one of them now has high requirements.The reason is very simple. It is simply because I have seen the rich mines. Now I have truly seen the world, and I am not satisfied with just making small fuss.

Chen Ruobai said selectively, "I think this time it's probably not a bonanza, it's just the type of work we did last year."

Devi thought for a while and said, "That's acceptable. It wouldn't be bad if we dig out more than six hundred ounces of gold in a month."

Listen, if these words are heard by other gold diggers, they will definitely be beaten. These people really talk without pain when standing up.I found [-] ounces of gold in one month, but the evaluation I received was only 'good', which seemed a little unsatisfactory.

You must know that many gold prospecting teams may not be able to achieve such gains during the entire gold mining season!
Morgan suddenly said, "But it will not be easy to mine in those places. They are too far away from our mines. The early construction will definitely take a lot of time and some costs."

This is where Chen Ruobai is now a little unsure. He can only say, "So we still need to continue to explore. If it is less than [-] ounces, there is really no profit margin for me. It is just to support the team."

This is the last resort. If there are really no other gold mines to mine, it would be better to support the team a little. You can't let them be idle. They always have to find something to do.

Of course, this is the most hopeless solution. Now Chen Ruobai has not even found the specific location of the gold mine, let alone knows how much gold is stored. Now all this is unknown.

There may be more gold, but it may also have no mining value at all. These are all possibilities.

But no matter what, Chen Ruobai has found some clues and found some possibilities, which is good.

His requirements are actually not very high. It does not mean that a week of hard work prospecting outside will definitely pay off.Not every gold mine you find has mining value and you can make some money.

There are no such good things. Things like gold mining are full of uncertainties. Some real answers can only be known through the process of continuous exploration and mining. These indeed require some time to confirm.

There's no rush, at least Chen Ruobai doesn't feel like there's anything to be anxious or nervous about now.

He has now found some clues and has made some discoveries. Next, he only needs to continue the survey step by step. In this way, he may be able to get closer to the gold mine, and maybe there will be more discoveries.

As long as there are good signs, it means more possibilities and success is getting closer.

Chen Ruobai has brought back some good news. Compared with last year, some prospecting work this year seems to be much smoother, and there seem to be more discoveries this year.

Although it is true that Fa Cai Xi was found last year, everyone seems to think that Chen Ruobai's success is natural.The fact that he failed to find a gold mine for more than half a year was one of the topics that everyone talked about.

His success is natural, but some of his small failures are very special and worthy of discussion.

But it's different now. Chen Ruobai doesn't give these people a chance to enjoy the show. He finally has a good fortune.

Now he has not only found a gold mine again, a big mine, but he is also continuing to find new gold mines.This proves that his prospecting skills are still superb, and he is still the best gold digger.

There is no such thing as resting on one's laurels, and it is simply impossible to be a flash in the pan. He is very successful now and will definitely continue to be so successful in the future, and other gold diggers can only fall behind.

There must be a little bit of pride. For a man, career is one of the most important things.Chen Ruobai has a successful career and is still making continuous progress. Of course, he deserves a little pride.

Although some discoveries were made during the prospecting, Chen Ruobai didn't need to say anything more to everyone, he just gave a rough outline.

No one can guarantee what the follow-up situation will be like. Continuous observation is needed, and prospecting will continue.

After working hard for nearly a week, Chen Ruobai also needed a good rest. This time he did not plan to stay in Alaska. He planned to go directly back to Seattle to enjoy his vacation.

It's just that although the plan is good, there will be some emergencies that will catch people off guard.

Chen Ruobai had just landed in Seattle when Lawrence called, and that old bastard Toby finally took action.

The speechless Chen Ruobai asked directly, "You should know that I have just finished my prospecting work. I am like a primitive man in the forest. I need a vacation."

Lawrence said, "Of course I also want to give you a holiday, but that old bastard won't give you a chance. We have just transferred, and we attach great importance to new money-making spots. If I am not wrong, he brought a metal detector instrument."

Chen Ruobai became serious now. He had been guessing what new tricks that old guy Toby had, and now it seemed that the answer to the mystery had been revealed. It seemed that this was really a moderate threat to Chen Ruobai.

Previously, Toby was just following the Gold Hunter, thinking that if he got closer, he would be close to the point of attracting gold.But this trick was useless. Chen Ruobai could accurately attract money, but he couldn't.

But it's different now. Just bring a metal detector.After Chen Ruobai found the money-making point, Toby no longer needed to blindly search for the money-making point.Now you don’t have to worry about finding the location, just use a detector to detect it.

It doesn't matter if the efficiency is a little lower, you can still steal a lot of gold from the tiger's mouth!
