Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 480: Satisfied

Finding the clues naturally made Chen Ruobai very happy. He believed that he now had a chance to win and believed that he was on the right path.

What we should do now is actually very simple. It is simply to dig deeper along this small ravine to see if we can find more valuable clues.

As for things that may cost you a lot of money, they are actually small things. He could still afford such a sum of money. This is a serious matter, and it is reasonable to spend money on these things.

It's a good thing to be able to spend it, because it means that his career can have some new breakthroughs, which is very worthy of his happiness.

If you spend hundreds of thousands or millions at this time, you will get returns several times or more than ten times. Of course there will be no reluctance to part with such a necessary investment.

Sometimes you have money on hand but cannot spend it, which is a kind of distress. If you can spend your money in the right place, you will be happy and proud of it.

Chen Ruobai is full of expectations and confidence in this. He believes that he can do better in this matter. He also feels that he is getting closer to the correct path of spending a large amount of money step by step.

Henderson and Morgan are also working hard, and they have swept away their previous frustrations because this time they really made a discovery.

Henderson was drilling the hole hard, and when he saw Chen Ruobai approaching, he said, "Robert, if we find Fortune Creek again, Ryan will definitely be the happiest one."

Chen Ruobai thought it made sense, and Henderson continued, "There may be more gold here, and we need to work longer here, which is definitely a good thing for us."

This seems to be the case. If we could have long-term, stable jobs, everyone would be happy.

But there is no need to be particularly optimistic now. Chen Ruobai said, "I think this may require long-term work. Based on some clues I have seen so far, the area of ​​the ore sand layer is large enough. However, it is difficult for it to become a fortune stream, mainly because the density is not high enough. .”

The reason why Facai Creek is Facai Creek is not just because there are large enough mineral sand reserves there, but also because there is a very high gold density there.

These are the reasons for the success of Fortune Creek. It does not mean that the mining area is large, but the density of gold is not high enough, so it is useless to say anything.

Observing the mineral sand carefully, Chen Ruobai's feeling was still relatively average, which seemed to confirm the fact that this place was not a real Fortune Creek. There was nothing to deny, it was a fact.

You can still see gold sand here, which is of course the best thing. However, the density of gold is not high enough, and even judging from the situation around this gully, it is not even worth digging. This is a thankless effort and it is difficult to get back the money.

But in any case, this is not necessarily the most important thing. After all, the existence of this gully is to find the source of the formation of gold mines. These are the things he cares about most.

As for the other things, they are all secondary. It may not be necessary to directly find a large mine at this time, etc.

Chen Ruobai knew this truth very well, so for now it was better to continue searching according to the picture. It was enough to continue to find the source.

Others can be put aside for the time being, and some things really cannot be rushed. At this time, Chen Ruobai only needs to find the ore, and he only needs to do further in-depth exploration work.

As for whether Lesnar will be particularly happy, that will have to wait a little longer. No one knows the final answer now, and the prospecting work is still going on. No one can guarantee whether it is a large mine or something else.

Henderson lit a cigarette and said, "Robert, do you think we will find more if we continue to drill down?"

Chen Ruobai understood what Henderson meant and asked with a smile, "Do you think if the hole is deeper, there is a chance of finding more gold?"

"Isn't it?" Henderson asked rhetorically, "I think this is the best approach. If we speculate according to common sense, we can indeed find more gold deep in the ore sand layer. This theory will definitely not wrong."

Chen Ruobai smiled and joked, "This is just a theory. We all know this truth. If I just pursue depth, it will not work. I will not penetrate the earth. Digging out magma does not mean that I have a chance to find more gold." "

Since Chen Ruobai's words reached such an extreme situation, it was naturally not easy for Henderson to refute.

However, he also admitted that Chen Ruobai was right. The ore layer was very deep, which did not mean success. Being able to find gold is the reason for success, and it is also the most intuitive and effective explanation.

Further exploration is still needed. Although some discoveries have been made now, this is far from enough. More clues are needed to confirm his series of inferences.

Chen Ruobai did not hide his thoughts and said, "I don't think it makes much sense to drill holes into the depths. We have drilled about five meters now, which is enough. If the gold was washed down from above, it means that they It can’t be buried too deep.”

Henderson also reacted and immediately said, "That's true, especially since we can't find river sand now."

Since river sand cannot be found, it means that there is only some silt here, and there is really no need to dig too deep a drilling hole, because the silt is basically not located too deep.

All of this is naturally based on speculations made by Chen Ruobai and others based on previously discovered gold mines. The series of previous discoveries and so on are not worthless. They can make the next work easier.

This is not just something to talk about casually. These are also Chen Ruobai's experience and insights. All of these are also a series of his discoveries and gains. As a gold digger, he not only relies on his 'eyesight', he also relies on experience and ability, and relies on his own continuous learning to grow and improve.

Keep up the hard work, there is still a lot of work to be done, which also means that no one can be lazy, and there will be quite a lot of prospecting work ahead.

These are Chen Ruobai's inner thoughts, and these are also his experiences. He knows what he needs to do and what needs to be improved. All of these are inevitable.

Work hard, and only by continuing to work hard at this time can you have the opportunity to do better and gain more gains.

If you are just a layman, you may think that some of Chen Ruobai's work is just busy searching along the ravine.

From a purely superficial perspective, this is indeed the case. Looking at it now, we are just searching along the ravine. After all, these are the most obvious traces, and it is really not troublesome to find them. But for Chen Ruobai, the ravine was not just a clue. He was also carefully looking for some golden light. These clues were relatively easy for him to find, and they also seemed to be more effective clues.

The cause of the formation of the gold deposits at the bottom of the hillside seems to have been basically found, which is of course a very good thing.

But he still needs to continue working hard. He is looking forward to more discoveries and more important clues.

After inspecting the ore dug out in Henderson, Chen Ruobai said, "Okay, you can change the place, and the distance can be wider."

Henderson has no objection. Some of our current working modes and prospecting progress have still changed, and efficiency is constantly improving. All of this is based on the premise that we can make discoveries.

At first, when prospecting on this side of the gully, the gap between the three people was very small. But after constantly finding some gold sand, we can continue to push upwards, and there will be no problem with the gap getting bigger and bigger.

After all, this ravine is actually the source of the gold mine below, and it is just a channel.

If you search upwards, it is naturally to have a chance to find the real source and to find more places where gold accumulates. That also determines whether Chen Ruobai will spend money to buy this area.

Morgan's luck seems to have run out, because there is no gold sand in the mines he is digging, and it seems that there are not many valuable places.

However, Chen Ruobai still signaled Morgan to move forward, but the depth of the exploration hole should be tried to be deepened by one to two meters, all in order to observe more carefully.

In the eyes of others, the silt drilled out of the mines looks very ordinary, and it seems that it is indeed nothing special. But in the eyes of some professionals, this soil is not just soil, it is also valuable mineral sand.

Morgan carried the Luoyang shovel and asked as he walked, "Robert, are we always going to find the top of the mountain?"

"If it's possible, I don't rule out the possibility." Chen Ruobai said with a smirk, "But this possibility is unlikely. I think it may be enough for us to just find the end of this gully."

Morgan asked directly, "Can't we go directly to the end of the gully? It doesn't seem too difficult. We just need to clear away some vegetation on the surface."

This proposal seems to be a very good one, and it seems to be exactly what Chen Ruobai should do.

However, he still said, "Theoretically, there is no problem, but you also know that the gold mine is not necessarily at the end. If there is no gold mine at the end, we can only search downwards along the ravine, which is also a lot of work."

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, Morgan couldn't say much because he knew that what Chen Ruobai said was very reasonable. Some jobs are destined to be impossible to take advantage of, and can only be done well in a down-to-earth manner.

These are the facts. If you take every step in a down-to-earth manner, you may be able to gain something and discover something in the end.

Do the next work well in a down-to-earth manner, and it is impossible to be lazy. Only by doing a series of tasks in a down-to-earth manner can the subsequent work be easier.

After all, this is prospecting, and the hard work now is actually for the harvest in the future. Without such efforts, it would be unrealistic to get adequate returns in the future.

Looking at Morgan, Chen Ruobai joked, "If we can make a discovery next, you can consider returning to Seattle for vacation."

"Sounds good, I'm already looking forward to it." Morgan joked, "But I'm more looking forward to the bonus, because I have several children, and my income can only guarantee a basic living."

Chen Ruobai couldn't help but complained, "Are you serious? I have always been a very good boss, and the treatment I give you is not bad. But these remarks of yours hurt my feelings and will make people misunderstand that I am A Grandet who is very stingy with his employees."

"Even if you give me an annual salary of two hundred thousand dollars now, I will feel that the money is not enough because I have many children." Morgan said proudly, "When you were a lumberjack, your income could only ensure a basic life. Now As your income increases, your requirements will also increase.”

This seems to make sense. Having no money means having a lifestyle without money, while having money means having some choices. This is a very normal thing.

Therefore, the situation mentioned by Morgan is completely understandable. As income increases, people also have requirements for improving the quality of life. This is also human nature.

"Then work hard. You will have the opportunity to earn more money and let the children live a better life." Chen Ruobai looked serious and looked very confident. "Every effort you make will definitely be worth it." There’s enough reward to be had.”

Morgan didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Although he was older than Chen Ruobai, Chen Ruobai's status as the boss made him convincing enough when he said these words.

Thinking about his usual performance and achievements, all of this naturally seems more convincing.

But at the next moment, Chen Ruobai's good image collapsed, "You need to work hard so that I can make more money. My children will need to live in bigger villas and fly better private jets in the future. All of this requires You work hard to make it happen.”

Morgan looked at Chen Ruobai and said with great seriousness and certainty, "Robert, has anyone told you some facts, such as that you are a bastard?"

Chen Ruobai laughed and said triumphantly, "There is no need for anyone to remind me of this, I know it myself! It's good to be a bastard, it makes it easier."

The two of them talked and laughed, and couldn't delay their work.

However, we must admit that everyone is in a good mood now and are ready to joke around. The prospecting work is now progressing very well, and everyone is naturally in a much better mood.
