Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 508 Situation
The exploration of Golden Mountain still needs to continue, and these things must not be careless. We must seize the time when we should.

This is an out-and-out big deal, and it can even be said that this will be the focus of our work in the next period of time. Of course, we need to take these things more seriously, and we must not be careless.

The work of attracting money in Anchorage was arranged almost all at once, and it was released directly in stages. That's not laziness, it's mainly so that you can concentrate on exploring the Golden Mountain.

There are certain risks in doing so, and it may also have some impact on work efficiency and so on.

It's not that Chen Ruobai hasn't thought of these things, but he also understands that you can't have your cake and eat it too. His most important thing now is the exploration of Jinshan Mountain, so of course he has to be more attentive and focused.

Therefore, he can only choose to take some risks. The gold-absorbing output may drop slightly, but he can accept this result because it is also within expectations.

In the final analysis, the work on Golden Mountain must be completed, so that there may be greater returns in the future, and some of the current risks and losses may be compensated.

This is enough, and there is nothing unacceptable. The risks and losses are naturally controllable, so there is no need to worry.

Henderson packed up some parts and said, "Robert, we should be setting off. We need to hurry up."

Chen Ruobai nodded, "Let's go and do the next work. I hope there will be more discoveries this time, which will allow us to complete some tasks and indicators in the short term."

Henderson asked curiously, "Can I know what your expectations are for the next work? Find more gold mines? Or do we need to detect the overall mining area?"

Everyone knows this matter well. Some of the situations here in Golden Mountain are a bit special. The main reason is that everyone is looking for some 'low-lying areas', and there is a greater possibility of gold mines here.

Chen Ruobai joked, "Those things you mentioned are what I hope to see, and they are all my goals."

Henderson joked, "You have very high demands, but I'm not surprised at all. You have always had the highest demands."

Chen Ruobai had nothing to refute. In fact, he himself had some such feelings. His requirements for work are not low, and his appetite is constantly growing.

But he didn't think there was anything wrong with this at all. He was not aiming too high or setting a goal that was simply impossible to achieve, but a goal that he was certain to achieve.

There is still a certain difference here. Doing something that you are more confident about is also a matter of course. Wangshan's desperate situation should not happen to him.

Morgan also said, "I'm not surprised. You are the most successful gold digger, so you should have such requirements. This is in line with everyone's perception of your strength, and this is the correct posture."

Chen Ruobai shrugged slightly, with a hint of pride, "I think so too, I have enough strength, so I should indeed be better than others!"

This is not narcissism, this is seeking truth from facts. Of course, if you have enough strength, you can be more high-profile. Others' small achievements may be a failure for Chen Ruobai.

With Da Zhuang in hand, the three of them set off chatting and laughing. This time they just transported some supplies first.

After all, this is in a mountainous area, even if some small explorations and investigations have been carried out before, and a little planning of routes and so on has been done.

But things like prospecting are not trivial. Even if there is a drilling machine now, it can save a little effort and improve efficiency a little. But the parts and components that need to be equipped are not few.

Therefore, sometimes you need to send some things in advance to avoid running towards the bottom of the mountain when you need them. It is just a waste of time and energy. It is not a bad thing to prepare in advance now.

As for whether this will lead to some wasted work, some parts, etc. may not be used, etc., of course there are some possibilities, and such a situation will indeed happen.

But this can be considered as a precaution. At worst, I will just memorize it when the time comes, so it is not a big trouble.

For people like Chen Ruobai, what they fear most is not being able to find replacement parts when they need them, rather than worrying about having to move them up and down.

What's more, some of the parts and components shipped now are basically relatively consumables. These things are more likely to come in handy, so don't worry about it being a waste of effort.

Looking at the small bag on Da Zhuang's back, Morgan joked, "I prepared good dog food for him. This is what it should be. This is the best recognition of its hard work!"

Chen Ruobai said proudly, "Don't underestimate my Da Zhuang. He has rich gold mining experience. He is my earliest partner and one of the core members of this team."

Morgan joked, "Did I misunderstand? Javier and Ryan have always claimed that they were the earliest members of the team, and they both firmly believed that you were the best combination."

Henderson also said, "Nathan also said the same thing. The most regretful thing about him is that he is only the fourth member of the team, so he missed a good opportunity."

Javier and Lesnar are indeed the earliest members, Montgomery is just a little bit later, this is a fact.

However, Chen Ruobai still confidently defended Da Zhuang, "Dazhuang was my first partner, and I started looking for gold along the river with him. At that time, he was responsible for guarding and carrying some supplies. If If it weren’t for it, I wouldn’t dare go hunting for gold alone.”

Morgan looked at Chen Ruobai and said jokingly, "You are indeed bold enough. I heard them mention this matter. You dare to go to the wilderness to pan for gold and explore for minerals with your strength. You are crazier than we imagined!"

This is what Morgan thinks, and many members of the team also have such thoughts and opinions.

Others may not know the history of Chen Ruobai's fortune, but the team members basically know it. So many people didn't know what to say about him going out to hunt for gold alone.

This is indeed a daring guy. Without experience and without enough help, he dares to go to the wilderness of Alaska to pan for gold before spring has fully begun. This is simply the behavior of a madman.

And everyone actually understood to some extent that at that time, Chen Ruobai actually had no formal procedures, and he must have earned his first pot of gold from illegal mining. Everyone knew this to some extent.

But thinking about these things, I feel that Chen Ruobai is even more crazy. Even though he seems lazy now, in the past, he simply wanted money rather than his life, and he didn't think too much about risks and other things. This is not an exaggeration, because what happened in the past is some of the best proof.

Chen Ruobai said nonchalantly, "Really? I don't think so! Maybe it was because I was too poor at that time, so I could only try my best. And I always felt that I belonged to this industry. I was blindly confident at that time! "

Henderson said with approval, "You do belong to this industry. Everyone has this view. They all think that if you enter this industry earlier, you might have the opportunity to make more money."

Hard work, luck, and enough ability are the fundamental reasons why everyone believes that Chen Ruobai can succeed.

Everyone is naturally envious of his success, but everyone understands that they can only be envious.

Because jealousy is of no use at all, they may work harder than Chen Ruobai. But not only does he not have enough luck, but he also lacks enough hard power, so one can only envy his success.

The three of them continued to talk and laugh. They were already familiar with the prospecting work and began to understand more and more about some of the conditions in the Golden Mountain. Naturally, this meant that there were many things that they did not have to worry about.

At this time, the mentality can be completely calmer. There is no need to feel that it is a burden or pressure at all. Just talk, laugh, and start a new phase of work in a happy mood. Everything seems to be smooth and easy.

After more experience, you will naturally feel more comfortable. Even if many things seem to be numerous and complicated, people like Chen Ruobai don't need to spend more time thinking about them.

One by one, one by one, they already know the priorities and what kind of things should be done at what time. This is not difficult for them at all.

As a professional gold digger, these can be regarded as basic qualities. If you don’t have these experiences and abilities, you can’t expect to become a qualified gold digger, let alone achieve better results. .

Chen Ruobai is quite proud of his progress. He does think that he has done some good work.

Chen Ruobai is also very satisfied and recognized with the performance of his team members at work.

Everyone is making progress, and they are becoming more professional in handling work matters, which is definitely a good thing.

Just continue to maintain this high-spirited momentum and have a more positive attitude. Maybe the next work will be smoother and everyone's fighting spirit and self-confidence will be higher.

These can be regarded as some of Chen Ruobai's cognitions. He always feels that people are in high spirits when happy events happen, and everything goes smoothly. At the same time, you will also feel that good fortune and misfortune never come alone. When things go wrong, you may encounter some troubles one after another.

Chen Ruobai's current feeling is relatively good. He also has more confidence and confidence in this time's exploration of the Golden Mountain. He feels that it will definitely be a great success.

A comprehensive investigation of Golden Mountain has already begun. Next, we need to work harder and arrange many things properly.

Just as the three of them continued walking towards the mountainside, something suddenly seemed wrong. Da Zhuang suddenly started barking fiercely.

Chen Ruobai and the others couldn't keep calm now. Generally speaking, Da Zhuang had a relatively gentle personality, and everyone knew this. Its current reaction is so intense that something unusual must have happened.

Things like this must be taken seriously, and this is even a great reminder to people like Chen Ruobai, and it is a wake-up call for them.

Everyone may not feel that they are very familiar with the situation in Golden Mountain, and they may not have a complete grasp of many things, but everyone thinks that they are fairly familiar with the area in front of them.

Generally speaking, I basically didn't encounter wild beasts or anything, and I didn't see any more traces left by wild beasts. This naturally made people feel a little inert.

Although everyone may have some inertia in their hearts, many things are indeed taken lightly.

But after all, this is the wilderness of Alaska, and everyone actually knows what kind of situations they may encounter.

So no matter how careless they are, everyone is carrying weapons. Not to mention every time they go into the mountains to prospect, they are basically fully armed.

Henderson and Morgan immediately took out their weapons, and Chen Ruobai did the same. He immediately took the rifle in his hand, quickly opened the safety and got ready.

"Ahead." Henderson looked ahead and said to Chen Ruobai, "I don't know the situation yet. The trees there are indeed a bit too dense."

Branches, leaves, etc. blocked Chen Ruobai's view, so now everyone was staring in the direction of Da Zhuang's barking. It seemed that something was going on there and they needed to be dealt with carefully.

But when it comes to what kind of situation there is, Chen Ruobai and the others are not sure yet, and they still need to continue to observe.

Morgan said to Henderson, "Shoot and see what happens."

Henderson had no hesitation. This time they came into the mountains to prospect, not to hunt, so they were not afraid of disturbing wild beasts or the like, and did not care whether they scared them away.

So Henderson pointed the muzzle of the gun diagonally upward and decisively pulled the trigger. The crisp sound of gunfire also echoed in the mountains and forests. The movement was not particularly loud, but it was definitely not small either.

If it were a wild animal, it would definitely be scared away under normal circumstances.

If it was a hunter, he would probably respond in some way. In fact, Chen Ruobai and the others knew that the possibility of encountering a hunter was not high, most likely a wild animal.

The bushes in front of them moved slightly, and the wild beast seemed to have no intention of leaving at all.

You really need to be careful this time, you must deal with it carefully, this is an emergency!
