Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 72

When Chen Ruobai returned to the camp, he saw Abigail wriggling to the rhythm of the music while packing up the ingredients.

Seeing Chen Ruobai coming back, Abby pouted towards the mining area, "The mine owner is here again, and he brought a fellow with him today. It seems that they are already considering breaking the contract, and now they are considering taking back the mining rights."

Although he knew that such a thing might happen, but when Dawson was in such a hurry, Chen Ruobai still felt uncomfortable.

"He thinks that our team's efficiency is too low, and the share ratio is too small." Chen Ruobai said angrily, "It's okay, as long as he takes out 20 US dollars, I will return the mining rights to him."

Abigail froze for a moment, and asked hastily, "20? Are you crazy? Do you think he would be willing to pay this money?"

Chen Ruobai smiled and said, "There are still two months left in my contract with him. According to the current gold mining speed and harvest, I can harvest 250 ounces a month, or even a little higher. Even if I leave it to him and the Mining Bureau We can also guarantee a profit of about 15 US dollars every month."

Abigail felt that what Chen Ruobai said was reasonable, but she was still worried, "But the agreement expires in two months, and then he can get back the mining rights without spending a penny. Now pay 20, It's definitely not worth it for him. Even if the share is increased, he can't earn 20!"

"Do you think this is his own gold mining?" Chen Ruobai explained, "It must be taken over by other gold mining teams, and the money is borne by other gold prospectors. Those people need gold mines with gold, and the mining area here is huge. Big, if they spend $20, they can work here for a year or two."

The construction period of one or two years is definitely no problem, but whether more gold can be found is another matter.

Don't say that Chen Ruobai intends to harm people, this is just a normal business model, he just made a transfer fee.

Panning for gold is inherently risky. Chen Ruobai originally only planned to mine gold here for about a month, and he thought there was only such a reserve.But such a thing is also difficult to confirm, everyone thought that there was no gold here, didn't Chen Ruobai still find it?
If Chen Ruobai gave up the mine, the subsequent gold panning team dug deep and found a rich mine, that is also possible.At that time, those people would obviously not give Chen Ruobai a sum of money, they would even be proud of their own smart decision, and maybe they would laugh at the stupidity of Chen Ruobai, an outsider.

In the same way, don't blame Chen Ruobai if you fail to make any money after spending a sum of money.It was just that the later gold diggers were unlucky and had poor eyesight. Naturally, Chen Ruobai would not hand over the transfer fees and information fees he got.

All of this is a normal business model, Chen Ruobai also feels at ease, this is not buying and selling by force.

While grilling the scallops, Chen Ruobai said in a low voice, "Tomorrow, let them think that I am going to explore the mines, and let them think that I have the right to choose."

Abigail immediately understood that now it is necessary to strengthen the determination of Dawson and the others, and let them willingly pay a sum of money.

If Chen Ruobai has a new mine, then given a reasonable price, it is certainly possible for him to give up the current gold mine.If there is no right to choose, Chen Ruobai will definitely continue to mine here with a shameless face.

Chen Ruobai really wanted to make a fortune, but he couldn't overdo it.

He always felt that there was no more gold here. If the drama was too dramatic and the quotation was too high, it might scare away these gold diggers.

After all, the gold diggers came to make money. If there is no profit, they will definitely leave.If an insincere price is revealed, maybe the gold diggers will leave, and it is entirely possible for Dawson to wait until the contract expires before looking for another home.

On the other hand, it is naturally a matter of time. If it is delayed for a month, it will be 'revealed'.If no more gold can be dug up by then, Chen Ruobai naturally doesn't expect to earn a transfer fee.

The sense of proportion here must be grasped well, too much drama may not be a good thing, there must be sincerity.

Some things are tacit, and now Roy is indeed in harmony with Chen Ruobai's gold digging team.It seems that he already has a next family, but now when he is working, he is also serious and responsible, and he has not lost the chain.

This is actually quite good, but Chen Ruobai also felt that he might have to consider looking for a new mechanic.

This kind of thing is also normal, iron-clad camps and flowing soldiers.The same is true for the gold panning team. It is normal to have some personnel turnover.

Let alone Roy, an ordinary employee, even Dewei and the others might part ways with Chen Ruobai due to interests, career, family and other reasons. These are very possible things.

There is nothing wrong with these, Chen Ruobai is quite open about it.It's probably because he has done a lot of work over the years, and he is actually used to these things, even a little numb.

Another new day has arrived, and Chen Ruobai's main job this time is to return to the town and contact his manager Thomas.He directly and decisively put forward his own request, and now he has to choose to directly buy the mining rights.

There is nothing wrong with telling Thomas the approximate location, but it does not necessarily mean absolute trust.Rather, Chen Ruobai knew that a manager like Thomas might not be absolutely reliable, but most managers were very concerned about word of mouth.

Once the word-of-mouth is gone, these industries will basically be completely eliminated.

The price of [-] US dollars does not seem to be low, but Chen Ruobai can basically accept it, as long as he wins the mining rights.

After finishing these things, Chen Ruobai was relieved.The new mine is now settled, which means that Chen Ruobai doesn't need to worry about not having a 'next home'. His team still has a mine to continue working and can continue to make money.

These things seem to be resolved fairly well, so another thing needs to be paid close attention to.The preliminary construction of the new mine also needs to be done well, and these also take some time.

Chen Ruobai, who was in a good mood, returned to the camp of the mine, and saw Dawson and a burly man giving advice.

Seeing Chen Ruobai coming back, Dawson immediately led the man over, "This is Robert Chen. Charles Yang."

Chen Ruobai smiled and shook hands with Yang, but he still needed to save face.

Yang joked, "I've heard about you, and everyone says you're the most successful and lucky gold digger in Fairbanks this year."

"Maybe." Chen Ruobai smiled triumphantly, and said, "I've panned out a thousand ounces of gold this year, and I'm qualified to compete for the honor of being the best gold digger."

Yang was a little envious, he knew more or less about Chen Ruobai's achievement.These things can't be hidden. Gold diggers have their own resources and connections. Many people have heard of Chen Ruobai handing in share and cashing checks again and again.

"If I work here, I can guarantee the output of 40 ounces of gold every week." Yang said about the situation, "My team has seven people, and I have three large excavators, two 1.9-ton ones, buckets The capacity is [-] cubic meters. One of my machines is more efficient than your two machines."

Chen Ruobai was noncommittal, but just said with a smile, "Then your cost will be even higher. If you can't find gold mines, your daily mining costs will exceed five hundred dollars, and that doesn't include the miners' salaries."

They are all thousand-year-old foxes, so let's not talk about Liaozhai, everyone knows many things by heart.

Dawson asked, "Have you made some new discoveries?"

"Yes, it's not in your territory." Chen Ruobai explained, "It seems that the effect is not bad, maybe I can continue to try. I am an excellent gold digger, and I can always find gold mines."

Dawson was not polite anymore, and showed his cards, "Our contract is only two months away, I can pay a sum of money, and you will return the mining rights to me."

"US$25." Chen Ruobai also cut to the chase, "I can earn this amount in two months. Without a suitable price, I won't leave, or you can take back the mining rights until the gold rush season is over."
