Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 9
Lesnar and Devi felt that sleeping in the shack on the first night was really not good, but they also got up when the sky just dawned.

While making breakfast, Chen Ruobai said, "Our task today is to dig out the ore as quickly as possible. The faster the better. Few people come here, but we have to be careful."

After washing up, Devi said, "Understood, our mine is not big, we'd better pan for gold on the same day we dug the ore."

"This is also a smart approach. We have to wash mines even if we stay up late." Chen Ruobai also agrees with this statement, "Not to mention mobilizing everyone's enthusiasm, the most important thing is to avoid losses."

Once someone finds out, it's a big deal to leave decisively.If the ore is piled on the shore without washing, the loss will be heavy.

The three of them briefly discussed work matters, and then they started to act without delay.

Chen Ruobai, who put on his gloves, started mining, and the two novices, Dewei and Lesnar, also put into work.There is no technical content, just constantly digging ore, that's all.

"Now that three people work together, I feel that the efficiency is much higher." Looking at the ore that took half a day to pile up, Chen Ruobai said with a smile, "This is a higher workload than my previous few days. can get the job done here."

Leisner said, "Then let's wash the ore earlier in the afternoon, and it may take more than two hours to wash the ore here."

Devi looked at the ore sand greedily, with some expectation, "It would be great if I could find three ounces of gold, and I could get four hundred dollars."

This is also an expectation of everyone. If there is more harvest, that is the best news.

The work of mining is boring, and it is also a very tiring job.But when the evening is approaching, it is a bit exciting and exciting to start washing mines.Especially for Lesnar and Devi, who are washing mines for the first time, they are full of expectations.

Whether you can make money and whether you can have a good harvest, you will know the answer soon.

One person is responsible for picking the ore, one person supervises the ore washing tank, and the other checks the gold sand at the end of the tank. The efficiency is indeed very high.

"Stop for a moment." Chen Ruobai said at the end of the trough, "Stop pouring ore, I want to collect gold sand."

Devi immediately blocked the water diversion port, and Lesnar also took the time to clean the ore washing tank.Chen Ruobai carefully collected the carpet full of gold sand, and began to clean the gold sand and sand grains inside.

Lesnar looked at the layer of gravel mixed with gold sand in the keg, and smiled happily, "I saw a lot of gold!"

"You keep working, I'll start panning for gold." Chen Ruobai went to the river with a small bucket, and said with a smile, "Let's hurry up and work, it's going to be dark soon."

Although they really want to pan for gold in person and complete the last step of work, Devi and Lesnar also know that time is running out, and it is even more important to hurry up and wash out the ore.

Poured the ore into the gold washing dish, Chen Ruobai felt that such a professional gold washing dish was much easier to use than a frying pan.Gently swirling in the water, the impurities have reached the edge of the handicap, just sweep them out, don't worry about missing the gold.

Looking at the thin layer of gold dust in the notch in the center of the gold washing plate, Chen Ruobai smiled even more.One day's harvest looks good, at least there must be a guaranteed income.

"Twice more times, we will definitely gain more than three ounces today!" Chen Ruobai happily announced the good news, "Brothers, we are all about to get rich!"

Devi and Lesnar are even more excited, this can be regarded as a small start, everyone has made money.There is also gold here, which can bring you more income!

You just need to repeat the previous work, which doesn’t seem to have much technical content. Everyone has experienced this kind of work, and now they can be regarded as having some experience, which means that they are more handy.

After a whole day of busy work, Chen Ruobai and the others were also exhausted.Even if everyone is engaged in some manual labor, it is not easy now.

Rubbing his sore arm, Chen Ruobai just smiled, "Three ounces, our gain is more than three ounces!"

"I finally understand why so many people are digging for gold!" Lesnar also exclaimed excitedly, "My income today is more than five hundred dollars, which is a great income! I am 25 years old, but I have never Such a high income!"

Devi was of the same opinion, it was the best he had ever earned in a single day, and over three ounces of gold must have been worth a fortune.

Chen Ruobai also calmly said at this time, "According to our current work efficiency, we can still mine there for at most three days. Brothers, our high income will stop soon, this is not good news."

Lesnar and Devi also fell silent. They just made a fortune, but it seems that such high income will stop.They also know about minerals. There is only one narrow river bend, and it really cannot withstand longer mining.

At this moment, Chen Ruobai continued, "I want to start looking for new gold mines after mining tomorrow."

Dewei looked at Chen Ruobai curiously and asked, "Can you still have good luck to find gold mines?"

"I don't want to just dig the mines here and go back. I must continue to look for gold mines." Chen Ruobai said bluntly, "We want to make a lot of money, and there is obviously not enough gold here!"

Lesnar also said, "Yes, you can look for gold while we are mining. I hope you can bring back good news soon, but if we finish digging the gold here, we won't wait for you for too long."

Wait, that will definitely have to wait, and you can also accompany Chen Ruobai to look for gold, but obviously you can't wait forever.

Chen Ruobai also understands this truth, everyone's relationship is very good, but they don't have the capital to spend it all the time.

Especially in Alaska, where the winter is extremely long, it is necessary to make more money while the weather is still good.

Making more money is the fundamental reason why everyone is willing to engage in this heavy physical labor.

There were no other recreational activities in this wilderness, and they were very tired during the day, so everyone fell asleep quickly.After the rest, it is natural to put into the hard work again.

Lesnar and Devi were extremely excited because they had once again harvested three ounces of gold.Two days of gold panning gave them seven ounces of harvest, and each of them could get a thousand dollars in income, which is really not a small amount.

And if there are no accidents, you can still work for another day and a half. If everything goes well, digging out another five ounces of gold will not be a problem.That is to say, this time I went out to pan for gold, and the guaranteed income could be around [-] US dollars.

Don't say it's just four days, even a week, the income is really not low.

Chen Ruobai was not satisfied with his current income. After getting up early, he arranged some work, then set off with his back on his back and the dog on his lead.

He hopes to continue to work hard, as long as a new mine can be found, then everyone can be guaranteed a higher income.Now such a little income is not enough to see, and it is still far away from becoming rich.

Chen Ruobai is full of expectations and full of confidence, because he knows that he has the ability to find a new mine, and he has confidence in his ability.

Chen Ruobai only needs to continue searching for gold along the river, this is his job.

Walking in the river for a day, I also encountered several river bends, and saw occasional golden lights in the river.It's just that the golden light was too weak, it was nothing worth mentioning, which made Chen Ruobai lose interest.

"This feels a little bit wrong. Ordinarily this is a river channel, and the gold I found earlier was like sand." Sitting on the big rock, Chen Ruobai said to himself, scratching his head and feeling something wrong, "It is said that there must be gold in the upper reaches, The river was washed downstream by them, so there should be gold in this area!"

The reason seems to be that if there is no gold mine upstream, how can there be gold in the river.

But how to find the gold is another matter, and this is also the biggest headache for Chen Ruobai now.

Even if Chen Ruobai seems to have a special ability now, he can't guarantee that he will win every time, and he can't guarantee that he can find gold easily, it's not that easy!
