Financial crisis, big salary cuts, fresh graduates fighting fiercely for a job paying only 1,200 yuan. Fresh graduate Chen Feng couldn't stand the gap and became a loafer at home, smoking and d...
In this way, Chen Feng almost swung his small shovel away, shoveling dirt to the side, and the pit in front of him got deeper and deeper.
After digging down a third of the way, Chen Feng was exhausted. He threw down the shovel, plopped down on the ground, and panted heavily.
This shovel is actually only about the size of an adult's palm, because it's basically a gold panning shovel.
It was designed for you to find good deals, not for you to create traps.
Chen Feng was truly enraged this time; when he got back, he would definitely buy a big shovel.
Even if it's not the kind of shovel that's as tall as a person, it has to be the kind with a shovel head that's big enough.
Otherwise, if he digs like this every day, Chen Feng will be exhausted to death.
After resting for a while, Chen Feng picked up the small shovel again and started digging the soil with a laborious, laborious effort.
The deeper the pit, the harder it is to dig. At first, Chen Feng could reach it by kneeling on the ground, but later he had to lie on the ground, which was also difficult to exert, making the efficiency extremely low.
When they dug down to about 20 centimeters from where Chen Feng was, he sat up and rubbed his chest.
With the pressure constantly pressing down on him, Chen Feng felt like he couldn't breathe.
This pit is much larger than the previous one because it needs to accommodate three items at the same time.
If the previous pit was a size larger than Chen Feng's thigh, then this pit is so big that Chen Feng can actually step into it.
Taking a few deep breaths, Chen Feng prepared himself, stuck his head inside, and continued digging with the shovel.
During the last twenty centimeters, Chen Feng felt his chest go numb from the pressure, and it took him a long time to realize that it was almost done.
He took a deep breath, pulled the detector over, and began shoveling soil through the ground, one shovelful at a time.
Chen Feng had to dig seven or eight shovels to find the first one.
Upon hearing the detector's "whoosh," Chen Feng sat up, shovel in hand, and slowly began to shake off the soil.
After shaking it for a while, Chen Feng started to rub it back and forth.
He quickly found the item in the shovel, but after seeing its color, Chen Feng turned his face away speechlessly, unable to bear the sight.
The object was grayish-white in color, clearly a silver nugget, and much smaller than the previous ones, probably worth only seventy or eighty yuan.
"Hey buddy, what's this? Who are you? Where's your older brother?" Chen Feng frowned and questioned, holding the silver coin in his hand.
Unfortunately, the silver grain didn't answer him. Chen Feng threw the silver grain into the bottle in annoyance and picked up the shovel to prepare to get another piece of the goods.
He really wanted to say, "Damn, did I really stumble upon a gold mine? If all four pieces are indeed silver, then Chen Feng is probably going to have a mental breakdown."
Holding a shovel, Chen Feng stuck his head in and began sifting for the second piece of goods.
It took Chen Feng seven or eight shovels to finally get the goods out.
Although Chen Feng's intuition couldn't pinpoint the location to the centimeter, it was actually quite accurate.
The reason why Chen Feng needed seven or eight shovels to dig out the goods both times was simply because digging was too strenuous for him.
He didn't want to dig any further, even though it felt like it was a little short, but he figured it was good enough.
As it turned out, his intuition was quite accurate; he was indeed just a little short of finding the goods.
Chen Feng shook the shovel and checked the detector.
After shaking off about a third of the soil, Chen Feng started digging with his hands.
Soon, Chen Feng found the object in the shovel.
Upon seeing the color of the goods, Chen Feng finally smiled.
It was really tough. After digging all morning, Chen Feng finally saw some yellow.
This time it was a gold nugget, which Chen Feng estimated to be worth over three thousand.
If you were all this size, then Chen Feng's digging wouldn't have been in vain, would it?
Chen Feng rubbed the gold nugget, blew on it, and put it into the bottle.
Looking back at the huge pit he had created, Chen Feng picked up his shovel, pondered for a moment, and then tentatively jumped down.
To be honest, this pit was absolutely huge; it completely filled Chen Feng when he squatted down inside.
His head was just barely sticking out of the ground.
Chen Feng, who was squatting in the pit, suddenly shouted out of nowhere.
"Someone, cover the hole up!"
After shouting that, Chen Feng laughed at himself.
Luckily, no one responded to him. If they had, things would have been much worse; he would have been turned into a dumpling.
The pit wasn't very big; Chen Feng had trouble turning around inside. He stood up, adjusted his position slightly, then bent down, picked up a shovel, and began digging towards the third piece of goods.
At the bottom of the pit, Chen Feng slowly dug out a hole and moved closer to the object.
As Chen Feng dug, he suddenly frowned. He looked closely and wondered if he had dug off course.
After double-checking, Chen Feng realized he had indeed dug the wrong hole. He rolled his eyes and cursed himself inwardly.
How could the digging have gone astray?
Chen Feng adjusted his direction and dug down the shovel again, probably because the space was too narrow and it was difficult to see the direction.
This time they dug the right hole. They dug a side hole at the bottom of the pit, and Chen Feng used it like he was using a Luoyang shovel, scooping out a shovelful of soil every now and then.
Once he felt it was about time, Chen Feng pulled the detector over, scooped out the soil, lifted it up, and placed it on the detector.
If it doesn't go off, Chen Feng will throw it away. If it does go off, Chen Feng can climb out of the pit.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng had a feeling that there was something in his shovel, and after checking, the detector did indeed make a sound.
Chen Feng breathed a sigh of relief, first put the shovel on the ground, then stood up, crawled forward, and climbed out on his own.
Ignoring the mud on his body, he just wanted to see if the item was gold or silver.
Chen Feng picked up the shovel from the ground, shook it gently to remove some dirt, and then passed it over the detector.
After shaking it twice, Chen Feng realized that the cargo had been shaken out when it passed the detector again.
Chen Feng tossed the dirt out of the shovel and searched the ground for the clods of dirt he had shaken off.
Chen Feng quickly picked up a clod of dirt, squeezed it, and a golden color appeared. Chen Feng subconsciously smiled.
Yellow things really do make people feel happy.
After cleaning the gold nugget, Chen Feng put it into the bottle. This gold nugget was about the same size as the previous one and was probably worth more than three thousand.
Chen Feng carried the items to the location of the last piece of goods.
He looked at the flat land and couldn't help but grin.
This is really difficult; I have to dig another hole myself.
Sit down and light a cigarette. Let's take a break first. Even if you're an ox or a horse, you still need a carrot after you finish your work, right?
Chen Feng unscrewed the bottle of mineral water, took a sip, and then looked up at the sun overhead.
No wonder it felt hotter and hotter earlier; the sun was starting to heat up.
I can only say that it's fortunate we didn't discover this place in the middle of the day.
If it were discovered in the scorching midday sun, Chen Feng would definitely suffer from heatstroke, and he would have to take some Huoxiang Zhengqi Water and apply BUFF (a traditional Chinese medicine for heatstroke).
