Upon closer inspection, a bright yellow oval shape appeared before the two of them.

"Holy crap, bro, is this gold?!" Lin Nian's eyes widened in shock, and he felt his breathing quicken.

"Yes, that's it!" Chen Feng rinsed it in the water, weighed it in his hand, and was even more certain that this was the one. He couldn't help but smile.

This looks bigger than the one I bought last time, it probably weighs about four grams!

Chen Feng was getting happier and happier as he thought about it, knowing it was at least a thousand.

Who would have thought that I'd come here to catch fish out of boredom, and instead of catching fish, I'd catch a piece of gold instead, haha.

"Hahaha, bro, we're rich!" Lin Nian had never seen anything so valuable before; he felt like he'd won the lottery.

Lin Nian's barely suppressed laughter reached the shore, causing the onlookers to stare in disbelief.

"What's going on? Did I find something online?!"

"Holy crap, it looks like they actually shipped the goods!"

"Chen Feng, what's going on?!"

A group of people spoke anxiously, and those who had taken a few steps were startled upon hearing the voices, then instantly ran back.

Song Hui looked back at the restless crowd and was startled.

Oh no, could this guy have actually found something?

Unable to contain his impulse any longer, he ran straight to the riverbank and stared wide-eyed at the two people laughing heartily in the river.

"What's going on? Did he really find something?" Song Hui quickly asked the people around him.

"How would I know? I just heard them suddenly burst into laughter, and Chen Feng was holding something in his hand." The people next to him didn't even have time to turn around before they spoke impatiently.

Hearing this, Song Hui's heart sank again. He was probably right. If they hadn't found the goods, they wouldn't be so happy.

Thinking of this, he prayed that the goods in Chen Feng's hands were not valuable, just a few silver coins worth ten or twenty yuan, or even a few dozen.

It definitely isn't gold; it's just going to sell for a few hundred dollars.

That's just how people are; sometimes seeing others make money is more painful than killing yourself.

Seeing this, Zheng Ping couldn't help but smile and shouted loudly to Chen Feng, "Fengzi, what did you find?"

Lu Dahai's face showed excitement. He hoped that Chen Feng had really found something valuable, so that he could sell two more cans of food.

Moreover, he was also filled with disbelief that there could actually be goods in a river that everyone frequented.

Moreover, so many veteran gold prospectors failed to discover it, yet Chen Feng, a novice, found it—that's just too absurd.

Is this fate?

With gold in his hand, Chen Feng beckoned Lin Nian ashore. With such a large amount of gold in hand, why bother catching any fish?

Besides, they've been soaking in the river for several hours; if they stay any longer, Chen Feng will be completely soaked.

As soon as they saw the two of them come ashore, everyone gathered around and started talking.

"What did you find? Show it to us."

"Silver or gold?"

"What does it look like? How much is it worth?"

Seeing the curious looks around him, Chen Feng didn't hide it. He couldn't hide it anyway, since he would have to hitch a ride with Huang Fei to sell it.

I simply held up the piece of gold and showed it to them.

"It's alright, probably worth over a thousand, and it's bigger than the one I bought last time."

When the gleaming gold appeared before them, everyone was instantly shocked, gasped, and their eyes even turned red.

"Holy crap! I thought it was just a piece of silver, worth maybe a few dozen dollars at most. I never expected it to be a piece of gold, and such a big one at that!"

"My God, Chen Feng, what luck you have! You found one yesterday and another today. You've struck it rich!"

"More than a thousand? My goodness! I work in the county town for a month and I only make a thousand yuan. You just lift a finger, grab something from the river, and you make more than a thousand?"

"How can there be such a huge difference between people?"

Song Hui stared at the gold, his eyes widening instantly.

He never expected that Chen Feng would actually find a piece of gold in the river!

How is that possible? How can there be gold in the river? Does that make sense?

Looking at that piece of gold, Song Hui was filled with deep regret.

Who exactly said there couldn't be gold in the river?

If he had known there was such a big piece of gold in the river, he would have come to pan for it long ago. Would it have been Chen Feng's turn?

He was so angry he felt like dying. Why did all the good things go to Chen Feng?

Zheng Ping grinned as he looked at the gold in Chen Feng's hand and said, "Holy crap, Fengzi, you're so lucky! This is bigger than the last piece of gold!"

"You're amazing to find gold in this place!"

"By the way, how exactly did you discover there was gold here?"

Upon hearing this, everyone around Chen Feng looked at him. Yes, who would bring a metal detector to the river for no reason? How did you find out there was gold here?

"Haha, we were lucky. We came here to catch fish today, and while we were catching fish, I saw something yellow. But when I tried to pick it up, it was gone."

"I refused to believe it, so I sent Nianzi to get the equipment. I wanted to see what this thing was, and it really was a piece of gold!" Chen Feng laughed heartily.

These words immediately dispelled everyone's doubts; no wonder there were landing nets on the shore.

So they were fishing and just happened to see it.

"Oh, that's just fate. You can even find gold while fishing. Who can you complain to?"

"It's because Fengzi has good eyesight. If I were acting like a novice, I would have let a gold brick slip through my fingers."

"Didn't you check again to see if there were any left in the river?"

Someone couldn't help but remind me.

They've already pulled up such a huge piece of gold; surely there's more than one. Even getting some silver would be helpful.

"I'm not going to explore anymore. My hands and feet are freezing cold and have turned white from soaking. If I keep soaking them, I'll be soaking my sac. One piece of gold is enough for me. I'm not greedy, haha." Chen Feng waved his hand and prepared to head home.

Some of the more astute individuals nearby, upon hearing this, immediately left quietly to go home and retrieve their equipment for further investigation, without even bothering to say hello to Chen Feng.

After all, the river isn't named, so it's only for you, Chen Feng, to explore, but not for me.

Whoever finds it gets to keep it, even if it was Chen Feng who discovered this place.

Song Hui rolled his eyes and quietly headed towards the village, intending to go back and retrieve the detector so he could make a fortune in silence.

When Chen Feng finally gets home and rests enough to come back, he'll probably be looking at the empty riverbed and won't even know how to cry anymore, haha.

Lu Dahai, who was standing nearby, chuckled and said, "Fengzi, you're in luck! How about you come to my shop to celebrate later and buy a couple more cans of food?"

"Haha, it's nothing, but I didn't expect you to come. Perfect timing, I have some work for you."

Chen Feng looked at Lu Dahai in surprise. He was just worried about not having a pillow to fall asleep, but Lu Dahai brought it over.
