On the day of departure, at the city gate, Princess Rui and Sister Ye each held Qingtian's hand to see him off.
"Dad!" Qingtian shouted, and Prince Rui and Boss Ye turned around at the same time.
"You all need to be safe and sound. I'll be waiting for you at home!"
Hearing Qingtian say this, the two grown men's eyes instantly turned red.
Prince Rui came over and picked up Qingtian, saying, "Don't worry, look, your uncle the emperor has brought so many people with him. He will definitely be able to protect us, right?"
"Yeah!" Qingtian took a look at the well-equipped guard team and felt much more relieved.
Prince Rui held her and said a few words to her, then took the initiative to hand her over to Boss Ye who was watching eagerly from the side.
Boss Ye hugged his daughter and said, "When dad comes back, our little Qingtian will definitely be taller.
"I see the medicine you've been taking is working well lately. Can I get you some more Ganoderma this time?"
Qingtian shook her head repeatedly. She knew that if she wanted to get Ganoderma lucidum or something, she would have to wait until at least the second half of the year or even winter before she could come back.
She put her arms around Boss Ye's neck and whispered in his ear, "I don't want the Ganoderma lucidum. I want Daddy to find the gold quickly and come back to accompany me."
"Okay, Daddy will definitely come back as soon as possible." Boss Ye didn't bother to think about it at this time. This was not something he could decide at all, so he just agreed.
Prince Rui felt a pang of jealousy when he saw this, and he quickly jumped on his horse and urged, "It's getting late, let's hurry up and set off!"
So Qingtian returned to her two mothers and kept waving her little hands at the two people on the horse.
After leaving the capital, the journey was extremely difficult.
When Prince Rui and his entourage finally arrived near Jiapiqiao, it was almost the Dragon Boat Festival.
This was all thanks to the smooth journey, otherwise it would have taken even longer.
After arriving at the place, everyone rested for a day, and the next day they began to clean up the surroundings, set up camp, and set up wooden ladders to facilitate going up and down the cliff.
After arranging what others should do, Prince Rui took Boss Ye, Boss Cheng and several experienced men, tied hemp ropes around their waists, and slowly lowered them to the bottom of the valley, intending to explore the situation first.
It is now May, and the temperature at the foot of Changbai Mountain is gradually getting warmer, exposing the entire situation in Jiapiqiao to everyone.
The melting snow on the mountain seemed to have washed down more golden sand, making the river channel in Jiapiqiao appear particularly golden under the sunlight, even more spectacular than the scene that Boss Ye and Boss Cheng had seen.
Although he had heard Boss Ye and Boss Cheng's description of the situation in Jiapiqiao a long time ago, Prince Rui, who had been accustomed to gold, silver and treasures since childhood, was deeply shocked when he saw it with his own eyes.
Seeing the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but admire Boss Ye even more.
If someone discovered gold sand in the river in such a remote place, they would probably choose to return the next year and secretly pan for gold themselves.
It is very rare that Boss Ye reported this matter to the court without hesitation.
At that moment, Prince Rui even felt a little guilty, thinking that the official position he had given to Boss Ye was too low.
After I go back today, I must write a memorial and explain this matter to my brother the emperor. After the gold mine is mined, I must not neglect Boss Ye when rewarding him for his merits.
Prince Rui was still thinking about it when Boss Ye, who had already rolled up his trousers and gone into the water to dig for gold, suddenly shouted, "Look what this is!"
Everyone turned and looked at Boss Ye.
I saw him immersing both his hands in the river water, then he gathered his energy into his dantian and picked up a large stone.
It is not accurate to call it a stone, because it is a golden stone.
Boss Ye held up this golden stone high in the air, almost blinding the eyes of everyone present.
"Nug-head gold, this is nugget gold!" Someone finally shouted!
Then everyone was in an uproar.
They had never heard of or seen such a big piece of gold nugget in their lives.
"Such a large amount of gold nuggets must be at least two hundred taels, right?"
“I guess there might be more!”
"Do we even need to research this? There must be a gold mine in the mountains nearby! And a large one at that! Maybe it's the largest gold mine ever discovered in the history of our Great Qi!"
Before Prince Rui could say anything, the others who had been selected by the Emperor to help survey the gold mine were already excited.
Prince Rui looked at Boss Ye holding the gold nugget, and felt mixed emotions for a moment.
My brother the emperor said that Boss Ye has good luck, and it seems that he was not just saying it casually.
This luck is too good!
With so many people diving into the water to look for gold at the same time, how come he was the only one to find such a big piece of gold nugget?
But anyway, this is a good thing.
Not only was it a good start, it also made everyone more certain that there must be gold mines in the mountains. Most importantly, it immediately excited everyone who was tired from the journey.
The crowd, who seemed a little tired just now, were now eager to start digging the mountains and looking for minerals.
Prince Rui asked someone to climb up and find a scale to bring down, while observing the terrain along the river, preparing to ask people to come down and set up camp by the river.
At that time, some people will pan for gold, and some people will study the distribution of minerals in the mountains.
After Prince Rui had made all the arrangements, he pretended to be indifferent and walked over to Boss Ye.
The people who had originally gathered around Boss Ye to watch the gold nugget quickly dispersed to make room for Prince Rui.
There were countless hands on the gold nugget held in Boss Ye's arms. Everyone wanted to touch it and share in the good fortune.
