Chapter 120 Gold nuggets are found
"Then we will go up the mountain in a while to see if we can find more of these stones. If we are sure there is a gold mine, we will ask Uncle Geng to come over to discuss how to maximize the benefits." Su Mo said.
Lu Changzheng frowned, "Wife, it's snowing outside and it's very cold. Tell me where it is and I'll go by myself."
He was reluctant to let his wife go out to freeze.
"I can't tell you where it is, but I know the approximate location. I'll take you there. I'll wear something thicker so I won't feel cold if I exercise."
Lu Changzheng wanted to say that they could just look along the stream, but seeing the firm look in Su Mo's eyes, he knew he couldn't persuade her, so he had to agree. But when he went out, he insisted on giving Su Mo her military coat.
Su Mo grabbed a handful of White Rabbit milk candies, took the remaining pieces of egg cake, and filled a pot of hot water to take with her to have as lunch on the mountain.
Lu Changzheng originally planned to carry Su Mo on his back if she couldn't walk, but he found that although she couldn't walk very fast, her speed was not slow.
It seems that after this period of exercise, his wife's physical strength has improved a lot. I wonder if she is more resilient than before?
However, the more they walked, the more Lu Changzheng found something wrong, this was heading deep into the mountains.
"Wife, do you usually walk this far up the mountain?"
"No, I accidentally got lost that time, so I walked a little further."
The two walked in for more than half an hour, and seeing that Su Mo had no intention of stopping, Lu Changzheng silently took out his pistol and loaded it.
This is completely deep in the mountains, and you may encounter wild beasts at any time. It is only in winter now, when the grass and trees are dry, that it is easier to walk. It would be difficult to walk at other times.
His wife is really a heroine, worthy of being a woman who dares to walk on the mountain road in the middle of the night! When
spies choose their nests, they know to stay as close to the perimeter as possible, but his wife is different, and she walks inside vigorously.
Finally, after walking for about ten minutes, Su Mo stopped and pointed to the stream beside her: "It's here."
At this time, the stream was not completely frozen, but there was some thin ice in the flowing water, so the stones in the stream were still clearly visible.
The two of them kept searching along the stream, and they searched for more than half an hour, but they did not find any special stones.
Seeing that it was almost one o'clock, Lu Changzheng stopped the group and asked them to have lunch first because he was afraid that Su Mo was hungry. Lu Changzheng
picked up some dead branches and started a small fire, letting Su Mo roast them. Then he put the kettle on the fire to warm the water.
The two of them ate the egg cake with warm water, and each of them ate two pieces of White Rabbit candy.
Su Mo sat by the fire, feeling a little disappointed. After all, she had high expectations and thought she would definitely find a second similar stone, but in the end, she found nothing.
Lu Changzheng saw Su Mo's disappointment and quickly comforted her: "Wife, it's still early, let's look for it again."
As he spoke, he helped Su Mo shake the snow off her hat.
Just looking at the snow, it seems to be getting heavier, and it will not take long to search. It will take more than three hours for both of them to go down the mountain.
Su Mo nodded, and then took a branch to play with the snow on the ground. The snow was not thick, and she dug a stone out from the ground.
The stone was originally slightly embedded in the ground. After Su Mo dug it out, it turned over and the side that was originally underground was exposed.
On it, there were two golden pieces the size of soybeans.
Su Mo was also shocked. Was she possessed by the god of luck? She and Lu Changzheng looked at each other, and both of them had some disbelief in their eyes.
After seeing his wife's luck, Lu Changzheng didn't know what to say. Could this be the so-called "chosen one"? Lu
Changzheng held Su Mo and kissed her, then picked up the stone and walked to the stream to wash it.
After washing, the golden color became more obvious, and it was estimated that there were more than two gold beans inside.
Lu Changzheng handed the stone to Su Mo and said with a smile: "Wife, there is really a gold mine."
Su Mo was also very happy, took it and looked at it, and then handed it back to him to pack it up.
That's good!
If there is, the people around can climb up, and they have an extra layer of protection.
"Why are you on the edge?" Su Mo was a little confused, this place is a little distance from the stream.
Lu Changzheng explained: "It may have been washed down when the snow melted. In years with heavy snow, the water on the mountain is so heavy that the stream can become a river."
It just so happened that there was a heavy snowstorm here last year. His father even wrote to him and told him that he hadn't seen such heavy snow in at least 20 years.
It is very likely that it was washed down when the snow melted at the beginning of the year, and then there was spring planting. The adults didn't have time to go up the mountain. By the time they were free, the grass and trees on the mountain had already grown lush and they couldn't find it.
Only his wife was lucky. She found it after coming here once.
The two of them searched along the stream again. This time, they not only searched in the stream, but also searched along the edge.
After searching for more than an hour, the two found several gold-containing stones and even a nugget the size of a rice bowl.
There is no need to look for it this time. With the nugget, it is absolute evidence!
I will discuss with Geng Changqing when I get back to see how to operate it better.
Lu Changzheng washed and packed all the stones, and walked down the mountain with Su Mo.
It was almost three o'clock now, and the snow began to fall heavily. If they didn't hurry up, they would have to walk in the dark.
On the way back, Su Mo thought about Lu Yougen's matter, so she asked, "Have you heard about the second sister-in-law's father?"
Su Mo and Liu Yuzhi went to pay their respects yesterday.
No matter what the relationship was like in normal times, it would be wrong not to go when the sister-in-law's father died and they were in the same village.
Although Lu Guihua spoke in a weird way, she really didn't do anything out of the ordinary for Su Mo.
Lu Changzheng nodded. He saw it when he was sorting out the files.
"I didn't expect him to go this far." Su Mo sighed. In the end times, many people wanted to live but couldn't, but this one who could live chose to commit suicide.
"This is his own choice." Lu Changzheng actually despised this behavior. If he had the courage to do it, he should also have the courage to bear the consequences.
Fortunately, the commune's punishment had not been issued, and the people in the brigade didn't know about it yet, otherwise it would seem that everyone had forced him to death.
Maybe in the eyes of some people, face is more important than anything else, even life.
"I looked at my second brother's brother-in-law yesterday. He looked very immature and didn't seem to care about anything." In fact, Su Mo wanted to ask if that person had an intellectual problem.
Lu Changzheng sneered, "Lu Fubao has been spoiled since he was a child. It's not an exaggeration to say that he has everything he wants. I think my second brother might have another son."
"Not really? My second sister-in-law has a house in her family, and they just got their food. He's so old, he doesn't need my second brother to support him, right?" "
It's hard to say. I hope my second brother can be more sober by then."
If you get involved with this person, it's hard to say whether you can get rid of him in the future.
