He held the shovel of soil over the detector, but it didn't go off. Chen Fengyang stood aside and dug another shovelful.
The second shovel shovel didn't make a sound, so Chen Fengyang continued digging.
It took about a dozen shovelfuls for the detector to sound. Chen Feng shook some soil off the shovel and continued testing the detector.
After shaking off half of it, the detector was still beeping. Chen Feng started digging and soon he dug out something.
Upon seeing the object, Chen Feng's eyes widened instinctively, his face beaming with joy.
It was a gold nugget worth four or five hundred. Chen Feng picked it up, blew on it, and beamed with joy.
"Haha, I got gold on the first day this morning, I'm definitely going to get a chicken dinner tonight!"
Chen Feng took out the bottle containing gold from his bag, threw the gold nuggets in, closed the lid, and happily stuffed it into his pocket.
Chen Feng bent down to pick up the detector and walked forward.
It seems I'll have to choose the location myself from now on. My luck is exceptionally good; at least it's much better than yesterday.
And it seems I've unlocked some unknown talent; a quick calculation this morning turned out to be true.
It seems that even if I stop panning for gold, I can still set up a fortune-telling stall at the train station and charge five yuan per person.
Carrying the detector, Chen Feng looked around aimlessly, trying to find a spot that looked good. But before he could take a few steps and choose a location, the system notification sounded again.
"ah?"
Even Chen Feng himself couldn't help but show surprise. So fast? Today?
He looked around, drew a range, and began to probe step by step with the detector.
This time we were even luckier than last time; the detector went off when it reached a quarter of the way down.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng laid the detector down next to him and pulled out a small shovel.
With one scoop, Chen Feng shook the shovel, wanting to test if his luck was really that good and he could shake the goods out directly.
Unfortunately, after several shovelfuls, Chen Feng still couldn't find the goods, and had no choice but to go back to the original method.
Let's just shovel the soil over one shovel at a time; that's the safest way.
Chen Feng shoveled up a shovelful of soil and tested it on the detector. The detector didn't react, so Chen Feng casually dumped it away and shoveled up another shovelful.
After about seven or eight shovelfuls, the detector went off, and Chen Feng subconsciously smiled.
He shook the shovel, ran it over the detector, and seeing that the detector was still beeping, he shook it gently again.
This time, without waiting, Chen Feng saw the goods that had been exposed on the surface of the shovel. When he saw the color of the goods, he unconsciously widened his eyes and opened his mouth slightly, even he himself could hardly believe it.
"My goodness, buddy, are you serious?"
Chen Feng's grin widened as he reached out and picked up the gold nugget. This one looked a bit bigger than the previous one and was estimated to be worth around six hundred.
Blowing away the dust stuck to the gold nuggets, Chen Feng was both amused and exasperated. Today was going so smoothly; he got two gold nuggets right at the start.
That's a thousand yuan in hand.
Chen Feng chuckled as he put the gold nuggets into a bottle, then picked up the detector and walked forward. "What a great day!" he thought.
After walking a few steps forward, Chen Feng saw two bushes. He felt a strong affinity for bushes now, almost like they were his go-to spot for farming treasures.
What should you do if you see bushes?
Of course we'd crawl through it! What, you think we'd go around it?
If others heard this, they would definitely think Chen Feng had lost his mind. Who would deliberately go into the bushes?
To this, Chen Feng could only say that he was young and didn't know the value of shrubs, mistaking flat land for a treasure.
Chen Feng, carrying the detector, waited expectantly for the system's response from between two bushes.
The system didn't ring this time, perhaps because not all bushes are fixed spawn points.
Chen Feng dusted himself off and took the dead branch off his shoulder. He wasn't disappointed; after all, the initial earnings for the day were already quite good, and Chen Feng was even satisfied.
Chen Feng carried the stone forward, kicking it away as he went. He was in a great mood, and the weather wasn't hot yet.
It's practically the golden age of gold mining right now; everything is in place.
In a few hours, the temperature will rise, and the wind will feel stuffy and hot, making it hard to stay irritable even if you're in a good mood.
After walking for about twenty minutes, the system suddenly beeped as we passed a small pothole.
It's called a small pit, but it's actually just that this place is a bit more concave than the rest of the area. I don't know why, but it looks like something huge stepped on it.
However, Chen Feng had not yet seen any mine shafts here, which made him quite curious.
Could it be that this abandoned mine doesn't have any tunnels?
Chen Feng hasn't explored inside yet and hasn't encountered anything there.
After all, the abandoned mines in Qiuling City are much larger than the one at home; the comparison is like the difference between a father and a son.
After scanning the area with his eyes, Chen Feng began to probe with the detector.
He could probably guess that the goods were probably centered around this pit, in a circle around it.
After all, with such unique terrain, it wouldn't be right not to have some valuables.
They continued probing line by line until the detector finally sounded when only two or three lines remained.
Seeing this, Chen Feng pursed his lips, squatted down, took out a shovel, and began to shovel soil.
This time, Chen Feng changed his method. Instead of shoveling it one shovel at a time, he shoveled it more than a dozen times in a row, piling it into a small mound next to him.
Then they pulled the detector over and probed the small bag.
The detector didn't sound, which meant the goods were still in the pit.
This saves an incredible amount of time. Digging a dozen shovelfuls in a row is much easier than digging one shovelful at a time and then passing it over the detector.
This time, Chen Feng scooped up a shovelful of soil and ran it over the detector. He estimated that he would soon find the goods.
The detector didn't go off, so Chen Feng continued piling up the small bag, and then scooped up another hole.
After about five or six shovelfuls, the detector went off. Chen Feng shook it slightly and then passed it over the detector again.
The detector didn't go off this time, which meant that he had shaken the goods out. Chen Feng couldn't help but throw away the dirt and lie on the small bag, searching back and forth.
After looking for a long time without finding where the goods had fallen, Chen Feng gently dug at the small mound he had piled up with a shovel.
Chen Feng quickly shoveled away a layer of soil and finally spotted the hidden cargo on the edge.
Upon seeing the color of that small particle, Chen Feng couldn't help but exclaim, "Whoosh!"
He reached out and picked up the dark yellow metal particle that shimmered in the sunlight, then wiped the dust off with his hand.
Chen Feng looked at the gold nugget in his hand with eyes full of surprise, he simply didn't know how to describe his current feelings.
