"I'll save some for you after I find some goods this time, and I'll make you a big gold bracelet."
Liu Ping laughed upon hearing this and shook her head.
"Forget it, a gold bracelet is quite expensive. I'm not in a hurry. We're short of money right now. You should save up the money for the house first."
The two quickly returned home. Chen Feng put the Yuxi cigarettes in his pocket on the table, opened a box, and took one out.
"Who gave you the cigarette? Your Uncle Shun?" Liu Ping asked, puzzled, when she saw Chen Feng's cigarette.
"Yeah, didn't you see him come into the room with me? He secretly slipped me a cigarette," Chen Feng said with a smile, lighting it.
"It wasn't easy for your Uncle Shun to save up these two packs of cigarettes; who knows who might have given them to him," Liu Ping said softly.
The next day, Lin Nian came over in the morning. Chen Feng was leisurely sitting on a recliner by the door, drinking tea.
"Brother, are you busy later?" Lin Nian asked.
"A while? Nothing seems to be happening. What's up?" Chen Feng thought for a moment before answering.
"If you're free, could you take me to the county town? My grandpa's run out of medicine, and they don't sell it in the village, so we have to go to the county town to buy it." Lin Nian took out two cigarettes and handed one to Chen Feng.
"Okay, let's go now, what's the rush?" Chen Feng stood up and said.
Chen Feng initially intended to just pull Lin Nian away, but after thinking about it, he decided to go back and bring the diamond-shaped block with him. He wanted to see how much Boss Bai would give for it.
After Chen Feng retrieved his belongings, the two got into the car, dropped Lin Nian off at the pharmacy, and then Chen Feng went to Boss Bai's shop.
Mr. Bai was fiddling with his gold jewelry in the display case when he saw him. He was a little surprised to see him so early.
"Hey, didn't go gold panning?" Boss Bai greeted.
"No, I brought a friend to the county town. By the way, Mr. Bai, I found a rare item. Would you like to buy it?" Chen Feng stepped forward and asked.
"What's so rare about it? I'll buy anything as long as it's valuable." Boss Bai became interested upon hearing this.
"Take a look at this thing." Chen Feng handed the diamond-shaped block to Boss Bai.
Mr. Bai took it, examined it carefully, and then went back to the counter to take out a magnifying glass to see if there was any interface.
"No, where did you get this?" Boss Bai asked in surprise.
"I found it online, where else could it have come from?" Chen Feng chuckled. Could it be that he stole it?
"My goodness, if this is natural, it's truly a rare find," Boss Bai exclaimed in amazement.
"How much is this thing worth?" Chen Feng asked.
"Well... it's hard to say. These kinds of collectibles always fluctuate too much. If you're lucky enough to find a big boss who likes them, you can sell them for a high price."
"If we can't find it, then the price might be lower." Boss Bai's words were hesitant, as it was difficult for him to make a price offer.
"If you're not in a hurry to sell, I'll look into it for you when I have time. If you are in a hurry, then sell it to me."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng braced his hands on the bar counter.
"If I sell it to you, how much can you offer?"
Boss Bai held the diamond-shaped block and pondered for a moment, then carefully examined it before speaking: "About 80,000, but this thing is hard to sell, so I can't give you too high a price."
Boss Bai knew that Chen Feng was currently panning for gold in the hills, and he also knew that Chen Feng must have inquired about other people's gold mines.
However, according to Boss Bai's idea, this item can only be offered for 80,000; there's no way to offer more.
"Okay, Mr. Bai, could you keep an eye out for me if you have time? If anyone is interested, just give me a call."
Chen Feng politely declined, but instead sold the remaining stock in his bag to Boss Bai.
"Okay, if anyone is interested, I'll definitely give you a call."
Boss Bai took many photos back and forth before taking over the other goods and starting to refine them.
The goods sold for a total of over 20,000 yuan. After chatting for a few more minutes, Chen Feng took back the diamond-shaped blocks and returned to his car.
Lin Nian had already returned to the car, and Chen Feng saw that he was carrying a lot of medicine in large and small bags.
That's how it is for adults; they're bound to have some age-related illnesses, but none of them are serious. As long as they have the medication, they'll be fine.
"Brother, shall we go home now?" Lin Nian asked.
"Let's go to the supermarket first and buy some food." Chen Feng was leaving in a few days, so he wanted to buy Liu Ping more food and fruit.
This had become a habit for Chen Feng.
The two went to the supermarket and went on a shopping spree. Chen Feng bought several large plastic bags of food, since the refrigerator was big now, so buying more wouldn't hurt.
When they got home, Liu Ping couldn't help but complain about how much he bought, saying that she couldn't possibly finish it all by herself.
A few days later, everyone had rested enough, so they decided to set off at five o'clock in the morning to continue the next gold panning.
This time, with the new equipment being so large, everyone was eager to try it out and wanted to know if this large detector, costing over six thousand yuan, was really worth that much money.
As usual, Liu Ping prepared breakfast for Chen Feng in the morning, and Chen Feng ate a hot meal before setting off.
The group drove leisurely out of the village.
Chen Feng is going to a paid mining site this time; he has already told them.
As usual, Chen Feng led the way, and they started by scavenging in the abandoned mine while waiting for news from Chen Feng.
They had never been to the abandoned mine in the small village, so Chen Feng had to lead them there first before heading to the mine site.
That spot is about 130 to 140 kilometers away from the abandoned mine in the small village.
Around 4 p.m., Chen Feng was walking on the road when he suddenly realized that Huang Fei had disappeared from behind him as soon as he turned a corner.
"Um?"
Chen Feng frowned slightly as he looked in the rearview mirror, thinking that someone on their side probably needed to use the restroom, so they stopped the car.
Chen Feng slowed down, preparing to wait for Huang Fei to catch up.
Only a dozen minutes passed, and Huang Fei still hadn't caught up. Chen Feng became increasingly puzzled, so he called Huang Fei.
"Hey, what are you doing? Why aren't you coming up yet?"
"Damn, I was wondering why you ran so fast. I ran 120 miles and still couldn't catch you. Are you trying to fly?" Huang Fei said, quite speechless.
Chen Feng looked at his car, which was traveling at a speed of 30 or 40 kilometers per hour, and fell silent for a moment. He then spoke to the person on the other end of the phone, puzzled.
"Dude, I've never driven over 50, you've got the wrong route, haven't you?"
After these words, Huang Fei was silent for a few seconds before bursting out with extremely annoyed voice.
"Damn it, I got carried away and forgot we were going to a new place. I was driving towards the abandoned mine in the hills!"
"Damn it, wait for me a minute and send me your location."
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng couldn't help but rub his face, parked his car on the side of the road, and sent his location to Huang Fei.
"Okay, wait for me, I'll be right there." Huang Fei hung up the phone hastily, probably turning around and chasing after him.
"What kind of drivers are these?" Chen Feng sighed, lighting a cigarette with a helpless expression.
You're quite something to be able to get your own backside wrong.
About twenty minutes later, Huang Fei finally caught up.
"Damn it, Fengzi, you're lucky you called me, otherwise I would have already driven straight there." Huang Fei rolled down the car window, not even daring to look at himself.
