Chapter 652 Deception
The staff member was laughing as he spoke, and the people who heard him were dumbfounded.
"What the heck, a gold mine?"
"Holy crap, is this for real? They actually found a gold mine?"
"Holy crap, hahaha, this is absolutely outrageous! How did they even find a gold mine?"
"This is hilarious! It's like God is sending money to us. This gold mine is huge!"
"We don't know yet; we'll have to wait for the test results of the remaining piles."
Li Guanghao walked over at this moment, and his heart skipped a beat when he heard the news about the gold mine. He quickly stepped forward to confirm.
"What's going on? Did they find a gold mine?"
"Yeah, isn't it funny? We didn't find any rare earth deposits, but we ended up finding a gold mine instead," the man replied with a laugh.
Upon hearing this answer, Li Guanghao couldn't help but take a deep breath and subconsciously turned to look at Chen Feng, who was leaning back in his chair.
Damn it, I knew this kid must have known all along, otherwise he would never have suddenly blurted out something like that!
A gold mine? Holy crap, that's outrageous.
The news spread quickly, and Zhang Richeng was also puzzled when he heard it.
They were looking for rare earth elements, but they ended up finding a gold mine instead, damn it.
Chen Feng sat by the campsite, leisurely enjoying the breeze and listening to music, completely ignoring the chaotic atmosphere over there. He already knew what the outcome would be, so why bother going?
Qi Minglin, carrying this news, couldn't wait to find Chen Feng.
"Chen Feng, the test results are in. Guess what it is?"
Qi Minglin felt that Chen Feng would never guess what they had discovered.
"I don't know, rare earth elements?" Chen Feng took a deep breath and asked listlessly.
"No, it's a gold mine, hahaha!"
"We didn't find any rare earth elements, but we unexpectedly found a gold mine. It's hilarious!" Qi Minglin sat on the ground, laughing uncontrollably.
Upon hearing this, Chen Feng simply responded with an "oh," saying rather perfunctorily, "Wow, we actually found a gold mine, what a coincidence."
"Don't forget my 10%; I really made a profit this time."
Upon hearing this, Qi Minglin's laughter stopped abruptly, and a terrible expression appeared in her eyes.
She didn't consult with her superiors at all; she made the decision on her own.
I thought it was just a carrot hanging in front of the donkey, but to my surprise, the donkey suddenly lunged forward and ate the carrot! Isn't that a disaster?
"Chen Feng, can we talk about this? You don't really need that 5%..." Qi Minglin said weakly.
"Of course I'm short of funds. My bank account isn't even full yet, so of course I'm short of funds," Chen Feng said quietly.
Qi Minglin: "..."
Your bank card is full? Are you even speaking human language? There's no such thing as a fully full bank card!
Just as she was hesitating, it suddenly dawned on her that something was wrong.
Chen Feng had never mentioned increasing the profit sharing before, so why did he bring it up suddenly this time? Could it be that he already guessed something?
"You, you deliberately tricked me that day!" Qi Minglin said angrily as she stood up after realizing what had happened.
"No way, I didn't. How would I know what's down there? I can only say I had foresight." Chen Feng changed the song and comfortably lit a cigarette.
"Hmph." Qi Minglin didn't believe him at all. She glared at him and took her phone to the side to make a call.
Since things have come to this, what else can we do but discuss it?
"Boss, the pile driving samples have arrived, and we've made a new discovery," Qi Minglin said.
"Oh, tell me quickly, what new discoveries have you made? Is it rare earth?" Zhang Ce perked up immediately upon hearing this and quickly put down the documents in his hand.
“Uh, it’s not rare earth, it’s a gold mine,” Qi Minglin said quietly.
"What the heck? It's not rare earth, it's a gold mine?" Zhang Ce was completely dumbfounded. What did this have to do with anything?
“Yes, it’s a gold mine. We’ve already determined that based on the samples. The question now is how big this gold mine is,” Qi Minglin replied.
"What a mess! Haha, how did we end up with a gold mine?"
“Okay, it’s fine. After all, who would complain about having too much gold? You guys have done a great job this time.” Zhang Ce also chuckled.
"Well... the gold mine isn't the problem. The problem now is that I didn't think of this back then, so I promised Chen Feng that if it was a gold mine, I would give him an extra 5% of the profits."
"Now that they've found a gold mine, what are we going to do?" Qi Minglin scratched her head and asked.
Zhang Ce: "..."
Dude, why are you making this wish? Five percent is already a lot, and you want ten percent? That's ten percent of equity, pure profit!
"You... what can I say to you? You can't follow his rules. He won't just spout nonsense without reason."
"What are you going to do now? You've already agreed, how can I say no?"
"Remember not to make that promise again, my goodness," Zhang Ce said, sounding equally helpless.
"Okay, boss, I understand," Qi Minglin said weakly.
She was indeed at fault in this matter, so she didn't dare to talk back.
After hanging up the phone, she became increasingly angry and went straight back to find Chen Feng.
"Chen Feng, you're being so unfair! Aren't we on the same side? You're even fooling me!" Qi Minglin said irritably.
"What are you talking about? Aren't we always in the same boat? How could I be trying to fool you?"
"When the gold mine is developed, there will be gold-plated silver or some other nice-looking minerals underneath."
"You can just secretly keep it yourself later, that'll be fine."
"Look, this is it." Chen Feng said, showing her a photo on his phone. Qi Minglin instinctively leaned over.
"Wow, this is pretty good. Is it real? Did they come from a gold mine?" Qi Minglin asked in surprise, fiddling with her phone.
After all, who doesn't like something shiny and pretty?
"Really, would I lie to you? Look at this piece, it was dug out of a gold mine, completely natural, absolutely amazing." Chen Feng showed her the old rhombus-shaped piece.
"Wow, is this really all-natural? It's so beautiful!" Qi Minglin's eyes sparkled as she looked at it.
"Of course, I know what I'm doing since I dug it myself. Just be careful when the gold mine starts operating again."
"If you find any good ones, keep them for yourself. It's fine, these things aren't worth much, it doesn't matter if you catch them."
“It would be great to keep this as a keepsake,” Chen Feng said, raising an eyebrow at her.
"Hmm, I'll keep an eye on them after a while. These things are really beautiful; they could totally be made into a pendant," Qi Minglin said expectantly.
"Okay, go back. You'll definitely find it later. I'll help you look." Chen Feng turned off his phone and waved his hand.
"Okay, sure." Qi Minglin turned around and happily went back to her tent.
"Hey, what did I ask Chen Feng for again?" Qi Minglin suddenly asked, puzzled.
