Chapter 172 Excavator Gold Rush



In fact, Chen Feng never really understood how to use an excavator to pan for gold.

Since excavators don't have filtration systems, you still have to manually sift through the soil after you dig it out.

What's the difference between this and buying it directly online? It's just more fuel-consuming and time-consuming.

They studied it together for a long time, but they didn't come up with anything.

There weren't any experienced gold diggers or anyone I could learn from and exchange experiences with.

Chen Feng finally guessed that it might really be like plowing the land, where after the top layer of soil is washed away, the bottom layer of soil is turned up and washed again.

Chen Feng carried his things down into the pit and walked straight ahead without the system making a sound.

He climbed up the mound, wondering if there was anything of value in the soil that had been turned up.

After walking around for half a day, stumbling and sinking, Chen Feng's system still didn't react at all. Sure enough, this place had been completely looted.

Carrying the detector, Chen Feng carefully slid down the mound and stood on the ground.

After looking around, he decided to search the entire pit to see if there were any leftover goods.

Chen Feng walked back and forth in the pit until he had traversed the entire pit, but the system still didn't sound.

It's fair to say that spending money makes a real difference compared to not spending money.

Gold prospectors who didn't spend any money could just wander around the mines and go wherever they liked.

These gold prospectors who arrived in their excavators were determined to explore every inch of their newly dug area.

The terrain here has a slight slope. Chen Feng strode out of the pit, shook his head, and walked up.

It seems that finding a hidden gem is not so easy. Chen Feng just hopes that they haven't explored the whole area.

If Chen Feng explores all of these places, he will have to move on to another location.

After walking for about seven or eight minutes, Chen Feng was about to change direction and go back when the system suddenly beeped.

"bite!"

“There is precious metal within a four-meter radius of the host!”

Upon hearing the system's voice, Chen Feng stopped in his tracks.

"What, is this a consolation prize for me?" Chen Feng chuckled, picking up the detector and starting to probe.

As Chen Feng probed line by line, his detector soon emitted a sound.

There was still a lot of withered grass in the area, and when Chen Feng used his small pickaxe to scoop up the soil, he also dug up a lot of grass roots.

The soil here felt finer than elsewhere. Chen Feng dug hard, sending dust flying, which made him turn his face away, close his mouth tightly, and squint his eyes into slits.

After hugging it about seven or eight times, Chen Feng pulled over the detector and ran it over the mound of earth.

The detector beeped, and Chen Feng had already dug out the goods. He switched to a small shovel and began to work through the soil.

Chen Feng quickly found the goods, gently shook the shovel, and then passed it over the detector.

With this shake, the fine soil in the shovel fell like a waterfall, and when the wind blew, it all blew onto Chen Feng's thighs and pants.

"Oh my god..."

Chen Feng frowned and patted his pants. Why is the soil here like this?

After shaking it several times, Chen Feng finally found the goods.

The object had a dark yellow luster, but it wasn't very big, about the size of a small pebble.

Although he was covered in dirt, Chen Feng smiled and was quite satisfied with the harvest.

This gold nugget is probably worth around 500 yuan, which is pretty good.

Chen Feng put the gold nuggets into a small bottle. This small bottle, which had only been there for two days, was already almost full.

Chen Feng stood up, picked up the detector, and tried to walk forward. At that moment, he suddenly realized that the system notification had not disappeared and was still continuing.

"Um?"

A slightly surprised smile appeared on Chen Feng's lips. This place was a double-yolked egg?

He's already explored half of this area, so the rest will be easy to explore.

Carrying the detector, Chen Feng found the object's trail after two attempts failed.

"Ooh-woo~"

Chen Feng squatted down, put on a pickaxe, and slowly scooped up the soil, trying to gently lift the sand and soil.

After excavating a small mound, Chen Feng brought over a detector to examine it.

The detector made no sound, and the cargo was still in the pit. Chen Feng picked up a small shovel and began digging in the pit, shoveling the soil one shovel at a time.

This pit was quite deep; it took Chen Feng a while to dig and finally find the item.

This time, Chen Feng learned his lesson and didn't hold the shovel as high; he held it a little further away before shaking it.

After several waterfalls, half the soil remained in the shovel, and the goods were still nowhere to be found.

Chen Feng started rummaging through the shovel and quickly picked up a small piece.

Chen Feng took it and blew on it, causing the dust on the small piece to fall off and revealing its original dark gold color.

"Hey, not bad."

Chen Feng was pleasantly surprised. He hadn't expected that this double-yolk egg would be entirely gold, and it was even a little bigger than the previous one.

I'd guess it's worth around six or seven hundred.

As Chen Feng put the gold pieces into the bottle, he couldn't help but laugh out loud.

No wonder that gold prospector chose to dig a pit here; there's definitely a lot of stuff here.

Chen Feng stood up, packed his things, and prepared to continue upstairs. He habitually checked the system, only to find that the system notification had not disappeared.

This startled Chen Feng, who looked on incredulously.

"Oh, there's more?"

Chen Feng chuckled and continued probing with the detector.

This was the first time he had ever encountered a triple-yolk egg. It was quite outrageous that such a large place could produce three such eggs.

The detector hadn't even scanned half a line when Chen Feng's detector started beeping again.

Chen Feng squatted down and put on the small pickaxe, unconsciously guessing as he hugged it.

Could this be a piece of gold?

In a few quick movements, Chen Feng scooped up a mound of earth and probed it with the detector.

"Ooh-woo~"

The detector beeped, and Chen Feng had already pulled out the cargo.

He picked up a small shovel and searched the mound of dirt.

After turning over the soil several times, Chen Feng still couldn't find any trace of the goods, so he had no choice but to start shoveling through the dirt.

With a few shovelfuls, Chen Feng scooped out the goods.

He flicked his right hand slightly, and saw a small piece appear in the shovel.

Chen Feng reached out and picked up the goods, his smile somewhat wry.

"My God, it really is Sanjin?"

He himself never expected that three pieces of gold would be found in this place.

This piece of gold is worth about four or five hundred, so the harvest is quite good.

Chen Feng put the gold into the small bottle and glanced at the system with great anticipation.

The system notification disappeared this time, proving that Chen Feng had already cleared the area.

After tidying up his things, Chen Feng walked forward. He was about to say that this place seemed alright, but before he could even speak, the system notification rang again.

"bite!"

“There is precious metal within a four-meter radius of the host!”

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng's mouth slightly opened, and he stopped in his tracks. Looking at the ground beneath his feet, his smile gradually became unrestrained.

"This place is truly a treasure!"

Wow, no wonder people drive excavators here to pan for gold, this place really has something good.

Chen Feng glanced around the area casually, then picked up the detector and began working diligently.
