Chapter 654 Ten Million Tons
“Survival of the fittest, there’s nothing left.” Li Guanghao squatted down and started rummaging through things.
"Hey, can this thing be eaten?" Chen Feng carefully picked up a cactus from the ground and asked.
Li Guanghao glanced back, then turned and said, "It's said that some cacti have a pleasant, refreshing taste."
"But my advice is still not to eat it, because you don't know if you're getting a cactus with a light, fresh flavor or one with a mushroom flavor."
"If it's mushroom flavored, you might see little people."
"Then let Qi Minglin eat it." Chen Feng nodded and threw the cactus on the ground.
After Li Guanghao finished testing the area, the two returned to the car and continued on their way.
"Stop, this place is nice." Chen Feng felt the view outside the window was pleasing to the eye, so he asked the driver to stop the car.
When Chen Feng got out of the car and his feet touched the ground, the system did not react at all.
"Damn, I've been tricked," Chen Feng thought to himself, casually kicking at the sand on the ground.
"Why does it seem like there's still lead content? Could there be a lead mine here?" Li Guanghao asked, puzzled, looking at the instrument.
Chen Feng didn't say anything after hearing Li Guanghao's words, but instead turned on the lead element in the system to prepare for detection.
Having unlocked so many elements, the ordinary ones were already unlocked long ago.
However, when Chen Feng opened the lead element, the system still did not react, which proved that there was nothing underneath.
Undeterred, Li Guanghao continued to probe around, trying to verify his idea.
"Stop looking, is some kid sharpening a pencil here?" Chen Feng asked.
Li Guanghao: "..."
You're such a hurtful person.
However, what he said was not unreasonable. Li Guanghao only detected a slightly higher level of lead at the very beginning, and then there was none.
"Let's go, which naughty kid is sharpening pencils here?" Li Guanghao put away his instruments and prepared to get in the car.
They continued their investigation until after four o'clock in the afternoon.
"Let's head back soon. We'll go back in another direction, and by the time we get close, it will be dark," Qi Minglin planned.
"That's fine, let's find another one and then head back," Chen Feng said, glancing at the time.
A few minutes later, Chen Feng signaled for the car to stop, and the two of them got out.
As soon as he got out of the car, the system's voice suddenly rang out. Li Guanghao was completely unaware of all this and was still squatting on the ground probing.
When Chen Feng opened the system, he found that this time it wasn't a gold mine, but a real rare earth mine!
Looking at the specific rare earth elements, Chen Feng was filled with disbelief.
Good heavens, I actually found it on my second day here! My luck is just too incredible. Maybe even God wants me to go home sooner.
With a smile on his face, Chen Feng took a few steps forward, wanting to see just how big the mine was.
He took a few steps forward, but the system still showed that the mine was full, with no empty spaces at all.
"Wow, this is really big. I estimate it must be at least 100,000 tons." Chen Feng took a few more steps and muttered to himself.
Seeing that walking wouldn't be enough to measure it, Chen Feng told Li Guanghao to get back in the car and drive a bit further to check.
"Wait, I haven't finished the survey yet." Li Guanghao gripped his work tightly.
"What's the point of exploring? Let's go!" Chen Feng joked, urging them on.
"Okay, okay." Li Guanghao smiled upon hearing this and got into the car with the equipment.
He thought Chen Feng was hungry and in a hurry to go home.
The driver turned around and drove back, but Chen Feng quickly stopped him.
"Hey, which way to go? Keep driving forward." Chen Feng leaned out and patted the driver.
"Oh." Upon hearing this, the driver turned the car around again and drove forward.
"What's going on? Are you feeling it again?" Qi Minglin asked upon seeing this.
"I don't know, let's drive a bit further and see," Chen Feng said.
The car quickly drove a few hundred meters before Chen Feng signaled it to stop.
Chen Feng got out of the car, and the system notification sound was still ringing. According to the system's detection, this area was still full of minerals!
"Wow...you've got some skills." Chen Feng said, quite surprised.
"Keep driving forward," Chen Feng said again as he got into the car.
Others don't know the situation, so of course they can only listen to Chen Feng.
After driving a few hundred meters further, Chen Feng got out of the car, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"It's still full! What's going on?!" Chen Feng thought to himself in disbelief.
Based on this distance and depth alone, Chen Feng could deduce that the rare earth content of this mine was definitely no less than 500,000 tons!
Most importantly, Chen Feng had a feeling that this was far from over!
In other words, 500,000 tons is its lower limit, not its upper limit at all!
This time, Chen Feng made a tough decision, got into the car, and kicked the driver out.
"I'll drive."
The group was shocked to see Chen Feng like this. What was going on? Why was Chen Feng suddenly acting so emotional?
Chen Feng stepped on the gas as soon as he got in the car, and the car shot forward with a roar.
Chen Feng walked nearly a kilometer this time. As soon as he got out of the car and his feet touched the ground, the system's voice still rang out.
"Holy crap..." Chen Feng stared at the ground beneath his feet, his eyes wide with shock.
One million tons—that's already a million tons of rare earth ore!
This means that China has been removed from the list of countries with poor rare earth deposits!
The total of nearly two hundred tons of rare earth elements is enough for China to be self-sufficient!
"Damn it!"
As soon as Chen Feng closed the car door, he slammed on the gas pedal again, this time kicking it for several minutes straight.
When he got out of the car again, the mine was still full!
"Fuck you..." Chen Feng muttered to himself in disbelief.
Two million tons as a minimum!
"Holy crap, bro, you're making me carsick! What's wrong with you?" Qi Minglin clutched her stomach and looked at Chen Feng in the driver's seat.
Chen Feng didn't say anything, and continued to close the car door. This time he continued to step forward. He didn't know how many minutes he drove. He opened the car door and got out. It was still full of mine!
The system was beeping incessantly, as if it were reporting an error.
Chen Feng felt a chill run down his spine; was this really true?
If this is true, Chen Feng doesn't even dare to imagine how big a rare earth mine it must be.
This time, he got into the car, turned it around, and drove to the side.
After driving for about five minutes, he slammed on the brakes, causing the people in the car to lurch forward. Qi Minglin, who wasn't wearing a seatbelt, almost hit her head directly on the windshield.
Chen Feng didn't care about any of that; he got out of the car and put his feet on the ground.
Beep beep beep!
Chen Feng rubbed his forehead as he listened to the system's voice.
For the first time, he realized what it meant to be wealthy but insecure.
Chen Feng felt that this rare earth mine was already beyond his control!
"Damn it, if you're going to say you won't come, you really won't come. But if you're going to come, why are you all here?" Chen Feng returned to his car, his eyes somewhat vacant.
When Qi Minglin saw Chen Feng return, she didn't dare to speak or disturb him, and simply fastened her seatbelt silently.
This guy's current state is terrifying; he looks like he's having a mental breakdown.
Chen Feng tried again, but eventually he gave up.
Chen Feng only knew that this rare earth mine contained at least ten million tons of rare earth!
