Chen Feng thought for a moment and then said, "How about this, you give me 175 in total, and you can keep the big gold nugget; I'm too lazy to carry it."
"One hundred and seventy-five..." the boss calculated in his mind.
That means the large gold nugget is worth 815,000.
Add another 15,000 yuan.
The boss hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "Okay, we'll do it your way."
"I'll transfer the money to you now." The boss asked for the bank card number and went to the back to transfer the money to Chen Feng.
About half an hour later, Chen Feng received a text message from the bank on his phone.
The bank card balance increased by 1.75 million.
The moment Chen Feng saw his balance, a wide smile spread across his face.
He was wearing a mask, so the boss couldn't see his expression.
"I received the money." Chen Feng nodded, his voice completely calm.
"Okay, come back when you have more stock," the shopkeeper waved and called out.
Chen Feng turned and left, and the boss couldn't help but sigh at his calm demeanor.
"What a character! To remain so calm even after making nearly two million, truly remarkable..."
Chen Feng got into his car, drove a little further away, took off his mask and sunglasses, and couldn't hold back any longer. He danced around excitedly.
"Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho, 1.75 million, holy crap, I made almost 2 million in half a month."
"This feels amazing!"
Chen Feng casually picked up a cigarette, lit it, took a deep drag, and felt incredibly refreshed.
Almost two million in half a month, which rounds up to five million, and ten million in a month.
Since I already have two million, it won't even take a month to save up ten million!
It seems I'm getting closer and closer to the gold mine; it's practically within my grasp.
After resting in the car for a while, as dawn broke, Chen Feng drove toward the address Xia Yingying had given him.
He planned to first investigate the situation and assess the facts before making any further plans.
Chen Feng didn't arrive at the place until after eight o'clock.
Just as Xia Yingying said, there were no other people within hundreds of kilometers of this place; it was just a vast wilderness.
Perhaps because no one has ever mined it, there are still some green plants here, but not many; most of it is sand and soil.
After driving the car inside, Chen Feng opened the door and got out, looking around.
"Such an inconspicuous place, how could there be a mine underground?"
Chen Feng continued walking forward on his own, intending to investigate for a while before making a decision.
After walking for about ten minutes, the system sent a notification.
I took a look, and there was a piece of cargo in front of him, at a depth of about 2.2 to 2.3 meters.
"This depth is exactly as Xia Yingying described." Chen Feng walked over to the object and stepped on it.
To dig this object out, Chen Feng had to use an excavator; it was unlikely he could do it by manpower alone.
The density of these things is so low that you only encounter one every ten minutes or so, which isn't even worth the cost of an excavator.
Chen Feng continued walking forward, and after about six or seven minutes, the system gave him another prompt.
There were two objects around him, one about 1.78 meters tall and the other about 1.45 meters tall.
Although it's a double-yolk egg, it still doesn't seem to be very good.
Chen Feng lit a cigarette, turned around, and continued walking.
There are definitely gold deposits here; even the shallowest ones are 1.3 to 1.4 meters deep, which explains why no gold prospectors have come to dig.
The probes can only reach a depth of 1.2 meters at most. Even if someone comes here, they can only go back empty-handed.
Just as Gao Xiaowen predicted, this place is indeed a mine, but it's also incredibly useless.
Given the density of this stuff, if Gao Xiaowen were to actually mine it, he'd probably lose everything, even his underwear.
Look at this mine, and then look at my own mine; they're simply incomparable.
As soon as I stood on my mine, the system went crazy, beeping non-stop from every angle.
Look at this mine, it's just one after another, like an old lady's teeth, so sparse.
Chen Feng could only say one thing to this: Young man, do you even deserve to eat beef? Do you even deserve to be called a miner?
This is still in its unmined state; it's even worse than an abandoned mine in the hills. If it had actually been mined, it would probably be a truly appalling sight.
Even if Chen Feng were to come, it would be like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Chen Feng wandered around for a while longer, but the goods were still scarce. He returned to his car and drove further in.
After driving for about twenty minutes, Chen Feng got out of the car to continue the exploration.
The cargo here is a bit better and a little denser, but it's still not enough to require an excavator.
After wandering around for half an hour, Chen Feng got back in the car and went to another place.
After getting off the bus and wandering around for more than 20 minutes, Chen Feng discovered that the density of this spot was not as high as the previous one.
Chen Feng got on the bus and changed seats twice more, but both times he shook his head in disappointment.
He sat in the back of the truck, smoked a cigarette, took a sip of water, and began to ponder in confusion.
Could this be the reason why Gao Xiaowen has temporarily shelved the matter?
It does seem quite reasonable; even they themselves wouldn't be interested in this mine, let alone a self-made millionaire like Gao Xiaowen.
But after thinking about it for a moment, Chen Feng felt that something was not right.
This mine has absolutely no mining value, so why is it called a "white elephant"?
Even a chicken bone should at least have some meat in it, but now it seems this mine is just chicken bones, with absolutely no meat at all.
There's only one possibility now: either I haven't found the real place, or what Xia Yingying heard is wrong.
In reality, this isn't a chicken bone at all; it's a chicken bone that nobody wants.
As for the possibility that Xia Yingying was playing a trick on him, that's not the case; she had absolutely no reason to do such a thing.
By sending herself here and making a wasted trip, she gets nothing but five hundred yuan less each day.
Of course, perhaps she found happiness...
However, Xia Yingying doesn't seem like such a bored person.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng decided to continue walking around and get a general idea of the place before making a decision.
Anyway, finding goods isn't difficult for him; he just wanders around casually, wasting a little gas.
This is why Chen Feng can afford to search for goods so extravagantly, even traversing every mine.
If someone else were to find the goods, they would definitely need to use an excavator to dig one pit after another, and then manually use a detector to search for them.
The efficiency and cost were simply disproportionate to Chen Feng's.
Besides, which gold prospector dares to say they can mine the entire mine? That would require a lot of fuel costs and time.
Only Chen Feng would do something like this, since a pair of shoes only costs a few dozen yuan, and Chen Feng doesn't want the money.
Adding the two together, it's roughly equivalent to having no capital at all.
And so, Chen Feng walked from place to place until it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.
The place he found, the densest of cargo, was barely big enough to warrant the use of an excavator; it wasn't nearly as big as he had imagined.
