Chapter 365 Let's test the waters first



"That's ridiculous. If I could get her to come, I'd have to play the emperor at least once."

This actress became famous for playing the Empress. Chen Feng even watched a clip from the TV series. She was incredibly charming, and the contrast between her delicate and scheming character was particularly outstanding.

"Let's go grab a bite to eat, then we'll rent an excavator," Chen Feng said, tossing the small business card aside and standing up.

The two went downstairs, ordered two dishes, ate and drank their fill, and headed to the place where they rented the excavator.

When Chen Feng arrived there, it was still the same boss. Although they hadn't seen each other for more than ten days, the boss still recognized Chen Feng.

"Hey buddy, you're here. How's the place? Is it any good?" the boss greeted him.

"Let's make do. This time, let's change the location. You know Xia Yingying's mining site, right?" Chen Feng asked.

"I know, where are you going to dig?" The boss nodded; he knew where all the mining sites were.

“I’ll try outside her, around this spot.” Chen Feng showed him the location.

The boss peeked out and roughly knew where it was.

"Oh, I see. Your idea makes sense. They've been digging inside for so many years. It's good to check the outer perimeter. Who knows, we might find something big."

"When do we need the excavator?" The boss looked up at Chen Feng.

"Just bring it to me here at five o'clock tomorrow morning," Chen Feng thought for a moment.

After thinking for a moment, the boss said generously, "Why bother with 5 a.m.? I'll take you half a day. I'll have someone bring the excavator over right now. What do you think?"

"That's great, thanks buddy, this saves a lot of trouble."

"I still want the one I had last time. I hope it hasn't been rented out yet?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.

"What, you've developed feelings for it?" The boss chuckled as well.

"This feels right for me," Chen Feng said with a smile, handing the shopkeeper a cigarette.

"Okay, no problem, it'll be the same one. I'll send someone to deliver it to you right now."

The boss took out his phone and called the driver, who quickly loaded the excavator onto the truck.

"The money has been transferred, please check it." Chen Feng transferred the money to the boss.

The boss gave an OK sign, and Chen Feng and Lin Nian set off together, heading towards the mine with the handcart.

Around 4 p.m., the two vehicles arrived at the mine site, and Lin Nian was eager to try.

"Brother, shall we start working now?" Lin Nian asked, carrying his tools.

"Let's dig a few and see. We'll head back at 5:30. It's very close to the mine, only a 20-minute drive." Chen Feng grabbed the keys and climbed onto the excavator.

He was always curious about the quality of the goods here, so he decided to buy a few to get a better understanding first.

Driving the excavator, Chen Feng quickly found the first spot he had marked. He got out of the vehicle to check the depth and orientation, then got back in and started digging.

First, dig the top layer of soil to one side, then remove the soil from inside and spread it out on the side.

After completing this series of actions, Chen Feng continued driving forward, while Lin Nian carried the items forward and began browsing.

"Ooh-woo~"

Hearing the sound, Lin Nian squatted down, picked up a small shovel, and started digging. After resting for several days recently, he felt like he had inexhaustible energy.

He shoveled soil into the air, and Lin Nian kept moving the detector back and forth.

After probing back and forth several times, the detector responded when Lin Nian lowered the shovel again.

He gently shook the shovel, and when half the soil remained in the shovel, he started digging with his hands.

Soon, he pulled a gold nugget out of the shovel.

The gold nugget was estimated to be worth over a thousand yuan. Lin Nian wiped it clean and tossed it into his bag.

The first one I saw today was gold; I'm so lucky!

He continued searching for the next shipment, while Chen Feng, driving an excavator, had already arrived at his second marked location.

"There are more than a dozen items here. Although there isn't much gold, it's still worth digging for."

Chen Feng calculated the approximate distance, started the excavator, and dug a large pit in no time. This thing was quite convenient.

He spread the mixed soil to one side. After time, Lin Nian now knows without being told where to dig and where to leave the wasteland.

After digging the hole, Chen Feng continued forward. He only stuck three wooden sticks in the hole; the third one contained the main goods, more than thirty pieces of merchandise.

Following his memory, Chen Feng walked for a while and felt he should be almost there, but he didn't see the wooden stick.

After circling around for a while, he still couldn't see it. Chen Feng was a little puzzled, so he got out of the car and carefully checked the direction.

Then, based on the location of the second spot, find the third pit.

As he walked, Chen Feng still couldn't find the location of the pit, but his system helped him pinpoint it.

He looked at the location of the pit, walked over, and found that the wooden stick he had stuck in it had long since disappeared, leaving only a lonely little pit.

It must have been loosely inserted and blown away by the wind.

It's fortunate that there's a system; otherwise, he would have had a really hard time finding this pit. The surrounding scenery is all pretty much the same, just a desolate wasteland, like a copy and paste. Where would he find it?

Back at the excavator, Chen Feng dug out this pit, which was as big as the other two.

After finishing the excavation here, Chen Feng glanced at the time. He didn't want to work late, especially since he was operating an excavator and it was a bit dangerous at night.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Feng got out of the car, intending to find another pit, dig it, and be done with it. He figured he could just finish cleaning up these four pits today.

After getting off the bus and walking for five or six minutes, Chen Feng found a spot.

There weren't many items at this location, only about a dozen, but seven or eight of them were gold, which really tempted Chen Feng.

"This is it," Chen Feng decided, then drove the excavator over and began digging a hole by manipulating the boom.

The soil on top was easy to dig, but the rocks down there were quite large, and the excavator couldn't go down immediately. Chen Feng peeked out, stretched the boom back, and pulled the rocks out from behind.

Looking at the rock in the bucket, Chen Feng raised an eyebrow and tossed it aside.

This huge rock must weigh at least two or three hundred pounds.

If it weren't for the excavator, I would have been docked a whole day.

Once the depth was right, Chen Feng scooped out the soil, spread it out to the side, and got out of the car.

After getting out of the truck and feeling around for a bit, he discovered that there was still one piece of cargo that hadn't been dug out. He carefully felt around to pinpoint the location, got back in the truck, and dug a few more shovelfuls before finally managing to dig out all the cargo.

After getting off the bus with his tools, Chen Feng prepared to start his shopping spree.

Holding a small shovel, he went straight for a piece of soil, digging it out without even looking at it.

Shovelful after shovelful of soil was thrown into the air, and soon Chen Feng felt that it was about time; the goods were already in his shovel.

He lightly shook the shovel, looked at the soil inside, and after shaking off half of it, he still couldn't see any trace of the goods, so he started digging with his hands.

After a few moments, he encountered a familiar sensation.
