Soon, Chen Feng acquired a silver nugget worth about forty yuan.
"ah……"
When Chen Feng saw the silver grain, he slumped to the ground in despair and let out a feeble cry.
He was truly on the verge of collapse. All that effort only yielded a silver coin worth forty dollars, less than fifty.
What is God trying to do? It seems that since he earned a lot yesterday, he's taking some back today, isn't that it?
Chen Feng sat on the ground, took out a bottle of mineral water from his bag, took a big gulp to moisten his throat, and earned several hundred yuan in just one morning.
"You damn God, is this how you do things?"
It was already lunchtime, but Chen Feng didn't have much of an appetite because of the heat, and he wasn't very hungry, so he simply decided not to eat.
Carrying my things, I walked towards a direction where there didn't seem to be many stones.
There weren't many stones in this direction, just small pebbles. Chen Feng even spotted a steel bar pointing skyward with a curve.
Chen Feng went over and tried to pull it out, but the steel bar stuck in the ground didn't budge, probably because it was pulled out very deep.
Curious, he took out a shovel and dug around, but still couldn't pull it out, so he simply kicked it and left.
Now, not only Chen Feng, but even Zheng Ping and the others no longer care about scrap metal.
Not only are they heavy and difficult to handle, but they also don't fetch much money when sold.
After walking for about twenty minutes, Chen Feng's system beeped again.
He picked up a tree branch, drew a circle around himself, and then started probing with the detector.
When they reached the middle, the detector went off, and Chen Feng squatted down and took out a shovel.
"Digging and digging and digging in the tiny abandoned mine..."
"Driving a big Ferrari and living in a big house..."
Bored, Chen Feng suddenly remembered this catchy song and couldn't help but sing it.
After shoveling for what seemed like forever, another hole appeared in front of Chen Feng. When he tried to move the shovel through the soil again, the detector went off.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng shook the shovel hard this time. In the past, he would shake it down halfway before finding the goods, but this time he simply shook it down halfway and got it right in one go.
When Chen Feng shook half of the soil through the detector, the detector didn't go off this time, proving that the goods had already been shaken out by Chen Feng.
Chen Feng casually tossed the soil from his shovel elsewhere, then lay on the ground, stretching his head to look for the half-shovelful of soil he had just thrown away.
After looking around, Chen Feng found the grayish-white particle.
It's estimated to be worth around 40 or 50 yuan, which is a welcome surprise.
Chen Feng had already taken it all in stride and gotten used to it; he figured this was his fate today.
Chen Feng picked up the silver nugget and threw it into the bottle. He stood up, dusted himself off, and walked forward with the detector in his hand.
Half an hour passed, and Chen Feng had no idea how far he had walked, but the system still hadn't sounded.
He drank the mineral water in one gulp, then twisted the bottle left and right forcefully to compress the air before aiming it at a bush and gently pushing open the cap with his right hand.
"Bang!"
The bottle cap flew off like a cannonball, and puffs of white smoke rose from the bottle mouth.
What can you do if you can't find any goods? You can only entertain yourself; you can't exactly play on your phone.
Chen Feng tossed the bottle aside, picked up the detector, changed direction, and continued walking forward.
Twenty minutes later, Chen Feng still hadn't found anything. He sat under a bush to cool off, wondering if he could get a good night's sleep if he went back now.
After resting for a while, Chen Feng carried the detector and walked forward.
Twenty minutes later, just as he was about to head home and consider his day over, the system finally beeped.
"bite!"
“There is precious metal within a three-meter radius of the host!”
The system's voice stopped Chen Feng from going back to sleep, and he stood still and took a deep breath.
No wonder he wanted to go back to sleep; today was just too unlucky, practically the worst day he'd had since his debut.
Chen Feng drew a range with his eyes and then carried the detector to explore it little by little.
This time, another buff appeared, a buff that appeared just before turning back.
He remembered that there had been a few times before when he was about to leave, and then a large truck would arrive.
Hopefully, it will be the same this time.
When two-thirds of the area was scanned, the detector emitted a buzzing sound.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng laid the detector down, squatted down, gently drew a circle with his shovel, and then began to dig.
He just kept shoveling the soil over and over, too lazy to count how many shovelfuls he had to go on. He'd just keep going until he got to the bottom.
If the detector doesn't go off, he can calmly shovel for a whole day.
It can only be said that Chen Feng is now mentally exhausted, and nothing can affect his mood anymore.
Chen Feng didn't know how many shovels he had to make before the detector finally went off, revealing a rather large pit in front of him.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng rested his chin on his left hand, calmly looking at the shovel in his right hand, giving it a slight shake, and then passed it over the detector.
The detector didn't sound. Chen Feng continued to tremble, his eyes remaining remarkably calm.
After shaking the shovel three or four times until only half of the soil remained, Chen Feng brought the shovel closer and started digging it out himself.
After rummaging around for a while, he saw a grayish-white particle, worth about thirty yuan.
"Beautiful, I knew it would be like this."
"Damn it..."
Chen Feng's voice carried a hint of disappointment as he put the silver granules into the bottle and stuck the shovel into the side of his backpack.
He stood up, carrying the detector himself.
"Damn it, I'm not going to investigate anymore, okay? I give in. It's almost three o'clock now. I'm going back to eat and sleep."
"I'm leaving this damn place first thing tomorrow morning and getting a new spot."
Chen Feng even looked around carefully, trying to memorize the surroundings so that he would never come back to this place again and would avoid it at all costs.
After checking the direction, Chen Feng headed back. That's it for today. He didn't sleep well yesterday anyway, so he decided to go to bed early tonight.
He's starting to wonder if he's been affected by these guys' fumes, that they've brought him bad luck.
He was determined to buy a car when he got back, anything that could go long distances, even a three-wheeled vehicle. Chen Feng would rather spend the night in a three-wheeled vehicle than sleep with them again.
Even though we've decided to call it a day, who can be satisfied with not seeing a single item worth over a hundred yuan all day?
Even if he chose to go back, Chen Feng felt resentful.
After walking back for about ten minutes, the system notification sounded.
Although Chen Feng decided to go back, he wouldn't deliberately miss seeing the goods, just in case there really was one.
Drawing a bounding area with his eyes, and with a glimmer of hope, Chen Feng picked up the detector and began to probe little by little.
This time it was pretty fast; the first line came out right away.
"Ooh-woo~"
Chen Feng squatted down, picked up the shovel, scooped up a handful of material, and ran it over the detector.
The detector didn't respond, so Chen Feng threw the soil high into the air. This time, there was no headwind, so Chen Feng wasn't covered in dust.
Chen Feng shoveled again with force.
(Thank you everyone for the gifts. I see them every day. Thank you for your support and encouragement. Every gift you gave me has been a great encouragement. I am deeply grateful and thank you all again!)
