The right side of the bumper had fallen to the ground, while the left side was still attached to the car, looking like a fallen plaque.
Upon closer inspection, Chen Feng discovered that the signboard and bumper were actually tied to the car with a shoelace.
The shoelace on the right side somehow broke and fell to the ground, which is why the bumper is drooping.
The shoelace on the left side, which is used to tie the shoe, is also broken in half, and it will probably fall off after a while.
Chen Feng was dumbfounded. He really didn't expect this thing could be used like this. It was like opening the door to a whole new world for him.
"Holy crap, this is really art!" Chen Feng said, gently shaking the fallen bumper.
While the car was shaking, Chen Feng noticed that upon closer inspection, there was a crack in the front bumper, and it was quite long.
Since there were no chips or anything, they stuck together very tightly, and you couldn't tell unless you looked closely.
There were traces of glue on the back, so the old man must have used super glue to stick it on.
Chen Feng didn't dare to move any further. He grinned and walked a little further away to go back and continue watching the fire and cooking, planning to tell the old man when he returned.
It was almost 6:30, and Chen Feng had already eaten a hot meal, but the old man still hadn't returned, which puzzled Chen Feng greatly.
What time is the old man planning to stop working? It'll be dark soon!
Meanwhile, Lin Nian returned to the camp carrying the detector.
Last night, Zheng Ping and the others told Lin Nian a lot about gold panning and precautions, which were generally similar to what Chen Feng had told him.
He kept in mind that even with GPS, he couldn't go too far and had to be back before 5 p.m., so he started heading back around 4:40 p.m. today.
When he walked back, Huang Fei was the only one lying in the driver's seat in the entire camp.
With Chen Feng gone, Huang Fei suffered. He no longer had a small bed to lie on during the day and could only continue to lie back in his driver's seat.
Lin Nian's day was generally good. Although the weather was hot and it was more tiring than farming at home, it was a fulfilling day with a great sense of accomplishment.
He really loved this feeling, and even after just one day of serious online shopping, he had an urge to do this for the rest of his life.
Back in the van, Huang Fei sat up when he saw him return and asked with a smile, "How were you feeling today? Were you able to get used to it?"
"I can adapt, it feels great." Lin Nian smiled happily, with a slightly naive look in his eyes.
"Okay, as long as you can adapt. I'm just worried that you won't be able to adapt. You don't know, when I first started panning for gold, I wasn't used to it and came back after less than a day."
"I didn't expect you to be so good."
"Let me tell you, I've been doing this for so long, I'm practically your senior. In this line of work, you have to be meticulous and have a good ear. You can't miss any clues."
"Any tiny buzzing sound could indicate a large shipment is hidden underneath, you know?" Huang Fei instructed in a tone of someone with experience.
"Yes, I know. I will keep Brother Huang's words in mind."
Lin Nian nodded seriously, keeping these words in mind.
"Hmm... just call me Brother Fei, or Da Fei is fine too. Calling me Brother Huang is too obvious and exposes my true nature."
Huang Fei, unusually embarrassed, corrected him.
"Okay, Brother Huang... um... Brother Fei." Lin Nian was a little confused and blurted out.
"Okay, let's rest for a bit. We'll go out and collect some stones to build a campfire later." Huang Fei handed a cigarette to Lin Nian.
"It's okay, Brother Huang... Fei, I'll go, you can rest." Lin Nian lit a cigarette for Huang Fei and was about to go out to pick up stones.
"Hey, wait a minute, let's go together." Huang Fei wanted to laze around a bit longer, but when he saw that Lin Nian was about to leave, he had no choice but to sit up and follow him.
Other people have been shopping all day, while I've been lying here all afternoon. If anyone should rest, it should be them, not me. How could Huang Fei let him go out and collect stones on his own? What would people think of me if word got out?
Since it was early, the two of them weren't in a hurry and leisurely collected the items. After they finished setting up the campfire, the others gradually returned.
"Lin Nian is back."
How was your day?
"Will you adapt? Will you be able to handle it?"
Everyone who came back made a point of speaking to Lin Nian first, asking about the situation. After all, this was his first time panning for gold, and they wanted to show him some concern.
"I'm adapting well, it's great, hehe." Lin Nian chuckled sheepishly.
Everyone is going to cook some rice today, and Zheng Ping will cook a stew.
Lin Nian eagerly took on any tasks that came his way, but when there was nothing left to do, he stood there somewhat awkwardly, appearing rather restrained.
"Come on, Lin Nian, sit down, stop busying yourself." Yin Xing noticed Lin Nian's state and beckoned him over.
He knew that this was Lin Nian's first time in an unfamiliar environment, and he was a little uncomfortable. He would get used to it in a few days.
Lin Nian sat down next to Yin Xing, and they chatted. After a while, Zheng Ping also sat down. The dishes were already stewing and would be ready to eat soon.
"How's it going for you guys today? I made over four hundred yuan today, wow, it's like I stumbled upon a gold mine, haha, one after another."
Yin Xing laughed heartily and asked everyone.
"I found a gold nugget today. I estimate it's worth over six hundred dollars. Hehe, I knew I was going to be rich. I found gold on my first day. Hahahaha."
Zheng Ping couldn't help but beam with pride and laugh when he brought it up.
"You guys are going too far! I made over three hundred today. I thought I had a good day and was going to brag about it to you guys."
"Who would have thought you guys would all be so tall, damn it," someone said, sounding annoyed.
"Haha, keep up the good work, and one day it will be your turn to be the big brother," Zheng Ping said with a smile.
"Lin Nian, did you manage to find anything on Taobao today?" a companion asked curiously.
Although this is Lin Nian's first time officially panning for gold and he has little experience, he should have no problem finding some goods; it's just that the harvest won't be as large.
"I'm alright," Lin Nian said with a sheepish grin, scratching his head.
"It's okay, Lin Nian, don't be discouraged. We all started like this."
"At the beginning, no one had any experience, but after a while, they understood what was going on, and it was only a matter of time before they found a lot of good deals."
"Don't be fooled by our high income; it's just a matter of luck. Sometimes things don't go our way."
"As long as you can find something, it's a good thing, right?"
Seeing Lin Nian's expression, Zheng Ping knew that he probably hadn't found much, so as the leader and senior of the day, he should encourage him.
