"Phew, wow, this is enough." Li Chunlai reached out and picked it up, then blew on it and said.
"Here's a brush. Give it a good scrub and see how big it is." Lin Nian handed him the brush.
Li Chunlai took the brush and began to scrub the gold vigorously, soon making it shine brightly.
"Fengzi, how much is this thing worth?" Huang Fei held it up for Chen Feng to see.
Chen Feng squatted by the pit and peered at the piece of gold.
"About four or five hundred thousand."
"Really? It feels heavier than that," Huang Fei said, tossing it around.
"Let's gamble something," said Li Chun, who was eager for excitement and didn't want anything to go wrong.
"I'll say it costs over 500,000 for a hot pot meal, do you dare to bet?" Huang Fei asked without any hesitation.
"It won't exceed 470,000. We'll weigh it in the spring." Chen Feng could already see Huang Fei's pained expression.
"Come on, let's open the scale and see how heavy this piece of gold really is." Li Chunlai took out the scale and placed the gold on it.
When that number was displayed, Huang Fei's smile immediately became somewhat dry.
"No, no, isn't the ground uneven?" Huang Fei said, reaching out to touch it.
"Hey, hey, don't do anything reckless, everyone's watching." Li Chunlai kept a close eye on Huang Fei, preventing him from touching the scales.
Since everyone has panned for so much gold, once the numbers are out, everyone can roughly know how much it is without having to do the exact calculations.
"I'll calculate it for you properly, it'll definitely be fair to you." Li Chunlai said, pressing the keys on the calculator.
"Look at this, after deducting losses, multiply by four hundred, it's a total of four hundred and seventy-three thousand. Holy crap, it really is four hundred and seventy thousand!" Li Chunlai was surprised even after reading out the number.
This is exactly what Chen Feng said; it's exactly 470,000.
"Holy crap, are you sure you're not mistaken? How could it be only 470,000? Let me press it again." Huang Fei took his phone and pressed the button himself.
“You can press it again, but it’ll only be this much, not much more,” Li Chunlai chuckled.
"Damn it, you must have guessed, how come you're so right?" Huang Fei looked up at Chen Feng, extremely puzzled, and asked.
Chen Feng didn't say anything upon hearing this, but stood up and presented him with a figure that required him to look up to him.
"Damn it, can we talk properly? Stop showing off all the time," Huang Fei asked, his face full of exasperation.
"Oh, Chunlai, next time let's find a place that sells Moutai. I also want to eat Wagyu beef, the kind that's sold by the gram," Chen Feng said, squatting down to discuss.
"Okay, I also want to eat Wagyu beef. I've never had it before, so I don't know what it tastes like."
“Yes, everyone says Moutai is delicious, but I’ve never tried it before. I have to try it this time. I want to see if Moutai is really that good.” Lin Nian said with a determined look.
"Of course, thank you for the treat, Dafei," Li Chunlai said with great anticipation.
"Hey, hey, hey, why are you talking about Moutai and Wagyu beef when it comes to me? Maybe you should just shut up and keep showing off..." Huang Fei was finally speechless.
"Look, I can't talk to you, and I can't stay silent either. You're really hard to please." Chen Feng shook his head, walked out of the pit, and the others also picked up their tools and climbed out.
Chen Feng lit a cigarette and walked straight ahead; there was another large shipment in this area.
Walking up to the top of the goods, Chen Feng stomped on it hard, then turned around and called Chen Jianguo over.
Chen Jianguo lifted the large bucket and slammed it down to start digging. The excavator he rented this time seemed to have some minor problems, making a lot of noise. If he were to rent one again next time, Chen Jianguo would definitely rent a better one.
Even with this excavator, Chen Jianguo was afraid that the bucket would fly off while it was digging.
Fortunately, although it was damaged, it was still durable and could not be easily flown out.
In this way, the pit was quickly widened, and several people jumped in.
Li Chunlai carried the detector and probed around, but there was no reaction below.
"Um?"
Li Chunlai probed again, but there was still no sound. He immediately understood what was going on.
Just kidding, he's not stupid, he can apply what he's learned to other situations.
"Brother Feng, there's nothing down there. Can you check if Uncle dug it out?" Li Chunlai called out, looking up.
Chen Feng was looking at his phone by the pit when he heard this, and his eyes showed some puzzlement.
What's going on? Why dig something out? If it gets dug up, do you think he wouldn't know?
That piece of gold is right there in the pit.
He put away his phone and looked down into the pit.
With just one glance, Chen Feng understood what was going on.
The item was on the edge of the pit, but Chen Jianguo was off-target this time and dug a little off course. Li Chunlai was busy sweeping the ground and naturally missed the item.
"Wait, let me see what's going on." Chen Feng said as he jumped down, took the detector from Li Chunlai, scanned it around, and finally lifted it up to scan the pit wall.
"Ooh-woo~"
The detector sounded, and the group stared at the pit wall in surprise.
"Holy crap, this time the goods were right by the pit?"
"They hid it quite well; they actually managed to evade my sharp eyes." Li Chunlai nodded in admiration.
"Give me a break, those two holes of yours don't even look alike." Huang Fei said, taking out a shovel and starting to dig into the pit wall.
The three men took turns digging holes in the pit wall to get through the soil, and soon a pit large enough to fit an arm appeared at the edge of the pit.
Lin Nian dug out a shovelful of soil and moved it around. When he thought about it again, he noticed that something seemed to be half-exposed in the pit.
"Hey, wait a minute, let me see what this is." Lin Nian squatted down, put his arm inside, and pulled it out while rummaging around.
"What, did you find the goods?" Li Chunlai asked hurriedly.
"It seems so, but I'm not sure." Lin Nian struggled to pull the object out, shook it back and forth forcefully, and finally managed to pull it out.
"Holy crap, it's huge!" Huang Fei was astonished when he saw the long, rectangular piece of gold after Lin Nian took it out.
"Holy crap, is this gold too?" For some reason, Li Chunlai had a strange feeling that the thing looked like some kind of object.
"Look at this, golden poop! Have you ever seen anything like it?" Lin Nian wiped the gold clean and laughed heartily.
"Seriously, it's quite comfortable to hold. This thing is really heavy. How much is it worth? It must be just as heavy as the one from yesterday," Huang Fei said, weighing it in his hand.
"I feel like it's about right, haha, we've made another million or so!" Li Chunlai was so happy he couldn't stop grinning.
Holy crap, when did making money become as easy as drinking water? Earning this million was way too easy.
"Come weigh yourself and see if it's as big as it was yesterday."
Huang Fei asked Li Chunlai to take out the scale, and they squatted down, wiped the gold clean, and put it on the scale. The three of them then looked at the numbers together.
"Let me calculate it. Subtract the losses and multiply by four hundred, and it equals one million two hundred and seventy-two thousand."
"Wow, this little gadget is worth over a million. If it were cash, I probably couldn't even carry it," Li Chunlai grinned.
