252. Chapter 252



Chapter 252

Jiang Qiao nodded vigorously and began to search for fun and delicious food nearby.

The girl couldn't hide her excitement. Lu Xun slightly curled the corners of his lips, and the strong possessiveness in his heart eased a little.

Today he was going to survey the mineral deposits with experts and several leaders of the National Mineral Bureau. The temperature on the mountain was even lower, so it was not suitable to bring Jiang Qiao with him.

But he was worried about leaving Jiang Qiao alone in the hotel, so it would be good for him to have some friends with him.

Thinking of something, he said, “When you go out to play, wear a down jacket.”

"Yeah, yeah, I get it..." Jiang Qiao nodded and muttered softly, "Butler Lu is Butler Lu, so annoying."

Annoying Lu Xun: “…………………………” No conscience.

When Ye Qingqing arrived, Lu Xun had already gone to the construction site.

At the entrance of the hotel, Jiang Qiao was wearing a short black men's down jacket. When she wore it, it covered her thighs. From a distance, she looked like a child who had stolen adult clothes.

Jiang Qiao saw Ye Qingqing in the car and waved to her happily with a bright smile. The layer of alienation and indifference on his body seemed to be broken, as if he wanted to melt all the snow around him.

Jiang Qiao is so pretty and bright, and Lu Xun really... takes good care of her.

Ye Qingqing took a deep breath, suppressed the depression in her heart, pushed open the car door, and smiled.

"Why are you alone? Where are Master Lu and Master Gu?" Ye Qingqing asked with a smile.

Privately, she was still used to calling Lu Xun "Lu Xueba", as if so many years had passed, but she was the only one still trapped in the ignorant middle school days.

Jiang Qiao didn't think much about it and said directly: "He went to work, and Boss Gu also went with him. Today it's just the two of us."

"I did some research around here and found an ancient building site with a lot of history. We can go take a look later," Jiang Qiao said.

"Okay, let me eat something before that." Ye Qingqing sighed and spread her hands: "I just drove and haven't had breakfast yet."

"Then I recommend you to drink Hu La Tang. The Hu La Tang here is delicious. It contains beef and king oyster mushrooms..." Jiang Qiao introduced, and the two walked towards the breakfast shop together.

With a "squeak", footprints were trampled out one after another on the snow, interlaced and connected. The mountain in the western town was steep. The older experts held trekking poles.

"This mountain doesn't look like it has any mineral deposits. No wonder no one has discovered it in all these years," the expert lamented.

If we hadn’t decided to develop this place into an economic tourism zone, we wouldn’t know when we would have discovered it.

Going further ahead, we can see a whole piece of blue fence in the distance. The nearest mine has been checked long ago and it is an ordinary coal mine, but it is rich in resources.

The expert took out a small hammer and knocked it, then with a serious look on his face, he asked his students to take out professional testing equipment.

The equipment was connected, and several experts conducted the survey together. A few minutes later, one of the experts suddenly raised his eyes, full of disbelief. In the anxious eyes of everyone, he showed undisguised surprise on his face: "Lithium, it's lithium ore!"

“……………………”

“……………………………………”

The air was quiet for a few seconds, and then all kinds of excited inquiries broke out. Everyone was talking at once, and the usually steady national leadership team was extremely excited.

In the crowd, Lu Xun's voice was clear and calm: "Approximately how many are there?"

Lithium ore is such a precious thing. It was surprising that it appeared on this uninhabited mountain. They were so happy that they forgot about the quantity.

No matter how precious lithium ore is, if there is only a little of it, it is not as good as a rich coal mine. The excitement in everyone's heart has passed a little, and they feel a little ashamed. They are not as calm as a young man in his twenties.

The expert drank some water and did not waste any time. The team walked further and further with the machine and continued surveying for more than two hours. Some people's hands and feet were numb from the cold and they kept stamping their feet to maintain their body temperature.

After nearly three hours, at 11 o'clock in the morning, the final result did not disappoint everyone's expectations. From the original location to the other end of the mountain, this endless line was almost entirely lithium ore.

"This is just a preliminary survey result. The terrain of the mountain is too complicated to be 100% sure, but it's almost certain," said the expert.

It was almost certain, but there was still some uncertainty, so several leaders decided on the spot to recruit workers to start excavation in the afternoon.

"Boss Lu, look at the bodyguards you brought with you..." The leader of the State Mining Bureau rubbed his hands and spoke incoherently.

The meaning was clear after he said half of it. He was afraid that there were not enough people for temporary recruitment, so he wanted to use a few strong bodyguards as labor, and they didn't need to be paid.

Lu Xun sneered in his heart, but his expression remained unchanged: "I have no objection, you can go and ask them what they want."

"Oh, by the way, each of them gets a daily salary of 2,800 yuan." Lu Xun added calmly.

Leader of the State Mining Bureau: “…………………………”

He suspected he had heard wrongly: "Daily wage, 2800?"

Are you sure it's not monthly salary?

"Yes, daily wage." Lu Xun's indifferent tone broke his fantasy.

The leader of the National Mining Bureau smiled and said, "Forget it, forget it. I won't bother Mr. Lu's people. There is a way, there is always a way..."

Less than half an hour after the announcement, a long line formed on the road next to the construction site.

Don't be too young, the upper age limit is 65, and you need to have a certain level of education and health certificate,

Those who pass the interview must undergo systematic learning, including theoretical knowledge, practical skills and safety knowledge, and pass the assessment before they can obtain a miner's certificate.

This would take some time, but the prospecting team couldn't wait that long, so after discussing it, they decided to borrow some miners from the nearest area.

So many workers finally arrived in the evening after a long journey. After a brief meeting to arrange tomorrow's work, everyone went back to rest.

After a busy day and freezing on the mountain for more than two hours, Lu Xun kept pressing his forehead on the way back to the hotel.

The man's face looked very bad. Gu Xing, who had been chattering in front of him, shut up under Wang Jie's glare, leaned forward and asked cautiously: "Brother Xun, are you okay?"

"Are you feeling unwell? There should be a clinic nearby." Wang Jie said, and asked Gu Xing to use his mobile phone to check the location of the clinic.

"There's a clinic around the corner. Do you want to go?" Gu Xing pointed to the location displayed on his phone and waited for a response, but he didn't hold out any hope.

He knew that every time Lu Xun was sick, he would just muddle through, sometimes even not taking medicine, just forcing himself to get through it.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xun was silent for a while and then nodded.

Happy holidays! The happy holiday begins again~
