The first day of gold panning was to dig a hole with a shovel.
The second day is a repeat of the first day.
On the third day, the ore sand excavated from the gold pit was transported and crushed, and then went to the riverside to wash the ore sand in the river using gold panning boxes, buckets, dustpans and other similar tools.
This step of panning mainly takes advantage of the high specific gravity of gold, allowing water to wash away the sediment, leaving behind gold sand and gold shavings.
It is somewhat of a technical job. In addition to requiring experience and skills, it also requires bending over.
In addition, in the Northeast region, the river water in March is still chilly when you step into it.
Therefore, gold mining is a very hard job, and it is more tiring than ordinary coal and iron mines that produce a lot of ore.
The fourth day was to double-check that there was no gold in the previously dug pit.
Then under the guidance of Lao Jin Naoda, he changed his position and continued digging holes.
What follows is a repeat of the previous cycle.
"Dad, where did this old Jin Naoda get his fame? He couldn't have just taken advantage of the fact that there was a lot of gold in the golden ditch in the past few decades, just gave him some advice, and got lucky, right?"
After digging for a long time, it was always a waste of effort. Not only the metalworkers were impetuous, but even Zhu Chuanwen was not willing to do such useless work.
This old man is completely unreliable, nagging and deceiving. If you dig holes according to this person's instructions, you may not gain anything for a year.
"This Lao Jin Nao Da is indeed a lot worse." After Zhu Kaishan looked down upon Lao Jin Nao Da, he continued: "Wait a minute, when Dana Jin loses patience with Lao Jin Nao Da, I will take you with me.
Go dig a real gold pit."
At present, Dana Jin has no better choice and can only believe in Lao Jin Da's ability.
But if you can't dig out gold for a long time, you can't trust anyone wirelessly.
Wherever the metalworkers dig holes every day, they still obey the instructions of Lao Jin Naoda.
Dana Jin and Boss Jin bring their thugs with them every day to supervise the work of these gold husbands.
In addition to preventing people from being lazy and slippery, it is also to prevent Jin Fu from knowing gold in private.
"Oh, this thief, God, I don't want anyone to live at all!"
"Fathers, mothers, sons and daughters, you must hold on. Dad will go back when he finds gold."
"It's another disaster year, and one disaster year after another. How big of a family can you withstand such a waste of money?"
After work that day, Zhu Kaishan and Zhu Chuanwen came back from listening to a play in a tavern.
Then I heard bursts of wailing coming from the various wooden houses where the gold husbands lived.
"Lao Yan'er, what happened to all of this? Isn't it just another day of work in vain? What happened to all of you?"
Zhu Chuanwen asked Lao Yan'er, who had a sad face. He was just a little boss with no name and no status, and he had to manage the work emotions of his subordinates. In this era, it is really a special kind of humanized management.
"There is news from my hometown. This year is another disaster year. After the spring started, it has not rained as much as one day."
Lao Yan'er is a native of Shandong who came to Guandong, so his hometown is naturally Shandong.
Not all the Jin husbands who came to Guandong were like Lao Zhu's family. The whole family went to Guandong.
Many of them were just laborers for their families and made their way to Kanto alone. They were considered migrant workers in this feudal era.
After making money, take the money home.
It is easier for a man in his prime to break into Guandong than for someone with a family, and the possibility of breaking out is greater.
Naturally, it is impossible not to care about the weather in my hometown in Shandong.
"When did the news come? My dad and I didn't hear it just now in the tavern?" Zhu Chuanwen continued to ask.
"Also just now, someone received a letter from my hometown, as the letter said."
Zhu Chuanwen and Zhu Kaishan looked at each other. In addition to being a little happy, they were also a little worried.
Fortunately, last year, my family came from Shandong and no longer had to endure the drought.
What I'm worried about is that Lao Zhu's family is not without worries in Shandong. Many of their relatives and friends are still in Shandong. I don't know if these people can survive.
These relatives and friends all lent millet to Zhu Chuanwen to find a wife, but Zhu Chuanwen was still thinking about it.
"Collect it, there is no use being sad. All you can do is work more, dig more gold, earn more money, send it home, and help your family survive this disaster year."
In the face of natural disasters, people a hundred years from now will be quite insignificant, let alone this era. Zhu Chuanwen really cannot comfort these people.
After April, in May, the weather became completely warm.
The gold fields of various foremen in Laojingou can more or less produce some gold.
Only Jin Dana has been working in vain for more than a month, and not a single Jinmozi has been seen.
Dana Jinda finally didn’t have that much trust in Lao Jin Naoda.
His temper became much more grumpy.
The supervision of the gold husbands has been relaxed a bit.
These gold men were allowed to look for hills and places to dig holes.
I gave up the magic stick guidance of Lao Jin Naoda and looked forward to the luck of the gold husbands.
Zhu Chuanwen took a group of people and, under the leadership of Zhu Kaishan, changed to a mountain bag.
Only three pits were changed and it took less than ten days to successfully pan out gold from the ore sand.
It is enough to prove that He Laosi is much better than other exploration talents.
It’s not surprising that someone is jealous and hateful, and plans to murder someone. It’s too much to attract hatred.
He can also be considered a typical example of someone whose strength cannot protect his wealth.
"Dad...there is...there is gold."
The process of gold panning itself is not much fun, but harvesting a gram of gold sand is still very surprising.
Although it is just a few grains of gold sand or a bit of gold foam, its value is not much, and it is not as good as the "minimum living allowance" that the system signs in every day.
But the meaning is different. Although there are only a few grains in a basket, it represents a pit of gold and a vein of gold.
"Lao Zhu, have you found gold?"
Zhu Chuanwen exclaimed, and a group of about seventy or eighty people gathered around him.
If you find gold, you can still hide it from the foreman.
It's impossible to hide this from a group of people working together.
Therefore, Zhu Chuanwen did not choose to keep a low profile, and even deliberately attracted these people.
"Look." Zhu Chuanwen turned the dustpan outside so that others could watch.
"It's really gold sand. I found it in the gold pit you two owned, right?"
When Da Jinli saw the gold, his eyes shone directly and his hand stretched out unconsciously.
"Da Jinli, once your scar heals, you will forget the pain, right?"
Zhu Chuanwen slapped the hand stretched out by Da Jinli.
Wealth and beauty are not only charming, but also emboldening.
Dajinni, which has been honest for a long time, has shown signs of becoming more and more active recently.
"Brother Zhu, which pit did you get this from?"
Shunzi, who came from Shandong, felt that he listened to Zhu Chuanwen's words very much and had a good relationship with Zhu Chuanwen, so he asked Tao Jinjin.
"Uncle Zhu, can I come with you?"
Xiao Jinli was already Zhu Kaishan's follower, and he was looking for Zhu Kaishan.
"Brother Zhu, you two are so lucky. You are going to make a fortune."
Niu Dejin believed that he was a fellow villager of Yuanbao Town and a member of the Zhu family and his son, so he also wanted to get involved.
The gold is not only blinding to the big gold nugget, but also to others.
However, these people were more restrained and only opened their mouths to ask without taking any hands.
"Okay, stop chattering around and talk about what to do if the overseer is called in. We, father and son, will not live alone. If we have money, we will make money together. If we have gold, we will dig for it together. Don't do this. Just say something to me. I will take you there."
In fact, if you don't take it with you, the gold pit dug by a group of people is not that far away, and it is not difficult to find the others.
“Dad, we can’t just dig it by ourselves, why don’t we bring everyone with us to dig it together?”
After the first two days of excitement, Zhu Chuanwen said to Zhu Paoshan.
After discovering the gold vein, a group of people naturally acquiesced in not making any fuss, and the small group took the gold vein as their own.
I don't want to take other people to play, and I don't want to talk about whether I want to get rid of the gold.
Even if you hand over gold to Dana, you can get more wages in exchange for more gold.
Although it is selfish for people to want to strive for more benefits, it is also human nature.
"What are your thoughts on Chuanwen?"
"Report it to Dad Jin, otherwise it will be up to the ten of us to dig out as much gold as we can."
After discovering the mineral vein, Zhu Chuanwen and his gang worked very hard without Zhu Chuanwen's supervision.
However, the work efficiency of a dozen people cannot compare with the work efficiency of the hundreds of gold men under Dana.
"Let me think about it." Zhu Kaishan said, touching his chin.
"What do we have to share with Dana? Doesn't his life belong to us sooner or later? If we report it to Dana, we will let him work for us. Then we can also send more gold to Uncle He's family, which counts.
He is atoneing for Uncle He."
It has been decided to get Jinda, and naturally everything Jinda has belongs to Zhu Chuanwen.
Let Dana temporarily store the gold, it won't be a big problem.
"What if he hands it over?"
Working as a foreman in Laojingou, it was impossible for Dana to not hand over any gold he got.
It is impossible to contract a large mine and then work for a year and achieve nothing.
Governments are much better at sucking blood than individuals.
"Isn't that just right? It just so happens that we also confirm who is colluding with Dana Jin."
Finding out who Dana Jin was colluding with didn't go well.
This may also be the reason why Zhu Kaishan originally gave up investigating the behind-the-scenes incident.
"Okay, if you can find the person behind the scenes, a little gold is nothing."
Zhu Kaishan doesn't take money so seriously, at least he's not greedy, which is much better than Chuanjie.
Not greedy, just enough.
"I will hand over this certificate of nomination to Jinda. Send him this incredible wealth. If he doesn't lead me to my confidant, how can anyone else work for him?"
Zhu Chuanwen is going to go undercover. There are so many undercover agents in Lao Jingou, so it is indeed suitable for playing real Infernal Affairs.
"It's too dangerous, I'd better go." Zhu Kaishan said immediately, wanting to compete with Chuanwen.
"Dad, it's better for me to go. Can you just trust me? If I can't even fool him, Dana, how will I be able to travel in the world in the future?"
"Then try it. Don't do anything. Safety is the first priority." Zhu Kaishan patted Zhu Chuanwen with a solemn look on his face.
"I understand. Without further ado, I'll go get it from Jinda tonight."
If you delay for one day, you will delay the harvest for one day. Once the plan is set, Zhu Chuanwen cannot bear to waste it.
"What are you doing? You're still walking in. Don't you know this is where the big cabinet is?"
After finishing his work and returning home, Zhu Chuanwen went to Dana Jinda's office.
This person still has a certain sense of security and has arranged for a gatekeeper.
Many of the metalworkers lived in a wooden house, and Dana lived in a nine-room compound.
Not only can you live by yourself, but all the thugs have also been arranged.
People who do a lot of evil things are indeed more vigilant than the average person.
"I'm looking for the big cabinet."
Of course Zhu Chuanwen didn't take a look at a thug who was guarding the door.
"The cabinet is discussing something with Jin Baotou, please don't disturb me if you have nothing to do."
The thug waved his hand and said, although Zhu Chuanwen looked down on these people, in fact, these thugs were very domineering when facing Jin Fu, and they dared to use the whip even if they were not happy at all.
"Go in and report. You're delaying my important event. I'm afraid the cabinet will peel off your skin."
Zhu Chuanwen's imitation at this moment is like a golden grain, and what stands out is the villain's face when he succeeds.
"Zhu Xiaowen, right? Have you discovered the gold vein?"
Dana Jin is not a person without some ability. He can even be very polite to Zhu Chuanwen, a small metalworker, and is quite able to take things in hand.
Even if He Laosi had been involved in the Boxer Rebellion and was tricked by Jinda, it would not be unfair.
"This is the gold found in the past two days."
Zhu Chuanwen took out a cloth bag and said, "It contains the gold sand collected in the past two days. It's not much, but it's a proof."
"Since it has been discovered for two days, why are you reporting it now?"
Dana Jinda asked unhurriedly, with a gentle face and sinister eyes.
"Everyone was afraid that the joy would be in vain, so we searched for two more days to confirm."
According to the rules, if you find a gold nugget, you must report it to Dana.
But in fact, gold mining is such a hard work, and there are still people flocking to it, one after another.
A large number of people don't just want to earn a little bit of the foreman's wages.
The most attractive thing about coming here to hunt for gold and having the opportunity to hide gold secretly.
"It's not that I'm afraid of being happy in vain, it's that I've found gold and want to hide it privately!"
Dana Jinda slammed the table, suddenly stood up and asked.
Just because Zhu Chuanwen came in, Jin Biaotou, who was guarding the door, opened the door and walked out with a fierce look on his face.
"There's no way...impossible...absolutely not..." Zhu Chuanwen seemed to be frightened and replied with some panic at the right time.
Zhu Chuanwen's acting skills are actually not bad, at least he is much more professional than Xiao Jinli.
"Don't be afraid. It's normal to have some secret thoughts. Didn't you come here to report it? It doesn't matter. It's golden gold. Who can't be moved after seeing it?"
Seeing Zhu Chuanwen's reaction, Dana Jinda laughed twice, then turned gentle again.
It's not easy to try to look kind when you have a face full of anger.
"I was wrong. I really wanted to hide it myself at first."
Zhu Chuanwen lowered his head and replied in cooperation.
"Then why do you think of reporting now?"
Dana Jinda poured Zhu Chuanwen another cup of tea and asked.
"There is no future in being a gold digger. I want to make a lot of money working as a gold miner."
Zhu Chuanwen replied with excitement on his face, which was also driven by the greed for profit.
"Little brother, if you have an idea, I, Dana Jinda, will never treat you badly." Dana Jinda and Boss Jin looked at each other sinisterly and said.
