Chapter 551

On the morning of the 11th day, everyone didn't wake up too early, and everyone's mood was also obviously not very good.

But thinking about it, it felt normal, because just yesterday, the golden rice in the stone bamboo land had already been dug out by everyone, and today, everyone had to go to the river to pan for gold dust, that is, placer gold.

But if you compare the efficiency of panning for placer gold with the efficiency of digging for golden rice, that is a real world of difference.

Before, when panning for placer gold, each person could only pan out more than 1.2 liang of placer gold per hour, which is to say, in a day, each person could pan less than 1.5 jin of placer gold at most.

And when digging for golden rice, everyone dug more than 3 jin per person per day.

Just this gap is simply more serious than a cliff-like decline.

Furthermore, gold is something where the larger the volume, the better the visual effect it gives people, but you have to shovel several shovels of mud and sand to harvest less than a grain of placer gold as big as a grain of golden rice.

How big this psychological gap is, that is really something you only know if you do it! Fortunately, everyone's harvest these days was not low, digging out nearly 300 jin of golden rice, and averaged out for each person, it could also be nearly 30 jin.

If converted into money, that's 120,000 per person, so although everyone's psychological gap was very large, everyone still had a very solid foundation in their hearts.

After breakfast, Wang An pointed to the two foxes beside him and said to everyone:

"I plan to go upstream along the river to wander around today, don't wait for me for lunch. After that, if this female fox comes over, whoever sees it, just throw it a piece of meat, don't forget, okay."

After Wang An finished speaking, the tail-less fox, who was eating meat with his wife, obviously squinted his eyes, but because he was facing away from everyone, it didn't attract everyone's attention.

Actually, even if everyone noticed, they wouldn't pay any mind to it anymore, because for all these days, everyone already knew about its inaction.

So now, the tail-less fox couple, except for Wang An who would always feed them meat and food, everyone was already used to their existence, but also ignored their existence.

After all, for the vast majority of people, a wild fox that cannot create value is of no use and is not worth paying attention to.

Feng Chengmin heard this and immediately instructed Wang An, saying:

"Be sharp, don't go everywhere, hurry back early in the evening."

Although Feng Chengmin's words were not long, only a short 17 characters, they almost said everything that needed to be noted when entering the mountains alone.

Be sharp, in reality, means be vigilant; don't go everywhere, means don't take risks; hurry back early in the evening, actually means don't be greedy for the dark in the evening, and must start walking back before dark.

Wang An heard Feng Chengmin's words and nodded with a smile, responding:

"Mm, don't worry, Old Aunt's husband, I can also be considered an old hand at mountain trekking, it's fine."

After Wang An finished speaking, Feng Chengmin said very disdainfully: "I'm not worried about you causing trouble, I'm worried about trouble causing you. You are a thing that attracts trouble, do you know that?"

Feng Chengmin's words were always stuck at the key point. After everyone heard it, they all burst into laughter.

Only Wang An sighed with a face full of helplessness; it was mainly because what Feng Chengmin said was really flawless.

All kinds of broken people and broken things could always accurately find Wang An, and wanting to hide was impossible; that would be strange.

After everyone laughed, Wu Dong smiled and said to Wang An: "Old Aunt's husband is right, you must take it to heart, you are our Gold Gang leader, everyone is still counting on you to get rich." Wang An heard this, laughed, and joked, saying:

"Then I must take it to heart, I must let you all have endless glory and wealth, hahaha."

After joking, everyone set off one after another to prepare to pan for gold in the river, and Wang An also rode a horse and walked upstream along the river.

Of course, beside the one person and one horse, there was also a tail-less fox following.

After walking for thirty or forty miles, when the one person, one horse, and one fox came to a large beach of scattered stones, Wang An called the horse to stop.

It wasn't that Wang An didn't want to walk anymore, but that the tail-less fox had made a sound.

Wang An looked back and saw the tail-less fox circling and barking beside a pile of scattered stones, looking very anxious.

Seeing this, Wang An's heart was instantly happy.

It was mainly because for this period of time, except for barking a few times at its den to its wife before eating, when it wandered around with Wang An, its mouth was like it had been sewn with thread; it didn't make a sound at all.

And now it barked, so it must have discovered something.

Not far away, Wang An directly flipped off the horse, tied the horse reins to a stone, and turned to walk toward the tail-less fox.

After Wang An walked to the tail-less fox, Wang An said to the tail-less fox with a face full of smiles: "What's wrong, buddy? Did you discover dog-head gold again?"

It must be said that Wang An's appearance at this time was as fawning as it could be.

If compared with Wang An's previous appearance, it would immediately make people know what is meant by "using people when facing forward, not using people when facing backward."

To tell the truth, Wang An's performance before and after had expressed the meaning of this sentence very perfectly; it was absolutely vivid and image-like, and not a single flaw could be picked out.

And the tail-less fox might have long seen through Wang An's face, just like it didn't hear Wang An speaking, not even looking at Wang An, and barked again at the place it was staring at.

Although Wang An was snubbed, he didn't care, squatted down, and began to use his hands to push aside the pebbles on the ground, and while pushing, he also checked the stones he picked up in his hand.

And the reason why Wang An would look at every stone was because the second piece of dog-head gold Wang An picked up was embedded in a stone.

Soon, Wang An dug a pit at the place the tail-less fox was staring at and quickly found the dog-head gold.

Seeing the unique golden yellow color of the dog-head gold, Wang An was still very happy.

But when Wang An happily dug out the dog-head gold, the smile on Wang An's face instantly disappeared, turning into a face full of gravity, and he subconsciously put down the dog-head gold, took out the big 54, and after loading it, looked around.

The reason why Wang An would be like this was because what Wang An was holding in his hand was indeed gold, but it wasn't dog-head gold, but a piece of truly pure gold.

The appearance of this gold was the initial circular shape after gold is melted and burned, and as a whole, it looked like a naturally polished pebble.

Of course, this was not the most important thing! And the most important thing was that on this piece of gold, there was actually, damn it, a bullet embedded! Why would such strange gold appear here? (End of chapter)
