"Hello Mr. Zhang, what's the matter?"
After the call was connected, Jennifer's sweet voice came.
Zhang Jing was furious and was about to file a complaint when he suddenly thought of what Ding Jiaqi once said: be calm when things happen, don't be impulsive or anxious.
Thoughts flashed through his mind, and Zhang Jing's words turned into, "It's okay, I dug some gold, and I want to share the joy with you."
"Thank you for treating me as a friend, but I am married and Nayel is not at home. I cannot accept any invitation from you."
I feel like Jennifer is also green tea. She wanted to go on an adventure with her before, so she chatted for a few words and hung up the phone.
Sitting in the cab of the excavator, Zhang Jing thought quietly. Fortunately, he was not impulsive just now. He almost forgot that he was a treasure hunter and everything was about money.
The question is, how can this matter be turned into benefit?
blackmail? Asking for money?
No, it's too low-level. Not only is it illegal, it's also a bad idea.
At this time, a four-wheeled terrain vehicle came from the opposite direction, interrupting Zhang Jing's thoughts.
"Hello, my name is Terry Perkins." The driver of the Land Cruiser was a man in his fifties. "Are you the new landowner here?"
"Yes, is something wrong?"
Zhang Jing looked at the old man with a weathered face and asked, noticing that he had a pistol stuck in his waist, with the muzzle facing down at a 45-degree angle, and the safety was turned off.
"I have 500 acres of land, which is also a gold mine. If you are willing to buy it, I will be very grateful."
Zhang Jing couldn't understand, where did so many gold mines come from in this poor place?
'Mining' does not refer to a mine, nor does it refer to a mine, but a shovelful of earth and rocks dug up randomly, which contains gold particles.
There are always horses that can cover a thousand miles, but not Bole. Zhang Jing did not refuse directly. He got on his motorcycle and followed the old man to his territory.
Different from Gary's mine, the old man had a wooden house here, which was not large in size. It probably only had one bedroom, a kitchen and living room.
The key point is that the wooden house and its surroundings are taken care of like a garden by old men. They are very beautiful, with fences, fruit trees, flowers, stone paths, chicken sheds, duck houses, goose houses, and dog houses.
There is a small signal tower near the wooden house, which explains why Zhang Jing can receive Irina's message.
"Can I go for a ride on my motorcycle?" Zhang Jing asked Terry Perkins.
"Can."
With permission, Zhang Jing drove a mountain bike and wandered around Terry Perkins's mine. He seemed to be enjoying the scenery leisurely, but he was actually looking at the gold content underground.
The motor made a clicking sound, and it wasn't until Zhang Jing threw a dog into the mud that his face was scratched by the ground that he went back to find Terry Perkins.
When he heard the sound of the motorcycle motor coming back, Terry Perkins waited at the gate of the yard in advance. Seeing Zhang Jing's injury, he said, "I'll get you iodine and gauze."
"No," Zhang Jing stopped Terry Perkins and asked, "Why do you want to sell it? It can be seen that you have taken good care of this place. You must have spent a lot of time and effort on it. There is also a small waterfall to the north. , the natural scenery is not bad either.”
Terry Perkins looked back towards the wooden house and said in a complicated tone: "My wife is sick."
Terry Perkins must have loved his wife very much, because he also loved this land. The various exquisiteness Zhang Jing saw required a lot of time, day and night work and hard work.
"How much do you plan to sell it for?" Zhang Jing asked.
"Is 150,000 yuan too expensive?" Terry Perkins asked in an uncertain tone.
Gary's 1,200 acres of land, with no house and no meticulous maintenance, was sold for $270,000.
In comparison, Terry Perkins's quote of 150,000 yuan is not expensive.
In particular, the land and housing prices here cannot be compared with those in Seattle. It is like comparing the housing prices in Magic City with the counties in the Midwest. There are more than 100,000 miles between them.
After thinking for three or four seconds, Zhang Jing originally planned to chop the knife, but he was afraid that his conscience would hurt him too much. He sounded helpless and took the initiative to increase the price: "155,000 yuan."
Terry Perkins was weak and in an extremely depressed mood. He thought he heard wrongly. He suddenly raised his head and asked uncertainly: "Really?"
"Of course," Zhang Jing thanked him, "Thank you for your contribution to this land. I wish your wife a speedy recovery."
The old man burst into tears instantly, grabbed Zhang Jing's hand, and kept expressing his gratitude.
After the deal was concluded, Zhang Jing called Barbie again and informed her to come over to handle the transfer.
Before leaving, Terry Perkins made sure to give Zhang Jing two bottles of home-brewed mead. He was so kind but timid. Carrying the two bottles of mead, Zhang Jing drove his motorcycle back to the place where Gary and his family laundered their gold. place.
Tents, pickup trucks, and other belongings are all here.
Smarties immediately came around and were interested in the two bottles of mead. Zhang Jing slapped it hard and gave it a stern warning: "You can't eat the food given by strangers, and you can't drink the drinks given by strangers!"
While talking, Zhang Jing poured out the two bottles of mead. Do not throw the bottles around to avoid causing glass fragments.
Smart Dou was hurt by the beating, and he couldn't help but express his understanding by swallowing.
After all, he was the puppy he raised. Zhang Jing rubbed Smart Dou’s head again and rewarded him with a big steak.
As for the black panther cubs, they can only drink milk because they have no teeth.
After taking care of the wounds on his face and having dinner, Zhang Jing continued to dig for gold. For every additional grain of gold dug out, his bank account would have one penny more, which made him very motivated to work.
I kept digging until two or three in the morning. I was so sleepy that I couldn't bear to sleep.
The next day, Terry Perkins handed over 500 acres of land to Zhang Jing. He took his wife, drove a pickup truck, and a trailer and left completely for the urban area of the capital.
After getting the key, Zhang Jing didn't appear particularly happy. He dug for gold for four days in a row. It wasn't until Barbie completed the transfer that he drove the excavator to the ditch where he had fallen.
First, he worshiped the four gods, and then immediately excavated. When he dug three meters down, he encountered a large bluestone.
The large bluestone is about two meters in diameter and about one meter thick.
Expand the hole, dig around, remove the bluestone inch by inch, and continue digging down. Less than half a meter, the metal skin is finally exposed, which is what Zhang Jing is looking for.
Zhang Jing didn't plan to stay for a long time. No matter how beautiful Terry Perkins made the place, he didn't feel it.
The reason why I paid readily and kindly increased the price was just for this piece of meteorite!
Use an excavator to expand the pit and slowly reveal it over time.
Quite surprising, it lies across a pothole, measuring about 3 meters * 1.5 meters * 1.2 meters. The surface is irregular, with some holes and mesh patterns. It is very heavy and cannot move at all. It can be stored in the mithril space.
It was obviously the core of a dead planet, incredibly large.
Such a large piece is rare but not uncommon, because there are even bigger pieces. As Zhang Jing knows, there are two pieces in the Dragon Kingdom, and each piece is a valuable treasure.
A piece called 'Silver Camel' was unearthed more than 120 years ago. It has a volume of 2.42m×1.85m×1.37m=3.5 cubic meters and weighs about 30 tons. It is stored in the Xijiang Museum.
The other piece is called "Lingshi", which has been unearthed for more than 1,400 years. It is located in the Luzu Temple outside the north gate of the old city of Lingshi County. It looks like iron but not iron, like stone but not stone. Its color is gray, its sound is clanking, and its volume is about 2.5 meters. 4 cubic meters and weighs about 7 tons.
Don't be arrogant, don't belittle yourself, no matter what, this thing in front of you is very valuable.
With the cabin full of harvest, Zhang Jing left decisively.
