The next trip made Zhu Yu understand what it means that a slimmed down camel is bigger than a horse.
Even though Brown is about to go bankrupt, the arrangements along the way are luxurious.
Zhu Yu thought with some self-deprecation that his vision and structure were still too small.
At first, when I heard Smith say that Brown was about to go bankrupt, I thought he was just like the poor businessman with a sad face.
Unexpectedly, they stayed in the villa and flew the plane. After getting off the plane, a luxury motorcade was waiting.
The base is built in a large area of virgin forest.
Driving all the way from the airport to the base, the trees on both sides began to become dense and the vehicles began to sparse. Eventually, only their convoy was left on the road.
The car drove for seven or eight hours before turning off the road and reaching a flat area. Seven or eight tents had been set up here, and people were busy.
After getting off the bus, Zhu Yu was assigned to a small tent.
Putting down his backpack, Zhu Yu took out the water bottle from the space, drank a few sips, and ate something. Just as he was about to go out for a convenience, someone came over to call him.
Brown's tent is in the middle of the base. It's the largest tent and has all the furnishings inside. It doesn't look like someone looking for treasure at all, but more like a tourist.
There are two maids waiting on her.
When Zhu Yu came in, Brown was drinking coffee and listening to reports.
He glanced at Zhu Yu, waved his hand, and asked the reporter to go down.
Zhu Yu arrived first, followed by Anderson's group, and Chelsea's group arrived last.
"Have a rest today and start taking action tomorrow." Brown saw the three groups of people arriving and immediately ordered, "Start taking action tomorrow.
Come on, everyone, take out the picture. I'll mark our location for you first. Baitiao Lake is nearby. You can determine your own route to find it. My people will follow you and report any situation in time. "
Zhu Yu said nothing, and Anderson asked:
"Do we have to come back every day, or do we come back regularly, or do we come back until we find the treasure? What happens to the other two groups if we find it?"
Even if he had conflicts with Anderson, Zhu Yu had to admit that Anderson was more thoughtful.
After all, they are professionals, so that’s different.
After hearing these questions, Brown turned to look at the others and asked:
"Do you still have any questions?"
Chelsea spoke:
"I heard from Mr. Brown that the treasure is of great value and there must be a lot of it. If it is far away from the base, how will it be transported?"
Brown looked at Zhu Yu again.
Zhu Yu shook his head. He is a newbie and really doesn't understand anything, so he might as well hide his clumsiness.
Anderson glanced at Zhu Yu with a look of disdain.
Brown said slowly:
"Under normal circumstances, we come back every three days. The area around here is dozens of kilometers in radius. As far as I know, it is the most likely place to bury treasures.
So there are clues nearby. If you look in the wrong place and get lost, I am not responsible.
As for one group finding the burial place of the treasure, then the other two groups will automatically withdraw. I will give you a hard-earned fee of US$10,000 each to send you away. "
The winner takes all, but fortunately Brown is not so ruthless.
The three groups of people exited the tent. As soon as Zhu Yu walked back, Anderson's voice came over:
"Chinese boy, don't embarrass yourself here! A treasure hunter like you who is not even an amateur will only embarrass you if you come here, and you may even lose your life! If you leave now, you can still maintain some dignity!"
Zhu Yu looked back at him, then turned and left expressionlessly.
Anderson is right, he is indeed an amateur.
But it was impossible for Zhu Yu to leave, whether Anderson was really kind or just to eliminate competitors.
Back in the tent, Zhu Yu put on his equipment, sprayed his body with anti-mosquito spray, and planned to go for a walk in the forest.
He had never wandered around such a large area of primeval forest.
When I came out of the tent, I saw Anderson's people making preparations. Sheila was sprinkling powder outside the tent, and there were weeders and assembling some scattered equipment.
As expected, he is more professional than himself.
But Zhu Yu is not inferior at all, everyone has his own strengths!
Their strengths are something they don’t possess.
I turned around and took a look. There was no one outside the tent on Chelsea's side. There were faint sounds inside, it was probably a meeting.
Zhu Yu glanced at the map in his hand. Even if the base point was pointed by Brown, it was actually very inaccurate.
A map with a radius of dozens of kilometers is on a piece of paper the size of a palm. How accurate can it be by clicking on it?
All I know is that the general direction is to the west.
Zhu Yu raised his feet and headed west.
Later, I heard ridicule from Anderson's group.
Zhu Yu ignored it and went to see the environment of the forest first.
As we walked into the forest, our vision suddenly darkened.
There are many thick leaves on the ground, and dead branches are hidden under the fallen leaves. Walking will be difficult and you will occasionally get stuck.
Fortunately, I have my clairvoyance, which can be opened occasionally and I can clearly see the road ahead.
There are not many small shrubs, and many tall trees take up the nutrients in the soil. Unlike the southern rainforest, in this jungle, only some shade-loving grasses can survive under the trees.
Occasionally, a solitary mushroom popped its head out, and Zhu Yu also saw mice scurrying in and out among the leaves.
A hare jumped up not far away, ran for more than ten meters and then stopped, turning its head to look at Zhu Yu warily.
Zhu Yu took out the gun from the space, took aim, and finally put down the gun.
It would not be wise to shoot.
The rabbit eventually ran away.
Zhu Yu continued walking inside and faintly heard the howling of wolves.
Not only was he not afraid, he was also slightly excited.
This is the primitive jungle!
With the submachine gun in his hand, he was really not afraid.
Just walking forward until the sun went down, no wild beasts were found, which was a bit of an unexpected gain.
With some regrets, I finally turned back.
When I came back, I deliberately staggered the way I came and opened my eyes as I walked. I found something unexpected near a creek near the base.
A few small transparent stones among the rocks beside the stream.
Zhu Yu took out a small shovel and dug it out.
The big ones are like broad beans and the small ones are like soybeans.
Rough diamonds!
Arkansas is rich in diamonds, but I didn’t expect to find them here too!
Zhu Yu scanned around again, and there was still one, but it was too small, no more than the size of a sesame seed, forget it.
Putting the original stone in the palm of his hand, Zhu Yu returned to the base happily.
"You didn't get eaten by a wolf?" Someone on Anderson's side laughed, "It seems you are really lucky."
Chelsea also came over and asked:
"It's too risky for you to go into the forest at this time."
Zhu Yu didn't speak, but smiled and nodded, indicating that he understood what she meant.
"Anything gained?"
Zhu Yu stretched out his hand and showed the diamonds to her.
It's not about showing off, but a proper display of strength.
Otherwise, you will really be looked down upon by these people.
"Did you find it?" Chelsea exclaimed, "Diamond?"
"Yeah, I found it in the creek."
Chelsea's exclamation alarmed everyone in the two groups. Except for Anderson, everyone else came over to watch.
Although the average diamond on the earth can be divided into more than one thousand carats, in fact, diamonds, especially large diamonds, are still a good thing to preserve their value.
Even Brown heard the sound and came over to take a look curiously.
