Chapter 542 541. Amazing Harvest (5)

Sophie quickly tied up the crisp bread, and finally tied a bow with gauze, which looked very beautiful.

He simply stretched his legs, looked very happy at the bow on it, and ran to concentrate on lifting the stone again.

Sophie returned the medical supplies to Alicia and said, "Thank you, without these things, we can only rely on the child's self-healing ability. You have helped a lot."

Alicia smiled and said, "Oh no, it's a trivial matter, but if you plan to find ore hunters, you'd better prepare a medical kit. Maybe you don't know, there are a lot of bad things here."

Brende added: "Yes, especially the fire ants. If you encounter them, you must back away quickly and don't be serious with them. Otherwise, there is no healing potion, and once they bite, they will cause you trouble."

Every industry has its own rules. If you want to make money without being fully prepared, it is really too simple to think.

Later, Brende showed them his tools, not only finding items and medical supplies, but also cleaning equipment, lighting equipment and storage equipment.

The preservation supplies he prepared were exquisite black velvet hard-shell boxes with small lizard models inside. Seeing that Sophie had two opals in her hand, he gave her two boxes.

Sophie hastily thanked and declined: "You are so kind, but this box is beautiful, and it must be expensive to make. Sorry, I don't think I can accept your kindness, otherwise God will think I am too greedy."

Alicia pushed her and said: "Take it, this box is not expensive, in fact, I can't tell you, each box is only ten dollars."

"But a ten-dollar box can increase the value of your opals. Fire opals that are cleaned and placed in a box are much more expensive than simple stones, and can sell for thousands of dollars more." Brende added .

Sophie looked at Li Du, Li Du signaled her to accept it, and said, "You're welcome, my dear, this is Stephen's relative. Stephen is the relative of Boss Fu and me. We are very close."

After hearing this, Brende nodded and smiled again and again: "Yes, yes."

Sophie took the box, took out the little lizard and put it in the stone.

Brende stopped her and said, "This place belongs to lizards. The combination of fire opal and lizards, don't you think it has a different kind of beauty of life?"

Sophie put the little lizard model on the fire opal and said with a smile, "It's really beautiful."

Brende and Alicia are full-time ore pickers. They settle in Winslow and work three to four days a week. The work intensity is very high.

The work of ore pickers is not easy. They pay 500 yuan each time, and they can hunt for treasure in the park for 24 hours. In order to get the most harvest, they often work for 24 hours.

That is to say, once they start working, they have to work continuously for a day and a night, and at most go to the tent to rest for a while.

But even if you work hard, the chances of getting something good are not high. Alicia said: "We often pick up some beautiful stones and try to recover the cost. If we can pick up rough agate stones, we can make some small money. To make big money, Can only rely on the favor of Lady Luck."

Brende said: "Li, you are lucky, you got two fire opals in one day, which is not common."

"That guy Cyril is miserable. If I remember correctly, he hasn't found an opal for two months. This time he found one but lost the bet with you. He is very unlucky." Alicia smiled easily.

Brende said: "It's a good thing for us, who made him so annoying?"

Li Du said: "It seems that you don't like him?"

"I don't really like these bastards. They are villains. They spray shit all day long. They are very annoying. But they are not easy to mess with. You have to be careful."

Brende kindly warned Li Du, "It's better to leave now, don't stay here for a day and a night, or you may not know what they will do at night."

Li Du never thought of staying here for a day and a night, he just wanted to find a few fire opals here, and then left.

Brende and Alicia came to warn him about this, and they were about to leave after speaking. Their time was precious, and they had to find valuable stones quickly.

Before leaving, they showed their harvest. This time they came to the park and found some stones, one of which was a clean white stone like ice crystals, and there were several other stones with red spots, purple spots, and black and white stones. Stones with a series of spots like chess.

Li Du thought these stones were pretty, but Brende told him that these stones were not worth much, they could be sold for one or two hundred together, and they had to keep working hard, otherwise they would have to lose money this time.

After sending the two away, Li Du continued to search for fire opal with the crispy noodles.

The number of opal stones here is rare. On an area of ​​one hectare, small flying insects flew repeatedly, and after more than half an hour, an opal the size of a pinky finger was found.

Li Du took the crispy noodles over, and asked the crispy noodles to dig out the messy ore, and when the opal showed a trace of its head, he took it out.

Although this piece of fire opal is small, its color is extremely pure, and there is a piece of white floc inside, making it look like a piece of fire opal.

He gave it to Sophie again, and Sophie shook her head again and again: "Don't give it all to me, it will lose the fun. If you give me too much, they won't look like gifts."

Seeing that Sophie was serious and not polite, he shrugged and put the stone in his pocket.

In addition to fire opal, there are other valuable ores here, such as geode jade, dinosaur coprolites, turquoise, rose quartz, green curtain granite and so on.

These stones are all of certain value, but they are far inferior to fire opal. Li Du did not bring professional tools, and after picking up a few pieces to satisfy the novelty, he did not dig them one by one.

On an area of ​​one hectare, there are millions or tens of millions of large and small ores here, which is simply a large warehouse of gravel.

The gravel in the wilderness is not paved on the ground, but piled up layer by layer, as if a stone crusher has crushed several mountains here.

Sometimes there are depressions on the ground, and the depressions are full of gravel. Small flying insects fly down. At the deepest point, the gravel pit is more than 20 meters deep. There are also fire opals in these places, but it is impossible to collect them without mechanical tools.

After searching for another two hours, Li Du was exhausted, and it became more and more difficult to find fire opals. During this time, he only collected four pieces.

Of course, the number of fire opals discovered by the little flying insects is not only so small, but most of them are under the gravel layer, and Li Du cannot dig them out by manual power.

And in order to deceive people, he can't dig it himself, mainly relying on the crispy noodles. The crispy noodles can't dig down to a depth of one meter or even deeper, which is beyond the ability of raccoons.

In addition to betting back and forth, Li Du found a total of seven pieces of fire opal, which is not too much for him, but for ordinary ore pickers, this harvest is already amazing!
