Catch the sea: start with a sand shovel and take over the entire beach

Zhao Qin naturally would not let Old Zhu do all the bad things, so that night he called everyone to a meeting.

“It’s not easy for anyone to be away from home. I said earlier that in addition to wages, 10% of all output will be counted as bonuses for everyone.

I have thought about it seriously these two days, and considering that everyone is really working hard, I plan to increase the reward to 15%.

I won’t say who gets more or less, everyone, including my brothers, will share equally.”

Zhao Qin said this, and he looked around, and saw joy on everyone's faces. No matter what, a bonus increase is a good thing.

After leaving home, who wouldn’t want to earn more?

Seeing that everyone understood, Zhao Qin continued, "What I am going to say next is not a mandatory requirement. You can decide for yourself.

I plan to increase my daily working hours from 10 hours to 14 hours, after all, due to the special climate here, we can only work five months a year. "

"Boss, 8 hours of sleep is enough, 16 hours a day will be fine." One of them spoke up.

"Why can't we just work for five months? Let's divide the work. If it doesn't work, we can just take a break while the machine keeps running. We can run it 24 hours a day."

"Is it really only 5 months? Then we can go back in September?"

When everyone heard that there were only five months, they were all depressed. As for how many hours they worked a day, no one seemed to care at all.

This is the Chinese people. As long as they are given a chance to make money, they will really risk their lives for it.

Zhao Qin was slightly moved. At this moment, he had already made up his mind that no matter how much gold he could dig, he had to at least ensure that these people could take home a generous income.

The day after the meeting, the group seemed to have put in all their efforts and their efficiency improved again.

Even Arnold, the old gold digger, couldn't keep up with the pace. At noon, he just picked up the plate and was about to eat.

He saw the people next to him finish their meal in a few bites, then got on the truck directly. Some even ate directly on the bulldozer, which made him look confused.

I am extremely uncomfortable with this kind of work pace.

There were originally two screen washers, one that could process 200 yards of soil per hour, and the other, which was slightly smaller, could only process 160 yards of soil per hour.

After Jiang Bing checked, he actually pulled one to 230 yards and the other to 180 yards.

According to him, we have to be more cautious when doing this abroad, but in China, where equipment and accessories are cheap, we can directly overload by more than 50%.

There are also some bad things, that is, Zhao Qin gets angry every day, and these people will stop working.

It was said to be 14 hours, but if we didn't work more than 16 hours a day, Zhao Qin had to cook an extra meal every day to ensure that everyone's nutrition and calories could keep up.

That's right, he is now in charge of logistics, cooking with Joey and Li Gang every day.

Of course, Lao Zhu can also help.

Originally, Zhao Qin planned to visit New Jersey and San Francisco once things were on track, but he really didn't dare to leave now, for fear that these guys would work day and night and exhaust him.

After working for ten consecutive days, it is now April 4th. At noon today, the entire base is very quiet.

Because all the equipment had stopped, after dinner, Lao Zhu and Liu Jing were collecting the filter mats from the two sinks.

The working principle of the screening machine is actually very simple. First, the filtering equipment will vibrate out the large stones, and then the fine sand and gravel will enter the water tank and be washed by water to remove the lighter soil impurities.

The ore sand settles directly in the filter blanket at the bottom of the tank.

Now Lao Zhu is going to take away the filter blanket and continue to purify the gold to test the results of the ten days' work.

As soon as the sink was turned on, everyone gathered around.

"Why is there no gold?"

"Didn't they say that the gold content in that land was very high after testing?"

Everyone's face was filled with frustration. Seeing them like this, Lao Zhu snorted heavily and lifted the first filter blanket. The next moment, cheers could be heard throughout the base.

Because under the filter blanket, in the cracks of the sink, layers of golden particles are stuck in it.

"Go away, go away. You can't help me at all. What are you doing here?" Old Zhu chased everyone away as if he was chasing away chickens.

"Uncle Zhu, now that you've harvested the crops, we can start working, right?" one of the young men asked.

Old Zhu was quite pleased, and pointed at the young man and said to everyone, "Listen, this is the temperament of a man who gets things done. Don't worry, wait for me to rinse the filter blanket and put it back, and then you can get started."

The one who is busier than Lao Zhu is Jiang Bing. After all the equipment has finally stopped, he has to take the time to check it.

Add engine oil when necessary, especially since the screening and washing machine is always in vibration, some screws may become loose, so they all need to be checked now.

Old Zhu asked Liu Jing to take all the ore to be purified back to the hut. He did not rush in, but took the gold pan to the tailings.

Zhao Qin filled a basin with sand and soil from the tailings and started washing it in the pool beside him. He was puzzled. "Uncle Zhu, this is tailings. What are you doing?"

Old Zhu did not rush to explain. He waited until the washing was finished and he saw that there was no gold sand in the basin. Then he smiled.

"Boss, let me check the tailings to make sure our soil is clean. If it's not, it means there's something wrong with our equipment. We have to find trouble with Xiao Jiang, haha."

I learned from chatting with Lao Zhu that sometimes equipment issues can cause a loss of 10% to 20% of gold sand, which is a considerable amount of money.

It takes a certain amount of time to purify gold. Lao Zhu and Liu Jing immediately rinsed the filter blanket and handed it over to Jiang Bing to put it all back.

After being shut down for two hours, the machines at the base started roaring again.

The only difference from the past was that everyone would turn their eyes to that little house from time to time, wanting to know what the results of everyone’s hard work in the past ten days were.

It was not until noon the next day, when everyone was about to have lunch, that Old Zhu opened the door of the hut and waved to Zhao Qin.

Zhao Qin stood up with a smile, glanced at the impatient eyes, and said, "Let's go and take a look together."

Those who had already received their meals decisively threw them aside. After a while, the small room was packed with people, and only the table in the middle was empty.

Li Minghui was also quite curious and wanted to know how much gold there would be this time.

Joey was even more nervous. On the one hand, he hoped that the more the better, because he also received commissions, but he was also afraid that if it was too much, he would not be able to handle it. After all, he was the one who sold the land to Zhao Qin, so his expression was a little conflicted.

As for the others, they all looked expectant.

Wu Xing was also somewhat eager. On the one hand, his commission was calculated separately, but it was 2%. Originally, Zhao Qin said 5%, but he thought it was too much, so he only asked for 2 points.

On the other hand, he was also worried that he had made a mistake and the land he chose would not achieve the expected results.

At this moment, the table in the middle was covered with a large piece of red cloth. Old Zhu smiled and motioned Zhao Qin to uncover the red cloth.

In fact, from Lao Zhu's expression, Zhao Qin could tell that it should be quite impressive.

He smiled and glanced at everyone one by one, then he took up his hands and suddenly peeled off the red cloth. Seeing three extra pots of gold on the table, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Joey simply said, "Oh my God!"

"It hasn't been weighed yet, boss. You weigh it first." Lao Zhu pointed to a small electronic scale next to him.
