Next, they began to wander around the mountains, but two months later, they still found nothing.

Fortunately, they brought plenty of dry food, and there were fish and shrimp in the small rivers in the mountains, and occasionally they could shoot several strange birds to eat------ so there was no problem in surviving, but they didn't come here for hunting and fishing, where is the legendary gold?!

They all knew that gold was usually found in small rivers and streams, but the small rivers and streams they encountered were all crystal clear, only fish and shrimp.

During this period, they also met other gold diggers, most of them did not harvest, but I heard that a large family sent people really found the gold mine------ they went to that place together to have a look, and found that they really found the right place, in a cave at the foot of a mountain, where a dark river came out, where a little golden light could be seen on the riverbed with the naked eye!

Fuck, the rich man's luck is so good?!

There were about 50 people in the gold rush team, and they had set up tents by the river, and they were panning for gold in the river.

Gao Lao Er saw that there were Liuqiu soldiers on horseback who were gesturing on horseback, and perhaps were stipulating the scope of gold panning for them.

A red flag was also planted in that place, indicating that the Liuqiu army had been notified and that the ownership of the gold mine had been registered.

The eyes of the other onlookers were red, but Gao Lao Er carefully observed the surrounding environment, trying to make a mental note, he believed that in such a large mountainous area, there would definitely be a similar place.

But it backfired, more than two months later, their shoes were worn out twice, and they were still empty-handed.

On the way, they also sheltered a single gold digger.

At that time, the guy had a little foot injury, and he was sitting alone on a rock in a daze, and when he saw Gao Xiaoer and them coming, he yelled and begged for help.

He claimed to be good at surveying the land, otherwise he would not have boldly entered the mountain alone----- but his foot was injured, he couldn't carry his bag, and he couldn't travel too far, so he asked to join the gang.

Gao Xiaoer didn't look like a bad guy when he looked like a bad person, and he even had dry food in his bag, thinking that he had just entered the mountains.

Gao Xiaoer also asked about the person's background------ it turned out that he was from Yangzhou, surnamed Huang Mingde.

They finally took Huang De into custody, helped him divide his bags, cut him a wooden stick to use as a crutch, and arranged for one person to support him on his journey, which did not affect his journey too much.

Huang De said: "Don't always think about looking for water gold, that mountain gold is only out of horseshoe gold------ please walk slowly with your head up." ”

This is reasonable, everyone is not in a hurry to find a place with water, and carefully observe the huge rocks and cliffs on the surrounding mountains.

Huang De then said leisurely: "There are green onions on the mountain, and silver at the bottom; There are leeks at the bottom of the mountain, and gold ------- at the bottom."

There is a reason why the people looked not only at the stones, but also at the grass, looking for plants that resembled onions or leeks.

However, another month passed, and Huang De's foot injury was healed and there was no mineral deposit, even if it was a copper mine.

They also sent three people out of the mountains to buy some food and other necessities------ and when they bought the goods, they said that the wooden houses outside the mountains had become a small village, and more and more people came here.

Some people found copper ore and lead ore and sold them at a good price, so that some businessmen rushed to buy them!

After hearing this, everyone was depressed, we deserve to be born poor, and we are the material to be water thieves??

Gao Xiaoer laughed and said: "I was afraid that no one would want those mineral deposits, as long as someone buys and someone opens the mine, then I can go to work as a miner in a desperate situation, and there will be an income anyway, right?"

It's better than being in a fishing village, right? ”

Yes, yes, this is the truth, there is a way that the sky is endless------ but when others get rich, they can only be miners, which is too unwilling.

Gao Xiaoer said: "The food and supplies we have on hand can still be used for three months, if there is no harvest in three months, let's go out of the mountain------ find the guy who borrowed money to take out another loan, and it is not difficult for everyone to work together to make a living." ”

Everyone agrees with Gao Xiaoer's statement, they all know that the salary here is quite high, and they can contribute to Da Song for three months a month!

In the last three months, everyone focused their hopes on Huang De.

Huang De's heart was tight, he said: "Finding gold is a matter of fate, you can't be in a hurry to seek wealth------ it took 30 years in your life to find three or five silver mines and two gold mines------"

No, no one can wait that long!

Huang De had no choice but to say: "God will have mercy on good people------ I see that everyone is a kind-hearted person, and I may be able to find it." ”

This can be regarded as a kind of Great Song version of soul soup------ everyone has to start looking for it again.

Slowly, they moved from one mountain to the other, heading northeast.

Huang De stood on a rocktop mountain, looking at the terrain and the clouds, no one knew what he was talking about------ so he could only go down.

The mountainous regions of Western Australia are in fact low plateaus, and the further you go to the north-east, the drier it gets.

They soon came to an arid mountainous terrain.

This is different from the Taihu Lake area of the Great Song Dynasty, perhaps due to the arid climate and lack of rainfall, the whole mountain area has basically no vegetation cover, there seems to be no black soil anymore, only the red rocks are exposed outside the mountain, and the whole mountain area looks barren and barren, bare, like the gods have randomly placed countless piles of stones to block people from moving forward.

At the foot of the hill where there is a stream is overgrown with weeds, and within a radius of 100 kilometres there is no inhabited grass and bushes, with the occasional three or five kangaroos or Australian ostriches jumping and running.

Anyway, they're beasts here.

The sun was so abundant at noon that they were dizzy from the sun, and they easily found a strange tree, and they all sat in the shade to enjoy the shade.

Huang De held a straw stick in his mouth, tasted it carefully, and said that this is not a place where there is gold and silver, and there is no gold and silver in the grass.

That's okay?!

Gao Xiaowu also followed his example and grabbed a handful of grass to chew, phew, he immediately spit it out, there was an indescribable commotion in the grass, and there was no grass fragrance of his hometown grass at all!!

Gao Xiaoliu was not convinced, and said: "There is no gold and silver here, so there is not even copper, lead and iron?" You can tell by eating a bite of grass------ what is the truth of that?? ”

Gao Xiaoer immediately stopped Gao Xiaoliu's questioning, he knew that everyone was irritable about getting nothing for nearly half a year, and they were all thinking about who to vent their grievances on------ at this time, Huang De could not be blamed in any way.

Huang De said unhurriedly: "The qi of less yin is gold, it is naturally warm and moist------ so gold gives birth to water, and the water born will moisten the grass and trees, and it will make the plants and trees moisturized." ”

Well, the crowd didn't quite understand his logical reasoning, but it sounded very reasonable.

Gao Xiaoliu snorted angrily and went to pee in the distance.

He forcefully pushed the pillar of urine towards a dirt hole------ and then found that a yellow stone was exposed in the dirt!

He didn't care about getting dirty, so he immediately bent down and picked it up, only to feel a heavy ------Ah, I found gold!"
