"Shake slowly, the water flow can't be too big, or even the gold sand will be washed away." Austin didn't go into the water to pan for gold, he took a rifle and walked up and down the stream, teaching the crowd how to pan for gold while patrolling the woods.

"Is there really gold here? Is there any kotou gold? Hong Tao adjusted the angle of the dustpan a little to make the water flow a little slower, and then asked.

"Hehe, I'm afraid there is no dog's head gold, but there is still a lot of gold sand, this was originally a sacred place of an Indian tribe, and the tribe was in the place where we passed by, and then the tribe moved to live in the reservation, and this place was deserted. However, this land is still the land of the Indians, probably because there are so few gold mines here, so no one comes to mine it. Austin pointed to a meadow he had just passed, and Hong Tao remembered that place, just a few hundred meters downstream, where the trees were large and empty, but there were no stumps.

"Then why don't the Indians here come to mine gold? Isn't it possible to exchange a lot of money? Hong Tao was a little puzzled, guarding such a gold mine, he was still cold and poor, this is unreasonable.

"You can't make money mining gold like ours, it can only be a game, the gold content here is not high, so no one comes to mine, don't shake it, see the gold." Austin suddenly pointed to Hong Tao's dustpan and said.

"Where?" Hong Tao put the dustpan on the tip of his nose, and he didn't see any gold in it, only a small handful of fine sand in the dustpan.

"You see, this is." Austin stirred the fine sand with his fingers, then pinched a little and stretched it out in front of Hong Tao's eyes.

"Hey, it's really, it's just a little small...... Hong Tao finally saw a few small yellow dots on Austin's fingertips, and they would shine seductively when the sun shines in the trees.

"It's your turn if there's more!" Liu Xiaomei, who was a few meters away, spoke, and she was also holding her dustpan to find an angle to the sun at this time. Try to see if you have any gleaming things in your dustpan.

"A room of sand...... Bags of gold, bags of gold...... A room of sand. Hong Tao muttered the lines in the cartoon, carefully wrapped the few small grains of gold sand in a blank piece of paper, and then continued to bury his head in gold panning, as for Liu Xiaomei's provocation, he should not hear it, with that idle time, it is better to dig out a few more grains of gold.

There is no one in the world who does not love money, just like Boss Liu, who hears that there is gold in the water, and does not care about old age and decay. Resolutely stepped into the icy stream, and did it happily.

To say that this gold panning is really not a human job, it is quite happy to play for a short time, but to work for a long time, it is not easier than digging coal mines. Not to mention the cold and biting stream, even this posture Hong Tao can't maintain for ten minutes, squatting for a while to get up and move, otherwise it will be difficult to stand up again, and if you don't get your legs weak, you have to fall into the stream.

The mania for yellow lasted only 2 hours. The heat was worn down by the harsh conditions, and they climbed ashore, got a pile of dry wood, and lit a fire. Roasting his legs that were soaked in the stream water. While drinking hot tea, everyone showed their harvest, Liu Xiaomei won the first place in gold mining by virtue of her natural sensitivity to yellow metal, and the gold sand she mined alone was almost equal to the amount of Pavey, Boss Liu and Harrison. Only Hong Tao relied on the sharp eyes cultivated by fishing and watching drifting, and he reluctantly won a second place, but it was still not comparable to Liu Xiaomei in terms of quantity. That's half of the family.

In the end, everyone got the gold sand together, and gave it to Liu Xiaomei, this is not a gift, it is a loss, at the beginning of the gold rush, everyone formulated the rules of this game, that is, the winner wins, whoever picks the most gold, then all the gold sand belongs to him alone.

However, Hong Tao is not distressed, these gold sand are all together, that is, the two match heads have broken so much, this is still coarse gold sand, and after refining and purifying, it is good to have a big match head. This is only when Hong Tao understands that no one comes here to pan for gold, according to this amount of gold mining, it is not enough for labor expenses, and it is also a loss of money when it comes.

However, as a game and amusement project, it is still good to experience the life of North American gold diggers at the beginning of the gold rush, at least we saw a grain of gold sand being pulled out of the stream by ourselves, no matter how much it is, the sense of accomplishment is still full.

Under Liu Xiaomei's vigorous instigation, after eating a simple lunch, everyone beat her waist again and entered the stream again to help her pan for gold. According to her, there is so little gold sand that she can't even make an earring, so she wants everyone to show the spirit of not being afraid of hardship and tiredness, and at least take out the same amount of gold sand for her to make a souvenir.

Everyone was fooled by her pitiful and emotional speech, plus she sacrificed a big killing weapon, and after returning to Toronto, she invited everyone to the best Chinese restaurant for a big meal, and even Austin put down her gun and got into the water. The only ones who weren't tempted here were Boss Liu and Hong Tao, but her father would definitely not object, so Hong Tao was left alone, so why did he have to be that bad guy.

Now, panning for gold is not a game, nor is it fun, but a chore. However, it was not without gain, everyone worked hard for more than 1 hour, not only barely enough gold sand for her, but also fully experienced what kind of work it was for the gold diggers to work under the oppression of their employers. After getting on the horse twice, Fat Pavey rubbed his waist and leaned over to Hong Tao's side and said his personal feelings:

"She's a vampire, it's hard for me to figure out how anyone would be willing to work in her company, and if slavery is restored, she doesn't have to adapt to it, and she will be a qualified slave owner immediately!"

"Oh, I'm going to make you greedy!" Hong Tao's waist is also as hard as a wooden stick, and his butt is grinding by the saddle, which is not better than these old men.

When he came out, he was alive and well, and when he went back, the remnants of the army were defeated, and as soon as everyone returned to the hotel, the bathroom became a hot commodity, according to the rules of ladies first, respecting the old and loving the young, Hong Tao had to wait in the hall first, and after the Liu father and daughter, Pavey and Harrison had finished taking a hot bath, and then the last one went to take a bath.

Whether it's to protect your ass, or go see the polar bears! The next day, Hong Tao encountered a problem. His butt was still hurting, and the base of his thigh was cramping, and he had to walk with a duck step. But that day, Austin wanted to take everyone to the beach to see the polar bear, and the temptation was too strong, and if he lost this opportunity, he was afraid that he would not have a chance in his life, and Hong Tao was reluctant to give up.

In the end, Harrison was more righteous, and he discussed it with Austin and decided not to ride to the beach on horseback, but to row boats instead. This decision made Hong Tao raise his hands and feet in agreement, and he said that it was no problem to let himself row back and forth, as long as he stopped riding a horse, he could do anything.

So Austen ran out of the house again, returned the horses to someone else, and went to get the boats. Hong Tao was also embarrassed, people were so troublesome in order to take care of themselves, but when he carried his things and walked ducks to the small pier by the river, the gratitude in his heart immediately disappeared.

Austin didn't find a boat at all, but a canoe, exactly the same as the one seen in the movie, but older and more worn.

"Can this thing work?" Hong Tao is already a little annoyed with himself, it turns out that he still thinks Liu Xiaomei has a lot of things, this can't be done and that can't be done, now it seems that he has taken over her role, he can't ride a horse, and now he is trembling when he takes a boat.

"Don't worry, they're very controllable, and people here often row them out to the sea to fish." Austin didn't know if he did it on purpose, and he put Pavey and Hong Tao in the same boat.

This canoe is not made of wood, it should be said that not entirely. Its skeleton is still made of wood, I don't know what kind of tree the road is, one by one the thin wooden strips are tied into banana-thick sticks, and then form a dragon skeleton, and then cover it with something that I don't know what material the road is, just like we paste lanterns.
