Chapter 272: Gold Rush in the Sea
Soon these items were snatched up, Wen Yi and Meng Ning of course have experience, the speed is fast and accurate, the division of labor is clear, one goes to grab the quilt, the other goes to grab food, so the two of them will not be hungry or cold.
These things are always limited, and they won't be available to everyone, so naturally there will be things that Wen Yu and Meng Ning grabbed if there are no people who grabbed them.
But Wen Yi and Meng Ning quickly shrank to the wall they had chosen before, there was a knife there, and they naturally didn't dare to mess around anymore, so they could only watch Wen Yi and Meng Ning eat the meal.
Following.
Early in the morning, the door of the firewood room was pushed open with a very unfriendly bang, and a screeching sound was made, as if to protest against the person who opened the door with such great force.
Everyone was woken up by the sound of the door opening, and Wen Yi and Meng Ning also opened their eyes very unhappily, because the sky was still dark, so they couldn't see very clearly.
"Get up! Get out to work for me! The people who spoke were very impatient, they were not happy to get up early, he was not happy, he had to get up so early to supervise the work.
The women in the firewood room stood up one by one and walked out slowly, and there were people waiting outside the door for them to urge them to move faster, and when they saw someone moving slowly, they waved their whips.
Immediately the women were honest, one after another in an orderly manner, Wen Yu had been paying attention to the surrounding environment, but she found that this place was very desolate, there were no people, and even the road was very rugged, and it was impossible to drive away.
Meng Ning also found that there were no woods around here, and even if he went out, he might get lost and starve to death.
As they walked, they almost came to a small dark room, where a group of people were waiting for them.
Wen Yi and Meng Ning glanced at each other, the soil here was yellow, it seemed that they roughly knew what they were going to do here.
There were foreigners who gave them equipment, very rudimentary diving equipment, just a snorkel connected to an oxygen cylinder, and a very dirty mask, everyone had it.
After everyone received it, someone spoke in their Chinese: "This is your diving equipment, someone will teach you how to use it briefly, and someone will take you to the sea when the time comes." ”
At this point, Wen Yi and Meng Ning understood that their conjecture was right, and they brought them here to pan for gold.
And this must be illegal gold panning, people are bought and sold, the equipment here is poor, it can be said that it is difficult to ensure the safety of life, and the slightest carelessness will kill the sea.
Hearing this, many women were scared, they wanted to go into the sea, they wanted to dive, and if they couldn't breathe, wouldn't it be a life.
They were visibly resistant to learning how to use a submersible, and they felt like they would suffocate as long as they put that breathing noodle on.
For those who did not cooperate with the work, or even resisted and resisted, the foreigners did not say much, and just dragged and left the place.
Wen Yi didn't know where they were taken and what happened to them after that, but it looked like the group of people were in the past
behaved in style, and they must be more auspicious this time.
Even though Wen Yi was very repulsive to this mask and breathing mouth, she hesitated when she saw Meng Ning, and still brought it up, after all, survival is more important, and you can put it aside now if it is clean or something.
Wen Yi also learned, and the rest of the women didn't dare to reject it anymore when they saw those people being dragged away, they also felt that they had learned, even if the breathing mouth was already very dirty and disgusting, they couldn't show it.
Foreigners watched them obediently learn how to use them one by one, so they didn't keep an eye on them, but walked around leisurely.
The tutorial was quick, and they didn't have that much patience to wait for them to learn the number, so it ended quickly and left them to keep their own equipment.
If there is damage, they will suffer inhuman abuse, some people have little strength, and they want to drag them away with old clothes because they see that there are very torn clothes on the side of the road, but the foreigners stop them, in case the oxygen cylinder is worn out on the ground, if the leakage is worn, they can't be used by others in the future, that is not good.
The foreigner whipped them and scolded them angrily, probably saying that they had damaged things and didn't want to get better.
Those whips were waving in the air, Wen Yi and Meng Ning's hearts were also beating faster, looking at these whips Although they were not on them, the pain could be imagined.
They don't dare to slack off, they are all serious about studying, after all, it is a matter of time before they die if they don't learn well.
I didn't let them go to the sea today, but I just let them get used to the equipment, teach them how to pan for gold at the bottom of the sea, and have special equipment, but looking at this sense of age, I don't know if they can still use it.
Soon everyone learned how to operate the equipment, as well as the equipment used to pan for gold, and how to identify gold.
Today, I took them to see how others practice, and then I also told them the rules, if there is a private collection, then the end will not be easy, the more gold you pan, the more benefits you can exchange for.
And so the day ended, and they were taken back before dark, and a group of them went to sleep as night fell.
The next day, they were still woken up very early, and the group followed one by one like the idiom solitaire, and walked for about half an hour like yesterday's road, and arrived at the place where they received the equipment yesterday, and soon each of them received a set of equipment.
As soon as Wen Yi received the equipment, she felt that something was wrong with her lower body, this feeling, God, aunt won't come to see her.
Because I don't know the date here, I don't know the time, her aunt is coming, she doesn't know, but she has to go to the sea today, what can I do?
"Meng Ning, I'm on my period, what should I do, I still have to go to the sea." Wen Yi said anxiously, she felt that this was about to leak out.
"What can I do, they won't care about you." Meng Ning suddenly had no choice, she thought about it and had no choice but to use her own clothes first, because the weather was very hot now, and it was nothing for her to wear a little less.
She tore some of the hem of her dress into a strip, and then folded it several times, and she watched as the men were still gearing up, and they were in the corners of the crowd, but they were not at all conspicuous.
"You quickly put this pad in, I'll help you block it, there's no way to warm it, I'll just go back, let's get the cotton wool out of the quilt, I'll make it thicker for you, and then you will just take advantage of the sea, just wash and change it."
Meng Ning blocked her, Wen Yi had to do it first, and when she changed it again, Meng Ning thought of it again and said: "This is not a reward, we will pan for some gold then, and it will be easy to change when the time comes."
"Thank you, Meng Ning." Wen Yu changed into it, and when she was about to wear the equipment, her stomach began to hurt, she had a miscarriage, and she had been bullied all the time, and her body had already fallen ill, and she had been drifting on the sea for so long.
Her body has not been recuperated, and she is still worried every day because of her excessive thoughts.
Meng Ning saw that her face was very pale, and she really couldn't help but she planned to tell the overseer, but Wen Yi stopped her, and said that not only was it useless, but she might also be beaten.
"Don't go, if you go, you'll only be beaten." Wen Yu grabbed her and persuaded her not to do useless work.
Meng Ning couldn't resist Wen Yi, she could only watch Wen Yan endure the discomfort, and Meng Ning helped her put on diving equipment.
This is already rudimentary to the extreme, it stands to reason that when diving outside, you have to wear a wetsuit and diving socks, which will keep out the cold, and now you can only wear simple clothes, which feels like a layer of plastic.
When it was their turn to go into the water, Meng Ning helped Wen Yi into the sea, but she was so painful that she almost fainted, but they found that as long as they slacked off, they would be severely beaten by the overseers.
So Wen Yu can only rely on willpower to work in the sea, but she actually doesn't have the spirit to work, it is too painful, she can only hold her lower abdomen, and she has no extra strength to find gold.
Meng Ning was really relieved to see her like that, and she had been paying attention to whether she was okay, and the gold had not been found.
Seeing that the time was about to end, Wen Yi was still holding back, Meng Ning had no choice but to look for gold with all her might, she got through it one by one, and finally the hard work paid off, she found a little golden sand.
Meng Ning hurriedly put it away, she helped Wen Yi to go to the sea, she arrived on the shore, first took off Wen Yi's equipment, and asked her to wait for a while.
Meng Ning found the overseer, she took out the golden sand she had found, and the overseer saw that she was reluctant, so she asked her to pick what she wanted.
Looking at the item exchange office, Meng Ning couldn't change much, she looked at it and changed a roll of toilet paper and a painkiller.
Return to Wen Yu's side.
"Wen Yu, hurry, take this painkiller, you will feel better, there is a roll of toilet paper here, enough for your aunt."
Meng Ning happily told her the good news.
"Thank you, Meng Ning." Wen Yi didn't say much, she only had to get better quickly before she could think of a plan to escape.
Four days passed like this, and by the fifth day, Wen Yu was already much better, and her period was almost gone.
Wen Yi knew that if she exchanged gold for things, the more gold the better, so she searched harder, and together with Meng Ning, the two of them acted separately.
Five days of gold panning work allowed Wen Yi to find some rules, she followed the clues she thought was looking for gold, carefully searched one by one, and looked at others with extreme seriousness.
Meng Ning is also trying to find it, she can find more, and she can use better things.
Wen Yi's scanner suddenly lit up, her eyes lit up, she knew that she had succeeded, he had found gold, and it seemed that it was not golden sands, at least gold grains.
She hurriedly dug out the gold, and she quickly looked around, not wanting anyone to see that she had found the gold nuggets, and she didn't know what kind of disaster it would cause.
Meng Ning was still searching carefully, and Wen Yi sneaked over to find her.
Wen Yi gestured with her hand, she took out the gold nuggets again, and Meng Ning knew what she was talking about.
It means that she has found gold nuggets and can exchange them for some daily necessities, so that she doesn't have to work so hard to find them again, and she can end it early today.
Then she floated to the sea, and the overseer saw Wen Yi and Meng Ning, and just wanted to scold them for coming up so early, it was still early, and they could still search for a while. Wen Yi hesitated and walked over to the overseer.
The overseer saw that she was not going into the sea to pan for gold, but was still hanging on the shore, but wanted to see what she could explain.
Wen Yi didn't speak the language of the country, so she just took out the gold nuggets and gestured to the overseer, meaning that she wanted to exchange them for something.
The overseer was immediately pleased with the gold nugget, and his face changed from impatience to satisfaction.
He accepted Wen Yu's gold grains, then said a word, and began to walk, although Wen Yu didn't understand, but it should be the meaning of following him.
They didn't go far before they arrived at a place where they could exchange items, which was also the place where Meng Ning had exchanged things last time, Wen Yi took a closer look at what could be exchanged.
After all, she needed daily necessities, and soon, she picked out some daily necessities, and then she wanted to borrow scissors, and the overseer was happy and agreed to give Wen Yi and Meng Ning ten minutes.
Wen Yi and Meng Ning both cut off their long hair, because this time is different from the past, the weather here is really hot, and there is no air conditioning, and the shore of the sea is very tanned, the more the sun is getting hotter, and it is not convenient for long hair to be in the water.
