Zuo Jing's face turned green.

What I was most afraid of before was that Yan Peng would say such things directly, the exploration cost of this project exceeded 20 million, not to mention the gold mine, even the pheasant did not see a single one.

Spending money is one thing, and there is always a way to smooth out the accounts.

But if you admit defeat, the consequences you should bear will come directly.

"I was surprised by your beginning." Wu Zhuo also raised his head with interest, "You continue." ”

Xu Xin said without hurrying: "I think we were wrong in the direction from the beginning, and we turned over the empiricist mistakes, and everyone got into a dead end."

I always think that there must be a mine in the upper reaches of the Laohuang River, and I have been going upstream to pursue it, and the exploration work has extended more than 200 kilometers to the northeast, and has even entered the scope of the water phase province! ”

"Hmm." Wu Zhuo also listened carefully and nodded from time to time.

"I think it's time for us to change course."

Xu Xin pushed the materials prepared in advance in front of Wu Zhuoye, "The runoff of the Lao Huang River is roughly 'Z' in this area, and we should go to the lower reaches of the Lao Huang River to do work." ”

"Downstream?" Wu Zhuo didn't figure it out for a while, leaned his body on the table, staring at the topographic and geological map, "It doesn't make sense." ”

"To be precise, not the lower reaches of the old Huangjiang riverbed, but to the northwest."

Xu Xin circled a large area on the map.

This area, located in the northwest of the Lost Dragon Valley, has a deep valley on top of a high mountain, overgrown with grass and difficult roads.

"According to Xu Xin's surface measurements over there, some points with high gold content have indeed been found." Yan Peng added.

Wu Zhuo has also worked in the mining industry for so many years, and his technical background has taken him to an administrative position, and he can understand these technical issues at a glance.

At the same time, my mind is even more confused.

"When I first came to this project, you told me that this direction has been ruled out." He looked at Yan Peng, obviously Yan Peng said this at the beginning.

"We did do surface work, and there were indeed no anomalies on the slope of the north side of the Lost Dragon Valley, within a radius of several kilometers." Yan Peng didn't figure it out now, and his inquiring eyes turned to Xu Xin.

Regarding this question, Xu Xinzhong roughly had a guess, pointing to the map and explaining: "On the slope of the mountain north of the Misty Dragon Valley, there is no bedrock outcropping on the surface.

Anyone who has done surface work in this area has probably seen it with their own eyes, and the strange rocks here are all rubble rolling down from the top of the mountain.

In fact, there is a residue of gold on the surface under the rubble.

I suspect that somewhere in the valley to the northwest, the primary gold ore outlet is on the surface, and after years of surface water erosion, it converges along the slope to the low-lying land of the Milong Valley, forming the placer gold deposit of the Milong Valley. ”

"What you said makes sense, my mind suddenly cleared up."

Wu Zhuo also expressed his appreciation and agreed with this statement, "Don't say it, since you are looking for the gold placer deposit in Milonggu, everyone knows that the old Huangjiang River has been diverted, and there are riverbed relics underground.

This idea is deeply ingrained in our minds, and even I think that the primary mine must be in the upper reaches of the Lao Huang River. ”

As he spoke, he once again showed an appreciative look at Xu Xin, "Young people are open-minded, and they know how to diverge their thinking and jump out of the inherent thinking mode better than us old men!" ”

"Our next step is to set up a new exploration project and explore this valley in the northwest of the Misty Dragon Valley!" Zuo Jing saw that the atmosphere was harmonious, and Mayor Wu was also in a good mood, so he hurriedly stood up and made a appearance.

"You reported to me and said that you had made a major breakthrough, right?" Mayor Wu said with a smile.

"Yes," Zuo Jing hurriedly took the credit, "I am already planning for the next step, and strive to find the primary gold deposit within a month!" ”

"A ...... month" Wu Zhuo also thought about it and agreed, "Very good, we must not be afraid of hardships and hardships when we do geological work!" ”

He said this to the technician of the project department, if you really want to find the primary gold mine within a month, the time is tight and the task is heavy, and these pressures are transmitted down layer by layer, and finally you need to rely on the steadfastness and hard work of every technician.

"We will definitely work in this area as soon as possible and get a result in the shortest possible time!" Yan Peng said.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Wu Zhuo also came over this time, and he didn't hear what he wanted to hear, but at least he got an accurate message, and he wasn't too disappointed.

"Dean Yan, if you encounter any problems in your work, you can react to Dong Zuo at any time, or even come directly to me to say, as long as it can be solved, I will fully cooperate with you!" He expressed a lot of support.

Zuo Jing also hurriedly followed to express his support, "I will fully cooperate with the investigation work and do a good job in logistics support!" ”

Seeing that it was lunch time, Wu Zhuo also had a light meal in the project department and left.

So far, the Laohuangjiang gold mine exploration project has failed, but there is still a chance to save it.

In the afternoon of the same day, Xu Xin took Yan Peng and others to the top of the mountain north of the Lost Dragon Valley and pointed out the point where he found that the gold content was high.

Many anomalies are buried under rubble, and the depth of detection by the instrument is limited, so they cannot be found at all.

It was only in the valley to the northwest that a point with a high gold content was found on a ridge directly above the surface.

This one point is enough to verify Xu Xin's statement.

In the next few days, Yan Peng was busy preparing to apply for new prospecting rights, and Xu Xin did not do the information himself, but only occasionally discussed it with Yan Peng.

He lived in the Milong Valley mine for two days, and just as he was about to have dinner, he called the mining office in the book and had an urgent matter, so he told Yan Peng and drove back to the city.

It was raining heavily in the sky, and the April sky in Heijin Province suddenly became clammy and cold.

When Xu Xin hurried to the mining in the book, it was already completely dark.

As soon as he arrived at the gate, the electronic door was still opening automatically, and Uncle Ge rushed to the car window against the rain, followed by a big wolf dog at his feet.

"Boss Xiaoxu, you are here, go in and see Zhong Manman, she doesn't know what's going on, she keeps crying, everyone is off work, I don't know how to fix it!" Uncle Ge said worriedly.

Xu Xin glanced up in the direction of the office building, the lights in the cafeteria on the first floor were still on, and there were several people standing at the door.

He drove in, rushed out of the car against the rain, and saw several canteen aunts and office staff accompanying Zhong Manman, constantly comforting.

Uncle Ge took an umbrella and wore slippers, stepped on the rain-soaked ground, and walked in.

The big wolf dog also galloped over, sitting at the door of the office building, constantly shaking the water on his body.

Zhong Manman's eyes were red and swollen, and his tears had dried up.

"What's going on?" Xu Xin was thrown by the big wolf dog, and he was a little afraid of this dog, but at the moment, it was more about what happened to Zhong Manman.

"It rained all the time in the afternoon, everyone had dinner, and the one with the umbrella left first, and a few of us were still cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and we saw Zhong Manman sitting in the canteen crying, and then rushed into the rain, we didn't know what was going on, and pulled her back." The cafeteria aunt said.

Uncle Ge didn't know the reason for the matter, "Everyone is off work, I don't have your phone, I can only call the people in the office and ask them to contact you." ”

Zhong Manman squatted on the ground, his fingers flipping the screen of his mobile phone, checking the bus ticket.

"What's wrong?" Xu Xin said warmly.

"I'm going home!"

Zhong Manman said without raising his head.

But on the screen of his mobile phone, at this time, it shows that there are no more high-speed trains that day, not even long-distance buses.

"When we got the call, she just repeated the same sentence when we came." The office staff was worried.

"She's in this state now, and we can't let her go alone, so we can only give you a big call."

During this time, Zhong Manman has been squatting on the mining side of the book to guard Xu Xin.

She has a belief that if she wants to give Xu Xin an interview, she must rely on perseverance to wear through the stones, and she has not been able to do so until now.

Everyone knows her well.

"What's going on at home?" Xu Xin took off his coat and draped it over Zhong Manman.

Probably just rushed into the rain, she was soaking wet, squatting on the ground and shivering slightly.

Zhong Manman didn't speak, he looked at the screen of his mobile phone, planning to transfer from the provincial capital, and with a tap of his finger, he had already determined the route.

"What about the company's cars, they are all off work, why don't there be any cars in the parking space?" Xu Xin asked the office staff in surprise.

"I've been busy in Deyun City recently, and I haven't had a car for a few days." The office staff explained truthfully.

Xu Xin thought that he still had a lot of things to do, and he couldn't be busy, if the company had a car, it was not impossible to arrange someone to send Zhong Manman home, that is, half a day.

But at the moment, there is really no free up cars and manpower.

Everyone has been getting along well with Zhong Manman, a diligent girl, recently, and they are all worried about her and trying their best to give her a way.

Looking at her like this, something must have happened suddenly at home.

He thought for a while, and said softly: "I'll send you back, where is your home, not far away?" ”

Zhong Manman raised his head, his eyes were red and swollen, he glanced at Xu Xin, and choked up: "In the countryside far away." ”

"It's okay, let's go, I'll send you back tonight." Xu Xin smiled gently.
