Chapter 789: Chapter 345: Terrifying Adventure on Silver Island_2
“Mr. Jin, we agree!!” As soon as they heard the General Sect Leader offering to reward them with gold coins so generously, they didn’t hesitate to accept.
Money is not important, what matters is that they want to stay and make a contribution to the General Headquarters.
After all, they had already co this far.
They had done extensive research and preparation for the treasure of Silver Island, abandoning several money-making projects, and they didn’t want to give up so easily. Among them, so had even fallen out with their families over this adventure, had a huge quarrel, bought a plane ticket overnight, and flew here, only to have their equipnt confiscated by the Guerrillas as soon as they landed. They hadn’t even had a chance to do a field survey before they were locked up in a small dark room!
Locked up for 20 hours without sleeping, eating, or drinking, they were then dragged out to be used as human shields.
It was too miserable.
They could even get a screenwriter to write a script and have a director make a movie about the harrowing adventures on Silver Island, with the title “Silver Island Horror Adventure.”
Now that a sponsor saw their potential and was willing to spend a lot of money to recruit them, they were of course happy to work for him.
“Good, I appreciate people like you. Let’s go to the treasure location right now.” Allen Zhang nodded in satisfaction and imdiately set out for the jungle with the group.
The geologist also imdiately followed, and when the conversation shifted to academic topics, they finally felt at ease, and chatted excitedly: “Boss, we also have so equipnt that has been confiscated by the Guerrillas.”
“Those guys are just too impolite. They are not friendly at all to us international guests. We haven’t had food or water for more than twenty hours.”
“Drink so of these waters.” Allen Zhang casually tossed them so mineral water.
“I also brought so snacks and small bread.” Bailey also shared his snacks with them, and they wolfed down the food.
“You’re not Arican, right?” Allen Zhang asked as they walked.
“I’m Italian, he’s Finnish, he’s Belgian, he’s Dutch, and he’s xican. We are currently staying in a hotel in xico City. Soone hired us to do a private gold mine geological survey there, and we took this opportunity to co to Silver Island to search for treasure,” Sieg explained.
Allen Zhang nodded, realizing they were staying in xico. No wonder people from all over the world had gathered only to be caught in one swoop.
He continued: “Equipnt is not an issue. Boketu, go find soone to guide us and bring the specialized surveying equipnt over, and bring so wooden signs along as well.”
“Ok.” Boketu happily complied and imdiately set off to do the task.
The General Sect Leader led the group to a treasure spot in the jungle. After waiting for a while, Boketu arrived with several Guerrilla mbers, handing over the retrieved equipnt to the professional team of geologists. The team quickly checked the equipnt.
“Thank God, the equipnt has not been damaged! It can still be used normally!”
“This is advanced equipnt I borrowed from the lab, very expensive. If it’s damaged, it’s going to cost a lot to replace!”
They all breathed a sigh of relief, smiling like babies.
The team then began their testing. Allen Zhang watched as they inserted tal rods into the ground and began fine-tuning their devices. Soon, after skilled operation, the frequency fluctuations appeared on the LCD screen.
These signals had to do with soil moisture and underground magnetic field feedback, which the General Sect Leader couldn’t understand, but the professional team seed very serious about it.
After discussing animatedly for a while, they happily reported: “Boss, our previous judgnt was correct. There’s so tal frequency feedback underground, both silver and a small amount of gold. It’s distributed about 50-60 ters below the surface, both here and there.”
They also marked off an area of about seven to eight ters in diater with wooden signs nearby.
Bailey was a bit hesitant, “60 ters underground? Won’t that dig right through the island? Are you sure it’s at a distance of 60 ters? Isn’t this island made of coral reefs and mud? With a layer of soil on top and all rocks below, further down might be the sea, and we wouldn’t want to accidentally puncture through it.”
“The coral reefs of Silver Island are not that fragile; so might be disc-shaped with a thickness of only tens of ters, supported by irregular cylindrical structures. As the sea level rises and falls, the top can float on the sea surface, gradually forming a natural coral island, but the geological structure of this island is different, especially in the Central District, where there is a unified geological structure underneath. Even if you drill a few hundred ters, it won’t be a problem,” explained the geologist imdiately.
“So, do you have any good suggestions for mining?” queried Allen Zhang.
The General Sect Leader had this to his credit; whenever he was unsure, he never questioned the suggestions given by the experts. He emphasized trust and listened to advice.
I trust you so much, if you can’t co up with a reasonable solution, do you think that’s reasonable?
Can’t co up with one? Then don’t bla the General Sect Leader for firing you or docking your salary.
“Our suggestion is that we need a large construction machine to drill holes and excavate the sand and soil. We also need to pay attention to the specific construction process, calculate the dinsions carefully, otherwise it’s easy to damage the buried silver coins which are valuable in themselves and related to their condition. If damaged, they are worthless and can only be sold as silver. Gold coins are less of a concern because in the 18th century, Spain mainly minted silver coins, and the condition of the gold coins was poor, not as valuable as those minted in France and England at the ti,” said the geologist.
