Road to becoming the wealthiest: Starting From Treasure Hunting in the Cabinets Chapter 1419 - 686 - Hundredfold Return2

Once cleared up, the entrance to the cave expanded enough for an adult to enter while bending down.

Douglas Cooper went in first, feeling and clearing debris as he went, with the team mbers following behind and taking over in relay.

"The space inside is quite big!" Douglas’s voice echoed from the cave entrance, "It’s even a deluxe room, not a bad deal at all, only... it bloody stinks!"

"Hahaha!"

The team mbers outside burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Could a badger’s dwelling sll nice?

Soon, the interior was cleaned out. The team mber who had caught the badger started skinning it and extracting its oil.

In the absence of modern dicine, this stuff was very effective for treating burns. Even now, many folks, whether they had used it or not, knew it could treat burns.

However, it was hard to find.

After all, it’s a protected animal.

Once they had cleaned out the interior, Douglas erged and pointed at a pile of centuries-old "garbage" in front of Sean Knight and said,

"Boss, that’s all there is on the surface."

Nothing worth money, just an iron sword, the sheath looked pretty good with its pattern but it had already rusted away.

Sean smiled and bent down to walk inside.

Douglas laughed, just as he had expected!

Hehe! How could the boss make a move and co up empty handed?

The other team mbers hadn’t seen Sean’s "miraculous" ability, and didn’t understand what cryptic ssages were being shared, but one team mber imdiately bent down and followed inside.

There indeed was a foul sll inside. Although the stuff had been cleaned up, the odor wasn’t going to dissipate any ti soon.

Upon entering the cave, Douglas imdiately turned on the flashlight and started lighting up the cave’s interior.

Since the outer chamber was big, Douglas started with this "living room." Sean, however, paid no attention to him and continued walking inward.

It must be said, the people who dug this cave back then really used substantial materials. After so many years, it hadn’t collapsed.

The sll was even stronger inside. Sean simply held his breath and then ca to the soil bed.

Douglas had already approached, and looking at the feces on the soil platform, he asked in confusion,

"Boss, this earth platform..."

"Dig it up!" Sean pointed at the location.

Douglas’s eyes lit up, and he took the short shovel from a team mber and started digging — he had just returned the shovel to the team mber.

After two or three shovelfuls, the entrance began to show.

Douglas had good eyesight, and he could imdiately see sothing inside.

His movents grew even quicker, and he directly enlarged the entrance a bit and crouched down to carefully pull out the contents.

Douglas didn’t open it, but looked up at Sean.

"Open it and see," Sean said with a smile, knowing the animal skin package contained items like dried at and salt.

Douglas excitedly opened the animal skin package, only to be sowhat disappointed. The dried at and salt had long since changed color, but one could still roughly make out what they were.

Douglas carefully finished inspecting it and tossed it to the side.

He had good eyesight and could see that there was another package in the cave.

If soone had taken so much care to hide these things, there had to be more than just food, right?

Douglas pulled out the remaining animal skin package, looked inside, and seeing nothing more, he grew anxious.

There had to be sothing valuable in here!

Then he looked at Sean again.

"Open it," Sean smiled, having rarely seen such an expression on Douglas’s face.

Douglas lowered his head and opened the parcel.

"Damn!" As he saw the contents, Douglas let out an expletive, "This thing..."

"It’s not glass, nor crystal," Sean knew what he was thinking, "It’s the most valuable kind."

"Damn! Damn! Damn!" At first glance, Douglas really thought it was crystal. That stuff really isn’t worth much!

But if it were sothing else...

"Let’s go outside," Sean said with a smile, "With this trip, we just made back our rent money."

"Surely more than that!" Douglas’s heart was still pounding!

If it had been crystal, the piece wouldn’t have been very big, since crystal clusters can grow quite large.

But if it were diamonds, its size was rather frightening!

He had seen the movie "Blood Diamond."

There were several large diamonds in the package, so bigger! Many smaller!

With so many diamonds, Douglas directly ignored the small pile of natural gold and other golden coins.

Carrying the package, he bent over and walked out of the cave, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, glad to be done with the stench—Sean excepted.

"Boss, what should we do with this?" Douglas held the animal skin package cautiously.

"When we get back to the castle, you take a trip and contact soone who can cut diamonds," Sean told Douglas, "Have these diamonds processed. After they’re cut, then quietly sell them in the market."

"Sell?" Douglas looked down at the parcel, "Boss, shouldn’t we hold onto them? They’re so big, they’re definitely worth keeping!"

"Then think about it. If we have this size here, could there be..." Sean drew a circle with his finger.

Douglas’s mind clicked, and he suddenly understood, "I got it!"

"Good, this task is yours," Sean smiled, "Start by finding a company that can cut them. We’ll keep this matter low-key!"

"Got it! Got it!" Douglas said excitedly, "I understand!"

Although the geological experts at the castle had not yet finished their work, with this parcel in hand, both Sean and Douglas were already certain there was a diamond mine there!
