The sun was scorching hot, and it was almost twelve noon. This was the hottest time of the day. Although it was already late autumn, in Loulan, only summer and winter existed, and the so-called winter was not cold. It's just that there will be a cool breeze at night.

Without much natural protection, no hills, no walls to block the wind and sand, it can only suffer under the scorching sun. .

At this time, no one in the entire Loulan City can persist outdoors. The power of the autumn tiger is really fierce in the desert. Looking at the sky from the corner of the eye at a 45-degree angle, the hot sun made people wonder if the sun had exploded.

Or is it.

"Hold the grass, the sun is blowing up, why is it so hot!" Under the scorching sun, there may only be two people. Today is the day when the gold mine is open, but for the people of Loulan City, this is an ordinary day at all. They are all in their shops or at home to escape the heat, and then when night falls is when they really start doing business.

But for the two hard-working miners, now is the time for them to mine, and it is also at night.

It will be open until two o'clock in the middle of the night, and then the mine will be closed for rectification. In the second half of the night, all the sediment excavated by people will be sent away, and then the mine will be inspected to deal with some hidden dangers caused by mining.

Of course, the devoid of conscience mine managers even use a certain amount of sand to backfill the deep pits dug during the day.

But for these two current diggers, working under the scorching sun is acceptable.

"Brother Liu, let's go and rest for a while. We must work in this state and die in the sun." The old farmer complained to Liu Jianguo. He was already sweating profusely. The son poured cold water on his body again and again.

It's just that now the cold water has also turned into warm water, which can't bring him much coolness.

"Brother, if you want to rest, go and rest. I am short of money now, so I have to work quickly, and it seems that there are not many opportunities for the two of us to work, so we must cherish it, and we can't tell others about the money we made Do you know?" Liu Jianguo knew the efficiency of this gold mine to make money.

The old farmer looked at Liu Jianguo with a small deflated bag in his hand and had nothing to say.

"We just scoured such a little sand this morning. How much can we sell it for? Let's rest for a while."

"You said you've dug dog's head gold, we've been digging all morning, but we haven't seen a single dog's head gold." He still complained a bit when he spoke. And right next to them, there was a temporary shed, and three or five people were sitting in the shed and watching them work.

"Hey! Brother, come on and work hard, we are still waiting for you to quickly dig out the gold and buy it!" Several people were under the arbor, covered with large cold towels, eating ice cream and drinking frozen Coke. What's more, it's extremely comfortable. The deck chairs are just placed around, and it's so cool for people to lie on them.

Looking at these people, the old farmer said angrily: "If you want gold, you can come down and work. You can dig it for five hundred yuan. Why do so many people wait for the two of us to work?"

Liu Jianguo also looked at them curiously. These people seemed to have no shortage of money, and they were just waiting to receive their gold.

In the crowd, a fat man with a wet bath towel on his body smiled and said: "Everyone has their own job, and they perform their own duties. We are the mine's professional gold appraiser and gold buyer. That's what we do. If you go down If I leave the mine, the job will be gone. I don’t want to lose this hard-won opportunity. Besides, there are few people mining in this mine now. Who knows how many people will come in a few days, and I don’t have much time to come. Mining."

The fat man said plausibly, but judging by his expression: I just don't want to work, and I'm just waiting to take your gold to be a second-hand dealer.

But they knew that this fat man was hired by the mine, and he was also the supervisor in charge of gold mine acquisition and refining.

Liu Jianguo looked at them, then at the old farmer beside him, and finally sighed.

"Okay, Lao Ping, since you're tired, let's take a break. It's the hottest time now, go take a shower, and then have a meal. Here's a free meal. We'll have lunch at noon and dinner at night." dry food."

One sentence attracted the old farmer next to him, that is, Lao Ping in Liu Jianguo's mouth, all the creases on his face were crowded together, and with the wind and sand, his face was almost like a statue.

"Okay, okay! Let's go eat quickly, I'm going to starve to death." Lao Ping said excitedly.

Liu Jianguo took out a small pocket from his clothes, then untied the rope from his neck, opened the pocket and looked at the dots of gold dust inside, his face full of satisfaction.

Lao Ping beside him curled his lips: "How much money can you get with just such a few rough stones, don't always look at three or two hundred yuan."

As he said that, he also took out his pocket and took a closer look. Compared with Liu Jianguo, it was much worse. He had been stealing, raping and slipping all morning and didn't do much work.

But there are still gains.

"Okay, let's change the money first, don't worry about holding this thing." Liu Jianguo said.

Lao Ping also nodded, this is gold, who knows if it will be snatched by someone on the way.

"Hey, hello! Are you going to eat? If you eat, send all the gold to the exchange, and we will smelt it into gold for you for free. You can take it away or exchange it for money." The fat man said.

Liu Jianguo nodded excitedly when he heard this.

It's finally time to settle the money earned this morning.

"Let's go!" He excitedly walked over and stood beside the fat man to urge him, but he didn't dare to pull the fat man. After all, he is also the leader of the exchange. A few hundred dollars.

The fat man smiled and said: "Okay! Let's walk, it's the first day of opening. I don't think you dug much all morning, but I don't know how much."

He urged to start, and when he left, he used public transportation. When he arrived at the rail station next to him, he tapped the button twice. After a while, two rail cars arrived. Fatty and the others took one, Liu Jianguo and the old man Sit flat.

However, Liu Jianguo and the others stripped themselves to nothing before they got into the car. They were wearing a pair of boxer shorts, and their bodies were covered in dust. They were ashamed to describe them now, but their clothes were packed into a large plastic bag. , the tools are also placed in the box, only the red string is still in place.
