Thomas was the first guy to rush into the beach. He knelt on the ground and held the river sand in his hand. He opened his mouth and his eyes were shining. In the end, he almost lay on the ground. It is estimated that if it were not difficult to digest, this guy would definitely grab a few handfuls of golden sand and stuff them into his mouth.

Thomas was excited, but others were not much better. Zhang Shun squatted on the beach and refused to get up. Long Guozhang touched his beard and didn't know what he was laughing at. Even Chen Ping, who had seen the world, muttered with Jinsha, and his eyes were full of golden light.

Satisfied, so satisfied. Everyone was stunned by the golden beach. They not only walked carefully, but also looked afraid of trampling on the gold, and even their voices were much lower.

Among the whole group of people, only Li Mo frowned slightly. It was not that he was indifferent to the river bay in front of him, but that the nearby landforms made him a little confused. After all, hundreds of years have passed, and he knew that there was nothing else to refer to the location of the gold mine except the river bay. Now the amount of gold in the sand on the beach is very There are many, but compared with the real mineral veins, these can only be regarded as appetizers.

And as long as the real vein is not found for a day, his plan will not be implemented for a day, so at this moment, he is more concerned about where the gold vein in his memory is.

After everyone slowly recovered from the joy, Li Mo gathered everyone together and told them what he thought. According to his almost, he and his people must locate the real gold mine within a month, and Thomas, the guy who inherited his adoptive father's rich prospecting experience, was the most critical.

Now, not only Chen Ping, but also Thomas has regarded Li Mo as a real gold master. Hearing that these golden sands were just residues from the groundwater in the big veins, everyone took a few mouthfuls of cold air again, especially Thomas. Without saying a word, he rolled up his sleeves and pulled Li Mo to find the mine.

Fortunately, Chen Ping was not as excited as others. He quickly calmed down and considered that he had been out for several days, and the ship must be very anxious, so he suggested to divide into two groups, one with Thomas as the main one, continue to search for veins nearby and be ready to build a camp, while the other group will immediately work with the army. Ship all the materials and machinery needed for mining on the ship, and strive to extract the first batch of gold as soon as possible.

Li Mo accepted Chen Ping's suggestion and finally decided that Zhang Shun and Long Guozhang would stay with three people to protect Thomas and continue to look for the vein, while the others immediately returned to the army.

Under the impetus of joy, several people quickly returned to the ship, but Li Mo did not immediately announce the news, but concentrated the core personnel in the captain's room.

The narrow cabin is full of people. In addition to Li Fu and Qiaoxi's family members, Chen Ping and the people who ran out with him accounted for the majority. Since Li Mo showed his hand, Long Guozhang and Chen Heisei's own people, these people have also expressed their willingness to follow, and now they have become the main force in the hands of Master Li.

In order to ensure safety, Chen Ping also left a few people to block the hatch and passage, just in case. It was not until everything was ready that Li Mo told everyone that he was ready to stay here for development and told everyone the news of the gold mine.

Gold is worthy of being the most attractive thing in the world. In Li Mo's plan, it is a big pie of ** talent to build a team. Under his institation, even Li Fu, who has always been old, was persuaded to stay here to have a look first, instead of insisting on following Li Guo. Zhang asked to take the young master to England.

The core personnel did not object, and Li Mo finally breathed a sigh of relief, and the rest was the ordinary people on the ship.

"Young master, I think it's too late." When he said that he was going to ask everyone about whether to stay, Chen Ping, who had gradually become Li Mo's right-hand man, immediately shook his head to stop him.

"Why?" Li Mo asked.

Chen Ping thought for a moment and continued, "Master, didn't you say that? If we want to develop here, we must first ensure that the secrets of the gold mine are not leaked, so I think we should do it too!"

"Do it?" Li Mo immediately understood what Chen Ping meant. In fact, on the way back, the two had studied the countermeasures after returning to the ship. In order to ensure that the secret of the gold mine was not known to outsiders, some people, especially the guy who was preparing for silver humiliation, must be completely eliminated.

With Chen Ping's words, Li Mo felt that he was still too conservative, because Chen Ping not only proposed to clean up some unstable factors, but also proposed to kill all those who wanted to go back. Moreover, this proposal was also approved by everyone. Even the small girl chose to nod for the safety of the young master. .

However, Li Mo is still Li Mo. He is not afraid of killing people. Naturally, he should use the method of living in troubled times. His ancestors have made these truths very clear. Although he knows that Chen Ping's words are reasonable, as a traveler in the era of the rule of law, he is especially a person who has been able to enter freely in the republican [***] team. The technical expert asked him to do something against those innocent people, but he still couldn't do it.

Finally, under everyone's gaze, he chose a compromise, that is, not to announce the gold mine news first, and wait for those who want to leave to leave before saying it.

Although Chen Ping and Li Fu still think this is unreliable, they no longer speak in the face of the young master's insistence.

That night, Zhao Long first took the lead. Several guys who had robbed in the cabin and were directly thrown into the sea. Because everyone hated these people, they did not cause much reaction. It was not until the next morning that Li Mo took the lead and gathered everyone on the deck and told them. Everyone made his choice and provided two ways.

One is to stay with him, and the other is to drive back by boat.

Originally, Li Mo was very worried. After all, even the small size, there were less than 300 people on the ship at this moment. If he walked too much, I'm afraid that even the gold pickers would be dissatisfied, but soon he was relieved. He was not only relieved, but also puzzled.

Because the news of the gold mine has not been announced yet, except for another person who is still hesitating, everyone else chose to stay, which makes Li Mo very strange. They all say that the Chinese are the most homesick. How can they all stay? Is the young master's spirit too powerful?

Soon Li Mo knew the answer, because most of these people were poor fishermen, and often their families ate and lived on the boat. After being captured by Rudolph, they had no relatives. In addition, there were many miscellaneous taxes in the Qing Dynasty at this time, and corrupt officials were rampant in the countryside, and they were waiting to die when they went back.

Since he came out, whether it is passive or active, it is better to break through, not to mention that this life was saved, even if it was sold to him to Master Li, so they all chose to stay.

Since everyone chose to stay, Li Mo began to arrange mining. At this moment, everyone knew that Master Li had found the gold mine and jumped up one after another, secretly glad that he did not choose to go home.

Because the river to the inland of Skagüey is too narrow and urgent, the big ship could not pass at all. In addition, without the help of animal power, how to transport materials and machinery to the bay made Li Mo very headache. Fortunately, Chen Ping was experienced and proposed to use the method of rafts and artificial fiber, and finally transported the materials on the ship to the beach.

With the concerted efforts of everyone, the camp was quickly built. Watching the rows of low wooden houses being built, everyone was full of joy. Only Li Mo stood alone on the bay and watched Thomas teach everyone how to pan for gold. He was a little worried.

----

Li Mo stood alone on the bank of the river. This period of day passed quickly and full, but somehow, he was always a little nervous.

It has been half a month since the discovery of the river bay, and there is still no news about the vein. Although Thomas urgently trained several people to help him find it together, the range of the tributaries of the river is really too large, and most of them are dense primitive jungles. I'm afraid it's not so fast to search by manpower alone.

What's more worrying is the weather. The Yukon River crosses northern Canada and the whole of Alaska. The cold current from the north makes it only a few months to work here. Seeing that midsummer getting shorter day by day, it is not urgent is false. After all, the golden sand on the beach can only be mined in summer. If you want to truly develop, It is necessary to dig out the underground vein, which can not only avoid the severe cold on the surface, but also not delay gold mining.

But where is the damn vein?

Just as Li Mo was worried about changing too much of the landscape around him, in the distance, he washed off his disguise and restored his daughter's small body. He ran over panting and shouted, "Young master, come on, something's wrong!"

"What's wrong?" Hearing the small call, Li Mo hurriedly ran to the camp. On the way, he met Chen Ping and Zhao Long, who also got the news. Soon, the three returned to the camp, and now the center of the camp was already full of people. When everyone saw the young master coming back, they immediately made way.

When he saw the scene in the middle of the crowd, he was shocked.

There were three strong men lying in the middle of the crowd. Two of them were full of arrows. A large amount of blood loss caused them to pale, and there was only one breath left. Although the other young man was not so exaggerated, he also counted arrows in his body, especially the one on his thigh, which almost penetrated the whole leg and stomach, and the arrowheaded from the outside. It came out on the side, and the blood was particularly scary.

But strangely, although the young man was in a coma, he still held a big stone in his arms, and his fingers were white, but he did not let go. In desperation, everyone had to lay him flat on the ground and hand him over to Fu Bo and Li Qiang.

Both of them have been with the army. Whether it is Li Qiang or Fu Bo, they have followed Li Guotai for many years and have been particularly experienced in dealing with this kind of trauma.

"How's it going? Is there any help?"

Li Mo walked to the young man, looked at Fu Bo and Li Qiang, who were cleaning up his wounds, and squatted down to ask.

Li Qiang is a standard cold-faced martial arts idiot. He is less talkative. He only thinks that if he gains more power, and defeats Zhao Long as his biggest goal in life. Unfortunately, every time he competes, this guy is always so unlucky.

At this moment, when I saw the young master asking, he had a consistent style. He pointed to the distance and then to the one in front of him. Only five words popped out: "No, this is okay."

"Oh, ah, you really cherish your words like gold!" Li Mo turned his head and turned to the old housekeeper Li Fu.

"This boy is fine." Li Fu patted the young man's thigh and pointed to the side: "The two of them are more dangerous. They are both injured by arrows, and it should be an hour! Judging from the wound, at least more than 20 arrows have been hit, and a few places have been shot at the point. I guess..." Speaking of this, he sighed and shook his head.

With Li Fu shaking his head, the onlookers' hearts were shrouded in a layer of haze, and Li Mo frowned. Now that the camp has just been established, it has been attacked by unknowns. If it continues like this, I'm afraid it will create sincerity and benevolence and panic. In that case, let alone mining, I'm afraid it will be basically born. Life is difficult to maintain.

Looking at the unconscious young man, Li Mo suddenly thought of one thing. According to historical records, the gold mine here was not discovered until 1896, but what about now? Not only Thomas knows, but also Rudolph knows that although there are many people here, there are many gold diggers like old Thomas this year, and it is impossible to have no news.

The question is that both the historical records and the guides of that year said that the gold mine was discovered in 1896, which means that neither Rudolph nor Thomas finally got the gold mine, so where did they go?

When I thought of traveling, I heard my partners say that due to the chaotic gun management in the 19th century, gold diggers often carried a large amount of arms for safety, and there were many things to eat black, especially the large-scale conflict later, which made all mining sites covered with white bones.

Rudolph died, but Li Mo came. Although this little butterfly has begun to incite its wings and the wheels of history have begun to shift little by little, it is all based on prophetic foresight, but what about now? Those things that are not recorded at all will kill everyone!

Now, Alaska's gold rush has not yet entered the most **, so what can make Rudolph and Thomas disappear must be...

"Did it, why didn't I think of it? It must be an Indian!" Thinking of this, Li Mo is already in a cold sweat. In fact, if he is prepared, he is not afraid of those natives, but now everything in the camp has just begun, and he, including himself, is completely unfamiliar with the dense jungle and environment here. If he is suddenly attacked at this time, the consequences will be very serious.

"Brother Chen, send someone to find all the people who go out. From now on, suspend the search for mineral veins and immediately strengthen the camp alert. Without my order, no one is allowed to leave the one-mile range of Hewan!"

"Yes." Chen Ping quickly took the order and left. Li Mo looked at the young man who was in a coma and said to Li Qiang, "Do your best to cure him. Tell me as soon as he wakes up."

Li Qiang didn't reply, just nodded.

"It seems that they are going to kill again!" After sweeping his eyes at the people around, Li Mo took a deep breath.
