Chapter 1806 EP1808. Summer vacation (Part 2)

Because of San Francisco and Las Vegas, when people think of the gold rush, the first thing that usually comes to mind is California, which is located on the west coast of the United States, and the neighboring state of Nevada.

In fact, the gold rush that broke out at the end of the 19th century and lasted until the beginning of the 20th century was not limited to the two states of California and Nevada. Alaska, which is geographically close to the Arctic, is also a longing place for gold diggers.

The attention that broke out in that era was not much worse than that of California and Nevada.

For example, Fairbanks, the second largest city in Alaska, finally grew in size and was established because of the large number of settlers brought by the gold rush. Fundamentally speaking, the formation and prosperity of this city,

It is very similar to Las Vegas in Nevada. It can be said that it is modeled after the same model.

The 'Broken Gold' hotel where Shi Xiaolei took the girls to stay this time is located near Fairbanks.

To be precise, it is located in the suburbs fifteen kilometers away from the city, which is a bit far away but not too far.

Compared with those hotels in the city, the vegetation here at the Broken Gold Hotel is denser and the air is a bit fresher. However, if you really want to say how good the scenery is, it's really just that. At least, it's still

It is not beautiful enough to stand alone as a flock of chickens, and it is not worthy of a visit by tourists from out of town.

So, why did Shi Xiaolei choose this hotel alone?

The reason is actually very simple. It is because this hotel provides a 'gold mining experience' package, which allows guests to experience the excitement that only gold mining guests could experience in the past.

Yes, although there has been a gold rush, that does not mean that the gold mines in Alaska have been completely mined.

After all, it is located in a high latitude area, and the climate is much harsher than that of California and Nevada in the south.

If it were in California or Nevada, as long as there was still gold, the gold diggers could continue working year-round. But here in Alaska, every time the time enters October, the gold diggers have to do it because of the sudden drop in the price of gold.

When the temperature drops, I stop working and get into a warm hut to start the cat winter.

After a year, I will be unable to work for at least one third of the time.

In terms of mining efficiency, it is far behind California and Nevada in the south.

In addition, the cold climate will also bring many obstacles to the preliminary exploration work...

The enthusiasm of the gold prospectors in Alaska is really not as high as that of California and Nevada. Their exploration progress in this land is also much behind that of the southern states.

Precisely because the exploration was not thorough enough, to this day, there are still many gold resources in Alaska that have not yet been discovered, or that have not been fully exploited after discovery.

The 'Broken Gold' hotel chosen by Shi Xiaolei was built on the site of a gold mine.

"Back when the gold rush just started, because the exploration methods were relatively backward, the gold diggers did not discover that there were gold mines here. In fact, before 1950, this was an ordinary farm, and people living here

The Gardner family are just ordinary farmers."

"The turning point of fate came in 1951. At that time, Dorothy, the youngest daughter of farmer Gardner, left Alaska and went to California to study. Maybe it was because the climate in the south was warmer, or maybe it was for other reasons. In short, she wanted to go to California.

In her first year in the South, she met a young man studying at the California Institute of Technology, and they fell in love and became a couple."

"In the first year after leaving her hometown, she is a little girl with a more emotional personality. You can imagine what this little girl will choose when the holidays come. Should she stay in California with a warm climate, or return to her hometown to be with her family?

How about getting together and spending the New Year together?”

Having said this, the hotel manager James, who was the guest commentator, gave up and glanced at the girls who were listening to the story.

"You should be back here, right?" Skye met James' eyes and responded: "Otherwise, the story wouldn't be able to progress, right?"

"Hahahaha." James laughed and gave Skye a thumbs up: "Yes, that's it. Because she misses her family, her youngest daughter chose to go home to reunite without hesitation."

"Then what?" Huan Yuan asked aloud, staring at a pair of big, watery eyes.

"Don't worry, listen to what I'm going on." Making a calm gesture, James continued to tell: "Although this relationship only lasted for three years, it did not go all the way to the end. However, after the new acquaintance,

During the first year, Dorothy and the young man named Calder got along quite well."

"On the one hand, he was reluctant to separate from Dorothy. On the other hand, it was also because he was born in California with a warm climate. He had never been to Alaska and was very curious about the ice and snow world here. In short, after Dorothy made her choice, Carl

De also made a decision and planned to accompany her back to Alaska to spend the winter vacation that year."

"As I said just now, Calder studied at the California Institute of Technology." At this point, James gave in again: "Why do you mention this specifically? Can anyone guess the reason?"

While raising the question, James involuntarily turned his attention to Skye.

"Because he happens to be studying subjects related to geology?" After thinking for a moment, Skye answered again.

"That's right." James nodded vigorously: "I knew you would be able to guess the answer."

"Hmm~." Skye shrugged proudly: "After all, your question is not difficult at all, so it's quite easy to answer."

"What's going to happen next..." Looking away from Skye, James continued: "I think everyone can guess what's going on. To put it simply...the young man named Calder followed Duo

After Rosie came to this farm, by coincidence, she accidentally discovered a gold mine hidden underground."

"What happened next?" Wanting to know what happened next, Xuan Xiang couldn't help but ask again.

"Later, the farmer Gardner family made a fortune from this gold mine, and the family moved to the south where the climate is warmer."

"Where are Dorothy and Calder? Are they married?"

"Well... you should be married, I'm not sure." James shook his head and shrugged slightly embarrassed: "After the Gardner family discovered the gold mine, they sold the farm to the mining group. The next year

They moved away from Alaska. If they had not chosen to sell, but stayed as mine owners themselves, perhaps the subsequent story would be more detailed."
