Resource Tycoon Reborn

Chapter 331 The Last Hope

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, changing from a drizzle to a steady drizzle. Although Fang Mingyuan and others had raincoats to protect them, they were still miserable. But in this way, Fang Mingyuan and others were miserable.

But he felt a lot more at ease in his heart. In such a heavy rain, there would be fewer and fewer people coming here, and it would be more convenient for them to do things. Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but pray in his heart that this rain would last longer.

The longer the better!

Chen Zhong has been slowly circling the boulder with a metal detector for several times, but disappointingly, there is no response on the metal detector. This shows that there is nothing buried underground in this area.

Metal products.

Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, so they expanded the search range, but still found nothing! Fang Mingyuan still didn't give up, and expanded the search range to 100 meters around. This was a quite large range, and they detected three times in total.

More than an hour later, still no response!

At this time, the hour hand on the watch had pointed to 12 noon. Fang Mingyuan waved his hand. Everyone found a higher slope, set up a tent, made hot soup, and ate a mouthful of dry food.

Fang Mingyuan was sitting at the entrance of the tent. The cold wind brought cold raindrops and blew in from the entrance. After a while, his face became wet again.

Lin Rong came over and handed him a dry towel, but Fang Mingyuan didn't take it and just waved his hand. He was very confused now!

From the memory of the past life, in the record channel program, the treasure was buried near the boulder, and it was not very deep, just over one meter in the soil. Logically speaking, after their careful exploration

, there is no reason why it cannot be discovered!

Did I remember the wrong place? Did I remember the wrong sign? Or... because of my little butterfly wings, history has changed, and the treasure originally buried here does not exist at all in this life!

Whether it is the former or the latter, it is not good news for Fang Mingyuan. It will mean that this trip to the UK will be empty-handed and he will return with nothing! Losing face is a trivial matter.

This is what troubles Fang Mingyuan the most - it is a rare opportunity to get British cultural relics!

Lin Rong sighed softly and said: "Mingyuan, don't take this matter to your heart. It is very common for people to hunt for treasures and not carefully prepare and search for them for a year and a half. We

I've only been searching for a few days, what's there to be frustrated about?"

The corner of Fang Mingyuan's mouth twitched slightly. Could his situation be the same as others? He had a general search direction and was trying hard to find all possible clues. He was holding a "high-precision map" and looking at the strategy.

I'm looking for it. How can I not feel frustrated when I can't find it?

Seeing that he remained silent, Lin Rong sighed helplessly, reached out and took a towel to wipe the rain off his face, and said softly: "Okay, okay, even if you are unhappy, don't torture like this.

Myself, when you look like this, everyone feels uncomfortable!"

Only then did Fang Mingyuan notice that the atmosphere in the tent was quite depressing at this time. Everyone was eating in silence. There were no smiling faces, let alone laughter.

Fang Mingyuan thought to himself, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Brother Chen, have you brought any whiskey? The rain is annoying. Let's take a few sips to warm ourselves up. Let's stick to it this afternoon. When we return to London, I'll invite you all

Have a great meal! After returning home, there will be a mysterious big red envelope for everyone."

"What kind of mysterious red envelope is this? Mr. Fang, please stop trying to impress everyone!" someone laughed.

"Guaranteed value, guaranteed to satisfy you! Unless...it seems that there is no need to unless. Everyone here, except me, seems to have children!" Fang Mingyuan chuckled.

"Young Master Fang, there's something wrong with what you said!" Chen Zhong said with a wink while getting the wine.

"Brother Chen!" Lin Rong said with a blush on her face. Fang Mingyuan only considered his male compatriots, but forgot about his secretary!

"Secretary Lin doesn't count, we are talking about a man!" Fang Mingyuan shouted quickly, "Secretary Lin is a female compatriot, and this time female compatriots have preferential treatment, which is different from you!"

"Young Master Fang, this is not allowed. Men and women are equal!" someone shouted, "This is the basic principle that the company has always flaunted!" Most of them have followed Fang Mingyuan for many years. Except when doing business, Fang Mingyuan has always been the same as them.

, never act like a boss, so these people are not afraid that this will make Fang Mingyuan unhappy!

"Tch! This time we are doing private work! What does it have to do with the company!" Fang Mingyuan said with a look of contempt on your face, "I personally pay for it, of course I will give it to you as I please! I will give it to you,

It’s impossible not to take it; if I say I won’t give it to you, I won’t give it to you, and I can’t even take it!”

Everyone in the tent immediately burst into laughter.

"Hey, be quiet, Mr. Fang made a promise in public. If we want to successfully achieve our goal this time, we have to eat and drink. There will be benefits after returning home! When did Mr. Fang lie to us?"

Chen Zhong clapped his hands and said to his subordinates.

"No!" everyone said in unison.

"Okay, everyone, please stick to it this afternoon!" Chen Zhong handed out the wine and said, "Don't drink too much. If you drink too much, you will get into trouble. Let me see if you still have the nerve to take the red envelope from Mr. Fang!"

Soon, everyone drank, picked up their belongings, and started working in the afternoon.

But this time, Fang Mingyuan personally took the metal detector into battle and circled around the boulder.

One circle, two circles, three circles...the circle became wider and wider, and Fang Mingyuan's eyebrows became more gloomy.

"Mingyuan, is there something wrong with this metal detector?" Lin Rong couldn't help but ask.

"No, the metal detector is normal." Chen Zhong said softly. At noon, he took the time to bury the dagger he carried with him in the soil, tried it with the metal detector, and got a reaction soon!

When the radius of the circle exceeded fifty meters, Fang Mingyuan stopped. He had a hunch that if he continued like this, he would get nothing in the end!

Fang Mingyuan had a headache. He knew that metals buried underground and detected through thick soil layers would be affected by the geological structure. The stratum contains various minerals, and they would also cause metal detection to generate signals. Some

The signal of the mineral will cover up the signal of the metal and create an illusion. Anyone who has used a metal detector has this experience. As the probe approaches the mound, stones, and bricks, an alarm will sound. This phenomenon is called "mineralization."

"Response". But today, what he encountered was that the metal detector never responded!

Why is this? Could it be that butterfly wings really work?

Fang Mingyuan handed the metal detector to Chen Zhong on the side, walked up the hillside, lifted the hood of his raincoat, and let the cold rain fall on his head! Soon, his hair was soaked with rain.

It flowed down along the temples. Upon seeing this, Lin Rong hurriedly rushed over, put the hat on him again, pulled him and walked towards the tent! In such a cold weather, if he got caught

If you have a cold, a cold, or a fever, things will get worse!

"Rong Rong, leave me alone, let me calm down for a while!" Fang Mingyuan shook off her hand and said seriously.

Lin Rong looked at him for a long time, and after confirming that he was serious, she stamped her feet and rushed back to the tent. She took out a dry towel of her own from her backpack and ran back one step at a time.

, she slipped twice and made mud streaks on her face.

Fang Mingyuan was still standing on the hillside looking at the huge stone in a daze. Lin Rong wiped his hair and said, "Are you so sure it's this stone?"

"Yes! That's it!" Fang Mingyuan said categorically, "I remember it clearly. Did you notice that corner of the stone? It's straight like a stone wall! Could it be that we have seen other similar ones in the first two days?

of……"

Fang Mingyuan's voice suddenly stopped. Lin Rong glanced at him strangely, only to see his eyes staring blankly ahead. Lin Rong followed his gaze and saw that it was a piece of cow that according to Chinese parlance, was called a lying cow.

The stone is about ten meters away from the southeast corner of the boulder. Although compared with the boulder, this stone is insignificant and completely out of proportion, but it still occupies several square meters of space!

"Mingyuan? Mingyuan?" Lin Rong pushed Fang Mingyuan worriedly and shouted in his ear.

Fang Mingyuan was shocked, woke up, and strode towards the sleeping stone without saying a word. Lin Rong didn't know what happened to him, so she could only follow him quickly.

Fang Mingyuan walked to Woniu Stone, walked around it a few times, and looked at the surrounding terrain. He noticed that on the west side of Woniu Stone, there was a small slope! The slope was not steep, and there was a grassland below.

"Brother Chen!" Fang Mingyuan shouted loudly. Chen Zhong immediately ran over.

"Look, how can we get this stone away from here!" Fang Mingyuan said urgently.

"Take it away? Where to take it?" Chen Zhong was confused by some Zhang Er monks. Fang Mingyuan did not like to collect stones on weekdays, and in his opinion, there was nothing special about this stone. In China, it was not something he wanted to do.

How much do you want?

"You can take it anywhere, but just move it away!" Fang Mingyuan waved his hand and said, "Can you do it?"

"Young Master Fang...are you suspecting that something is under this rock?" Chen Zhong suddenly came to his senses and asked with some uncertainty.

"Yes! I suspect it's underneath it!" Fang Mingyuan said firmly.

Chen Zhong didn't ask any questions, gathered everyone together, and took out the shovel from his luggage. After a few people gathered together, they started digging around the stone...
