The news had spread like wildfire, and concerns buzzed among the netizens. Despite their worries, the relevant authorities dismissed them, placing their faith in Luo Feng’s assertion that the location was a colossal mining pit; nothing more, nothing less.

The officials had grown to trust Luo Feng’s judgment, and that trust extended not just to the netizens but also to themselves.

“Who do you think you’re disparaging? If our host says there are many down there, then there are many, without a doubt!” one declared.

“You just wait. What our host says always comes to pass!” another insisted.

“I do believe that! But since this is not an antique this time, could his predictions fall short this time around?” a third questioned.

“Of course not! Even if there is, the only costs incurred so far are some machinery. A little compensation from Old Luo for the labor costs will settle it!” a fourth retorted.

“I hope Old Luo doesn’t make a fool of himself by digging all day only to find a small surface vein!”

“Are you trying to stir up trouble?”

With machinery now aiding the excavation, Luo Feng stood to the side, overseeing the work, his hoe put aside.

By afternoon, they had dug a pit two to three meters deep, and the progress was more than satisfactory.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, one of the observers excitedly exclaimed,

“Mr. Luo, we’ve found it, we’ve found it!”

Luo Feng, followed by Gu Santong and others, curiously made his way over.

Without disturbing the ongoing construction on the site, Luo Feng, Gu

Santong, and their associates observed from a distance of five hundred meters.

In sight was the mining pit, filled with numerous stones of various sizes and appearances, including gold-bearing ore, beryl, and other minerals.

At that moment, several experts, donning safety helmets, began inspecting the pit. Their excitement grew with each discovery.

“This is fluorspar!”

“This is spodumene!”

Another expert exclaimed, thrilled. Soon, two different types of minerals had been identified.

The experts huddled together, discussing their findings. “The ores here seem to be mixed!”

“This is a normal phenomenon. Many mines have associated minerals. The main thing is to determine the principal ore!”

“Considering the depth, this is a landmark mine. Such a mine is either extremely rare and vast!”

“Let’s explore further!”

Though they had trusted Luo Feng and brought in machinery, they weren’t entirely convinced until they saw the evidence for themselves.

The consensus was that the mine had to be pierced, reaching a depth of at least forty meters. Piercing, in mining terms, meant tunneling through the mountains, making the ores accessible.

However, as they continued to dig, more types of minerals were discovered.

By the third day, the experts had ascertained that the mine was vast, having already discovered 39 types of minerals, including over a dozen rare ones.

This astonishing number not only amazed the experts but also drew attention from those outside the circle.

The discovery frequently topped hot searches.

“Mr- Gilan. voti and vonr team have worked tirelesslv these nast davs- I’ve

bought some beverages and bento boxes to provide everyone on the site with an extra meal as a token of my gratitude,” Luo Feng graciously offered.

After all, these people were mining on his behalf. Though the government would claim half of the profits, Luo Feng had ensured that these costs would not be included.

Such an effort deserved recognition.

“Little Luo, what are you talking about? What trouble? Mining a site like this is a pleasure! Besides, the government owns half, so don’t be too formal!” Mr. Guan responded cheerfully.

The sight of the supplies brought smiles to the faces of the mining team.

Who else, in other places, would offer Red Bull, beverages, bento boxes, chicken legs, duck legs, and the like?

With Luo Feng’s oversight, the living standards on this site seemed exceptional. Even the nearby villagers, who assisted the mining team, benefited.

“Little Luo, the mine you’ve discovered is extraordinary! There are already 41 types of minerals! Do you understand what that means?” Mr. Guan asked.

Luo Feng was momentarily taken aback; the number of mineral types had increased in just one morning?

“I’m not sure about the specifics, but it must be impressive!” Luo Feng replied, smiling.

“Yes, indeed. Such a large mine with so many types is rare in our country.

There’s only one other like it!”

“Is there another similar one?” Luo Feng inquired, intrigued.

“Of course! Koktokay’s No. 3 mining pit is very similar to this one. Out of more than 140 minerals in the world, Koktokay accounts for over eighty. Although the mine you’ve discovered now has just over 40 types, isn’t the excavation still incomplete? I think it will also end up with seventy or eighty types, right?”

“Moreover, judging by what we’ve explored so far, this mine appears to be much larger and deeper than Koktokay!”

Hearing this, those around were left in awe.

This mine was even more impressive than Koktokay?

That revelation was earth-shattering and utterly unexpected.

“I estimate that the difference in quantity will be more than double!” Mr. Guan asserted, his voice filled with conviction..
