Scientific Travel

Chapter 27 Mining Gold

Just as Deng Yin had predicted, the cold weather did indeed affect the plants. The grove of trees in the back mountains looked like it was hibernating from a distance, with its leaves completely still.

Trees are probably the strongest plants; if they don't move, other plants certainly won't be much better.

It's already August, and I haven't bought any of this month's special offers yet.

Deng Yin: "System, I want to buy a product that costs one point this month."

"Congratulations, host, on obtaining the Treasure Bottle."

"What is a multi-treasure bottle?" Please don't guess it's a bottle called "multi-treasure". The first product Deng Yin bought was called "hundred-treasure bottle", but he later found out that it was just a pretty vase with no other use.

There are no flowers to be seen on Heze Star. The treasure bottle is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, so it can't hold anything else. This is the most unjust money Deng Yinhua has ever spent.

"The multi-purpose bottle can hold up to ten tons of liquid. It contains 10,000 identical compartments, each holding a maximum of 1000 grams of liquid. The name and purpose of the liquid will be displayed on the compartments."

! ! ! ! ! ! !

This is what you call a multi-treasure vase; that other kind of vase is just a bottle at best.

The multi-purpose bottle seems tailor-made for collecting plant sap, making it hard not to have some thoughts about it.

Could it be that the system is deliberately retaliating, letting her draw the Treasure Bottle only after the mission is completed and it's no longer needed?

A bottle that looks useful, but its usefulness has expired.

If that's true, then the system's wishful thinking has backfired.

For Deng Yin, there are no useless things, only things whose purpose has not yet been found.

I'm going mining today, so I might as well dig up some plants while I'm at it.

The metal detector is different from Deng Yinna's; it's more detailed.

It can not only detect which type of metal is at a distance, but also the quantity of the metal.

With limited space remaining, we definitely need to find a gold mine first.

The nearest gold mine is 43 kilometers away from Dengyin; it is a small gold mine.

Don't underestimate the small size of electric bikes; they can go fast. The roads outside the city are rough and bumpy, and even though electric bikes have shock absorption, you can still feel the stones on the ground.

Fortunately, there was no one around. Deng Yin drove as fast as he could without overturning the car, and arrived at his destination in less than two hours.

It could have been even faster. Deng Yin picked up every plant he saw along the way. If he hadn't left some space to collect the soil, it wouldn't have taken him three hours to get there.

It's called a gold mine, but as far as the eye can see, it's all flat.

Deng Yin didn't have much space left, but fortunately the gold mine wasn't deep either. A second later, a hole appeared on the ground that was just big enough to fit Deng Yin inside.

Deng Yin jumped into the hole and entered the space just before landing, waiting two seconds before coming out.

It truly lives up to its reputation as a small gold mine; it's incredibly large inside.

Deng Yin didn't bring any lighting equipment, so he could only use the headlights of his electric vehicle as a makeshift substitute.

This was Deng Yin's first time seeing a gold mine. She had thought a gold mine was all gold, but she was surprised to find that the gold in front of her was less than one-fifth of the entire mine.

"System, do you have anything that can refine gold, the cheapest kind?"

"Yes, gold liquid. Any substance except gold will dissolve in gold liquid, and it only requires four gold coins."

"It's worth it, it's worth it," Deng Yin repeatedly told himself. "Can a single dose of gold solution dissolve this entire gold mine?" If so, it would be even more worthwhile.

"Yes, the gold content won't decrease because of dissolved substances. It will dissolve no matter how many gold mines you dig."

value!

"I bought it."

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained the Golden Water."

As expected of its name, "Golden Water," it truly is golden in color, and it seems to contain gold dust, making it look sparkly.

The container for the gold solution was a large, golden box, containing at least 10 liters of gold solution. Each side of the box was two centimeters thick.

These four points were well spent, and they even gave away such a big gold chest.

Seeing Deng Yin staring intently at the box, the system completely guessed what she was thinking. "This isn't made of gold, it's imitation gold."

What is imitation gold? Is it different from real gold?

"Imitation gold is a man-made metal with properties no different from gold."

"Then this is gold. If I melt this box down, I can use it as gold coins to upgrade my space!" This box is so thick, I don't need to melt it all down, just grind down half of it.

"No." The system voice was no longer the usual system tone, but a more human-like one, with a hint of schadenfreude if you listened closely. "We don't accept counterfeit money."

This was the first time Deng Yin had heard the system speak like this.

That sounds awful.

Since it won't work, then forget it. Anyway, there are enough gold mines here, enough to upgrade the space to at least a thousand.

Deng used the space to cut the gold ore into chunks. The gold melted the substance very quickly, and a large chunk of gold ore dissolved in it in just a few seconds.

Time was not visible here, and Deng Yin didn't know how much time had passed. Anyway, he was hungry, but he couldn't see anything in the golden water in front of him. It seemed like there wasn't a single gram of gold.

Deng asked dejectedly, "System, is there gold in here?"

Yes, 5G.

......

Given that a gold coin weighs 16g, and Deng Yin has now mined about a ton of gold ore, guess how much more gold ore he needs to mine to find another gold coin.

"I quit." Deng Yin lay on the ground, his body spread out in a starfish shape.

After lying there for about fifteen minutes, Deng Yin took out a bowl of food made by Uncle Li from her spatial storage. Since fires couldn't be lit in the mine, she set up a small pot in her spatial storage, and in less than five minutes, the soup in the dish started to bubble.

This dish is called Spicy Wings. It's a fiery red color, made with dried chilies, chili powder, and chili pieces. The pungent aroma is irresistible, and as the steam rises, it makes the pig next to me shed tears.

"Pfft." Deng Yin couldn't help but laugh out loud when he saw the pig crying.

The system's laughter echoed in my mind.

Tsk, I didn't expect them to have the same low threshold for laughter.

Soon, Deng Yin's smile faded.

A dish that can make a pig cry must be extraordinary to eat. Although it's spicy, it's a fragrant kind of spiciness, not a dry spiciness.

Deng Yin had just eaten three chicken wings when the spiciness made his nose run.

After that, I basically ate five chicken wings and drank a bowl of water. My lips were slightly swollen and bright red.

"belch--"

On the surface, Deng Yin only ate a bowl of spicy chicken wings, but in reality, she also drank six bowls of water.

I was lying on the ground because I was too tired to move, but now it's because I can't straighten my back.

The system looked at Deng Yin, unsure of what to say.

How could someone eat themselves into such a state after just one meal?

Is it really that delicious?

The system has collected a lot of energy these days, enough to condense into a physical form in at least a minute. It originally thought that Deng Yin would probably ask it if it wanted to eat, and it even prepared the polite lines.

I can't believe this person is so rude, eating all the food by themselves!

Eat up, and get a big fat man weighing 800 pounds as soon as possible!

When that time comes, if you can't get a ride on an electric scooter, you'll have to walk everywhere you want to go.

The system fumed, completely unaware that it had once said it fed on energy, and Deng Yin had no idea it could also eat human food.

Or perhaps, it knows this all along...

It's all because these chilies were too spicy!
