Kobe had little care for decorum and continued with his argument.
“Tell me, why didn’t you folks from the Sakura Country take back all those railways and factories you built in the Northeast? If your government couldn’t manage that, why should you be so confident?” Luo Feng lost his patience, “If you don’t leave now, words will no longer be our tools for negotiation, but weapons. ”
‘You….”
“Stop interfering with us!”
Having said his piece, Luo Feng was met with silence from the other side. They turned and left without another word. He ignored them and continued to supervise the gold relocation.
“These items belong to our ancestors, you cannot take them away!” Kobe, noticing the substantial amounts of gold being transported to the helicopter, became enraged and attempted to stop the moving crew.
“Take these people away and keep an eye on them!”
Naturally, the captain of the border patrol would not tolerate this. After all,
they were not in Sakura Country. They were patient with harsh words, but physical obstruction would not be tolerated.
“These little gnats are really overestimating themselves! Even if their government came, retrieving the gold would likely still be difficult, what can they do?”
Luo Feng chuckled, finding the situation amusing. But after a moment of thought, he realized they may have been searching for decades without success, and the discovery of their quest by someone else was a bitter pill to swallow. It was enough to inspire them to action.
By the next day, a hundred tons of gold had already been transported away.
The patrol leader, who had been following Luo Feng closely, curiously asked, “It seems, Mr. Luo, that you have no intention of leaving the mountain yet?”
“Heh, we’ve barely scratched the surface, how could we leave now?” Luo Feng replied with a mysterious smile.
They had only discovered a hundred tons of gold so far. As long as it was confirmed to be part of the Russian lost treasure, then there was still much more hidden within Changbai Mountain. According to Luo Feng’s analysis, there could be at least another hundred tons, possibly even two hundred tons.
However, these thoughts Luo Feng kept to himself, not willing to share with anyone. The night passed uneventfully, and Luo Feng busied himself within the “treasure trove” thrice.
Shishi, who had taken medication, naturally curled up next to Luo Feng to sleep. At eight in the morning, Luo Feng awoke and freshened up, then he and the rich second-generation kids set out first. As for Shishi, they decided to let her sleep and catch up when she woke up.
“Host, are you still streaming?”
“Yeah, you’ve got so much gold already, why don’t you take a break before digging some more?”
“What’s a break? The host is soaking in the club every day!”
“With those three beauties always visiting Luo Feng’s tent at night, do you think there hasn’t been some ‘soy sauce and tofu’ happening?”
“What’s ‘soy sauce and tofu’? Can someone explain?”
Truthfully, the netizens saw Su Meiji, Qin Rubing, and Li Shishi constantly going into Luo Feng’s tent. But the only one Luo Feng had actually ‘eaten’ was Shishi.
At most, Qin Rubing and Luo Feng had shared a kiss.
The first time had been very romantic and wet.
However, that was it. Luo Feng had not found an opportunity to truly ‘do it’ with her yet.
“Activate a level three scan!”
Luo Feng too wanted to rest. With a profit of 40 billion, even after taxes, that was still a solid 30 billion. But how could he leave with so much gold still left in Changbai Mountain?
After the scan completed, the treasure markers indicated various medicinal herbs.
At noon, Luo Feng received a call from the border squad leader.
“Luo Feng, a group of people who appear to be from Japan have entered the mountain!”
“There are about a dozen groups, each with a few dozen people. In total, it looks like there are about 300 of them!”
Being part of the border patrol, the squad leader was privy to all movements in and out of Changbai Mountain.
“Heh, that’s quite a number of people. Are they armed?”
“What about knives or similar weapons?
“They didn’t have any when they got off the plane? But since they’ve gone into the mountain, they might have bought some, right?”
The squad leader began, “I’m not entirely sure what they’re up to in the mountain, but it’s not out of the question that it has something to do with you.”
Luo Feng inquired, “Have you been able to identify them?”
“We’re in the process of identification. We’ve confirmed a few of them. They’re outdoor survival experts from the Sakura Country. They’ve appeared on their reality TV shows.”
“Alright, I understand.”
After hanging up, Luo Feng chuckled to himself and began to analyze the situation.
There were three possible reasons for their arrival.
The first, similar to Kobe’s objective, they were in search of the lost gold. After all, there must be more gold in Changbai Mountain.
The second possibility was that an organization had taken notice of Luo Feng’s discovery and decided to come searching for gold as well…
The third possibility was that they were official representatives from Sakura
Country. After all, they knew better than anyone how much gold remained in Changbai Mountain. It was likely they had found it difficult to openly lay claim to the gold. Hence, they must have decided that if they searched for it themselves, there would be no risk involved.
Regardless of which group they represented, Luo Feng could only tell them that their journey had been in vain. As long as he was present, he would not let them gain the upper hand. After all, these items were left in China. They belonged to China and had no relation to others.
Following this revelation, Luo Feng did not waste any time. After all, he now had competitors and it was crucial to be vigilant. Leading his team, they began their search without rest.
Several days passed.
One morning, as Luo Feng was passing by a medicinal herb, he noticed a set of footprints in the snow. They appeared to be the size of a palm and resembled plum blossom prints.
“What kind of animal could this be?” “Well, it’s definitely not human!”
“It looks like a tiger!”
“Congratulations, host, you’ve acquired a tiger!”
“What kind of luck is this? To encounter a tiger twice in Changbai Mountain within a year?”
Flakes of snow were still falling from the sky.
From this observation, it seemed that the footprint could not have been more than an hour old. The tiger was likely nearby.
“Initiate a level three scan!”
Luo Feng calmly surveyed his surroundings. All he saw were medicinal herbs. More medicinal herbs. Only medicinal herbs.
Suddenly, a notification rang out. [ Ding! You’ve found gold! ] Luo Feng was overjoyed. He quickly excavated the gold.
“Wow, another gold bar?”
“It looks like these dogs buried the gold on the road as they transported it, didn’t they?”
“I’ve only found two so far, I wonder how many more there are!”
“They’ve hidden quite a bit! I’ve already found two that they’ve missed. I estimate there might be dozens more in the entire Changbai Mountain!”
“Since I’ve found gold here, this path must have been used to transport gold in the past!” Luo Feng started thinking and came to a conclusion.
Just like the last time, the people transporting the gold had secretly buried it along the way, intending to come back for it later. However, they had likely forgotten many of the locations. While they had managed to retrieve most of it, it was normal for some to be overlooked..
