Reborn As Super Heiress

Chapter 2193: Chapter 2096: Major Discovery

Upon hearing this, everyone instinctively looked at Huo Sining, who was leading the endeavor, including Matthew, who looked at Huo Sining with excitement when he spoke.

Everyone knew that if Huo Sining hadn’t come this time, they might have had to abandon this mine; finding the diamond deposit was entirely thanks to Huo Sining’s assured judgment.

The miners initially thought the endeavor was doomed and anticipated that they might be working for nothing, their hope turned into despair. But with Huo Sining’s appearance, their hope was reignited, making Huo Sining seem like an omnipotent figure in their hearts.

Initially, the miners were indifferent to Huo Sining’s orders to excavate the fifty-meter corridor, doing so strictly due to the boss’s command. However, having actually found the diamond deposit, their mindset completely shifted.

A top-tier gem prospector is definitely the kind of person miners rally around. Witnessing Huo Sining’s skills, their singular thought now is to follow Huo Sining diligently, feeling that working with him is incredibly rewarding.

"Since we’ve managed to extract diamonds, this shows that the complete weathering zone hasn’t destroyed this mineral vein. I think it might be due to the special rock layer you hit before. But for specifics, I need to go inside and see for myself!"

Huo Sining said with a smile.

Having seen the few pieces of diamond ore that Windsor Reed and Matthew brought, she knew their quality was decent. However, these were edge ores, so even with good quality, they wouldn’t be large. Hence, Huo Sining was eager to head into the corridor to see the scope of this deposit and whether its diamond quality was better than those edge ores.

Huo Sining’s proposal immediately received enthusiastic support from Windsor Reed and Matthew.

"Yes, let’s go in and take a look!"

Matthew nodded vigorously. At this point, any opposing thoughts he might have had flew away, and he would no longer disagree with whatever Huo Sining said.

People often don’t realize the value of something until they’ve lost it once. However, some lost things are hard to recover.

This diamond mine brought Windsor Reed and Matthew a feeling like it was a lost treasure regained. Initially sentenced to be abandoned, they now received this unexpected delight, filling both Windsor Reed and Matthew’s hearts with a sense of tremendous fortune.

Deep inside the mine corridor, Huo Sining led the way and soon reached the hollowed-out stone wall created by the miners.

Before them was unexcavated diamond ore, dotted with embedded diamond fragments. Some were large, others small, sparkling brightly under the searchlights and appeared immensely captivating.

Seeing this small facet wall, Windsor Reed was stunned, his gaze glued to the diamond deposit, unable to tear his eyes away and at a loss for words.

Standing upfront, Huo Sining gazed at the diamond chunks without much change in expression.

Although these diamonds were eye-catching, compared to the large diamonds she excavated in Oregon before, they were unimpressive.

If the whole mineral vein contained only such diamond fragments, it wouldn’t be profitable. Windsor Reed might just break even and earn a little for his efforts.

Thinking of this, Huo Sining smirked and discreetly reached out towards the stone wall while the others weren’t paying attention.

As her hand explored, Huo Sining stopped in surprise, then a smile blossomed on her face, growing brighter and more radiant by the moment.

Standing in front of this diamond deposit, the Heavenly Eye penetrated another fifty meters; within its range, Huo Sining saw plenty of new developments.

This diamond deposit didn’t disappoint. Beyond the wall, within a fifty-meter radius, there were a multitude of diamonds in various sizes, some larger than those she previously sold to Windsor Reed, and several of these large diamonds.

What excited her even more was that due to the complex mineral composition of the deposit, the diamonds exhibited a variety of colors. Just within fifty meters, the diamonds that caught Huo Sining’s eyes spanned a spectrum of colors, dizzying her with their kaleidoscopic display.

Moreover, the key issue was that the surveying distance of fifty meters didn’t reveal the edge of the mineral vein.

Beyond the Heavenly Eye’s surveying range, a vast gray area hinted, according to Huo Sining’s estimation, that the mineral vein extended quite a lengthy distance.

With this assessment, the diamond deposit covered quite a substantial area.

This diamond deposit exceeded Huo Sining’s initial expectations. If her deductions were accurate, this was not just a simple diamond vein, and thus Windsor Reed would need to adjust his mining strategy, including improving worker numbers and security measures.

Even if her deduction was incorrect, it wouldn’t matter much. Given her current survey range, it confirmed this was definitely a medium-sized deposit, meaning that Huo Sining successfully won the bet for Windsor Reed, landing a lucrative diamond deposit.

Whether to keep betting next depended on Windsor Reed’s willingness to play along.

After observing the diamond wall, Huo Sining turned slowly and addressed Windsor Reed:

"Mr. Earl, Captain Matthew, let’s head back. We’ve encountered some changes, and we may need to re-arrange our upcoming plans."

Upon hearing Huo Sining’s words, Windsor Reed and Matthew exchanged uncertain looks.

However, since it was Huo Sining who found the diamond deposit, she must have her reasons for saying this. Windsor Reed and Matthew had some doubts but decisively nodded.

Seeing Huo Sining’s serious expression, Windsor Reed felt slightly alarmed, wondering if there was a problem with the mineral vein?

His heart hung heavy with concern, yet awkwardly, he couldn’t inquire further, sweating anxiously.

Nervously, they followed Huo Sining back to the surface, to the office area, where Huo Sining called out to Matthew: "Captain Matthew, could you please fetch a map of the Malad Mountains? I need the section belonging to Mr. Earl’s mining rights, with as detailed data as possible."
