Chapter 2199: Chapter 2102: We’re Going to Get Rich!
This woman touched the moss in the grass on the mountain with her hand, yet she had no intention of prying open the surface soil to check the mountain’s rock formations.
Can she determine the geological changes of the mountain just by relying on a bit of surface vegetation? Isn’t that too exaggerated?
If it weren’t for Windsor Reed briefing him in advance, along with having witnessed Huo Sining’s extraordinary skill in betting on mines, Matthew might have thought the woman in front of him was crazy.
Just casually touching the ground a few times, her expression constantly changing, and muttering to herself — isn’t that exactly like a lunatic walking out of a mental hospital?
Unsure of what the woman was doing, Matthew had his doubts, yet he couldn’t get any explanation from Huo Sining. He could only uncomfortably hold back, constantly speculating, and whatever he thought of, it made his gaze towards Huo Sining become strange and complex.
By the time Huo Sining was verifying the third location, she had already reached a conclusion. However, she dutifully checked the last two places as well. Finally, she stood up straight, took a deep breath, and her facial expression unconsciously relaxed.
Seeing his wife’s expression, Gu Xu guessed the result. He couldn’t help but step forward, tenderly removing some twigs and leaves accidentally brushed onto Huo Sining’s temple, and softly said:
"Shall we head back?"
Huo Sining nodded, instinctively reaching out to grab Gu Xu’s hand, her eyes barely concealing her excitement as she said in Chinese:
"Gu Xu, this time, I’m really going to make a fortune!"
Gu Xu indulgently hugged his wife and said, half amused and half annoyed, "Since I met you, you’ve been a money-grubber. After all these years, you’re still the same, no progress at all. Can’t your husband support you?"
Huo Sining pouted, defiantly saying, "How can it be the same? Proving my existence’s value comes from earning my own money. If you support me, I would have no status. Besides, I’m not greedy for money."
Gu Xu was momentarily taken aback but then laughed silently. Upon careful thought, he realized what she said wasn’t wrong either. She loved earning money but wasn’t greedy. Back when Qingya had an earthquake, she sold her entire fifty percent share in the Jadeite mine without a word and donated all the money.
Such a generous act is something you wouldn’t find even a second person willing to do in all of Huaxia.
Gu Xu wasn’t sure what more astonishing actions this girl might take in the future, but he had already decided on this woman. No matter what she wanted to do in the future, he would be her strong support, striving to support and realize her dreams.
Back at the mining site, Windsor Reed was already waiting. Seeing Huo Sining, Windsor Reed’s eyes lit up. He hurriedly came forward and eagerly asked, "How was it?"
Huo Sining’s face was expressionless. At the sight of Huo Sining’s expression, Windsor Reed’s heart skipped a beat, and his heart sank, feeling extremely disappointed. Seems it was all for nothing.
Huo Sining found Windsor Reed’s reaction amusing and couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Hearing Huo Sining’s laughter, Windsor Reed was startled. He quickly came to his senses, realizing he’d been tricked by this little girl. He was both angry and annoyed, pretending to glare at Huo Sining angrily.
Huo Sining waved her hand, quickly putting away her laughter. She looked steadily at Windsor Reed and said seriously:
"Mr. Earl, you can let the miners all enter the site, the sooner, the better!"
At Huo Sining’s words, Windsor Reed froze, suddenly looking up, his eyes burning as he looked at Huo Sining, "You mean..."
Huo Sining nodded, "I went to five places, and I’m sure about three of them, but not the other two."
Three associated mines are enough to prove that this area probably contains a super large vein!
"Great, absolutely great!"
Thinking about the immense benefits a super large mineral vein could bring, Windsor Reed was completely thrilled. His previously tense nerves finally relaxed, and his face instantly beamed with joy, a smile almost reaching his ears, utterly immersed in the immense joy.
Not only did Huo Sining inspect the associated mines, but she also used the Heavenly Eye to conduct a comprehensive exploration of the main mining area, basically mapping out the four borders of the main mine. It can be said that the area covered by this main mine far exceeded Huo Sining’s imagination.
Perhaps it’s because the Malad Mountains are vast in their own right, so even though half of them were destroyed by that completely weathered zone, the preserved diamond mine here is still astoundingly large.
Although it’s unclear how deep this vein dives underground, at least based on the surface conditions Huo Sining could currently detect, this main mine is at least ten times larger than the large Jadeite mine she wagered on for General Badasang in the Miji Jungle two years ago.
Such a massive area brings unprecedented profits, so it was no wonder Huo Sining was so excited at the time, repeatedly grabbing Gu Xu’s hand, saying she was about to get rich.
After informing Windsor Reed of the news and providing suggestions for other suitable mining sites, Huo Sining thought she could retire in glory because the upcoming work was the extraction, not her area of expertise, and she had no obligation to stay.
What Huo Sining didn’t expect was that at this moment, Windsor Reed suddenly came to her dormitory, handing her a stack of documents.
Huo Sining was puzzled. After receiving the documents from Windsor Reed and seeing the words "partnership agreement" on top, she was stunned.
After flipping through a few pages, Huo Sining was taken aback by one of the numbers. She frowned, subconsciously raising her head to look at Windsor Reed with displeasure and said:
"Mr. Windsor, what do you mean by this? By agreeing to bet mine with you, it proved I had no objections to the price you offered. Doing this on purpose to make me uncomfortable? I’m not so desperate for money that I’d hike the price right before mining starts; that’s not my style at all!"
With a smile on his face, Windsor Reed felt more certain he hadn’t misjudged her seeing Huo Sining’s reaction.
Although Huo Sining refused, Windsor Reed couldn’t just take the agreement back. He knew very well that these were Huo Sining’s rightful earnings. Without her help, Windsor Reed would likely have missed out on this super large vein in his lifetime. Perhaps he might even have lost his wits in anger and sold the mining rights at a meager price to someone else.
Thinking of the potential outcome made Windsor Reed fearful; hence he was even more determined to hold onto this agreement.
