Live Stream Treasure Hunt: I Made Profits Million Times Over-Chapter 62 - -Guess correct! A gold mine worth billions!(1st update, Cheer me with Power Stones!)
Daniel stared at the strong man for a long time, seemingly making a decision, "Never mind, I think a dead man’s mouth is the most reliable. I’d better kill you."
Hearing these words, the muscular man fell to his knees in fright, "No, no, no! Please, let me go! I swear to God, if I leak any information about this, may my tongue rot!"
Daniel was just trying to scare him.
Hearing the man’s repeated assurances, Daniel let him dispose of his companion’s body, clean up the scene, and then let him go.
In any case, he was just an ordinary man now.
If not for self-defense, he still found the idea of killing a bit unsettling.
Having sent the burly man away and stowed away his Desert Eagle, Daniel turned back to look at the gold ore.
What was exposed before him was a small piece of gold ore, about the size of two fists.
Its surface was pitted and looked rather ugly.
Yet the gleaming gold hue was irresistibly thrilling.
Gold, the most value-retaining currency in the world.
Its value might fluctuate, but it would never collapse to worthlessness.
Its inherent worth was always a rarity to humans.
Even this tiny exposed portion of gold was worth millions.
Daniel knew that there was much more to it.
Glancing back, he saw a variety of tools left behind by the two men, including a shovel.
Standing up, he picked up the shovel and started to dig around the gold ore.
In just a couple of minutes, he had dug a knee-deep hole.
The lower half of the gold ore was now exposed.
The irregularly-shaped ore filled the entire hole.
Daniel sized it up — it was about half his height.
This large chunk of ore weighed well over a hundred kilograms, with seventy to eighty kilograms being pure gold, excluding impurities.
No wonder it was worth over thirty million!
Daniel was overjoyed.
He picked up a hoe from nearby and aimed at the buried side of the ore.
With a swift swing, he lodged the hoe into it.
Using the strength of his arms, he dislodged the entire ore.
Damn, it was huge!
Daniel couldn’t help but rejoice.
However, his joy quickly turned to concern.
The location he was in was quite remote.
It would take him over an hour to walk back to where he had parked his car.
He could walk, but carrying an ore weighing over a hundred kilograms was another story.
But there was no other choice, as he couldn’t drive the car in.
He could only carry it on his own.
Luckily, he was stronger than the average person, and he could easily lift the over one-hundred-kilogram ore onto his shoulder.
But it was a test of endurance to cover the long distance.
It took him almost three hours to return, compared to the hour it had taken him to get there.
Tossing the ore into the back of his car, Daniel plopped into the driver’s seat, too tired to even pant heavily.
He chugged down five bottles of mineral water and rested for over half an hour before he recovered.
For the first time, Daniel felt that those adventurers who loved to go treasure hunting in the wilderness were not normal.
Even if they discovered a big treasure, just carrying it out of the mountains was a major challenge.
Starting the car, he sped off.
By the time he reached home, it was already midnight.
As he drove into the yard, he noticed that the lights were on in the house.
Thinking about the people he had offended recently, he instinctively reached for the gun on his waist.
As he got out of the car, he saw Sophia peering out from the house.
"Honey, you’re finally back!"
Daniel sighed in relief and waved, "Oh, it’s you. I thought…"
Before he could finish, Sophia walked over and asked, "You thought what? That it might be Rachel?"
Daniel lightly tapped Sophia’s head, joking, "I really want to crack your head open and see what’s inside. Weren’t you supposed to be studying for an exam at home? Why did you come here?"
Sophia blushed and threw herself into Daniel’s arms, saying, "I... I just missed you."
"Speaking of which, why are you home so late? Spill it, were you out on a date with some beauty?" Sophia teased.
Daniel shot back, exasperated, "Not every moment in a man’s life is about sex, we have other important things to do, you know."
Sophia paused and retorted, "There are things more important than sex for men?"
Daniel was flabbergasted.
He felt like Sophia was becoming excessively bold.
She was once a pure and innocent girl, and even their first meeting after many years had reaffirmed that image.
But how did she turn out like this after being with him?
Was she portraying a contrast? Pure in public and wild in private?
That was... simply cool!
A wave of excitement washed over Daniel, but his expression quickly changed when he saw Sophia’s ’I hit the nail on the head, didn’t I?’ look.
He put on a serious face and said, "The most important thing for a man, of course, is making money. How else would I afford a stunning woman like you? You’d be snatched away by some other wealthy man."
Sophia made a face, "You make it sound like we women only care about material conditions."
"Did you go to an auction today? Why didn’t you take me? I wanted to go again after the last time!" Sophia complained.
Daniel pointed to the back of his truck, "I was there only for a bit, the rest of the time I was busy fetching that thing."
Sophia followed his gesture curiously, spotting the gold ore resting in the truck bed.
The dim light in the yard still allowed the ore to gleam with a subtle, golden luster.
When Sophia saw what it was, she was shocked speechless.
"This... is gold?" Sophia asked incredulously.
Seeing Daniel nod, Sophia was dumbfounded.
"Oh my God, it’s massive! Where did you get it from?"
Daniel replied, "I found it on the land for which the certificate was in the container I won at the auction."
Sophia’s eyes widened, "Wow, you’re so lucky! Was this the only gold ore on that land?"
She clambered onto the truck and knelt down next to the gold ore, nearly drooling over it.
Women are easily attracted by such things.
Daniel laughed, "Really, how much more do you want? An entire gold mine?"
Sophia looked up, nodded seriously, and said, "Of course. Such a large piece of gold ore wouldn’t just appear out of nowhere. If there are no gold mines that have been excavated nearby, it might indicate a gold vein."
Gulp!
Daniel swallowed hard. He had been so engrossed with the gold ore that afternoon that he completely forgot about this possibility.
He quickly took out his phone and opened the map.
He searched around the marked land area several times and confirmed that there were no gold mines nearby.
Which means, there was a very high chance of a gold vein existing near the spot where he found this gold ore! And the nearby land belonged to him.
If he found a gold mine, it would belong solely to him!
Daniel couldn’t help but gasp at the thought.
Even a very small gold vein could yield several or even dozens of tons of gold!
Worth nearly ten billion StellarCoins!
The thought of this possibility made Daniel increasingly restless.
He dialed Abel’s number and called him and his brother over to his house.
To Sophia’s astonishment, he picked up the gold ore and headed into the house.
Upon reaching the living room, he gently laid the ore on the ground and took a seat on the sofa.
Sophia couldn’t help but ask, "Honey, are you Superman?"
How casually he lifted such a massive rock!
No wonder he could last so long in bed. His physique was truly formidable!
Soon, Abel and Allen walked in.
The moment they entered, they were startled by the gold ore on the floor.
"What on earth???"
"Is this... could it be... gold?"
It wasn’t their keen sight, but rather the enormous gold ore that, under the chandelier’s light, shone dazzlingly from all angles.
It was impossible to ignore!
Daniel nodded.
The brothers were completely shocked.
Allen exclaimed, "Holy cow, is this for real?"

"Dan, we know you’re rich, but you don’t have to rub it in our faces like this, right?"
The usually calm Abel couldn’t help but say, "If you’ve called us here to show off, then congratulations, you’ve achieved your goal!"
"I hate you, show-off!"
"Come on, brother, let’s go!"
With that, Abel turned to leave.
Daniel quickly called out to them, "Wait, I called you guys over because I have a business proposal for you."
A business proposal?
Upon hearing these words, Abel turned back, his eyes filled with doubt.
Daniel patted the sofa, "Don’t worry, sit down, let me explain everything."
Once the two had obediently seated themselves, Daniel began, "Remember the land certificate I got from the shipping container this afternoon?"
Abel and Allen nodded.
Daniel pointed to the gold ore on the ground, "I found this gold there."
Before the brothers could express their surprise, he continued, "I suspect there may be a whole gold vein there. You guys have more connections than I do, so I was hoping you could find some reliable professionals to explore it. The only thing is, these people have to be trustworthy, and this news cannot be leaked out."
