Chapter 1272 1272. Digging Out (15)

An ivory hunter said with a smile: "Ha, then they are too powerful. No one knows how many ivory there are in this tundra, and no one knows where they are buried..."

The boss said seriously: "But they have a way to know, man, I know these guys, they brought a new instrument that can detect ivory buried in the ground."

Several ivory hunters around shook their heads: "How can there be such a machine? It's impossible."

The boss said: "That machine is called a nuclear magnetic penetration and feedback analysis machine. I don't know the specific principle. In short, it can emit a kind of particle towards the ground. This kind of particle is marked. It marks the density and hardness of the ivory in advance. Data such as ivory will be fed back in time when they encounter ivory underground, so it is easy for them to find this stuff.”

Seeing what he said, the ivory hunters around the counter were shocked: "Is this true? Is there really such a thing?"

"It was invented by the Americans," the boss shrugged. "It is said that it is still in the experimental stage. The real purpose of this machine is not to find ivory, but to conduct experiments."

Some people still doubt: "There is such an advanced machine? Why haven't I heard of it?"

This time it was the boss's turn to smile: "What can you hear? Do you know the identities of my fellows? You can go and inquire. They are all members of the big chaebol families in the United States. They designed the experiment of nuclear magnetic penetration and feedback analysis machines. The room is what they control."

A big man next to him nodded and said: "What Sivashebog said is true. These bastards have a lot of background. Our boss has investigated them. There are people from the Ford family among them, that is, the Ford family that produces cars."

"So powerful?" Several people were surprised.

"They are so rich, why do they come to grab food from us?" Another person said depressingly.

Sivashebog shrugged and said, "They're here to find a bastard, and to check the use of this machine by the way."

"Black Viper Bryant, I know they are looking for Black Viper." The big man who spoke before replied again.

An ivory hunter asked, "Oh, I know who they are now. You Flint gang had conflicts with them? It is said that your boss, Flint, lost face?"

The big man from the Flint Gang muttered, "It's all gossip, fake, fake."

"Fake?" Someone laughed. "I saw it before. I was eating at the Antlers restaurant. I saw what happened from the second floor. That guy Flint took off his pants for them, right?"

The big man from the Flint Gang was furious: "Don't spread rumors, damn it, our boss didn't take off his pants to them, he dropped his pants!"

"Hahaha." A cheerful laugh rang out, and even the big guy from the Flint Gang laughed too. This incident was really funny.

They didn't take Sivashebog's words to heart. Excavating mammoth ivory depends on experience and luck. How can there be any advanced machines? They don't believe it.

The next day, the off-road vehicle returned again, with ivory still on the roof, this time four ivory.

Some ivory traders went to negotiate the price. They checked the material of the ivory and gave a good price. Four ivory were sold for US$150,000.

On the third day, after the off-road vehicle returned, there were still ivory on the roof, but this time there were two of them, which were of average quality and sold for 50,000 yuan.

The ivory hunters were amazed; they had never seen ivory unearthed at such a rate.

After geological changes, the preserved ivory is buried deep in the tundra. It is very difficult to find them. Generally, a gang of ivory hunters can't find a few in a month.

Many people are small teams of five or six people. It is more difficult for them to find ivory. It is good luck to find one in a month or two.

Often, ivory hunters may work in the wild for more than a month, but in the end they cannot find a mammoth remains. Many small teams can only find two tusks after working for half a year.

Li Du and the others are doing well here. Two or even four ivory tusks are transported back a day, which is a bit scary to find that the speed is too fast.

The ivory hunters guessed whether they bought it from other places and sent it here, but they couldn't figure out the purpose of Li Du and his party doing this.

And someone went to observe these ivory up close. They are all experts, and it is easy to see that the ivory on the car is freshly unearthed, and it is by no means the ones that have been dug out in the market for a while.

Sivashebog knows this matter best, because he has been helping Li Du and others to deal with the ivory. All the excavated ivory is sent here, and he helps to contact the purchaser.

The hunters came to the Golden Ivory Bar to drink, and asked while drinking: "Old man, what kind of machine do they really have?" "Is there such a powerful machine in the world?" "Damn it, this is unbelievable!"

Sivashebog said: "I told you, you don't believe it, they really have the ability to dig up the ivory in this surrounding area."

Now the hunters were in a hurry, and someone slapped the table and shouted: "Then what shall we eat?"

If you rely on the mountains, you can eat the mountains, and on the tundra, you can only eat the mammoth ivory below.

Speaking of which, the ivory hunters are actually living a good life. Even if it takes a five-person team two months to find a mammoth remains, the discovery of two tusks at that time can basically sell for fifty to sixty thousand dollars. Individuals also earn five or six thousand dollars a month.

In the Siberian tundra, if you work normally, you can’t even earn five or six thousand rubles a month, and the exchange rate between dollars and rubles exceeds 50!

On the fourth day, early Li Du and his party drove again, followed by ivory hunters, wanting to see what they were doing.

A pickup truck is waiting in the field. The car has been modified. The rear compartment is built like a caravan. There are many small instruments and wires outside. There is something like a radar on the roof, and there is a scanner-like machine in the back of the car. Signals kept shooting into the ground.

The pickup truck stays in one place. After the off-road vehicle arrives, people start digging busy. When someone digs, the pickup truck will leave and continue to wander slowly on the wasteland.

An ivory hunter pointed to the pickup truck and asked, "That nuclear magnetic machine is in the car, right?"

No one could tell him the answer, but it was obvious.

After some excavation, some bone fossils were dug out. A hunter looked at the excavation site with a telescope and said, "I don't think these bones are like things from a mammoth."

Cheers erupted at the excavation site, Brother Wolf climbed up from below, and dragged an animal skull with two broad machete-like things on the skull.

This is not mammoth ivory. The ivory is very long and round, two or three meters long, but this broad and flat machete-like thing is less than two meters long and has a very flat shape.

Someone recognized the identity of this thing and said in surprise: "My God, a fossil of wild rhino horn!"
