Chapter 569 568. The Sound of Water (2)

The cactus meat was roasted first, and Godzilla brought a portion. Li Du knew that Sophie couldn't eat strong flavors, but he saw that what Da Ao roasted was mainly black pepper and chili, so he knew that Sophie would not like it.

So he went over by himself, found out the honey sauce and baked a new one.

Da Ao admired him greatly: "Boss, you have come out to work, have you brought enough things?"

Li Du smiled triumphantly: "It's a pity we don't drive a truck, otherwise I would even move the whole kitchen here for you."

"Then it's time for you to buy an RV." Dao said.

Li Du thought about it for a while, and it was really a good idea. In the future, if he makes more money, he will really buy an RV.

This time he came to look for fire opals, and his income would not be low. This afternoon, he had already found a dozen pieces of opals, all of which were of good quality, and it would be no problem to sell them for 1.8 million.

He sent back the honey-roasted cactus meat, and Sophie lay on the deck chair and giggled, "Wow, that's so sweet, I'm so glad I met a man like you."

Mr. Li was very happy.

He has a strong taste, and he eats spicy-flavored cactus meat, which is still a little crunchy after being roasted, and it tastes 'crackling' and feels good.

Seeing that they were eating happily, Ah Miao and her three friends came up to follow suit.

The roasted meat was also cooked, Da Ao dug open the ore, took out the steaming cactus and prickly pear, after opening it, a smell of meat came out.

While cutting the meat into pieces with a ceramic knife, he said regretfully: "These stones are very hot. If there are other things suitable for roasting, I will definitely roast another batch."

Li Du laughed and said, "Who said no?"

He went to the carriage to tidy up, took out a few potatoes, buried them in the pit together, covered the surface with these hot stones, and it could be roasted again.

Da Ao was shocked: "Boss, how many things have you prepared?"

Li Du said: "Even if the world ends, it's enough for us to live here for a while."

He originally used these potatoes to fry potato chips or make mashed potatoes, but when he saw these fiery ores, he simply took them out and roasted them.

Sophie exclaimed, "How much are you going to eat?"

Li Du pointed to Godzilla and said, "With him here, don't worry about wasting food."

Godzilla had a happy smile on his face, it seemed that these potatoes were prepared for him.

Li Du went on to say: "Don't laugh, buddy, don't touch those potatoes, that's our supper, and it's just warmed up in the early morning."

Godzilla couldn't help laughing.

Da'ao built four or five bonfires in the wilderness. At night, the wind was strong, and the bonfires were whistling, blowing sparks continuously into the sky, crackling and shining in the dark night.

Sophie asked, "Why are there so many bonfires?"

Da'ao replied: "Because there are more insects, animals, especially reptiles that come out to hunt at night, I lit a fire to increase the temperature here. They hate high temperature and fire, so they won't come near us."

Sophie nodded suddenly, that's why.

Li Du continued to search for opals with the crispy noodles. He expanded the scope, not only within his own hectare, but also the surrounding area.

Opal stones are mostly small, only the size of the belly of a thumb. If they are the size of a quail egg, they are considered relatively large.

Just after dinner, he recovered a lot of energy, so the little flying insects flew faster, concentrated more, and found the opal faster.

There are not many fire opals, at least in the National Park, where the output is not low, but after years of excavation, the surface layer has been picked up.

These things are not peanuts and potatoes. It is impossible to regenerate some every year. They are non-renewable resources. Once the surface is picked up, it will be difficult for people behind to find them.

Not to mention the distance, let’s just say that in the past 20 years, the land of the national park has probably been searched for hundreds of times by different people. Every year, there are a lot of ore pickers to try their luck.

Because of the policy, pickers cannot find gems through machinery, and cannot dig deep underground.

So when the gems on the surface have been picked up, there are actually gems in the depths, and the number is similar to that of decades or even hundreds of years ago.

Li Du is looking for these, relying on the ability of the little flying insect, he can always touch these stones.

Of course, this is due to the vision of the little flying insect. Its vision is the same as that of Li Du, as if Li Du is looking at something.

But the difference is that it ignores light restrictions, whether it is in the sun, in the warehouse, in the water or underground, the vision is the same.

When he found Opal, he stuffed the candied fruit into it when no one was looking, and when the crispy noodles got together to dig it, he immediately called for someone to come and search for the Opal.

In this way, his search efficiency would naturally not be low. When midnight fell and he was about to rest, he already had twenty-two large and small fire opals in the car safe.

Sophie was very frustrated, and she sat down tiredly and said, "How did you find the crispy noodles? Why can't I find Opal no matter what?"

Li Du comforted her and said: "Crack noodles are talented in this area, haven't we all found gems? You see, Da Ao and Godzilla have put in much more effort than you."

This is true, when the crispy noodles did not find gems, the two of them would look for them, and they worked very hard, because Li Du said that they would find gems here and keep them.

However, they found none.

Li Du will be exhausted by using the little flying insects all the time.

After he sat down, he didn't want to move anymore. Seeing this, Sophie went to get him a roasted sweet potato and said, "Eat something and drink some hot milk. Let's go to bed early."

She could see Li Du's exhaustion, so she didn't worry about not getting anything, because she felt that she didn't work as hard as Li Du.

Eating delicious sweet potatoes and feeling the wind in Arizona's autumn night, Li Du felt less tired.

But when he got into the tent and lay down later, he immediately fell into a deep sleep.

It was exhausting!

Sophie originally wanted to fetch water for him to wash him off, but when she saw him fall asleep with a tired face, she sighed. She touched Li Du's face, but Li Du didn't move.

Seeing this, she looked around and saw that the tent blocked everything, so she took off Li Du's shoes and put the water basin under his feet.

Mr. Li usually pays attention to hygiene, but after a day of trekking in the hot wasteland, his feet will inevitably smell.

Sophie covered her nose and slapped his leg lightly, then moved his feet into the basin and rubbed him.

Ah Meow and Ah Ao lay on the sidelines watching, and also put their paws into the basin, where they started playing with the water.

Sophie put on a straight face, slapped their paws, and whispered: "Go to sleep?"

The three little guys dispersed quickly, leaving only the slight splashing sound of water in the basin.
