Chapter 173 The Mineral Exploration Team Arrives
"Li Mutou, I feel like Yogurt and the little wolf cub are up to something." Brother Nan walked back to the front yard with his head held high.
"I changed your note to Brother Nan."
"Okay, Li Mutou."
".What kind of business?" Li Mu chose to get the conversation back to the point.
In fact, he didn’t change it. Brother Nan’s WeChat note is still Jiang Daimao.
Thinking this way, he is not at a disadvantage.
"Just now, Suanwolf ran to the backyard and meowed and wailed to the wolf cub, and the wolf cub stopped circling." Brother Nan pointed and said, "Look, it's back."
Li Mu turned his head and saw a kitten and a wolf cub walking towards him from the backyard in small steps.
"Go ask Yogurt what he said to the wolf cub."
"Children have their own world. They are probably playing some games."
“It’s not a game.”
"How do you know it's not?"
"If you're playing games, you'll definitely include me," Brother Nan said firmly.
"That's right." Li Mu nodded.
It is true. As long as Sister Nan is at home, the cubs will come to her first with sandbags or bottles in their mouths when they play games.
"What are you doing?" Brother Nan lowered his head and looked at the kitten and wolf cub who had come back.
"Meow?"
"Brother Nan asked what you and the little wolf cub were doing?" Li Mu translated for Brother Nan.
"Meow meow."
"Yogurt said he didn't do anything."
"Hey, there's another little secret." Brother Nan grinned, not caring at all.
Yogurt and a group of cubs are in the yard. She will know the secret sooner or later.
Li Mu strung the groundhogs together with a rope and hung them under the eaves. The dried groundhogs were now ready and only needed to be dried.
Looking back, the sky was already a fiery red, filled with clouds.
The morning glow does not go out, but the sunset travels thousands of miles.
I guess it will be a nice day tomorrow.
The next morning.
"When will the group looking for gold arrive?" Brother Nan cracked an egg and put the yolk into a small bowl of yogurt.
"It should be soon. They entered the mountain early in the morning. I also sent the coordinates of the courtyard to the team leader."
"Oh, so should we wait for them to come together?"
"Hold on."
Last night Li Mu received a call from the leader of the prospecting team, telling him that the team would enter the mountains today.
The mountains in the reserve are high and the forests are dense. Although we have coordinates and positioning so that we won't get lost, we will inevitably take a lot of detours.
Therefore, Li Mu decided to take the prospecting team directly to the mountain stream where the nugget gold was discovered. It just so happened that that road overlapped with the forest patrol route.
"Li Mu, the group of people you mentioned are here!" Xiao Shuai's voice came from the yard.
"Got it." Li Mu agreed.
When he got up in the morning, he told the animals in the yard in advance that someone was coming to the yard.
It wasn't the first time that someone had come to the yard, and the animals were used to it.
"come yet?"
"No rush, it's still a long way off." Li Mu ate his breakfast slowly.
The golden eagle has excellent eyesight and it saw the convoy several kilometers away.
After finishing breakfast and cleaning up, the roar of a car engine was heard at the door.
Li Mu got up and left the house.
"Do you want to open the door?" The Monkey King, who was squatting on the wall watching the convoy at the door, saw Li Mu coming out, jumped off the wall and ran over to ask.
"Open it." Li Mu touched the Monkey King's head. "Oh."
The Great Sage ran over and opened the gate to the yard.
The convoy had stopped in the open space in front of the gate. The doors opened and a group of people in various uniforms got out.
A middle-aged man wearing camouflage clothes, with dark skin and looking very strong, saw Li Mu and walked over first.
"Hello, Comrade Li Mu? I am Lin Zhihao, the leader of this mineral exploration team." Lin Zhihao walked up to Li Mu and stopped.
"Hello, Team Leader Lin." Li Mu nodded and then extended his right hand. "I'm not a soldier, so we won't salute."
“It’s not that complicated.” Lin Zhihao laughed, stretched out his hand and shook it vigorously.
Li Mu glanced at his collar badge. It had two bars and two stars, meaning he was a lieutenant colonel, commonly known as two cents and two taels.
"I should call you Captain Lin." Li Mu thought about it. Two cents and two cents, it seems to be at the regiment level.
"Deputy, deputy, just call me team leader."
Lin Zhihao pointed back and said, "The main work this time will be done by experts from the Bureau of Land and Resources and the Bureau of Geology and Mineral Resources. I will be responsible for organizing it."
"Okay, Team Leader Lin."
Li Mu didn't like to play tricks, so he said directly: "Everyone, go to the courtyard to rest for a while and drink some water. I will take you to the place where the nugget gold was found."
"No need to rest, you've rested for a night, just go ahead." Lin Zhihao said.
Soldiers never do things in a sloppy manner.
"Let's have a drink of water and take a break." Li Mu glanced in the direction of the convoy. "The mountain road is narrow and the car can't go in. We have to hike into the mountain. These exploration equipment can only be carried by people."
"That's fine."
Lin Zhihao turned around and looked at the group behind him. "Unload the equipment and put it next to the car. Everyone go into the yard to have a drink of water and rest. Comrade Li Mu will lead us directly into the mountain later."
"Let's go in." Li Mu took Lin Zhihao into the courtyard.
"it is good."
Lin Zhihao followed Li Mu into the courtyard gate. As soon as he entered, he saw a group of golden monkeys squatting there, staring at him with their big round eyes.
"So many golden monkeys?" Lin Zhihao was surprised.
When they talked on the phone last night, Li Mu told him that there were some rare wild animals in the yard. He couldn't help being shocked when he saw a whole group of monkeys.
"Ow~"
Two orange figures suddenly jumped out from behind the door, grabbed Lin Zhihao's trouser legs and started tearing them apart.
"Hiss, Siberian tigers!" Lin Zhihao looked down and found that it was two tiger cubs biting his trouser legs.
"They are at the age of being naughty and brave. They are not afraid of people." Li Mu smiled helplessly at Lin Zhihao.
“It’s okay, it’s okay.” Lin Zhihao squatted down happily, wanting to touch the little tiger cub. The brother and sister ran behind Li Mu, stuck close to Li Mu’s legs, stuck their heads out, and bared their teeth at Lin Zhihao.
"A group of golden monkeys and two little Siberian tigers." Lin Zhihao stood up and looked at Li Mu, "No wonder this is a confidential area."
"More than these."
"More than that?" Lin Zhihao was stunned.
Li Mu smiled and pointed to the wooden house under the west wall.
Lin Zhihao looked over there and was stunned for a moment, then his eyes slowly widened.
"hiss"
After a while, Lin Zhihao took a breath.
A two-meter-long Siberian tiger was squatting at the door of the wooden house, looking at him.
The tiger skin was like silk, reflecting the luster in the sun, and the muscle lines were clearly visible. Although it was still far away, Lin Zhihao had no doubt that the big tiger only needed to exert force to pounce in front of him in an instant.
He had seen Siberian tigers before, but this one was nothing like the ones he had seen in the zoo.
It just sits there, without showing its teeth or roaring, but just staring at you, which makes people's spine chill.
“Is this a wild Siberian tiger?”
Lin Zhihao slowly turned his head to look at Li Mu, and unconsciously lowered his voice for fear of scaring the tiger.
