Chapter 433 Dry Water Jinsha River

In the golden sunlight, three waterfowl motorcycles were speeding all the way. Not long after, a bridge across the river appeared in front of the national highway.

Obviously, the Jinsha River has arrived!
When Chen Ya and his three approached with their locomotives, they first saw many Tibetan and Qiang gold diggers gathered in front of the bridge. They were packing their bags and preparing to walk down the bridge to start gold digging.

At the same time, there are many vehicles parked beside the bridge, including...

Three police cars.

There is even a police duty box.

At this moment, the three of Chen Ya also drove to the front of the bridge, and naturally looked down the bridge.

But I saw that the riverbed in the river was covered with pebbles and all kinds of sand and mud, and at the same time there was a shallow river flowing slowly.

Although it is in the dry season, it does not mean that the Jinsha River is completely dried up, but because winter is approaching and the snow-capped mountains in the upper reaches freeze, making the water source much less than other times.

Even in the dry season, the Jinsha River is more than 100 meters wide. Of course, the width of the entire riverbed is more than 600 meters, which means it has shrunk by nearly six times.

If it does not rain in the near future, it is indeed a good day for gold panning.

On both sides of the Jinsha River, there are undulating hills, which are bare, as if in the Loess Plateau, where no green plants can be seen.

"This is the Jinsha River in the dry season."

Chen Ya said something, but the netizens in the live broadcast room looked curiously at the police duty room and three police cars not far away.

Why is there a police uncle?

Seeing the barrage, Chen Ya was about to answer, but Pi Changshan said first:

"The gold panning activities on the Jinsha River are under the supervision of the public security organs every year. After all, gold is too sensitive. If the police don't send people to protect the Tibetans and Qiang people, there may be troubles."

Chen Ya nodded in agreement with Lao Pi's words. In fact, before the founding of the People's Republic, the most chaotic area in XZ was the Jinsha River Basin.

It has never been an empty talk that people die for money and birds die for food.

Of course!
In addition to protecting the local gold diggers, the police are more concerned with supervision to prevent illegal gold panning by outsiders, especially the use of large equipment.

such as……

More on this later.

In short, the Tibetans are doing it to make ends meet, but some criminals are doing it to make a fortune. The nature is completely different, and the result is also different.

……

When netizens learned that the public security organs specially sent people to protect Tibetans who were panning for gold, they all rolled up bullet screens with only one sentence in content.

Give the police uncle a thumbs up!
Closer to home.

From the looks of it, Lao Pi seems to be very familiar with this place, Chen Ya couldn't help asking:

"Old Pi, have you been to the Jinsha River?"

Hearing the inquiry, Lao Pi immediately proudly said:
"Of course! When I went to the countryside in 76, I joined the XZ team."

Is it so naughty?
Netizens in the live broadcast room stared wide-eyed, even Chen Ya had to be convinced that it was the old driver, and Jiujiu beside him was also surprised:

"Wow! Grandpa Pi, that's amazing!"

It's Grandpa Pi again...

Lao Pi's face darkened, and he said speechlessly:
"Sister Jiujiu, don't call me Grandpa Pi again, it makes me feel very uncomfortable."

"What's that called?"

Jiujiu said, Lao Pi immediately laughed and said:

"Call me Brother Pi, or... Godfather Pi."

puff! ! ! !

Chen Ya burst into laughter on the spot, and couldn't help but look at Pi Changshan and said:

"Old Pi, do you still want face?"

Hearing this, Lao Pi blew his beard and stared:

"It's called being young at heart, you little brat, do you know how to play ball?"

Chen Ya shook his head with a smile, and didn't bother to argue. Then, under the camera of the drone, he looked at the Jinsha River and explained:

"The Jinsha River is the upper reaches of the Yangtze River Basin in my country. It is named for the yellow sandy soil in the river. It is also known as Shengshui, Yanshui, and Lushui..."

There are a lot of balabaras. To put it simply, the Jinsha River is the "Sichuan-Tibet Boundary River".

As long as you pass the cross-river bridge, you will be in the XZ Autonomous Region, and at the same time enter the second level of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. If you continue westward, the altitude will continue to rise.

Chen Ya's narration can be regarded as his job, and this also made Lao Pi and Jiujiu a little curious. The former glanced at the drone and couldn't help asking:
"Xiaoqiang, do you make money as a network anchor?"

"If I don't make money, I'm going to die of poverty!"

Chen Ya chuckled, and the netizens in the live broadcast room collectively rolled their eyes. Now there are tens of thousands of gifts and rewards every day. Brother Ya is a poor person.

"You poor ass! No money and a waterfowl?"

Lao Pi retorted, of course he would not believe such nonsense.

pity……

Only Chen Ya himself knew that if it wasn't for the help of the system, he would indeed be a poor man, and he would still be a poor man in debt.

With the pitiful manuscript fee for writing novels, sooner or later you will starve to death. After all, there are very few readers who pay to subscribe to the genuine version, and most of them are reading pirated versions.

This is not starving the author, what is?
Gossip less.

At this moment, the three parked their cars by the bridge, and then watched many Tibetan and Qiang gold diggers walk to the riverbed of the Jinsha River and start the gold panning work.

Most of these gold diggers used crude tools. First, they used shovels or shovels to dig for gold, dug out the sand, gravel and silt in the river bed, put them into the gold pan, and then washed them in shallow water.

Seeing this, Lao Pi couldn't help saying:
"Gold has a high specific gravity, so it will settle at the bottom of the river bed. Through the gold pan, the rest of the sand and gravel impurities can be washed away, leaving gold sand with a higher specific gravity."

"But not all gold diggers will get something. Usually, it is necessary to change the location repeatedly before they can find the riverbed containing gold sand."

Chen Ya nodded. Even if it is gold mining, it is impossible to get rich overnight. On the contrary, it is a job that tests patience.

They may even return empty-handed. Of course, the local Tibetan and Qiang gold diggers seem to be very experienced and believe that they should be able to gain something.

Due to the long distance, it is impossible to see clearly whether those Tibetans found gold sand after cleaning the gold pan.

But even so, many donkey and car friends passing by also stood on the bridge to watch, it was a feast for the eyes, and some even went down to the river bed to search for pebbles.

This made Jiujiu ask curiously:

"Are they looking for crabs?"

Looking for crabs?
Lao Pi was speechless, while Chen Ya said thoughtfully:

"It should be looking for... the dog's head gold."

Dog head gold?
The eyes of the netizens in the live broadcast room brightened, while Lao Pi nodded and said with a smile:
"That's right! It's the dog's head gold."

Apparently, last night at the Tibetan bar, what Pi Changshan referred to as "picking up" was referring to the dog's head gold.

Dog head gold is a kind of gold-rich ore, which is naturally produced, impure in texture, large in size and irregular in shape.

Like Jinsha, it is all natural gold. Because it is shaped like a dog's head, it is called "dog head gold", and some are shaped like a horseshoe, so it is also called horseshoe gold.

In the Jinsha River, besides panning for gold on the river bed, you can also pick up dog head gold, but the probability is the same as winning the lottery.

Although outsiders can't pan for gold, they can pick it up. If you are lucky enough to pick up a piece of dog's head gold, it belongs to you personally.

"It is said that someone once picked up a fist-sized dog's head gold here, which weighed a full two catties."

As Lao Pi said, he immediately turned his head to look at Chen Ya and Jiujiu, and asked with a smile:

"How about it, shall we go down and try our luck? Maybe... we can also get the dog's head gold."

"Yeah! Yay! I love gold!"

Jiujiu was extremely excited. Although she was covered with a veil, her eyes seemed to be shining with golden light. It was obvious that she was not only a queen, but also a little money fan.

And the netizens in the live broadcast room also quickly scrolled the barrage.

"No desire, no desire: Paralysis, what I'm waiting for is now!"

"Electric Fan Personality: Hurry down and find Goutoujin, I have a hunch that Brother Ya will definitely find it!"

"Confused K: Gold or something, just thinking about it makes me feel excited, this cliff is a good opportunity to make a fortune!"

"Baichuan Jiangshui: Are you dreaming? How the hell did you find the dog's head gold?"

"Li Jiuxian: That's right, even if there was one, it would have been picked up long ago!"

"That rose: I'm afraid! There are more than 300 million pairs of eyes in the live broadcast room, and you still can't find the dog's head gold?"

……

[Current popularity: 3201406]
Although the wilderness live broadcast has not officially started, the Sichuan-Tibet line has also attracted the attention of netizens, especially the current gold rush activity, which has attracted more than 300 million people.

Obviously, this is the charm of gold.

When Chen Ya saw the barrage, he felt a little helpless. Although he didn't think he could get the dog's head gold, but the enthusiasm of the netizens was so high that it was really hard to refuse, so he smiled and said:
"Let's go, let's pick up the dog's head gold!"
