Chapter 20 is worth over ten thousand.
"Young master, can that Tiger Urine Spring really make money?!"
"Young master...aren't you overthinking things? If making money were so easy, why would it be our turn?"
"This isn't exactly a secret, so why don't we go hunting instead?"
Along the way, there were constant doubts and criticisms.
Su Luo glanced at Ye Hu, Shen Laosan, and the others who looked puzzled, and smiled: "Anyway, you can rest assured. If I can't make money, I'll become a male prostitute to earn money for you."
"I'll use this money to treat you to wine and women then!"
The crowd roared with laughter.
Even the usually stern Ye Hu broke into a smile.
They were all completely convinced of Su Luo's abilities, but Su Luo's unpretentious manner won them even more favor.
The fatigue from climbing the mountain was mostly dispelled.
Soon, we reached the top of the mountain.
This mountain is called Dayun Mountain, named for the fact that its summit is often shrouded in clouds and mist. It is home to many wild animals and has never been truly cultivated.
It is said that there are even quite a few fierce tigers among them, also known as mountain tigers.
Bears and wild boars are not rare creatures.
Therefore, even if someone goes hunting, they rarely venture deep into Dayun Mountain; at most, they stay on the outskirts.
Su Luo moved with incredible speed, and Ye Hu and the others were also mostly physically strong and fast.
Less than half an hour later, Ye Hu shouted, "Young master, if the information is correct, Tiger Urine Spring is just ahead!"
Su Luo paused, and said very seriously, "Uncle Tiger, that's not Tiger Urine Spring!"
"If it absolutely must be given a name, then call it Golden Water Spring!"
Ye Hu's lips twitched, wondering if his son-in-law was still dreaming!
He actually mistook that salty, urine-like spring water for gold?
However, since Su Luo was so determined, he couldn't say anything. He could only exchange a glance with Shen Laosan, and they could see each other's helplessness.
Su Luo walked at the front, somewhat excited!
After all, it concerns my first pot of gold. Whether I start with a gold mine or with a pickaxe depends on this Tiger's Urine Spring... oops, I mean, Golden Water Spring!
Wow!
The sound of flowing water reached Su Luo's ears, and he quickened his pace, soon spotting a winding stream.
The stream was only half a meter wide and less than ten centimeters deep. The water was clear, but there were no small fish or shrimp.
Its source is in the mountains, and the further up you go, the deeper and wider the stream becomes.
Su Luo stepped forward, inserted a finger into the stream, and then put it in her mouth.
This scene left Ye Hu and the others with somewhat strange expressions.
After all, the stream is called Tiger Urine Spring, so Su Luo's actions are essentially drinking from it...
Cough!
Not daring to think too much, Ye Hu could only say tactfully, "Young Master, I've heard that the spring water is poisonous!"
But Su Luo's eyes were unusually bright, and she was quite excited: "This amount won't kill anyone. Let's continue upwards, following this stream!"
As he spoke, he began to walk.
Su Luo couldn't help but be excited; the stream was not only salty, but also had a slightly astringent taste!
Clearly, his judgment was correct; the source of this stream most likely flows through a salt mine!
After walking uphill for several dozen meters, the width and depth of the stream increased, and some of the stones in the stream even had white crystals.
Those are impurities in salt minerals such as calcium compounds and magnesium carbonate.
"Developed!"
This time, I've really struck it rich!
The moment Su Luo saw these white crystals, the last trace of worry in his heart completely disappeared.
He felt his blood boiling, as if he could already see himself succeeding!
The flowing stream water seemed to have turned into pure white salt, and then into pure white silver.
Su Luo wished he could shout "Wu Hu!" and his steps quickened, even leaving Ye Hu and the others several steps behind.
From a distance, it looks like a nimble monkey in the mountains.
"Boss Ye, this..."
Shen Laosan looked at Ye Hu, somewhat hesitant.
He couldn't understand how his son-in-law, who had killed without blinking an eye yesterday, had become like this!
He glanced at the gently flowing stream. Could it be that the water really was poisonous, but not a deadly poison, but one that drove people mad?
Ye Hu was also helpless and said, "Since the son-in-law has said so, then of course we have to listen to him!"
"Follow me!"
He followed behind Su Luo, thinking to himself that it would be good for Su Luo to experience some setbacks!
Just consider it a silly prank on Su Luo!
Soon, the group arrived deep in the mountains, where they found a stone wall with a spring right above it!
Wow!
The water gushed from the spring and flowed down the rock face, spreading across the entire mountain.
"Young master, this is the Tiger Urine Spring... cough cough, the springhead of the Golden Water Spring."
Ye Hu said, "Young master, look, this is just ordinary spring water, nothing special... Why don't we go hunting instead!"
Su Luo stepped forward and touched the stone wall, feeling its rough texture.
But when you reach out and grasp a protruding stone, and apply a little force, you can feel it wobbling.
"right here!"
Su Luo suddenly drew his long sword, found a gap, inserted the blade into it, and pried it upwards.
boom!
With tremendous force, the stone was pried open, revealing the yellow mud inside!
Washed by the flowing water and dug by Su Luo, the yellow mud quickly disappeared, revealing pieces of crystals of various colors.
"found it!"
Su Luo called out to those behind him, "Hurry up and come help!"
Ye Hu and the others, who were initially helpless, were all stunned. Then, they saw Su Luo pry out a salt ore the size of a human head with the blade.
"What is this? It doesn't look like an ordinary stone!"
"Could it be that the son-in-law really succeeded?!"
Ye Hu and the others had never seen salt ore before and could not recognize that these were the treasures for salt production.
However, the crystalline appearance of the salt ore still struck them as extraordinary, and they were all taken aback.
At this moment, most of the doubts about Su Luo dissipated!
In particular, the color of some salt ores had a golden hue, which reminded them of what Su Luo had always talked about... the Golden Water Spring!
Old Shen was stunned. "Could it be that the son-in-law really dug up gold?!"
Su Luo turned his head and said, "It's not gold, but in some situations, it's more precious than gold!"
While gold is very valuable, in some situations, salt can save lives!
So, it's okay for Su Luo to say that!
Ye Hu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but Su Luo smiled and said to him, "Don't ask, Uncle Hu!"
"I'll give you an explanation when we get back... Heh, do you still remember our bet?!"
Ye Hu nodded, "One hundred thousand taels a month, of course I remember!"
Su Luo held a fist-sized piece of salt ore in his hand, weighing it in his hand, and said with a relaxed smile, "Now I can tell you... 100,000 taels a month isn't much!"
"Even a million taels... might not be impossible!" "Dear readers, please don't take this too seriously. This is just a lighthearted read, a novel meant to give you a good laugh. Just read it for fun and that's it."
