The so-called close to "pure gold" is incorrect, in fact, gold in nature is not active, almost does not react with other substances, so strictly speaking, the gold that exists in nature is pure gold.

But the same is pure gold, the form of existence is different, Jinsha is pure gold, dog head gold is also pure gold, large pieces of dog head gold gathered together, it becomes a "pure gold" gold belt.

The pure gold belt that Buck refers to is a gold belt composed of large chunks of doghead gold.

Although he knew that it was indeed possible for such a "gold belt" to exist in the magic of nature, Roque was still very surprised after listening to Buck.

"Pure gold ore?" Roque originally thought that owning the Far West Land Gold Mine was enough to surprise people, but he didn't expect that the surprise would be so big.

"Yes, the pure gold ore belt - the iron hook has led people to block the gold mine, from last night to now, a ton of gold has been dug up, I don't dare to dig it, send the iron hook to seal the mine hole, and organize the miners to level the ground in the camp-" Buck was frightened, such a large fortune, if the outside world knew about it, it would shock the world, and I am afraid that Baron Philip would not be able to bear it at that time.

"Does anyone else know?" Roque's first instinct was to block the news.

"No one knows except ours." Buck was still very careful, but fortunately the Boolean technicians hired by Christian were not yet in place, otherwise, it would be really difficult to deal with.

"It doesn't matter, keep digging, dig it out and store it in the mine first." As long as the news has not spread, Roque is not worried, except for Scarlett, the Rock Gold Mine is Chinese from top to bottom, and those Chinese's English proficiency has not yet reached the level of being able to communicate freely with the British and Boers, so there is no need to worry about news leakage.

The Rand Gold Mine was formed by multiple volcanic eruptions and is 500 million years old.

For such a long time, the gold mine is buried layer by layer in the ground, and there is no need to rush after a mine belt is dug up, and you can continue to dig down, there may be a mine belt below, or there may not be, it depends on the patience of the mine owner, plus a certain amount of luck.

If you give up before you dig the next belt, you will lose a lot of money without knowing it, just like the previous owner of the Matilda gold mine.

The Rand gold mine is the world's largest gold mine, some gold mines are mined 000 meters down, and there are still gold belts spreading in the lower part, which is very rare in the world, and can even be said to be the only one, limited to the technical conditions at this time, many mine owners simply did not think that the reserves of the Rand gold mine would be so large, so it is normal to have no patience.

Roque will definitely not abandon the gold mine at will, in terms of the scale of the Far West Land gold mine, Roque will not be able to dig it until he dies in his life, and his son and grandson can continue to dig, this is the real heirloom.

"Not for sale?" Buck hadn't turned the corner yet.

The gold mine makes money, but it also costs money, only digging and not selling, with Roque's net worth, it can't last long.

Roque can indeed make money, but it can spend more money, not to mention anything else, buying people from Hoover, one person will cost two pounds, and a steady stream of Chinese police family members will be placed, and the normal operation of the security deposit mine will cost money, and it will cost a lot of money, if you only dig and don't sell, you can't hold on at all.

Even those top-level nobles with profound backgrounds can't hold on.

"You're not going to sell some of it?" Roque suspects that it may have been a mistake to choose Buck as general manager.

"Oh-oh, I see-" Buck just hasn't adapted to the role yet, and his own abilities are sufficient.

When he got off work in the evening, Roque couldn't help but take a look.

When he left the police station, Roque found that the streets near the police station had begun to be patrolled by mounted police.

Near the police station is a noble residential area built by Christian, and there is a police station and a city hall under construction, as well as the official residence of Baron Philippe, and Roque's home is also nearby, so it is normal to have police patrols, and the police are indeed more professional than the patrols of the regular army.

In the face of ordinary people, most of the regular army is impatient, and although the police in Johannesburg are not "patient", they are indeed much better than the regular army.

Backed by many gold mines in the Rand mining area, the Johannesburg Police Department is also rich, Roque has been as "thrifty" as possible, the police are still issued as many as four sets of uniforms every season, which is more than twice as much as the Cape Town Police Department, and the police horses used by the mounted police are also mixed breed horses imported from the United Kingdom, and the shoulder height is basically about one meter six, the uniforms used by the Johannesburg Police Department follow the tradition of the Cape Town Police Department, but there are more cape-style raincoats, as well as retro high-top leather helmets, and the silver police badge on the front of the leather helmet is very dazzling, On the side there is a pattern of a South African mastiff, which is the symbol of the Johannesburg Police Department.

Well, Westerners just like to use some small things to make a fool of themselves, a small police station, also has its own mascot.

Of course, the Johannesburg Police Department also has it, and Roque's "big man" is the mascot of the Johannesburg Police Department.

Of course, now that the big guy has defected, he is happy to stay in the baron's house with Phyllis, but this does not prevent Roque from loving the South African mastiff, Gaode's police dog training base is getting bigger and bigger, it has only been two or three months, there are already more than 100 South African mastiffs, and now the police go to the streets to perform fixed-point security tasks, and they are used to bringing a South African mastiff.

Not to mention, the effect is really good, the well-equipped police, with the majestic police dogs, looks very feeling, much stronger than the "mud legs" of the regular army.

In Johannesburg, November is summer, but the maximum temperature during the day does not exceed 0 degrees, and the minimum temperature at night does not fall below 10 degrees, which is still very pleasant.

Roque also wears a cloak when he goes out, November is the rainy season, it often rains in the evening, this season is actually very annoying, because the municipal government is not strong, now most of the roads in Johannesburg have not been hardened, only the road near the police station and the city hall, or just hardened in recent times, as long as it rains, the muddy road surface can be called unbearable.

Today is not bad, the sunset scenery is charming, according to the Chinese proverb, there is no rain, but here in Johannesburg, in most cases, the experience of the Chinese is useless, so Roque still wears a cloak, anyway, the black cloak is very windy even if it does not consider the rain.

The journey was fast, and when I arrived at the Rock Gold Mine, it was already full of stars.

The gold mine is brightly lit, the mine is working overtime overnight, and the security team is training intensively, in addition to training in riding and fighting, they also have to train shooting, so the excitement in the gold mine is like fighting.

For this situation, the only one who is unhappy should be Scarlett.

Scarlett is not worried about money, but the gunfire will affect Scarlett's rest, Scarlett lives in the office building of the senior staff dormitory, she acts low-key every day, except for work is sleeping, never leaving the gate of the gold mine, the biggest advantage of this is not only to save money, but also to maintain the skin.

Roque doesn't care whether Scarlett's skin is good or not, in Roque's eyes, Scarlett's girl is not in her right mind, and Roque is here to see gold.

It's already fun to have a mine at home, but what would it be like to have a gold mine of pure gold?

Probably happy to ascend to heaven!

In just one day and one night, Buck led the men to dig up a full three tons of gold.

What is the concept of three tons?

As a result of the war, the combined output of all the gold mines in the Rand mine last year was only 80 tonnes, the lowest in the last five years.

Let's not forget, gold was discovered in Johannesburg just fifteen years ago.

Three tons is three million grams, and from 1821 onwards, Britain officially used the gold standard, with a maximum of 7,228 grams per pound.

So, three tonnes of gold is worth about £4.15 million.

It doesn't sound like much, after all, a good house in the 21st century is more than 4.15 million pounds, but a house in the 21st century is worth three tons of gold, isn't it?

If calculated according to 270 grams of gold, three tons, about 810 million.

Of course, the gold that has just been mined is certainly not very good-looking, and it has not been refined, and some of the gold nuggets still have dirt on them, which looks gray and inconspicuous.

Roque is a little fascinated, so much gold, it will definitely not work to sell it, maybe it will affect the price of gold in the market, so to stabilize, must stabilize-

Why don't you go back and make a coffee table with gold?

Not to mention, some of the chiefs of South Africa in the 21st century have indeed done this.

However, Roque definitely can't do this kind of thing, and it will be damned to do this kind of thing, so Roque decided to hide most of the gold in the underground vault of the gold mine, and dispose of all the gold dug up in the future, and only sell the part that is enough to keep the gold mine running.

"Make me a few gold balls, not too big, bigger than a fist, and a few rhinos, elephants and other things, I'll give them away." Roque is also a local tyrant now, what is the most appropriate thing to give away?

Of course it's a souvenir.

"Okay, we have jewelers in the mine, from the Qing Kingdom, do you need to mix some copper in it?" Buck got into the role very quickly, and after he got the hang of it, it was a big day.

"You asked me to give away something mixed with copper? Shame on you? "Roque was so surprised, this wasn't an opening, it was a hole in his head.

It's full of water.

"Aren't I trying to save money—" Buck scoffed, too, a poor child.

"You can't save this money, remember, as long as it's an animal, you have to use gems and diamonds for your eyes—" Roque spared no expense, how extravagant he came.

"We don't have any gems in the mines." Buck is habitually thrifty and thrifty, and when he saw Roque's gaze, he immediately came back to his senses: "I'll buy, I'll buy, Johannesburg can't buy it, I'll go to Kimberley-"

That's pretty much it.
