Guo Xuyang completely ignored her. Ever since he came out with Qike yesterday afternoon, he hadn't rested for a moment.
He was either inspecting mineral deposits or making bets with Athena to open up the transport tunnels for gold. After a day and a night of exertion, Guo Xuyang was utterly exhausted.
Qike, however, was extremely pleased. He hadn't expected Guo Xuyang to not only seize the entire gold mine with a single move but also to open up the tunnels overnight.
This was truly a lucrative opportunity.
Of course, he wouldn't mistreat Guo Xuyang. After all, the gold mine was secured solely through Guo Xuyang's capabilities, and he wouldn't be the kind of person to abandon someone after using them.
He would definitely need Guo Xuyang's help in the future; this was a treasure boy.
Qike did not disturb Guo Xuyang's rest, but he was unaware that this unintentional act would lead him to even greater wealth.
Yes, it was precisely because of his generosity that Guo Xuyang also informed him about another mineral deposit not far from this location.
At this moment, he didn't know about it yet and was simply waiting for Guo Xuyang to wake up.
“Boss, what you arranged has been completed.
However, those people were too much, actually making us spend nearly thirty million.”
At this moment, Qike's phone rang, and a subordinate's voice came from inside.
“How much? Thirty million? How can it be so much?” Qike was also stunned upon hearing this figure.
“Before you left, you instructed me to cover their expenses, but these people were truly excessive.
One of them even requested a hundred barrels of red wine and had it shipped directly to their country.”
“A hundred barrels? Are you talking about the kind of barrels our estate used to brew?”
Qike's heart pounded. He hoped for a negative answer, but unfortunately, he did not get it.
“Yes. That person specifically found me and said he was preparing to gift it to the families of Guo Xuyang's wives, and that Guo Xuyang would reimburse me upon his return. So he directly ordered a hundred barrels.”
“You were that foolish? You didn't refuse to pay him?”
“This person specifically found me and said he was preparing to gift it to Guo Xuyang’s wives’ families, and that he would seek reimbursement from Guo Xuyang upon his return.”
Hearing his subordinate's reply, Qike knew that Guo Xuyang must have secretly instructed those people before his arrival, otherwise, they wouldn't have gone on such a shopping spree.
He couldn't help but inwardly complain, even considering revoking the shares he planned to give Guo Xuyang.
However, upon further reflection, this mine alone was enough for him to make a fortune, and there was no need to lose this treasure boy over thirty million.
Guo Xuyang clearly sensed Qike's psychological shift.
He had regained consciousness the moment Qike answered the phone.
But he did not open his eyes, wanting to see if Qike truly treated him with sincerity.
If Qike was sincere, he wouldn't mind telling him about the other mineral deposit he had discovered yesterday.
Regardless, he was guaranteed to profit without any losses.
He was already a shareholder of the company, and all its profits belonged to him.
The better the company performed, the higher his income would naturally be.
Moreover, the extraction of these gold mines didn't require any effort from him; he just needed to wait for the dividends.
“How long have I been asleep?” Guo Xuyang asked, opening his eyes.
“You're awake? Mr. Guo. Please get some more rest? If it weren't for you yesterday, we wouldn't have known what to do.”
“The mineral reserves in this gold mine are not excessive, but I wasn't entirely truthful with Athena earlier, fearing she would be reluctant to give us this deposit if she knew the truth.
Based on my observations, the gold below is more than two hundred tons.
If my guess is correct, the gold in this area is around a thousand tons.”
“A thousand tons? That much?” Qike was shocked.
If Guo Xuyang was telling the truth, they could mine at this site for at least two years. How much money would that be?
At least several billion US dollars.
Good heavens, they were truly striking it rich.
