Chapter 342 Let’s keep hiding our profession.(1/2)

After walking into the forest, Erken took out a stick from his backpack.
This stick is all white and looks hollow. It is very light to hold, a bit like a blind stick held by a blind person, but there is a small electromagnet-like device at the front end that protrudes into the ground.
Chen Xing could calculate the impact point of the meteorite, but he was unfamiliar with these equipment and asked: "Can such a small magnet work?"
Erken Mathieson snorted proudly and said: "You don't understand this, right? An electromagnet, even though it is such a small piece, its magnetic power is not comparable to that of ordinary magnets. And I don't want to rely on it.
It's like he's sucking something in, just feeling the magnetism from the meteorite."
Oops, got it.
It’s almost the same as mine clearance before.
Chen Xing watched videos on the Internet and saw landmine clearance in the past. Now he saw Erken Mathieson's cautious look. The more he watched, the more he looked like him, and he laughed twice.
Erken doesn't miss any stone, even if it doesn't look like a meteorite at all.
Meteorites should be black after burning through the atmosphere, but Erken doesn't care whether it is a black stone or not, as long as it is a stone, he will always use an electromagnet to detect it.
"Don't think it's troublesome for me to do this." Erken said to Chen Xing, "Although the meteorite is black, we all know it, but what if the meteorite that fell many years ago is also in this place? After so many years of oxidation,
It will become the same as the surrounding stones. This oxidation time is very short, and then it will not be much different from the surrounding stones. Therefore, with luck, we can still find meteorites that fell before."
The birth of the earth has been too long for human beings, and there are countless meteorites falling from the sky.
With the passage of time, it only takes a few thousand years for meteorites to become the native material of the earth, no different from the pebbles you see casually. Maybe there is a stone in the fountain pool in the street park that once came from space. This
I can’t even tell.
However, meteorites that are not that old certainly also exist.
Many meteorites fall to the earth every year, and meteorite hunters are a new profession that has only appeared in the past ten years. How can it be possible to find all the meteorites on the earth?
There are no records at all of meteorites that fell in earlier years.
So, you have to try your luck at this time.
Erken continued to tell Chen Xing the story: "I have heard of an old garbage man who sits on a fishing boat every day and uses a fishing rod to connect an electromagnet to hunt for treasures in the sea. Most of the time, he cannot make ends meet, but he has caught fish in two wars.
The exploration equipment left over from the period and a six kilogram iron meteorite were bought by their country for US$300 per gram."
Six kilograms is six kilograms, three hundred and one grams.
$1.8 million?
Is this still rubbish? Why is rubbish so profitable?
I really learned about a lot of weird industries in the past two days. Meteorite hunter Chen Xing can understand it. After all, whether they are collectors or used for research, there is no shortage of buyers for meteorites from the sky. Now even ocean garbage
Everyone is out.
Catching something valuable will make more than what I earned from taking photos in a year.
Abuse.
It was getting dark, and walking around in the forest for the past three hours had no effect at all. Chen Xing wondered in his mind whether he had made a mistake? But reason told him that it was not the case. It would be difficult to find a few rocks in such a vast place.
Although it is not as big as finding a needle in a haystack, in the end it is almost the same.
Erken straightened up, picked up nearby branches and made a fire, and said to Chen Xing: "Why don't you go back to the previous town to rest? I might sleep in the wild at night."
p>
"It's just a village, but there's no place to rest." Chen Xing said.
When he got off the bus, he observed that there were no hotels, not even shops, only houses where people lived.
You said that there are at least a few mahjong rooms or canteens in rural China, but there are no such things in rural Europe. If you want to buy something, you can only drive to a larger town. This is the case in Paris, let alone Sweden.
of.
"Then I'll have to work hard for you..."
Erken had never thought of this before, otherwise he would not have entered this forest from that small village.
If you search around a bit, there will definitely be a bigger town.
"It doesn't matter." Chen Xing said.
Anyway, Erken has a tent. At worst, he will just sleep for one night and we will see what happens tomorrow.
Erken will never leave here in the past few days. Chen Xing can tell from his actions. In the past three hours, this man's eyes were like fire, and he looked like he would not give up until he found the meteorite.
But Chen Xing had prepared too few things and might not be able to withstand a few days and nights in the wild.
Chen Xing took some bread and yogurt from the bag, and the two of them shared it, which was considered dinner.
There was a rustling sound in the distance, and the light of the flashlight kept flickering.
Who is it?
Chen Xing became vigilant.
"Relax, it's other meteorite hunters." Erken said calmly.
This is not the first time he has encountered such a situation.
The people over there saw a fire lit here, and the light of the flashlight gradually came over here. Soon Chen Xing saw a figure wearing a yellow jacket, with typical Germanic features on his face. When he saw you
Will he laugh later.
"Aha, it's little Mattison!"
Erken was brought into this industry by his uncle. Since the circle of meteorite hunters is very small, folk meteorite hunters are basically from a single lineage. Therefore, Erken’s uncle is Big Mattison, and his name is only Little Mattison.
.
"What are you doing here?"
"It's so cold, let's warm ourselves up by the fire."
The man sat down in front of the fire and said in a tone as if he had just discovered Chen Xing: "Who is this? Your student?"
"No, this is a photographer who wants to record our lives."
"No! Photographer? Are you okay?"
He did not target Chen Xing, but looked towards Erken with a sense of oppression and said: "Are you going to post a video related to our profession? Let a group of ordinary people come to compete with us for money? What do you think?
Yes, isn’t it better that the fewer people block the road?”

"People without foundation cannot find the place where the meteorite landed."
"The power of money is infinite, little Mathieson." He looked at Chen Xing, who was confused, and continued to say to Erken Mathieson, "I know you want to be famous and surpass your uncle, but you
You cannot make us famous by pushing us to the public, you are betraying us."
"I never thought about it this way." Erken Mattison said in a low tone.
Chen Xing became even more confused when she saw his expression.
Is this a quarrel?
It doesn’t really look like it. It’s more like a one-sided lecture. Who is this person? He looks at me with such fierce eyes.
Fortunately, he stood up, still said something that Chen Xing couldn't understand, and then stretched out his meteorite detection stick and walked away. He still had time to look back at Chen Xing and Erken Mattison.
Show disdain.
So angry.
My fists were clenched.
If you have the ability to speak English, speak French!
What the hell.
Chen Xing asked in a seemingly unconcerned tone: "Who is he? What did he say?"
"Nothing said."
Erken Mattison shook his head, took a few bites of whole wheat bread and said, "He is also a Dane and one of the most powerful meteorite hunters in Northern Europe. If he is here, it means that my calculations are correct.
The meteorite must have landed in this area."
"Did you quarrel with him?"
Chen Xing continued to ask. He was really curious. If he didn't know the reason, he would not be able to sleep.
"No."
Erken Mattison thought for a while and decided to tell Chen Xing, saying:
"He feels that the industry of meteorite hunters should be hidden in a small circle. After all, as long as the landing site of the meteorite is calculated, our job can be replaced by a farmer. At most, we can find a specialized person to analyze the things that these farmers find.
Identification."
Meteorite hunters, the threshold of this industry can be said to be high or low, but for the value of meteorites, this threshold can be said to be ignored.
Chen Xing finally knew why they were quarreling.
To be continued...
