Chapter 176 - 176 An Abundance of Women’s Gold Hairpins! Is this a Princess’s Tomb? (2)
“You’re advancing the schedule?”
“Tsk, tsk, our host is getting arrogant now that he has amassed more fans, hasn’t he? He’s treating the thousands of us viewers as nobodies?”
“Are we heading to the next destination?”
!!
“Will you going to continue hunting at Daze Mountain?”
“The host has already searched every inch of that place; there’s nothing left!”
“I think Da’an Ridge is not bad! How about going to the northeast?”
“What treasures are there in the northeast, besides some Siberian tigers that we can only look at but not touch?”
“Would Genghis Khan’s tomb be there, by any chance?”
“You’re overthinking it. If Genghis Khan were to be buried, it would be in the grasslands!”
After some thought, Luo Feng addressed his viewers, “This time, we’re heading to Dalong Mountain! It’s quite far from where I currently am, and we’ll probably arrive there tomorrow afternoon!”
“Wow, we’re finally changing locations?”
“Do you need to get permits again this time?”
“Of course we need permits! Otherwise, if we dig up billions worth of treasure, wouldn’t it belong to the government instead?”
“Is Dalong Mountain an unclaimed land or a government-owned one?”
“I think it’s government-owned!”
“You’d need at least a few million to secure a month’s worth of foraging rights there.”
Upon announcing his next destination, word spread quickly throughout social media. Many people, drawn by the news, flooded Luo Feng’s channel all at once, giving him millions of concurrent viewers.
In the evening, as they passed through a county town, Luo Feng and the others found a hotel to stay in. Although the quality of the county hotel was not very high, these wealthy young heirs did not mind the shabbier accommodations. They could accept both the hardships of military life and the comforts of a wealthy lifestyle without any complaints.
By the next afternoon, Luo Feng and the others had reached the foot of Dalong Mountain. However, since it was already late in the day, they decided not to enter the mountain just yet.
“We’ll stay in this small town for the night!”
“And as for the permit, let’s apply for it tomorrow!”
“Once we secure the permits, we’ll immediately head into the mountains!”
During his journey there, Luo Feng had explained the various sights and sceneries to be expected at Dalong Mountain.
As such, the fact that Luo Feng did not immediately head into the mountains upon arrival had upset several of his viewers.
Nevertheless, they soon accepted Luo Feng’s decision, since the mountain was vast, and obtaining a month’s foraging permit was a troublesome matter. Moreover, as Dalong mountain was a popular tourist area, different from the previous Daze Mountain, even with the help of the wealthy youngsters, obtaining the permits would not be as quick as before.
Furthermore, during their 2-day-long road trip, the group had expended a decent chunk of their supplies, and as such, they had to replenish their stock before they started their next adventure.
Luo Feng led the rich heirs in making their purchases of essential food, candles, shovels, ropes, and other tools. After shopping, the boots of all their vehicles were filled with a lot of supplies.
It was worth mentioning that during the permit application process, they received an offer from a local archaeological team to join their group instead. However, Luo Feng refused their offer.
After all, if they were truly a capable group, they would not have needed to use the permit as leverage to have Luo Feng join their group, and would have already discovered plenty of treasures by themselves.
Fortunately, with the help of the second-generation heirs, Luo Feng managed to secure all mining rights outside the tourist areas of Dalong Mountain for a month at the price of 3 million yuan. With the matter settled, they were all set to depart the next morning.

Meanwhile, although it was already nighttime in China, it was daytime on the other side of the Pacific in the United States. In an office building, several executives from different companies were gathered for a meeting.
“Have you all heard? There’s a treasure hunter in China named Luo Feng who’s become incredibly popular recently!”
“I know this guy; I’ve watched his livestreams!”
This company was none other than the world’s most prestigious treasure hunting company, Odyssey. Although it was an ocean exploration company, everyone knew that it was essentially a treasure hunting company that specialized in salvaging sunken ships.
With the recent excavations of the large tomb and the shelter, Luo Feng had become quite famous domestically. Moreover, on the American YouTube platform, his livestreams easily attracted millions of viewers, as YouTube gathered audiences from both the United States and Europe. It was no surprise that he had so many viewers.
Coupled with the influence of the Japanese and Koreans, Luo Feng’s foreign fanbase was no less impressive than his domestic one. The largest portion of his international audience came from Western countries.
As the world’s leading treasure hunting company, Odyssey naturally paid attention to Luo Feng.
“It’s a pity that this guy seems to only search for treasure on land!” Upon hearing this, many people nodded in agreement. Their expertise was in underwater treasure hunting, but they were not too worried for now as there might be an opportunity for collaboration in the future. After all, the majority of the world’s treasures were hidden beneath the ocean’s surface.
Countless merchant ships and warships had sunk to the depths over the centuries, accumulating vast underwater treasures. Unlike on land, where anyone could pick up relics, the ocean floor was far less accessible.
…
…
The next day, before they began their journey into Dalong Mountain, Luo Feng naturally started the livestream. With the platform’s extensive promotion and the excitement surrounding the latest hunting site, “Dalong Mountain,” the livestream room saw a surge of 10 million concurrent viewers.
“The thorns here are so numerous and troublesome!” Leading the party into the mountain was none other than Luo Feng and his trusty Jungle Blade which he used to clear open a path. With each swing, he left a one-meter-wide path for Li Shishi and the others to follow.
“System, activate scanning!” Having discovered a suitable location, Luo Feng then activated his system.
