Since there was this precedent, then similar things might happen in the future. The people who won the bid today might lose the mines they bid for tomorrow … Therefore, Kars agreed to Li Zhicheng's matter.
"Ah!" Li Zhicheng didn't expect Kars to actually agree, and he was very happy. "Then, I will trouble you, General Kars."
"As for you going to bid again, this can only depend on your true strength. I can't interfere with this. The entire bidding process will be fair and just," said Kars.
"Okay … I understand …" Li Zhicheng sighed and hung up the phone after exchanging a few pleasantries.
He thought that General Kars could mediate and let them get a gold mine or diamond mine at a lower price, but he didn't expect to be rejected by General Kars.
However, it was true that Country X was now General Kars' own territory. The rent collected was also his own income. If the price was low, wouldn't it make him lose money?
Therefore, Li Zhicheng also calculated in his heart to see if he could go to Country X to get a mine. Anyway, he had a large amount of money in his hands that was swindled from the Huang Family. It would be a waste not to use it. Li Zhicheng was not distressed about other people's money.
It didn't take long for Li Tianyu's phone call to come in again. Li Zhicheng picked it up. "Tianyu, General Kars promised us about the iron mine. When the time comes, you should explain the situation to the organizer. It should be fine. If it doesn't work, General Kars said that he will come forward to solve it again."
"That's the case. That's great!" Li Tianyu breathed a sigh of relief. The African business was the Li Family's business, but it was also Li Tianyu's business! The domestic affairs were all handled by his elder brother, Li Tianjia. Therefore, if he wanted to make some achievements to show his father, he could only start with overseas business. Once there was a problem with the business here and he returned to the country, he couldn't show off in front of his elder brother. This was also a situation that Li Tianyu didn't want to see, so he was particularly concerned about the affairs in Africa. "It seems that General Kars still takes care of us."
"This is true … However, according to him, this bidding is handled by the military of Country X. Kars is now only responsible for internal affairs and does not ask about the military. Therefore, this time, we have to rely on ourselves for other bidding!" said Li Zhicheng.
"Father, do you mean that we are going to expand our business in Country X?" Li Tianyu was stunned and asked in surprise. He was just thinking about how to keep the iron mine so that his position in the family would not be affected. However, if the Li family increased its investment in Country X, then the importance of Li Tianyu's position would immediately be highlighted.
"Well, I do have this plan. The money we got from the Huang Family is just sitting there. It's useless, so I plan to invest it!" Li Zhicheng said, "Now the situation on your side is stable. General Kars completely controls the overall situation. It is a good thing for us!"
"That's for sure!" Li Tianyu said excitedly, "Father, which aspect should we invest in?"
"We will definitely invest in gold mines or diamond mines with high profits!" Li Zhicheng said, "You need to pay attention to the bidding information. We will fight for it."
"Alright! I understand! " Li Tianyu said hurriedly. If the family invested in gold mines or diamond mines here, then the overseas business would account for a large proportion of the family's overall business. As a result, his status and right to speak would increase in the future.
"En, then these things will be handed over to you!" Li Zhicheng said, "Inquire about the bidding rules. Tianjia and I may also go there. We will bid together," said Li Zhicheng.
"Okay, as soon as I have news here, I will call you," said Li Tianyu.
Hanging up the phone, Li Zhicheng smiled and looked at the funds in the bank account on the computer. There was a mocking smile at the corner of his mouth. "Hmph, Huang Xiaofei, I gave you face, but you didn't want it. Now I am using your money to invest in gold mines, but you can't get a penny …"
At the same time, Huang Xiaofei also got the news of Country X in Africa. Although he did not intend to think about the investment in Country X, the things that happened in Country X were still affecting his nerves …
When he saw that all the minerals in Country X were ready to be recovered for unified distribution, Huang Xiaofei's mood was a lot more balanced. After all, he was not the first, and he would not be the last.
When General Kars gained a foothold, he began to recover and reform all the minerals in the territory. He was just one step ahead of them.
The only thing he was not reconciled with was that he was actually tricked by Li Zhicheng and his son afterward, and he was cheated of forty billion patacas …
"Dad, are you still paying attention to Country X?" Huang Rongtian glanced at the laptop beside his father's bed and saw some news about Country X on it.
"General Kars decided to recover all the mining in the territory and re-bid for distribution!" Huang Xiaofei said, "We are not coincidental."
Huang Rongtian nodded. "We were a little too hasty before. If we enter Country X now, there will definitely be no problems and worries. I didn't expect General Kars to have some skills. He quickly pacified all the armed forces in the territory and directly controlled the situation … "
"Yeah, I was too hasty. If I were not so anxious, I would wait until now and bid through normal channels. I can also get a good mine …" Huang Xiaofei sighed and said with some disappointment.
"Well, Father, since things have passed, then don't think so much …" Although Huang Rongtian was very regretful in his heart, there was no other way at the moment.
After all, when he was preparing to invest in the gold mine of Country X for the first time, he was also in favor. Although he objected the second time, it could only be the pot calling the kettle black. What's more, now that his father was in such a state, how could he dare to speak more? What if his father took things too hard?
"How is the company recently?" asked Huang Xiaofei.
"Ai!" Huang Rongtian knew that the company's affairs could not be hidden from his father, so it was better to tell the truth, so he said, "The current situation is very bad! The bank is urging the repayment, and some of our customers have stopped cooperating with the company … It's difficult … "
"If it really doesn't work, then apply for bankruptcy …" Huang Xiaofei said with some helplessness, "Now that things have come to this point, it is irreversible. It's all my fault! But you are still young, and there is still a day for you to make a comeback … "
"That's right! So, Father, don't worry too much. In your lifetime, you will definitely see the Huang Group revitalize! "Huang Rongtian said firmly.
In fact, when he said these words, his heart was beating like a drum. He didn't know if he could do it, but he said so to reassure his father and prevent him from taking things too hard.
"Okay, then I am looking forward to it!" Huang Xiaofei also thought it through these two days, and he did not have the previous pessimistic thoughts. After all, life's ups and downs were common. His children were still young, and maybe there was a chance for them to make a comeback.
"Moreover, little sister's boyfriend is coming soon. You have to be happy. You can't be sick in bed like this when he comes, right?" Huang Rongtian smiled.
"That's true!" Huang Xiaofei also smiled after listening. "It just so happens that my body is fine. I think I should be discharged from the hospital as soon as possible. I will also go to the company to see if there is anything I can help with. After all, this old face of mine still has some connections."

Yang Ming did not expect that the local bidding actually had such a custom. It was really the cruel interest of the rich … It was like the slave owners in ancient Rome.
However, in this backward small country, these mine owners were almost the same as slave owners, so Yang Ming had no way to ask them for anything. Every place had its own local rules. Although he was relatively strong, this kind of strong intervention to change the status quo was not necessarily a good thing.
So, Yang Ming instructed Li Qiang to do things according to the rules there.
After waiting for a while, Alice's men sent a few sets of clothes for Yang Ming to choose from. They were all very stylish suits. Yang Ming casually picked one and put it on. Unexpectedly, Alice really prepared a white scarf for him!
Yang Ming did not hesitate and put it on directly. Anyway, who knew him here? If he was embarrassed, it would be Alice.
About half an hour later, Alice came over in person and informed Yang Ming that the gambling was ready. Yang Ming could go over.
"My outfit is not bad, right?" Yang Ming stood up and showed it in front of Alice.
"En, it's really good. Filming on TV will definitely attract a lot of fans." Alice nodded and said somewhat sarcastically. However, it was undeniable that Yang Ming was indeed very outstanding. His tall figure, coupled with this suit, was somewhat like Xu Wenqiang from the Bund.
"Do you have any feelings for me? You can start to develop feelings for me now. After a while, when the gambling is over, I will take back my reward. "Yang Ming said as his eyes scanned Alice's body.
"It doesn't matter. I can get into the state soon." Alice snorted. "You can rest assured. I will not go back on what I promised you."
"That's good." Yang Ming nodded. "Then, let's go and meet the Korean King of Gamblers …"
What Yang Ming didn't expect was that when he entered the venue, Alice really prepared the song for the entrance of the God of Gamblers, Gao Jin. Yang Ming was also happy to follow the rhythm and enter the venue.
Yang Ming's farce made the Korean King of Gamblers, Park Zhenan, frown slightly, but he didn't say anything. When the music was over, and Yang Ming sat down, Park Zhenan said in a Korean English tone, "Hello, I am the Korean King of Gamblers, Park Zhenan."
"Oh, hello, little Nannan." Yang Ming smiled after listening. "I am the World God of Gamblers, Gao Jin …"
Park Zhenan was stunned. He thought, Aren't you Yang Ming? When did you change your name to Gao Jin?
Yang Ming continued, "I am a fan of the World God of Gamblers, Gao Jin. Ai, although my idol is very bad * ss, to deal with you, I am enough as a fan."
If Park Zhenan hadn't seen Yang Ming's video, he would have turned around and left. What is this nonsense? I am also a person with status! However, when he thought of his task today, Park Zhenan could only endure. "Hello, Mr. Gao Jin's fan, what do you want to play?"
"Anything is fine. Five-card stud, blackjack, big or small." Yang Ming said, "Guess the dice points are also fine. Let's play whatever you are good at!"
"Five-card stud then." Park Zhenan was not polite. "However, when I gamble, there must be a bet. I will not participate in a gamble without a bet."
"You don't want to gamble. If you don't gamble, you lose." Yang Ming heard that Park Zhenan was so troublesome, so he said impatiently.
Park Zhenan's mouth twitched. He looked up and saw Alice's gaze. Park Zhenan snorted and endured it. "Gambling with your life, do you dare?"
"Whatever." Yang Ming said indifferently, "Okay, let's start."
"Are you listening to me or not? I said gambling with your life. Are you sure you heard it clearly? "Park Zhenan looked at Yang Ming with some doubts.
"Isn't it just gambling with your life? Whoever loses will die, right? Let's start quickly! "said Yang Ming.
Park Zhenan snorted and said, "Then let's start."
Although Yang Ming said it very casually, he had secretly begun to pay attention in his heart. Is this Park Zhenan sick? Why does it seem like I have a deep hatred with him?
I'm not a mortal enemy with him. It's just a competition between gambling skills. This guy actually wants to gamble with his life. Did he eat the wrong medicine? Yang Ming was very skeptical about the real purpose of this guy looking for him to gamble with.
However, after thinking about it, I haven't offended anyone in the gambling world, right? Except for the people of Nancheng Casino … Could it be that he was sent by Nancheng Casino?
It's impossible. Nancheng Casino knows my strength. If they send someone, isn't it tantamount to sending someone to their death? Moreover, this Park Zhenan has also seen the video of my gambling. Does he have the confidence to win?
Therefore, Yang Ming didn't care about playing with this Park Zhenan. What Yang Ming cared about was his real purpose. Is it as simple as just comparing notes with me?
However, even if Yang Ming asked directly at the moment, he believed that Park Zhenan wouldn't tell the truth. Everything could only be taken one step at a time to see what kind of move Park Zhenan would use in the end.
"One game to decide the winner or loser?" asked Yang Ming.
"Everyone prepares fifty chips until they lose all." Park Zhenan said.
As soon as Park Zhenan's voice fell, the casino's people helped the two to prepare the chips. The reason why it was fifty chips was that the chips didn't count the value. The final bet was just their lives.
The chips were piled up on the table of the two people. Each person had fifty small plastic pieces, which were the casino's special chips. Park Zhenan took the towel handed over by the waiter on the side and wiped his hands.
Generally, gambling masters would wipe their hands before gambling. This way, they could avoid static electricity on their hands. When they touched the cards, it was not easy to stick or have accidents.
After Yang Ming took the towel, he didn't wipe his hands but wiped his face directly. Then, he threw it aside. "I just slept. I was still a little confused. Now I'm wiping my face and I'm awake."
Park Zhenan had been accustomed to Yang Ming's unconventional play, so he didn't show too much inexplicable at this time. He just felt that Yang Ming didn't look like a gambling master at all.
After the preparation work was done, the dealers also stood by the gambling table and began to shuffle the cards. In a big casino like Alice, those who could serve as such senior dealers were not ordinary people. They were more or less gambling masters. They could even shuffle the cards they wanted according to the casino's instructions.
However, that was also for ordinary gamblers. In a real gambling master duel, it was impossible for them to do anything. It was easy to be seen through at a glance.
Therefore, the dealer sent by Alice Casino today was only a dealer who was skilled in shuffling cards, but not proficient in gambling. Such a dealer was the fairest. No matter which side lost in the end, the casino couldn't be blamed.
The dealer took out an unopened deck of poker cards and quickly tore off the packaging. Then, he took out the cards and spread them on the gambling table. This step was to check the cards. It was a necessary step in gambling to let both sides see if there was a problem with the cards.
Park Zhenan quickly glanced at the poker cards on the table and nodded, indicating that he had checked them. There was no problem.
Yang Ming was too lazy to look at them one by one. When he saw Park Zhenan nodding, he also waved his hand, indicating that there was no problem and they could start. In this case, it was impossible to cheat, so checking the cards was actually the same as not checking the cards. There was no difference.
The dealer smiled and took the cards on the table in his hand, then he shuffled the cards neatly. When the dealer was about to deal the cards, Park Zhenan suddenly said, "Wait a minute!"
"What's the matter?" The dealer stopped his movements with some doubts and looked at Park Zhenan.
"Wait a minute. Let him decide which side to deal with first. Otherwise, when he loses, I don't want him to use this excuse to deny it." Park Zhenan was very "generous" and waved his hand.
Yang Ming was very disdainful of Park Zhenan's pretending to be generous. To put it nicely, it was magnanimous. To put it bluntly, it was arrogant. Even if you were pretending, you shouldn't do it like this!
"Are you sure that you can win?" Yang Ming looked at Park Zhenan with interest. He didn't know where his confidence came from.
"It's hard to say for others, but for you …" Park Zhenan smiled. "I'm the King of Gambling in Korea."
"Your country doesn't seem to allow gambling, right?" Yang Ming snorted. "Then come on. I'll let you see what is called a frog at the bottom of the well. You deal the cards to him first. "
