Li Du was worried that Musa's people would spread the news. He did not know how many diamonds there were in the mine, but he guessed that it would not be a small amount.
Not only were there diamonds here, but it was also a high-quality mine. Diamonds could be found on the surface of the mountain.
He was very lucky to have come across such a diamond mine.
Fortunately, he had been soft-hearted and saved Musa. If this was his reward for saving someone, then Li Du was willing to be a kind and charitable person for the rest of his life.
Musa told him that two of his people had died, and the rest were hunting in the tribe.
Li Du guessed that it was unlikely that they would spread the news. Musa also said that they did not know what the diamonds represented. From his point of view, they could only be used to exchange for food in Remonin's territory. Other than that, they were useless.
He also told Li Du that the stones did not look good. They brought them back for the women in the tribe to use as decorations, but the women in the tribe threw them away.
An uncut diamond would not be able to display its peerless elegance!
Li Du wandered around the mountain with a flashlight in spite of the darkness, checking out the surrounding terrain and the direction of the mountain.
He had to find a way to take control of this place. As long as he had the diamond mine and the Seagull Island in Australia, he could live a carefree life.
There was a small canyon next to the mountain. Although it was called a canyon, it was actually a depression. The terrain looked a little strange, and the shape of the depression was also very strange.
There were trees and stones on the hill, and there were also trees and stones in the depression, but the whole was relatively smooth. Some places even shone with fluorescence. When the flashlight shone, the folds were shiny.
"These places can't be diamonds, can they?" Li Du's heart trembled.
He squatted down to take a closer look and found that the reflective places were not diamonds, but ordinary stones with a smooth appearance.
Because the appearance and terrain of the stones were different from the surrounding areas, he collected some stones and planned to find an expert later to figure out what was going on.
When the sun rose the next day, they continued to search the mountain for diamonds and check out the situation.
Li Du found two trees growing in a crisscross pattern on the mountainside. He was not sure what species it was, because the tree was full of bird nests!
Yes, this tree was full of bird nests. From the top of the tree to the lowest branches, bird nests of all sizes hung on it, and countless birds flew between them.
These birds are weaver birds. They like to live in groups.
Coincidentally, the group was running low on food, so Li Du instructed Brother Wolf and Godzilla to look for some bird eggs.
Ah Meow was an expert in this area. When he saw Brother Wolf and Little Red go to the nest to find the eggs, he jumped up the tree lightly, opened his mouth, and brought the eggs down one by one.
Little Flathead was an omnivore and loved to eat everything. When it saw the bird egg on the ground, it ran over and licked it with its tongue, rolling it into its mouth and eating with relish.
Ah Meow was very unhappy and wanted to go over and slap it away. But considering Flathead's hotheaded personality, he thought about it and did not do it. Instead, he left resentfully.
Sophie carried Little Flathead back and asked with a smile, "We found the diamond mine. Are we going back now? What about the honey badger? "
Li Du was in a good mood after discovering the diamond mine. He said, "What else can I do? Adopt it. It doesn't matter if it's one or two, four or five! "
Sophie pursed her lips and smiled. "Are you sure? It's not a good-tempered child. If you adopt it, it might hurt you. "
Li Du did not care and said, "We'll talk about it when the time comes. It's a mascot. You see, I've only adopted it for a few days and I found a diamond mine …"
At this point, he looked thoughtfully at Little Flathead.
This naughty child had really brought him a lot of fortune. When he first adopted Little Flathead, he had gotten a lot of diamonds and jewelry from Goodswin's office.
Now, after adopting it for a while, he had found another diamond mine.
Perhaps it was just a coincidence, but it was reasonable to say that it brought him good luck.
Brother Wolf and Big Ivan went around to check out the terrain to see if they could find people and ask them where they were.
Along the way, they had been led around by Musa. Li Du and the others had lost their sense of direction, let alone knowing where they were.
There were no residents or tribes around. It was a wilderness.
There was no cell phone signal in such a place. Brother Wolf used astronomical observation and time observation to do a simple measurement to determine the latitude and longitude of the place.
However, the data he had determined was very rough.
In the end, Brother Wolf had no choice but to climb up the highest mountain to map the surrounding terrain. He was going to go back and use the original map comparison method to determine the specific location of the place.
After finding the diamond mine, they packed their things and started their return journey.
The return journey was much smoother. Brother Wolf used a compass and they tried to walk in a straight line so that they could better determine their location.
Finally, they met some pedestrians. After asking around, they learned that they were now within the administrative area of Mapungubwe National Park.
No wonder there were so many mountains and forests. If they continued north, they would reach Mapungubwe National Park, one of the largest national parks in South Africa.
The small mountain where they found the diamond had no name. The surrounding area was called Amengda. In the local language, it meant the residence of the God of Thunder.
Li Du thanked him and smiled. Sophie asked curiously, "What are you smiling at?"
"I'm smiling. We just decided to adopt the little honey badger and haven't given it a name. In the end, a good name fell from the sky," Li Du said.
Sophie heard him and immediately said, "What do you want to call it? Amengda? "
"To put it simply, we'll call it Ah Meng!"
Ali, Ah Ow, Ah Meow, and now Ah Meng. Other than Crispy Noodles, the other four all started with the word "A", which was easy to remember and appropriate.
Little Flathead was very fierce, so it was really appropriate to name it Ah Meng.
After the mobile phone had signal, Li Du first contacted President Cole and said directly, "What procedures do foreigners need to go through to contract a mine in South Africa? How should we go about it? "
Cole was surprised and said, "What did you find?"
Li Du said, "I haven't found anything yet, but I have some clues. I want to consult you and ask you to help me contact some reliable people. I want to contract an area."
Cole realized that he might have kept his promise and found the diamond.
However, Li Du did not say anything. He understood that the other party was wary of him, so he did not mind. Instead, he said, "No problem, I will help you contact a team immediately."
Li Du hired a car to send them back to the edge of the forest. Their car was still hidden and had not been discovered. However, due to the heavy rain, the car had some problems.
