Hearing Li Du's words, the group of gem hunters became excited.
"Hey buddy, are you kidding us? Is this interesting? "
"Are you serious? You're really willing to take it? "
"Ten thousand dollars, no, five thousand dollars. I'll sell it for five thousand dollars."
Li Du smiled. "Give me an account number. As long as you guys agree to my trade request, you'll know if I'm kidding or not."
Old Deckard stared at him with his cloudy eyes and told him his bank account number with a face full of anticipation.
Li Du used his mobile phone to do some banking and said, "Wait for thirty seconds."
Soon, Old Deckard's phone rang with a text message. He opened the message and the surrounding gem hunters gathered around.
Looking at the screen, Old Deckard looked at the crowd blankly and said, "Twenty, twenty thousand dollars. He really gave me twenty thousand dollars."
"Not for you," Li Du said with a smile. "It's a trade. Your land will be mine for the next two days."
Old Deckard's lips trembled and he hugged Li Du, tears streaming down his face. "Oh, God, oh, thank you, buddy! D * mn it, no, I'm very grateful to you! Thank you! "
The others were excited and shouted, "Me, me too." "I'll sell it to you too." "I apologize for calling you Chinaman. Please forgive me for being an idiot."
No one was willing to go against money.
Seeing everyone instantly turn from despair to hope, seeing them regain their vitality, Sophie smiled and said, "So this is how God's messengers appear."
Brendan and Alicia were dumbfounded. "What God's messenger? Is Li crazy? Seven people, 140,000 dollars! "
Besides Li Du, there were seven other groups of people who were fooled. Each group was given 20,000 dollars, which added up to 140,000 dollars — a huge sum!
However, Li Du did not feel the pinch. He had earned more than 2.6 million dollars in the past two days. After deducting the dividends given to Godzilla and Big Quinn, he still had more than 2.5 million dollars in his hands.
Moreover, he could get the land in their hands after the trade. Stevenson and Christopher had rented a total of two square kilometers of land. Li Du had searched one square kilometer. There was still one square kilometer that he had not searched. There would definitely be a lot of opals in it.
This piece of land could earn Li Du more than 140,000 dollars, or even more than 2.6 million dollars.
Of course, he could spend a thousand yuan to rent the same piece of land, but the meaning would be different.
Old Deckard and the others looked so miserable when they were cheated that he could not bear to see it.
In addition, he had just entered this circle, so he needed to make a good impression. Americans were too xenophobic. If he did not make a good impression, it would be hard for him to work in the future.
He had only been here for two days, and Stevenson and his group had already targeted him. If he continued to stay here in the future, how many people would target him?
From a young age, Li Du had known the power of the people's war. He didn't want to be on the opposing side of the gem hunters. He had to gain their support, just like he had in the Flagstaff storage auction industry.
One hundred and forty thousand dollars to bribe a group of people and earn a good reputation was nothing to Li Du. After all, as long as he found a good gemstone, he could sell it for two hundred thousand dollars.
The 140,000 yuan was quickly transferred. The bank's customer service even called. After verifying his identity, they asked him if there was a problem with the transfer.
Li Du dealt with the bank's customer service and treated them to a meal.
Money paved the way, and everything went smoothly. He easily won the friendship of these people.
Of course, the friendship formed by money was the most fragile friendship. However, Li Du had no intention of becoming best friends with them. He just wanted to help them out of pity.
After settling this series of matters, it was already night time when they returned to the national park.
Knowing that Li Du and his group had encountered wolves, these people rented the land nearby and pitched their tents not far away from Li Du and his group to protect them.
Li Du was depressed. He did not expect these people to return the favor. In fact, he did not want to be with outsiders. He hoped that his actions could be more secretive.
However, since things had come to this, he could only instruct Godzilla, Big Quinn, and the others to be careful.
More than ten iodine tungsten lamps were erected, and the surrounding land was illuminated as bright as day.
Li Du started to get busy on the newly obtained one-hectare land. Fortunately, the one-hectare land was not small. In addition, everyone's vision was poor at night, so the people around them could not see clearly what they were doing.
The little bug flew around the gravel beach. It was easier for him to search for opals here. Firstly, he had experience. Secondly, Stevenson and the others had divided the land during the day and marked it with ropes.
The area marked by the ropes was one-tenth of a hectare, which was 1,000 square meters. Li Du searched the land piece by piece more meticulously.
Sophie was also very serious about searching for opals. She still wanted to find a piece for her father as a gift.
Li Du released the little bug and soon found a gemstone about the size of two of his thumbs. This gemstone was covered in clay and was located on the surface of the gravel beach. He did not need to dig and could reach out to pick it up.
After getting the gemstone, he dug out half of the clay and threw it around the area that Sophie was searching for without batting an eyelid.
After throwing the gemstone, he continued to search. When he found it, he would put a piece of preserved fruit in it. Crispy Noodles would pick up the scent of the preserved fruit and pick up the shiny opal.
After about half an hour, Sophie suddenly let out a cheer. She held the gemstone that was still stained with clay and jumped up. She said excitedly, "I found it, I found it, I found it!"
Li Du pretended to be surprised and turned around. "You found an opal?"
Sophie nodded her head vigorously. Her blond hair was stuck to her face with sweat and was stained with mud and sand. She looked a little disheveled.
However, she felt that her efforts were all worth it. Because of her efforts, she felt that her gains were even more valuable.
Li Du helped Sophie wash away the clay with water. Sophie squatted beside him and said excitedly, "I didn't notice it at first because it was almost covered in clay. Luckily, God bless me. I hit it with a hammer and then I saw it."
After washing the clay, the opal revealed its sparkling and translucent appearance.
This gemstone was very beautiful and very pure. There were some gray, green, and purple patterns in it. The green pattern was continuous in small pieces and the purple spots were at the top.
Li Du raised the gemstone and exclaimed, "My God, it's really beautiful."
Sophie nodded her head vigorously. "Yes, yes, it's really beautiful! What do you think it looks like? Don't those purple spots look like stars? Don't the gray and green patterns look like a small mountain? "
After hearing what she said, Li Du felt it and said, "It really looks like it."
Every type of opal had its own unique and most valuable pattern. Due to the fact that the fire opal had a fiery red background, its most beautiful pattern was related to the sun and burning clouds.
The most valuable pattern of a black opal was the starry sky, because the black opal itself was black and had the mystery of the night sky. If there was a bright pattern inside, it would look like a starry sky.
