The full stop party was held on King Island's Cross Street, which was usually a busy black gold abalone market. Now it had become a happy scene.
May 1 was International Workers' Day, on which workers in more than 80 countries around the world enjoyed a short holiday. It was fitting that the full stop party was held on that day.
"Do you know what's wonderful? "What's wonderful is that after this holiday, the other workers still have to work, and we really have to rest!" said a big man dressed casually and covered in famous brands.
The big man was a black gold abalone harvester, and the people who came to Cross Street were either harvesters or buyers, all of whom were rich.
Usually at sea, harvesters suffered from the wind and the sun. They all had rough skin and a depressed temperament, much like bitter sailors.
But in fact, they were all rich people, each of whom was worth millions. Other than harvesting black gold abalone at sea, they could wear famous brands, drive luxury cars, and live in mansions.
Hearing the big man's words, Li Du smiled and nodded. "That's great."
Another harvester walked over. He wore a large gold chain that was as thick as a thumb. Eight of his ten fingers were adorned with all sorts of gemstone rings. He was covered in jewels.
He interrupted, "Gail, you're wrong. We're going on vacation, and Li can continue to make money. This lucky bastard can make money all year round. "
The big man, Gail, laughed. "That's only in theory. The Antarctic cold wave is coming soon. Who would dare to go into the sea? Let's go on vacation, brother! "
A waiter came over with a tray with drinks such as beer, champagne, and spirits.
Today, the harvesters would drink to their heart's content. Before, no one had dared to drink because they had to dive to ensure their safety. From today onwards, they could indulge in wine and meat.
Li Du took a cocktail. Gail was right. Although he was allowed to go into the water to fish all year round, he would not go into the water for a while.
Many people came over to say hello to him, and the harvesters seemed to have become good friends with each other.
Just looking at the party, people would never have imagined that not long ago, these people regarded each other as opponents and guarded against each other like thieves.
The harvesters came to Li Du not to pretend to be friendly. They did have something to ask Li Du for help.
"Li, it's spring in the northern hemisphere. I want to take my family to China. You're from China, aren't you? Can you recommend a few places? "
"I want to go to America. Li, you and Mr. Fox must be very familiar with America. Do you think I should go to Los Angeles or New York? Or Las Vegas? "
"Li, which country in Asia is suitable for this season? I heard that Thailand is very interesting. What do you think? "
Li Du tried to tell them what he knew. If they wanted to go to China, he would give them some advice. If they wanted to go to places like Thailand or Cambodia, he would not be able to help them.
As night fell, the crossroad became more and more lively.
The streets were decorated with lanterns and colored banners, and there were bright lamps hanging everywhere. A large stage was erected on the street, and there was a music group singing loudly on it.
A large number of beer barrels were sent up through the waterway. The beer barrels were piled up like a small mountain. Now that alcohol was free, they could drink it or splash it on their friends to play around.
The full stop party was organized by black gold abalone buyers. Many of them were from top hotels around the world, so organizing the party was a piece of cake for them.
Black gold abalone harvesters were rich, but most of them were local tycoons. They were manual workers who usually enjoyed life, mostly relying on jewelry or luxury cars and mansions.
Therefore, the purpose of a party for these people was to have a grandeur, to be glorious, and to be able to spend money like water.
There were many barbecue grills and various makeshift kitchens on the crossroad. Dozens of national specialties could be found here, as well as a variety of wine.
At this time of year, the island was a carnival. Tourists were welcome to join the party, but each person had to pay 50 Australian dollars. After entering, they could eat and drink as much as they wanted.
For many people, it was worth it to spend 50 dollars and enjoy a feast.
There were many beautiful girls at the party. These girls were gorgeously dressed, either sexy or pure, and people could always find their favorite dishes.
These girls were not organized by the hotel, but came on their own. They were looking for rich husbands or hooking up with rich people.
Everyone in Australia knew that black gold abalone harvesters were rich, but they were usually busy diving or traveling abroad.
Therefore, the annual gathering of harvesters became a good opportunity for the girls to get in touch with them.
The girls knew very well that as long as they got the chance to marry a harvester, they would not have to worry about wearing gold and silver and having a good life in the future.
The full stop party was also a big party. The harvesters would not refuse these beautiful girls who came to their door. They were not only interested in sex, but also talked about feelings.
Many harvesters' wives met at this party, but considering that most of the girls who came to the party were greedy for wealth, these couples often did not end well.
Sophie's appearance and temperament were top-notch among the girls. Some harvesters had never seen her before and thought she was also there to hook up with a rich husband, so they came up to say hello.
But there were still more people who knew her and Li Du, so every time a harvester went to flirt with Sophie, there would immediately be people watching.
Sophie was calm and introverted. She did not care about such things and would explain every time.
Even if the harvesters did not know Li Du, they had heard of his name. After all, he was the biggest dark horse in the black gold abalone market and the hero who cracked the child trafficking case.
At night, bonfires were lit everywhere, and alcohol was being delivered like water. Led by the DJ, the streets were constantly filled with joyous shouts.
Li Du inadvertently noticed a drunk Brooks in the crowd. He knew that the other party was looking for the sea lady, so he took her away first and avoided Brooks.
Brooks, who was carrying a beer bottle, saw this scene and shouted at the top of his lungs, "B * tch, are you going against me?"
Li Du sneered. "Are you going back to the police station?"
Brooks threw the bottle hard on the ground and left, swearing.
The sea lady smiled. "Thank you, Mr. Li. Otherwise, I'm afraid I would have been insulted again today."
Li Du said, "It's nothing. He went too far."
The sea lady said, "I've always wanted to leave him, but I didn't have the right opportunity until I met you this time. I haven't formally thanked you yet. Thank you for saving me. "
Li Du waved his hand and smiled. "You're too polite. How is this saving?"
The sea lady said seriously, "Of course it is. Besides, sir, I have a presumptuous request."
