Everyone had something they were good at, and as a leader, one had to do their job.
Brother Wolf and Godzilla were quiet and efficient, so Li Du often arranged for them to follow him to do more private physical work.
Lu Guan was good at spreading rumors. Only one day after Li Du gave him the order, a piece of news began to circulate in many bars in the town:
Li Du, a foreigner, was deceived by Blanchett and took over the number 115 mine, which Blanchett had dug for five years to no avail, and then dug out black opal from it!
The news of Li Du being deceived spread in the town a few days ago. The miners did not pay much attention to it because such things happened too often throughout the year.
However, Li Du actually dug out gems from the number 115 mine after being deceived? As soon as the news appeared, it attracted the attention of a large number of miners and mine owners.
Most of them knew about the number 115 mine, which Blanchett took over five years ago. Historically, no gems had ever been dug out there. Blanchett thought there was an opportunity, so he bought it at a low price and started digging.
As a result, he dug for five years, almost all over the mine, but did not dig out any dog sh * t.
This kind of mine had a name, "dog sh * t mine," which meant that it was as worthless as dog sh * t.
Originally, the mine was going to fall into Blanchett's hands, but he was lucky enough to find Li Du, who sold the worthless dog sh * t mine for a good price.
Five hundred and fifty thousand dollars was not much money for a big mine, but for a dog sh * t mine, it was a great price.
When the news came out, many people paid attention to it, but they did not believe the authenticity of the news — how could black opal be so easy to dig out?
In the evening, Li Du drove to Blanchett's house with Brother Wolf.
It was still the old woman with the child who opened the door. She shook her head and said, "Sorry, sir, Blanchett is not home."
Li Du said, "It doesn't matter, ma'am. I'm here to give him a gift. It doesn't matter if he's home or not. I'll leave the gift for you."
The old woman had a lot of experience dealing with people like Li Du, probably because Blanchett usually cheated too many people. There were too many people who came to him, and the old woman had more experience dealing with them.
She knew that she couldn't accept this kind of 'gift' because someone had once planted a homemade time bomb in it.
At that time, it was Blanchett who cheated a miner and stole a gem that the miner had dug up with great difficulty. The miner was so angry that he made a time bomb with the explosives used in the mine.
Therefore, the old woman firmly refused, "I'm sorry, sir, I can't accept your gift. Wait for my son to come back, wait for him to accept your gift."
Li Du snapped his fingers, and Brother Wolf opened the gift box. Inside was a pair of large frozen black gold abalones.
"That's a pity. I just asked someone to send this precious seafood from King Island to thank you for your help, Mr. Blanchett."
Bob had said that Blanchett was greedy and took advantage of people. The two black gold abalones were large, plump, fresh, and valuable. They were hard to find in central Australia.
The two black gold abalones were like bait that finally drew out the big fish, Blanchett.
After seeing the two black gold abalones brought by Li Du upstairs, he quietly slipped into the backyard, pushed open the door from the back, and walked in, pretending to have just come home.
Opening the door and entering the house, he showed a surprised expression to Li Du, opened his hands exaggeratedly, and said, "Ha, Li, why are you here? Please come in. I went to Burke recently and didn't get in touch with you. I'm sorry. "
He was not afraid that Li Du would make trouble. Before going downstairs, he called the police station. He had relatives at the police station who would drive over immediately.
That way, if Li Du made trouble, the police could arrest him, which Blanchett was more than happy to see.
After entering the door, Li Du handed the black gold abalone gift box to Blanchett and said with a smile, "I've been here before, but you weren't home at that time. I'm here to thank you."
Blanchett was stunned and said, "Thank me?"
Li Du snapped his fingers again, and Brother Wolf took out some photos from his arms and gave them to him.
He took the photos and showed them to Blanchett, saying, "Yes, thank you for helping me buy that mine. I found these things in the mine according to the information left in Bob's diary."
The photo showed a pile of neatly arranged ores, most of which had been polished, revealing the gems wrapped inside.
Seeing the photo, Blanchett gasped and said in shock, "God, this, this, what's going on?"
Li Du handed the photo to him and said, "There are gems in it. My guys and I worked day and night, and after a week, we finally dug these things out. I believe we will find more in the future if we continue to dig."
Blanchett stared blankly at the photo and said subconsciously, "How is this possible? Oh, I mean, how could you find so many gems so quickly? "
Li Du smiled and said, "Bob left some information in his diary that there were gems in the 114 and 115 mines. I followed his records and found the gems in the 115 mine."
Speaking of this, he added, "A week ago, after I took over the mine, I looked for gems directly and confirmed the authenticity of the information in the diary. I wanted to thank you, but you weren't home. "
The corner of Blanchett's mouth twitched, and he said, "Congratulations, man. You're lucky. You're very lucky."
Li Du spread out his hands and smiled. "Actually, I bought the mine with a purpose. By the way, I heard that the 114 mine is yours? You're also very lucky. There are gems in that mine. "
He hoped that Blanchett would believe him and dig the mine well. Anyway, as far as he knew with the little bug's exploration, there was only a gem vein in the southeast corner of the number 114 mine, which had already been dug out by him.
Hearing this, Blanchett's eyes became fiery. He invited Li Du and the others in and asked his mother to make his treasured coffee for them.
Then he asked expectantly, "Where are the gems in the 114 mine? Can you help me determine the location? "
Li Du smiled and said, "I can't say, but there must be gems in it. I went to see it and saw signs. You have to search carefully."
Brother Wolf looked at the sky and said, "Boss, we should go back for dinner."
Blanchett waved his hand and said, "Yes, it's time to eat, but you don't have to go back. Just eat at my place. Haha, we've known each other for so long, but I haven't treated you guys to dinner yet."
That night, the rumors began to change: What had been said before was false. Blanchett had not deceived Li Du by selling the number 115 mine to him, but Li Du had specifically asked to buy it because there were gems in the mine.
