A car sped into the community hospital in Lightning Ridge, and then two burly miners dragged Blanchett out of the car like a dead dog.
A miner shouted with all his strength, "Doctor! Nurse! There's a patient bitten by a poisonous snake! Hurry up! Blanchett was bitten by a snake! Blanchett was bitten by a snake! "
Blanchett, who was weak, said angrily, "Keep your voice down, idiot. Do you want to tell the whole town about this stupid thing?"
The miner smiled and said, "Sorry, boss, I was too anxious."
"What a damn idiot," Blanchett said angrily.
The other miner said, "Boss, don't be angry. Anger will make the blood flow faster, and the snake venom will spread through the body faster. You know, then you can't be saved."
Hearing that someone had been bitten by a poisonous snake, the emergency doctors and nurses of the community hospital rushed over and pushed Blanchett into the hospital with a gurney.
The two miners stood at the door of the hospital, and one of them said, "The business you shouted just now was too big. I'm afraid a lot of people have heard the news."
The miner grinned and said, "I did it on purpose. It's a pity I didn't bring a loudspeaker. Otherwise, I could have shouted all over New South Wales."
The two men looked at each other and laughed at the same time.
That day, the news that Blanchett had been bitten by a poisonous snake reached Li Du's ears.
He had just returned to the hotel and was about to go to bed when he heard the news. He could not help but laugh. "That bastard is really unlucky."
Godzilla looked at Brother Wolf and said, "It's all your fault."
Li Du looked over in surprise and asked, "Hey, what happened?"
"I bet that idiot must have kicked the crayfish stew pot," said Lu Guan. "Brother Wolf hid a poisonous snake under it, and he was bitten by that poisonous snake."
Li Du frowned and said, "It won't kill him, will it?"
Blanchett had cheated him of $550,000, which was abominable, but not worthy of death. Besides, he had paid back and made a lot of black opals from it.
Brother Wolf said, "It was a close call. Ah Meow caught a red-bellied black snake."
The red-bellied black snake was venomous, but it was not among the top 20 venomous snakes in Australia.
Its venom can cause blood clotting disorders and damage muscles and nerves, but it is rarely fatal. According to the literature, there has been no confirmed case of a red-bellied black snake biting a person in Australia.
Brother Wolf continued to explain, "After I saw this snake, I extracted the poison from it. The speed of secretion of the red-bellied black snake venom is slow, so it will at most cause severe pain to Blanchett's bitten limbs. "
As long as his life was not in danger, Li Du was happy to see Blanchett get taught a lesson.
Not only him, but the others were also happy to see such a scene.
That evening, Li Du woke up and went out for dinner. At the restaurant, he met a few miners. When they saw him, they applauded and said, "Buddy, you're amazing!"
"What happened?"
"Blanchett, that cunning bastard, has always cheated others. This is the first time he has been cheated so badly. Millions? Haha, he spent millions to buy the sh * t mine from you?" The miner laughed.
A miner said, "But Li Du did mine a lot of gems, so how could the number 115 mine be a sh * t mine?"
This was what everyone was puzzled about, and it was also what Blanchett was fooled by.
If it had been another mine owner or miner who used such a trick against Blanchett, Blanchett would not have been easily fooled and would have doubted the origin of the gems.
However, Li Du was different. He had just arrived in Lightning Ridge and was unfamiliar with the place. The gems he dug could only have been produced in the number 115 mine.
Faced with the miner's doubts, Li Du laughed and said, "Let's put it this way. I have an identity that you don't know. I am a major shareholder of the Harry Winston group!"
The Harry Winston group, the world's top gemstone manufacturing luxury group, had recently become famous in the global luxury industry.
After more than half a year, the Harry Winston group had perfectly cut the fire opals provided by Li Du and released pre-sale pictures of the products.
These pre-sale pictures were design drawings, and the finished products were displayed like this.
A large number of luxury fire opals would be launched, which attracted the attention of many upper-class people.
Hearing this, the miners were shocked, and then looked at Li Du with envy and awe.
They did not know the difficulties encountered by the Harry Winston group and that the gem group had almost been bought at a low price. In their impression, Harry Winston was the world's top luxury group.
As a major shareholder, Li Du's net worth must be very high. No wonder he could easily take out $550,000 to buy a sh * t mine!
"In addition, I can tell you another piece of news. Blanchett was bitten by a red-bellied black snake, which was also a trap set by my men," he added.
Saying this might attract hatred and cause unnecessary conflict for himself, but it could also serve as a warning to others who had ill intentions toward him.
This was how it was in Australia. The people of this country were very barbaric and rough. To gain respect here, you had to show your harder fists and sharper teeth.
Sure enough, after he said this, the miners looked at him with even more awe.
Similarly, Li Du had offended Blanchett even more.
The miners spread the news that Blanchett was furious when he learned that it was all a trap set by Li Du. He broke several things in the hospital, and eventually the nurse had to give him a shot of tranquilizer.
This news caused many people in the town to rejoice in the misfortune of others.
Because he had successfully plotted against Blanchett, many people admired Li Du very much. To be able to make money from Blanchett while making him suffer so much and suffer so much, Li Du was really amazing.
The next day, a mine owner invited Li Du to visit his house, but Li Du did not go. He had a guest to receive, Cole, the president of the Harry Winston group.
When he had dug up the gems, he had asked Sophie to call Cole and ask if the Harry Winston group was interested in buying them.
This was his own group, and selling it to his own people could make money from both sides. He could make a profit when he sold it, and he could also make a profit from dividends when the finished product was sold.
Li Du had guessed that Cole would be interested, but he had not expected the man to come in person. He had thought that Cole would arrange for someone to come.
Cole came in a helicopter, which landed in the town's largest parking lot, and Li Du went to pick him up.
Seeing Li Du, Cole stretched out his hand as soon as he got off the plane and smiled warmly. "Hi, Li, good man. It's been a long time since we last met."
This conversation was in Chinese. Cole had a strong learning ability and was very good at communicating.
Unfortunately, he did not understand Chinese well enough. It was mainly used to describe the longing between lovers. Of course, it could also be used to describe the longing between good teachers and helpful friends, but the latter was rarely used in modern society.
