Wang Zhongshi saw that Li Du was interested and said, "If you are interested, you can contact me. I will take you around Congo and Zambia."
Cao Fan added, "Brother Li, if you really want to go to Congo, you'd better contact Old Wang. He still has some power there."
Wang Zhongshi smiled and said, "Yes, although I am not as powerful as Er Gou in San Francisco and California, I can cover the Congo."
"Er Gou's power is not limited to California," someone said. "They can go all over the West Coast."
Cao Fan waved his hand and said, "Don't talk nonsense. People will misunderstand and think that I am in the underworld now. Our Cao family has long been clean. I am now a real gold-collar worker."
Listening to these people, Li Du quickly understood that Cao Fan's background was not ordinary. The Cao family should be quite powerful in the United States.
The topic turned to Cao Fan and finally returned to Africa.
Everyone was interested in life and work in Africa. Although the continent was poor, it was full of opportunities. If one was brave and willing to go and survive, they would definitely be able to do well.
Wang Zhongshi was an expert in this area, so he introduced it to everyone.
He worked in Congo, but also went to Zambia. The two countries were on the same copper belt, and because of the copper mine, the indigenous people of the two countries often had conflicts.
"Similar to the copper mine, there are also diamond mines across the two countries, but the situation in the two countries is different. Zambia's reserves are larger than Congo's, but the mines there are deeper.
"Many of the diamond mines in Congo are open-air and can be mined by the people, and the quantity is very large. Sometimes many diamonds can be fished out from a river."
Listening to Wang Zhongshi's introduction, a girl with long hair and delicate makeup asked, "Brother Wang, what is mining by the people?"
Wang Zhongshi put his arm around her and said with a smile, "Kiss me, kiss me, and I will tell you."
The girl pushed him and said reluctantly, "You are so annoying. I don't want to. You are insulting me."
Someone next to them said, "Hurry up and give him a kiss. Listen to him."
"Just a kiss. Old Wang has a lot of treasures in his stomach. Are you not interested in his treasures?" Someone made a dirty joke.
After a while, the girl kissed Wang Zhongshi.
Wang Zhongshi laughed heartily and said, "Public mining is a special policy created by the Congo government to solve the unemployment problem of the locals."
"The locals can apply for manual mining. As long as they can afford a small processing fee and buy a shovel, they can go to the mines to look for diamonds and dig for copper."
"Can we go too?" the girl asked, snuggling up to him.
Wang Zhongshi cast a sidelong glance at her and said, "Fine, but you have to make sure that you survive. For a beautiful girl like you, if you can survive for more than 24 hours without anyone protecting you, then I lose."
"So scary?"
Wang Zhongshi sighed and said, "Didn't Manager Song say it just now? He's an iron man, and he's the owner of a mine. In the end, he was killed just like that. "
"Have you ever seen something like this?" Li Du asked.
Wang Zhongshi nodded. "Yes, there was a big incident at that time. A girl from the US National Geographic magazine went to do a photo shoot. She was a white girl from a rich family. She was very naive. In the end, she went out after dark and never came back. Guess what happened when we found her?"
"Dead?"
Wang Zhongshi shook his head and said, "It was not a normal death. There were holes all over her body, and it was full of men's things. Her body was torn apart!"
The girls cried out in alarm. Their faces were filled with fear and weakness.
Wang Zhongshi said, "I won't scare you anymore. Let's talk about public mining. Many families in the Congo rely on this to survive. They sell the ore to us and then exchange it for rations in the supermarket."
The Chinese in the Congo had no choice but to unite. He said that not only did the Chinese see the opportunity to make money in Africa, but people from other countries also saw it.
Take the Congo for example. In the past, the mining market here was monopolized by Indians and Lebanese. Later, when the Chinese came, they won the market with guns and fists.
However, once they won the market, it was easy to make money. Wang Zhongshi's current net worth was not low. Li Du guessed from their conversation that he was worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars.
Before coming to Sydney, Li Du felt that he was a rich man, but after coming here, he realized that he was just a frog at the bottom of a well. There were too many rich people in the world, and he had to continue to struggle.
The purpose of Cao Fan bringing him here this time was to get to know each other and develop connections.
Everyone chatted and drank together. Although they were not very familiar with each other, at least they knew each other. If there was a chance to make a fortune together, they could help each other.
After staying in the restaurant until the wee hours of the morning, they were ready to part ways.
Most of the beautiful girls at the party were brought by the men. When the party ended, they would take them away. As for why, everyone knew.
Some of the girls were brought by the girls. Their purpose was to get to know these rich people. Everyone also knew what their purpose was.
Li Du was the first choice of all the girls. He was polite, good-looking, strong, and had a high net worth. It could be seen from everyone's attitude toward him.
Li Du was considered the main character tonight. Everyone was very friendly to him and kept a low profile in front of him.
This made him feel strange. In terms of net worth, he might be worth more than 100 million but less than 200 million. He was considered a super rich man among ordinary people, but not much among these people.
However, everyone's attitude toward him was very unique. They seemed to recognize that he had some great power or represented some conglomerate.
Li Du guessed that Cao Fan's attitude might have triggered other people's guesses. Cao Fan was the most respectful to him, and the others were smart. They probably realized this and thus incorrectly estimated his net worth.
After the party, several girls followed him and asked him some questions about the black opal mine.
These girls should be Chinese students in Australia. They usually traveled around Australia during their holidays. Some of them had been to Lightning Ridge. Their high emotional intelligence and rich experience led to their excellent chatting skills, and they had a good time chatting with Li Du.
At first, Li Du thought that these girls were high-end call girls. After chatting with them, he found that this was not the case. These girls were speculating and looking for opportunities from the rich.
At the beginning of the party, several of the girls quietly expressed their affection for Li Du.
However, Li Du knew that what they were interested in was his money and the resources he had. These reasons, such as' you are very interesting, '' you know so much, 'and' you have a rich life, 'were all nonsense. When he was also an international student, why didn't any beautiful girls say that to him?
Therefore, even though the girls expressed interest in continuing their relationship, Li Du did not respond. He said goodbye to the group and prepared to get in the car to return.
