Treasure Hunt Tycoon

After talking with the lion hunter, Li Du probably got to know him.

This is an exquisite egoist. He is ambitious and intelligent, and knows how to use the environment to maximize his own self-interest.

Obviously, he succeeded. He entered the high society of South Africa and could hire a large number of white people to work for him and serve him.

The lion hunters arranged some activities for them, but these activities were not carried out in the villa.

His original words were: "I don't want other black people to enter here except me, and these activities require my people to participate, so we have to go somewhere else."

This man's attitude towards his compatriots made Li Du hate and fear, so he did not respond enthusiastically, but only dealt with things, saying that they were too tired to participate in the event.

The lion hunter realized this, and rarely followed him to talk about the current situation in South Africa and his views on his fellow citizens.

After a two-day break, Li Du and his party set out to visit his mine before leaving.

There are many diamond mines in South Africa, the most famous of which is the Kimberley diamond pit. This mine has been closed for hundreds of years, but the legend is still circulating in the diamond industry.

This pit was dug in 1866 and closed in 1914. It has been in existence for less than half a century, but through the work of 50,000 miners around the clock, a total of 2722 kg of diamonds were dug.

The Kimberley pit is the world's largest purely hand-mined mine. It has a depth of 1097 meters, an opening diameter of 1.6 kilometers, and covers an area of ​​17 hectares. Now the water storage has become a deep large lake. Application for legacy.

But South Africans hate this place. Think about it, a century and a half ago, how much effort would it take for black people to dig out such a mine by hand and body? How many people have died among them?

There is a saying from the local people in South Africa: If you want to hear the sorrow of the dead, go to the Kimberley Cemetery and wait.

For the suffering South African miners, the Kimberley pit is a dead pit. Instead of getting rich from diamonds, they lost many loved ones because of diamonds.

The lion hunter's mine is located in Limpopo Province, just north of Johannesburg. It is about 800 kilometers away from Johannesburg, which is relatively far.

After a two-day break, they were ready to visit, and the Lion Hunters prepared a helicopter so that it only took three or four hours for them to fly over.

The helicopter is silver and white, and can accommodate two pilots and sixteen passengers. It has a length of 13.4 meters and a height of more than 3 meters and is close to 4 meters.

After seeing it, Dayan said: "Zhi-15, boss, this is made in China."

The lion hunter chuckled his cigar and laughed, "Yay, Chinese planes, Chinese goods are very popular in South Africa, man, haha, this plane is very exciting, come on."

Li Du didn't study helicopters and didn't know much about it. After hearing what Ivan said, he knew that this was the powerful -15 that he spread in China when he was in middle school.

At that time, after reading the information of Zhi-15, Li Du also joked with his classmates and said that he must buy a Zhi-15 in the future to support the country's construction.

Because the news said at the time that Chinese helicopters encountered resistance from overseas markets, the quality of the helicopters was no problem, and the prices were low, but Europe and the United States tried to block their markets.

He doesn't know how the Zhi-15 performs, but from the appearance and cockpit configuration, this is a relatively high-grade helicopter.

Big Ivan introduced to Li Du, saying that the helicopter is very safe. It is developed in accordance with the latest airworthiness standards. Its safety can meet the latest airworthiness standards. It has a five-blade blade ball hinged main propeller system and The fuselage structure with the most stringent certification standards.

These Li Du did not understand. What he could feel is that the helicopter's cabin is very spacious and the decoration is luxurious. Of course, this is a kind of rough luxury, which is almost a patchwork of famous products. It has no connotation.

But judging from the attitude of the lion hunter towards this helicopter, this kind of decoration without meaning is in the middle of it.

Li Du adjusted the curvature of the seat, the wide feet and the lateral space allowed him to sit comfortably on the top. The seat was equipped with a massager. As the helicopter took off, it began to work, slowing down the human body caused by the flight Discomfort.

In addition, the helicopter has large windows, so they don't have to deliberately lie on the window to overlook the city.

The helicopter flew north, and soon left the urban area. As the helicopter climbed, and the coordinates of the high-rise building were no longer on the ground, nothing could be seen.

However, they encountered some hot air balloons on the road. South Africa is a paradise for hot air balloon enthusiasts in the world, and relevant competitions are held every year.

The hot air balloon was flying high, and from a helicopter overlooking, I felt that both sides could touch.

Limpopo is one of the nine provinces in South Africa. It was formerly north of Transvaal, a famous agricultural land.

The province covers an area of ​​123,900 square kilometers and is nicknamed the legendary hometown. Unlike people's understanding of Africa, there is no desert here, but many forests.

The forests of Limpopo Province are called ancient forests, filled with ruins and relics, trouts can be seen everywhere in the waters, and there are countless hot springs and waterfalls.

Since its appearance has not changed in the slightest for more than half a century, it is also called the African Virgin Land.

However, with the discovery of some gold mines here in recent years ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ the local ecological environment has begun to be damaged.

It is not Li Du who excuses white Europeans and Americans. If gold mines are bought by some large European and American companies and big riches, they pay more attention to protecting the environment. If they are developed by Africans, it would be a rough wild.

A few hours later, the helicopter began to descend and the destination was approaching.

Looking down from the window, Li Du first saw some tall baobab trees sparsely set in bushes. There is also a baobab tree on Shagu Island, but it is not as tall as the bread tree here.

The vision extended to the distance, and a mine shrouded in blue-gray sand and dust appeared in his eyes. This is where the mine is located. The sand and dust in the air is the product of crushing the Kimberley rock when the diamond was reclaimed.

Kimberlite is a kind of volcanic lava from the dirty soil of the earth. Nowadays, it has solidified and diamonds are hidden in it. So to get diamonds, you have to mine them.

Li Du has already known about it. About thirty or forty years ago, French prospecting teams discovered diamond veins with amazing reserves in this area. At that time, people realized that diamond veins were hidden here.

However, at that time, South Africa was still in the hands of the British, and black South Africans were pursuing their legal rights, and the dawn of South African autonomy was now over.

Visionary South Africans realize that the British will eventually leave here, and the whites will leave, and this mine will eventually belong to them.

As a result, the black leaders called on the locals to protect the area where the veins are located, confronted the whites and conducted many **** conflicts, and they were not allowed to mine these places.

After painstaking efforts, the diamond mines in Limpopo Province were saved by the local people. Then, South Africa began the history of black governance. These mines were divided up by the rich black people and those in power ...
