Although this 80% new off-road vehicle has good performance and the air conditioner is very cool, it is the hottest time in South Africa at this time. The car is driving on the asphalt road, and the air in front of the window seems to be distorted. People sitting in the car
It's like a steamer inside.
The severe cold and heat had little effect on Ye Tian, but he was a little uncomfortable staying in such a stuffy space. Ever since he left the hotel and got into the car, he had been closing the pores in his body and using his inner breath to circulate in his body.
"Mr. Zhao, we'll be there soon. That's the building in front of us."
Unlike Ye Tian, Hua Jun, who has lived in South Africa since he was a child, is very adaptable to this kind of weather. For him, riding an off-road vehicle is much better than that kind of bus. The odor emitted by people sweating is too much.
Far more unbearable than the hot weather.
"It's really heavily guarded!"
Ye Tian's eyesight was very good. He was still about a kilometer away from the gold mine. He saw four guards with live weapons and nuclear weapons standing at the gate of the gold mine. In addition, the high surrounding walls all had their power grids pulled. Every time
There are cameras installed at every corner, so there are almost no blind spots.
"Of course, although the Mengsag gold mine has not been mined for a long time, it is still considered a relatively large gold mine in Cape Town."
After hearing Ye Tian's words, Hua Jun smiled and said: "We Chinese have shares in this gold mine, otherwise we would not even think about going in to visit. Mr. Zhao, remember my words, do not take pictures after entering, otherwise your
The camera will be confiscated."
"I know, I didn't bring a camera at all."
Ye Tian nodded, raised his hand and looked at the watch. The hour hand pointed to ten o'clock in the morning. It was less than two hours before departure from the hotel. The Meng Sage Gold Mine was actually not very far from Cape Town. Between Huajun and the people inside
After contacting people and going through a rigorous inspection, we were able to drive the off-road vehicle into the courtyard. As soon as the vehicle stabilized, a middle-aged man in his forties walked out of the two-story building in front of the courtyard.
, laughed and cursed from afar: "You brat, do you think I'm easy to talk to? You give me problems every time!"
"This guy looks pretty good."
Ye Tian raised his head and took a look at the man's face. The middle-aged man's face was slightly rounded, his earlobes were big, and he smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. However, when he spoke, his small eyes shone, showing that this was not the case.
An easy person.
"Mr. Wu, how can we do that? Among us Chinese in South Africa, there are few people who can do better than you. Only with you can we show the charm of the Chinese overseas!"
To be a tour guide, you just have to open your mouth. Although Hua Jun is not old, he is very good at saying compliments. These few words were very useful to the visitor. He narrowed his eyes and smiled and said: "You haven't improved your skills yet."
, but this mouth is getting sweeter and sweeter, don’t leave at noon, I bought a crocodile and a peacock egg yesterday, let’s have a few drinks together!”
"Well, Mr. Wu, I can take guests with me today."
Hua Jun was a little embarrassed when he heard this and glanced at Ye Tian secretly. Crocodiles are common in South Africa. You can buy a small crocodile for more than 100 yuan, but there are not many peacock eggs. The taste is very delicious. Hua Jun is a little surprised.
Tempted.
"It's okay, we are all from my hometown, why are you so polite?"
Mr. Wu laughed heartily, looked at Ye Tian and said, "Brother, are you from that place? Let's have a few drinks together at noon. Damn the weather. If you don't drink some cold beer, you will die."
Ye Tianneng could tell that the person in front of him was sincerely inviting him, so he nodded and said, "I am from Jiangsu, Mr. Wu, so please excuse me!"
"Okay, cool off, Hua Jun told me that you want to go to the mine to have a look, right? I have the final say on this matter, and I will make arrangements for you later!"
"Sit inside for a while. We have to wait half an hour for the next batch of people to go down to the mine. You can go down with them then."
Mr. Wu smiled and patted Ye Tian on the shoulder, turned around and entered the room. After staying outside for a while, the white shirt he was wearing was completely soaked with sweat.
Walking behind, Ye Tian asked Hua Jun softly: "Hua Jun, what is the origin of this Mr. Wu?"
"Hey, Brother Zhao, Mr. Wu is not an ordinary person. He can make all the difference in South Africa."
After hearing what Ye Tian said, Hua Jun raised his thumb and whispered: "Mr. Wu was very poor when he came to South Africa. He first worked in another gold mine..."
It turns out that Mr. Wu’s name is Wu Delin and he is from Fujian.
Since hundreds of years ago, along the coast of Fujian, there has been a custom of traveling across the ocean to seek a living. In some cities, almost every household has relatives overseas, and many young people find ways to go abroad to pan for gold in their teens.
In the early 1980s, Wu Delin followed a boatload of people to sneak into the United States, but something happened in the middle and finally pulled the boatload of people to South Africa. At that time, South Africa's economy was very backward, and almost all large gold mines were
In the hands of white people.
At that time, Wu Delin joined more than 20 people to work in a gold mine in Cape Town. Unlike others who made money and sent it home, Wu Delin used all the money he earned to treat guests to dinner. Because of his generous nature,
He was generous and quickly made friends with many low-level black workers and integrated into local life in South Africa.
In that gold mine, Wu Delin worked for eight full years and established a very high prestige among the workers. From this, he rose from a worker in the mine to a middle-level manager of the gold mine. This was a gold mine controlled by white South Africans at the time.
It is still unique in the mining industry.
By the late 1980s, South Africa was increasingly dissatisfied with the white people who still held a monopoly in the country, which also led to a series of social unrest. Under pressure, the British consortium had to sell off some mineral resources.
Wu Delin, who had worked in the gold mine for eight years, was tempted. Although he had no assets, his status in the Chinese community in South Africa was very high. After some fundraising, he actually raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and bought two
A very humble gold mine.
However, these British people also have evil intentions. Many of the gold mine resources they sold are traps. The so-called reserve reports are not true. Most of the gold mines are waste mines or low-quality mineral deposits. The reserves and
The amounts that can be mined are not equal at all.
However, the surveying technology at that time was limited, and even the British could not guarantee that the gold mines were all waste mines. It was like gambling on stones. Before mining, no one could predict whether it would be a rich ore or a waste mine.
Wu Delin's luck is really very good. The first gold mine he mined produced very high-quality gold, and he also got the first pot of gold in his life.
In 1994, Mandela became the first black president of South Africa. From then on, black people truly became the masters of the land of South Africa, and various mineral resources were gradually opened to the world.
Wu Delin was the one who won the Mengsage Gold Mine at that time. At that time, this humble gold mine was not favored by everyone, but who knew that the Mengsage Gold Mine was so rich in reserves that it could be ranked among the top ten gold mines in South Africa.
Location, it has been mined for more than ten years now, but only a small part has been produced.
Relying on this gold mine, Wu Delin accumulated an astonishing wealth, but he still likes to mingle with the workers as before. This is why he still stays in the mine when the weather is so hot that it reaches more than 40 degrees.
"Those who can achieve great things must have qualities that ordinary people cannot match!"
After listening to Hua Jun's explanation, Ye Tian was really impressed by Wu Delin. In just twenty years, he was able to build such a large industry with his bare hands. The effort and bitterness required were far beyond what anyone could imagine.
When Wu Delin entered the office, he was busy with some trivial matters. After finishing his work, he raised his head and said with a smile: "Xiao Zhao, don't listen to this guy Hua Jun's nonsense. What kind of mining tycoon is he? I'm just a country bumpkin, and I can't speak English now."
.”
"Mr. Wu is so humble. Your qualities are worth learning from."
Ye Tian shook his head, looked at Wu Delin, frowned suddenly, and said, "Mr. Wu is not feeling well lately, right?"
Ye Tian discovered that there were some faintly exposed veins between Wu Delin's eyebrows and cheekbones, which was a sign of excessive anger.
"Xiao Zhao is a doctor?" Wu Delin was stunned for a moment, looked at Ye Tian and said: "I haven't been in good health recently. I always want to get angry, but I can't find out the reason. I'm thinking of going for a check-up in a few days.
Just a moment."
"Mr. Wu, is your office building newly built?" Ye Tian did not answer Wu Delin's words, but looked around.
Wu Delin nodded and said: "Yes, the weather here is too hot. I added an extra layer and installed air conditioning so that the workers can be more comfortable."
"Mr. Wu, please put up a wall at the entrance of the mine. The air coming from the underground is not good and will make people sick!"
Ye Tian raised his head and glanced out the window, and suddenly understood in his heart. There may not be spiritual veins underground in this gold mine, but the gold is also mixed with a trace of metal. The more gold gathers, the more golden aura will naturally arise.
.
Wu Delin's office is on the first floor, facing the entrance of the mine, so it has suffered the greatest erosion. If it takes longer, his liver will suffer irreparable damage, which may last up to ten years.
life span.
The wall Ye Tian mentioned is actually a Feng Shui wall, which can block the Jin Rui Qi overflowing from the mine and change the Feng Shui of the office.
"Oh? Is there such a thing? I'll have someone build a wall at the entrance tomorrow."
Wu Delin once worked digging gold ore under the mine. He knew that people who worked in the mine all year round would not live long. Scientific explanations showed that it was caused by radiation in the ore, so he did not believe Ye Tian's words.
