Super Smuggling System
Page 442
Hearing Abel's firm answer, Li Mu smiled and said, "Are you so sure of my judgment?"
"Abel believes in what you say, sir." Abel said without hesitation, even though he looked at the desolation and horror around him.
"Stop flattering."
Li Mu saw that the surrounding environment was in a pristine state, and there was no mining at all. This proved that the gold-uranium conglomerate deposit in the Witwatersrand on the upper plateau of the Waal River, as recorded in the history of the plane, was to be It was not discovered until 1866, and it is still unmined and undiscovered.
In this way, Li Mu felt relieved, at least he didn't have to cause an unnecessary bloody conflict for this gold mine.
According to the historical records of the Rand Gold Mine in this plane, since those gold diggers discovered the Rand Gold Mine in 1866, this gold mine has been mined for more than 130 years, and the mined gold is as high as 3.5 tons, and the unmined gold is also Up to 1.8 tons.
Moreover, according to statistics from relevant departments, the Rand Gold Mine in South Africa alone accounts for more than half of the world's total gold reserves. You must know that this does not account for South Africa's gold reserves, but accounts for more than half of the world's total gold reserves.
In other words, if Li Mu owns this gold mine, he will be holding half of the world's gold reserves in his hands.
If he uses the system's "temporary rental space service" to bring the Rand Gold Mine to his own plane for resettlement, then he can not only become the largest gold mine owner in this plane, but also indirectly increase the world's total gold reserves in this plane. It has increased by more than one-half.
Faced with such a piece of fat that is not only plump but also constantly emitting oil, can Li Mu ignore it?
Obviously not.
Even if the third smuggling plane did not discover this gold mine in advance and mine it as recorded in the original plane, he would use violent means to take it into his pocket.
You know, the maximum output of this gold mine in a single year is as high as [-] tons. Besides, the annual output is no less than [-] tons, between [-] and [-] tons.
It is a veritable rich mine with high storage capacity and high output.
Facing such a mine, for Li Mu, it is a must-have for him. On this plane, he can put away his greed, but when it comes to the smuggling plane, there is no need to violate the rules of the plane. Things can bind his greedy heart.
In other words, in the smuggling plane, as long as it is what he likes, no matter who owns it, he will find a way to get it, even if there is a bloody slaughter for it.
Just like he took away the Old Summer Palace, no matter when he had this thought or when he took it away, he didn't ask Xianfeng's opinion, and took it away directly.
Taking another look at the primitive environment around the Rand Gold Mine, Li Mu took the reins from Steve, got on his horse, and said to everyone, "Let's go, let's go back."
"Ah, sir, are you leaving now? Are you no longer looking for treasure?"
Abel looked at Li Mu on the horse in amazement, and then got on the horse, wondering in his heart, didn't he come here to hunt for treasure?It didn't dig a hole either.
Just come here to have a look, get off your horse, and you're done looking?
Li Mu patted his ass and said, "The search is over. We are now looking for the local British governor. I have taken a fancy to the land around here. I will buy it first, and then we will search slowly."
Then, the five left the highlands above the Vaal River, within the range of the Rand Gold Mine.
Chapter 4 The Kimberley Diamond Mine
Most of the land in the United States was actually not obtained through war, but was bought with money.Huo Ran???? Wen?. ranen`
Five dollars can buy one kilometer of land from indigenous people in Mexico and other surrounding countries. One can imagine how cheap the land was at that time.
When 50 pounds was placed on the desk of the British Governor in South Africa, Li Mu successfully obtained the certificate of ownership of the entire upper reaches of the Vaal River.
With this certificate, from now on, the highlands in the upper reaches of the Waal River will be owned by Li Mu personally and become his private property. Even the local black people will become his personal belongings under a paper certificate.
..........
After turning the land near the Rand Gold Mine into private property, temporarily preventing outsiders from prying eyes, Li Mu is ready to move to other parts of South Africa with the certificate of ownership of the highlands in the upper reaches of the Vaal River.
A month later.
The five of Li Mu came to the Orange River in South Africa, the boundary of Cape Province on the original plane.
The reason why I chose to come here is because the Cape Province has the reputation of the capital of diamonds in this plane.
handed down.
One day in the summer of 1866, a bored boy found a 21.25-carat diamond at Decker Farm on the banks of the Orange River.
The diamond was later cut into a 10.73-carat oval diamond, originally named "O'Reilly."
When this diamond was unveiled at the Universal Exposition held in Paris in 1889, it had been named "Eureka" by Yi.
Li Mu doesn't know if this legend is true, but he knows that there is a famous diamond mine here, and it is also the location of the largest artificially dug diamond pit in the world, the Kimberley Diamond Crater.
Moreover, the largest diamond group in this plane, the founder of De Beers, the British Cecil Rhodes relied on this diamond mine to establish the world's largest diamond family.
According to the information that Li Mu saw in this plane, in the 19s, the British Cecil Rhodes bought the nearby farmland from the local farmer De Beers brothers for only 70 pounds.
Then the famous Kimberley Crater of Diamonds was discovered, and in 1888 Rhodes founded De Beers.
De Beers has been the world's largest diamond mining and sales company since the establishment of De Beers by the British Rhodes, enjoying the privilege of monopolizing diamond procurement and pricing.
Once, De Beers Group once controlled 90% of the global rough diamond market.
This is also the reason why Liu Yue wanted to enter the rough diamond market but hit a wall, because the rough diamond market in this plane has already been monopolized by the De Beers Group, and it is impossible for others to enter.
When Li Mu came here, he fell in love with the Kimberley Diamond Crater that originally belonged to the British Rhodes, and he also wanted to solve Liu Yue's problem by the way.
Forget it, every time Liu Yue knew that he was in South Africa, she would ask him if he had any news about the raw diamond mine.
......
"Sir, we have the De Beers brothers, and they have agreed to sell all their farmland for five thousand pounds."
Abel, who took Arnold in charge of finding someone, handed over the contract purchased from the De Beers brothers to Li Mu.
Li Mu took the contract, glanced at it, and handed it to Natasha, who was waiting beside him, to put it away, and then asked Abel, "Abel, have you found Delk Farm?"
There is no way, Li Mu can never forget the oval diamond that has been polished to more than ten carats.
Now that you have come here, you can't just take the contract to buy the farmland and leave, but be indifferent to the diamond that is said to have been picked up by the little boy and stop looking for it.
This is not Li Mu's character. Although it is still a few years away from 1866, the Decker Farm at this time is different in terms of geology and environment from a few years later.
But it doesn't matter, Li Mu has a cheating tool, he just needs to spend some smuggled coins and let the system check that Derk farm.
Anyway, he didn't want to miss the big diamond.
"I found you, sir. The De Beers farm is not far from the farmland of the De Beers brothers." Abel said, turning around and pointing to a place not far away.
When he signed the contract with the De Beers brothers just now, he inquired about the location of the Decker farm by the way.
Li Mu followed Abel's guidance, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and have a look, by the way, is there anyone in that farm?"
"Mr. Some, why is there no one on the farm?" Abel said in cold sweat. Since it is a farm, there will be people there. This is common sense.
"Uh....."
