Chapter 236

Restless songchai drove through Bo Town and headed for his mining area.

Diamonds in Sierra Leone are somewhat different from those in South Africa. Most of the diamond mines in South Africa are deep mines, while most of Sierra Leone are shallow mines.

In other words, South Africa often needs to dig deep underground to find the ore. for example, the famous Kimberley cave mining area is as deep as 215 meters, while Sierra Leone can easily mine the ore by the river or even by the sea, which is more suitable for some less powerful private miners.

Prospecting instruments can't detect it either. It depends on experience and luck.

Sometimes someone picks up ore somewhere, and then a miner who hears the news will contract the land here to the local government or tribe, let the machinery enter the site and start digging wildly.

Songchai's mine is this kind of small mine, which is the second of all mines.

Songchai mining area is located about 30 kilometers south of Bo Town. It is inaccessible. There is a tribe called momule village five kilometers away. In addition, it is difficult to find people.

It was already dusk when I returned to the mining area.

"Boss!" a black man with a hunchback, dressed in an old green military uniform and carrying an AK47 with rusty sleeves, ran towards the pickup truck. He was panting and out of breath because he ran too fast.

"Bruce, what's the panic?" Song guess looked like a boss at the lower end of his hand. He turned his head to Qin Fei and Kun guess and said, "this is one of my bodyguards, Bruce. Now he is my security captain and is responsible for the safety work in the mine."

"Mr. William is waiting for you in the room." Bruce glanced at Qin Fei and Kun guess, didn't say hello, but said directly to song guess.

"William?" the dignity on Somchai's face dissipated in an instant. He stretched out his head and looked. Sure enough, there was an old-fashioned Land Rover off-road planning parked on the edge of the nearby grass.

He knows the car. It's William's.

Frowning, Somchai waved to Bruce impatiently and said, "OK, you go back to the mine first and watch them. Don't let those slackers steal my diamonds."

"Mr. Somchai..." Bruce wondered, "after you left today, you didn't start work."

"No work!" Somchai almost jumped up from the driver's position, quickly opened the door and got out of the car and shouted at Bruce, "why not start work! Do you know how much I will lose if I delay a day?"

Bruce looked like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water and said, "you have owed a month's salary. The workers said that if you don't pay today, they won't start work and have to dismantle the equipment to pay off the debt..."

"Shit!" Song guessed, "how did you become the security captain? This little thing is not fair. I said, I just have a poor capital turnover for the time being, and I will pay off their wages soon..."

Bruce shrugged. "I haven't been paid for a month. You still owe me $600. I can't get the money and I won't start work."

Somchai was stunned. He immediately realized that not only the workers had quit, but also his bodyguards were afraid that the rabbits would not scatter the eagles. Moreover, since William came, he must have come to collect the rent instead of talking about the past.

William of the sun never sets empire was the original owner of the mine. Because he didn't find many diamonds here, he didn't intend to stay here and waste his money. Just when songchai was looking for a mine, he sold the mine to songchai cheaply in the form of lease, with a monthly rent of $1000.

Somchai saw the place and thought it should be possible to dig diamonds here. William's failure doesn't mean he can't. It's just a matter of luck.

As a result, the next thing proved that not only William's luck was wrong, but also Somchai's own luck.

After half a year, song Chai not only posted all his money, but also dug up no more than 20 raw stones in the mine. They were all pitifully small garbage mines. Soon he couldn't get enough money and couldn't support it.

So when Kun guessed to find him, the guy suddenly felt he saw the Savior.

After all, Kun guess is a famous black sheep. His sister Zhang Lan is not generally rich. Song guess is quite clear, but there is no connection between them over the years. Song guess didn't want to borrow money from Zhang Lan's sister and brother.

Since he was the savior to the door, songchai certainly couldn't miss it. After some exaggerated boasting, Kun Chai, who was eager to escape and run away, promised to find him in Africa and invest in his diamond mine.

Songchai immediately returned to the car and said to Kun, "cousin, give me all your money first. I'm in urgent need."

"What's the matter?" Kun guessed that something was wrong. "Is something wrong?"

Song Chai shook his head like a rattle: "it's all right. It's just that I'm short of funds. I need your investment, otherwise I can't open this mine."

After hearing this, Kun guess had to take out the money and hand it to song guess: "this is 12000 dollars. Here you are. I'll be one of the bosses of this mine from now on."

Songchai grabbed the pile of money, splashed with saliva, clicked, put it in his hand, smiled and said, "yes, you now own 30% of the equity of this mine! Cousin, you are already one of the bosses here!"

However, Somchai didn't intend to celebrate anything for his new partner at all. He proudly raised a pile of dollars in Bruce's hand: "see? You bastards deserve to be a bodyguard all your life!"

After that, he walked proudly with the money to the temporary house built in containers in the distance. Bruce seemed to understand that his boss's luck had changed today and his salary might have been settled, so he hurried to go with his gun on his back.

Qin Fei and Kun guess got out of the car and stood next to the pickup and looked around.

This is a desolate place. Not far from the right is a jungle. On the left is a small river several meters wide, winding towards the front. From a distance, you can see an old excavator and a bulldozer parked on the beach in the distance. Twenty or thirty people sit beside the machine.

"It's really desolate..." Kun guessed and shook his head. "It's more desolate than my country..."

Qin Fei thought it was a good place. When he saw the jungle, he suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. He was familiar with it and made his blood boil. He couldn't tell the reason.

As soon as they reached the container house, they saw an Englishman with a big nose coming out, followed by Somchai nodding.

"Mr. William, take your time. Come and sit down when you are free."

"Ah, I won't come to this damn place until I'm fine!" William looked disgusted. He really had an unspeakable dislike for it. It cost him at least 100000 dollars of investment here. Fortunately, he finally found songchai.

"If you pay the rent on time, I won't come to you. I'm not stingy. You know that the territory here belongs to the chief of the momule tribe. I also have to pay fees to him and development funds to the government..."

"Yes, you are right." Somchai is flattering. Although William is not a big miner, he still has full weight in front of Somchai.

"Somchai, have you heard recently?"

"What's up?"

"The revolutionary people's front of Coruscant seems to be fighting with the government forces again..." William said with a sad face: "damn Africans, can't they live in peace?"

Then he jumped on the Land Rover, his driver started the vehicle and soon disappeared at the end of the dirt road in the distance.

"Fighting?" songchai looked blankly and stood for a long time. Suddenly, he cursed to himself: "shit!"
