Treasure Hunt Tycoon

With more people, the four mothers and daughters were busy.

Back to mountains and mountains to water, there are big rivers here, and the best sellers are river fish and shrimp.

There are several large white fish stewed in the pot, and grilled river fish are placed on the oven. This fish has palm length and small size, but the meat is very fat, and the skin of the fish will soon become brown.

Li Du was sitting on the edge of the river, and he glanced at the river.

The crystal clear water was tumbling, and some large and small flat-bottomed boats waved up and down the river. At this time, it was lunch time, and some boats docked at the pier.

There are many simple sheds on both sides of the river. A few nets support a black net to shield the sun. Below are dark-skinned locals joking with tea pots.

Li Du came to Honshavadi for the first time and was curious about everything, so he couldn't help looking around.

Seeing this, the locals in a nearby shed became uncomfortable, and several youths shouted at him.

Gordawi hurriedly stood up, showing a kind smile to the young people, not knowing what to say.

Big Marklov said: "The guys asked you what to see, and the tour guide told them that we are foreigners. The first time I came here, I didn't mean anything, just to see the scenery."

Li Du didn't want to find anything. He listened to him and then looked away, then smiled disdainfully: "This local is kind of overbearing."

Little Marklov spit out, "I don't think they are afraid of death!"

Big Mark Love immediately glanced at him: "Don't mess around here, stupid, we are now on the front line, no logistics, no supplies, no support, nothing, be honest."

Gordonville calmed down the person who was opposite and sat down, saying, "They are local gold diggers, and they all carry gold, so they don't like anyone to watch them, which will make them misunderstand."

Li Du suddenly realized that this was the case, and there was still sand in the river.

The grilled fish is prepared first. These fish are skewered with bamboo sticks. When eating, they are the same as the bones of the pork belly.

The fish is delicate and delicious. There is no earthy smell of freshwater fish, but it has a sweet flavor. With seasonings such as cumin and paprika, it is delicious for everyone.

Consumption in these places is very low. A party spent less than 200,000 Hong Kong dollars. According to the currency exchange ratio, one yuan can be exchanged for 200 Hong Kong dollars, which means that the average person spends only 50 yuan.

You know, they are all big guys, and each one has a terrible amount of food. If he stays in the United States for such a meal, Li Du estimates that each person will spend more than fifty dollars.

Before leaving, Li Du gave the proprietress a little money and directly gave her a hundred dollars.

After seeing this money, the boss lady laughed and opened the flower. Some people here sometimes use gold to trade gold, so they know the value of the dollar.

This dollar was worth more than 100,000 Hong Kong dollars. The owner's wife took it close, and went to take some grilled fish and wrap it with oily paper, and stuffed it to Li Du, motioning them to eat on the road.

The bumps along the way finally made the road better, and the green hills and rivers on the side of the road disappeared, replaced by pits and dug hills.

The Pagan area is here!

Li Du looked out and had to marvel at the powerful destructive power of human beings. A stone mountain was mined in half, as if some giant **** was angry here, and reached out to tear a mountain in half.

Seeing his expression of surprise, Gordonville pointed to the potholes in the distance and said, "There used to be a mountain there. No, there used to be a lot of mountains over there, but sir, it's gone now. ! "

The car continued on, and Li Du saw some convoys starting to appear on the ground.

The road conditions here are better, because many heavy trucks are driving on it, and some heavy machinery such as excavators pass through. If the road conditions are not good enough, the ore cannot be dug out or transported.

The trucks coming out of the mine are heavy trucks with a loading capacity of tens of tons. The ore on these cars is full of dangs. At a glance, it is known that they are seriously overloaded.

The driver estimated it and looked back: "There must be hundreds of tons of stuff."

The more you walked, the more lively, villages and pedestrians appeared along the road.

The villages here are small and shabby, that is, thatched houses and earthen houses only found in China in the 1950s and 1960s. It is rainy in Hongshawadi. Li Du feels that a torrential rain can wash them down.

The people in the village are also very poor. The weather is still hot. Many people do n’t wear tops, so they wear a pair of shorts. The children run barefoot and bare buttocks. A broken football is enough for more than a dozen children to compete.

Some people are enjoying the shade in the shade. Except for the elderly and children, the people under the tree are disabled and lack legs and arms.

Li Du was surprised: "What's going on? Isn't Pagan a very rich place?"

Gordonville smiled with a mockery on his face and said, "Yeah, very wealthy. Take our car for example. I'm afraid the boss has ten million dollars. Then the two of us would have an average of five million dollars ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ We are all rich! "

Li Du frowned: "I understand what you mean, I know there are many rich merchants and rich mine owners here, but do the miners have no money? Are the miners' salaries not low?"

Goldinway still laughed sarcastically, he said: "Not low? It's not low in publicity, in fact, there is not much money. Moreover, these bosses always have a way to earn your money back, eat, drink, gamble and spend too much here La!"

After hearing this, Li Du shook his head, and Gordonville was very clever. He guessed what he thought from his expression.

He said, "Boss, you must think that the people here are upset, right?"

Before waiting for Li Du to answer, he sneered: "People here have not received your education, and their self-control is not as good as you. The local environment is like this, and there are many temptations. When you leave the mine exhausted every day When you do n’t know if you will be destroyed by the mine disaster tomorrow, will you not want to spend money? "

"In short, **** is empty, the devil is on earth!"

Li Du said, "You are right, it seems that the resource curse theory is also applicable in the Pagan area."

Gordon's turn didn't understand this time, and he blinked dumbly: "What curse? Who cursed here?"

Li Du laughed: "It's not who cursed here, but the" resource curse theory ", that is, the countries and regions with more scarce resources are likely to become poorer."

The situation in the Pagan region is the same as in Africa's diamond-rich regions. The indigenous peoples in these regions have not been rich because of resources. Instead, they have suffered and become poorer because of these resources.

As the car moved between the villages, Li Du saw more and more things, and became more and more shocked.

Just like the Los Angeles metropolitan area, a large living area is built around the small place of Pagan.
