Treasure Hunt Tycoon

The result was tragic. The miner was unmarried all his life. He did not dig up much black opal, did not get rich, and no woman chose to marry him.

But the miner of Lightning Ridge admired his determination and perseverance, and called him 'Single Prince'. After all, he built a real castle.

The kitchen is close to the hall, and the boss is very talkative and keeps telling them what happened in the town.

Everyone who came to mine in Lightning Ridge at that time has a story, especially in the years after the end of World War II.

Former British spies, former SS members of the Nazis, members of the British royal family, old stars, and some important members of the bankrupt government.

"What I said is true. If you can meet some old miners who are more than a few years old, you can ask them to get evidence. I think they would like to tell you those thrilling years."

The lame boss promised them solemnly, and it is estimated that he felt a little exaggerated, Li Du and others would not believe it.

Li Du believes what the boss said, and there is evidence for many things he said.

The kebabs kept coming and they started eating.

Beyond expectations, the steaks tasted good. The fragrant beef was combined with delicious oysters, seasoned purely with salt and black pepper, keeping the original meaty flavor and seafood delicious. Li Du and others praised it.

Sucking oil and water on his fingers, Li Du asked, "Boss, what is the output of gems in town now?"

Hearing this, the boss responded quickly and asked, "Aren't you here for tourism, do you want to come to mine to find Black Opal?"

Li Dudao: "Both have it. Wouldn't it be better if you could find a good gem mine?"

The lame boss laughed. He said, "You think of things too simple, and you find a good gem mine by the way? Do you think black opal is as common as cattle?"

He shook his head and pointed at his leg and continued: "Do you know how it was hurt?"

Li Du guessed the reason and said, "Is it because of mining? Was it hurt by the ore?"

The lame boss shook his head again and said, "No, I found a good gem, and then encountered a robbery. This was injured by a car!"

Li Du was surprised: "The criminal is so arrogant?"

The lame boss still shook his head. He said: "Actually, it is not a criminal. It is a guy of mine. He dug for two years and found nothing, and finally decided to rob me."

Li Du didn't speak anymore, the reality the boss spoke was cruel enough.

"I know Richard, so I didn't sue him. I know he's a good guy. He was forced to do so by reality." The boss said.

Then, the boss suddenly became excited and said, "Think, man, you have a wife and children and a hard job but enough income to support the family."

"But you decided to resign, because this job can't let your wife buy Dior and LV, your child can't go to Disney, and you can't buy a Mercedes."

"After you resigned, you came to the Lightning Ridge, full of hope, thinking that you are the son of a godsend, with good luck, you will mine millions of gems here."

"What happened? You worked for a month without gain, and you became scarce at hand. You worked for six months without gain, your wife had no money to buy clothes, and your child had no money to go to school. You worked for a year, no gain, your wife divorced, took Leaving the child. "

"Who wouldn't despair? At this time, the unlucky guy like you got a gem, would you be crazy?"

Looking at the boss's grief, Li Du was startled, and hurriedly handed him a glass of beer: "Calm, old man, calm down."

After drinking beer, the boss stepped out of his emotions.

He said, "Sorry, I lost my mind just now."

Li Du patted him on the shoulder and said, "I understand. It seems that reclaiming gemstones is not a good job."

"It's terrible, it's just terrible," said the boss. "I sold the black opal I dug and stopped dreaming and opened the restaurant honestly."

Sophie said: "To be honest, your cooking is really good and the steak is delicious."

The lame boss laughed: "Yes, I have confidence in this. Actually, my grandpa and father were chefs. They taught me carefully. Unfortunately, I didn't learn it seriously."

Later, another guest arrived, and Li Du and they checked out and left.

Although the boss warned them, Li Du still decided to enter the industry. He has the helper of Little Flying Bugs and has no financial pressure. It is different from other miners.

Driving the next day, Li Du saw the single prince's castle.

This is a small castle, built very rough, using primitive brown-red ore, which looks good from a distance, but it is not beautiful when viewed from a close distance.

Considering that it was built by a miner alone, it is amazing enough.

Small but complete. This castle has a main fort, a fort, a tower, a chapel, a dungeon and a basement, etc. ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ The single prince finally left the Lightning Ridge. He gave the castle to the town and set up the town. Into a tourism project, it costs five dollars to enter the tour, and you can take photos.

Li Du, they turned around here, then drove out of the town center and entered the mine.

Opal mining at Lightning Ridge is not the same as in a national park. Here you are digging for ore. You have to buy a piece of land and then use a machine to dig a hole to find gems from the dug stones.

The town was filled with dust and there were machines at several sites.

Some sites use excavators to dig everywhere, while others dig a mine, and miners go to work with hard hats, mining lamps and picks.

Li Du released the small flying insects, and the small flying insects shuttled around the surrounding land, but they had nothing to gain.

This is normal. The gems of the Lightning Ridge have been excavated for decades and hundreds of years. The gems that are easy to find have been found out, and the gem content here is very low, it is not easy to find.

The car kept driving out, and there was an interesting building outside the town. The specific identity of this building is hard to say. It is a bit like a castle, a bit like the Great Wall, a bit like a building.

This is also a masterpiece of a miner. It is said that he was put in prison for killing his wife because of wrongdoing, and then went to town to become a miner.

The story is a bit like "The Redemption of Shawshank", but this one is even more sturdy, and the miner engraved his experience on the wall of the building.

It is said that the case attracted a lot of media attention after the building was completed, and the Australian police re-investigated the case for this.

Looking at the building, Li Du released a small flying insect into it.

As the small flying insects shuttled around the building, everything in the building appeared in his vision, including the ore used to build the building, and the internal situation also entered his vision.
