Of course, Guo Xuyang and the others were unaware of this series of operations.
Even if they knew, they wouldn't have claimed credit for it.
After all, there was Lv Liang's diamond mine nearby, and who knew what kind of messy connections these black people had.
After the commotion, it was already dawn when they arrived at the city center.
There was still one diamond exploration site to check. Lv Liang suggested resting before leaving, as traveling for several consecutive days was too tiring.
Anyway, there were still three days until the ship was scheduled to depart.
There was no issue with time.
Guo Xuyang naturally agreed.
There had been too many things happening these past few days, and he needed to rest after using his abilities multiple times.
Ilena was still a little shaken, and Xiao Yun was comforting her.
Anyone would find it difficult to go through such an ordeal.
Fortunately, she hadn't been defiled, otherwise, she really wouldn't know how to live.
Although foreign women were very open, she had only had a few boyfriends.
She was very picky about her boyfriends, they had to be compatible, like Guo Xuyang. They had to be handsome, like her first boyfriend. They had to be rich, like her fiancé.
Her cooperation with Lv Liang here was actually to help her fiancé manage the family business.
As for the incident that happened with Guo Xuyang that night, it could only be said that fate had arrived, coupled with the influence of alcohol, which led to a night of passion.
Since everyone agreed, they decided to find a large hotel and book two standard rooms to rest.
Guo Xuyang didn't wash up after entering the room and immediately fell asleep.
After washing up, Lv Liang looked at the sleeping Guo Xuyang and thought for a long time. He clearly realized that the deaths of those black men were caused by Guo Xuyang.
If the group had only been after money and hadn't teased Ilena, such a thing would never have happened.
It was precisely because they had teased Ilena that Guo Xuyang took action. He hadn't seen how he did it.
But he was absolutely convinced that Guo Xuyang was responsible for this.
Through this incident, he gained a new understanding of Guo Xuyang.
That is, this person had a very good mindset; he could kill people as soon as he decided to, without any psychological burden.
Just by looking at him sleeping, one could tell how broad-minded he was.
He was also very good to those around him, not just in saving Ilena this time.
He recalled being taken to the villa by Hera's people the night before and receiving Guo Xuyang's call. Guo Xuyang had said, "I'm not too sure where this is either. Why don't you meet us at the shop we went to?" and that the reason the police wanted to arrest Guo Xuyang at the handicraft store was simply because he was driving someone else's car.
This fully indicated that he had been following them the whole time when the three of them were taken away, but only returned after the misunderstanding was cleared up.
How did he discover that the three of them were taken away, how did he discover that it was a misunderstanding, and his performance in exploring the diamond deposit all fully demonstrated that Guo Xuyang was a treasure boy.
Boss Jiang Qixin was right, Guo Xuyang had special abilities, but nobody knew what they were.
Moreover, Guo Xuyang was very secretive about revealing these abilities, always using them cautiously and stealthily, not wanting anyone to discover them.
The more Lv Liang analyzed, the more it made sense, but he couldn't ask about it. This made him toss and turn in bed for a long time before he finally fell asleep.
The group woke up around two in the afternoon, still with lingering fear from what happened last night. They decided to stay in the city for another day, wander around, and prepare to set off early tomorrow morning.
Thus, they embarked on a frantic shopping spree.
Xiao Yun bought a gold bangle, a gold bracelet, and a necklace.
Ilena bought two diamond stud earrings and a gold bracelet.
Guo Xuyang bought a bunch of handicrafts and also bought shawls for his parents, which he immediately packaged and sent back home.
Lv Liang, however, didn't buy anything. He was indifferent to these things. Having traveled all over the place, he wasn't interested in them anymore.
After shopping, they went to eat and experience the city's nightlife.
The group was as happy as could be.
The miserable Li Xinglong felt like he had been abandoned, only receiving food daily and never seeing anyone else.
He had never endured such suffering before, and his mental state was close to collapse.
Speaking of which, Li Xinglong was considered lucky.
His wife, son, and over a dozen relatives were locked in a tin shed, the entire room filled with the smell of decay and sweat. Every day, a bucket of water, a bucket of vegetables, and a few packs of flatbread were thrown in, and the door was locked.
No matter how much they cried out, no one paid any attention.
Once, one of Li Xinglong's brothers tried to force his way out while delivering food, but he was held back at gunpoint and brought back, directly scared to the point of urination.
That was real firepower.
From that day on, his mental state became somewhat abnormal; he was dazed and foolish, needing to be fed even when eating.
South Africa was a place with such hot weather. The rooms of the diamond exploration experts were only somewhat comfortable with two air conditioners running, let alone this tin shed without air conditioning.
Everyone had prickly heat, which was incredibly itchy.
No one knew who brought them out or who came up with the idea, but a bucket of water, a bucket of vegetables, and a few packs of flatbread were enough for over a dozen people a day.
There was no chance of getting air conditioning.
What was even more outrageous was that they had to relieve themselves in the tin shed.
In this weather, with this smell, it was truly unbearable for ordinary people.
Inside, there were only Li Xinglong's wife and a cousin who were women; all the others were men.
Now they had all become numb and no longer cared about shame, turning around to relieve themselves.
They even resented the tin shed for being too sturdy, with only one window that was welded shut with iron bars on the outside.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible to vent the foul odor?
Day turned to night, night turned to day; they had lost count of how many days they had been confined here.
How long would this life last?
What awaited them was also unknown.
At night, Cheke received good news: the gold reserves of the gold mine had been calculated to be around 1,100 tons. According to the exploration results, most of it was gold placer.
Although it was good news, after accounting for labor and various other expenses, the profit was only about half. It was feasible.
He informed Hera of this news and planned to gather personnel, bring in equipment, and start construction soon.
At the same time, he informed Vahahts, Lv Liang, and Guo Xuyang of this news, hoping to sign the contract as soon as possible so that all parties could prepare their funds in advance to facilitate construction.
Lv Liang told the other party to prepare the contract, and he would arrive at the gold mine tomorrow afternoon to sign it.
"Cheke, I have some people who can help with the work. I wonder what wages you can offer?"
"Your people will get one dollar per worker per day, settled at the end of the month. How about that?"
"Deal. I'll have people bring them over once your side starts working," Lv Liang said.
He planned to have Li Xinglong and his group work at this gold mine for a period of time, and then transfer them to the diamond mine after his diamond exploration was completed.
He was very clear about Boss Jiang Qixin's intentions: to let these people die in a foreign land, never to return to China in this lifetime.
