Chapter 832: Gang Confrontation

Translator: Nyoi-Bo StudioEditor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Li Du purchased the number 122 mine at only 680,000 AUD, which was lower than the market price. Something must be up whenever there was an abnormality. Why would a normal mine be sold at such a low price?

The boss, who was a small old man, said that he wanted to sell the mine and retire. Consequently, he only wanted to quickly get it off of his hands and hence, was willing to sell it at a low price.

Truth be told, Li Du knew the real reason. The old man had quoted a low price because he was unable to manage the mine due to getting bullied by his neighbors.

The mines in Lightning Ridge were divided by the government according to area. Just like how a chessboard was divided, every mine was surrounded by other mines.

To the west of the number 122 mine was the number 121 mine, to the east was the number 123 mine, to the north was the number 240 mine, and to the south was the number 49 mine. Furthermore, there were still four other mines at the four corners of the number 122 mine.

The number 122 mine was surrounded. Of course, the other mines, except for those along the town's border, were also surrounded by eight other mines. This arrangement was like a formation in the game of Go.

Under normal circumstances, neighboring mines would not interfere with each other and would focus solely on digging their own mines.

However, the number 122 mine was very unlucky. It's eight neighbors were all very unreasonable and would dig into the number 122 mine's area uninvited.

In other words, even though the nine mines were divided normally when viewed from the surface, the eight surrounding mines all had underground tunnels dug into the number 122 mine.

Having discovered this problem through the little bug, Li Du had to resolve it.

As Aubrey and his group had worked in Lightning Ridge for over ten years, they were naturally very familiar with such ambiguous rules. When Li Du decided to purchase the number 122 mine, Aubrey and his group went to find out more about its situation.

What they found was just like what Li Du had seen. ”The surrounding bastards are very domineering. They treat the number 122 mine as their own and have all dug underneath it.”

Hearing this, Li Du frowned. ”Is Mr. Anderson really so easily bullied? Why didn't he call the police? This is considered intruding, right?”

Randall shrugged his shoulders. ”This mine actually doesn't belong to him, it belongs to his younger brother. However, his younger brother died in an accident, and he inherited the mine.

”When his younger brother was alive, he was a very domineering person. As such, no one dared to provoke him. Mr. Anderson's personality is opposite of his younger brother's. As he is extremely weak, those bastards around him began bullying him. Of course, they were also getting back at him for being bullied by his younger brother in the past.”

Li Du said, ”He is really weak. Nonetheless, mining is indeed a dangerous job. Did the previous owner die inside the mine?”

Aubrey chuckled. ”No, that guy died in a woman's bed.”

Li Du was dumbfounded. ”There's such a thing?”

The few burly men laughed covertly and started gossiping.

The whole matter was very simple. The previous owner of the mine, young Anderson, got together with a married woman, which the woman's husband found out about. In the end, due to young Anderson's domineering personality, he ignored the husband's warnings and continued hooking up with his wife.

As such, when young Anderson hooked up with the woman again, the husband, who could no longer tolerate it, rushed into their room with a rifle in hand. Following which, the adulterous pair's blood splattered all over the bedside...

Mainly due to the eight boorish men, who were all vulgar people, describing the sexual interactions between young Anderson and the woman in great detail, even going as far as to describe the positions that they were in, Li Du listened to them with relish.

Li Du felt that listening to them was much more exciting than watching pornography.

After listening to their descriptions, Li Du asked, ”How do you guys know so clearly? D*mn it, did you guys make it up to tease me?”

Aubrey raised his hand and said, ”No no no, boss, I swear we didn't. It's the truth, we have all seen it.”
