860.Takeoff (4/5)

As Li Du thought, Hans deliberately teased him and deliberately did not answer his topic, he didn't believe that Li Du was not in a hurry. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this point, Li Du was actually not in a hurry, he knew that Hans would tell him the truth sooner or later.

But he couldn't say that, he had to pretend to be in a hurry, so that he would be happy if Hans pleased.

Sure enough, after Li Du repeatedly introduced the topic to the photo and the black opal, Hans gradually became happy and told Li Du the truth of the matter.

The photographs were taken by him, and the gems were discovered by him.

Before Li Du left, he asked Hans to take the ama to the area around Shagull Island to fish for black gold abalone, because that place had the most black gold abalone, and he told Hans about the location of several black gold abalone communities.

With his guidance and the strong diving ability of the sea girl, the two have a lot of fun working together on Shaou Island, and they can catch a large number of black gold abalone every day.

But the fishing process has nothing to do with Hans, he just provides the location, the ama goes to the sea to fish, and Ooku goes out to sell, and he is not needed at other times.

After a long time, Hans got bored.

So in this situation, he learned underwater photography, bought a diving camera, and jumped into the water to take pictures in the middle of the day when it was warm at noon.

The abundance of black gold abalone around Shaou Island indicates that there are volcanic and geothermal energy sources, and although it is already autumn, the sea water in the surrounding sea is not cold.

Hans took a lot of photographs, and he had taken this black opal by chance, but he couldn't be sure of the identity of the gem, so he sent it to Li Du for him to see.

As a result, Li Du didn't pay attention to it, which made him very angry, and what made him even more angry was that he took the initiative to call, but Li Du always hung up and didn't give him a chance to introduce the situation.

At this point, he began to complain again.

What could Li Du say? He could only listen silently......

Judging from the photos, this gem should be a black opal, but there are too few things that can be shown in the photos, and there are also problems with the light for underwater shooting, so he is not too sure.

In this case, he must go to Shagull Island to see if there are any gems underwater, and if he finds another gem mine under the sea, he may be able to make another fortune.

After attending a luxury salon, he met the real rich and understood that he was still worth a lot and needed to continue to struggle.

It just so happened that he had stayed enough in Lightning Ridge, and the local mine owners and miners excluded him even more, and after they found out that Li Du had become the owner of the surrounding mines, they were even more determined that Blatche and the others were sent to prison by Li Du.

There was nothing wrong with sending these people to prison, and the mine owners were afraid of Elson's methods, knowing that their butts were not much cleaner than those in prison.

Li Du said that this was an unwarranted disaster, and he did not have such a murderous aura.

But who will listen, and why should he explain it to others?

It just so happened that after more than ten days, Big Ivan overhauled the Mi-8 helicopter.

The main parts of the helicopter, such as the engine, transmission system, and fuel system, were intact, and Big Ivan replaced and maintained some aging parts, and then assembled the upper rotor and tail, and then the helicopter was ready to fly into the sky.

When the helicopter first appeared over Lightning Ridge, many people were stunned because they found out that the helicopter had taken off from the town, which meant that the helicopter had been in the town all along.

The owner of the machinery rental company next door to Mine 408 was the most surprised, the sound of the helicopter was very loud, and the air flow caused by the rotation of the rotor was also very strong, and his side was greatly affected.

The boss ran out to watch, and then watched as a large iron bird flew up from next door to him.

And he recognized the identity of the helicopter, which was the mount of his neighbor who had ridden the helicopter many times in the sky above him.

Soon, the people in the town guessed the reason why Li Du had to take the mine in the first place, but there was a helicopter inside.

The price of this helicopter is not comparable to that of the mine, and people regret it greatly, and at the same time question how Li Du could have found this helicopter.

According to Australian law, the land seized by the state is not allowed to enter, and they speculate that Li Du must have climbed into the mine to see the helicopter that he discovered.

As a result, the mine owners and miners had another reason to hate him, they thought that Li Du had no morals and broke into the seized mine without permission, which was very contemptible.

Li Du didn't even know how to explain this, and he didn't bother to have a good relationship with the people in the town, so if everyone loved and despised it, he didn't care.

Big Ivan piloted the helicopter for a test flight for a day, and after confirming that the helicopter was fine, Li Du happened to take the helicopter to Shaou Island.

Godzilla and the officer stayed here to continue to dig for gems with Obradovich and his party, and Li Du told Godzilla about the trend of the veins and asked him to lead people to work according to his own arrangement.

After its successful formation, the Mi-8-AUx turned into an even more massive behemoth: together with the tail, it exceeded twenty-five meters in length and reached a height of five meters and a half, and ordinary people stood in front of it like a rabbit lying next to a tiger.

Before getting on the helicopter, Li Du repeatedly asked Brother Wolf: "Is this thing okay?"

Brother Wolf said firmly: "Absolutely no problem, Big Ivan is a helicopter expert, and I have full confidence in him." ”

After this period of contact, Li Du also has some confidence in Big Ivan, this guy is very rigorous, although he speaks a little arrogantly, but he is still reliable.

Big Ivan and Brother Wolf entered the cab, and Li Du took Sophie, Sixiao and Ivana into the cabin, and the helicopter flew up as a strong air current hit the ground.

Ah Yan leaned down at the window and looked down, wagging his tail while watching, looking very proud, not afraid of heights at all.

The helicopter briefly adjusted its flight posture in the air, and then picked up speed and flew southeast.

The Mi-8-AUx can fly to an altitude of 4,500 meters, and Big Ivan also pulled up the helicopter as much as he could, and prepared a parachute for everyone.

With a parachute, there is no danger to life, and it is not very dangerous to parachute at this altitude, at most you will break your leg and you will not fall to death.

It is a 1,200-kilometre journey from Lightning Ridge to Shaou Island, and the helicopter can fly up to 4,500 kilometres.

However, the helicopter is fast and can walk in a straight line in the air.

Even with the time wasted by the helicopter taking off and landing many times, they set off in the morning and arrived at Shaou Island in the afternoon.

There is no helipad, no road or artificially cleared flat land on Shaou Island, so ordinary pilots cannot land.

Big Ivan made a beach landing, and as the wind brought up a lot of sand, the helicopter landed steadily, without even a sense of jolting.
