Chapter 1249 1249. News (35)

The search for mammoth ivory is now controlled by gangs and clans, which is related to the working environment.

As mentioned earlier, the wilderness of Siberia is too dangerous. If there is not enough reliable assistance, the more ivory is dug in those places, the more dangerous it will be.

For Li Du, 30,000 to 40,000 U.S. dollars is not much, but for these laborers living at the bottom, the money saved can be used as the living expenses of the family for several years.

Killing a man and taking the mammoth tusk he dug up without the criminal cost is a very tempting option for many people.

According to the survey data, Jonas Malone joined four gangs successively, namely the Sea Dragon Gang, the Big K Gang, the Horn Gang, and the Ice and Snow Tomahawk.

The renewal rate of these gangs is very fast, and many people will quit after digging up a few mammoth tusks. It is obviously better to use the money to start a small business in the city than to suffer in the cold in the wasteland.

There are many dangers in the wasteland, not only the same kind are watching from behind, but also prairie wolves, poisonous spiders, poisonous insects and various swamps, etc. It is not easy to make money.

Jonas Malone joined too many gangs, which caused difficulties for Li Du and his investigation work, because they didn't know whether Malone was still in the Frozen Tomahawk organization.

However, the Ice and Snow Battle Ax was a clue for investigation, and Li Du and the others had to start their investigation from this clue.

As soon as they entered the door, someone whistled at them. A big man with a tattoo on his face said with a frivolous smile, "Wow, where is the beautiful girl? I like it!"

Godzilla, Da Ao and others then walked in, and the tattooed man turned his head silently, holding the big wine glass and drinking his wine honestly.

Most of these people are good at bullying, and although they are rude, they don't like to cause trouble.

It's still the same reason, after entering the wasteland, no one can say for sure what will happen, no one wants to offend someone, and then be hanged by their tails, so that they may encounter a black gun at any time.

The tattooed guy took the initiative to cause trouble, Li Du is not polite, so let's make a breakthrough from this buddy.

He sat down and the others followed.

The big tattooed man was flexible, stood up with his wine glass and wanted to leave.

Li Du nodded, and Godzilla's two big hands slapped the tattooed man's shoulders like iron pliers, pushing him back with brute force.

The tattooed man panicked, and took the initiative to show his weakness: "Ha, guys, I just said a few more words because I drank too much."

"Yes, don't be as knowledgeable as this idiot." The people next to him also spoke for him.

Someone else said softly but hard: "It's okay to say something casually in a bar, right? Everyone knows what this place is, and there is a reason for daring to come here, right?"

Li Du patted the table and said to the bartender: "Serve the wine, craft cold beer, fill the glasses of these guys, and I'll treat them to a drink."

The tattooed men were at a loss, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling.

After taking a sip of the craft beer mixed with ice cubes, Li Du couldn't help sighing: "It's so cool, it's so cold from the top of the head to the bottom of the feet!"

The tattooed man sneered and said, "If you go to Evenki and Saha, you will feel the same way if you don't drink cold beer."

Li Du smiled and nodded: "I'm going to go now, do you often go there?"

The tattooed man said: "Occasionally, uh, you know, there are mammoth tusks there, right?"

"Yes, there are mammoth ivory there, and there are many gangs." Li Du raised his glass to signal him to toast together, "Which gang do you belong to?"

The tattooed man sniffed, he would be a little wary.

Li Du's words easily made them think that an enemy came to them, but ivory hunters generally would not solve their troubles in the city. There are places in the wasteland where they can fight, and even dead people can be dealt with.

Thinking of this, the big men relaxed.

The tattooed man said: "Monster face, we are all monster face people. Do you know us? Our boss is a Cossack red face, he is a cool guy."

"Yeah, big red-faced Cossack! I wish him health and bravery!"

Others raised their glasses and shouted, not really wanting to toast, but more like announcing Li Du and his party.

Li Du didn't care about this, he smiled and said: "I just came here, I don't know your situation, monster face? I'm sorry, I haven't heard much about it, but I have heard of the Ice and Snow Battle Axe."

After hearing what he said, the faces of several people were not very good-looking, and one of them said: "Ice and snow battle axe? I admit that they are a group of powerful bastards, but they are finished."

"What do you mean?" Li Du was depressed. Of course he knew what it meant. The Frozen Tomahawk gang had disbanded or closed down.

Sure enough, the big guy laughed and said, "This gang doesn't exist anymore, it didn't exist a month ago, and their bosses are bastards, they took the ivory dug up by the gang and ran away."

It's a big reason why gangs fail, and they're poor people who come together not because of friendship, but because of a joint force to protect each other.

Mammoth ivory and other precious things are the source of trouble. In order to keep this thing, they will gather ivory after they get it, and then accumulate a certain amount before processing it.

The Siberian wilderness is too big, and it is very difficult to get in and out. There are no ivory buyers in it, and it is impossible for them to sell every ivory they get.

Therefore, when the amount of ivory accumulated is large, there may be chaos within the gang, and someone will try to steal them, usually the big bosses do this, and they have more power.

Li Du took out a photo depressedly, and said, "Damn it, this is terrible. I wanted to make a fortune with my buddy, but he told me that he stayed in the ice battle ax..."

Several people looked at the photo together, and then showed blank expressions on their faces. Obviously they didn't know Jonas Malone.

There are many ivory hunters, tens of thousands, and it is impossible for them to know each other. Especially Jonas Malone knows his identity. He is very low-key and will not easily make himself famous.

A big man said: "If you are looking for someone with Ice and Snow Tomahawk, then I suggest you go to the Black Cross and ask. The Black Cross has taken in a lot of people."

Li Du said: "There are so many brothers in our bar, it's impossible that no one knows me, right? Who can help me find him? As long as there is information, I will give him 10,000 yuan."

"U.S. dollars?" Immediately, someone's eyes lit up.

"U.S. dollars." Li Du nodded.

Several big men moved, and after a while, a young man with a hideous scar on his face was brought over.

He glanced at Li Du and asked, "Why are you looking for Bryant?"

"Bryant?" Li Du shook his head. "My guy's name is Black Viper. Of course, I only know his nickname. He didn't tell me his real name."
