Chapter 1424 1424. Finishing (35)

Snake catching is not like the previous competition. To catch snakes with bare hands is the way of expert competition. Normally snake catching has equipment, and everyone is almost fully armed to enter, not afraid of snake bites.

After a lot of work, all the poisonous snakes that ran out were caught. Li Du and Brother Lang caught the snakes running in the passage corridor, and Griffin led people to catch the snakes in the snake pool.

Snake catching equipment is thick clothes, pants and gloves. Wearing them on a hot day makes them sweat profusely after a busy day.

After closing the cage door, Griffin was the last one to come out. He counted the losses with a bad face.

Xin Gele wanted to say something, but finally found that he had nothing to say, so he could only squat down and get an IV drip in despondency.

Li Du wiped his sweat and said, "You guys are busy with some work, I won't disturb you here anymore, we will see you indefinitely."

Griffin said: "Thank you for your help just now, wait for me, I will write you a check."

Li Du waved his hand and said, "No need, clean up your mess, I didn't come to you to win money."

Hearing this, Griffin was stunned and said, "Yes, why are you here? I don't know the purpose of your coming to me."

As soon as they met, the two sides started to fight, but in the end, Li Du hadn't revealed his purpose, which is also a bit funny.

Li Du said: "I originally wanted to hire you. I found an Indian tribe in the Blue Ridge section of the Appalachian Mountains and traded with them. Their tribe has the business of capturing wild poisonous snakes to collect serum, venom and make snake skin. I want someone to take charge of that."

Griffin said: "Didn't you come to me to sell anti-venom? Damn it, I misunderstood you!"

He added: "At first you said you were going to cooperate with me, I thought you were going to buy snakes, but you came and took out the serum, so I thought you were promoting these things, there was a contrast between before and after, one is that I can earn you money, one is because you earn my money, that's why I treat you like that."

Li Du didn't know what to say, he was a bit simple-minded.

After understanding his reason for coming, Griffin was moved again, and asked him: "If we can cooperate, how can we cooperate?"

Li Du said: "You help me check the texture of the venom and serum, and then set the price. You can be regarded as one of my consultants. Every time I travel, I will be responsible for the travel and food, and I will give you a consultant fee of 3,000 to 5,000 yuan according to the workload."

Griffin rubbed his hands and said, "Why didn't you say it earlier? I am willing to cooperate with you, and I can be this consultant."

Li Du hummed: "I wanted to say it at the time, but did you give me a chance?"

Griffin said embarrassingly: "Sorry, sorry, my fault. In this way, I can be this consultant, and I don't charge any fees for the first two jobs. It's a trial."

Li Du's expression softened a lot. This guy is not bad, but he doesn't suffer from doing so. He lost 10,000 yuan to Li Du in the previous bet alone. Li Du didn't ask him for money. If he agreed to do it Consultant, it is even more impossible to ask him for money.

The job that could have been done with a few words was finally done, but there were some setbacks during the period, and Griffin was asking for trouble.

The two parties left contact information for each other, and Li Du handed him the prepared contract for him to sign, and the two parties began to cooperate.

With Francis and Griffin, the business of the Tavisi Tribe can be carried out. This is another way to make money. Although it is impossible to make a lot of money from the Indians, it is a long-term business. After all, this is a long-term business.

A few days later, Steve returned from the petroglyph cave. He took a lot of photos and made rubbings to study the contents of the petroglyph.

So far, Li Du and Mr. Martin have announced the existence of rock painting caves to the outside world: in the deep mountains of the Blue Ridge, the oldest rock painting in North America has been discovered!

With consultants, bodyguards and experts, Li Du returned to the deep mountains again.

This time they flew directly to Pittsburgh by plane, then turned into a car, followed the winding mountain road all the way into the Blue Ridge, and then began to climb the mountains.

There are many mountaineering enthusiasts in the United States. The cave and petroglyphs have not been discovered for a long time. The reason is that they are deeply hidden, so although it is easier than going up the mountain for the first time, it still takes a lot of effort and time for them.

The old experts were exhausted and often needed the support of bodyguards. Li Du prepared a large number of energy bars and functional drinks in advance to prevent some people from falling behind due to physical problems.

Fortunately, probably because of the support of their beliefs, the elderly experts followed Li Du to climb the mountain without complaint. Some of the old experts performed well, and it could be seen that they had been exercising all the time.

Mr. Martin performed quite well. Li Du wanted to show off and support him, but the old man waved his hand and said, "Everything is OK, I think it's okay. The environment here is really good. It was a mistake not to come to Blue Ridge before."

Li Du said: "Continue to climb in, there are more beautiful scenery waiting for us."

Finally, under the guidance of GPS, they entered the cave, and petroglyphs with bright colors or vicissitudes appeared one after another!

After seeing these petroglyphs, the big cows hurried into the cave with cold light and began to investigate without taking a break.

Someone wanted to take a photo, but an archaeologist stopped him and said seriously: "This is a precious treasure, no amount of protection can be overstated, don't take pictures inside, don't let the light damage the petroglyphs!"

Li Du didn't think it was necessary. The petroglyphs were not painted, they were carved on rocks, so how could they be so easily damaged?

However, the experts were very cautious. All the lights entering the cave were cold lights, trying to minimize the impact on the petroglyphs.

The rest had nothing to do with Li Du, he took the advisory group to the Tawixi Tribe to make a deal.

Seeing him again, people in the tribe extended the highest courtesy one after another. Li Du took Ah Ao with him, and Ah Ao could walk sideways in the tribe.

He brought a lot of gifts to the tribe, most of which are daily necessities needed in the mountains, various spices, various seasonings, various daily necessities, and he also brought some books. After seeing it, Sadislam could only smile helplessly. .

The chief accepted the gifts with a smile, and then showed gold, silver, snake products, furs, ginseng herbs and handicrafts.

Finally, the chief said to Li Du: "If there is a way, can you help us bring some horses in next time?"

There were no horses in North America. The Europeans brought the animals, and the Indians living in the wild quickly fell in love with them.

Li Du agreed to come down and said it was all right, this time they also brought animals, but they were mules, otherwise they would not be able to bring the gifts up the mountain, nor could they bring the Indians' goods down the mountain.

Francis and Griffin appraised precious metals and snake products, and Li Du set their own prices. They stayed in the tribe for a day, and finally Li Du handed over 400,000 in cash and took away goods worth millions. .
