Chapter 824 823. Eight hundred thousand crayfish (25)
After some consideration, Cole temporarily accepted Li Du's request.
There is one thing that makes Li Du very satisfied. He holds the shares of the group, but he never talks too much, and never interferes with the group's affairs.
In addition, he was willing to agree to the conditions proposed by Li Du, and he was still optimistic about Li Du's potential.
Cole doesn't know why Li Du can always find gems, but the other party can find them, which can bring great help to Winston Group.
He is also afraid now. If it hadn't been for the acquisition of a batch of fire opals with excellent qualifications at a huge sum of 70 million yuan, the Winston Group may be acquired at a low price now.
Few people know that the Swiss watch giant Swatch Group has been in contact with him and his team since last year, wanting to acquire the Winston Group, which is in financial crisis.
Cole has been holding on, he doesn't want the business that the family has put in endless painstaking efforts to be sold in his own hands.
Fortunately, God was good to him. Just when he couldn't hold on, Li Du stepped in and provided a batch of super high-quality gemstones, and was willing to accept shares.
After acquiring this batch of high-quality fire opals, Cole immediately launched publicity, mortgage and financing, and now the Winston Group has come out of the bankruptcy crisis.
In the past, Cole's dream was to keep the group and not let the group end in his own hands.
Now the group looks like it won't go bankrupt anymore. After showing signs of improvement, he has further ambitions, which is to gradually restore the family business to its peak through his own hands!
He knew very well that if the Winston Group wanted to restore its reputation, it would need a large number of excellent works to appear, and he had to occupy the market, and this depended on Li Du.
If Li Du gave him hope with a batch of fire opal before, now it is the black opal that gave him the confidence to persevere.
The identification results of fifty-five black opals came out, and the market price is estimated to be between six million and seven million.
Li Du took the minimum value of 6 million and traded it to Winston Group at this price in exchange for 0.6% of the shares, so that he will hold a total of 9.4% of the group's shares.
Cole transferred 0.6% of the equity, and the equity in his hand dropped to 40.4%, still holding the position of chairman of the group.
Holding the gemstones that had been identified, Cole returned to Sydney by helicopter that afternoon. He had to put in a lot of effort to revive the family business.
He left an invitation letter for Li Du, inviting him to attend the upcoming Sydney Autumn Jewelry Salon.
There are still some days before the salon starts, and Li Du temporarily stays at Lightning Ridge, continuing to search for black opal.
Blatche was discharged from the hospital. The trauma caused by the red-bellied black snake was not serious. He only stayed in the hospital for two days. After the serum was injected, he was not in danger.
After he was discharged from the hospital, he went to find Li Du that night. Li Du was joking with the mine owner and miners in the bar, looking for a mine that could be taken over.
After Blatche entered, a miner spotted him and burst into laughter: "Hey, buddy, I heard you were bitten by a snake? Why were you so careless?"
"Come out alive? Oh God, he sure didn't hear my prayers."
"It's useless for you to pray to God. This bastard should go to hell. That's not God's place. You should go to Satan."
For two days, Blatche looked haggard, with bloodshot eyes and heavy bags under his eyes. It was obvious that he had not had a good rest recently.
When he saw Li Du, his eyes radiated a frightening light, he walked over and patted the table and said, "Have a glass of dark beer."
The bartender who was wiping the glass also teased him, saying, "Dark beer? Are you sure it's dark beer? As far as I know, it's better to drink some spirits after being bitten by a snake. Spirits can kill viruses and bacteria."
Blatche ignored the bartender, stared at Li Du and said, "Hey, Li, you made a good move."
Li Du leisurely said: "I just follow your chess game down, thank God, you are also very cooperative."
Blatche said: "Look, man, I know I did something stupid before, I'm sorry about mine 115, I used your trust to hurt you."
"It's nothing, it's all over, right?" Li Du interrupted him.
Blatche continued to stare at him and said, "Then can you forgive me? I mean, give me back the four hundred and fifty thousand that belongs to me, and we'll be friends again."
Li Du shook his head and said, "Sorry, I don't want to be friends with you anymore."
The veins on Blatche's forehead throbbed, and he said, "You mean, you want to start a war with me?"
Li Du raised his hand and said, "Hey, don't get me wrong, I'm not a violent person, I don't want to fight with you."
Hearing this, Blatche's expression became brighter. He thought that Li Du was going to give in.
As a result, Li Du continued, "If you want to fight, my bodyguard will accompany you."
Brother Wolf stood up, walked behind Blatche with a cold face, folded his arms in front of his chest, and propped up his chest muscles, revealing his violent aura.
Blatche gritted his teeth and looked at Li Du and said, "Okay, you must start a war with me, you have to figure it out, Yankee, this is Lightning Ridge, this is not your territory, it's mine!"
Li Du said: "No matter what you say, I will never give you 450,000!"
Blatche became furious, slapped the table and stood up and shouted: "Very good, very good, you can keep the 450,000 yuan, and save it to buy a coffin for yourself."
After saying this, he left angrily.
The bartender yelled at him, "You haven't paid the bill yet, damn it, your stout is here for you."
Li Du took out a banknote and put it on the table, saying: "I will help him pay the bill. He once bought me a drink. I don't like to owe people favors, so I will treat him back once."
When Blatche, who walked to the door of the bar, heard this, he was so angry that he almost fell over.
In the days that followed, Li Du stepped up his defenses. He believed that Blatche would definitely take revenge on him because of his shame.
But with Brother Wolf around, Blatche couldn't make any splashes.
After investigating and searching by small flying insects, he found another mine containing black opal veins.
In order to better manage the mines in Lightning Ridge, all mines have an area of 20 mu and are divided into grids.
After Li Du found the mine, he bought it at a market price of 800,000 yuan.
The owner of the mine sold it very happily. He searched it carefully, but found no trace of gemstones. He spent a lot of energy and money on this, which made him impatient.
This mine is No. 408, which is relatively close to the Lightning River.
Someone asked Li Du why he bought the mine, and Li Du said: "It is convenient for me to catch crayfish here. I like to eat crayfish."
Some people really believe Li Du's words. The arrival of Cole Winston is a scene that many people have seen. They believe that Li Du is the major shareholder of Winston Group, and they also believe that rich people will be self-willed for their favorite food. Buy a mine.
