Chapter 831: 830. Eight King Kong (45)
The miners are rough, and throwing a party is also very rough.
Marcos booked the Earth Star Bar and invited the mine owner, miners and some familiar town residents to celebrate his surviving.
Just like what Li Du saw when he came to the bar for the first time, all kinds of red wine, beer and cocktails, all kinds of pizza, sandwiches, burgers and barbecue, all kinds of music are loud, except that there is no ****.
However, the miners love sex most. Someone came to Marcos with a wine bottle and asked, "Where are the girls? Why aren't there any girls?"
Marcos said with a smile: "Hey, Big Kane, my good buddy, there is no striptease to watch today, so you can drink honestly."
Big Kane patted him on the shoulder and said dissatisfiedly: "God, are you kidding me? You invited a group of miners to the party, doesn't that mean there will be ****?"
Marcos said: "But today I have a lady among my VIP guests, I think this should be avoided."
Big Kane left in disappointment, and someone came after him and asked, "Why haven't the striptease girls come yet?"
Marcos laughed: "There is no striptease to watch today..."
After dealing with several groups of people, Obradovic finally shouted: "There is no striptease today, only drinking today."
After hearing this, the miners sighed in disappointment, and then stopped pestering Marcos.
But Marcos didn't feel that he was being entangled. He was very good-tempered today, no matter what answer he had to answer, he always smiled.
Li Du praised him specifically: "You are such a good-tempered fellow."
Marcos said leisurely: "I used to have a bad temper. When I was in the mine, I figured it out. Life is so precious. Every hour of every day is precious. I should cherish it and life. Why should I be angry? ?”
Obradovic agreed: "Yes, Boss Marcos, I swear I have become a good-tempered guy too, now..."
Someone spilled a glass of beer on top of his head from behind, and before he finished speaking, his expression changed immediately: "Fuck, who wants to talk to God, right? How dare you mess with me?"
Li Du and Marcos laughed loudly, Marcos raised his glass to him, and the two toasted and drank.
People kept coming up and patting Li Du on the shoulder to toast him. Less than half an hour after the party started, there had been no fewer than ten group toasts because of Li Du.
Marcos took Li Du to the bar, and a bartender asked, "Marcos, we have already consumed twelve barrels of our self-brewed beer, should we continue to serve it?"
"Why not?" Marcos said, "keep serving the wine and let everyone have a good time!"
"Oh yeah!" The people around cheered when they heard this.
Li Du said: "It seems that your wallet is bleeding profusely today."
Marcos said: "Happiness is the most important thing. Besides, this is my last party at Lightning Ridge, and I hope it will be the best."
Hearing this, Li Du was taken aback and asked, "What do you mean? The last party?"
Marcos took a sip of his beer, leaned on the bar and said, "Well, I want to leave Lightning Ridge. It's too messy here. Let's talk outside?"
The two squeezed out of the bar, and Brother Wolf followed behind faithfully, keeping a distance of five meters.
Sitting down on the steps in front of the bar, Marcos said slowly: "When I was crushed in the mine, I thought a lot. It's ridiculous to say that I was thinking about the meaning of life."
"Where do I come from, and where will I go if the rescue fails? What does the world look like after death? If I survive, how should I appreciate life and cherish life?"
"In the end, I decided to leave Lightning Ridge, and even I will leave Australia, and go to your Asia, China, Japan, Cambodia, Thailand and so on."
"Go to the United States, go to Northern Europe, go to the North Pole. In short, I want to see the earth and this magnificent planet. I don't want to work so hard for money anymore. It's a waste of life."
Li Du said, "Is this your dream?"
Marcos put his hands behind his head, leaned against the wall, looked at the starry sky, and said, "Yes, my dream. I wanted to be an adventurer when I was a teenager. Now, I'm going to realize it."
Li Du smiled and said, "Do you know what my dream is? The dream of my youth."
"What?" Max asked with a smile.
Li Du looked up at the brilliant starry sky, and said leisurely: "Astronaut, I want to go to space, walk in space, overlook the earth, and look at the galaxy..."
Marcos laughed and said: "My dream is easier to realize, yours is too difficult, but I can't laugh at you, because we are at the same starting point."
As he said that, he raised the wine bottle and wanted to toast again: "To our lovely and poor dreams."
Marcos is going to sell his three mines. He is not a very rich person. He still owes a bank loan. He has to sell the mines to pay off the loan, and then use the rest of the money to travel.
But he is not poor either. He has a small farm and a small villa in Sydney. These two things ensure that he may not be rich, but he will not starve to death.
Li Du didn't mention the matter of taking over his three mines, because he didn't want to embarrass Marcos. How would the price be right if he sold it to him? After all, he is a savior.
After being silent for a while, Marcos looked at him and said, "Li, I have an unfeeling request, I don't know if I can say it."
Li Du said: "Of course, if you want to get a copy of China Adventure Raiders from me, I will do my best to help you."
Marcos said: "Thank you, but this request is more difficult. I want to ask if you are interested in hiring guys like Aub."
Li Du pondered for a while, and said, "How do you say that?"
Marcos sighed: "Aub and the others have been working with me for more than ten years. Together, we have grown from bragging boys to today. These guys have no sense of financial management. I can't trust them."
Li Du said: "You don't need to feel any pressure. They are all outstanding adults. There are countless mine owners in Lightning Ridge waiting to hire them."
Marcos shook his head and said, "I'm not their boss or leader, I'm their big brother, and I know these bastards."
He took a sip of beer and said helplessly: "Perhaps many mine owners are coveting their ability to work, but after they really get in touch with them, they will know that these eight bastards are not easy to manage. I don't think it will take long before they will be here. Lightning Ridge has a bad reputation."
"You are different, Li, you can definitely discipline them. As long as you can discipline them, these eight people will become your good helpers in Lightning Ridge."
"They're so good in this business, I'm not a goddamn salesman, recommending the goods in my hand, I'm serious, take them, they will help you a lot."
Listening to Marcos' introduction, Li Du fell into deep thought.
