Chapter 734 Hell on Earth
Du Cheng didn't stay in Cheng's villa at night, and he left after dinner.
Anyway, Cheng Yan had to accompany Fang Xiaoyi and the others at night, and Du Cheng had no chance to stay with Cheng Yan. Moreover, Cheng Yan would also go to the capital in a few days, so the two of them would have plenty of time to meet.
The next day, Du Cheng basically stayed in the Sun Moon Residence, and only went to Cheng's villa at noon. After all, Du Cheng didn't spend much time in the Sun Moon Residence when he came back this time.
On the morning of the third day, Du Cheng drove to Shanghai early and got on the plane to South Africa.
Before going to South Africa, Du Cheng also made a call to Ai Qier, she would stay in Paris for about half a month, and then Du Cheng made another call to Vitu.
Regarding the matter of the mining company, Du Cheng naturally did not go to talk to the local government in person, but asked Weitu to help.
Vitu still has a lot of influence in the local area, and, at that time, the mining company will be under the name of Vitu, and in the name of Vitu, request the government to strengthen the law and order there and so on.
It is undoubtedly much better for Weitu to discuss these matters than Du Cheng himself.
For Weitu, Du Cheng's request can only be regarded as a small request, and he naturally wouldn't mind doing Du Cheng a favor. The government has drawn up an agreement, which can be said to go very smoothly.
In fact, the local government also wants to renovate the Tamaya Mine, but the traffic in this place is too inconvenient, and there are many desperadoes, plus the security is not easy to manage, so the local government has been All dragging.
And Weitu's proposal undoubtedly hit the heart of the local government. In addition, when Weitu proposed to build a road between the Tamaya mine and the city, the local government naturally strongly supported it.
For this result, Du Cheng was not surprised, because this was already within his expectation.
With the agreement negotiated, he, Du Cheng, can also officially start the cleanup of the Tamaya Mine.
----------------------------------------
Every time he goes to South Africa, what makes Du Cheng most depressed is not the tens of hours of plane travel, but the troublesome transit. For this, Du Cheng has no choice but to be helpless.
This helplessness even gave Du Cheng the idea of buying a private jet.
In fact, Du Cheng has already had this idea. With a private jet, his travel will undoubtedly be much easier. Moreover, with his current wealth, the price of the private jet is not even a drop in the bucket for him. .
However, Du Cheng had no choice but to give up on this extremely attractive idea.
A private jet is good, but it's too obvious, and in China, if a private jet flies over the sky, it needs to be approved. Not only that, even a private jet can only be parked in the airport, unless Du Cheng himself is also Build an airport.
These are not too difficult things, but what makes Du Cheng dispel this idea is the safety of the private jet.
In other words, in fact, private jets have no security at all. If someone wants to touch Du Cheng, private jets are undoubtedly the best target. If something happened, he would not be able to escape successfully.
In comparison, those Air China planes are much safer. Every time he books a ticket, he will use a fake name to book it, and when it arrives, he can modify it temporarily. Even now, Du Cheng basically flies , They all use fake passports and certificates directly, and others can't find out even if they want to check.
Between the two, obviously the security of the latter is much higher.
Of course, thinking about it, Du Cheng felt depressed, but in the end he had to change planes and embarked on the trip to South Africa again.
It was noon when Du Cheng set off, and by the time he arrived in Cape Town, it was already around ten o'clock in the evening local time.
He just got off the plane and walked into the airport hall, Ah San was already waiting for him in the airport hall.
Looking at Du Cheng who came out of the airport passageway, Ah San's face was obviously a little more excited, because he knew that Du Cheng's arrival represented the beginning of the mission.
The two didn't say anything in the airport hall, but walked out of the airport hall together, and got on a Hummer that Ah San temporarily bought in Cape Town.
In the car, Ah San started the car, and said to Du Cheng very relaxedly: "Brother Du, we have already taken care of those mercenary organizations. When those guys first arrived, what did they look like? Now, each of them is almost like a grandson."
However, Ah San said it was easy, but in fact, he and Da Gang also spent a lot of effort to deal with those mercenaries.
After all, the other party is living on the tip of a knife, so how could he give in easily.
"Well, where are they now? Where do you arrange for them to live?" Du Cheng knew that this kind of thing would not trouble Ah San. If it was just a physical confrontation, Ah San could easily solve the more than a hundred of them by himself. As for mercenaries, compared with guns, Dagang is even more of a geek-level figure in this respect. Even Du Cheng was amazed at Dagang's ability to play with guns.
"I found a few old hotels and arranged them all in those hotels. They can move at any time." After a pause, Ah San continued: "As for the brothers from the Tianzu, they live with us. In the same hotel, all the brothers have arrived."
Du Cheng nodded lightly, and said, "It's about the same. Tomorrow, let's go to Tamaya Mine to have a look. If there are no problems, we can act the day after tomorrow."
"Brother Du, are we going to Tamaya Mine tomorrow?" Hearing what Du Cheng said, Ah San's eyes lit up.
"Well, let's take a look at the specific situation first, and learn about the distribution of forces there, and then we can arrange and plan actions." These arrangements have already been made by Du Cheng, and he will not be arrogant enough to rely on more than a hundred people. The mercenaries, together with Ah San and the others, could easily sweep the entire Tamaya Mine.
If that is the case, the local government has already started to act, how can it be possible for the forces on the Tamaya Mine to occupy the mountain as king.
With more than sixty forces and more than a dozen mercenary organizations, even if an army is sent, it may not be possible to attack them by force.
Therefore, what Du Cheng has to do is to understand the situation on the Tamaya Mine, and Du Cheng can't be sure about the situation there.
Of course, Du Cheng also needs to make some preparations before he actually takes action.
"Okay, Brother Du, I'm already looking forward to it."
Ah San laughed, and directly increased the speed of the car, and quickly moved towards the direction of the hotel.
This time they came to South Africa, Ah San and the others knew that they were not here to enjoy themselves, so the hotel they stayed in was not one of those luxurious big hotels, but directly booked a small three-star hotel for them and a group of 100 people. Brothers live.
Of course, Ah San also prepared a room for Du Cheng, because it was getting late, and Du Cheng didn't ask Ah San to inform those Tianzu brothers, but went directly to Ah San under Ah San's leadership. San prepared a suite for him.
Da Gang and the queen were in the suite at the moment, but they just greeted Du Cheng, and then went back to rest.
With Du Cheng's order, they all chose to rest today. If it were normal, this time would be their golden time. If it is not until eleven or two o'clock, they will definitely not come back.
--------------------------------------
Early the next morning, Du Cheng, Ah San, Da Gang, and the Queen woke up early. At around five o'clock, a group of four people sat on Ah San's Hummer and headed towards the Tamaya Mine. set off in the direction.
Ah San went to the Tamaya Mine when he was on mission, but at that time he went directly by helicopter instead of driving.
However, judging by Ah San's appearance at this moment, he is obviously very familiar with the route to the Tamaya Mine. Obviously, after coming to Cape Town, he and Dagang may have explored the way first.
The Hummer quickly left the urban area, and after driving for a while at high speed, it turned directly into the rugged mountain road. The uneven road surface, coupled with the slopes, may not be easy for ordinary SUVs to pass. of.
And this is obviously the reason Ah San bought a Hummer, otherwise, according to his personality, he must have bought a sports car.
Du Cheng also noticed something. Seeing that Ah San seemed to be very familiar with him, Du Cheng asked Ah San directly: "Ah San, have you ever been to that place?"
Listening to Du Cheng's question, the faces of Ah San, Da Gang and the Queen were obviously a little ugly, and even a little embarrassing.
And Ah San asked Du Cheng with a bitter face, "Du Cheng, can we not talk about this?"
Seeing Ah San like this, Du Cheng became a little more curious, and said directly: "No."
Ah San pointed to Dagang, and said directly: "Dagang, tell me, the road here is not easy to drive." 3
Obviously, Ah San was looking for an excuse.
Dagang also wanted to push the matter to the queen, but after being glared at by the queen, he had no choice but to say: "The second day we came here, we planned to go to the Tamaya Mine to have a look first, but at that time, the three of us All estimates were wrong, there was no gas in the middle of the journey, and then I gave up and went back halfway, but because of those mercenaries, I didn't go..."
Hearing what Dagang said, Du Cheng couldn't help but smile a little more on his face.
With Ah San's experience, they would make such a low-level mistake. No wonder Ah San and the others reacted like this.
However, for those who go to the Tamaya Mine for the first time, this is probably a very normal thing.
Basically, SUVs with better performance are oil tigers themselves, and large SUVs like the Hummer are even more oil tigers among oil tigers.
In addition, nearly half of the nearly 100-mile journey to the Tamaya Mine is rugged and very difficult to drive, so the fuel consumption is naturally even more astonishing.
Thinking of this, Du Cheng finally understood why when he set off in the morning, Dagang would carry the washing oil of the four major oils and put it in the back box. Naturally, he had prepared in advance. If half of the oil is out, it will be embarrassing.
However, this section of the mountain road is indeed very difficult to drive. Even if the off-road performance of the Hummer is good, even Du Cheng feels a little stuffy when bumped along the way.
As for Ah San and the others, they took turns driving directly. Unless one is used to driving this kind of mountain road, no matter how good the driving skills are, it is difficult to adapt to it.
Along the way, Du Cheng and the others also saw a lot of vehicles. There are basically only two types of these vehicles. One is an SUV similar to the Hummer that Du Cheng and the others are riding in. Most of them are Wranglers and Jeeps. An SUV with excellent off-road performance.
There is also a small truck. It is difficult for large trucks to pass on these mountain roads, so small trucks have become the only means of communication for transporting ore. However, these small trucks will also transport water in addition to transporting ore.
There is no water source in the Tamaya Mine, and all water sources must be transported from the city. It is conceivable that life in that place is probably very difficult.
As for the distance of nearly a hundred miles, Du Cheng and the others said that it took them more than three hours to arrive.
Du Cheng has never seen the Tamaya Mine with his own eyes, and what he has seen are only those satellite pictures.
But what you see with your own eyes is completely different from what it looks like on satellite pictures.
The area of the Tamaya Mine is very large, surrounded by bare stone mountains or gray soil mountains, one by one, it looks very desolate, and there are very few green plants, no wonder there is no water source.
As for the Tamaya Mine, it is like a basin in these stone mountains, surrounded by those stone mountains and gray soil mountains. Looking from a distance, Du Cheng did not see the large and small mines first, but instead I saw patches of tents and wooden buildings.
As for the houses built with cement and steel bars, there are only a dozen or so in the entire Tamaya Mine. However, against the backdrop of those tents and wooden buildings, they look like villas.
These are actually nothing, because Du Cheng and the others already knew that the conditions here are very tough. What really made them look at each other was the bursts of gunshots from afar, and there were even grenades that they didn't know were grenades. Or the bang of a rocket launcher.
It is conceivable that this Tamaya is not just ordinary chaos, but very, very chaotic, it can even be described as hell on earth.
