"I'll think about it. You know, so many people coming out to eat and drink is a problem..."
"Don't worry, I'll take absolute care of these people. All expenses for these few days will be on me."
Chike, sensing an opportunity, said quickly.
"Let us go out freely. Your relatives and friends will definitely receive the best care."
"Alright then, I'll stay here for a couple more days. We'll all get rich together." Guo Xuyang said, patting Chike's back with a smile.
Chike was speechless; he was defeated by Guo Xuyang's shamelessness.
Such a wealthy person still cared about such a small amount. It was true that the richer one got, the stingier they became.
This was not a small amount, and Chike was unaware that Guo Xuyang had promised to cover all expenses for everyone.
Not to mention these people, each would receive two sets of gold jewelry, a diamond necklace, plus some local specialty clothing, and special privileges like Fatty's shameless "super buying" – each person would cost at least a million.
Otherwise, Guo Xuyang wouldn't have been smiling so sinisterly.
Nearly fifty people had come with Guo Xuyang this time. It was uncertain if Chike would still be able to smile if he knew this.
After lunch, Chike took Guo Xuyang out.
Meanwhile, Pi Xiaoqian looked at everyone and said, "Yangzi has paved the way for us. Shall we go and indulge in some happy shopping?"
"Fatty, are you planning to feast on someone?" Li Minxi asked.
"Of course. If they're willing to pay, why not take advantage? Didn't you hear what Yangzi said to that person earlier? He begged Yangzi to stay."
Pi Xiaoqian said slyly.
"Do you think Yangzi is such a generous person? Of course, Yangzi won't treat the other party badly.
Aren't you going? Once this opportunity is gone, it won't come again."
"Let's go. Since someone is paying, why shouldn't we?
This morning, I went to see the gold mine with Xiao Yun. The gold here shouldn't be expensive.
It would be nice to pick some to take back as gifts for relatives and friends," Li Minxi said.
With the two of them leading the way, everyone went to the manor to get cars and headed towards the city in a grand procession.
Who couldn't shop? As long as there was money, what couldn't be bought? Especially with someone else footing the bill.
Guo Xuyang followed Chike to a private airport and boarded a helicopter.
He knew Chike had a place in mind but was unsure and wanted him to take a look.
Therefore, he didn't say much, but closed his eyes and released his senses.
The mineral deposits below were scattered. One had to admit that Africa was a treasure trove.
Especially the land they were on, which contained countless types of mineral resources, though the reserves were not very large.
However, for private mining, this was just right, as such large investments might not be affordable for private individuals.
The helicopter flew for over an hour before landing at the foot of a mountain.
"Mr. Guo, we've arrived." Chike said softly, seeing Guo Xuyang still with his eyes closed.
"Hmm? Where is this?" Guo Xuyang asked, feigning just waking up.
"This is more than three hundred kilometers in a straight line from our gold mine.
Last time, a survey team came here to explore and discovered significant gold reserves, but the geological structure was too complex, so they didn't dare to mine it.
They want to sell it to us. I'm not sure about it and wanted to ask for your help to take a look."
"Is that so? What are their terms?"
"Fifty million US dollars. This is the exploration fee. We will handle all other procedures ourselves."
"That's a bit much. Let's go down and take a look, and we'll discuss it later."
As Guo Xuyang said this, he had already surveyed the entire situation below.
The reserves were decent, but fifty million was indeed a bit high, especially just for the exploration fee.
If it included the ownership, fifty million would be more appropriate.
Moreover, not far from this location, there was a place with even better reserves.
Guo Xuyang planned to wait for a better price.
