Treasure Hunt Tycoon - Chapter 1587: Go Again
Li Du had his limits when he was doing things, and he made sure not to keep the party going until too late. It was just around midnight when the plane headed back.
The group of people was still drunk. Most of them have never had such a night and had no experience with having a high-altitude party. Therefore, they were very excited to have this opportunity and were trying to enjoy themselves as much as they could.
After daybreak, the ranch wedding ceremony began.

The wedding was simple. They went to the church in town first, where the priest officiated the wedding ceremony. Hans and Barbara held hands and said the wedding vows.
Next, they all went back to the ranch together to enjoy the rich buffet reception. Almost all the food served at the wedding reception came from the ranch, so it was all served in big portions.
At the end of the wedding, Li Du as the best man went to the groom, raised his glass and said, “Hey, Big Fox, I thought I would never see this day in my life. Miraculously, this day came earlier than I expected.”
“It was all God’s plan,” Hans clinked his glass with Li Du’s.
“Have you suddenly become religious?” asked Li Du.
Hannah was a devout Christian, and many people in Flagstaff were as well, but Hans was not.
Hans laughed and said, “I once swore that if God could arrange for me to meet a girl who would set my heart on fire, and if she felt the same about me, I would believe in his existence. You know, brother, there are seven billion people in the world, and the chance of meeting a girl whom you love and who loves you back is small, so when that happened, I began to believe in God.”
Li Du looked at him and said, “I don’t know if anyone has told you this already, but I doubt that you are the same Hans Fox that I knew. You are like a totally different man!”
“Maybe God changed me,” laughed Hans.
Li Du changed the subject and asked, “Where are you going for your honeymoon?”
Hans said, “I wanted to take Barbara on a tour of America. You know, she grew up in Riverdale and never went out of the town before. Although it was a wonderful way to grow up, I want to let her see the wider world outside.”
Upon hearing this, Li Du waved his hand and said, “Why do you want to travel around the United States then? Take a trip around the world, starting from the southern hemisphere, where the weather is fantastic right now.”
Now Hans was much calmer. He was like a different person with much less glib, stubbornness, and self-opinion.
He accepted Li Du’s suggestion and said, “Ok, we’ll go to the southern hemisphere then. Would you like to come with us? You’ve got enough money, right? You don’t have to work too hard, you should enjoy life and relax for a change.”
Li Du said, “Not yet, but I’ll soon do that. When you get to Seagull Island, Sophie and I will probably tag along.”
At the mention of Seagull Island, Hans laughed, obviously remembering some of the good old days.
He asked about the development of Seagull Island, and Li Du told him to take Barbara and see it for himself.
Seagull Island had changed so much that Hans would be surprised if he went there now.
Li Du stayed in Riverdale for another week, working with Sophie to help Hans and Barbara plan their tour.
During that time, he made several phone calls to Luo Qun, who was still on her way traveling around the world, and asked her for advice. She was now considered an expert in this.
After leaving Riverdale, he flew to Myanmar again, this time for Wooku Town.
He was carrying a lot of cash this time. Li Du had promised to invest in the infrastructure of the town, and one of his first investments would be in a school.
Because of its remote location and poor road conditions, it has been difficult to solve the problem of children’s education. Of course, there were only a few students in the town. Usually, it was Maung Kyaw Zin who was in charge as their teacher of all subjects and helped them in their early-stage learning.
The schools Li Du invested in were small, but they covered both primary and secondary education so that the children in Wooku Town would be able to complete basic education in the future.
Maung Kyaw Zin was pleased that Li Du had fulfilled his promise so quickly. Li Du, too, was pleased that he had got what he wanted from the vein of Mount Dena.
Taking a large stone from the lode, he left a hundred million Kyat for Wooku Town, which was a first-phase investment in the schools. This money would cover the building costs and buy some teaching materials.
The second phase of the investment was a slower one. The town would hire teachers, buy many educational supplies, and formally build a fully functional school.
Looking at a large sum of money transferred into the account, Maung Kyaw Zin could not help but sigh. “Fortunately, your enemy in Hpakant broke the copper pot and stove. Otherwise, I would have made a big mistake and ruined the future of the town!”
Li Du was shocked and said, “Do you know the identity of the man who attacked me that day?”
Maung Kyaw Zin smiled and said, “I sent someone to Hpakant to check your information. Don’t get me wrong, Boss Li. I just wanted to know more about you. You know, haha, one shouldn’t have the heart to harm others, but must be vigilant so as not to be harmed himself.”
Li Du finally understood that Maung Kyaw Zin had misunderstood him. He went to Hpakant to ask about him, probably heard that he provoked many people, and thought those people came to Wooku Town to attack him.
It was not unlikely for him to think so because Wooku Town was not so far away from Hpakant, and he knew the situation of Hpakant. He was a cautious man and did not trust strangers.
In this way, it was good that he went to investigate, and Li Du’s suspicion was removed. Otherwise, if he thought that Li Du was the one who caused trouble, both sides would have had conflict.
However, he never thought of this matter earlier, mainly because he had confidence in the secret legacy of the copper pot and copper stove. He believed that no one but himself had ever known about the power of the copper pot and stove before this.
After completing the first round of investment in Wooku Town, Li Du would go on a trip to Hpakant to meet with Da Mao, Zhong Dapao and others.
Maung Kyaw Zin was very scrupulous. Although he accepted Li Du’s investment, when Li Du was leaving, he checked the party’s luggage as they prepared to travel.
Li Du had no objection to this. No matter how meticulous the search was, the rock he took was hidden in the black hole space.
This piece of ore was the objective of him coming to the mine in Dena Mountain, and he had at first thought of nothing but this one stone. None of the other jade veins caught his interest.
Now that Maung Kyaw Zin took over the Dena Mountain in the name of Wooku Town, Li Du asked Godzilla to bring a few trusted men along and slowly mine the vein. No one but he knew that there was a jade vein in that location.
He would not make the jade known to the public. It would be quietly transported in the black hole space and handed directly to Cole to process, and the whole transaction would be quiet and unnoticed.
Now Zhong Dapao and his men had stopped their work. Their primary task now was to help Da Mao investigate the matter of his family, and they had found some clues too.
Li Du stayed in the Chinese village for two days and left again. This time he returned to the United States. He was not planning to go to Myanmar again for some time.
