800. Lightning Ridge (4/5)

Toyota Badao left this sentence and then left.

Looking at this scene, Li Du was amused and laughed: "What's going on? We were warned before we entered the town gate?"

Brother Wolf was about to step on the accelerator and asked, "Catch up with them and teach them a lesson?"

Li Du waved his hand and said, "No, there is no need. Let's go to ours and go to the town first."

Due to years of gem collection experience, Lightning Ridge has been well built, and some of the buildings inside are very famous in Australia.

Li Du didn't know how the people in the car were here to find gems. There were also many tourists coming to Lightning Ridge for tourism. There were a lot of public waste ore sand in the town, and tourists could search for treasures at will.

These waste mineral sand contain black opals, but finding them requires excellent luck. It is much harder to harvest here than in a national park.

It was already afternoon. Li Du found a hotel, and after checking in, the group went in and had some rest first.

The boss saw Li Du with his pet and wanted to refuse, but the expressionless wolf brother and the burly and burly Godzilla walked in. Seeing this, he could only shrug and express helplessness.

Sophie took out a hundred yuan and handed it to the boss, saying, "This is the accommodation fee for our pets. If there is any pollution, we will compensate multiple times."

Originally, this was just a polite word. Ah Miao Sanxiao was very smart and well-behaved. They all knew how to use the toilet to use the toilet, and even pressed the flush button after the toilet.

But they now have an extra Alibaba. Alibaba does not have such an IQ, and it is still very small and cannot control the bowel movements. After entering the room, they immediately soaked their poop on the floor.

This made Ah Miao San Xiao very dissatisfied, and they still like to clean.

Ah Miao patted Ah Ah, and Ah Ah, as a younger brother, immediately rushed up and gave Ali a claw, grinning and scaring him: "Ah Woo! Ah Woo!"

Ali was so scared that he squatted on the floor with his legs aside, so there was more water on the floor.

When Li Du came out and saw it, he sighed helplessly, picked up Ah Ah and wiped his butt and put it on a chair, saying, "Dear, I have to buy a cage for Ah."

Sophie came out of the bathroom and said, "Why? It's just lacking training. Ah Miao, Ah Ah and Ganqian Noodles have never been in a cage."

Li Du thought to himself that this could be the same? These three have been transformed by Little Flying Worm. Each of them is monkey spirit and clever, with a higher IQ than a child, so of course there is no need to be put in a cage.

He went to bed for a night, and after waking up, he heard Sophie say, "I have to buy a cage for it."

There was a lot of urine or poop on the floor, and Ali looked at them with his innocent eyes as usual.

At this time, night was already falling, and Li Du took his group out for dinner and asked about the local situation.

Australia has a vast territory and rich ingredients, but there are not many types of dishes. It has been a while since Li Du arrived, but apart from seafood, I haven't eaten much other seafood.

However, if you like to eat meat such as steak and lamb chops, it will be delicious in Australia. The meat chops here are low-priced and have good meat quality.

If you don’t pick on the meat parts, you can eat meat and eat it in Australia even if you don’t spend money.

There is seafood to eat in the coastal areas and islands, but when you go to inland areas like Lightning Ridge, there is not much seafood left.

Li Du and others arrived on the street and saw many restaurants on both sides of the road, mostly with meat chops and other things.

Sophie chose a teppanyaki steak restaurant. The reason why she chose this is because his store is small and quiet. Li Du and his group were full when they entered. They tipped the boss more and they could bring their pets in.

There is nothing to be picky about in the shop, so Li Du chose some meat steaks and let the boss bake it.

The boss is a strong white man in his fifties. He has a lame leg and walks slowly and his personality slowly.

He brought the red wine before the meal to everyone, and then saw Ali hiding in Sophie's handbag, and said strangely: "Are you from the zoo or the circus?"

Li Du smiled and said, "I understand what you mean, but we are just ordinary people, this is our pet."

The boss shrugged and said, "Have kangaroos as pets? To be honest, this is really creative."

After serving wine, he prepared barbecue chops in the kitchen. The kitchen of the small restaurant was leaning against the hall. Li Du and others turned their heads and could see the entire scene in the kitchen.

The boss took two thick pieces of meat steaks and placed them on the butter-rolled iron plate, and placed some fat oysters on the other side of the iron plate.

He grabbed a handful of salt and pepper, sprinkled it on the steak and oysters, grilled it for a while and poured some white wine on it, just like making a burger, adding oysters between the two slices of steaks.

The boss was very slow and the serving speed was naturally slow. In order to avoid arousing dissatisfaction among Li Du and others, he started chatting: "Are you here to play? Are you tourists?"

Li Du said: "That's right, do you have any recommendations?"

The boss pointed northwest and said, "There are some recommendations. You can go to the Opal Museum over there tomorrow, right on Madman Mountain."

Then, instead of introducing the Opal Museum, he introduced them to Madman Mountain, which is a local legend.

About thirty years ago, a miner came to the town to look for Black Opal.

But he did not follow the experience of his predecessors and did not choose to dig holes at the feet of various hills to look for gems. Instead, he mined at the top of the hillside and was ridiculed as a madman.

Due to the formation of opals, it is almost impossible to have gems on the top of the mountain, and they are usually in low terrain or underground.

However, after some hard work, the miner successfully mined the highest quality opal at that time, and bought the hill, named it Madman Mountain.

Crazy Mountain has produced many high-quality black opals, but now it has been hollowed out. After there is no gem resources inside, the boss sold it to the government, and the town government transformed it into a very modern opal museum.

"There are two castles that are also very interesting. There is a single prince castle at the end of the town. You can go and have a look. The single prince is a tough character and is also a role model for our miners."

The boss baked the first batch of meat steaks and brought them up, and then introduced the single prince.

Just like miners in other industries, the lives of Black Opal mining miners are difficult, and many people have set up many dreams for themselves in order to support them.

Some dreams are unrealistic, but the miners work hard to put them into practice.

The Single Prince Castle is one of its masterpieces. The boss introduced it: "It is a real castle. The Single Prince spent more than 40 years to build it with one person's strength."

"Believe me, he brought back a large stone from the mine every day, day after day, year after year to build the castle as a gift to his future wife."

"What's the result?"

The boss laughed: "The result? Haha."
