As Mathier's condition stabilized, the process of China's mission to South Africa also became much smoother.

Vice Premier Xiao and dozens of members visited several important cities in South Africa to see if there were any business opportunities for cooperation.

The inspection locations naturally include the location of the Ni Ye's two families investing in gold mines - Liberty Prefecture Province.

Because before going abroad, Ni Jingqiu gave Su Tao the opportunity to go to the gold mine to take a look, and Su Tao also took the opportunity to take a short leave to come to the gold mine jointly developed by the Ni and Ye families, and visited the situation here.

Also walking with Su Tao were Ji Xiangjun and a bodyguard from Zhongnanhai. The reason why Su Tao took Ji Xiangjun was mainly because he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of the ropes and that she would frame him behind his back again.

The working environment of the gold mine is worse than expected. At five o'clock every morning, you have to sit in a metal cage, descend to a depth of four kilometers underground, and then carry a thirty-kilogram tool bag and walk three kilometers in a dark and humid passage. Sometimes, the passage is too narrow and you have to climb forward. After arriving at the workplace, you need to work there for eight hours. The main work of the day is to use explosives to explode ore, drill ore with drill bits, and use iron shovels to mine ore. Gold mine accidents in South Africa are frequent, and more than one hundred miners die every year on average.

The person in charge of the gold mine here is a middle-aged Chinese man in his forties. Everyone calls him Uncle Hai. It is said that he was the squad leader of the vanguard squad of the Special Forces when he was young. He had ten Chinese people under him, mainly responsible for management work. Most of the mining workers were black people recruited locally.

The cost of hiring Chinese people is very high, with a monthly salary of more than 6,000 Chinese coins, while local black people have relatively low wages. If you give two thousand Chinese coins, many people are willing to work. For ordinary half-maturity workers, the monthly salary is only 5,000 Chinese coins.

When he came to a relatively simple wooden house, Uncle Hai made a cup of tea for Su Tao and the other two. Su Tao took a sip. The taste was filled with a smoky smell. He was a little uncomfortable, but he did not show it.

Uncle Hai’s attitude is quite kind, “Doctor Su, I heard you are going to Nanshidawang?”

"Yes, I'm going to meet Ye Sheng there. A friend of him was sick and wanted me to help with treatment." Su Tao did not hide it.

Uncle Hai lowered his voice and said, "I got the news. The young master of the Ye family found a mine there. Is it true?"

The gold mine in Liberty Prefecture Province was nominally developed by the Ni Ye family, but the Ni family took the dominance, and Uncle Hai was a member of the Ni family's camp.

"I don't know the specific situation. I just went over to help treat the disease." Su Tao replied with a smile. Although Uncle Hai is his own, the matter of diamond mine is more important and cannot be widely spread, otherwise it will cause great trouble to Ye Sheng.

Uncle Hai saw that he couldn't get anything out of Su Tao's mouth, so he didn't continue to ask questions. He smiled and changed the topic and said, "I heard that you encountered an attack a few days ago? This time I went to Nanshidawang, and there were many dangers along the way. I'll arrange a few brothers to escort you over."

"No need, you don't have much manpower here. If you send out personnel, it will affect normal operations." Su Tao quickly refused. He could feel that Uncle Hai was not saying it casually, but really wanted to help him, but was still a little moved inside.

Uncle Hai sighed and smiled bitterly: "I received instructions from the young lady yesterday. She repeatedly emphasized to me that you must protect your safety."

The eldest lady refers to Ni Jingqiu. Su Tao smiled and said, "I will thank her for her concern. As for you, you really don't have to be distracted to protect me. Ye Shengyou arranged someone to pick me up and send me to Nanshidawang, and there would definitely be no problem."

Uncle Hai was silent for a moment and nodded, "Okay, then I won't stick to it. Africa is a place full of opportunities, but it is also full of dangers. I have read some of your stories and can always turn dangers into safety. I believe there will be no problem this time."

"Then I'll lend you a good word." Su Tao said with a smile.

"In addition, there is one more thing, please ask for your help." Uncle Hai paused and smiled awkwardly with Su Tao.

"Please say!" Su Tao said, "As long as I can help, I have no choice."

Uncle Hai sighed and said, "You have also seen the situation of the gold mine. The conditions are very harsh. Not only are they filled with the pressure of life, but they are also constantly invaded by diseases. Almost every month, we will find that the miner is sick. You are a miracle doctor. I want to take the liberty to ask you to give us some help."

Su Tao understood what Uncle Hai meant and said with a smile: "If you don't take the initiative to tell me, I have this idea, and plan to give you a few prescriptions before leaving, which can enhance your physical fitness and easily cure it when encountering ordinary illnesses."

Uncle Hai's eyes lit up, "thank you, thank you."

"It's just a little effort." Su Tao thought about it, and suddenly his expression became solemn, and he solemnly told him, "Be careful to check the miners' physical condition regularly. Common diseases can be cured with drugs, but once some terminal illnesses are infected, they cannot be cured with current medical level."

Uncle Hai knew that Su Tao was referring to AIDS, and the black people in the gold mine were relatively open, and if they were not careful, they would cause major trouble. He nodded seriously and said, "I will pay attention."

Su Tao thought for a while and reminded: "I see that there are many women in the miners, so I should try to isolate the male miners from them."

Uncle Hai nodded and sighed: "Your suggestions are good, but it is difficult to implement."

"I know you have some difficulties. Gold mining requires profits, and you can earn more by reducing costs. Black women can pay less than black men. But everything has to be considered from the overall situation. I will tell Uncle Ni about this." Su Tao said with a smile.

"Well, then I'll thank you for all the employees who work in the mine." Uncle Hai said in a relaxed tone with a smile.

"We have to leave later." Su Tao opened the medical box and took out a few pieces of paper. "The visiting delegation will go back to Tswane later, so we can't stay alone for too long."

After saying that, he began to write several prescriptions, including preventing pneumoconiosis. During the gold mining process, due to the crushing of ores and the dust concentration in the operating environment, many workers do not know about occupational protection, and pneumoconiosis has a long onset cycle, is not obvious in the early stage, is very painful in the later stage and cannot be cured, so prevention is very important.

Now, Qihuang Charity is mainly providing free assistance to "pneumoconiosis patients". The number of pneumoconiosis patients in China is about 6 million, and this type of life is very painful. Su Tao has been working hard to help these patients solve their pain and create appropriate prescriptions.

Pneumoconiosis belongs to the category of "pulmonary impotence" in traditional Chinese medicine, and it was recorded in the pre-Qin era. Compared with Western medicine, traditional Chinese medicine has more advantages in treating pneumoconiosis and is established as a "promotion project for traditional Chinese medicine to go global". Combined with herbs that promote blood circulation, remove blood stasis, and invigorate qi and promote blood circulation, it is of great benefit to alleviate the condition.

Although the prescription written for Uncle Hai is not the final version of the Chinese patent medicine for pneumoconiosis, it has good results and can play a good preventive role.

"Please wait, I'll prepare some gifts for you." Uncle Hai walked outside the door and reminded his subordinates a few words.

Not long after, the subordinate returned and had a few more bags in his hand.

Uncle Hai handed the largest bag to Su Tao, and the other two smaller bags were given to Ji Xiangjun and the bodyguard, and said with a smile: "Inside is the souvenir I gave you."

"Can you see what it is on site?" Su Tao said curiously.

"Of course." Uncle Hai smiled happily.

Su Tao opened it and saw that it was a gold nugget of irregular shape. He said in surprise: "Golden head?"

"That's right, there's nothing to do with the gold mine, only this piece of gold." Uncle Hai was in a good mood when he saw Su Tao identifying the goods.

Gold ingots are pricey, dog heads are priceless, dog heads are naturally produced and have a certain weight. The crystallized dog heads are several times or even dozens of times higher than gold ore.

The piece given to Su Tao is more than 500 grams, and it is worth more than 100,000 yuan based on the price of gold. If it is at the auction, it may be sold for millions, which is extremely generous.

Of course, Su Tao knew very well that Uncle Hai would definitely be recognized by Ni Buwei for giving him this generous gift.

As for Ji Xiangjun and the bodyguard, they also got gold nuggets. Although they were not gold heads, the original gold ore with a high gold content was worth 20,000 to 30,000 Chinese coins.

On the way to meet with the visiting group, bodyguard Xiao Deng* started the car and said, "Team Leader Su, I can't accept the gifts given to me just now. They are too expensive. I feel like I'll make a mistake."

Ji Xiangjun also felt that it was a bit expensive, but women liked Jin Cancan’s things very much. I was really reluctant to let her go back.

Su Tao smiled and said, "It's okay, please accept it. It's not easy to come to the gold mine with me, just treat it as a hard work."

"Then this is a bad thing." Xiao Deng said with a smile, "If you need any help in the future, Team Leader Su, please give it a command."

Ji Xiangjun looked at Su Tao secretly and thought to himself that his level of winning people's hearts is quite high. Since he said so, he doesn't need to be polite.

The main Ji Xiangjun's positioning is very accurate now. He regards himself as Su Tao's servant. The master gives him some benefits. So what if the servant accepts it?

In fact, it is just an excuse to comfort yourself in the current situation.

Su Tao actually observed Ji Xiangjun from the side. This woman looked arrogant on the outside, but she seemed quite realistic on the inside. What should I say?

If there is any benefit in front of her, she will definitely not hesitate to accept the benefit.

Like most people, Ji Xiangjun can understand the principle of the prevalence of the weak and surrender to the strong, but he just pretends to be better.

Many men say that they must find someone to talk about their relationship when looking for a marriage partner, but in fact, most women in society need a house or a car, otherwise they would rather wait.

Su Tao did not reject such women too much, but just kept a secret. In the future, he would be careful and be careful about Ji Xiangjun. He also had to observe. If he felt it was not suitable, he should not keep her as his servant and be careful to raise foxes.
