Since the stone was being dissected at night, the light was not very good, so there were a few unclear areas that were not rubbed in, but the outline of the entire jadeite was fully revealed. This piece of jadeite is about twenty-five centimeters high and is in the shape of a tree trunk. It is as thick as a thumb at the top and bottom. It has four forks in the middle. What is commendable is that at each fork, there is a red and yellow jadeite like an insect. . Put it under strong light, and from a distance, the entire jadeite looks like a bonsai dwarf tree surrounded by colorful light bulbs. Through the white crystals on the trunk, the whole body exudes an alluring charm under the light. brilliance. This shape looks like a strange tree with insects coiled around it. Wu Gang¡¯s eyes were completely attracted by this piece of jade, and he murmured to himself that there was still a trace of the style of a Burmese jade tycoon. "Wang Ding, I have a heartfelt request. I will carve this piece of jade. When it is completed, I will send it to you. It will still be yours. How about it?" Wang Ding is now in Myanmar. This thing If you take it back to China, there will be no problem carving it for Deng Rushan, but I'm afraid it won't be completed yet. Seeing that Wang Ding didn't speak immediately, Wu Gang paused and then said: "This thing is worth at least 100 million yuan if it is carved out. Brother, with your eyesight, I am convinced now" "100 million?" It can't be so expensive, it's just ice material" Wang Ding was a little surprised by the price Wu Gang said. "You don't know this, I would say at least 100 million. This kind of jadeite is really rare, and these jade bugs are the icing on the cake. The ice material is already very good. Brother, there are some People who play with strange stones only care about the shape and don¡¯t pay much attention to the materials" Wu Gang kept turning around this almost natural emerald tree, with a fanatical look in his eyes. "Okay, since Brother Wu has said so, I will stay and carve for Brother Wu." After Wang Ding agreed, Wu Gang called the RV driver who had been waiting outside. He carefully put the piece of jade in the car, and then sent Wang Ding back to the hotel, making an appointment to go to the mine at noon tomorrow. After entering the hotel, Wang Ding did not go to Qian Le's room, but went directly to Bi Yue. How should I put it? Last time, it didn¡¯t take two strokes to disarm it. Wang Ding hadn¡¯t tasted it enough yet. It would be like a fish that stole fish. Wang Ding didn¡¯t say much after he came. He carried Bi Yue directly to the bedroom, and the two of them chatted with each other. They all have ideas in this regard and are too lazy to take unnecessary steps. The sex had not started yet, and Wang Ding's direct penetration this time was also extremely violent. Bi Yue cooperated and enjoyed it with satisfaction, and for a while there was endless joy in the cabin. After finishing the work, Wang Ding reluctantly returned to his room. At this moment, something in Qian Le's hand shocked Wang Ding. "Qian Le, why did you pick up a gun?" Wang Ding was surprised when he saw that what Qian Le took out from behind his waist was a black Chengliang pistol, but there was still a trace of curiosity in his eyes. "Brother Ding, the security in Yangon and Mandalay is relatively good, but it will be chaotic when entering the mining areas, and those places are close to the China-Myanmar border. There may be drug smugglers with guns. Be safe." Qian Le said that he was looking for a gun if he had something to do. Qian Le knows that there are smuggled guns and guns in Myanmar, and it is not difficult to get one. Qian Le must have practiced for a long time, so he knows how to play with this gun. The surface of this gun is covered with black paint, but the handle, recoil slide, and trigger show obvious signs of frequent use. The black paint has been worn away, revealing the silvery white. It's iron-colored and feels heavy in your hand, weighing about a pound. Men always have a special preference for guns. Even a cowardly person will burst out with extraordinary courage after holding a gun. Although Wang Ding does not like to use violence to solve problems, he plays with this gun. , and there is also a feeling that I can¡¯t put it down. "This is the May 4th pistol. Although you can still find some more powerful weapons, it's not very convenient to carry, so let's make do with this" Seeing Wang Ding playing with the gun, Qian Le laughed and pulled Wang Ding away. He took the gun in his hand and taught Wang Ding the characteristics of the May 4th gun, how to load it and fire it, and where the safety was. The May 4th pistol is an imitation of the Russian-made series of pistols. It uses 51-type Knife-type 2G pistol ammunition. It adopts a barrel with a short recoil and is buried in the barrel. The locking method is a barrel swing type. The magazine capacity is eight rounds. The whole gun is made by the gun. It consists of a tube, an upper section cover, a lower section cover, a re-entry device, a trigger part and a magazine. The May 4th-style pistol is manufactured in ChinaWeapon, used for more than half a century, this gun can shoot through 3 mm thick steel plate, 1 meter thick wooden board, 6 cm thick brick wall at a distance of 2 meters, and can adapt to combat at a distance of d meters For the needs of self-defense weapons, it belongs to the powerful army|hand|gun. In 1967, there were many factory numbers of Type 54 pistols. Not only the army and police were equipped with this type of gun, but even the security departments of some large companies also used Type 54 pistols. "Qian Le, here's a gun. Take it." After Wang Ding played with it for a while, although he was reluctant to part with it, he still handed the gun to Qian Le. After all, Qian Le found it. Qian Le waved his hand, magically pulled out another gun from his body, and said, "Brother Ding, put that in your handbag for self-defense. I also have one myself" "Holy shit, you The kid still has one, it¡¯s a good feeling.¡± ¡°One won¡¯t do, we have to take care of each other. Going to Savage Mountain this time is very dangerous, so we must be prepared for everything.¡± Qian Le said and took out five more. The magazines are all filled with yellow bullets. It seems that there are quite a lot of smuggled guns in Mandalay. "I also bought this." As Qian Le spoke, he opened his black bag and took out a black iron egg from it. He tossed it in his hand and saw the hair all over Wang Ding's body. It exploded. "Isn't this a grenade? Did you buy this?" Wang Ding was really shocked. Have you ever played with grenades and tossing pumpkins? If this is accidentally detonated. I met the Lord of Hell myself. They all have a big word "injustice" on their heads. Qian Le nodded seriously and said: "Brother Ding, if we are just going to the mining area, there is no need to prepare these things, but if we are going into the jungle, it is best to be well-equipped and prepared" Looking at Wang Ding looked like he was trying to avoid him, and Qian Le chuckled. Said: "This is the American n68 grenade. It has better performance and is also very safe. Brother Ding, you don't have to worry about it detonating automatically. Moreover, this grenade can be used for both offense and defense. It can also be used for Exploded. ¡°I also bought a few plastic bombs.¡± When Wang Ding heard the name of plastic bombs, he felt uncomfortable all over. This equipment was indeed a bit creepy. As for Wang Ding, he couldn¡¯t sleep well that night. . Because it was too late to remove the stone last night, it was noon the next day. Wu Gang's call just came over, although Wang Ding didn't sleep well. But he was still young after all, and he became energetic after a few hours of rest. Wu Gang, who came to pick him up, still had a tired look on his face. "Brother Wang, this is Professor Ma and this is Professor Liang. They are all geological experts I invited from China. They also helped me check out the jade mine this time" In the hotel lobby, Wu Gang gave Wang Ding He introduced two old men in their fifties. Although he had previously said that he wanted Wang Ding to see the mineral veins, he still trusted his connections and spent a lot of money to invite two experts from China. "After all, Wu Gang has invested nearly 300 million in the jade mine. It is impossible to put his hopes on a young man like Wang Ding. He can bet on stones but he may not be able to read veins. Wang Ding didn¡¯t try to guess what Wu Gang was thinking. His purpose of going to Pagan was also not the jade mine, but Wang Ding was also very happy to see two of his own people in a foreign country. Professor Ma and Professor Liang were very happy to come to Myanmar to inspect the jade mines. Both of them were studying the causes of the formation of jade, but because they had never been to the jade mines, the project had been stagnant. You know, the Myanmar government has always been very taboo about jade mines, and foreigners are strictly prohibited from entering and exiting. Including the northern Myanmar area of ??Myitkyina, it has been classified as a military restricted area and has never been open to the outside world. This time, I have the opportunity to enter. In the mining area, it is also the result of the Myanmar military government controlling most of the forces in northern Myanmar and Wu Gang's high-level efforts in Myanmar. Otherwise, it would be difficult for outsiders to enter. But then Wu Gang introduced several soldiers behind him, and Wang Ding realized that these people who dared to protect him on the surface should actually be monitoring the behavior of himself and others in the mining area. A group of people got into Wu Gang's RV and drove to the countryside. Originally, the only way to go from Mandalay to Myitkyina was by train. However, the distance of six to seven hundred kilometers would probably take dozens of hours by train, because Myanmar The train speed is still at the domestic level of the 1950s and 1960s. So Wu Gang used his connections to call a military helicopter from the Myanmar military. The RV drove directly to a military camp on the outskirts of Mandalay, surrounded by soldiers with guns. Wang Ding couldn't help but tighten the bag in his hand. There was a pistol there. If these soldiers checked it out, Don't knowThere must be some trouble. When looking at Qian Le next to him, Wang Ding calmed down a little. The old man was carrying the slightly worn backpack comfortably and looking around with a nonchalant expression. It seemed that he was not putting a bomb in the bag, but was going to a friend's house. The candy gifts I brought were average. Wang Ding now knows what it means to have a guilty conscience. In the past, he heard that people who broke the law and escaped often lived without food or sleep for years or even decades. At that time, Wang Ding didn't believe it, but now he has realized it. , although he didn¡¯t commit anything, he just had a gun in his bag, and he started to feel uneasy. Fortunately, no one asked to check the packages of Wang Ding and others from the moment they got off the car to the time they got on the helicopter, which made Wang Ding breathe a huge sigh of relief. Wu Gang, who followed Wang Ding into the helicopter, held a fifty- to sixty-centimeter-long wooden box in his arms, which contained Wang Ding's tree-shaped jadeite. He was going to take it home and carve it slowly. "Brother Ding, this is a rice-type military transport helicopter produced in Russia. It was produced in the 1960s and 1970s. It is an antique, but its performance is pretty good. It can seat more than 23 people" Qian Le looked at this helicopter. "A transport plane," he whispered in Wang Ding's ear. But when the Burmese military personnel arrived, Qian Le immediately stopped talking. "Wang Ding knew that before the Soviet Union was dissolved in the last century. Due to its global strategic position, a fleet was once stationed in the port of Myanmar. However, Russia later withdrew the fleet back to the country due to economic stress. However, many military facilities with Russian imprints were left in Myanmar. The speed of this Mi-Zhao military direct transport helicopter is about more than 300 kilometers per hour, which is not very fast. However, its advantage is that it has a large fuel capacity, a longer range than ordinary helicopters, and a large internal space. It's very sufficient. Wu Gang, Wang Ding, and the few people sent by the Myanmar military, there are seven people in the cabin, and it doesn't feel crowded at all. There is even room to lean down and take a nap. Ding could only think about it. When the helicopter's propeller rotated, the huge roar made several people in the cabin blush and open their mouths, except for those few. The performance of the Burmese soldiers and Wu Gang was normal. As for Qian Le, Wang Ding and the two professors, they were really miserable, and their eardrums seemed to be shattered. They originally wanted to continue chatting on the helicopter. Professor, after the helicopter took off, his face turned pale and he stopped talking. The wind outside the cabin blew into the cabin. Not to mention talking, even Zhang Xiadi could fill you up. The air smells like a tropical rainforest. Fortunately, the temperature in Myanmar in winter is above 20 degrees, otherwise everyone in the cabin would be frozen into popsicles. After leaving the military camp, it took about half an hour to feel acclimated. After a while, Wang Ding looked at the ground through the glass in the cabin, but everything he saw was tall trees and dense forests, and there was no scenery at all. It was the dry season in Myanmar, and those tall broad-leaved trees were not beautiful at all. It looked a little withered, and there were very few leaves on the trunk. After Wang Ding looked down for more than ten minutes, there was no one there, and it looked a little desolate. But now is the best time to mine jade in Myanmar, because when you enter. After the rainy season, the roads in the mountains will be very difficult to walk, let alone people, even livestock cannot pass through. Therefore, it is the busiest time in the mining area. The mountains in Myanmar are not particularly steep, but they are. Continuously, one peak after another, densely covered with jungle. Wang Ding believed that if he were thrown from here, he might not be able to escape in a year and a half. Looking at the towering giants below the plane. Tree, Wang Ding feels very incredible about the social form of Myanmar. Myanmar itself is close to the seaport, its geographical location is very important, and the inland is rich in gems and precious teak, but the Myanmar people are so poor. I don¡¯t know the root cause of this. where. After more than an hour, the helicopter slowed down and slowly stopped on a hilltop. Wang Ding thought he had reached the end of the hill, so he quickly unbuckled his seat belt and jumped out of the helicopter. Unexpectedly, his feet went weak. If I hadn't held my hands on the ground, I would have almost sat down on the ground. "This what kind of place is this? Isn't it Myitkyina?" Wang Ding looked around. There were dense forests everywhere. He couldn't help but look at Wu Gang. No matter how desolate northern Myanmar was, it was impossible not to see a single person. Bar. "No. We are only halfway there. The driver needs to take a rest. Come on, brother, have a drink of water." Wu Gang smiled and handed Wang Ding a bottle of drink. It is more appropriate to say that the pilot needs to rest than that the helicopter needs to rest, because after the helicopter stops, the pilot will be busy.When he got up, he was checking whether the various parts of the helicopter were functioning properly. You must know that this was an antique from thirty or forty years ago and could not support a flight of several hours. If something goes wrong in the sky, the people on the helicopter may be smashed to pieces before their parachutes open. However, the quality of this military facility produced by Polar Bear is still trustworthy. At least Wu Gang has ridden it many times. Nothing went wrong. Professor Ma and Professor Liang also supported each other and stepped off the helicopter. Their bodies were not as strong as Wang Ding's. Their faces were already pale. If they hadn't supported each other, they would have fallen to the ground. "You two, are you okay? I'm really sorry for making you two suffer. There are also mineral veins nearby, but we have to work harder and get to Pagan. I wonder if the two teachers can hold on a little longer?" Wu Gang looked When the two professors got off the helicopter, he hurriedly greeted them. He just wanted to reach the Myitkyina Pagan area as soon as possible, but he did not expect that the bones of these two professors could not withstand the turbulence of the helicopter. In fact, taking a train in Myanmar is probably not as good as this helicopter. It takes thirty to forty hours from Mandalay to Myitkyina, and the bumps along the way are even more severe. "It's okay, it's okay, I can persevere. I really didn't expect that the growing environment of the jade mine would be in a place like this. Hearing is believing, seeing is believing" "That's not true. Then you two have to work hard." " It¡¯s okay, it¡¯s okay.¡± Professor Ma waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that he was okay. The beauty of jade is well known, but the mining and growth environment behind jade is rarely mentioned internationally. The reason is that the Myanmar government is closed-door. This is just like the Qing Dynasty government in feudal society, which closed the country to the outside world. In the end, the only one who fell behind and was beaten was himself. The formation geology and landforms of jadeite have always been a topic discussed by domestic geologists. Now they have the opportunity to see the geological environment in which jadeite grows. Although the two professors are tired, their faces are still full of excitement. (To be continued)
