Chapter Seventy-Five: By the River
The first time he saw the Gobi quarry in Hotan, Wang Yangjue really opened his eyes.
In a large area of the whitening Gobi Desert, the excavator turned the ground with a shovel and shovel, and the stones scattered on the ground were picked up by the workers one by one, and from time to time they took water to wash it, and put the materials in a pile, waiting for them to be loaded and transported away.
Wang Wufan looked at the scene outside the car and shouted at his uncle, "Are you digging stones here?"
Uncle Wang said: "Well, there are a lot of things here, two thousand pieces per acre of land, dig them at will." ”
Wang Yang looked at the scene of people surging outside the car, compared to the vast Gobi Desert, a few hundred acres of land is indeed nothing.
"Can anyone pay to dig the ground?" Wang Yang asked.
Uncle Wang nodded: "Well, as long as the money is given, the local government will also fight, if no one invests, it will be difficult for the local government to develop on its own, and Hotan still has a very advantage." ”
Wang Wufan doesn't care about this, what he cares about is that picking up stones in a shady place under the sun will be sunburned to death: "Are we picking up stones here? I don't want to be here, it's too sunny." ”
Uncle Wang said: "I'm not here, I'm just taking you to see, let's go to the Yulan River." ”
After saying that, I drove the car and continued to drive forward, and when the road conditions were bad, it was really uncomfortable to bump people for more than an hour.
After arriving at the place, Wang Yang got out of the car and squatted to calm down, this is a river near the side of the mountain, surrounded by dense forests, the cool river water slowly flows down from the mountain, Wang Yang took off his shoes and walked barefoot in the cold river water: "Hiss~Ah, hiss~Ah, it's so cool, it's so cool." ”
Xu Qing said with a smile on the shore: "It must be cold, this is ice and snow meltwater, come up." ”
Wang Yang walked to the shore in a few steps, looked at the river about five meters wide, and warmed up with his cold feet.
Uncle Wang's voice came over: "There are usually fewer people here, and there are more products in the Gobi Desert, so I prefer to go there to find stones, this is a place to come for recreation, and there are also jade, but there are relatively few, but every time I come, I have a harvest."
Fortunately, the locals didn't understand the value of these things before, so this is still a relatively good place, jade, not as much as the Yulong River, but fortunately, the river itself is not big, and the middle is also to the knee position, and then downstream, that is, to the thigh, it is deeper in spring and summer, and now in autumn, it is much shallower. ”
Wang Yang, Wang Wufan, Uncle Wang, the three of them took down the barbecue grill in the car, meat and naan, and some cold vegetables, cold vegetables were put in the river, and the meat Xu Qing cut it slowly, Wang Yang and Wang Wufan followed the water, lowered their heads and looked for it slowly, and Uncle Wang didn't take long to come down.
Wang Yang stepped on the pebbles, took a wooden stick in his hand while pulling the stones, while carefully looking for the small river, between the fluctuations of the water, the sight is not very good, from time to time to pick up the stones in the shallow water area to see, almost all of them are pebbles, and there are only a few jade.
Wang Yang just lowered his head and looked for it, and he could find one or two pieces from time to time, but after looking at it, he threw it away, either there were too many fragments, or there were too many impurities, and others might be happy to pick up these stones after more than ten years, and the third-level stones were nothing to see, let alone so small.
I don't know how long it took, Wang Yang's neck was sore, and when he looked up, Wang Wufan and Uncle Wang were sitting together and talking, and Uncle Wang patted Wang Wufan on the shoulder, as if he was encouraging something.
Wang Yang shrugged: "Okay, I'm a poor dick who has never seen the world." ”
"Hey~" sighed, sat on the ground and looked at the forest on the mountain, Wang Yang found a stone to sit down, and stepped here with his bare feet, it still hurt.
Grabbing the stones beside him, he threw them into the river one by one, watching the stones fall into the water, Wang Yang suddenly wanted to float.
I found a few flat stones, took a look, and shook them hard, and three flowers bloomed on the water.
I found a wider place and did it again, this time with two...... Well, it can only be said that flowing water is not good to swim.
Looking at it, there is nothing fun around, and I don't dare to run far, there are wolves in the mountains.
In the distance, Uncle Wang and Wang Wufan seemed to have finished saying something, and Wang Yang also knew that Wang Wufan had something on his mind, but this kid was very tolerant and never told himself.
Although curious, Wang Yang didn't have much interest in his affairs, and told himself that he would listen to it, and forget it if he didn't say it.
I thought I should buy a mobile phone, but now it's too ostentatious to buy a mobile phone, forget it, let's talk about it later!
After glancing at the place where the car was parked and making sure that Xu Qing was not facing his side, Wang Yang walked behind a tree with a crooked neck, unbuttoned his pants and shhhh
People are far away, so whistling is no problem.
With a tremor of his body, Wang Yang, who had put on his pants, froze.
Looking at the small piece of stone that was washed out of urine under his feet, shining with the common white jade luster in the past two days, Wang Yang's forehead jumped a few times: Why did this rush out of a rough stone?
Picked up the stick that pulled the stone, and poked at the stone, anyway, it was his own urine, and he wouldn't feel too disgusting if he poked it around, and after digging for a while, Wang Yang dug out all the stones.
"Good fellow......" Looking at a stone as big as a four or five-year-old child, Wang Yang didn't know what to say.
At this time, I didn't care about whether I peed or not, so I started directly and lifted the stone hard, and after all the stones were unearthed, Wang Yang pushed hard, and the stone turned over and smashed to the ground.
The movement of the stone when it hit the ground made Wang Yang's heart ache: "Hold the grass, don't smash it." ”
There are still three or four meters away from the river, Wang Yang estimated the distance, held the water and splashed it there, after more than a dozen times, and then walked over to see, most of the entire rough stone was blue-black stone skin, which was washed by the water, leaking out of its original appearance.
I roughly measured it by hand, the length of Wang Yang's one tie is 21 centimeters, the length is a little more than five ties, about a little more than one meter, the widest place has three bundles and two fingers, a little more than sixty centimeters, considering the uneven surface, the actual width may be narrower, and the height is ...... Well...... There are two and a half bunches in the thickest place.
Wang Yang shouted in the direction of Wang Wufan: "Wang Wufan, come here, I have found something good." ”
Wang Wufan was sitting in the shade of a tree thinking about something, and vaguely heard someone calling him, and looked over along the voice: "Hold the grass, why did this guy run so far." ”
Seeing Wang Yang's excited appearance, Wang Wufan trotted over and asked, "What's wrong?"
Wang Yang pointed to his feet: "Look, look, what is this?"
Wang Wufan glanced at it: "Stone." ”
Wang Yang encouraged: "...... Wipe your eyes and look again. ”
Wang Wufan looked at it twice: "Hehe, you don't want to say that this is jade!"
Wang Yang snapped his fingers excitedly: "Bingguo, hit it right, look at this." ”
Wang Yang pointed to the exposed jade on the other side and said, "Look at this, look at this." ”
Wang Wufan squatted down suspiciously: "...... Hold the grass, really, where did you find it?"
Wang Yang pointed to the crooked-necked tree, Wang Wufan looked over and saw that there was an empty stone pit next to the tree.
Wang Wufan looked at Wang Yang's smug appearance, and couldn't help but struck: "I don't know how many grades it is, what are you happy about?" Maybe it's good at this point, it's all cracks, or it's all impurities." ”
“…… You crow's mouth, come on, take a hand, we'll carry this into the river. Wang Yang said.
"What's in it for me?" Wang Wufan asked.
"MP3 buys you two, one listens, and the other smashes to play, how about it?" Wang Yang suggested very pertinently.
"Hmm...... Deal. Wang Wufan said.
"One, two, three, ......"
"Wait, the hand slipped. ”
“…… Okay, no?"
"Alright, come on!"
"Okay, I said one, two, three, up, let's hold it together, you drop, understand?"
"Don't be verbose, hurry. ”
"Okay, come, one, two, three, ......"
"Oh, hold the grass, this stone can't be grasped steadily. ”
"Hmm...... Let's go over it. ”
"Good. ”
"Lift it lightly!"
"Good. ”
"Force...... Hey, hey, let it go, don't lift it over and leave it alone!"
"I don't care if you talk about it anymore. ”
“…… mp3。 ”
"your mp3, don't want the old paper. ”
“…… I shut up. ”
Finally pushed to the river, Wang Yang picked up the water and wiped it, just wiped it all, Uncle Wang's car drove over: "What's wrong?
Wang Wufan immediately pointed to Wang Yang's jade material and said, "Uncle, come and see, Wang Yang has picked up a rough stone." ”
Uncle Wang looked at Wang Yang, who was wiping stones, and got out of the car with a high-powered flashlight, in Wang Yang's expectant eyes, Uncle Wang glanced at Wang Yang complicatedly: "It's jade, but this part shouldn't be." ”
Uncle Wang made a gesture in the place with the most stone skins, and Wang Yang felt that he had drawn about one-third of the rough stones into it, and his heart was also cold by one-third.
Hold the grass, before you started, you scratched half of me, what kind of trouble is this?
Seeing that Wang Yang's face was not good, Uncle Wang said with a smile: "Don't be dissatisfied, you kid, this rough stone is estimated to be more than 80 kilograms, and the texture of the exposed is good. ”
Wang Yang touched his face and said embarrassedly, "Is your face so obvious?"
Wang Wufan gloated and said: "Quite obvious. ”
"Wait, I'll turn the car around," Uncle Wang said.
The jeep turned around and slowly reversed.
"Here, take the handle, carry it to the trunk, one, two, three, on. Uncle Wang carried the rough stone into the trunk.
Wang Yang asked worriedly, "Uncle Wang, you won't break your car, right?"
Uncle Wang: "It's okay, it's not the first time I've loaded stones." ”
Back to the place just now, Wang Wufan told Xu Qing about Wang Yang picking up a large original stone.
Xu Qing ran to the trunk to look, and let out exclamations from time to time.
"Wang Yang, sell this material to our company, and the price will definitely be given to you. Xu Qing said happily.
Wang Yang said embarrassedly: "This ...... I'm not ready to sell yet.
When I want to sell, I must notify Sister Xu Qing as soon as possible.
Besides, this hasn't been cut yet, Uncle Wang said that most of it may be stones, and I can't let Uncle Wang suffer!"
Uncle Wang smiled: "It's okay, it's okay, when do you want to get rid of it." ”
Wang Yang gave a thumbs up: "Uncle Wang is magnificent, long live understanding." ”
After eating the naan barbecue and cold vegetables at noon, Wang Wufan also went to find the stone seriously, because just now Uncle Wang said that if the texture inside is the same as the outside, he is willing to buy it for 5,000 yuan a kilogram.
Wang Wufan roughly calculated, ten kilograms is 50,000, and half of 40 kilograms is 200,000.
200,000 is a big number for Wang Wufan, who is currently a student and his family is poor and raising children.
Wang Wufan said in his heart: I want to be financially independent, I want to be independent in life.
With this great belief, when he was about to go home, Wang Wufan really found two pieces, one black jade and one green jade.
Moyu is the size of a head, part of it is white jade, Wang Wufan saw the white jade and came back, and after coming back, Uncle Wang told him that most of this piece is black jade.
The size of a green jade palm, with two distinct herringbone cracks.
Wang Yang had good luck in the afternoon and found eight pieces, but most of them were as big as walnuts, the small one was only the size of a Go piece, and the big one was bigger than a fist.
