Chapter 68: Three Billion Emeralds
When it comes to Myanmar, many people's first reaction is nothing more than jade, gambling stones, drugs, and the chaotic Golden Triangle. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Myanmar is a Southeast Asian country, bordering China's southwest border in the northeast, mainly in agriculture, with relatively backward productivity and uneven economic development levels. Naturally, the national standard of living is also extremely low, and a monthly income of $300 is already considered a high-income group.
But in general, there are still some cities that are relatively developed.
Take, for example, Mandalay.
Mandalay is the second largest city in Myanmar, located in the north-central region of Myanmar, with a long history, was the former capital of several Burmese dynasties, and also gathered a large number of overseas Chinese, the number of overseas Chinese accounts for about 30% of the city's total population.
Mandalay Airport, on the other hand, is the second largest international airport in Myanmar and mainly serves the surrounding cities centered on Mandalay. Located 35 km south of central Mandalay city center in central Myanmar, it takes 1 hour to drive from the airport to the city center. Most of the airports are domestic routes from Myanmar, and international flights are only to Kunming in China and Bangkok in Thailand.
So Chen Zhengqian needs to fly from Guangdong to Kunming first, and then transfer from Kunming to Mandalay. Speaking of which, this is Chen Zhengqian's first time on a plane. Except for being curious at first, I was very calm later.
When I arrived at Mandalay Airport, it was already half past one in the afternoon.
When Chen Zhengqian walked out of the airport, he saw a tall and thin young man in the crowd, holding a large sign with the three characters "Chen Zhengqian" written in Chinese. guessed correctly, it was the person sent by Zhou Xinxin to pick him up. So he walked over.
When the young man saw Chen Zhengqian coming over, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he nodded: "Mr. Chen Zhengqian, is it? Hello, I am appointed by Zhou Shao, and when you are your guide in Myanmar, you call me Xiao Zhao." I am responsible for all your travel arrangements in the past few days, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask, Zhou Shao said, all your requirements, we must meet them as much as possible. ”
Chen Zhengqian said that he had no opinion: "Well, I don't have any opinion, then let's go out first." ”
"Okay, Mr. Chen, please come with me. Xiao Zhao respectfully led the way for Chen Zhengqian.
A business car parked outside the airport, comparing the surrounding Santana, Wranglers or small trucks, attracting the attention of many people, and Chen Zhengqian couldn't help but look at it twice. It seems that the Zhou family still has a lot of strength on the side of Myanmar.
But this time, even they couldn't handle it, and it was a bit tricky to think about.
Forget it, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, let's see the situation first.
Xiao Zhao hurriedly went up to help Chen Zhengqian open the door of the back compartment, and he sat in the passenger seat.
He gave the driver an address, and the driver nodded, started the car, and slowly drove out.
Xiao Zhao turned his head and said to Chen Zhengqian with a smile: "Mr. Chen just got off the plane, we have booked the presidential suite for you at the five-star hotel in Mandalay, the Sedona Hotel, please rest first, and we will go to see the goods tomorrow." ”
Chen Zhengqian thought for a while and waved his hand: "Forget it, don't be in a hurry to rest, it's only a little more than an hour's flight time from China, let's go and see the goods first." I didn't see anything, so I guess I couldn't sleep well tonight. ”
After all, it was $300 million in valuables, and he didn't dare to take it lightly, since he took over this business, even if it was for his $6 million payment, he couldn't afford to make a mistake.
Xiao Zhao's heart sank, and he deeply admired, this Mr. Chen is young, but he does things without leakage, no wonder he can be entrusted with a heavy task by Zhou Shao, it seems that he must be careful to serve well.
Hurriedly replied: "No problem, everything is according to your will!"
So the driver turned around and drove on another relatively remote and backward road.
Chen Zhengqian frowned: "How far is it?"
Xiao Zhao hurriedly replied: "In order to hide people's eyes, everything is placed in a dilapidated warehouse on the outskirts of the city, about thirty kilometers away from the airport, and it takes an hour to arrive." However, the headquarters has sent more than a dozen people to guard it, and there will be no problems. Mr. Chen is relieved. ”
Chen Zhengqian nodded, simply closed his eyes and recuperated, Xiao Zhao naturally didn't dare to disturb quietly, and the car was quiet all the way.
After a while, Xiao Zhao reminded loudly: "Mr. Chen, we have arrived." ”
"Hmm. ”
Chen Zhengqian opened his eyes, Mercedes-Benz stopped outside a dilapidated warehouse, there were no pedestrians in the surrounding villages, and the barren mountains and mountains were indeed hidden enough.
The door of the warehouse was closed, and Xiao Zhao went up and shouted a few words, probably because of a code or something, and someone inside opened the door.
Xiao Zhao trotted back again and said to Chen Zhengqian, "Mr. Chen, let's go in." ”
Chen Zhengqian nodded and followed Xiao Zhao into the warehouse.
The inside of the warehouse seemed very empty, there were two people guarding the gate, and there were two people walking around the door inside, and the ones in their hands turned out to be real guys.
Type 81 rifle, I'm a big!
Chen Zhengqian couldn't help but sigh, no wonder everyone said that the Golden Triangle was chaotic, and Nima's powerful firepower was actually a bunker!
I suddenly felt that as a citizen of the Celestial Empire, I was really happy to die, and foreign people were living in dire straits!
"What about the others?" Chen Zhengqian looked around, but there was no one else.
Xiao Zhao pointed to the warehouse inside: "They all live inside." ”
Chen Zhengqian nodded: "Let's look at the goods first." ”
"Mr. Chen come with me. Xiao Zhao took him into the house in the warehouse, pointed to a small container that was being placed inside, and said, "It's all in the container." ”
Chen Zhengqian looked at the container and said to a big man next to him, "Open it and let me see." ”
"Hmm!" the big man was silent, with a fierce look on his face, and said to the other person, "Open the door!"
The container door opened.
There are seven or eight cube-sized cube wooden boxes inside, in groups of two and two, neatly stacked.
"These are these?" Chen Zhengqian asked Xiao Zhao.
Xiao Zhao nodded: "Yes, everything is inside." ”
"Open them all and let me see!"
"This ......," Xiao Zhao hesitated.
Chen Zhengqian lowered his face coldly: "Don't let me see it, how do I know if there's anything inside." If you put a basket of rotten tomatoes in it, and when I bring it back, and tell me that something is wrong, and make me pay 300 million dollars, then wouldn't I die unjustly?"
Xiao Zhao was sweating profusely: "Yes, yes, you have a point, I'll let them open it." ”
Anyway, Zhou Dashao let himself listen to Chen Zhengqian, and he was responsible for the problem, and he was a small soldier, so it was better to listen to what he said.
Several big men hurriedly stepped forward and opened several wooden boxes, revealing the stones inside, some of which had not been unlocked, and some of which had been half solved, revealing the crystal green jade inside.
Chen Zhengqian doesn't have much research on jadeite, but he also knows that the color water is very good, at least it looks quite eye-catching.
Sure enough, it's a jade rough, so many boxes are there!
Chen Zhengqian looked at the red eyes, Ma Dan, no wonder those people would rather deduct it, this is 300 million US dollars, and it will not be a problem to make it into a finished product, at least ten times more!
Chen Zhengqian took a deep breath and said to them, "Well, you guys go out first, and I'll stay here by myself." ”
He didn't say anything, but stood there.
Xiao Zhao and the others looked at each other, so they had to walk out, leaving Chen Zhengqian himself.
After everyone went out, Chen Zhengqian closed the container door, and after making sure that no one could see it, he took out something from his warehouse.
Smirked: "Hehe, fortunately, I was prepared! With this thing, I'm afraid that this batch of jadeite won't be able to be brought back!"
