Chapter 107: Gambling on Jade Mines
At the same time that Qinglong Daoist was healing the Dragon King, Yun Xi finally arrived at XJ's Wushi Airport, and when he walked out of the airport waiting room, he saw a middle-aged man outside holding a sign with his name written on it, so he hurriedly walked up and talked with the middle-aged man. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
And after the middle-aged man saw Yun Xi, a slight expression of disappointment appeared on his face, and Yun Xi immediately guessed that he might be too young, which made the middle-aged uncle a little less convinced of his ability. So he smiled and said, "Brother Xu, thank you for coming to pick me up, when I came, Master Lin told me that this jade mine is very important to your Maoshan faction, so I will also carefully investigate whether there is a large amount of jade stored in this jade mine." ”
The middle-aged uncle's name is Xu Maocai, he is an authentic businessman, after listening to Yun Xi's words at this moment, his face is a little better, and he also believes that Daoist Lin Hong will not deliberately send a young man to fool him, after all, this jade mine is related to the future development of the Maoshan faction.
At this time, I heard him say: "Brother Yunxi, you are the guest invited by the master, I have received a call from the head yesterday, he asked me to receive you well, so I also booked a room for you in the best hotel in Wushi, let's rest in Wushi for one night, and let's leave for Hotan District early tomorrow morning." ”
Yun Xi nodded, he was still a guest when he first came to XJ. At dawn the next day, Yunxi got on Xu Maocai's off-road jeep and drove towards Hotan District, which is about 1,000 kilometers away from Hotan District, which is located in the southernmost part of the XJ Uygur Autonomous Region, with the Kunlun Mountains and the Karakoram Mountains in the south, deep into the hinterland of the Takrakan Desert in the north, and Jimo County in Bayingolin MG Autonomous Region in the east, Yecheng, Maigaiti and Bachu counties in the Kaye region in the west, Shaya and Awati counties in the Aksu region in the north, and XZ Autonomous Region in the south.
Xu Maocai and another driver took turns driving, and it took nearly a day to reach his place in Hotan District. After Yun Xi got out of the car, he ate some random things, and then freshened up before he said, "Brother Xu, is your jade mine far away from here?" ”
Xu Maocai immediately replied: "It's not too far, it's at the stream of the big mountain in front, but this mountain road is a little difficult to walk." Brother Yunxi, you must be a little tired after a day's ride, why don't you rest here first, I will invite you to eat the roasted whole sheep, which is a specialty here, in the evening, and then we will enter the mountain early tomorrow morning. ”
When the two were talking, they saw a staff member next to Xu Maocai walk in and say to him: "Mr. Xu, that Jade Lord has come to buy your mine again, and he said that you are not losing too much by selling it to him now, if it is really time for you to take the initiative to transfer it, then the price is not the current price." He also said that you should think about it carefully, otherwise you may really lose all your money by then. ”
Xu Maocai's face couldn't help but change when he heard this, but he still said: "You go and tell the jade prince, just let me think about it for a few days before replying to him, and at the same time, you also let the workers in the mine work hard for a few days, if there is really no large amount of jade found in it, I can only transfer this jade mine." With that, he sent the staff member out.
At this time, Yun Xi asked, "Brother Xu, who is this Jade Prince?" Why would he be so kind to buy your mine? ”
"This jade prince's surname is Jin, his ancestors were mining jade here, and seventy percent of the jade in Hotan District came from him, so everyone also called him Jade Prince. But he didn't have any good intentions to buy my jade mines, he just wanted to get more profits from my jade mines. Although I still don't know why he took a fancy to my jade mine, I have a hunch that there will really be a large amount of jade coming out of my jade mine, but I haven't found out where this jade is hidden yet, so Brother Yunxi, I can trust you with this jade mine, I believe that the master's vision will not be wrong. ”
Yun Xi smiled bitterly and thought; I don't know where this jade will be hidden, I just gambled on the jade rough, but I really haven't tried this gambling on the jade mine, I have to go to the jade mine to see it myself.
Yun Xi thought of this and said: "Brother Xu, it's still early now, why don't we go to your mine and have a look, the sooner you know the result, and the sooner you make your plans, what do you think?" ”
Xu Maocai thought about it and agreed with Yun Xi's opinion, and when Yun Xi and Xu Mao came to the entrance of the jade mine, Yun Xi asked again: "Brother Xu, how deep have you dug this jade mine?" ”
Xu Maocai replied with a bitter face: "I have been digging this jade mine for thousands of meters, but only a small part of the jade has been dug out, and this jade is not enough to pay my mining fees and labor costs." ”
Yun Xi nodded at this moment, and after putting on his helmet, he walked into the mine with Xu Maocai, Yun Xi kept looking around as he walked, and at the same time he also recited the nine-character mantra in his heart.
Just as they were about to come to the end, Yun Xi vaguely saw some faint points of light appear on the wall on the right, and he couldn't help but be alert immediately.
When he stopped and touched the wall with his hand, he immediately felt a trace of spiritual power pass through his palm and into his body, making his whole body feel refreshed, and at this moment he finally understood something. It seems that this Xu Maocai is really right, there is really a large amount of jade stored in this jade mine, but this Brother Xu's bad luck has made him dig the direction of this stored jade nearly ten meters away.
At this time, Yun Xi looked around again, and then said, "Brother Xu, it won't be a problem for you to let the workers mine towards this wall, right?" ”
Xu Maocai also stepped forward and checked it, and said, "No problem, just build a few supports here, and I'll call the workers to mine." Brother Yunxi, are you sure that there will be jade behind this wall? ”
Yun Xi smiled and said, "Just dig up this wall, won't you know?" I estimate that it will take tens of meters to dig to a depth to be able to dig up the jade. ”
"Is it true, Brother Yunxi, will there really be jade behind this wall? Now that my jade mine has finally been saved, I said that my hunch has always been very good, and this time it seems that I am really lucky. Thank you, Brother Yunxi, you have done our Maoshan faction a great favor, hahaha. ”
Yun Xi still said cautiously at this time: "Brother Xu, let's not be in a hurry to be happy first, let's celebrate after the jade is dug up." ”
Xu Maocai regarded Yun Xi as his savior at this moment, he nodded and obeyed whatever Yun Xi said, and soon the workers gathered at this wall, and Xu Maocai let the workers mine according to the position pointed out by Yun Xi. But Yun Xi consciously withdrew from the mine, he knew that what he had to do had been done, and the rest depended on how much jade Xu Mao could mine.
When he returned to Xu Maocai's residence, he walked directly into the room arranged for him and rested. But just when he was sleeping in a daze, he heard a knock on the door, after he opened his eyes and opened the door, he saw Xu Maocai standing outside the door and said to him excitedly: "Brother Yunxi, we have found jade, and it is a large amount of jade, now my jade mine has finally survived the crisis, and the head of the sect also sent me a sum of money, let me continue mining, this time our Maoshan faction finally has the materials to learn and make talismans, this is all the credit of Brother Yunxi." The head of the house said on the phone just now, if Brother Yunxi has any needs, please feel free to speak, as long as I have it here, you can take it away. ”
Yun Xi also laughed at this time and said: "Brother Xu, congratulations on your jade mine finally mined jade, if you really want to give me something, why don't you give me a piece of jade and let me take it back as a souvenir." ”
After Xu Mao heard Yun Xi's request, he agreed without hesitation, because he already knew just now that the jade stored in his jade mine was at least more than a hundred tons, and Yun Xi wanted a piece of jade to take away, which was not a problem at all, so he happily agreed.
In fact, Yun Xi also had his own plans for this piece of jade, when he found those jade stones in the mine, he sensed that there was a strong spiritual power fluctuation in that pile of jade, and he immediately remembered that he had heard Master say that there is also chalcedony in jade, but this kind of jade containing chalcedony is very rare, maybe only one can be found in tens of thousands of jade. And this kind of chalcedony can not only strengthen the body for martial arts practitioners, but also improve cultivation at the same time, which is why Yun Xi wants that piece of jade.
At this time, Xu Maocai was about to ask someone to carry a piece of jade to Yun Xi, but Yun Xi said, "Brother Xu, can I go to your mine and pick a piece of jade to bring back?" Don't worry, I only need a small piece of jade, and I will never want you too much jade. ”
And Xu Mao couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Brother Yunxi, as long as you can move it, you can as much as you want, I have hundreds of tons of jade there, you can take it as you like, hahaha." ”
Just when the two were laughing, the jade prince also received a report from his own people, and he immediately sighed and said: "It seems that I really underestimated this Xu Maocai, but I didn't expect that he finally found those jades, I also went to see the jade mine at the beginning, and I saw at a glance that a large amount of jade must be mined in that jade mine." Because according to the records of the elders of our Jin family, the geographical location and orientation of that jade mine are very good, and it is also the best place to produce jade. It's just that Xu Maocai didn't find the right direction of mining at the beginning, so he couldn't dig out the jade for a long time, I thought he would give up this jade mine, so I proposed a transfer plan to him, but who would have thought that he would finally lose it and get it back, it seems that this guy's luck is really good. ”
