Chapter 345 . Atay
"Uncle Zhu, I still don't understand, how fine are these ores?" Liu Xiangdie asked.
"These are not ordinary ores, but the Burmese government's special selection of high-quality products, hoarded and sold after the resources of the mining area are exhausted." Zhu Zhenya said, "The craftsmanship in Myanmar is not good, but the craftsmanship of identifying jadeite rough is first-class. People have been watching ore since they were children, and they don't do anything else, and after watching it for so many decades, even if they are fools, they have practiced it. Can their carefully selected ores be bad? ”
"If it's such a good rough stone, it has already been bought out as soon as it enters the country, right?" Huang Wenbin asked.
"You don't understand this, the rough stone is good, everyone knows it, but no one dares to buy it from them." Zhu Zhenya explained, "The Burmese government has issued a killing order, and whoever dares to buy it should not go to Myanmar in the future, let alone want to buy goods in Myanmar." Laymen don't dare to buy it, insiders don't want to spoil the relationship, and this batch of rough stones has not been sold yet. ”
"It's inconvenient for those insiders to come forward to buy it, so it's good to just find a trust." Huang Wenbin didn't believe it. If you buy it and cut it and process it, who will recognize it?
"How can it be so easy, a guy who has never heard of it before suddenly buys a lot of jadeite? Who believes this? Zhu Zhenya said, "The jadeite rough industry is very exclusive, not an insider, and I can't understand it at all." It's not that there are no people who are looking for a trust to buy stones, but there are quite a lot, and if they don't work, they are all petty and buy one or two pieces, so as not to attract attention. Now those soldiers still have a lot of material in their hands. ”
"We're newcomers, and the Burmese government doesn't know each other, so it's okay to buy them?" Huang Wenbin asked.
"Yes, you haven't been to Myanmar at all, and it has nothing to do with that side, and it is understandable that you don't know the announcement of the Burmese government." Zhu Zhenya said, "Your jewelry store is not specialized in selling jadeite, and if you buy this batch, you don't need to buy it again for at least ten years." If you want to buy it in the future, I can help you get it, anyway, the stones on my side are not from formal channels, and the Myanmar government can't do anything about me. ”
After he heard the news, he originally wanted to raise funds to do a big vote and buy a bunch of jade rough stones from these defected soldiers, but he was not in a hurry to sell them anyway, as long as the news was covered up, the Burmese government would not find out about it. But if he is discovered, he will often go to Burma to make wood, although it is not life-threatening, heavy bleeding is inevitable, and maybe he will have to go to prison for a year and a half.
So Zhu Zhenya hasn't made up his mind yet, now he has a big favor to repay, and he has an idea, so he will give the opportunity to Liu Xiangdie and Huang Wenbin, first, to repay the favor, so as not to go to Myanmar desperately, and secondly, he can borrow their funds, which will not affect his timber business. In the future, if the Myanmar government wants to track him down, it will definitely not be traced to him. After they bought it, they took a fancy to which piece they wanted, and if they wanted to buy it from them, they would give this face in the future.
"How? This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! Zhu Zhenya said, "If you miss this village, you won't have this store." ”
"Is this batch of clear material or gambling material?" Huang Wenbin asked.
"Most of them are semi-clear materials, a small part of them are clear materials, and some are full gambling materials." Zhu Zhenya said.
"How much is it?" Huang Wenbin only cares about this.
"I haven't been to see it, and they won't show it all out to meet people." Zhu Zhenya said, "There are more than a dozen pieces of clear materials just taken out, among which there is a piece of Zhengyang green glass, which is very pure in color and large in size." Usually, if you want to buy it, it will cost at least six or seven million, but they only ask for two million, and they can bargain. If it weren't for the fear of retaliation from the Burmese government, he wouldn't have wanted to buy it.
"Those who defect are all outlaws, and it always feels a little dangerous to make a deal with them." Huang Wenbin said.
"What kind of outlaw, people have worked so hard to run out in order to live a good life after getting rich, who will die with you." Zhu Zhenya said, "It's better to see than to hear, if Boss Huang can't believe me, you can go and see it first." They live in Sheraton, and there will be no danger. ”
"Sheraton?" Huang Wenbin asked, "Our Sheraton here?" ”
"yes." Zhu Zhenya said, "They loaded the rough stone into a container and shipped it by sea. Originally, we were going to the big port, but the goods in the big port were piling up, and it would take a few days for the containers to be taken out. ”
If you go to a big port, the intermediary who rushed to hear the news has already divided the jadeite rough, and there are many gem merchants who do not deal directly with the Myanmar government in those places. That is, when I came to the provincial capital, there were relatively few people playing jade here, and the news was relatively closed, so the sales were not smooth for a while.
Zhu Zhenya was afraid that the Burmese government would know about it, so he didn't dare to go over, but only informed the address and room number. Just in case, Huang Wenbin brought ten people, two of whom were experts in jadeite, and the other eight were security guards, all of whom were of Captain Jin's level, and also hid anti-wolf spray, electric shockers, and telescopic batons.
Originally, Huang Wenbin thought that he was exaggerated enough, but as soon as Liu Xiangdie came, he immediately compared him. Liu Xiangdie brought more than 30 people, all wearing black suits and black pants, sunglasses, bulging pockets around their waists, and they didn't know what Lu Dao was hiding. When walking, they lined up in three rows, following behind Liu Xiangdie, how did they look like they were rushing to grab territory.
The Burmese deserters lived in a business suite, and before they could knock on the door and say the code, the door opened, and a skinny little guy came out and glared at them, saying in not very authentic Chinese: "Who are you?" What do you want to do? Don't mess around, there's the police station next door, and as soon as we call the police, the police will come right away. ”
Sure enough, he was not an outlaw, Huang Wenbin put his mind at ease, "Hello, I'm here to buy jadeite." ”
"Buy jadeite?" A smile immediately appeared on the man's face, "It turned out to be the big boss, please come in...... We have a small place here, so we don't need to bring so many people in, ten people will do. We're absolutely safe here, no problem. ”
Liu Xiangdie waved her hand, and the black-clothed people under her stood in two rows in the corridor, very neat, this time it didn't look like a fight, it turned into an underworld meeting. Huang Wenbin and Liu Xiang's father discussed it and brought five people in each. There were seven or eight people inside, all thin and small, with lunch boxes, beer bottles and ashtrays all over the floor, and a lot of jade rough stones scattered around.
"Hello two bosses." What came over was a middle-aged man with a very dark face, quite heroic, but unfortunately his body was thin and his feet were short, and he was decent when he sat on the chair, and he really didn't have any momentum when he stood up, "Our jade here is the best in Myanmar, and it is guaranteed to be worth the money." ”
"What is this general called?" Liu Xiangdie asked.
"I'm not a general, I'm just a captain, and now that I'm out, don't talk about the past." The man said, "You can call it Atai, but it's just a name." What do you call them? ”
"Hello Boss Atai." Liu Xiangdie said, "My name is Liu Xiangdie, and my friend's surname is Huang. We heard from a friend that you have a good jadeite here, so let's take a look. ”
"When everyone meets, it's just a deal, and the less involved, the better. Needless to say, the name or something, as long as there is a title. In our vernacular, Atai means sir. What are the names of the two of you, I don't want to know at all," Atai looked like he was rejecting people thousands of miles away, "After selling these jadeites and having money, we will immigrate to the United States or Canada, and we will never see each other again." ”
"What's so good about the United States and Canada, English is too difficult to speak, we finally learned Chinese, it's better to stay here, I think the prosperity is no worse than the United States and Canada, and it looks similar to us, more intimate." Someone next to me interrupted.
"Can the United States and Canada immigrate, can I immigrate here?" Atai snorted, "How can you last long without an identity." Besides, there are a lot of Asians in the United States and Canada, and many of them can speak our language, isn't it better than us to speak Chinese? As they spoke, they stopped speaking Chinese, and they didn't know what Lu Dao was talking about.
Fortunately, it didn't take long to stop, and Atai said to Huang Wenbin, "Let the two bosses laugh, don't gossip much, let's take a look at Jade first, I don't know what the two bosses like?" We have all kinds of jadeite here, red and green, big and small, all of them are fine. ”
"Don't be busy yet." Huang Wenbin said, "I want to understand a little bit first, your jadeite is illegal, right?" Will I have any trouble if I buy it? It won't be confiscated by the government, right? ”
"Of course not, we all have legal identities and these jade ores are also legal. Believe it or not. Atai took out all kinds of documents from his body, Myanmar passport, entry certificate, and exit certificate of jade ore, entry certificate, on the surface, the license is complete.
The experts brought by Huang Wenbin and Liu Xiangdie came forward to check the licenses, and one of the experts even called the customs to ask, and the documents were all genuine. At least on the surface, these jadeite rough stones are legal commodities and there will be no consequences after purchase. This is a little strange, Zhu Zhenya didn't say that.
"What I heard......" Huang Wenbin was about to say something, but Atai had already taken the initiative to confess.
"There are indeed people in Myanmar who want to target us, and there is a lot of fake news." "We are soldiers guarding the mines, we have been poor for the country for decades, we have suffered, we have lacked clothing, and we don't know how many thieves who steal ore have been killed by the road. But what did the state do to us! Even if the military salary is deducted, there is no way to guarantee us, and the firefight with the jade thief uses too many bullets, so we have to buy it ourselves! ”
