Chapter 282: Pulse Exploration
Ma Youcai sighed when he heard this: "Mr. Xu's words are right, but after so many years of disorderly mining, both sides of the river have long been dug out of shape, and the river has been diverted several times, and it is now difficult to determine the specific route of the ancient river channel." How easy is it to find a vein? ”
Gu Shi said: "This is indeed not a simple matter, although it is a twenty-kilometer range on both sides of the river. But there is no instrument to detect this thing, otherwise there is no need to gamble on the stone, everyone will know what is inside with the instrument, do you still need to gamble? ”
"Who's to say it isn't!" Gu Shi's words immediately won Ma Youcai's approval: "Don't underestimate these twenty kilometers, there is no very good exploration method for jadeite, basically relying on experience, drilling and exploration where it is possible." You can't punch holes everywhere, can you? And how deep is the hole? That's not easy! ”
Xu Tao thought for a while and said, "Mr. Ma should also have his own exploration team, right?" ”
Ma Youcai said: "There is no exploration team, but some people in our company are responsible for looking for ore veins, but the main thing is to look for places where there may be ore veins, and then ask a professional exploration team to explore." This approach is almost the same for everyone, after all, the vein in the hands of the political axe has to be tendered, and the cost must be greater, if you find it yourself, you just need to go through the procedures, although it is inevitable that there will be a price, but it is much smaller. ”
Zhao Xinyun said strangely: "Xu Tao, you don't want to go to the ore vein, right?" Can you find the main line? ”
"It's hard to say!" Xu Tao said: "After all, the scope is too large, how can the veins be so easy to find?" ”
Ma Youcai couldn't help but ignite hope when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "If Mr. Xu is willing to try, our company is willing to invest ......."
Zhao Xinyun interrupted Ma Youcai's words and said: "Mr. Ma, Xu Tao's ability has also been seen, he wants to find a mineral vein, it must be the main ore vein, you just seem to be a little ...... to invest."
Ma Youcai smiled a little embarrassedly when he heard this: "This, I haven't finished my words yet, if I really find the main vein, Mr. Xu can naturally put forward conditions." However, in Myanmar, it is not so simple to mine jadeite. It's not just anyone who finds a vein that can be mined, you have to get the permission of the political axe, and our company still has an advantage in this regard! ”
Ma Youcai said the truth, although for many years, Myanmar jadeite has been in disorderly mining, but in recent years it has gradually been standardized, and the public market made by the Ministry of Geology and Mines is very revealing. Of course, Ma Youcai emphasized that this is also the meaning of being afraid that Zhao Xinyun will insert a lever horizontally.
In fact, Ma Youcai has thought a little too much, although Lingyun Jewelry has done well in recent years, and wants to go to Myanmar to mine jadeite, he does not have this strength for the time being, Zhao Xinyun just said this is nothing more than fighting for Xu Tao's interests, after all, Xu Tao has already rejected Ma Youcai, and he will follow here for the sake of his own face.
Xu Tao didn't continue the topic, but said: "Boss Ma, the price of winning this vein is extremely high according to what you say, if that's the case, I personally recommend that you give up." Now, why don't we go back and take a look at the stock in your warehouse? ”
Ma Youcai now trusts Xu Tao more, and hopes that Xu Tao can agree to help him find a mineral vein, I don't know why, he always feels that if Xu Tao agrees, it is very likely that he will find a big ore vein. But Xu Tao didn't say it, and he didn't want to force it, so he said: "It's okay!" Ms. Zhao also wants to take a look, and our company also hopes to have a long-term cooperation with Lingyun Jewelry. ”
……
It was already afternoon when I returned to Mandalay, and Ma Youcai invited Xu Tao and them to the company, and Hongxianglou's warehouse in Mandalay was not small, and a lot of rubble was piled up. These rough stones are produced in different pits, large and small, and of different quality, but as Ma Youcai himself said, most of them are pile head materials, and there are few pigments.
Xu Tao looked around, and finally found that the rough stone in one of the pits was not bad, which could be used as jewelry, but it was still a low-grade material.
Zhao Xinyun was obviously a little disappointed, although she still reached a verbal cooperation intention with Ma Youcai, but as a jeweler who specializes in high-end jewelry, she still hopes to find some high-end materials.
Lao Luo, a gambling stone consultant, comforted Zhao Xinyun, saying that she had returned with a full load on the public market this time, at least Lingyun Jewelry would not worry about high-end jadeite inventory this year.
Zhao Xinyun thought about it, but she seemed a little greedy, if she hadn't met Xu Tao this time, she might not have been able to get so many high-quality jade rough stones, not to mention, even if she got it, her 500 million funds would have to be spent, which is like getting so much material for nothing now, this is no longer satisfied, but it is really greedy.
Xue Shichao and the others were a little disappointed this time, mainly because everyone saw that Xu Tao was too easy to choose the rough stones on the public market, and when they saw so many rough stones, they always felt that they had another chance to make a big profit. But Xu Tao looked around, but he never chose any rough stones.
It's not that there is not a single stone here that can be gambled up, the key is that these rough stones in Hongxianglou are wholesale business. On tonal settlement. From Xu Tao's point of view, it is still possible to make money by buying these stones, but what is earned is the later processing money, and Xu Tao is not in the jade business. It can't be that effort. Naturally, there is no intention of making a move.
Ma Youcai remembered his promise, saying that he would let Xu Tao choose a piece of rough stone in his warehouse, and it would be regarded as a reward for inviting Xu Tao to see the ore vein.
Xu Tao thought for a while but said: "It's better like this, tomorrow Mr. Ma will lend me an off-road vehicle, and I will go out for a walk!" ”
Ma Youcai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he immediately put on a smile and said: "This is naturally no problem, the car is there, but if you want to go far, I'm afraid it's not safe, do you want me to send someone to follow?" ”
"No, I'm just going to spin around!"
Since Xu Tao insisted, Ma Youcai didn't say anything anymore. In his opinion, Xu Tao proposed to borrow a car, most likely because he wanted to find the ore vein, and with Xu Tao's eyesight, maybe he could really find it. Although Xu Tao does not let his people follow, after all, Xu Tao is only a Chinese who has come to Myanmar for the first time, and even if he finds a mineral vein and wants to develop, most of them still have to go through his own connections.
Early the next morning, Ma Youcai sent someone to deliver a Land Rover to the hotel and hand it over to Xu Tao. The visitor left without asking anything.
In fact, Ma Youcai guessed well, Xu Tao really wanted to find the ore vein. Yesterday, after looking at the ore vein, Xu Tao concluded that it was just a small branch broken on the main ore vein, and it was separated from the main ore vein due to the movement of the earth's crust, but according to Xu Tao's estimate, the distance between this ore vein and the main ore vein was not close, and the guy named Ne Wen yesterday was afraid that he went in the wrong direction.
Of course, if Xu Tao goes to find the ore vein, he can actually do without a car, with his current ability, if he is willing to spend some immortal power, he can go to it quietly, and he can be completely unaware.
However, mining veins is a labor-intensive job, and Xu Tao has no idea of doing it himself. Since he is destined to find someone to cooperate, he doesn't have to hide from Ma Youcai, as long as the two sides can negotiate, he doesn't mind letting Ma Youcai get some benefits.
Of course, he still refused to follow Ma Youcai's people, after all, before the negotiation, he didn't want Ma Youcai to know the location of the ore vein, if he couldn't negotiate, he could find other people to cooperate, and it was not Ma Youcai who could have the ability to mine jade ore alone, just like that Ne Win, it was also possible.
However, there is also a general reason why people don't follow, and when he returned to Ma Youcai's company yesterday, Xu Tao found that someone was secretly monitoring the warehouse of Hongxianglou there. And these people obviously have bad intentions, and even have a murderous aura, Xu Tao can feel that this murderous aura is coming at him.
If I guessed correctly, I'm afraid this group is Luo Feng's people.
In this case, of course, Xu Tao did not need to bring others. When a person comes out, and he goes to that kind of inaccessible place, those people who come will not let go of this opportunity. And in that case, it's just right to do it yourself. Whoever fights his own ideas, Xu Tao will not be soft.
Before Xu Tao could get into the car, he suddenly opened the door on the other side, and a slender figure swooped into the car.
Xu Tao looked at Zhao Xinling, who was dressed as a tomboy, and said, "What are you doing here?" ”
"I'm going to hang out with you!" Zhao Xinling said.
With Xu Tao's ability, of course, he had already discovered that Zhao Xinling was secretly approaching, and the reason why he didn't point it out was just to see what she wanted to do. After listening to her words, he said, "No, I'll go out, what are you going to do?" ”
Zhao Xinling pouted a little unhappily and said, "You are not interesting enough, you go out alone, how boring is it for me to stay in the hotel?" ”
Xu Tao asked, "Do you know what I'm going to do?" ”
Zhao Xinling was excited when he heard this: "You must be looking for a mineral vein, right?" ”
Xu Tao didn't deny it, and said: "That's very dangerous! Aren't you afraid? ”
"Don't be afraid!" Zhao Xinling said: "Aren't you there?" The last time I was with you, it was okay to overturn the car, what danger am I afraid of? ”
"Aren't you afraid? Don't cry if something happens in a while! ”
"Cut, I'm going to cry my nose?" Zhao Xinling said and suddenly became coquettish: "You just let me go with you, how boring it is to be bored in the hotel, with you, I am not afraid of anything!" ”
Xu Tao thought about it, and suddenly felt that it was not bad to have a beautiful woman go out with her, at least it was not so boring, even if she was attacked, with her immortal ability, she would naturally be able to protect her. He said, "You come and drive!" ”
"Okay!" When Zhao Xinling heard the joy, she didn't open the door and get out of the car, she stepped directly from it, squeezed in front of Xu Tao, and deliberately squeezed into his arms, Xu Tao subconsciously reached out and hugged her.
Zhao Xinling was overjoyed, but coughed and said, "Come over quickly, I can't sit on you and drive, right?" ”
Although the space is a little small, it is obviously difficult for Xu Daxian. Xu Tao hugged her for a while, put her in the driver's seat, and moved to the side: "Okay, let's drive!" ”
Zhao Xinling didn't expect Xu Tao to move away so easily, pouted with some dissatisfaction, stepped on the accelerator, and the Land Rover roared and rushed out. Out of the hotel, Zhao Xinling didn't ask Xu Tao where he was going, and drove north with a dozen steering wheels.
