Because it was night calcite, the light was not very good, and it was not rubbed in a few indistinguishable places, but the outline of the whole piece of jadeite was fully revealed.

This piece of jadeite is about 25 centimeters high, in the shape of a tree trunk, the top and bottom are as thick as a thumb, and there are four forks in the middle.

Placed under the strong light, the whole piece of jade looks like a bonsai dwarf tree surrounded by colored light bulbs, and through the white crystals on the trunk, the whole body exudes an alluring brilliance under the light.

This shape is quite a strange tree, and then the insect coils around.

Wu Gang's eyes were all attracted by this piece of jadeite, and he muttered to himself, where is there still a trace of the style of a Burmese jade tycoon.

"Wang Ding, I have a reluctant request, this piece of jadeite will be carved by me, and when it is finished, I will send it to you, the thing, or yours, how about it?"

Wang Ding is now in Myanmar, if this thing is brought back to China, there will be no problem with carving Deng Rushan, but I am afraid it will not be completed yet.

Seeing that Wang Ding didn't speak immediately, Wu Gang paused, and then said: "This thing is carved out, and the value is at least more than 100 million yuan, brother, your eyesight, brother I am convinced now......

"100 million? It won't be so expensive, it's just ice material......"

Wang Ding was a little surprised by the price Wu Gang said.

"You don't know what to say, if you want me to say at least 100 million, this kind of jade is really rare, and these jade insects. That's the icing on the cake. The ice material is already very good. Brother, some people who play with strange stones, they only look at the shape, and they don't pay much attention to the material......"

Wu Gang kept turning around this almost natural jade tree, with a fanatical look in his eyes.

"Okay, since Brother Wu has said so, I will stay and carve for Brother Wu."

After Wang Ding agreed, Wu Gang called the RV driver who had been waiting outside. Carefully put the jade in the car, and then sent Wang Ding back to the hotel, and made an appointment to go to the mine at noon tomorrow.

After entering the hotel, Wang Ding did not go to Qian Le's room, but directly looked for Bi Yue.

How to say it, the last time I disarmed without two hits, Wang Ding hasn't tried enough flavor, it will be like stealing fish, Wang Ding didn't say much after he came.

Directly hugged Bi Yue to the bedroom, the two of them are you and me. All have this idea and are too lazy to take extra steps. didn't flirt much yet, it started, Wang Ding's single knife this time was also extremely turbulent, Bi Yue cooperated and enjoyed it contentedly, and for a while the joy in the hut continued.

After doing a good job, Wang Ding reluctantly returned to his room, but something in Qian Le's hand startled Wang Ding.

"Qian Le, what are you doing with a gun?"

Wang Ding couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw that Qian Le took out a jet-black Cheng Liang pistol, but a trace of curiosity flashed in his eyes.

"Brother Ding, the security in Yangon and Mandalay is quite good, but when you enter the mining area, it will be chaotic, and those places are close to the China-Myanmar border, maybe there will be smugglers and drug dealers, and they will be safer with guns."

Dare to love Qian Le said that he has something to do is to find a gun.

Qian Le knew that there were smuggling guns and guns in Myanmar, and it was not difficult to get one, and Qian Le should have practiced for a long time, so he would know how to play with this gun.

The surface of this gun, even with black paint, is only in the handle and re-entry smoothbore and trigger, revealing obvious traces of frequent use, the black paint has been worn off, revealing a silver-white iron color, heavy in the hand, about a pound of weight.

Men always have a special preference for guns, even if a cowardly person, after holding a gun, will burst out of unusual courage, although Wang Ding is not very fond of using violence to solve problems, but playing with this gun, there is also a feeling of love.

"This is a May Fourth pistol, although you can still find some more powerful weapons, but it's not very convenient to carry, so let's use this to make do with it......"

Seeing Wang Ding playing with the gun, Qian Le laughed, took the gun in Wang Ding's hand, and then taught Wang Ding the characteristics of the May Fourth gun, how to load and fire, and where to insure.

The May Fourth pistol is a series of pistols imitated from Russia, using the 51-type knife and 2 pistol cartridges, using a short recoil of the barrel to re-bury, the locking method belongs to the barrel swing type, the magazine capacity is eight rounds, and the whole gun is composed of a barrel, an upper section sleeve, a lower section sleeve, a re-entry device, a plate machine department, and a magazine.

The May Fourth pistol has been used as a standard weapon in China for more than half a century, and this gun can shoot through a steel plate 3 mm thick, a wooden board 1 meter thick, and a brick wall 6 cm thick at a distance of 2 meters.

In 1967, there were many factory numbers of May Fourth pistols, not only the army and police were equipped with this kind of gun, but even the security departments of some large enterprises also used May Fourth pistols.

"Qian Le, this is a gun, you can take it."

After Wang Ding played with it for a while, although he was reluctant, he still handed the gun to Qian Le, after all, Qian Le found it.

Qian Le waved his hand, magically took out another gun from his body, and said, "Brother Ding, then put you in your handbag for self-defense, I still have a ...... myself."

"Damn, you kid still has a handful, that's a good feeling."

"One can't do it, two of us have a care for each other, this time it is very dangerous to go to Savage Mountain, we must be ready for everything."

Qian Le said and took out five more magazines, all of which were full of yellow bullets, and it seemed that there were quite a few smuggling guns in Mandalay.

"I also bought this."

As Qian Le spoke, he opened his black bag, took out a swarthy iron egg from it, and threw it on his hand.

"Isn't this a grenade? You still bought this? ”

Wang Ding was really taken aback. Is there a local melon with a grenade to play with? If this is accidentally detonated. I met Lord Yama by myself. There is a big word "injustice" on the head.

Qian Le nodded very seriously and said, "Brother Ding, if you just go to the mining area, there is naturally no need to prepare these things, but if we want to go into the jungle, then it is best to be fully equipped and prepared......

Looking at Wang Ding's look of being afraid to avoid it, Qian Le laughed. Said: "This is the N68 grenade of the United States, the performance is relatively good, the security is also very high, Brother Ding, you don't have to be afraid that it will automatically detonate, and this kind of grenade can be used for both offensive and defensive purposes, and it can also be used for blasting at that time."

I also bought a few plastic bombs. ”

As soon as Wang Ding heard the name of the plastic bomb, he was uncomfortable, this equipment was indeed a bit terrifying, and Wang Ding didn't sleep very well this night.

Because it was too late to dissolve the stone last night, it was noon the next day. Wu Gang's phone called, although Wang Ding did not sleep very peacefully. But in the end, he was still young, and after a few hours of rest, he became energetic, but Wu Gang, who came over to pick him up, still had a trace of tiredness on his face.

"Brother Wang, this is Professor Ma, this is Professor Liang, they are all geological experts I invited from China, and this time they also helped me to see the ...... of the jade mine."

In the lobby of the hotel, Wu Gang introduced two old men in their fifties to Wang Ding, although he said that he had asked Wang Ding to see the mineral veins, but he still spent a lot of money to invite two experts from China.

After all, Wu Gang has invested nearly 300 million yuan in that jade mine, and it is impossible to put his hope on Wang Ding, a hairy young man, who will gamble on stones, and he will not necessarily look at the ore veins.

Wang Ding didn't guess Wu Gang's thoughts, the purpose of his trip to Pa Da was also not on the jade mine, but Wang Ding was also very happy to see two of his own people in a foreign country.

Professor Ma and Professor Liang are also very happy to be able to come to Myanmar to investigate the jadeite mine, both of them are studying the cause of the formation of jadeite, but because they have not been to the jadeite mine, the subject has been stagnant. It is important to know that the Myanmar government has always been taboo about jadeite mines, and foreigners are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving.

Including Myitkyina, the northern part of Myanmar is listed as a military restricted area and has never been opened to the outside world, and this opportunity to enter the mining area is also the result of the Burmese military junta's control of most of the power in northern Myanmar and the efforts of Wu Gang at the top of Myanmar, otherwise it would be difficult for outsiders to enter.

However, then Wu Gang introduced several soldiers behind him, and Wang Ding realized that these people who dared to protect themselves on the surface should actually be here to monitor the behavior of himself and others in the mining area.

Originally, from Mandalay to Myitkyina, the group could only take a train, but this distance of six or seven hundred kilometers, I am afraid that it will take dozens of hours to run by train, because the speed of trains in Myanmar is still at the level of the fifties and sixties in China. Therefore, Wu Gang used his connections to transfer a military helicopter from the Burmese military.

The RV drove directly to a military camp on the outskirts of Mandalay, surrounded by soldiers with guns, Wang Ding couldn't help but tighten the bag in his hand, there was still a pistol there, if it was checked out by these soldiers, I don't know what kind of chaos it would cause.

When looking at Qian Le beside him, Wang Ding calmed down a little, this kid was carrying the slightly worn backpack comfortably, looking around with a nonchalant expression, as if the bag was not a bomb, but a candy gift brought to a friend's house.

Wang Ding now knows what it means to be a thief, I used to hear people say that those who broke the law and escaped often couldn't eat and sleep for years or even decades, so Wang Ding didn't believe it, but now he realized that although he didn't commit anything, he just loaded a gun in his bag, and he began to feel uneasy.

Fortunately, from the time he got off the bus to the time he got on the helicopter, no one offered to check the packages of Wang Ding and others, which made Wang Ding breathe a sigh of relief.

Wu Gang, who followed Wang Ding into the helicopter, was holding a fifty or sixty centimeter-long wooden box in his arms, which contained Wang Ding's tree-shaped jadeite, which he was going to take home and slowly carve it.

"Brother Ding, this is a military transport helicopter produced in Mi-type Russia, produced in the sixties and seventies of the last century, it is an antique, but the performance is not bad, it can seat more than 23 people......

Qian Le looked at the transport plane and whispered in Wang Ding's ear. It's just that after those Burmese soldiers came. Qian Le immediately stopped talking.

Wang Ding Zhilu said. Before the dissolution of the Soviet Union in the last century, for its global strategic position, a fleet was stationed in the port of Burma, but later Russia's economic tension and the withdrawal of that fleet to the country, but in Burma there are many military facilities with the imprint of Russia.

The speed of a military direct transport lift like this is about 300 kilometers per hour, which is not very fast. But it has the advantage of a large fuel load, a longer range than a typical helicopter, and plenty of interior space.

Wu Gang, Wang Ding, and those people sent by the Burmese army, there were a total of seven people, and they didn't look crowded at all when they sat in the cabin, and they even had room to lean down and sleep.

It's just that Wang Ding's mind can only think about it, when the propeller of the helicopter rotates, the huge roar shook several people in the cabin with red faces and red ears, and they opened their mouths wide. To relieve the discomfort in the ears, only the Burmese soldiers and Wu Gang's performance was normal. As for Qian Le, Wang Ding and the two professors were really miserable, and their eardrums seemed to be about to be shattered.

The two professors who were still thinking of continuing to chat on the helicopter, after the helicopter took off, their faces turned pale and they were silent, and the wind outside the cabin was lured into the cabin, not to mention talking, even if they opened their mouths, they could fill you with the air with the smell of the rainforest. Fortunately, the winter temperature in Myanmar is above 20 degrees, otherwise everyone in the cabin will be frozen into popsicles.

After leaving the barracks, after about half an hour, Wang Ding felt a little more comfortable, Wang Ding looked at the ground from the glass in the cabin, but everywhere he saw was tall trees and dense forests, and there was no scenery at all.

It is now the dry season in Myanmar, those tall broad-leaved trees, also seem to be a little withered, the leaves on the trunk are very scarce, Wang Ding looked at the bottom of the Lu for more than ten minutes, there is no one in sight, a little desolate.

However, now is the best time to mine jadeite in Myanmar, because when the rainy season comes, the mountain roads will be very difficult to walk, not to mention people, even livestock can not pass, so now in the mining area, is the busiest time.

The mountains of Myanmar are not particularly steep, but they are endless, one mountain peak after another, and the jungle is dense, and Wang Ding believes that if he is thrown down from here, it is estimated that he will not be able to escape from it for a year and a half.

Looking at the towering trees under the plane, Wang Ding felt very incredible about the social form of Myanmar, Myanmar itself is close to the seaport, the geographical location is very important, and the inland is rich in precious stones and precious teak, but the Burmese people are so poor, this root does not know where the source of the road comes from.

After more than an hour, the helicopter slowed down and slowly stopped on a hill, Wang Ding thought that he had reached the ground, and hurriedly unbuckled his seat belt and jumped off the helicopter.

"This ...... What is this place? It's not Myitkyina, is it? ”

Wang Ding looked around, there were dense forests everywhere, and couldn't help but look at Wu Gang, even if this northern Myanmar is barren, it is impossible not to even see a figure.

"It's not. We're only halfway there, and the driver needs to take a break, come on, man, and have a drink. ”

Wu Gang smiled and handed Wang Ding a bottle of drink.

It is more appropriate to say that the pilot wants to rest, because after the helicopter stops, the pilot is busy, and he is checking whether the various parts of the helicopter are working properly, and you must know that this is an old antique from thirty or forty years ago, and it cannot support a flight for several hours in a row.

If there is something wrong in the sky, I am afraid that the people on the helicopter will be smashed into pulp before the parachute is opened, but the military facilities produced by the polar bear are still trustworthy in terms of quality, at least Wu Gang has sat many times, and there has been no problem.

Professor Ma and Professor Liang also helped each other and walked down from the helicopter, their bodies and bones were not as good as Wang Ding's, their faces would have been pale, if they hadn't helped each other, I am afraid they would have fallen to the ground long ago.

"Two, it's nothing, I'm really sorry, let the two of you suffer, there are also mineral veins nearby, but we have to work a little harder, rush to Pa Kang, I wonder if the two teachers of Lu Dao can hold on a little longer?"

Wu Gang saw the two professors get off the helicopter and hurriedly greeted them, he just wanted to arrive in the Phakant area of Myitkyina as soon as possible, but he didn't expect that the two of them could not withstand the bumps of the helicopter.

In fact, taking a train in Myanmar is estimated to be better than this helicopter, it takes thirty or forty hours from Mandalay to Myitkyina, and the bumps along the way are even more intense.

"There is nothing to do, nothing to do, I can persevere, I really didn't expect that the growth environment of the jade mine will be in this kind of place, hearing is false, seeing is believing......"

"Not really. That's hard work for two. ”

"It's nothing, it's nothing."

Professor Ma waved his hand again and again, indicating that he had no problem, the beauty of jadeite is well known, but the mining and growing environment behind jadeite is rarely mentioned in the world, because of the Myanmar government's seclusion. This is just like the Qing Dynasty government in feudal society, closed off the country, and at the end of the day, it was only itself that was backward and beaten.

The formation of jadeite geological landform, has always been a topic of discussion among domestic geologists, now have the opportunity to see the geological environment of jadeite growth, although the two professors are tired, but their faces are still full of excitement. (To be continued......)
