"Will there be jadeite in this mountain?"

Wang Ding suddenly had such a thought in his heart, when he was at the top of the mountain, it seemed that he did not observe the accessories of the rail car, maybe he was really here. Thinking of this, Wang Ding condensed slightly, and his eyes looked down at the bottom.

"One meter...... Five-meter ...... Fifteen meters...... Twenty meters ...... Fifty meters"

Wang Ding has seen a hundred meters, and the inside of the rock that he sees is also pyroxene rock, but there are no pieces of jadeite appearing, and occasionally a few touches of green flash in Wang Ding's eyes, and the color is also very light, all of which are scattered jade.

Wang Ding looked ten meters away from it without giving up, this was already the maximum distance that his aura could reach now, but there was still no sign of the jade vein, Wang Ding was slightly disappointed, his gaze moved slightly to the lower part of the aura, and he was ready to withdraw his aura. "Isn't it?"

Who knew that when Wang Ding's gaze moved down, a cold aura was suddenly sensed by the aura, and this aura was very pure, Wang Ding only felt it in the ice jade.

Wang Ding almost blurted out, but fortunately he saw the opportunity quickly and pretended to be restrained.

Wang Ding's eyes were still staring at the rock wall opposite, but fortunately, the sky had darkened, and the people next to him didn't notice that his expression was wrong.

If it was during the day, Qian Le and Wu Gang would definitely see that the muscles on Wang Ding's face were twitching slightly, and the hands that grabbed the handrails of the rail car were even more exerting because of the exertion, which caused the green tendons on the back of the hands to be exposed, which showed that he was in a nervous mood now.

At the same time that Wang Ding sensed the aura just now, he also saw the situation inside the rock wall. That kind of scene is difficult to describe in words, and everywhere you see it, it is completely green. It's like being in a prairie in spring, and you can't see anything else but green.

The clumps of jadeite included in the stone skin exuded a moving fluorescence in Wang Ding's eyes, and at the beginning, Wang Ding even wondered if it was the previous fire cloud, which made him delusional. But as the rail car moved, the jade veins clearly appeared in his eyes.

This vein is far from the location where Wang Ding's current rail car is located. It is about 267 meters deep into the rock, and about 200 meters from the top of the mountain.

The length of the emerald vein, so far, from where Wang Ding was first seen. It has already extended more than sixty meters down. The width he couldn't predict, but at least five meters or more, because at the edge of the distance that his aura could reach, there was still the presence of jadeite.

Since the rail car was always moving, Wang Ding couldn't stop to observe the quality of those jadeites specifically, but the cold breath he sensed in his eyes showed that the jadeite grade of this vein should not be too bad, and he intuitively saw a few pieces of jadeite. All of them are above the bean green species, which is a mid-range jadeite raw material.

"Gone?"

After the rail car drove down the hill for another 100 meters. The ore veins in Wang Ding's eyes suddenly disappeared. One hundred and sixty or seventy meters of emerald ore veins, oh my God......"

Wang Ding's heart is excited at the moment, it is one hundred and sixty or seventy meters long, and the width is at least five meters or more, how much can such a jade mine be worth, one billion? Billion? Wang Ding didn't dare to think about it at all.

The data mentioned above does not mean that this piece is so large, but that in this length of more than 100 meters, the growth of jadeite is relatively concentrated, and every other distance, there will be the existence of jadeite, which is a vein.

Wu Gang said earlier that after exploration, he learned that this is the largest mine in Myanmar, which is not a lie, but he is not looking for the other party's position now, but has made the place out of the ore vein into a track for transporting rough stones, and if it is pulled in from here for dozens of meters, the ore vein can be immediately revealed.

However, Wang Ding's idea is a little simple, the slope of this mountain has reached nearly a thousand lengths, and the place where Wang Ding found the vein is located at a place of about 600 to 800 meters.

Because the mountain is full of rocks, it is difficult to drill down hundreds of meters from the top of the mountain by drilling and prospecting, so it is very difficult to accurately find the ore vein on such a vast mountain, and it is almost the same as looking for a needle in a haystack.

Although there have been experts and scholars in the world to infer that jadeite is formed in a low temperature and high pressure environment, but it has been inconclusive, for the growth environment of jadeite, there is no one that can be recognized as a statement, and in the actual mining, jadeite veins are also erratic, difficult to ponder.

Take the vein that Wang Ding just saw, it is actually in the middle of the mountainside, if you want to say that the low temperature and high pressure, it should be at the foot of the mountain or the top of the mountain to be more consistent, but it appeared in the middle of the mountain, I don't know what kind of inference those geological experts will make when they learn about this situation in the future.

In the hundreds of meters down the mountain, Wang Ding never found the existence of the jade vein again, Wang Ding also regained his composure, and he now began to think about how he could tell Wu Gang the news.

Can you see it or not, this has always been a place that troubles Wang Ding, he can't pull Wu Gang to the mountain with mineral veins, and directly tell him that there is jade more than 30 meters deep inside, right?

And the rocks on the surface of the mountain are very normal, and there is no sign of jadeite, and I can't say that there is jadeite in it from a certain place, just like fooling the jade prince, and there is really no basis at all.

Forty or fifty people living at the foot of the mountain are all heavily armed mine guards, and the workers on the mountain usually do not come down, but there are simple shelters on the mountain, and there are also master chefs who cook, except for the mountain wind at night, there are many fewer mosquitoes than at the bottom of the mountain.

Coming down behind Wang Ding was the foreman and a young man, originally they didn't have to go down the mountain, it was Wu Gang who deliberately called them down with a walkie-talkie, and accompanied Wang Ding into the Savage Mountain tomorrow.

Two bonfires had been lit at the foot of the mountain, and some of the guards had gone into the mountain in the afternoon to hunt a wild boar, and some other birds, who had already washed their senses, put them up with iron forks and roasted them on the fire, and on another small bonfire, set up a pot, which seemed to be boiling something.

Although Wu Gang had thoughts, he still cheered up. Wang Ding and the two professors were greeted to sit on the paved ground, with a low long table in front of them, and from time to time someone brought barbecued food to the table.

After a few hours of noise. The mountains were calm, and the blazing bonfire was extinguished, except that in the darkness, with a few points of light from time to time, it was the men of the mine guard watchman who smoked.

Wu Gang's attention to this mine naturally goes without saying, only in the passage of more than a kilometer into the mountain. He arranged seven or eight light and dark sentinels, but if there was a disturbance, the people here could rush over at once.

When I slept in the middle of the night. Wang Ding woke up, the headache had been relieved, but his mouth was dry, and the feeling of wanting to shh was very strong. Lift the blanket that I don't know who gave to cover my body. Wang Ding sat up from the bamboo bed.

There is a scent in the house, which is a mosquito coil made of mosquito repellent leather, which is a special product of Myanmar, and a stick of incense can make a room free of mosquitoes.

"Who? Brother Ding, are you awake? ”

In the corner of Wang Ding's wooden house, Qian Le's voice sounded.

"Well, I'm fine, you go back to sleep, I'll go to the toilet......"

Wang Ding pushed open the door of the wooden house. Walked up the six or seven wooden stairs. Burmese people built wooden houses to protect against flash floods in the summer. It is often one or two meters above the ground, using thick wood as a pillar, on which the shelves of the house are built with a mixture of bamboo and wood, and then the roof can be laid, and there will be a wooden staircase between the door and the ground.

When the mountain torrents pass by in the summer, the impact on these wooden trees as the bottom dry cannot destroy these wooden houses, and such structures can be found everywhere in Myanmar, Laos and Thailand.

Basically, these wooden houses are not nailed, but tied with ropes soaked in oil, which are very strong, and the bark of the wood has not been shaved off, and they look rough by the moonlight.

After Wang Ding finished going to the toilet at the back of the wooden house, he saw a person sitting in the open space surrounded by the wooden house, smoking a cigarette silently, and looking carefully, it was Wu Gang.

"Brother Wu, why don't you sleep?"

The dense and tall trees in the distance seem to be black, this season in Myanmar, there seems to be no insects chirping, the surroundings are very quiet, the silence makes people feel a little depressed, it seems that there is only one person left in the world.

"I can't sleep, I also imagine you like that, you don't care about anything when you drink, you fall asleep, but there are still a group of people who have followed our Wu family for decades, and they can't let go......"

Wu Gang took a hard puff of his cigarette, the cigarette butt lit up violently in the night, and then extinguished it on the ground, showing a trace of sadness on his face. "Brother Wu, you don't have to be too anxious, this mine has been surveyed by so many people, there should be a vein, as long as it is dug down, it will definitely produce jadeite ......"

Although Wang Ding knew the location of the jade veins in his heart, he couldn't say it clearly, and when he said it, it was more comforting to Wu Gang's ears.

"Dig again? Hehe, it's okay to say for two or three months, but after a long time, I can't hold on. ”

Wu Gang smiled bitterly, these depressions had been pressed in his heart for a long time, and now he had found a catharsis gate, and talked to Wang Ding endlessly.

It turns out that the Wu family seems to be beautiful now, but in fact, it is difficult to maintain, it is because of this jade mine, almost all the funds of the Wu family have been emptied, and now the expenditure of these hundreds of workers every day is a lot of money.

The price of jadeite has skyrocketed, but it has only started in the eighties of the last century, and the Hu family has accumulated more than one billion funds in the past two years, of course, this number is quite a lot in Myanmar.

It's just that Wu Gang has made some investments in Southeast Asia in recent years, spending hundreds of millions, plus the current expenditure of this jade mine, almost all the capital of the Wu family has been hollowed out, so now the capital chain of the Wu Gang family is almost unsustainable, if the vein does not produce jadeite, the consequences will be quite serious.

Even if Wu Gang gives up this jade mine now, there will be no improvement in terms of funds, and it is estimated that his investment in Southeast Asia and Taiwan has not yet seen the benefits, and the Wu family can no longer support it.

In this public auction, the reason why Wu Gang wanted to smuggle a batch of jadeite rough stones to Bi Jiahao so much was also because he wanted to raise funds, although he would not have a lot of money. But it can also relieve Wu Gang's pressure to some extent, but because of Wang Ding's sideways intervention, Bi Jiahao gambled on a few good materials. It didn't work out.

After listening to this, Wang Ding asked puzzledly: "Brother Wu, even if this jadeite mine has opened up a vein now, isn't there still no way for you to turn these jadeites into cash in a short period of time?" ”

Now the Myanmar military government strictly controls the export of jadeite rough, so even a big jadeite merchant like Wu Gang can only rely on jadeite public markets to sell large quantities of jadeite rough.

As for the rough stones that were smuggled out of the country. Not to mention the low price, the quantity will not be very much, for Wu Gang's current economic situation. There is no fundamental help, so Wang Ding has this question.

Wu Gang shook his head and said, "It's different, as long as this pit is not a waste mine." This situation can be reversed in no time. In Myanmar, jadeite is money, and there are also business dealings between major jadeite companies, using jadeite as collateral and turning over a sum of money, which is a very normal business behavior.

It's just that I didn't find a vein in this mine, and many jade companies are waiting to see the joke. They did not accept our company's jadeite, or kept the price very low.

"I see."

Wang Ding understood. However, it is because this jadeite mine has not been mined before, if it starts to produce jadeite rough in large quantities, it means that Wu's is out of the predicament, and those companies will naturally change their strategy against Wu's company.

"Brother Wu, how long can your current funds be supported?" Wang Ding had already begun to think in his heart that he could insert a kick.

"Save a little, you should be able to go to the next Myanmar market, but at that time, if you don't find a vein, it's over, cough..."

Wu Gang didn't continue, but Wang Ding understood that this was tantamount to a bottomless pit, as long as he couldn't find the veins for a day, he would keep devouring a large amount of money.

"Brother Wu, can Myanmar accept foreign investment?"

Wu Gang didn't have a head and answered quickly.

"Yes, some of the jade companies in Myanmar are foreign capital, but there are more restrictions, and in the past few decades, they have only introduced 1 billion euros of foreign capital, no, brother, you don't want to invest in this mine, right?"

Wu Gang suddenly raised his head as he spoke, and looked at Wang Ding in surprise.

Since 1988, about 17 years have passed, and the total foreign investment in the mining sector has been less than one billion euros.

You know, this is a country, one billion euros in the country, just three or five projects of investment, maybe not even to build a port. When Wang Ding heard this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of sympathy for the country of Myanmar.

"Brother Wu, I want to ask if there is such a possibility, after all, this mine is also explored by many jade companies, and they are very optimistic about it, maybe if they persist for a few more months, there will be jadeite-? I'm just adventurous and I love a challenge. "What happened to the Burmese government is none of Wang Ding's business, Wang Ding quickly put his mind on this mine.

Wu Gang frowned and said, "Of course it is possible to invest, and I can transfer shares internally without going through the Myanmar government, so I can spend a lot less ruthenium, but ...... It's just that, Brother Wang, this is not a trivial matter, if it is really a waste mine, then all the money will be wasted, so I don't want to drag you into the water......"

Wu Gang's mood is very contradictory now, he wants to introduce funds, but he doesn't want this person to be Wang Ding, after all, the two families will have a relationship with each other soon.

"I don't have any money on me now, but I can ask the company to call me a batch of funds, I just want to ask, is this jade capital turnover fast?"

"Of course it's soon, I'm afraid that all the jade companies in Myanmar will ask for my head at that time, and Myanmar has three jade public auctions a year, if there are enough rough stones, except for the commissions taken by the government, a public market to earn hundreds of millions of euros is nothing......"

"So ruthless!"

In Myanmar, the big jadeite companies will communicate with each other in normal times, not to say that the rough stone from which mine must only be purchased through that mine, as long as other companies have money, they can also buy, as long as they do not leave Myanmar, the government does not care about these things.

"Then Brother Wu, how much does this mine cost, and can it last for another year?"

"At least 30 million euros, my money, plus the fees charged by the government, can only support half a year's ......"

"That is, another 30 million euros, which can last for a year? Brother Wu, if I give out these 30 million euros, how many shares can I have? ”

Wu Gang was a little overwhelmed by Wang Ding, and just now he said that he didn't succeed, and now he asked about investing in shares.

He took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, opened the cigarette case and lit it, he was smoking silently, Wang Ding did not urge, he knew that Wu Gang was calculating the gains and losses of his interests.

30 million euros, 30% of the shares, can not be more, and these shares can no longer be transferred, can only be sold according to the mine to sell the jadeite, take a share, if the final proof is that this is a waste mine, then your investment is all in vain, and after liquidation, how much can be returned, is how much. We can sign the contract in China, and it has nothing to do with the Burmese government......"

"30 million euros is 300 million yuan, so Brother Wu, when does this money need to arrive?"

"Within a month, if you can raise this money within a month, I will go to China to sign a contract with you, otherwise this mine, I am ready to dispose of it."

"Good! That's it! (To be continued......)
