According to Liu Yeqing's account of Mrs. Liu, when the mining began the next day, Mu Yi advocated being careful and careful, and if the workers used the tools a little inappropriately, he scolded him loudly, but fortunately, he was very popular on weekdays, and the workers did not care.

The foreman also jokingly said, "What's wrong with Engineer Mu Yi?" We are mine workers, not surgeons who take babies by caesarean section, and the movements cannot be so meticulous! Of course, under Mu Yi's strict requirements, the progress of the project was quite slow.

The boss of the company was a little dissatisfied, Mu Yi went to the office and shouted: "I want to take it out completely and not let it be damaged in any way - it is a masterpiece of nature, a spiritual fetus conceived by the earth, and a little damage is a crime against nature and the planet we live in!" His words were impassioned and intonable, leaving everyone who heard them dumbfounded, but the main reason why they could not disagree with his approach was the preliminary mining results. Secondary ores not only have yellow coal essence, citrine, ink crystal, hair crystal that seems to be a little messy and beautiful, but also crystal transparent pure coal essence, and because the crystal contains tiny cracks, it will refract light, showing rainbow general seven-color brilliance rainbow coal essence, nearly translucent green coal essence, strange light red rose coal essence, and tiger's eye coal essence, flash coal essence, eagle eye coal essence, orange coal essence...... Almost all of the recorded coal* species are in it—a natural museum of coal spirits, as if it were formed for the purpose of a supreme force to tell people how many kinds of coal there are on earth.

Many of the people present are engaged in coal mining and have long-term experience, but such a treasure trove of coal essence is also a miracle that they have never imagined! After a burst of admiration, there was a brief silence.

More than 30 people present, all of them held their breath, but everyone had great respect for this treasure house of coal essence - the great work of art can make people revere the idea, the treasure house of coal essence is the artistic crystallization of nature, and it can make people leisurely think of the scene of the beginning of chaos when the earth's crust changed and magma shot out 70 million years ago! The majestic scene when the whole earth is turned upside down, it is naturally more able to make people hold their breath and rest as a sign of respect.

Eight days later, the entire pellet was mined.

Because it was so heavy, special lifting machinery was used, and it was only under very difficult circumstances that it was moved out of the mine.

Originally, it was possible to use the characteristics of this round shape to roll it out in a simple way, but Mu Yi resolutely did not allow it, saying that it would "make it feel uncomfortable". Everything in the surrounding mines, even the dust, everything that could be moved, was moved, and it was put in place exactly as it was, and everything could be said to have remained unchanged.

This is almost unreasonable, but when Liu Yeqing argued with him for a few words, Mu Yi's demeanor was so vicious that he seemed to want to kill someone, Liu Yeqing had never seen him so vicious since he knew him, so he had to give up.

What came out of the mine looked like it was nothing more than a giant stone egg.

The beautiful crystallization of the coal spirit is inside, and it is not visible until it is opened.

Mu Yi was extremely excited, and he was almost unable to handle affairs normally, so the future actions were all commanded by Liu Yeqing.

Liu Yeqing ordered the huge "stone eggs" to be transported to the studio, demolished one wall of the studio, and then carried out X-ray fluoroscopy, which is a necessary procedure after the egg-like coal essence is excavated.

In order to reveal its beautiful and dazzling part, the egg-like coal essence must be cut open so that the coal crystals inside can be revealed.

And how to cut it, in order to keep its beauty as intact, is a rather esoteric science, since the discovery of ray by Roentgen in Germany, won the first Nobel Prize, everything depends on prior X-ray perspective to make a decision.

The X-ray fluoroscopy equipment of the British mining company is very advanced, and when the fluoroscopy work is carried out, the main figures of the British economic circles in the three eastern provinces are all concentrated in the studio, and even the consul general has traveled thousands of miles to come, and the work is mainly presided over by Mu Yi.

When the result is processed and turned into a picture, each image is amazing.

First of all, the coarse, irregular cylindrical crystals of the crystal nucleus, with a length of up to 10 centimeters on each side, and some of them are more than 50 centimeters long - such a huge natural coal essence crystal, which has never appeared in the history of mining! Secondly, this huge coal essence is not a single manganese-containing purple coal essence.

About one-third of it is a deep, bright purple color, and the remaining two-thirds are a variety of different colors, which are very well distributed, and it is a masterpiece of nature's art.

The silence lasted for a few minutes, before it was first broken by a young technician, who called out in a very sharp voice, "God, how shall we cut it?" This question was on everyone's mind, so as soon as the young man called out, there was immediately a "buzzing" conversation.

Like the gambling stone of the city now, how to cut it open and present the most magnificent pearl of the whole treasure house of coal spirits in its entirety is the most important point - if you don't cut it open, it will look like a huge, rough stone egg.

Even if it could be polished smoother, it would still be just a large stone egg, and it would be impossible to see how brilliant its interior was! The beauty of the inside must be dissected to be revealed! Naturally, the head of the company became the moderator of the discussion, absorbing everyone's opinions.

Some advocate cutting a few small holes so that light can shine in, so that the viewer can look up and see.

However, it was immediately denied, because from the X-ray pictures, there was no place inside the coal essence that was not a very delicate crystal, and if a hole was dug, it would inevitably be damaged.

There are also those who advocate cutting one-quarter, and some who advocate one-sixth, and there are different opinions and arguments.

Liu Yeqing's suggestion is: Dividing it into two can minimize the degree of loss, and it can also present its splendor to the greatest extent.

As long as the cutting is done with care, this is indeed an ideal method. This is also what Tekoke wants.

When Liu Yeqing's resolution seemed to have been accepted by everyone, people remembered Mu Yi - in the midst of people's heated discussions, Mu Yi did not express his opinion, which is too unusual! Because he has been the most excited and fanatical one ever since this giant coal element was detected, and he is also in charge of the mining work, why would he not express his opinion at the most important moment? As soon as they thought of this, naturally, everyone's eyes were focused on Mu Yi.

That also surprised everyone who looked at him.

I saw Mu Yi's expression was strange and inexplicable, his face was pale, but it could be seen that he had become so pale because of excitement - his eyes were wide open, his breath was short, and his chest was heaving.

When everyone's eyes were focused on him, his behavior was even more abnormal.

He took a few steps backwards, pressed his back to the giant coal spirit, and then put his backhand on it as if he wanted to protect it.

Naturally, his arms were not long enough to hold the coal spirit whole, but his expression showed an incomparable determination! No one knows what he is determined to do. But everyone knows that he will do whatever it takes to fulfill his determination! Seeing Mu Yi's situation, everyone fell silent.

Mu Yi's gaze even contained hostility towards everyone present, and that kind of gaze was so terrifying that those who wanted to speak did not dare to speak for the time being.

After a stalemate for a while, Mu Yi suddenly shouted: "No-no......" Everyone looked at each other, and no one knew what he meant by that.

Liu Yeqing first asked: "Do you have a better plan?" Mu Yi still shouted: "No! The consul general was angry and amused: "What's the matter? There should always be a follow-up......" Mu Yi's expression was extremely resolute, but there was also a pleading tone in his tone: "No...... Don't ......" He paused slightly, and in an instant, his face was cloudy, and among all the people present, only Liu Yeqing, who was a friend of his old friends, knew what he was thinking - he changed his mind in an instant, and the words he was about to say were retracted and replaced with another language, so when he said it, he hesitated a little: "Don't ...... Don't make a decision that fast, okay? Let me think about it, maybe there will be a better solution! Since Liu Yeqing understood that Mu Yiyan was insincere and what he said was not what he thought in his heart, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Mu Yi, on the other hand, avoided his gaze and just looked at the highest-ranking consul general present.

The consul general frowned: "How long are you going to think about it?" Originally, Mu Yi's words as a Chinese would never be accepted, but because he opened such a precious, may be the world's unparalleled and unique big coal essence, Mu Yi made great contributions, so he reluctantly asked. What's more, in order to suppress the ambitions of the Japanese at that time, Britain generally adopted a policy of softness.

Mu Yi swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "Ten days...... All right...... Seven-day ...... Five-day ...... Three days ......" When he said "ten days", the consul general's face was ugly, as if he had been forced to swallow a dead mouse.

Until Mu Yi was reduced to three days, his face still didn't look much better.

On the side, no one else felt anything, but Liu Yeqing was very nervous.

Because he saw that Mu Yi was shortening the required days all the way, his hands were clenched into fists, and they were clenched tighter and tighter, so that his knuckles protruded - as an old friend, he knew that it was the expression of extreme anger and extreme tension in Mu Yi's heart. At the same time, Old Man Liu was also curious, why did the Japanese go to great lengths to let him sneak into the mine, just to find a priceless treasure? I'm afraid it's not that simple.

If the British insist on it any longer, Mu Yi's strange temper will attack, and he doesn't know what trouble will happen, and at this time it may already be the limit of what he can endure! So Liu Yeqing hurriedly said: "Three days is nothing, Mu Yi has rich experience, it is worth giving him three days to think about it......" As soon as Liu Yeqing spoke, a few people he brought in echoed loudly, and Liu Yeqing saw that Mu Yi's nervous expression eased a little.

The consul general's appearance is still not very good: "I'm very busy, three days!" I have to show me a reason, why it took three days......" Mu Yi* moved, looking at his expression, as if he couldn't wait to say a lot of things.

But as a result, his body trembled with excitement, but he didn't say a word, just showed a very painful and puzzled look, shook his head, and didn't say a word.

The look of the English old man was like another dead rat had been stuffed into his mouth.

Liu Yeqing hurriedly said: "Three days is not a long time, this coal essence will be a unique work of art in the world, we must be careful to do it." Sir, diamond cutters often discuss over the years in order to design the cut of a diamond......"

Several Britons were also talking to each other, and some said that the most famous Orlov diamond at that time, which is currently the third largest diamond in the world, natural diamonds are colorless, some are blue, yellow, brown, green, and other colors, and some are black. Other dark and opaque ones, such as red, blue, bright green, golden, yellow, purple, etc., are rare because they are extremely rare. From the 4th century BC to the early 18th century, India produced about 3 million carats of rough diamonds. Until the 18th century, the reclusive Indian monarch was the world's largest monopolist.

In the early 17th century, this 309-carat rough diamond found in the Golconda diamond placer mine in India was determined by a diamond processing expert to process it into a rose shape according to the intention of the Indian state at that time, but it failed to do so, resulting in a lot of weight loss and only 2 carats. The expert was killed, and this wonderful diamond was later used only as the eyeball of the Brahmin god in the temple of the Seringa in India. In 1739, India was conquered by the Persian monarchs, and the diamond was adorned on the throne of the Persian monarchs. The diamond was then stolen and fell into the hands of an Armenian. In 1767, Armenians deposited diamonds with a money bank in Amsterdam. In 1772 the diamond was sold to the Russian court.

If it weren't for that expert's polishing error, this large diamond would have surpassed the one in the Turkish sultan's court and become the world's largest diamond, right?

Immediately, someone retorted, mocking the spokesman's unheardness. In January 1905, in the Premir diamond mine in South Africa, a South African supervisor found this glittering object while walking, and after removing the floating soil, it was a diamond as large as a fist. The British Occupation Forces paid $750,000 for the world's largest diamond, shipped it to England, and presented it to King Edward VII in 1907 as a 66th birthday gift. The diamond weighed about 3,106 carats before it was cut, and was cut into nine large diamonds and 96 small diamonds with the cooperation of skilled craftsmen, the first of which was a pear-shaped diamond weighing 5,302 carats, known as the Star of Africa, which was large enough to be set on the scepter of the British king.

Listening to the discussion, the consul general sighed and slowed down: "Okay, three days, if there is no new plan, it will be ......cut in half," he said, and ordered all the pictures to be gathered, and he was going to hold a special business meeting to announce the good news.
