Chapter 185: Entering the Mine

After dawn, the monks in the temple began to clean the grounds.

The head descender who was killed last night did not leave any obvious traces, that is, the ground was charred black, and there was a pit 'hole' a few inches deep, leaving the smell of burnt skin and 'hair' in it.

The head descender was burned to the point that only a little remains remained, and there was a small jar made of unknown things, which had been broken by this time, and there was nothing in it like snakes, insects, rats and ants, and it looked like it should be harmless.

Master Gangcuo was more cautious in dealing with this matter.

He asked people to dig a pit, dig a foot into the ground of the charred black land, and then bury the excavated soil deeply, and pour runic water and spirits, and the monks cursed around the pit several times, and then filled the pit with soil, and the ground that was dug up before had already been concocted by someone in the same way.

Commissioner Phumapnasinghe explained, "The head descender is covered in poison, and Master Gangcuo is also doing this to ensure that nothing goes wrong, so that the poison on his body will not be left behind, and the harm will be endless. ”

"Master Gangcuo is thoughtful." Lin Xiao said.

In fact, Lin Xiao felt that this matter was a bit redundant, under his spell bombardment, and after the Heavenly Thunder Strike, all the breath of the head descending master had been annihilated, and it was impossible to leave any poison to harm people.

Lin Xiao somewhat understands Master Gangcuo's approach of one, one, book, reading, and novel xstxt, Master Gangcuo is just worried that the breath of the head lowering master dying here will be 'exposed', in case he recruits his elders or masters or something, it will be a little troublesome.

A junior head lowering division made this place a 'chicken' flying dog jumping, and almost had an accident, what if an intermediate head lowering division or a senior head lowering division came?

This consequence is indeed extremely worrying.

After a few days of medical assistance, there were significantly fewer patients, with only sporadic patients coming in from long distances.

Now Lin Xiao's main job is to deal with this small number of patients, and then wait for the materials airlifted from China to arrive, and then distribute them to the patients in need.

To put it simply, Lin Xiao has nothing big to deal with.

So, Lin Xiao asked the two team leaders for leave, saying that there were some 'private' matters that needed to be dealt with.

"Of course you can, but be sure to be safe." After the incident of killing the head descending division, the people in the medical assistance team all had a sense of awe for Lin Xiao, even the two team leaders, Director Zhang and Director Feng, were no exception.

Now in their eyes, Lin Xiao is a master of the world with unique skills, well, it should be said that he is hidden in the city.

"I know this, and I didn't leave alone, Comrade He Wei from the embassy, and a few other people walked with me." Lin Xiao said, "There is basically no place for me to be needed here, and after I finish the matter, I will go back to China directly, and I will not leave with you." ”

"Okay, I wish you a nice trip." When Director Zhang heard this, he nodded and agreed.

If according to the general situation, they came out as a whole, and they should also go back together, maybe after returning to China, whether it is in the ministry or in the province, there will be leaders to pick them up.

But Lin Xiao's situation is not quite special, so Director Zhang doesn't mind selling him face.

After arranging the things here, Lin Xiao took the Sun brothers, He Wei and a few others, brought some cash, and took a small plane to the area where the jade rough was produced.

In fact, the jadeite mining area in Myanmar is mainly located in the upper reaches of the Wulong River in the northwest of Menggong in northern Myanmar, which is not far from Lin Xiao's current location, about 200 kilometers long and about 15 kilometers wide, with a small area of only more than 3,000 square kilometers.

There are many mines here, each mine has different pits, the jadeite produced has its own special 'color', and the quality is also very different, so the identification of the gambling stone field, that is, the so-called mining 'jade' pit, is of great help to infer the quality of the gambling stone 'jade'.

There is a famous saying in the 'jade' stone industry, "If you don't know the field, you don't play gambling stones." "Therefore, when buying jadeite rough, you must understand the origin and characteristics of the 'jade' material, otherwise you will not be qualified to do gambling stone business.

When they arrived, a military government official came over and showed them around.

Originally, it was impossible to let so many people come over, but Lin Xiao's amazing performance in the matter of beheading the degrader made the commissioner Peng Lapu Nasinghe very surprised, thinking that it was a god descending from the earth, so he took a photo of the appearance and greeted this side with a special 'door', asking them to receive it properly.

The effect of greeting local officials and embassy staff is definitely different, so not only has the number of people been relaxed, but also great enthusiasm has been shown here.

After all, Myanmar is a Buddhist country, and it is still relatively reverent for some supernatural things.

"In Myanmar, Pagang 'jade' stone is a historical pit and was first mined. Pagang 'jade' skin bo, the skin is mainly gray and yellow-white 'color', 'jade' stone crystals are fine, the seed is good, the transparency is high, the 'color' is sufficient, the size is larger, from a few kilograms to hundreds of kilograms, among which the black sand 'jade' is the most famous, but it has been all mined. The official's name is Peng Pu, and he is very talkative, "Houjiang 'jade' stone is divided into old 'jade' and new 'jade', and it is produced in the impact sand of the river 'bed'. The old 'jade' is very small, rarely more than half a catty, but the water is good and the bottom is good, and it is often full of green and high emerald, which is an ideal material for making ring noodles. The new 'jade' is larger, generally about six catties, but it is not easy to process, even if it is full of green and high emerald, it is difficult to make high-end jewelry. ”

Lin Xiao listened to it with relish, after all, the process from the time the jadeite was obtained in the mining area to the time it left the production area after rough processing, for various reasons, it has been 'covered' with a veil of mystery.

Probably all the other gemstones, like jadeite, have a mysterious history.

One of the reasons why jadeite ore is difficult for ordinary people to access in the far-flung northern region of Myanmar is one of the reasons.

But the most important point is that almost all the experts in jadeite appreciation are in China.

The Chinese people have developed the appreciation of jadeite into a 'door' rigorous science, which has led to foreigners feeling a little at a loss about this, after all, the Chinese people have too many sayings, and they all sound like black words, which can make them dizzy.

"There are dozens of countries in the world producing diamonds, but Myanmar has a commercial value of jadeite, now Japan, the United States, Kazakhstan have found jadeite, but it is only a hard 'jade' rock, not up to the value of commercial development, so can not be made into jewelry." When he mentioned this, Peng Pu's face was a little smug, "Why is jadeite only found in Myanmar?" This is related to the geological formation of jadeite. ”

Lin Xiao looked at Peng Pu talking boastfully there, and he was a little disapproving

In fact, the reason why jadeite is so crazy is actually because the Chinese people have some preference for this kind of green stone.

Geologists have long regarded the formation of jadeite as a mystery, and it has been believed that jadeite, like diamonds, was crystallized at high pressures at temperatures of several thousand degrees deep in the earth's crust.

However, studies have confirmed that jadeite is formed under special geological conditions such as low temperature and high pressure.

Now the place where jadeite is produced, hundreds of millions of years ago, just in the Eurasian plate and the Indian plate collision zone, this collision produced a large fault, the deep underground magma along the fault to move upward, and finally crystallized to form a hard 'jade' rock, this hard 'jade' rock is not 'color', it is the main mineral that makes up jadeite.

The green 'color' is because during the formation of jadeite, chromium ions enter to make it appear emerald green 'color'.

Even Lin Xiao had to admit that this thing was indeed the result of magical creation, and it was the 'essence' of the aura of heaven and earth that had accumulated hundreds of millions of years.

If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have taken this opportunity to come to Myanmar to find the jade vein and try to absorb the aura of heaven and earth.

Although the jade itself is just a beautiful stone, it has no meaning for Lin Xiao, but the aura of heaven and earth contained in it is an opportunity for Lin Xiao to continue cultivating and break through the current bottleneck.

"Good jadeite, only in the area of the fog 'dew' river, the area of jadeite is not large, and there are even fewer places to produce 'fine' products." Peng Pu said, "Jadeite resources are getting less and less, so the Myanmar government holds jadeite public auctions twice a year, the so-called public auction, is to gather a lot of jadeite rough in Myanmar, and then let all the jadeite merchants in the world go, all to evaluate, whoever gives the highest money, will sell to whom." ”

Then he said, "But it seems that the public market may not be able to continue, after all, the resources are too small, and the military government is also a little undecided, how to deal with it." ”

In fact, frenzied mining is the main reason for the dwindle of jadeite raw materials

For example, the famous Tianlongsheng jadeite, that is, in the early nineties, the villagers of Myanmar found green 'colored' soil on the surface of Longken, which became the sprout of prospecting, and three years later found the original 'outcrop' head of the ore body under the green 'color' soil sprouts, and successively mined more than 20 'holes'.

This ore body is in the form of a belt, coiled like a dragon, and the locals shout "The dragon is born." uu read the book (). "Due to the huge amount of mining, it only took six or seven years for Tianlongsheng jadeite to be basically exhausted.

As they said this, they entered the mine.

There was a heavily guarded atmosphere, guarded by armed guards everywhere, cameras in important places, and some tall and ferocious hounds, led around.

If you pay a little more attention, you can find that among some tents next to it, there are government personnel stationed there, and Lin Xiao even saw the packing box of Stinger missiles or something.

"No wonder I heard that the profits of operating jadeite are higher than drugs." After Lin Xiao saw it, he said with a little emotion, "I didn't believe it before, but now that I see this formation, I think it's really possible."

"That is, running a jadeite business, although it is full of risks, but if you have good luck, you can indeed get rich overnight." Peng Pu nodded in agreement.

Under Peng's guidance, they entered the interior of the mine in the middle of the wire fence.
