"Is this thing valuable?" Brian looked at the stone and asked.

Zhang Chi said: "If the jadeite is valuable, but I don't know if it's jadeite."

"Can't you see?" Cannon was a little depressed, thinking that what you just said was the same as the truth, and now he said that he couldn't tell the difference, wasn't that poor and happy.

Zhang Chi was in a good mood at the moment, and opened his mouth to say: "Our family is an ordinary family, where do you know that thing, it's like the rough stone I take a diamond now, can you know that it's a diamond?" ”

"I really can't see it," Cannon said after a moment's thought.

Brian then asked, "Who buried this thing under the tree?" ”

"How do I know that?" Zhang Chi shook his head.

Talking to Cannon and Brian here, Zhang Chi stood directly outside the pit and dialed the phone.

It rang twice, and the phone went through.

"Found the cow?"

As soon as the phone rang, Merica's voice came from the other end, she was obviously joking, every day Zhang Chi would call home to talk about today's situation.

It's just that usually the call is made at night, but today it was suddenly changed to noon, and Merica started joking.

"I really found it"

Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Merica was still a little unconvinced, and opened her mouth to ask, "Then you let Cannon talk to me."

Cannon heard the voice, and didn't answer the phone, and said directly and loudly: "The boss has been found, more than the last time, hidden in a small wood, I really like the boss now when he says he wants to, last time it was like this, this time it's like this again, every time the boss, he can immediately pull out a herd of cows to ......."

Belch!

Zhang Chi was a little embarrassed, and said to Cannon, "What are you doing with all this?" ”

Although it is a good thing to find a cow, how can it sound so disgusting when you associate this with your own, and also, what is it to and not, and how elegant is it to use to go to the bathroom?

Bah!

Uneducated, despise you from the bottom of your heart.

"Hear it, I really found the herd, you send someone over, my current position is on the route we have prepared, a little further ahead of the third camp, on the hillside, there is a place of storm cloth not far away......".

Zhang Chi told Merika where he was now.

Where does Merica use it to locate, the location of the satellite phone is not easy to check, it is nothing more than giving money, and now that she has found so many cows, will Merica care if she gives a little money.

"Did you really find the herd?" Merica made sure again.

Zhang Chi couldn't stand it anymore, took his satellite phone to the side of a cow, and reached out to pat the cow.

"Come on, moo!"

The cow was also obedient, and opened his mouth to moo Merica.

"Really!"

Merika fully believed Zhang Chi's words, so she said: "You wait, I will arrange manpower today, and I will leave this afternoon at the latest, and tomorrow morning at the latest."

After saying that, Merica hung up the phone and began to call the helicopter rental company, and then recruited the cowboys of the ranch, at this time she didn't care about the cattle at home, anyway, these cattle are generally not lost, all of them are marked by their own pasture, and most of them can be found if they are lost.

Now the first priority is to drive the cattle that Zhang Chi found back to the pasture.

Merika is busy on her side, Zhang Chi and the others are idle and have nothing to do, and the cattle can't run away, because Zhang Chi didn't pay attention, the position of his cattle is a bit funny, there are cliffs on both sides, and the other side is not a cliff, but there is a broken crack, almost more than a meter wide, and ten meters deep.

So now Zhang Chi and a few people only need to stand here, and a group of cattle can't run.

Besides, the cattle don't want to run, they were confused when they came out, and they were eating grass in the gourd and living a beautiful little life, and suddenly they found themselves in this place, all of them are full of question marks, and some cows are still chewing the grass out of the gourd, and they haven't come back to their senses for a long time.

For the current environment, many cattle in the herd don't like it, but they can't help it, fortunately, Zhang Chi is here, they can rest assured, if it is like before, Zhang Chi throws them down and runs, this group of cattle will have several days to adapt to the environment.

Even so, many cattle are not accustomed to the living environment in the wild, they are all used to pampering the day, and now they have to find grass, as well as determine where the grass is delicious, such a troublesome thing, really make this group of cattle a little unaccustomed.

It's like a group of city kids suddenly returning to the countryside, and it's the same old countryside.

Zhang Chi and the three of them were pondering the stones.

The stone is quite big, and one person can't get it away at all, let alone one person, even if two or three people want to get the stone away, it's troublesome.

First of all, this is in the mountains, there are no bridges and no roads, and there are undulating mountains, if you want to get this thing away, it is not impossible to use horses, but it is definitely slow and outrageous.

Because there is no way for a horse to carry this stone, it is possible to pull it, but you want a horse-drawn cart in this place? Then you're really thinking too much.

Cannon said: "Let the boss prepare the stone opening tool, and let's open it into pieces and transport it back."

What Cannon said was obviously that he had never played with jadeite, originally a rough stone, you opened it into several pieces, wasn't it scolded, how could there be such a rough stone.

However, Zhang Chi is also a person who has never finished jade, and when he heard it, he thought that Cannon's idea was good.

"Well, it makes sense, it's really hard to get such a big piece back, and it's much better to make it small. But I have a method, it's easier than opening stone tools," Zhang Chi said.

Cannon was a little curious and asked, "What's the solution?" ”

Zhang Chi said: "Burn the fire, put this stone on the fire and burn it, and wait for it to be hot, and then pour cold water on it, so that the stone will naturally crack."

The method Zhang Chi said was the ancient stone quarrying method, in the past, people did not have modern tools for stone mining, and they used this method, setting up a firewood pile on the stone to burn, and then pouring cold water on the stone after the stone was hot.

When a hot stone encounters cold water, the temperature of the surface layer suddenly drops, but the temperature inside is still high, and the force generated by the temperature difference between the two can cause the stone to crack.

But Cannon didn't know that industrialization in the United States has been going on for a long time, let's take an example, the New York subway was established and opened to traffic in 1904.

The Qing Dynasty fell in 1912, that is to say, eight years after the establishment of the subway in New York, China, the Qing Dynasty fell to the country.

You calculate the time difference.

So Cannon, Brian and these people don't know this way of breaking stones, Canon came from a poor place, but South Americans everyone knows, the nature of the Latins, free and passionate, none of these words and diligence have the same meaning.

The two of them didn't know this method, but there was also a little advantage, that is, they both listened to Zhang Chi, anyway, they were waiting for Merica to send someone over, so they found firewood and started burning stones directly in this pit.

None of the three of them thought about how this tree could fall down when they pressed it, and no one cared, whether this stone was left by someone else, and they didn't care about anything here, because on the American side, the treasure found in the wild is yours, if you don't take it away, or hide it and be found by others, then it doesn't belong to you.

It can't be said that you find it and bury it, and it is still yours to be found by others, as long as you are not optimistic about this thing, the ownership will be transferred to others.

There is firewood here, and the direct fire burns directly, anyway, there is nothing to do for a while.

After burning for more than two hours, Zhang Chi also added a little fuel to it.

Waiting for the stones to be burned black, Zhang Chi felt that it was almost over, because he didn't dare to reach out and touch the surface of the stones.

"Water!"

Zhang Chi said.

Cannon said, "If you don't burn it for a while, maybe you can burn the stone apart."

Zhang Chi glanced at Cannon, thinking that this old boy was joking with himself, waiting for the stone to burn and crack by itself, you really dare to think about it!

Thinking of this, Zhang Chi directly picked up the bucket next to him and threw it at the stone.

As soon as the cold water touched the hot stone, a cloud of smoke immediately rose, and just as the smoke rose, the stone made a kaka sound

Zhang Chi continued to pour water on the stones, and the sound of Kaka was endless.

Waiting for the firewood to be soaked, no more mist to rise from the stones, and all the water poured on it flowed to the ground, Zhang Chi stopped.

The stone cracked, and five or six pieces, large and small, were cracked.

Zhang Chi, Cannon, and Brian looked at the cracked place of the stone, wanting to see the green inside.

It's a pity that Zhang Chi and the three of them think too much.

When the cracked stones are separated, some of them are green in the middle, but most of them are not green, but the stones are white.

Zhang Chi was not too disappointed, because he was Chinese, he had seen and heard the stories, and he also knew a little about this kind of jade falling and rising.

Anyway, he didn't spend much money on this stone, and now that it is cracked like this, he can't see the gem at all, in fact, there is no loss for him.

Zhang Chi picked up the piece that originally opened the small window, and found that this small window was quite capable of opening, the original green was like a piece, embedded in the stone, as soon as this small crack was removed, it looked like it was full of water-green stones, but in fact, it was almost half a centimeter thick.

This thing must be valuable, but Zhang Chi really can't say how much it is worth.

Just as Zhang Chi was looking at this stone, suddenly Brian shouted at Zhang Chi: "Boss, come and see."

Zhang Chi stretched out his head curiously and found Brian picking the stone with his hand again.

Zhang Chi thinks this kid is stupid, what kind of stone is he picking with his hands, don't he want his hands anymore?

Who knew that what made Zhang Chi dumbfounded was that as Brian pulled out more and more stone foam, there was actually a green stone inside.

"Well, there's something else," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Brian said, "Is this worth it?" ”

Cannon stretched out his head to look at it and said, "It's really worthless, this thing doesn't look as good as what I just saw."

"You know this?" Zhang Chi and Brian were both curious.

"You don't need to know this, you can see that it's worthless," Cannon said, "but there may be something valuable in this stone, boss, take everything back, and you can drive it slowly."

"Come, everyone will get a piece, everyone will have their luck," Zhang Chi said with a smile.

Cannon looked at Brian, and both of them shook their heads together, "You found it, not us together."

The two of them didn't take this thing seriously at all, and besides, it was helped out by the boss Fushu, and it didn't have much to do with them.
