Chapter 578 Selective leak detection
The next day, the 15th, when the sun first rose, the streets of Pagang became hot. Those who opened their stalls in the morning and closed their stalls after noon were open for business, and miners who sold rough jadeite went to the streets to set up stalls and sell fruits. For those who sell vegetables, the market town is truly like a city.

Myanmar is a tropical rain forest country with distinct rainy and dry seasons. During the rainy season every year, due to too much rain, landslides or mudslides are prone to occur. It is too dangerous to dig jadeite. .

During the rainy season, emerald mines cannot be dug, and the miners who make a living from mining will be idle. Some people will find other ways to make a living, some will grow crops, and some will have nothing to do.

There are also many miners who make a living on the streets of Pagang. When they can't find anything to do, they will gather at the end of the street to play cards and make small bets. If you walk around the street, you can see men and women wearing cages and flip-flops everywhere.

Yesterday, some shops were closed until the evening, so Le Yun didn't go all over. After breakfast, she went shopping again to find materials, and even if they encountered non-top quality materials and they were cheap, they also started.

After shaking for more than an hour, it started to rain again. The people on the streets of the market town couldn't be more calm. Those who set up stalls and strolled on the streets were all prepared. People stand under other people's eaves or umbrellas to avoid the rain.

Standing under a big umbrella outside a store to take shelter from the rain, Le Yun listened to other people's chat by the way, and continued shopping after the shower. She finished her shopping around noon and moved the jadeite stones she had bought back to the van.

Before lunch, the Atu driver was asked by the employer to invite a local miner as an informant to lead the way to find materials. He was very happy to help the employer to run errands, and he could get a hundred hardships for helping the employer to lead the way.

The miners have their own news channels, and the news spreads very quickly. The miners who have dug good materials and which have stones have almost all heard about them. Some old miners are better than mine owners or jade merchants. More proficient, know how to judge the quality of the shell and skin of the rough jadeite.

The miners hired by driver Atu are in their 40s and less than [-] years old. They are of the right age group, have enough experience, can play mobile phones, and have fast information flow.

The hired miners had dinner with their employers, and in the afternoon, they dutifully took their employers to hang out in the miners’ settlements. Atu driver wisely helped the employers drag their luggage and trailers to gain insight.

The sellers recommended by the middle-aged miners have all the goods in their hands. Some have three or five yuan, some have more than ten yuan, and two are small bosses who buy and wholesale rough stones to make a profit.

The place where the miners live is very simple. Most of the houses are simple iron houses. Some of them have a few tree stumps to support the roof, and the outside is fenced. When the transaction is negotiated, they are outside. The owner shows the stone.

Most of the rough jadeite in the jade field is in the hands of the field owner or the jade company. The quality is good, and the size is relatively large. Most of them are sent to Wacheng, or sent to the capital to participate in the public auction in August. Most of them are stranded in the field. Small wool.

The stones dug by the miners are generally sold to the farm owners at low prices. The miners who have left stones are mostly middle or upper-level miners, and the economy can afford it and they are not in a hurry to use the money, so they temporarily accumulate the stones and wait. At the right time, they will sell at a high price; some miners are under pressure, and they will sell at a low price when they dig stones to exchange money for life.

Middle-aged miners take their employers to scour for materials, and sometimes contact their counterparts to exchange news and screen for better sources of supply.

Le Yun has a high vision and is very picky, so seven or eight out of ten companies can't negotiate a deal. The stones that were not liked by the first few companies were not bought until a miner's house that bought them and resold them to make a difference. He also kept his word for a piece of material, and gave the middle-aged miner an extra reward of 50 yuan to show that he was satisfied with the source of goods he recommended.

I don't know if it was because of the extra rewards that the middle-aged miners recommended a better supply of goods, and Le Xiaoxiao also started to buy a few small pieces.

When it was half afternoon, the middle-aged shipper finally recommended a source of goods for him to press the bottom of the box: the inventory point of a jeweler company specializing in rough jadeite in Pagang, although most of the goods have been sent away, the overall inventory is more than anywhere else.

The place where the stock is kept is a private house, the place where the jade is placed is surrounded by walls, and the roof is covered with asbestos tiles. To be killed is to die in vain.

Some merchants came to see the goods, but the owner of the house who was in charge of management did not push three or four, but opened the door very readily, turned on the lights, and showed them generously.

There is not a lot of inventory, they are all medium and small wool materials, there are a lot of small wool materials, piled in piles like stones by the river, at least one ton or more; medium wool materials are relatively small, ranging from ten to dozens of pounds. There are also hundreds of yuan, and less than ten yuan for hundreds of pounds.

The lights were dim, and the room felt a little cramped.

Before entering the residential building, Le Yun observed the situation. On the second floor of the residential building, there were people staring at it, the one with the gun. People were watching the place where the wool was placed downstairs from the window. .

The light was not bright enough, so she took out a flashlight and walked towards the pile of woolen materials. She studied and admired it for 10 minutes in a corner of the small material area. She picked two palm-sized woolen materials, looked here and there, and picked out a total of 11 yuan of small materials. , put it in a corner, and then look at the medium-sized wool.

The price of wool is different depending on the place where the wool is piled up.

Le Yun, who is very familiar with the stone gambling method, is very experienced. He removes the selected materials and then picks other ones. It took nearly four to 10 minutes to pick and choose, and picked out a dozen pieces of medium-sized materials. The largest piece has 160 pieces. Kilogram.

The middle-aged miner who was the informant looked shocked. He was a big customer.

The manager holds the computer, and waits for the businesswoman to finish picking the materials, then negotiates the price. There are two medium-sized stones at 3000 yuan a catty, four medium-large stones at 300 yuan per catty, and five at 400 yuan per catty. ; Small materials cost 50 yuan a piece.

In line with the principle of saving money, Le Yun bargained friendly and unified the price of the two kinds of stones to 250 yuan per catty. The two parties reached an agreement, and the total amount of all wool was 22 yuan. all.

After the deal was negotiated, the owner of the house who was in charge of the management also helped to load the stones. The large and small stones were packed in woven bags, and then the goods were taken out of the warehouse and traded at the door of the house.

Jade field transactions are all cash transactions. Unless it is a large-scale transaction between companies, checks or transfers are accepted. For small transactions, one hand is delivered and the other is paid. After payment, everyone clears.

The bag with the rough stones is tied to the luggage trailer, which weighs several hundred kilograms. Le Yun carries a backpack with small stones weighing nearly one hundred kilograms in one hand and the trailer in one hand, which is easy and stress-free.

The long-haired businesswoman was short in stature, but surprisingly strong, the middle-aged miner and driver A Tu were stunned and fearful, and roughly understood why she dared to go deep into the jade field alone to scavenge for materials.

There are a lot of stones, and it is inconvenient to drill into the alley again. Le Xiaoxiao went back to the parking place, loaded the stones into the car, and left the driver to help guard the car. She herself and the middle-aged miner went shopping for goods.

Because of the fear of businesswomen, the middle-aged miner did not dare to feel restless. He dutifully recommended the sources of goods he knew, and took the businesswoman to run around the miners' settlement.

Even in the Jade Field, good materials are limited. Le Yun only found seven pieces of the favorite materials on the second trip. After sunset, she finished her work, returned to the van, put the stones on the car, locked the car, and the three of them went. Have a meal.

It was agreed to hire an informant with a salary of 200 yuan, and he paid [-] yuan in advance. After the meal, Le Xiao gave the other half to the middle-aged miner, and at the same time gave him another [-] yuan for hard work.

The middle-aged miner earns more money in a day than a normal month. He also ate two meals for free. He went home happily with his salary. When he left, he even explained that if he needed to go shopping for goods tomorrow, where should he be found? .

When the middle-aged miner left, Le Xiao gave the driver Ah Tu three pink-haired grandpas. He found a good informant, and he helped guard the car and gave him some hard work, so as not to make him feel cold.

The extra income of Atu driver was four hundred a day, and he grinned excitedly. When the employer went to take a bath, he willingly guarded the car, and then took him to the hotel to rest.

After a day and a half, I accumulated hundreds of pounds of stones. Considering the limited weight of the van, in the middle of the night, Le Yun transferred all the stones into the space.

The next day, when he was about to leave after breakfast, Ah Tu climbed into the car, feeling a little wrong and couldn't think of what was wrong. He drove the car for a while and finally found the clue. He turned his head to look behind, and found that it was empty. A sudden brake came to a stop, and his forehead was covered in sweat: "Nama, all your stones are gone!"

He didn't know the employer's full name, but only knew that the name had the character Na. According to the local custom, he was called Nama.

Le Yun, who was almost hit the glass by the sudden braking, just sat up and wanted to ask what was wrong, when she heard the driver scream, she stretched out her hand to press her temple: "Wu Shan, I forgot to tell you that my family sent someone to follow me, because there are a lot of rough jadeites. It's inconvenient to carry, I informed my family to come and take it last night."

The translation of Atu driver's name is Tushan in Chinese, which can be called Atu or Ashan, and Wu, not his surname, Burmese people do not have a surname, Wu is an honorific title, equivalent to "Mr.", suitable for men, for women The honorary title is "Du" and "Ma" is the honorific title for young women, meaning "sister", which is almost the meaning of girl in Chinese.

"Take... go?" Ah Tu murmured before he recovered from the shock.

"Yes, because my family members are inconvenient to show their faces, so I'm here to gamble on stones. They don't want people to see their faces, so they won't show up with me. They only came to pick up the goods in the middle of the night last night. There will be frequent occurrences, I hope it won't bother Wu Shan, if Wu Shan is bothered, I will pay you the fare, and I can rent another car."

"Ah ah, no, don't worry, it's nothing, I just thought that your stone was stolen while we were eating, and I was shocked." Hearing that the young Nama wanted to rent another car, A Tu recovered in a jiffy. The employer He is very generous, and the chartered car also includes food and lodging, as well as tips. He speaks a hundred times better than the previous employer who chartered the car. He does not want to lose such a good opportunity to make money.

"I generally can't lose my things. Whoever steals my things will not end well. My family can't be held accountable."

"Oh, it's fine if it wasn't stolen, Nama, let's keep going." A Tu broke out in cold sweat on his back, hurriedly started the car, and continued to the next entrance.

In the rainy season, sometimes it rains several times a day, and sometimes there is no rain for one day. The weather is fine that morning, and after [-] o'clock, it rains heavily, and it still rains while the sun comes out.

Originally, in terms of distance, it would take Atu driver’s van to reach the miners’ settlement at the other gate in about an hour. Due to the rain, there was a place on the road that was washed out of the pit by mountains and rivers. It took more than one minute to fill it with rocks. Go some time, it took more than two minutes to arrive.

Not every Changkou is a town like Pagang, and some of the miners' living quarters are scattered, like a small village, and not very lively.

The second Changkou area that Le Xiao went to was quite large, like a larger natural village.

After arriving in the field, the driver Atu showed his cleverness and went to find a clever miner as an informant to lead the way to find goods. He also stayed at the miner's house that night, just like staying in a hotel, 60 yuan per person per night.

She stayed at Changkou for one night, and then set off for another famous Changkou shopping mall the next day. She didn't ask for much, but only good quality, so she didn't find much goods in the first-hand market of Jade Changkou. , the goods of the two market entrances add up to less than one place in Pagang.

The goods are few, there is no transfer, and they are all stored in the car.

Le Xiao classmates Taobao from one field to another. In fact, the origin of jade is not everywhere, nor is it that you can dig jade with a few digs. The jade is hidden in the rock and soil.

There are pros and cons. The local area is rich in emeralds, which drives related economic development and earns countless taxes for the country. However, the places where emeralds are produced have been dug bare, causing great damage to the environment.

Because there is not too much time to spend, classmate Le did not have time to visit the field entrance to see what it looks like. There is no mining in the rainy season, and the field entrance is also guarded by the army to prevent people from stealing.

The employer goes to various places, and the driver is happy to make money. He takes the employer from here to there. The famous gates usually take a day, and some gates only stay for half a day. 6th of May.

On the 20th, classmate Le left the old field and went straight to the small field. On the way, he passed the new field and went around the two fields.

The small field area, also called the Nanchang area, is far from the old field area.

The small field is in the south of the old field, and there is a long distance in the middle. When you leave the old field, go out the mountain along the road, and then turn to the small field when you reach the road.

The van walked out of the old field area and stayed in a city for one night. Le Xiaoxiao left Xiaochang area in the morning on the 21st, and arrived at Xiaochang area before noon.

The jadeite mine in Xiaochang District is a primary deposit and an indispensable part of the jadeite mine in Myanmar.

The driver of Atu took his employer to the famous Nanqi Changkou for a long time, and the next day went to the most famous one called "Mo Liu".
