The reborn peasant girl has space for farming

Chapter 933 Jade is fake

Bai Meixi followed Sadiq to the mine. This place was twenty kilometers away from HT City. When they arrived, a lot of people had gathered around. Everyone was talking about the mined ore and all were bargaining.

"Shouldn't the ore mined here be sold by the state?" Bai Meixi saw that these people were talking to more than one person. They spoke dialects from various places and looked like regular customers here.

Compared with the people seen in the jade market, their expressions were calmer and they knew more about jade. No one dared to bid in front of them.

"This mine has been shut down a long time ago, and the state does not allow continued development, but the workers here have to make a living. Look at the area over there. It was originally the family area of ​​this mine. Thousands of people depend on this mine. Those who are alive, if we don’t continue to do this, everyone will starve to death.”

Sadiq sighed. The jade they produced here was originally nationally civilized. It was used as tribute to the emperor in the past. Many of the ornaments in the museum came from the jade they produced here.

But such a good thing has been given the reputation of hedonism. Someone wanted to blow up the entire mine before, completely cutting off this hedonism.

If the locals hadn't united as one and told them that if they blew up the mine, the entire mountain would collapse and most of the people in the city would die. Those people would have even buried the explosives.

So now they adopt a self-developed model. Whoever collects the stones will own it. Everyone relies on luck. As for the sales channels, they still use the same ones as before, so they can live a good life.

"But this is too dangerous. If no one maintains the mine tunnels, problems will definitely occur over time."

Bai Meixi became more and more worried after hearing that the mine collects data separately according to different areas and dates. This semi-contracting situation only stipulates income, but does not stipulate maintenance obligations. No one will spend more money on it. In terms of safety maintenance, mining accidents will definitely occur over time.

"Everyone can't worry about so much now. No one will take such risks if they can have enough to eat."

Sadiq felt helpless about the situation before him. This was already the best way to deal with the mine after it became self-operated.

"Look at what I have here. It's a semi-gambling place. It's already been opened."

The cry of one person in the crowd was particularly noticeable. The rough stones produced in the mine were all made of plugging materials, and no one had ever sold them with half of the materials. This person's behavior obviously disrupted the order of the entire market.

"Recently, there are less and less things coming out of this mine. In order to ensure everyone's interests, I have processed the rough stones into stone. You can see the water level of these semi-gambling materials. You can buy them with confidence, and I can make more money." Some."

The businessman with a foreign accent was the first to break the rules here. Although the other businessmen were dissatisfied, they could not let the businessman leave.

Sadiq and Bai Meixi also approached. He took a look at the stones and felt that they did not look like rough stones produced locally.

"Sister, you'd better not buy it. I think the size and color of this stone are not right. I can't be sure of stones from other places. The risk is too high."

Sadiq pointed at the egg white surface of the stone. The cut surface of this jade was actually a little blue. Although blue was more rare, he had bought stones from this mine many times and always felt something was wrong.

"Well, I listen to you." Bai Meixi put her nose over and smelled the surface of the stone. She always felt that there was a smell of chemicals. Her move attracted the stall owner's attention. The man didn't say anything, but he fiercely snatched the stone from her hand and threw it back into the basket.

Bai Meixi immediately determined that there was something fishy about this matter. She was afraid that these stones were made with chemicals as she thought. As long as she went back and unpacked the whole stone, she would find the problem.

Bai Meixi turned to other merchants. Several sellers who were familiar with Sadiq took out their own good jade after seeing him. Buying jade in the mine is different from buying jade in the market. You can choose merchants here. But as long as you are selected, you must buy all the stones.

"Is there such a rule? Then all the jade must be seen." Bai Meixi feels that this way of packaging and selling is very troublesome. There are at least several baskets of these jade, and it costs a lot to see each one. Most of the day.

"Sister Xiaobai, you can't use this method in the mine, otherwise you won't be able to do transactions at all. You just need to pick out a few pieces and have a look. Generally, the ores mined at the same time are of similar quality nearby."

Sadiq selected two houses for Baimeixi and bought about 500 kilograms of rough stones. These rough stones were first sent to Baimeixi's courtyard, and then she found someone to dispose of them.

"What should we do about those who bought fake jade? Is that the end of it?"

Bai Meixi is worried about those who buy fake jade. In the past, some people used ordinary stones to pass off as raw jade, but this was the first time for her that someone used chemical raw materials to pass off as jade, and the workmanship was good and very realistic.

"This is the first time I have seen this kind of thing. There have been people who cheated before, but they were very obvious and could be seen through at a glance. They have never made any money. Naturally, the locals will not care about it, but this time those people It seems to have a lot of background.”

Sadiq felt that those people had glued fake jade on top of the real jade. The real jade was not made of good material and might have major flaws, so he used this method to repair it.

This kind of half-truth is the most deceptive and the most troublesome.

"Sister Xiaobai, we have our own rules here. If those people cross the line and go too far, someone will deal with them."

Sadiq told Bai Meixi not to worry about these things. Someone will naturally deal with the aftermath. However, after this matter becomes a big deal, someone will definitely pay attention to the reopening of the mine. They will have to wait until it is completely sealed. Bring in some goods.

The first thing Bai Meixi did when she returned to the space was to ask Master Ma to analyze the stones to see the quality of this batch of stones.

"These are all sapphires, and the quality seems to be good. They should have been collected in the same mine. However, this mine seems to be almost exhausted, and the good materials that can be produced are getting less and less."

Master Ma is indeed a jade expert. Just by looking at the moss on the surface of the jade, he can tell whether it comes from the same mine. He unwrapped two pieces in front of Bai Meixi and asked about the price. He immediately felt that she would not buy it. If the remaining ore produces more jade, this business can make a lot of money.

"In this case, I will buy more goods and keep them in my hands to wait for appreciation."

Bai Meixi calculated the money in her hand and found that she still had about seven or eight thousand that could be moved. She gave all the money to Sadiq and asked him to buy it on her behalf. He would take a [-]% commission as his royalties.
