Global Treasure Hunting: From Penniless to Billionaire

I don’t know when my brother will go to Myanmar next time. I don’t ask for anything else, brother.

Just ask my brother to leave me a stone, I like the fun of cutting it myself, it doesn't matter whether I win or lose. "

Zhao An smiled and said, "It's easy to talk about. When the situation in Myanmar stabilizes, I will definitely go to Myanmar again. I will definitely inform Brother Zhao when the time comes."

Boss Zhao laughed and said, "Then I'll just wait for my brother's good news."

Ai Qingrou led Zhao An to chat with Jiang Shilin for a few more words, and Jiang Shilin enthusiastically said to Zhao An: "When I was first in Jiangcheng,

I knew that the little brother is not a thing in the pool, and now I have completely taken off, and I am still soaring above the nine heavens, "

Zhao An said humbly: "Where is it, Mr. Jiang is really flattering. When Mr. Jiang was in the emerald world

I'm still a boy with no hair. Since I entered the industry, I have often heard the legend of Mr. Jiang. "

Jiang Shilin said with a smile: "Haha, what is the legend about it? Didn't it just follow Ai Zhiyuan's ass back then and pick up some of his leftovers?"

Ai Qingrou smiled and said: "Mr. Jiang, don't say that! Who doesn't know that you, Mr. Jiang, are the only one in Pengcheng."

Jiang Shilin chuckled and said, "It seems that the Emerald Rivers and Lakes will be much more lively than before."

After a dinner party, Zhao An also got to know many people, most of them are rich merchants in the stone gambling industry,

There are also jewelers who are interested in chicken blood stones, hoping to see the newly opened mine here in Zhao An,

Can it break the cruel scene that Guilin chicken blood stone can't get on the table?

After the dinner, the people from Zhao's Mining arranged for the guests to stay in the hotel.

I don't know whether it was intentional or not, Ai Qingrou was arranged to be in the same hotel as Zhao An.

On the way to the hotel, Ai Qingrou invited Zhao An to ride in the same car, and Zhao An readily agreed.

Ai Qingrou looked at Zhao An, who was sitting upright beside her, and said calmly: "You know, what happened in Shencheng after you left?"

Zhao An smiled and said, "I haven't paid much attention to it. If there is any good news, let's hear it..."

This guy is playing dumb again.

Ai Qingrou said lightly: "My father is sitting in a wheelchair, trying to save Ai Shi from fire and water, but in my opinion, it is futile, but what I want to say is not just this."

Zhao An said: "Oh, is there any good news you want to share with me?"

Ai Qingrou rolled his eyes at him, and said: "The day after you left, Wang Yanbing's unknown condition worsened, and she died in Huashan Hospital that morning.

Luo Hengtao's case was also sentenced a few days ago. Because of intentional homicide and murder, he was sentenced to death by injection. The Luo family was completely ruined because Luo Junhao also died.

Luo Hengtao's lovers and their illegitimate children are busy fighting for Luo Hengtao's inheritance. "

Zhao An 'suddenly realized' and said: "You tell me this, the key is the illegitimate child. Tell me, what will happen to Ai Liangye."

"Ai Liangye beat Luo Junhao to death, which is manslaughter, and he was sentenced to 15 years," Ai Qingrou said with a smile, "I heard that Luo Hengtao's condition when he pleaded guilty was that Ai Liangye be charged with death. I'm a backstabber, but I didn't expect to choose Ai Liangye."

"Then where's your cheap stepmother?" Zhao An said, "That's called He Juan."

Ai Qingju said: "He Meijuan, like Ai Liangye, was punished for several crimes and sentenced to 15 years. Fortunately, my father sat in a wheelchair and vigorously mediated, but her tragic end could not be avoided."

Zhao An said with a smile: "It's not miserable at all, just because she caused you and me to almost die in the sea, it's not an exaggeration to sentence her to be shot on the spot."

Ai Qingrou glanced at Zhao An with a half-smile, and said, "I mean what my dad did, that's for me to see."

Zhao An pretended not to hear, and said: "Really, it doesn't matter, oops, the hotel is here, I have something to do, let's go first."

The car parked steadily in front of the hotel, Zhao An still didn't run away first, but walked to Ai Qingrou's car in a very gentlemanly manner, opened the door for her,

Ai Qingrou smiled, got out of the car gracefully, and said, "Thank you, but unfortunately, there is no tip."

Zhao An said with a smile, "It's my honor to serve you. Tips are of course better."

The two looked at each other and smiled, and went back to their rooms.

Silent all night.

The next day was the day when Zhao's Mining Chicken Blood Stone Mine started construction.

On this day, Fan Yang specially found someone to calculate it. The ceremony was scheduled to be held at [-] o'clock, and the ground was officially broken at [-] o'clock in the morning.

The company used more than ten vehicles, plus three buses, to send the guests to the mine site.

The scene was already decorated with colorful flags fluttering, and there were balloon streamers high in the sky, with words celebrating the start of work written on it.

Xu Wenqian, the CEO of the head office, personally acted as the host. This iceberg beauty rarely showed a faint smile on the rostrum, and said: "Respected leaders, ladies and gentlemen,

Thank you all very much for taking the time out of your busy schedule to participate in the groundbreaking ceremony of Zhao’s Mining in Dafang Mountain Chicken Blood Stone Mine, Longsheng County, Guangxi Province…”

After some opening remarks, Zhao An was asked to go up and say a few words, um, in fact, what he said was, "Please invite our young and promising Mr. Zhao to come on stage and give a speech." '

Zhao An took the microphone and walked onto the stage, seeing all the eyes looking at him from the audience, his heart was full of emotion and pride.

Chapter 102 The First Bloodstone

Zhao An smiled lightly and said: "In the current market and on the Internet, there are many prejudices against our Guilin chicken blood stones, which has led to our chicken blood stones not being very popular in the market.

But today, what I want to say is that the start of the mine of our Zhao Mining Industry means that this situation will be gone forever. Our Dafangshan mine will produce a large amount.

It is comparable to or even dare to say that it surpasses Jiangsu and Zhejiang Changhua's bloodstones, becoming the next top-quality mine that can produce glass frozen bloodstones and Dahongpao bloodstones.

And our mine also hopes to have the opportunity to cooperate closely with major domestic jewelry merchants in the future.

Finally, thank you for coming, I am Zhao An, let us work together to create more wealth.Thanks! "

The next step is the blessing ceremony. Generally, the groundbreaking of mines like this is very particular.

Fan Yang, the project manager, specially invited someone to choose today as an auspicious day, wishing you safety during the construction process,

Then there is the Feng Shui master, with Zhao An and the head of the mine, preparing tributes, burning incense and setting off firecrackers.

Then Master Feng Shui took another live rooster and prayed in all directions, Zhao An got closer and could barely hear:

Good times and good times, the mine opened.

The three-star arch shines, and the four directions are auspicious.

Congratulations from the six relatives, Qichang for a hundred generations.

Forever, forever.

Good luck and good luck.

Zhao An complained in his heart: Isn't it auspicious, are you eating chicken tonight? Look, the chicken is in your hands...

Seeing that the Fengshui master pinched the rooster's red crown, squeezed out the bright red blood, tapped three times in the air, and continued to chant:

This chicken is not a non-existent chicken, but a Jade Immortal Chicken in the sky. It has never flown in the world.

One mouthful for the sky, one mouthful for the earth, one mouthful for people, one mouthful for the day, one mouthful for the moon, one mouthful for the stars, one mouthful for the year, one mouthful for the month, and one mouthful for the hour...

After a lengthy prayer, the Feng Shui master threw away the rooster, picked up the white wine and prayed again. Finally, he drank three sips, spit it out, poured another three cups, and poured it on the ground.

Then he poured another glass for Zhao An, said some auspicious words, and Zhao An took out the prepared red envelope and presented it.

The Feng Shui master said, "It's time to break ground."

So Zhao An picked up the hoe, dug three times at the designated place, and then put a firecracker on it, and the whole ceremony was completed.

There is a saying that when the firecrackers are fired, more than a dozen excavators that have already been ready to go are dispatched in unison, heading up the mountain from all directions,

Not all of these excavators belonged to Zhao An Company, some belonged to local earthwork companies.

The current mine is not completely exposed, and there are still many places covered with thick soil.

So Fan Yang reported to Zhao An and simply outsourced the work to a local earthwork company and asked them to complete the work.

The project of digging away the soil covered by the mine in this way is called "Jiegaishan" in professional terms.

And Zhao's Mining also purchased five large excavators and two loaders, which were specially used to mine chicken blood stones.

In ancient times, bloodstone was mined. Because the bloodstone was exposed on the rock surface at that time, the ancients mined it according to the principle of thermal expansion and contraction.

Burn firewood on the heliotrope exposed on the surface of the rock. After the rock is completely heated, pour it with cold stream water to split the stone, and then pick the heliotrope easily with a shovel.

There are few cracks in this mining method, but most of the chicken blood stones are likely to be blackened or darkened before they are mined, and the mined amount is also very small.

But now with construction machinery and gunpowder blasting, production has become easier and more convenient.

Although it may cause some damage to the bloodstone, it is not worth mentioning compared to the output.

Fan Yang personally commanded an excavator with a breaker on its arm, and drove it to a designated location.

Zhao An told Fan Yang that this was a hint from another Feng Shui master, and it was specially used as a starting point for work.

In fact, Zhao An specially detected this location with his real eyes. There are several chicken blood stones hidden in the exposed jagged rocks, and one of them is the best among them.

Zhao An's Eye of True Seeing introduced this bloodstone like this:

Guilin chicken blood stone, weighing 4.4 kg, the color is vermilion and blood circulation, the texture is suet jelly, the clarity is flawless, and the blood volume is 35%.The estimated value is 45 RMB.

This does not show unprocessed, and directly gives an estimate, because the processing of bloodstone is different from that of jadeite.

Good bloodstones are not carved, and it is best to make a seal.It can be said that all carved chicken blood is generally used to cover up its flaws, so it is not expensive.

I saw the excavator master operating the breaker, nailing it on the stone, and it broke apart, and it didn't take long for the strange stone to shatter.

Of course, there is nothing this time, and the gravel is pushed aside with the chisel of the breaking hammer, and the next piece is continued.

About an hour later, Fan Yang, wearing a hard hat, rushed over with a fiery red stone in his hands.

While running, he shouted: "It's bleeding, it's bleeding!"

The guests with good ears commented one after another: "The construction has just started today, and the mountain has not been opened yet, so it's bleeding. I'm afraid it's not for a gimmick, bluffing people."

Someone agreed: "That's right, I heard that Mr. Zhao used to be a jadeite bettor. He doesn't know anything about bloodstones."

Some people also said: "I'm afraid I bought a stone from somewhere and used it as a gimmick today."

When Fan Yang ran up to him, he hugged the stone and said excitedly to Zhao An: "Mr. Zhao, you are really amazing. The direction the master pointed out is really auspicious. If you hit it from there, you will indeed bleed."

Zhao An took a look at the stone, took it, carried it to the rostrum and put it down, and said loudly, "This is the first chicken blood stone produced by our mine. Now everyone is invited to visit and judge."

The guests flocked forward, whether they believed or doubted, seeing is believing.

I saw this chicken blood stone, the vermilion blood color was uniformly distributed in lumps, the gorgeous blood color was congealed and thick, and the texture was fine, and there were still debris that had not been cleaned up on the suet jelly.

It's really a bloodstone, people's hearts are pounding, and it's obviously just mined, what does this mean,

It shows that Zhao An's mine is really as he said, with good output, high quality, and a bright future.

Jiang Shilin also looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao, this chicken blood stone is gorgeous in color, the thick blood color seems to be alive, and the quality of the frozen suet is also excellent.

So what I want to ask is, do you sell this chicken blood stone? "

Zhao An laughed and said: "It's okay to say anything else, this is the first bloodstone produced by my mine, and the commemorative significance is far greater than its value, so Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry.

But it doesn't matter, there are many opportunities for us to cooperate in the future. You can send your people to contact the person in charge of our company in detail. As for your old age, why don't you go to the thank you celebration banquet with me. "

Jiang Shilin laughed and said, "Okay, let's go!"

Chapter 103

Zhao An led a group of guests back to the hotel and hosted another banquet to thank the guests for their presence.

At the banquet, many guests engaged in the jewelry industry euphemistically expressed their intention to cooperate, and Zhao An pushed all of these to Xu Wenqian.

At first, this iceberg beauty also thought that Zhao An was the kind of nouveau riche who came to the company just for fun.

Even after buying the mine in Tanzania and starting production, it didn't change her mind.

As a result, the start of construction of the mine in Gui Province, especially the production of the first bloodstone, brought a 180-degree change in her impression of Zhao An.

At first, I felt that Zhao An was a person with real ability, and the usual decentralization was also regarded as trust in myself.

Occasionally, I heard some comments from other places. The emerald circle commented on Zhao An's past deeds, and I made up my own brain, which even raised Zhao An's image by three points.

He is more concerned about working for Zhao An, especially his job as CEO.

There was nothing to talk about at the luncheon, it was nothing more than Zhao An and the guests, blowing rainbow farts to each other, and everyone was adoring them. Zhao An seemed to have become a rising star in the world of jewelry and jade.

Especially after learning that Zhao An is in Tanzania and has two sapphire and tanzanite mines.

A fat-headed and big-eared businessman from Guangdong Province pulled Zhao An and kept pleading: "Brother Zhao,

Let’s not talk about anything else, can you give me a priority batch of sapphires produced by your company?”

Zhao An wondered: "Well, some of them have indeed been produced at present, but the logistics link at this stage has not been opened yet."
