After hearing Tongluo's explanation, Zhao Qin realized that the hammer was shaken down from the tree by the earthquake.

As luck would have it, as soon as I came down, I was hit by a stone.

Tongluo immediately thought of asking him for help, but after finally finding the place he was at before, he discovered that they had already evacuated, and the rain had washed away the smell of their movement.

I finally mustered up the courage to come to the human activity area, and I actually ran into him.

"Not bad. I didn't expect that after you shook hands and made peace, you were still a man of integrity and righteousness."

Under Zhao Qin's treatment, Tiechui gradually got better, but he was still a little weak, probably because he hadn't eaten for a long time.

"Tongluo, are there any bamboos around here?"

Tongluo led the way with his fat butt twisted, and Zhao Qin followed closely behind. When he saw a landslide on the mountain, Zhao Qin couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Fortunately, it was not the same area as before, and fortunately, there was no one living down there, otherwise, I would have lost my life.

He tripped and almost fell, and found that it was a stone that had rolled down. After he looked carefully, he exclaimed, "There is jade in this place?"

Just as he was about to pick it up for a closer look, Tongluo, who was walking in front of him, urged him to do so. He then remembered that saving the hammer was the most important thing.

After walking for about half an hour, Zhao Qin said to Chen Qian and the others who had been following him, "Come and help. Brother Xun, you chop some bamboos. Brother Jun, you and I will look for bamboo shoots."

After a busy period, we could only carry our tools back because we didn't bring any.

Seeing Tiechui eating frantically, Zhao Qin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "All of them are yours, eat slowly, Tongluo won't snatch them from you."

Tongluo bleated in a cold voice.

"Okay, you guys stay here and be well. It's getting dark and I should go back. If I have the chance, I will come here to see you."

Tongluo actually hugged his legs all of a sudden, and after a lot of persuasion, this guy was willing to let go.

Bidding farewell to the two bears, Zhao Qin quickened his pace and walked towards the landslide site.

"Aqin, you got the wrong direction." Chen Xun said anxiously.

"I know. I saw a rare thing at the place where the landslide just happened. Let's pick it up and go back."

When he got there, Zhao Qin found the stone with the help of the already weak natural light. He was too lazy to distinguish it carefully, so he just turned on the system and waited for the system's popular science.

He was right. This was indeed jade. Of course, it was not the jadeite he thought it was, but a local specialty - Longxi jade, also known as Min jade.

It is a type of nephrite. Like jadeite, it is multi-colored and has a variety of water qualities.

Of course, its price is far from that of jadeite, but in recent years, it has been generally recognized by the market, and its price has increased year by year.

High-quality Longxi jade is also hard to come by and is considered one of the top-grade jewelry.

The piece in his hand was of excellent quality, about the size of a football. He took the flashlight that Chen Xun brought with him and looked at it carefully. The color was yellowish green.

It is very gorgeous under the light, but the only flaw is that the whole stone is full of cracks. It is impossible to make a bracelet, or even a decent jade pendant.

It can make quite a few pendants, earrings, etc., and the system estimates the value at 2.5.

"Aqin..." Seeing that he was holding the things and was not moving for a long time, Chen Xun urged him again.

"Let's go, Brother Xun."

Qian Bijun took the stone from him and said, "Aqin, is this what you are looking for?"

"Yes, it is a kind of local jade. This piece should be of good quality."

When he returned to town with the samples, Wang Jiasheng came over eagerly and asked, "Where have you been? You didn't even answer the phone."

"Is there a signal?" The earthquake caused damage to the local base station and the signal has been interrupted.

"I just received a notification that the signal has been restored. Please check your phone."

Zhao Qin turned on his phone and said, "There's no signal. I turned it off and went to the mountains for a walk."

After making sure that the cell phone signal was restored, he immediately called his wife. Chen Xue had already heard about the earthquake and only calmed down after receiving his call.

"The news reported that a lot of people died. Are you sure everything is OK?"

"No, I just felt the ground shake a bit. Don't worry, everything is fine."

After chatting for about ten minutes, he hung up the phone. The next moment, the phone rang again. It was Fu Su who called. "How come you are so good at running? Why did you run to western Sichuan again?"

"Leader, how did you know that?"

Fu Su seemed to be in a good mood and laughed, "Boss Xu asked me to tell you something. I hope you don't refuse the interview. This is not a request, but a communication with you. You need to consider things from many aspects.

Remember what Mr. Xu told you before? The more important you are, the higher the level of protection you will receive.

Besides, I just don’t understand, this isn’t a bad thing, why are you rejecting it?”

"Leader, I've shown enough face..."

"Humph, if someone else has your achievements and is still so young, then his exposure will be ten or a hundred times that of you. I understand you. If you want to live an ordinary life, you must keep a low profile.

But sometimes, being high-profile is not a bad thing. I am conveying Mr. Xu's words. You can consider the details yourself."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Qin sighed and thought that these reporters were amazing. They actually persuaded the local leaders with just one phone call.

It was a coincidence that the city leaders and General Manager Xu were in the same batch of students at the Party School two years ago.

When Mr. Xu learned about the earthquake, he called to express his condolences. He said that Zhao Qin was here and actively participated in the rescue and performed very well. However, he seemed to have a misunderstanding with the media and refused to be interviewed.

After asking in detail, Mr. Xu thought this was a good thing, so he asked Fu Su to make such a call.

They had boxed lunches in the evening. Zhao Qin ate two servings by himself. But just as he finished, Cheng Lin came again. "Mr. Zhao, if it's convenient, can I interrupt your precious time? Don't worry, half an hour will be enough."

"I say you are really amazing. You even called the city leader of our city."

Cheng Lin was slightly startled. "No, the municipal party committee leader here asked me to add another interview, and said that you won't refuse this time."

Seeing that the other party did not seem to be faking it, Zhao Qin realized that there was something else going on. "Okay, actually I really don't have anything to ask. I just happened to be here and did what a person should do."

"Then why are you here?"

"I just happened to pass by. My master was practicing Taoism, and I was worried, so I followed him. As a result, this happened right after I arrived here. My master and his men worked day and night to treat the wounded. I can't just sit there and watch."

“As a billionaire…”

"Let me correct you. Money is just a tool. It doesn't mean I am nobler than anyone else. Secondly, I am a party member. I have an unshirkable responsibility and obligation to protect people's lives and property..."

The interview lasted for more than 20 minutes, and Zhao Qin finally said a lot of polite words. There was no other way, as many hidden secrets could not be told to outsiders.

Cheng Lin's earlier bad impression of Zhao Qin was also changed because of his simple words.

After the interview, Zhao Qin thought about leaving tomorrow, so he found Qi Jialin who had just been free, and asked, "Mayor Qi, the town suffered a disaster this time. Did the higher-ups mention any funding?"

Qi Jialin was startled, and immediately put on a bitter face, "That's what I said, but you also know that although our area is the worst hit, the affected area is still not small, so, alas..."

"I have a suggestion, do you think it's okay?"
