Half a month has passed, and all the preparations for the treasure hunt have been completed. It is time for Chen Wenzhe to set off to look for the ancient tomb, at least to check the situation.
Maybe the little devil doesn't have any luck? Doesn't that give him an advantage?
He didn't value gold, but he was very keen on those burial objects of the King of Nanyue!
Especially the jade articles made by a large number of skilled craftsmen made his heart move.
Recently, Chen Wenzhe has been looking for a lot of information, especially information about the neon invasion of South Vietnam.
There were many things among them that he felt were rather strange when he looked at them.
For example, why did the South Vietnamese people block the streets to welcome Neon's invasion?
According to common sense, everyone hates the invaders very much, because these people kill innocent people and make everyone lose their stable life. All kinds of atrocities make everyone angry, and they simply want to cut them into pieces.
So is there any country that does not hate the invaders? Although this sounds a bit difficult to understand, in fact it does exist. This country is South Vietnam.
So do you know why when Neon invaded South Vietnam on a large scale, the people did not shout and kill them, but lined the streets to welcome them? The answer is only two words: national conditions.
This is actually a phenomenon caused by national conditions. We have to start with the historical process of South Vietnam.
Some countries in the world have maintained independence from the beginning of their establishment, and for a long time they have been the party that manages and controls others.
A country like this is always very averse to foreign aggression.
This is the case in China. No matter how fierce the internal fighting is, once an invader attacks, they will fight to the death.
But South Vietnam is different. South Vietnam had very little independence in its history.
It used to be our vassal state, and even its name was given by Emperor Jiaqing.
After the fall of the Qing government in China, it became a French colony.
Later, they became little devils, so South Vietnam actually wanted to be independent and would resist, but when the invaders invaded, their resistance was smaller.
Also, when France first colonized South Vietnam, its methods were very cruel.
From the perspective of France, South Vietnam is a tool and source of resources that can be used, so they can do evil without restraint.
France turned many South Vietnamese people into cheap labor, letting them do very heavy work, but the remuneration was very low, which cut off the livelihood of many South Vietnamese people. It can be said that the people of South Vietnam are in dire straits.
South Vietnam also organized an anti-French army at that time and tried to drive them out, but unfortunately it had no effect.
Neon reached some agreements with France at that time, so Neon then sent a large number of troops to South Vietnam.
At that time, Neon also promoted it very well, saying that it would not harm the local people. In addition, they invaded peacefully, so the South Vietnamese felt that they would not have to suffer when Neon came, so they naturally welcomed it.
So what happened next? Neon did not kill the people of South Vietnam, but they plundered a lot of resources from South Vietnam.
The last rations were gone, indirectly starving a large number of South Vietnamese to death.
The South Vietnamese thought they were welcoming a savior, but they did not expect that the jackals had left and the tigers and leopards came again. They lined the way to welcome the people, but instead pushed them into the abyss.
Invaders are never kind-hearted. The reason why South Vietnam did not hate the Neon People in the first place was largely because they were deceived.
After realizing that the country's situation was getting worse and worse, although it had become accustomed to being invaded and occupied, South Vietnam's sense of resistance became stronger and stronger, and after a hard battle, it finally gained freedom and independence.
Grain pot
In fact, these are not funny. What is really funny is that many people in South Vietnam still believe that it was the arrival of the Japanese army that made South Vietnam gain independence.
Of course, independence did not bring peace to this land. Since then, they have been on the path of opposing colonization and aggression.
In fact, Chen Wenzhe is still happy to see this kind of South Vietnam succeed.
The stupidity of others has nothing to do with him as a Chinese, but what has to do with him now is the plunder map of the little devil back then.
When entering a country, searching for resources is the first priority.
Food must be the first choice, otherwise the little devils would not have indirectly starved to death more than two million South Vietnamese.
Chen Wenzhe didn't care about this. He was concerned about the mineral deposits developed by the Japs in South Vietnam.
The largest number of them are iron ore, coal mines, etc.
As for gem mines, although they were plundered in those days, they were not strategic resources and would certainly not be developed immediately during the critical juncture of the war.
However, the South Vietnamese people were too cooperative back then, and with the large population in South Vietnam, there were still some greedy capitals in the country that were constantly developing gem mines, especially red and sapphire veins.
Perhaps it was because the little devils back then could not add more manpower to mine, or perhaps the confidentiality was too good, so the gem mine hidden in the mountains had been hidden for decades.
And quite coincidentally, this gem mine was recently discovered.
What's even better is that the person he discovered was the Li family, the same Li family who sold him the spinel.
His family mined spinel. As for the original ruby and sapphire veins, others mined it.
South Vietnam is a strange place. In fact, they discovered gem mines very early, but the major discoveries only started in the 1980s, and mechanized mining only started in the 1990s.
The various mineral resources in the central and northern mountainous areas are more difficult to explore and exploit because they are hidden deep in the mountains.
Especially for some small mineral veins, sometimes they are found but there is no money to mine them.
We couldn't even make ends meet, so we never mined.
This is the case with the ore vein discovered by the Li family.
It turns out that the reason why the little devils mine is entirely because their mining costs are low. It can also be said that there is no labor cost at all.
As long as they take care of the food, they can mine gems, so why wouldn't they do it?
Chen Wenzhe searched for a lot of information, locked the exact location, and also learned about the local situation.
Only then did Chen Wenzhe discover that there were not only red and sapphire veins, but also gold and even jade veins.
Many people think that Myanmar is the only source of jade, but this is actually wrong.
As we all know, more than 95% of commercial-grade jadeite in the current market comes from Myanmar, so jadeite is also called Burmese jade.
However, in addition to Myanmar's jade production, the world's main origins and mining countries for jade production also include Guama, Neon, England, Belarus, Spain and Australia.
Our country also produces jade, but the quality is not very good. Its characteristic is that very few are of spar grade, and most of them are hand-carved grade raw materials.
The place where my country's Nanyun and South Vietnam meet has always been rich in jade, but the best quality is found on the China-Myanmar border, where a large amount of jade is produced, and a small number of jade is also distributed in South Vietnam.
