Chapter 652, 653 Super large mineral veins (two chapters in one)
General Thornton and Gobber stood up at the same time, both of them had a look of shock on their faces.
"Please tell me clearly, what happened in the mine?"
General Thornton asked urgently, and then the man noticed General Thornton beside him, stood up straight in a hurry, and took a gentle breath.
Uncle Gao also came over and looked at the man running anxiously. This man was about forty years old, and Gao Bo was still very impressed with him. He had been working in the gambling and mining team for more than ten years.
He is an experienced and stable person, and would never behave like this unless he encountered a particularly serious situation.
"General, in the No. 3 mine, according to the place Mr. Li pointed out, we dug almost thirty meters and hollowed out the weathered zone. Behind the weathered zone, it was all jade wool, and the quality was very high. They
Stay there and I will run over first to inform Uncle Gao and you!"
The man said slowly. After he finished speaking, he immediately went to the side and picked up the kettle, poured a large glass of water, and drank it all in one gulp. This hall was a temporary place where they usually gathered for meetings or summarized their work.
"The mine has been mined. This is impossible!"
General Thornton was a little dazed, and murmured that the ore could still be mined after the weathering zone. When the stone was dissolved, there was a large number of small tufts inside a piece of wool. Between these small tufts, a complete piece of
The jadeite is so beautiful that no one would believe it if I told it.
"Is it really an emerald mine?"
Gao Bo also asked again. He couldn't believe it either, fearing that these people had mistaken the ordinary stone layer for jade wool. However, this possibility was extremely small. The members of these gambling teams also had extremely rich knowledge.
Experience will prevent you from making such extremely low mistakes.
"It's absolutely true. We dug out a few pieces of wool and looked at them carefully. The skin of one piece fell off a little, and jadeite was exposed inside!"
The man immediately nodded vigorously. He understood the importance of this kind of matter very well. Even if he joked about this matter, he would not be able to save his life.
"Then the mine is really mined. Come on, come on, let's go take a look!"
General Thornton hurriedly walked out. At this time, his impatient character was completely exposed.
"General, wait, Mr. Li is still up there!" Gao Bo hurriedly grabbed General Thornton, with a look of helplessness on his face.
General Thornton was too anxious. This newly dug mine was pointed out by Li Yang. They left in such a hurry and left Li Yang here alone, who knew what others would think. Even if Li Yang had no idea, they
This approach also seems inappropriate. After all, Li Yang is an expert in mining and is the leader of their mining team.
When Uncle Gao reminded him, General Thornton immediately came to his senses and slapped his head hard: "See how excited I am, please wait for me first, I will go and invite Mr. Li myself!"
General Thornton calmed down his mood and walked slowly upstairs. After General Thornton went up, Gao Bo's heart started beating fast again.
He deserves to be Li Yang, he deserves to be the Jade Sage, he deserves to be a master who can even win against the Jade King.
Gao Bo didn't expect Li Yang to be so accomplished in gambling. Gao Bo remembered something again. When Sandara told him that Li Yang was a genius, he seemed very disapproving. Now he finally
Understand that there really are geniuses in this world.
A few minutes later, Li Yang and General Thornton went downstairs together, with the faint smile still on Li Yang's face.
Uncle Gao and the person who came to report the news stood up straight. They were already convinced by Li Yang. At this time, they only had respect for Li Yang in their hearts.
"Mr. Li, in the place you pointed out yesterday, we only dug 30 meters and found a new mine. Now the people over there are waiting for you to come and take a look!"
After Li Yang came down, Gao Bo immediately walked over and whispered that this was what the person just reported to him, and now he is reporting it to Li Yang.
"Is there really a mine?" Li Yang asked slowly, with a bit of surprise on his face.
"Yes, the mine is really mined, you are really amazing!"
Uncle Gao glanced at the person who reported the news. The person nodded hurriedly, stretched out his thumb, and looked at Li Yang with admiration.
A smile slowly appeared on Li Yang's face. He was very happy to be out of the mine, but there was no accident. He would not really be happy until he could not get out of the mine.
When he was in the mine yesterday morning, Li Yang discovered under the three-dimensional screen that there was a large jade mine behind the weathered zone. He also knew that if this weathered zone was dug forward from there, it would only take thirty meters to dig out.
New jade mine is coming.
The reason why he ordered fifty meters is to have a buffer distance. Everything he said was too absolute. Even if he is now the number one person in the stone gambling world, it will definitely arouse others' suspicion.
"Mr. Li, let's go over and take a look!"
General Thornton hurriedly said that he had long wanted to take a closer look at the mine. If it weren't for waiting for Li Yang to come with him, he would have run away by now.
"good!"
Li Yang nodded. He was also very curious about the situation behind the mine. Under the three-dimensional screen, he saw a new mine, and there were many jade veins behind it. Unfortunately, his special ability only had a range of fifty meters.
You can't see anything beyond twenty meters of the jadeite vein.
Now that we have dug to the vein, if we stand in the depths and look at it, we can observe a few tens of meters more and have a deeper understanding of this jade mine.
Li Yang walked in front, with General Thornton and Uncle Gao following him. They walked towards the No. 3 mine together excitedly.
Ten minutes later, Li Yang and the others arrived at the entrance of Mine No. 3, where several people were squatting. In front of these people were several newly dug pieces of wool.
Seeing this scene, everyone's pace quickened a bit. The faces of Gao Bo and General Thornton showed excitement again, and they hurried over.
The few people squatting here were all members of the gambling and mining team. They stood up in a hurry when they saw Li Yang and the others arriving.
After seeing these wool materials, Gao Bo couldn't help but walked over and grabbed a piece. After looking at it carefully, his face became even more excited: "This is real jade material, or high-quality jade material. This shows that our jade is
The mine has not been damaged by this weathering zone, and there are still a lot of jade mines in it!"
Several other people looked at Li Yang. Uncle Gao was actually looking at Li Yang when he spoke.
All of this was brought to them by Li Yang. They were already in despair, but Li Yang gave them hope again. In their eyes, Li Yang was the omnipotent person, and working with Li Yang was not a problem.
The most exciting.
"The existence of jadeite mines can prove that the weathering zone has indeed not destroyed this vein. Let's go down and have a look first!"
Li Yang smiled and nodded. He had seen these woolen materials before. The quality was good. It was slightly worse than the woolen materials under the mountain top, but not much different. They were also rare in Laochangkou.
The wool material is much better than the ordinary jadeite ore from Xinchangkou.
"Go down and have a look, go down and have a look!"
Gao Bo nodded fiercely. At this moment, he would no longer object to anything Li Yang said, and all the despair he felt before disappeared at this moment.
Some things can only be cherished after they are lost, but when the lost things are found again, the feeling becomes more complicated. At this time, both Gao Bo and General Thornton have a huge sense of happiness.
.
This made them more grateful to Li Yang, and at the same time they admired Li Yang even more.
Deep in the mine, Li Yang stood at the very back, the smile on his face getting thicker.
Standing here, he saw a lot of new things under the three-dimensional screen. Coupled with the inspections over the past few days, he had a deep study of the entire mine, although he could not clearly see the entire mine.
structure, but we have a general understanding of it.
If Li Yang's speculation is correct, then this jade mine is better than he thought before, and the previous mining plan will also need to be adjusted. This is not a simple large-scale mine.
Even if Li Yang's speculation is wrong, it doesn't matter. The mineral veins he has discovered so far are not connected together, which is enough for a large mineral vein. This means that no matter what he bets this time,
None of the mines collapsed, but the bets still went up.
"General Thornton, Uncle Gao, let's go back first, some things need to be rearranged!"
Li Yang turned around and said slowly, and the few people following him nodded without hesitation. Li Yang is an expert in gambling and has the right to adjust everything here at any time.
Returning to the lobby of the small building, Li Yang immediately took out a map. This was a newly drawn map of the mining area. It was just the distribution of their mine. Li Yang picked up a pen and kept drawing something on it.
, and after a while he nodded with satisfaction.
"Mr. Li, is this what you drew?"
Gao Bo looked at the map in surprise. In addition to the top of the mountain where the jade mine was first discovered, three more places were drawn within a kilometer around Li Yang. These three places were also marked with several red circles.
lock up.
Li Yang put down his pen, stared at the map, and said softly: "These places may continue to mine!"
"Continue to mine?"
General Thornton and Uncle Gao were both stunned. General Thornton hurriedly came over and looked carefully at the places Li Yang had newly drawn.
"There are mines in these places, could this be it?"
Gao Bo suddenly raised his head and looked at Li Yang with a horrified face. His heart was beating rapidly, and it reached a peak in a while. Gao Bo even felt that if his heartbeat continued to speed up, his heart would even jump.
come out.
Li Yang nodded silently and said slowly: "These are probably associated mines!"
Associated mines, really associated mines. After hearing Li Yang's explanation, Gao Bo suddenly felt dizzy. This was a sudden feeling of great happiness, which was almost unbearable.
Associated mines are a phenomenon in jadeite veins, but those with associated mines are all extremely large veins. What Li Yang said was tantamount to telling them that this vein is likely to be an extremely large vein.
With three associated mines and such a large scope, it is not an ordinary extra-large mineral vein, it is a qualification that only super-large mineral veins have. Not to mention Uncle Gao, even General Thornton is sitting with a dull look on his face.
There.
A very large mineral vein, which has not appeared for more than ten years. A very large mineral vein is enough to support a family from scratch, from weak to glorious.
The Thornton family was only a very small family back then. It slowly developed after Thornton's grandfather obtained a very large mine decades ago. However, the value of jade was not that high at that time, and everyone was concerned about this kind of
The mine had not been paid much attention yet, so Grandpa Thornton was given this opportunity.
Nowadays, super-large mineral veins can be said to have disappeared. Thornton knows very well that since the last super-large mineral vein was discovered fifteen years ago, it has never appeared again.
Ordinary medium-sized ore veins can be mined for two years, large ore veins can be mined for four to five years, extra-large ore veins can be mined for seven or eight years, and very large ore veins can definitely be mined for more than ten years.
The time mentioned here refers to full-scale mining.
"Mr. Li, are you sure?"
General Thornton suppressed his heart and asked in a low voice and carefully. He was really afraid that God was playing a joke on him.
Li Yang thought for a moment and replied slowly: "I'm 80% sure. I can't say how much jade material these mines can produce!"
General Thornton and Gao Bo glanced at each other, and both of them saw the surprise in the other's eyes.
80% certainty is enough, not to mention 80%, even 50% hope that they will go all out to take the gamble. Super large mine, with this mine, their family can guarantee that they will be worry-free for at least ten years.
If they continue to work hard, they may be able to find more jade mines.
The possibility of this wish coming true is very high. As long as Li Yang helps them bet on mines, it will definitely not be a problem to build several new mines within ten years.
At this time, even General Thornton and Gao Bo also had a blind sense of trust in Li Yang.
Both of them looked at Li Yang, and their moods were the most complicated at this time. Just like when betting on stones, the good ice species ended up ruining the bet, but after the next cut, you found that the wool inside had mutated and appeared again.
I got a new kind of glass wool, and the color is the best. My joy at this time cannot be expressed in words.
This is how two people feel now.
General Thornton looked straight at the map of the mining area. The more he looked at it, the more fiery his eyes became. He wished he could dig up all the places drawn by Li Yang now to see how much jade material was inside.
"Mr. Li, what's going on with that weathered zone? Why didn't the weathered zone cause damage to the jadeite mine?"
Gao Bo suddenly thought of this question and hurriedly asked Li Yang. Gao Bo had an intuition in his heart that Li Yang must know the reason why the weathering zone did not destroy the mineral veins, and he was very curious about this.
"Uncle Gao, is that weathered belt definitely produced in this mountain?"
Li Yang smiled. He did not answer Gao Bo's question, but asked instead. Gao Bo was stunned for a moment. He really didn't know how to answer Li Yang's question.
Weathering zones are usually produced within mountains. This is basic common sense.
But this is just basic common sense. No one says where the weathering zone appears, this weathering zone must have been generated. It’s just that everyone subconsciously regards the place where the weathering zone is found as the place where it was generated.
"You mean, this weathered zone has nothing to do with this mountain?" Uncle Gao asked in a low voice, and General Thornton looked straight at Li Yang.
Li Yang nodded again and said: "Yes, this is my guess. This weathering zone may have originally appeared on the nearby mountains. It was moved here after a crustal movement or a severe earthquake, and then was moved here.
This mountain is deeply buried inside. This can also explain why such a fragile fully weathered zone has remained despite so many earthquakes and other disasters and has not completely dissipated!"
Uncle Gao and General Thornton looked at each other again, and both of them nodded along with Li Yang. Li Yang's explanation really made sense. If so, it could also explain many other reasons.
There was a violent crustal movement here, which squeezed other mountain weathering zones here, and those associated minerals may have been brought about by the crustal movement, and eventually combined to form a super-large mineral vein.
In this way, everything was explained, and the two of them suddenly admired Li Yang even more.
In fact, Li Yang didn't know whether the specific reason was this. With his special ability, he could observe the edge of the weathering zone, and indeed found that the weathering zone was incompatible with the mountain. It didn't look like something symbiotic, but more like it was squeezed inside.
of.
And those associated mines do indeed exist, which may be the only explanation.
No matter what the reason is, no one can find out what happened tens of millions of years ago, and no one cares about it. As long as this mine still exists and can continue to bring them benefits.
After the new mine was dug in the No. 3 mine, each member of the gambling team became more energetic. Li Yang did not tell them about the super large vein, and it was still kept secret until it was confirmed.
However, General Thornton has secretly begun to send additional soldiers. It is really a very large mine, and the protection measures here need to be even stricter.
In the following days, Li Yang studied the specimens of the three associated mines. Many of the specimens showed very favorable results. It is very likely that this is a super-large mineral vein, or a large ore group.
The benefits that this mine can bring are absolutely huge, as you can see from the smile on General Thornton's face that has not disappeared in the past few days.
Three days later, Li Yang returned to Wacheng from the mining area. The matter of the super-large mineral veins was basically confirmed. As long as they mined according to the place Li Yang pointed out, something similar to the last regolith would not happen again. Li Yang
There is no need to stay there anymore.
General Thornton has not returned. Such a mine needs him to stay in person to preside over it.
Here in Wa City, five special jade auctions have ended. Except for several top-grade jade pieces from Li Yang, other jadeite has generated a total turnover of 1.26 billion yuan. The most rare thing is that the auction volume
There were more than two hundred pieces of jade, not one of which was unsold.
Not one piece of jadeite was unsold, which shows the quality of this auction. The raw materials Li Yang selected and the jadeite extracted are of high value and are absolutely attractive.
This made the CEOs of the jewelry companies who participated in the auction even more lamented that he was indeed a man who could even win a bet on the Jade King. The future will be the era of Beisheng. If there is a chance in the future, they must have a good relationship with this young man.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the helicopter Li Yang was riding in slowly landed behind the manor. Li Yang, Wang Jiajia and the others got off the helicopter. What Wang Jiajia likes to do the most these days is to watch Li Yang from a distance.
She had never thought that Li Yang had such a mature charm despite his calm command in the mining area.
"Mr. Li, you are back!"
Sandara was the first to come forward. The news about the super-large mineral vein had not yet spread, but as the heir of the family, he already knew the news, which made him even more grateful to Li Yang.
Sandara knew very well what such a mine meant to their family. With this mine, all the previous crises would disappear, and he no longer had to worry about anything before he took over the family.
"Boss, you came back late. If you had come back in the morning, you would have seen how anxious those people were when bidding for glass-grown jadeite!" Li Can from behind suddenly squeezed over and said loudly and proudly.
He presided over the auction of the last few pieces of glass jadeite. Whenever glass jadeite appeared, there would be a rush to buy it. There was no need for the auctioneer to specifically raise the price. In addition, Li Can had experience in auctioning glass jadeite, so Zheng Kaida agreed to the final decision.
Give him a few pieces of jade.
Those pieces of jadeite sold for more than 200 million, one-sixth of the transaction volume. No wonder Li Can is so proud.
“If there’s a video, I’ll look back at it!”
Li Yang laughed loudly and looked at the familiar faces in front of him, such as Li Can, Sima Lin, Zheng Kaida, and Liu Jun, which made him very happy. These people were his real friends.
"Mr. Li!"
Another person came up from behind Sundara. Li Yang turned around quickly and realized that Lin Lang was also here.
"Mr. Lin, are you there too?"
"I'm waiting for you here specially. After seeing you, I can return to Canada!"
Lin Lang said with a smile, he still felt a little regretful in his heart. Those pieces of top-quality jade Li Yang were not auctioned, so he had no chance to get them.
"Mr. Lin, I will not sell those pieces of top-quality jadeite, not to you, nor to anyone else!"
There was a hint of surprise on Li Yang's face, and he immediately thought of those top-quality jadeite pieces, so he simply said it first, saving the chance for him to refuse again when Lin Lang asked.
"I'm not here for those pieces of emerald!"
Lin Lang smiled and shook his head, then continued: "In early March next year, Canada will hold the first International Art Exchange Conference. Mr. Li hopes to attend if he has time. Your invitation letter will be sent directly to me.
Just wanted to give you some advance notice!”
Li Yang was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked Lin Lang what this international art exchange conference was.
From Lin Lang, Li Yang finally learned that the so-called International Art Exchange Conference was actually a treasure appraisal conference, with collectors from more than fifty countries participating, and Lin Lang was the organizer.
Although this treasure appraisal conference is the first one, the countries that have been invited attach great importance to it, and there will be many famous works of art at home and abroad. Lin Lang hopes that Li Yang can bring his longevity bowl to participate.
Let people from other countries take a good look at their Chinese national treasures.
