The call was from Zhu Feng. Although Zhu Feng arrived earlier than Chen Ran, he went to Wa City first, which is Mandalay, the second largest city in Myanmar.
Mandalay is located in the inland north-central part of Myanmar. It is the place where several ancient dynasties in Myanmar once established their capitals. It is also a city where overseas Chinese gather in large numbers. At the same time, the Mandalay area is also a Buddhist holy land in Myanmar and is listed as a United Nations World Cultural Heritage.
, there are many monuments to see.
Of course, Zhu Feng did not go there to worship Buddha. Mandalay was also the origin of stone gambling in Myanmar. In the past, the main concentration of woolen materials was in Mandalay, but it was later concentrated in Yangon, the original capital of Myanmar, and then moved to another place.
When we arrived in Naypyidaw, Mandalay was the place where we passed several old mines in northern Myanmar.
Zhu Feng called to tell Chen Ran that he had returned from Mandalay and asked where Chen Ran was. After learning that Chen Ran was at the auction venue, he made an appointment with Chen Ran to have lunch together.
Chen Ran naturally agreed. Huang Shangping, Zhongyu and Zhu Feng knew each other well. He was going to ask them to go with him, but who knew that the two of them had already eaten.
The public sale time is limited and there is a lot of raw material. For jewelers, participating in the public sale is like participating in a battle. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a race against time. Therefore, in order to save time, many jewelers bring their own dry food.
Or you can arrange for someone to deliver the meal directly to your door, so you can have a quick bite and then continue reading the material.
The smaller the company, the more necessary it is to do this, because small companies have less funds on hand and have fewer choices, so they naturally have to select the most suitable wool materials for their bids based on their financial situation.
Chen Ran saw that both of them were focused on the materials at the venue, so he didn't force them. He gave them his mobile phone number and asked them to keep in touch with him at any time, and then left the venue.
When leaving the venue, Chen Ran saw a lot of acquaintances, but he didn't know each other. They were either familiar with each other in Tengchong or they were jewelers who came with them on a chartered flight from the China Treasure Association.
Ordinarily Chen Ran was very excited. Although the final bet with Wu Laosan was secretly conducted, he had won two games in a row before, and later Chen Ran even bought the winning bid.
After learning it, we finally found the unique national treasure "Peach Tree".
In fact, Chen Ran is still very famous in the stone gambling world, but how can I put it? Everyone knows that there is such a person, but they don’t know that this person is Chen Ran. Even those who have met Chen Ran have only met him.
After just one visit, there will be no impression at all later on, especially since Chen Ran has changed a lot in both temperament and body shape compared to that time.
As a result, even people who had met Chen Ran once before now have no impression of Chen Ran, and the jewelers who came together only regarded Chen Ran as a rich young man who came to play. Naturally, they would not
care.
Chen Ran asked Feng Xianjun to drive back to the manor first. Wu Laosan, who came with him, was still in the manor, so he had to call him for dinner.
The previous capital of Myanmar was Yangon, but in 2005 the military government at the time suddenly moved the government to a mountainous forest 400 kilometers north of Yangon. Because it is in a mountainous forest, Naypyitaw's urbanization is very strange.
First, there are many trees, vegetation, and mountains. Second, the terrain is very strange. Third, many government departments are located in different valleys. Fourth, the administrative, military, commercial, and living areas of the capital are all independent and mutually exclusive.
They may be separated by several kilometers or even dozens of kilometers, and the place between them may be completely blank.
The manor arranged by Qinglong for Chen Ran is located in a valley not far from the public sale venue. The environment is very elegant, with mountains and water, and the manor is not an ordinary big or ordinary luxury. It is not considered a castle.
Pass.
There are big shady trees and vegetation on both sides from the road to the entrance of the manor. Stepping here will make people feel cool down from the scorching heat. There is a distance of nearly one hundred meters from the entrance to the front of the villa.
Next to it is a soft lawn, with various exotic flowers and plants in the middle.
Qinglong's strength can undoubtedly be seen from this manor alone, and such a manor is just a place for him to entertain guests.
In addition to the guards at the door, there were also some staff and servants in the manor. When Chen Ran returned to the villa, the servants served him ice-cold wine and told him that Wu Laosan was in the back mountain.
After drinking a bowl of wine, Chen Ran walked through the villa to the back mountain. It was said to be the back mountain, but in fact, behind the villa was a lake, or a large river. There were reeds and connected wooden bridges on both sides of the river.
There are even pavilions and wooden houses in the middle of the river. At the same time, there is a hill across the river. The hill is full of big trees and vegetation that cover the sky, so that the pavilions and wooden houses above the river are under the shade, so although
It's extremely hot outside, but it's very cool here. It's a great summer resort.
When Chen Ran arrived at the back mountain, he saw Wu Laosan sitting on the edge of the wooden house fishing.
"Master Chen."
Before Chen Ran could reach him, the young man who was half-lying on the side railing not far behind Wu Laosan stood up and nodded to Chen Ran.
This young man is none other than Xiao Hei, whom Yang Xinghe once asked to be Chen Ran's bodyguard.
This time Wu Laosan came to Myanmar and Yang Xinghe also asked him to come with him. In name, Wu Laosan got what he wanted this time and asked Xiao Hei to be his bodyguard. But in fact, what happened is probably only Yang Xinghe and
Xiaohei himself knows.
Chen Ran nodded in agreement and arrived in front of Wu Laosan.
"Third brother, you've been fishing all morning and you caught these two small fish?" Chen Ran looked at the container Wu Laosan used to hold the fish and found that there were only two small Burmese yellow croakers in it.
The river pond in front of you is the place where Qinglong fishes, so there are a wide range of fish species in it. Although Myanmar's fish are not as famous as jade, they are also one of Myanmar's pillar industries, with an annual export volume of
There are one billion U.S. dollars. If you think about Myanmar’s annual fiscal revenue of 10 billion U.S. dollars, you will know how impressive this billion U.S. dollars is.
"I've only been fishing for a while." Wu Laosan said angrily.
After learning that Chen Ran had prepared a total of 800 million euros for gambling on stones when he came to Myanmar this time, Wu Laosan didn't pay much attention to Chen Ran when he followed Chen Ran to Myanmar. However, after living in the manor, he didn't know what happened.
He thought it was because of Xiaoyu's phone call that his attitude towards Chen Ran had obviously changed a lot.
"How did you see today?" Wu Laosan was just sitting here fishing. It was too hot outside and he didn't want to go out, so he had to fish with a fishing rod. Now that Chen Ran is back, he put away the fishing rod.
stand up.
"It's not bad, there are some good ingredients."
Wu Laosan looked at Chen Ran and asked, "What's a good idea?"
"It will definitely go up." Seeing the way Wu Laosan looked at him, Chen Ran knew that Wu Laosan still had some doubts about him.
Chen Ran contacted Xiaoyu the night before yesterday. Xiaoyu did not return to China with the leader's team, but instead went to the United States. He said that a friend discovered that her mother seemed to have appeared in Los Angeles, so she went to take a look.
Chen Ran naturally also told Xiaoyu about his situation.
Xiaoyu also called Wu Laosan at noon yesterday. Wu Laosan followed him not because Xiaoyu called him. Before contacting Xiaoyu, when he learned that Chen Ran was coming to Myanmar, he and Chen Ran
I promised I would follow.
Xiaoyu knew about Chen Ran's ability, and also knew about Chen Ran's ability to gamble with stones. When she called Wu Laosan, she obviously revealed some things to Wu Laosan, but she probably only told Wu Laosan some things and did not tell Chen Ran explicitly.
Ran's ability, otherwise Wu Laosan wouldn't always look at Chen Ran with an inquiring look.
When he was on the phone with Xiaoyu, Chen Ran said that he would help Wu Laosan choose wool. From this, he learned that Xiaoyu called Wu Laosan and saw the way Wu Laosan looked at him. He knew that Xiaoyu must
It was agreed upon with Wu Laosan.
He didn't ask much, just asked how much money Wu Laosan could prepare.
Wu Laosan seemed to be a little hesitant, but after hesitating for a long time, he made up his mind and quoted Chen Ran an amount of 50 million euros.
In fact, Wu Laosan followed Chen Ran to Myanmar this time just for fun. He used to play stone gambling, but it was just casual. The same is true this time when he came to Myanmar. Therefore, he only brought two
Just a million euros.
He said that he had prepared 50 million euros but had to call someone to exchange them. With his status, it is naturally very simple to do this. 50 million euros is his entire net worth, and this is just because he wants to open a bank account.
The mining company had worked hard to raise it during this period. If he lost it, he would... But he believed that Xiaoyu would not cheat him. He did not trust anyone in this world and would not distrust Xiaoyu.
For Chen Ran, having an extra budget of 50 million euros will naturally allow him to purchase an additional batch of woolen materials. Although the ownership of this batch of woolen materials belongs to Wu Laosan, it has no impact on him. Anyway, he can't
Nothing to lose.
Again, rather than letting other people make a fortune, it is better to give the opportunity to the people around you to make a fortune. Moreover, when the materials selected for Wu Laosan are solved, they will naturally be given priority to Jin Yuxuan. By then, Wu Laosan
Naturally, it is impossible to charge too high a price, and Jin Yuxuan can bring in some profits by making the materials into products and selling them.
…
Wu Laosan didn't ask anything and didn't ask any more questions. He hadn't thought about it carefully before. Now that his mind had changed and he thought about it carefully, he realized that Chen Ran was much more mysterious than he thought. The last time he gambled on stones in Tengchong, in
The gambling in the capital club, the importance of Mr. He of the He family, the identity of the deputy director of the General Staff Office, and it is said that Mr. Xia of the Military Commission is standing behind him... Are all these things that ordinary people can do?
Wu Laosan stopped asking, and Chen Ran naturally didn't say much. Then he told about having dinner with Zhu Feng. The two seemed to know each other, but what he didn't expect was that after hearing what he said, Wu Laosan
His face immediately became weird.
After snorting twice, Wu Laosan said "hehe" and asked with a sneer: "Do you know who Crazy Zhu is?"
