Chapter 273 Open the mountain to pick jade
After five or six hours of bumps. The banker returned to the Kunlun Mountains and ordered the corpse to transfer. As the rainy season is approaching, the mountain road will be more difficult to walk, and fewer people will enter the mountain than yesterday.
But there are more than 20 donkeys in the transit station, which makes Zhuang Rui feel a little fresh. From the comic strip, I know the story of Afanti riding a donkey. Is it possible that you have to ride a donkey up the mountain?
Zhuang Rui's idea has become a reality. Twenty of the twenty-six donkeys are used for camel transportation materials, and the remaining six are for people to ride. After unloading the supplies on the truck and putting them on the donkey, the long team entered the Kunlun Mountain.
When watching cartoons, Zhuang Rui felt that it was very easy for Afanti to ride a donkey, and Zhang Guo rode a donkey, which seemed to be much easier than riding a horse. After the Jade Prince assigned him a donkey, Zhuang Rui was eager to ride it.
The donkey's size is much smaller than that of a horse. Its height is about centimeters. Its chest is slightly narrower, its limbs are thin, and its torso is short, so its height is equal to that of its growth. However, its hooves are small and solid. The donkey team is stepping on the mountain stone road
As far as the whole country is concerned, the distribution and utilization rate of donkeys is the highest in Xinjiang. Many Xinjiang people in mountainous areas are inseparable from donkeys in their daily life, like donkey-hide gelatin made from donkey skin, although it is valuable. However, Xinjiang is far less famous than Shandong, which is also the reason why more people in Xinjiang regard donkeys as partners and friends.
After riding on the donkey's back, Zhuang Rui felt uncomfortable, because the donkey's back was narrow and the meat was less, and it was very uncomfortable to sit on it. It was even more uncomfortable to walk up and down. In less than five minutes of riding up, Zhuang Rui retreated, but he looked at Adilla in front of him sitting comfortably On the back, the body floats up and down as the donkey walks, and Zhuang Rui admires it in his heart
already.
"The people in front of you pay attention, keep going forward, don't look back, and don't shout when you go over the mountain."
On the way to the bison ditch, you have to pass several extremely narrow mountain roads. Below the mountain road is a cliff dozens of meters high. For Zhuang Rui and his party, it is a relatively sad hurdle. There are experienced team members who are arranging the team.
This mountain road can still be passed by people, but for donkeys, it seems a little narrow. From time to time, stones are kicked off the mountain road by donkeys, making crisp noises.
"Ah, be careful" "Kakamati, don't look back, keep moving forward. Go ahead!" !
Suddenly, there was a noise in front of me. Then Zhuang Rui saw a donkey with supplies and rolled down the cliff with a miserable cry. Standing on it, you can clean and hear the sound of the donkey's body hitting the ground. The bloody appearance makes Zhuang Rui can't bear to look again
Eyes.
"Gam care of your donkey, don't look down, pass quickly."
Due to the experience of the leader, there was no riot in the front team, more than ten minutes later. The whole team passed through the death path. Everyone was in a cold sweat.
You know, the situation just now is really critical. If the leader fails to adjust and control the team in time to make other donkeys out of control, all the people walking in front of him are likely to be buried in this valley.
After this dangerous situation, the speed of the team has slowed down a lot and has been walking for nearly four days. I just came to the bison ditch.
In order to prevent sudden mountain torrents, the team did not camp at the mouth of the river, but went to a relatively high-lying Fang'an camp about a mile away from the mouth of the river. After a few hours of rest, Apulah took two people to the river mouth with Zhuang Rui.
"Uncle Tian, here it is, you see. The root of this rock is in the soil, and it is definitely not rushed down from the stop,"
Zhuang Rui put down the shovel in his hand and was a little short of breath. He just cleaned up the hard soil under the non-stone rock, which was not easy.
Adila squatted down, observed the rock carefully for a while, nodded and said, "Well, I didn't pay attention to it before. Let's go up a little further."
In fact, there is a stone at the foot of the mountain, which is too normal. Except for Zhuang Rui, I'm afraid no one will care about it.
The peaks of the bison ditch are mostly rocky and less earthy. Only low bushes can survive. Tall rocks can be seen everywhere, and several people follow the edge of the river. Walking upstream, Adirah was observing the mountain rocks exposed outside all the way. After walking about forty or fifty meters, Adila stopped.
"It's a bit like limestone formed by magma overflow after crustal changes"
After dealing with jade all his life, Adila can be regarded as a geological expert without a diploma. After looking at the mountains along the way, he came to a conclusion.
Due to long-term weathering, these rocks have long changed their shape and color. It is really difficult to see if you don't observe them carefully.
Zhuang Rui suggested to enter the mountain this time, so Axilla looked at Zhuang Rui and asked, "Xiao Zhuang, according to your opinion, where should we survey?"
"From the river hill" Zhuang Rui didn't think about it and said it casually. After saying it, he found something wrong. However, when he saw Adila nodding, he knew that he was similar to his own opinion.
"I think it's okay, Mr. Zhao, let's gather the young men to work
The Jade Prince acted very decisively. After setting the tone, he was ready to start work immediately.
You know, now the jade vein on Kunlun Mountain. Most of them are already being mined, but there are fewer and fewer new jade veins. If the jade vein can really be found this time, for Axela, the name of the jade prince will be further consolidated.
The roar of the diesel engine echoed in the river canyon. The diamond machine more than one meter high kept chiseling rocks from the rock wall plane, while Adilla stood next to the diamond machine. Carefully observing the situation in the rock wall, the rocks near the jade vein are usually easy to distinguish
.
More than two hours later, a human-shaped hole appeared under the huge rock wall.
Zhuang Rui stood not far away and watched the rock wall gradually pulled out a hole, and his heart became nervous. At a depth of more than one meter, he could see a piece of jade mountain material that weighed more than one meal, and this jade vein will also appear in the world.
"Slow, stop, stop."
Suddenly, Adirah shouted loudly. He stopped the diamond machine and drilled into the hole more than one meter high and more than two meters deep in the plane. When you come out again, hold a palm-sized piece in your hand
.
This stone is not like a mountain stone, because the whole stone is white crystal, a bit like coarse salt, reflecting dazzling light in the sunlight.
"There is jade, really jade, another diamond machine, open the hole a little bigger"
After the old man took the stone and muttered a few words to himself, he immediately ordered loudly, and the progress of the rock wall was suddenly accelerated a little.
"Uncle Tian, what's the point of this stone?"
Zhuang Rui leaned over and saw the old man holding a stone, looking at it as if he were looking at the baby.
"This is dolomite, which is also the associated mine of jade. When dolomite appears, you can basically determine the existence of jade veins nearby. Your opinion is accurate. There must be jade and veins here."
Adila smiled happily, and the wrinkles on her face spread out. She seemed to be a teenager. For Asura, who had been picking jade all her life, she could find a jade vein, just like an ancient man had the opportunity to carve a piece of peerless jade. That kind of satisfaction was indescribable. As the hole became bigger, the two diamond machines drilled into the depths at the same time, and the distance of more than one meter was quickly opened. The workers who cut the rock were very experienced. When the miner's lamp found the jade, they immediately turned off the diamond machine, rolled and climbed out of the hole, and shouted loudly to Adilla, "Your Majesty It's out of jade!"
The crowd around the mouth of the cave suddenly rose. They all relied on jade to eat. They understood how important it was to find a jade vein, and their faces showed excitement. Even Mr. Adila also raised his right arm and waved his fist fiercely.
When the jade material weighing more than a thousand catties was mined out of the cave, the crowd cheered. In addition to Zhuang Rui and Mengzi, the people present were all old jade pickers who had followed the Jade Prince for more than ten years and mined a new jade vein. For them, it will also be very profitable.
After a few circles around the jade, Adila said happily, "That's good, it's good. This jade vein is not worse than the Taleksu mine, and the jade quality is better"
"Uncle Tian, this is just ordinary blue and white jade, and the material can only be regarded as ordinary, right? I heard that Taleksu has mined mutton white jade.
Zhuang Rui knew that the Taleksu mine was the vein that had opened more than 60 tons of jade. He believed that the output of this jade vein would definitely exceed the Taleksu mine, but it was good for the jade quality mentioned by the old man. He didn't understand much.
"What do you know? This is just the edge of the jade vein. The more you dig in, the better jade will appear"
Adilla stared at Zhuang Rui, but his face was full of smiles. He had a hunch that this mine. It will become the largest jade mine in Xinjiang.
"Fourth brother, we have been here for five or six days. When will you go back to Beijing?
Sit in a vineyard open to tourists. Xu Daxing said bitterly to Ouyang Jun. You know, although the scenery here is good and the climate is cool, there are two crews waiting for her to go back to work in Beijing.
"How do I know that I can't live here until the boy comes out of the mountain."
Ouyang Jun viciously stuffed a grape into his mouth, but forgot to spit out the skin and swallowed the core of the belt into his stomach.
Prevention: The third update promises to be completed, and ask for a monthly ticket. I hope my friends will support us.
