Global Treasure Hunting: From Penniless to Billionaire

"Last month, Min Aung established a transitional government. At the beginning, it was indeed opposed by many groups, but it did not become popular, and was soon suppressed by the National Defense Forces. Although there are still many large-scale guerrillas fighting small trouble,

But it is similar to the situation before the military riots. Damn it used to be like this in Myanmar. If you talk a few words, you will fuck the guy. What kind of democracy, what kind of human rights,

You can't get enough to eat, and you can talk about human rights..."

There are 135 ethnic groups in Myanmar, of which the Burmese account for two-thirds.

However, after the end of World War II, the Karen and Zen people in northern Myanmar began to struggle with the central government for more than 70 years. It was not until the signing of the National Ceasefire Agreement in 14 that this situation eased.

However, the military riots of the National Defense Forces have a tendency to raise the signs of civil war.

Once the civil war breaks out, Mandalay will be the first place to bear the brunt. No wonder Yuan Xiong invites to scold the street...

"Hey, don't talk about state affairs, don't talk about state affairs!" Zhao An persuaded: "How is the mining area recently? The output is going well!"

Speaking of this, Yuan Xiong got excited and said with a happy smile: "You don't know? The production of sapphires has soared in the past month.

A few days ago, I found a 10-carat top-quality star sapphire, which made the chickens of the two Wang brothers next door turn purple..."

"This time I heard that you are coming, so I hurriedly ran to my camp to see you, even the sheep were roasted by them..."

"Oh..." Zhao An narrowed his eyes and said, "Is this brother from the Wang family reliable? Just introduce him to me?"

I often heard Yuan Xiong talk about the Wang family brothers in Mogok. It was the Wang family brothers who helped Zhao An hire mercenaries in Ethiopia.

This time I said it was a visit, I guess I wanted Zhao An to return their favor...

In fact, it's normal. People die for money, and birds die for food. The Wang brothers have been in Mogok for so many years, and they haven't done anything good or bad.

I heard Yuan Xiong once said that in order to get Somchai's care, he often smuggled women from the dark web to give Somchai for entertainment...

"How should I put it, the brothers of the Wang family are quite reliable in front of me... Maybe it's because they are from China, and I've been in this business longer than them, and the two families are not far apart. We often drink together."

Now that Yuan Xiong said so, Zhao An couldn't comment, and instead asked, "What is Starlight Sapphire?"

"Star sapphire is also called star sapphire. After being polished into a cabochon, the top of the gem will show six star rays..."

Yuan Xiong explained: "Generally people are not too demanding about the color of starlight ruby ​​sapphire.

But there are still certain criteria for judging the starlight: Is the intersection point of the six star lines of the gemstone located in the center of the gemstone?

Is the star line complete and bright?Will the star lines move flexibly as the light and fingers turn?

The more it meets these criteria, the more valuable the gemstone will be. "

"So there is such a saying, so for example, if Starlight Red meets Pigeon Blood Red, how do they compare?" Zhao An asked.

Yuan Xiong laughed and said: "Pigeon's blood red without burning is the highest quality color among rubies, and rubies that can reach the level of pigeon's blood red are very rare.

The star ruby, like the star sapphire, has a special star effect. This is because there are a large number of gold filament-like inclusions inside the gem, and these inclusions are oriented.

Refraction occurs on the surface, producing star lines and forming a star effect, so star gems are also very rare...

Judging from the reaction in the market, the prices of pigeon blood red and starlight red of the same quality are not far apart, and the specifics even depend on the preferences of customers.

It's a pity that it is almost difficult to mine star gems in Myanmar now..."

Indeed, Zhao An has visited Mogok so many times, but he has hardly found this kind of starry red sapphire...

Seeing Zhao An's regretful expression, Yuan Xiong said with a smile: "Although Myanmar's output is very small, there is still a place with high output!"

Chapter 362 Toast

"Let me guess, you're not talking about Kashmir!"

Zhao An said.

Yuan Xiong shook his head: "It's not far away, and it's also in South Asia, but it's not Kashmir, it's Sri Lanka!"

"Sri Lanka?" Zhao An said thoughtfully: "I've never been to this place, I'll go and see if I have the chance, can I find a place and dig it to the bottom!~"

Yuan Xiong said happily: "Brother, if you make a move, it must be easy to catch, but I am too busy, otherwise, I will definitely follow my brother to eat and drink!"

There is one thing to say, Zhao An's property in Mogok must be inseparable from Yuan Xiong's seat, without his relationship, unless Zhao An came to watch it in person, or he would be coveted by others sooner or later.

And Yuan Xiong owns five mines, plus the five he partnered with Zhao An. Thanks to Yuan Xiong's strong ability, and Uncle Chen's help, otherwise, he really wouldn't be able to take care of them.

Gem mines are different from other mines. The value is high but the size is small. From time to time, workers who secretly hide gems appear. There is no strong person guarding them. After a long time, the atmosphere of the entire mining area will be ruined.

The two chatted happily and returned to Yuan Xiong's camp before they knew it.

In the open space in the middle of the camp, a large barbecue stove was set up, and there were seven or eight whole lambs on the stove, which were roasting in full swing.

Seeing the convoy coming back, two red-faced men crowded around Yuan Xiong's car with smiles on his face. Yuan Xiong hugged his neck as soon as he got out of the car, and shouted: "I'm just waiting for you, the fat sheep are all roasted, just waiting for you to drive." drank it!!!"

Yuan Xiong laughed and said: "Wait for me to be fake, wait for my Brother Zhao to be real!"

The two who were exposed were not angry, their faces were red anyway...

"What is true and false? Is my brother like that?"

"That's right, my brother is that kind of person, you underestimate us too!"

"So Brother Zhao, where are you..."

Zhao An got out of the car with a wry smile, stretched out his hand and said, "These two are the brothers of the Wang family. I was trapped in Ethiopia earlier, thanks to the help of the brothers of the Wang family!"

The older man smiled and shook hands with Zhao An and said, "I'm calling you brother, I recognize you as brother, my name is Wang Wenkuan, this is my brother Wang Wenxing,

I heard that Brother Zhao is also from Yunnan Province, and now we are fellow villagers and brothers, so it goes without saying that we have friendship. "

This is too familiar, and the enthusiastic Zhao An can't bear it...

Zhao An smiled awkwardly: "That's right..."

"It's been a day's journey, and it's a plane and a car. What do you want Brother Zhao to stand outside?"

It was Uncle Chen who spoke, who happened to rescue Zhao An.

"I'm the one who was being rude, brother Zhao, please come in and wash your face to relieve fatigue..."

When Zhao An came out after washing for a while, the Wang family brothers had already put a whole sheep on the table, and of course, wine bottles and cups were also on the table.

"You share the rest. If you don't have enough to eat, you'll bake it tomorrow! Damn it, only when you're full will you have the energy to work!"

Wang Wenkuan yelled at the mercenaries.

Several mercenary groups cheered enthusiastically.

At a table in a square shape, Yuan Xiong invited Uncle Chen to take the main seat, and asked Zhao An to sit beside him.

He also sat down and said: "The last time I went back, with the help of Brother Zhao, I found the remains of my parents, and also with the help of Brother Zhao, I found a good place for burial.

So for the first glass of wine today, I would like to thank Brother Zhao for his many times of help! "

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass and gestured to Zhao An, then drank it down in one gulp.

Zhao An didn't show any weakness either, and said in one gulp, "Brother Yuan, you're being polite, it's just a little effort!

Your respected parents will also be gratified to see you have achieved what you have now, and see Yuan Jiang and Yuan Jiang's two children so well-behaved, their spirits in heaven. "

Yuan Xiong patted Zhao An's shoulder without saying a word, but put down his glass and refilled it again, saying, "This second glass of wine should be toasted to Uncle Chen.

It was he who brought me from the wilderness to Burma, no matter how hard it was, he never gave up on me, supported me to grow up, marry a wife and have children,

Even now, I'm still thinking of doing something for me,

I won't say much else, and I understand the truth. There is an old saying that it is better to be kind than to be kind. Although Uncle Chen and I are not related by blood,

But I have always regarded him as my biological father, come to Uncle Chen, I respect you! "

Uncle Chen picked up his wine glass with moist eyes and said, "Good boy, poverty and wealth are all your own good fortune. Uncle is old and can't help you. While my body is still strong, I will help you look after the house... .”

......

After three glasses of wine, the atmosphere on the table became lively. Wang Wenxing didn't talk much, but just sipped his wine with a smile on his own.

Most of the time it was his brother Wang Wenkuan who was talking, and Wang Wenxing added a sentence from time to time to brighten up the atmosphere.

"Come here, Brother Zhao, try my harvesting skills. When I was in my hometown, I was doing catering. I have been in Myanmar for more than ten years, and my harvesting skills have not fallen..."

Wang Wenkuan greeted warmly.

Zhao An took the lamb chops from Wang Wenkuan on a plate, and before he could say thank you, Yuan Xiong tore down Wang Wenkuan's platform and said, "You are talking nonsense here, didn't you say that you sold stinky tofu in your hometown?

When did you become a catering business? ? ? "

Wang Wenkuan stared and said, "Why is stinky tofu not a food? Let me tell you, the stinky tofu in Dacaiyun Province is famous all over the country!"

The south of Caiyun is called Yunnan, so Dian Province is also called Caiyun Province.

Is that stinky tofu a meal?Strictly speaking, it counts...

Zhao An said with a smile: "Hey, let's talk about it, we don't want to be black in the region, let me taste it first, and then comment!"

Bite down and make a sizzling sound, the fat roasted lamb is full of fragrance,

"Well, it's really good!" Zhao An nodded while chewing, "It's delicious!"

Wang Wenkuan chuckled and said, "I'm not wrong, Brother Zhao, you can eat more if you like it, if you don't eat enough, I, Old Wang, will come over and bake some for you in a few days!

Don't just eat meat, come, drink! "

"Why don't you sing a toast song from our hometown!" Wang Wenxing said quietly.

Hearing this, Wang Wenkuan stood up happily and prepared to sing. He obviously has a social arrogance. As long as it is not me who is embarrassed, it is someone else.

"On this rare evening,

Guest from afar, you come to my house,

Cousin, you want to come for a drink,

Cousin, you come to drink too,

Cousin~

Do you want some wine..."

When they sang happily, Wang Wenxing also sang along, pouring wine into Zhao An's cup non-stop, and occasionally pouring a few glasses for Yuan Xiong.

"Old Cousin...

You want to drink!

let you drink,

Just drink..."

Seeing the two of them playing tricks, Zhao An would not refuse anyone who came, anyway, with his drinking capacity, he would not blush after drinking three to five catties.

Even if you drink endlessly and keep drinking, what is it!

In the end, the brothers of the Wang family were tired from singing and almost drunk from drinking. When they saw that Zhao An was still not drunk at all, they knew that they had met an expert.

Wang Wenkuan rubbed his face, looked at Zhao An anxiously and said, "Brother Zhao, brother, I am in trouble!"

Chapter 363

Wang Wenkuan complained to Zhao An with snot and tears: "Brother, brother, I am in trouble. I have no parents since I was a child. I dropped out of school and sold stinky tofu to bring up my brother. It is hard to grow up. , it's time to marry a wife..."

"In order to earn dowry money, I was tricked into going to Myanmar..."

"To satisfy Somchai's appetite, we brothers have done all sorts of wicked things..."

Taking advantage of Jiu Jin, Wang Wenkuan pulled Zhao An's clothes and said, "Brother, you have to help brother no matter what, and you can ask for any conditions.

My brother also stocked several Ukrainian girls with protruding and backwards, if you like it, I will send you all..."

"Stop! Stop! Stop! Stop..." Zhao An said angrily, "What are you talking about..."

Wang Wenkuan stared at his drunken eyes and said, "Don't you like Ukraine?

Don't worry, there are everything on the dark web, from Russia, Bolivia, Cambodia and Thailand, even if you like Africa and South America, my brother can find it for you! "

"This is such a mess..." Zhao An couldn't laugh or cry: "Brother Wang is drunk, let's talk about this matter tomorrow, good!"

After Zhao An said that, Wang Wenkuan didn't want to say anything more, and immediately put away his previous expression and said: "It's easy to say, it's the first time to drink with Brother Zhao today, and you must be happy.

Come let's have another drink! "

It perfectly interprets what life is like a play, it all depends on acting skills...

Men in Yunnan Province drink like soup, and Zhao An also knows that Wang Wenkuan doesn't get drunk that easily, but his face is reddish, and he looks very drunk.
