10079 New Urban Farmers Chapter 126: News of Dinosaur Jade (First Update)
"I can't just let it go like this. I'm going to break his legs and send him to jail!" Liu Jun said venomously. But then he thought of Zhang Guodong's murderous sweeping motion, the strength of which could break his bones, and his heart trembled. "Mom, look. My face is all swollen. The Liu family has lost all face!"
"Go back! Go find your deadbeat father, Yang Qin, you bitch, and those outsiders, we'll see!" Huang Shuli was furious, but when she saw villagers watching the spectacle of her and her son, she felt embarrassed and quickly pulled her son into the car and drove away.
The mother and son left.
"The girl from Anquan's family is definitely going to marry that fifth son of the Huang family!" a villager sighed. "The fifth son of the Huang family married a 'good' husband. He made a fortune illegally trading dinosaur fossils. Now he's causing trouble for the Anquan family, and nobody dares to do anything about it."
"Manage? How can you manage it? We're all from the same village, and besides, Huang's third son doesn't go to the village secretary or the village head. Everyone just turns a blind eye," another person said.
"There must have been a lot of dinosaur fossils stolen, right? The fifth son of the Huang family often drives here to buy fossils and makes a lot of money. I heard he even sells them overseas. He drives a Mercedes-Benz and his business is worth tens of millions! I heard that the fifth son of the Huang family has beaten up a lot of people and keeps going into the mountains. Has he found something good again?"
"Really? We've been exploring the mountains a lot. We haven't seen any fossils or anything just popping up out of the ground. If there were any, they'd be deep underground!"
"Keeping quiet is illegal. Let's not get involved or say anything. We'll see what opportunities for profit come up later."
Huang Shuli's husband, Liu Neng, is now worth tens of millions. He runs a foreign trade company, drives a Mercedes-Benz, and frequents luxury hotels. He's quite a wealthy local celebrity!
However, reselling dinosaur fossils is a serious crime, but some people always manage to slip through the cracks. The fossils are smuggled out, and in return, they bring back colorful banknotes.
But the risks are too high now, and with the establishment of dinosaur museums and research teams, it's become very difficult to find dinosaur fossils after years of excavation. Unless there's deep excavation!
But if we dig deeper, would anyone dare to be so blatant about it?
Therefore, without this source of goods, the fossil business becomes difficult.
But today's great news has spurred Liu Neng to the point of being stunned!
"Are those small rocks in the Dinosaur Mountains really jade veins? Golden jade? Are you sure?" In the office of Liu's Trading Company, the general manager and chairman, Liu Neng, with his protruding belly, leaned back in his executive chair. Upon hearing this news, he immediately straightened up, his face trembling with excitement.
The middle-aged man in front of them was a "jade exploration expert" hired by Liu Neng, who was an expert in jade mining.
On one occasion, Liu Neng led his men on an "exploration" of the Dinosaur Mountains in search of fossil sources. They accidentally discovered a small patch of pale golden-yellow stone embedded in the rock. At first, they didn't pay much attention to it, but after wiping away the dirt and removing it, they found that the stone was crystal clear with pale golden-yellow threads running through it, making it incredibly beautiful and noble.
He realized then that he might have found something good!
Even more surprisingly, in that small anomaly, he discovered a layer of golden veins, indicating that there were similar stones within it.
Do a good job of protecting the lowly!
Then, after this thing was brought back, it was immediately examined by experts. They were a little disappointed that it wasn't gold, but the examination results brought another surprise: it was jade. Rare and precious jade, especially imperial jade, often contains a trace of golden "bloodline." It is said that even more precious pieces contain dozens of golden veins, creating a dazzling golden hue—extremely luxurious and exuding a strong royal aura!
Experts explain that these jades are closely related to the environment in which some dinosaurs lived. Some plant colors gave them a golden hue, and after being buried underground for millions of years, they underwent miraculous changes to form the unique jade we see today.
Therefore, Liu Neng named it "Dinosaur Jade".
With a dinosaur theme, this jade will increase in value many times over!
The middle-aged man brought back good news from his short investigation of the dinosaur jade, which thrilled Liu Neng. With the dinosaur jade, how could he not want to make money!
"Mr. Liu, the jade is indeed rare, but the reserves seem to be very small and located deep within the mine. The area is quite small, and the initial estimate is that the output value will peak at four to five hundred million," the middle-aged man said.
"Only this much?" Liu Neng exclaimed in astonishment.
He had always dreamed of becoming one of the richest men in China, with the jade mines he knew producing billions, tens of billions, or even hundreds of billions in value. But hearing that the estimated value was only four or five hundred million greatly diminished his dream of wealth, and his dream of becoming a tycoon naturally vanished.
"I'm afraid that's why Mr. Liu can hire some more experts to conduct in-depth exploration," the middle-aged man sighed.
"Alright, if I don't believe you, who else can I believe? Ha. Go and rest. Once you're rested, we'll prepare for mining. But for secrecy, you and your assistant go rest with Ah Lang first." Liu Neng feigned...
A burly, bald man was waiting outside the door.
"I understand!" The middle-aged man nodded and left.
This dinosaur jade must be kept a secret!
"Damn, this is all the reserves? Four or five hundred million? If it's buried so deep, the initial investment alone would be forty or fifty million," Liu Neng thought, feeling quite frustrated. Forty or fifty million was a must.
Stealing and mining jade requires speed. Otherwise, it will be easily discovered if too much time passes. Therefore, it's essential to have ample specialized equipment!
But losing forty or fifty million would wipe out his entire fortune; the risk is too high. If the mining is successful, he could earn over four hundred million.
Temptation and risk!
"But no matter what, we need to take over that mountain first. Under what pretext?" Liu Neng thought to himself. They had to get that mountain under government control first; otherwise, the equipment couldn't get in.
Good things are always prone to change if delayed.
Once word gets out, his fortune will vanish!
At that moment, the door opened and a beautiful but alluring woman entered.
"Mr. Liu, your wife and son are here!" the female secretary said, giving him a flirtatious wink.
Liu Neng's eyes lit up when he saw the woman. But upon hearing this, his expression changed immediately: "You get out!"
He was even afraid of his wife, Huang Shuli, and kept a tight rein on him to check if he was having an affair or being seduced by those alluring vixens. Huang Shuli's plump body would drain him dry every night. It wasn't like intimate moments in the bedroom; it was like being played with!
Over time, he developed an instinctive fear. He was completely under Huang Shuli's control.
He desperately wanted to divorce this haggard wife, but he was afraid that many of his account books were in Huang Shuli's hands. If he left her, he would be condemned to a life of eternal damnation and hell!
For a long time, he had channeled his lust into the sturdy desk in his office and the alluring female secretary—that was adultery. He was trembling with fear while committing it, and it left him physically weak!
Now he's hiding and doesn't dare go home, but this haggard woman has come to the company again!
Boom!
The office door was rudely flung open. Then Huang Shuli and her son Liu Jun came in.
Liu Neng instinctively shuddered. He forced a smile.
"Liu Neng, your son was beaten by that bitch; are you going to do anything about it or not? So many people were slapped, look at his swollen face!" Huang Shuli said as soon as she came in.
Upon hearing this, Liu Neng breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't someone looking for trouble! He quickly closed the door before sitting down and asking, "What happened? Which bastard?"
"And then there's that bitch Yang Qin. Huang Yi is getting married, and you're sitting here so calmly while someone tries to steal your daughter-in-law away!" Huang Shuli said discontentedly.
"What? Someone dares to steal my daughter-in-law?" Liu Neng was furious upon hearing this. "Who's got the guts to do that? Does that Huang Laosan dare to talk back to you?"
Huang Anquan has always been completely under his wife's thumb. Everyone knows that. No matter how capable Yang Qin is, she can't fight city hall. He's seen his daughter-in-law; she's very beautiful, and his son is incredibly lucky to have married her.
He knew his son was utterly useless. A coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong, all he did was eat, drink, and squander money. He was, after all, his son!
"That bitch Yang Qin dares! But Huang Laosan's family has some outsiders. Those outsiders are skilled and have kung fu. Look at how they beat my son up like this. Son, you should go to the hospital and get a certificate of serious injury. I'll make sure they're dead!" Huang Shuli said angrily. "Liu Neng, your buddies always eat and drink their fill. Today I'm telling you, if you don't get these outsiders arrested and sent to jail, you've wasted your life!"
Liu Neng became famous after being provoked by his wife, who had a sallow complexion.
Shouldn't a man have some self-respect to avoid being looked down upon by an old woman?
"Take care of these two out-of-towners, it's a piece of cake! I'll call Captain Xue and arrange for someone to get a medical check-up and be hospitalized first to snatch my Liu family's Qin's wife, so they'll know how many eyes the King of Horses has!" Liu Neng said emphatically.
"That's more like a man!" Huang Shuli exclaimed, her eyes welling up with tears. "I'll be waiting for your good news at home!"
The mother and son went out.
Upon hearing the word "at home," Liu Neng's confidence, built up online, instantly crumbled. At home? What are you doing at home?
The inhumane and perverse torture and draining of his life made Liu Neng shudder, and he immediately picked up the phone and called "Captain Xue".
Huang Shuli took her son to the hospital for a "medical examination and hospitalization" while Liu Neng was preparing to take action against the Zhang family.
But at this moment, Zhang Guodong's family and the Huang family were chatting happily. Zhang Guodong had chased away the mother and son and even slapped Liu Jun, much to Yang Qin's delight.
She married Huang Anquan with her child, hoping for financial support. However, the Huang family not only failed to support her but also mistreated her.
Now the Zhang family looks powerful. Their daughter will have someone to rely on.
"But Huang Shuli's man, Liu Neng, is a very wealthy man. I heard he has tens of millions. He has very close connections with his superiors and subordinates. What should we do then?" Yang Qin said with some worry while she was happy.
The Zhang family members were also worried, but Zhang Guodong was all smiles, as if this trouble was not a trouble at all.
"Don't worry, Aunt Yang, Liu Neng is rich. But he can't just rob people, can he? If this gets out of hand, it won't be good for him," Zhang Guodong comforted everyone.
Then, a thought struck him, and he asked, "By the way, what does Liu Neng do?"
"They made so much money selling dinosaur fossils!" the woman exclaimed.
"Dinosaur fossils? Selling them?" Zhang Guodong exclaimed in surprise. He thought to himself, "Damn, this is how this guy started his business? This is blatant crime, and a very serious one at that."
Right here is Asia's largest dinosaur museum. Is nobody doing anything about it?
"Hey, there are quite a few people who make money this way. Many have made money, but Liu Neng has connections. With money, he's managed to get things done and opened a foreign trade company, but in reality, he's just selling fossils overseas!" The sister-in-law blurted out everything she knew without any hesitation.
Yang Qin then sighed and added, "Even though many people in the village used to rely on this..."
A chain of interests!
Zhang Guodong immediately understood!
"I see. But we don't need to be afraid of him. Good will always prevail over evil!" Zhang Guodong said reassuringly.
I thought to myself, "It's fine if you don't come looking for trouble. But if you dare to come looking for trouble, then I have no reason to let you off the hook. Running such a big and serious criminal business, and you still dare to be so arrogant? Heh heh."
Note: The so-called "golden jade" mentioned here refers to a rare and exceptional variety of yellow jade. Don't worry too much about its origin, haha. However, the author of this book believes it's plausible. It's also known as "dinosaur jade," simply because of the dinosaurs in the area; there's no other meaning.
