Beikuang is one of the best mines in Myanmar, so the quality of its jade products is naturally top-notch.
This time, Lu Bao must have leaked the news in advance, so there were a lot of people watching.
When Tian Yuzhu and the others arrived, the venue was already surrounded by three layers of people.
She knew that there were many capable people among the onlookers, so she acted more carefully.
Lubao is on a bamboo platform similar to a stage.
First, with the sound of the gong, a group of men in black came jogging up and surrounded the stage from front to back and left to right. They all had pistols on their waists.
Then a middle-aged man in a white silk suit walked onto the stage. He looked serious yet noble.
The man in white didn't waste any words. He coughed lightly and started speaking in Burmese, and then repeated it in English.
It's probably just an introduction to the treasures that will be revealed today.
One is indeed what Duodan said about the high mountains and long rivers, and the other is the birthday star holding a peach.
Tian Yuzhu thought that this man was definitely not the owner of the North Mine. As the owner of the North Mine, he would not show up just for two pieces of jade.
So I asked the people around me, "Who is the gentleman on the stage?"
The man glanced at her and said, "It's rumored that he's the eldest son of the northern mine owner. I don't know if it's true. After all, not many people in the mine owner's family can actually see him."
In order not to attract other people's attention, Tian Yuzhu stopped asking!
At the same time, bodyguards in black carried two treasures onto the stage.
There were bursts of exclamations from the crowd.
"As expected, the jade from the North Mine is all top quality. Look at the color and the water content."
"Yes, coupled with such flawless carving skills, it is truly remarkable."
It was indeed fine jade, but Duodan was right. With so many people around, they had no way of seeing it up close.
Even if there aren't many people around, the owner probably won't let people get close.
In this way, it is difficult to see the signature of Feiyan mentioned by Duodan.
Sometimes jade carvers carve their own signatures on jade articles. In order not to affect the overall beauty, they will carve them in a relatively hidden place, so that they appear to be integrated with the work and have a sense of meticulousness.
"Brother, which artist created the painting 'High Mountains and Long Rivers'?" Tian Yuzhu pretended to know nothing and asked others.
The other party said: "I heard that he is a descendant of the Dugu Clan of China."
"The Dugu Clan jade carver's signature is Feiyan, right?"
"Oh, sister, you really know a lot."
Tian Yuzhu pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I just heard someone say that, so I wanted to join in the fun and chat with you."
As soon as she finished speaking, someone beside her said, "What nonsense are you bragging about? The Dugu Clan was wiped out as early as the Qing Dynasty. How could there be any descendants?"
"I don't like hearing that. You just say it's destroyed, is there any historical record of that?"
"These kinds of things are all related to the palace. Are you going to smear yourself by reading them down? There's definitely no record of them!"
"Then you are talking nonsense."
The two people who were originally chatting started arguing and insisted that Tian Yuzhu judge who was right.
Tian Yuzhu said with a smile: "Excuse me, my two elder brothers, I really don't understand what you are saying..."
Bang bang bang!
At this moment, gunshots suddenly rang out.
It turned out that someone was determined to make a big splash, so he went on stage and grabbed the peach from the birthday boy.
This object is not big, but it is made of fine jade and has first-class carving skills.
It is only the size of a palm when held in the hand. I guess the desperado came here just for this reason, thinking that it would be easier to steal if he put it in his pocket.
But he was so stupid as to think that the guns carried by those black-clad bodyguards on their waists were just decorations.
He also misjudged the other party's shooting speed, and as a result, he was knocked to the ground by three bullets before his hand even touched the treasure.
Soon, the people watching the excitement in the audience were so scared that they jumped around, pushing and shoving each other, and everyone was like ants in a panic.
Tian Yuzhu had no choice but to walk out quickly, subconsciously raising her hands to protect her stomach.
She hadn't anticipated such chaos.
Just when she was about to be tripped, a strong arm reached out to support her in time and protected her under the arm.
"Zhentang." Tian Yuzhu raised her eyes and saw the man's tense jaw. Why was he here?
Uh, she suddenly remembered that the one-eyed man said he always felt like someone was watching him, and it turned out to be him.
She couldn't help but feel warm in her heart. Although she could handle this little trouble by herself, it felt good to be cared for by someone.
Shi Zhentang's face was tense: "Let's go."
At first he just wanted to protect his wife secretly, but since he knew her true identity, he has been worried about her health and also wanted to give her her own space.
But now that something happened suddenly, he couldn't care less.
The two men finally squeezed into a safe area. Looking back, they saw the Bei family bodyguards dragging the robber who had been beaten to death away like a dead pig.
The long bloodstain on the table was shocking.
It seems that this matter can be resolved by the Bei family themselves. Laws and such don't exist at all.
Shi Zhentang immediately wanted to pull his wife away: "Come on, you have to come back with me now. You can't stay in a place like this for even a minute."
At this time, the one-eyed man who had finally squeezed out of the crowd saw them and ran over hurriedly: "Ouch, you almost squeezed me to death!"
The old man reacted quickly. He realized the people around Tian Yuzhu as soon as he finished speaking. He immediately remembered that he and Tian Yuzhu had agreed that they should pretend not to know each other when they were in the raw stone market.
Even as he was speaking, he had already brushed past the young couple and went straight to grab a small vendor: "You squeezed my shoes off!"
The other party's face was full of confusion: "..."
It seems like he doesn’t know this uncle!
But the one-eyed man started chatting with him: "How's it going? Were you scared just now?"
“…”
While the one-eyed man was chatting with the stranger, Tian Yuzhu turned around and whispered to Shi Zhentang, "Don't worry, I'm really fine, and that little thing just now can't scare me."
Shi Zhentang gritted his teeth and whispered, "You don't know how deep the water is here. We won't do this business."
Tian Yuzhu sighed...
She actually knew more about the depths of Myanmar's waters than he did. Although times had changed, the old saying that having money made you the boss remained unchanged, and there was nothing worth exploring.
Seeing the man so worried, she knew she couldn't persuade him anytime soon, so she just nodded and said, "Okay, let's go back and talk about it later."
According to formal channels, she traveled to Awu Village as the daughter of Yu Duyanlong, and it was reasonable for her to pass through the border.
How did Shi Zhentang survive?
Tian Yuzhu couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
Shi Zhentang told her that he had led a team to Myanmar on a secret mission and had a transit permit.
As soon as the young couple crossed the border, One-Eyed Man hurried back to the coconut noodle shop.
Duodan was still waiting there, a cigarette dangling from his lips. He laughed when he saw him: "Well, did you see my unique skills?"
