Su Nuan received a reply from the leader three days later. The country agreed to her proposal, but the specific implementation arrangements would take time. It would take at least a week to prepare the personnel and arrange for all veterans to enter the country in batches.
Su Nuan was very happy to hear the news and said on the phone that she would fully cooperate with the operation.
After hanging up the phone, Su Nuan called Aiden.
Aiden learned that China would accompany a group of veterans to enter Myanmar to form an armed force and to protect the safety of Chinese people doing business in Myanmar.
He was also very happy. The Chinese military strength was ranked among the best in the world. With them there, the safety of Hengrui's mining investment in Myanmar would be greatly improved.
After receiving this news, Aiden immediately accelerated the preparations for the bidding for the Myanmar mining area, and the time for the bidding was approaching.
After Su Nuan finished talking to Aiden, she was thinking about something.
That is, should she go to Myanmar to bid for the mining area this time?
According to her own ideas, she still wanted to go and take a look. There are many mining areas in Myanmar, and a large number of jade mines are controlled by some local warlords.
The company plans to invest at least one billion US dollars in the bidding for the mining area in Myanmar. This amount is indeed not small. If it is lucky and gets a mining area that can mine good quality jadeite, the chance of losing money will be very small.
However, if you are unlucky, you may invest a billion dollars without even hearing a sound.
Although Su Nuan didn't know much about the mining areas in Myanmar, he had heard in later generations that the Houjiang mine often produced old pit ice-type jade.
Aiden’s report mentioned the distribution of mining areas in Myanmar.
Jadeite deposits can be divided into three belts from north to south. The northwesternmost belt is the Houjiang-Leida belt, while the central belt, centered on Hpakant, stretches approximately 35 kilometers from Ganxi in the north to Huika in the south. It extends west to Dumao and east to Longtang, and is approximately 15 kilometers wide from east to west. The belt is dotted with numerous mining sites and contains both secondary placer deposits and primary deposits, making it the most important jadeite producing area. The southernmost mining area, separate from the main area, is called the Nanqi mining area. It lies northwest of the railway line, near Mengyang, and is known as the Mengyang Nanqi mining area.
Jadeite ore is necessarily hidden within a rock formation. However, unlike some metal ores, it does not form regular, patchy deposits. Instead, it is encased within seemingly ordinary rocks. Jadeite deposits are divided into two main types: primary and secondary.
Primary jadeite rock is primarily composed of white jadeite with scattered shades of green, brownish-yellow, and light purple. Besides jadeite, it also contains minerals such as diopside, hornblende, amphibole, and albite. Gem-grade green jadeite is rare. Depending on the source of the jadeite gravel and the appearance of its crust, specific jadeite production areas are referred to in the jade industry as "factory areas" or "factory exits." A "factory exit" refers to the specific location where jade is mined, while a "factory area" is an area formed by several "factory exits" due to the age of mining and similar appearance.
Secondary jade deposits include Quaternary conglomerate jade deposits, modern river alluvial jade deposits and residual slope jade deposits.
Jadeite from the Quaternary conglomerate layer is characterized by huge gravel volume and is the main source of jadeite used in jade carvings. The stratigraphic conglomerate also contains high-quality jadeite pebbles and drift gravel, including emerald-grade and special-grade jadeite.
Modern river alluvial deposits are the most valuable jade deposits. They were transported and sorted by the Wulu River and its tributaries that flow through the Quaternary jade-bearing conglomerate layers. They are characterized by high density, high hardness, uniform texture, tight structure, few cracks, etc. Most of them are high-end jewelry-grade jade.
According to the data from these surveys, the Phakant mining area is the most popular, followed by the Houjiang mining belt, and finally the smallest Mengyang Nanqi mining area.
If possible, Su Nuan would certainly prefer to get the Hpakant mining area, but Hpakant is occupied by local Kachin warlords, and it may be difficult and troublesome for foreigners to intervene in the bidding.
After consideration, Su Nuan and Aiden decided to focus on taking over the Houjiang mining belt, and the next best option was the Mengyangnanqi mining area.
Thinking of this, Su Nuan raised her hand and stroked her bulging belly. In her current situation, even if she wanted to go, everyone would probably try their best to stop her.
The civil unrest in Myanmar is no joke. If something happens, it will be too late to regret. However, she really wants to go and see, and she can't help but feel conflicted.
While Su Nuan was still struggling with this, in China, an official document had been issued to all military regions, and it contained only one order.
Recruit a group of outstanding retired military personnel to carry out a special and important task.
The heads of the various military regions who received the order were very curious about the purpose of calling the veterans back, but they still carried out the task instructions.
In less than three days, a team of nearly 10,000 people was assembled.
In the early stages, not so many people will be allowed to enter Myanmar, and these tens of thousands of people will have to undergo selection before the final list can be determined.
Once the list is released, everyone will need to sign a confidentiality agreement and have a conversation.
There is a high probability of casualties in this mission, and it is an outbound mission. If you have any concerns, you can choose to give up.
After layers of screening, a team of 500 people was finally decided. These were elite soldiers from various major military regions, and each of them had extraordinary skills.
After the team assembled, they began to arrange entry into Myanmar, and Su Nuan's investment funds for purchasing weapons had already been in place.
We will start preparing as soon as their team arrives.
After two days of struggling, Su Nuan called Gu Chengfeng.
On the phone, Su Nuan told her about her dilemma, which was whether or not to go to Myanmar to participate in the bidding for the mining area. After listening to her, Gu Chengfeng was silent for a while and then asked her a few questions.
"Wife, is it necessary for you to go to the bidding to achieve the result?"
Su Nuan thought for a while and said.
"It's not necessary for me to go for things to be done. Aiden is in charge of all the arrangements. Aiden is very capable. Even if I don't go, things can still be done."
"Would it be more advantageous for the company to bid if you went there?"
“There should be”
"Can your physical condition withstand long-term travel and a harsh and turbulent living environment?"
“Probably not.”
Gu Chengfeng's three consecutive questions made Su Nuan feel very depressed. She agreed with them intellectually, but she was still sad emotionally.
Gu Chengfeng heard Su Nuan's depressed mood and spoke in a gentle voice.
"Wife, every time the company faces a major problem, you always take care of it yourself. No matter how distressed and worried I am, I always support you wholeheartedly. This time is no different. However, before you make a decision, you must consider the actual situation and think more about me and the children."
Gu Chengfeng's words left Su Nuan speechless. He was right. She was not alone. She had a husband and children. She didn't have to go into such a risky thing.
Although she is very career-oriented, she also has to consider her children and husband. After thinking about it, Su Nuan gave up the idea of going to Myanmar and decided to stay in the port city and wait for news.
