Chapter 1043 A legend in the circle



Chapter 1043 A legend in the circle

"Is this the place where Hetian jade is produced?" Ge Ge, who had just stepped off the plane, asked Yang Jing in a daze.It's no wonder she has such an expression, it's because Hotan Airport is actually built on the edge of the desert, to be precise, it's built on the edge of the Gobi Desert between the Hotan Oasis and the Kunlun Mountains.

When the plane landed and circled just now, from the air, we could clearly see the snow-capped Kunlun Mountains to the south, as well as the Hotan Oasis, and of course, the yellow Gobi Desert in between.

Green, yellow and white are particularly distinct in the sky.This feeling was even stronger when I got off the plane.

Hotan at the end of February is not too cold. Compared with northern Xinjiang, it can be called Jiangnan.The Pamir Plateau in the west and the Tianshan Mountains in the north are like two thick arms, firmly guarding the Southern Xinjiang Basin and keeping the cold air from Siberia at bay. Therefore, even if the latitude of Hotan is similar to Tianqu , but the weather in Hetian feels even warmer than that in Tianqu.

The only unpleasant thing is that the wind here is too dry, blowing on the face is no different from scraping with a knife.

Gege tightened his hood, followed Yang Jing and hurried into the car parked outside the airport.Since Yang Jing incarnated as Cole Smith bought a Hetian jade processing factory from Hotan in the late 80s, that factory has been in operation.Thanks to the overseas relationship of the Evil Dragon Fund, this jade carving factory under the Pacific Mining Corporation in name has always had good returns, at least much better than other state-owned jade carving factories in Hotan.

Now, this jade carving factory can be regarded as a well-known local jade carving factory in Hotan.And Yang Jing, the big boss, came over in person, and all the high-level executives of the jade carving factory came to greet him in person.

Sitting on the comfortable Desert Prince off-road vehicle, Ge Ge was amazed at the scenery outside.

Compared with Hotan more than 30 years ago, Hotan is undoubtedly much more beautiful now. There are many more high-rise buildings in the central area of ​​the city, and the roads are much wider, especially the greenery is getting better and better.Although there are still many bungalows in most parts of the city, Hotan at this time is much better than it was more than 30 years ago.

After a group of people had a sumptuous lunch with Hotan special flavor in the cafeteria of the Jade Carving Factory in the evening, they stayed at the Silver Star Hotel in the evening. Under his personal leadership, he took five off-road vehicles and went straight to the Aqike mining area.

When crossing the Yulong KS River, Gege asked curiously: "Is this river the Yulong River that produces Hetian jade?"

"That's right, it's this river. But I'm afraid that the seed jade in this river has almost been dug, and now it is difficult for people to find seed jade in the channel of this river."

"Then how did you get so many seed jades in your hand?"

"Hey, this is a long story. My cheap master told me about his coming here. He told me that when he came to Hotan in the late 80s, the price of Hotan jade was still very low. And at that time, except for the locals, outsiders didn’t even know to look for Ziyu in the Yulong KS River. At that time, my master invested a lot of money in Hotan, and then helped the local government clean up the Yulong KS River for free. The embankment was built, and then" Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders and made a face that you know.There was no one else in this car, except Liu Zhentao and Morris the driver, so Yang Jing didn't shy away from anything.

Liu Zhentao and Ge Ge shook their heads.

At the end of the 80s, people cleaned up the river. If they can't get a lot of Ziyu, it is simply unreasonable.

Liu Zhentao asked, "Xiao Jing, do you know how much your master invested back then?"

"Well, let me think about it. It seems that my master donated 2000 million U.S. dollars to the local government when he arrived in Urumqi, and then donated another 1000 million U.S. dollars to Alar's agricultural reclamation troops on the way. He finally arrived in Hotan At that time, not counting the money for purchasing Hetian jade from the warehouses of some jade carving factories, only 5000 million US dollars was invested in the Hotan government. If you count the funds for purchasing Hetian jade in Hotan, his trip to Xinjiang Province is estimated to be directly Almost $[-] million was thrown in."

This number made Liu Zhentao stick out his tongue.30 million U.S. dollars, even now, is a huge sum of money, not to mention [-] years ago when Huaxia's foreign exchange was extremely tight, [-] million U.S. dollars was a huge investment.

If you think about it this way, it's not surprising that Master Yang Jing can get so many Hetian jade.

We must know that at that time, the price of Hetian jade was still extremely low.Isn't there a legend circulating in the jade circle?It is said that a woman went to Hotan with her family to play, and met a child selling "pebbles" in Hotan.At that time, the child gave the woman a bag of "pebbles", saying that they were stones found in the Yulong KS River, and that 50 yuan would do.

Although 50 yuan was a lot of money at that time, the woman saw that the child was pitiful, and these "pebbles" were really beautiful, so she gritted her teeth and bought the bag with 50 yuan. cobblestone".The bag of "pebbles" weighed about five or six kilograms. After the woman returned home, she felt that there was no place to put these stones, so she threw them into the fish tank.

As a result, more than 20 years have passed unknowingly. When the Hetian jade fire broke out, a friend of the woman's husband went to the woman's house as a guest, and accidentally found those "pebbles" on the bottom of the fish tank from the fish tank. The eyeballs almost popped out.

It turns out that those "little stones" turned out to be real Hetian suetite jade. Even if the collection level does not reach the top 3A collection level, it can definitely reach the 2A collection level. It is a top-level jade that is close to 2 yuan per gram. !

Then the woman cleaned out all the "little stones" that she bought for 20 yuan more than 50 years ago, and asked an expert to look at them. As a result, the expert said that the total value of these suet jade was close to [-] million yuan.
Good intentions are rewarded, as expected.

At that time, the woman spent 50 yuan without knowing it and bought Hetian jade worth 20 million yuan more than [-] years later. If the master of Yang Jing spent [-] million U.S. dollars at that time, he would have to spend the entire Hetian jade. Jade is all sold out.

So, if you look at it from this angle, that master of Yang Jing is not really a mistake.
However, if Yang Jing's master can obtain a 70-year mining right for a jade mine, that would be a big deal.Now that mine still has a mining period of 40 years, how much mountain material can be obtained!
Even if it is a mountain material, it is also a genuine Hetian jade mountain material, and the probability of finding a good jade from it is extremely high!

The car was heading east along National Highway 315. On both sides of the road, there were forests and farmlands that could not be seen at a glance. Of course, the houses where farmers lived were indispensable.The Yulong KS River not only brings the incomparably beautiful Hetian jade to mankind, but also brings oases to the residents along the banks of the river.

Not long after passing LP County, the car entered the Gobi Desert, and after a certain distance, the convoy turned south to a cement road, which was the road leading to the Aqike mining area.

After the highway extended southward for more than ten kilometers, it reached the bank of the Aqike River.Only in this season, the Aqike River is dry.

The road conditions were not very good, and the bumps were a bit severe.There is no way, this road has been repaired for more than 30 years, even if it is often maintained by the local road administration department, but without funds for renovation, the road condition is still getting worse day by day.

"This road should be repaired. If it is not repaired, we will not be able to drive." Grid complained.

"Well, after I come out of the mining area, I will allocate a sum of money to renovate this road. My master probably forgot about this road before, so this road has become like this now. But it doesn't matter, now I am here , this road must be repaired again!"

Because of the bad road conditions, it took nearly an hour to cover the next 40 kilometers.But in the end the convoy arrived at the Aqike mining area safely.

"See, the four hills over there, over there, and over there are connected to form this mining area about three kilometers long and one kilometer wide, which is our Hetian jade mine." Get out of the car , Yang Jing pointed to the area where the valley in front connected to the hillsides on both sides.

At this time, Wang Jian, the director of the jade carving factory, also came up and pointed to this area with a smile and explained: "Mr. Yang, Mrs. Yang, the area of ​​this mining area is 4.1 square kilometers, but most of them are hillsides. , only the 40-meter-wide and 200-meter-long area in the valley is relatively flat, where our factories, office areas, and miners’ dormitories are located.”

Wang Jian is Wu Dawei's nephew.When Yang Jing came to Xinjiang in the form of Cole Smith, Wu Dawei led the way.Wu Dawei was the director of the sales department of a large electrical machinery factory in Yanjing back then. He followed the trend and went to sea for gold in the mid-80s. However, his process of going to sea for gold was not smooth, and he ended up in a bit of disgrace.Fortunately, he met Pete Wu at this time. Pete Wu admired Wu Dawei's communication skills, so he recruited Wu Dawei under his command.

Later, when Yang Jing started such a big business in Hotan, Wu Dawei moved to Hotan with his family. At the same time, he also served as the director of the jade carving factory and the mine manager of the Aqike mining area.

After seeing Cole Smith's wealth and wealth, Wu Dawei knew that he was hugging a super thick thigh. In addition, the environment here in Hotan is actually good, and there are no problems with food and housing, so Wu Dawei simply volunteered here. While presiding over the work, he was appreciated by Pete Wu.

For this reason, after seeking Yang Jing's consent, Pete Wu gave Wu Dawei 10% of the shares in the Jade Carving Factory.

Wang Jian also came to Hotan to join his uncle Wu Dawei after graduating from a technical school in the late 90s. Later, he did well in jade carving factories and mines, and was gradually picked up by Wu Dawei.Six years ago, 69-year-old Wu Dawei died of lung cancer. Before his death, when Pete Wu came to visit him, he pleaded with Pete Wu to let his nephew Wang Jian take over from him.

After Pete Wu inspected Wang Jian, he agreed to Wu Dawei's request. Wang Jian took charge of the work here, and Pete Wu gave Wang Jian 10% of the shares.Of course, the 10% of the shares belonged only to the Jade Carving Factory, and Pete Wu did not have that right to distribute the shares of the Aqike Jade Mine.
