Strange Stone
One morning, Bi Min and Chen Hui left in Zhou Xingzong's 1041. I was just about to go to the tunnel when I saw them putting things into the carriage. When they saw me, the two of them panicked and quickly got into the driver's seat.
Watching the car drive away and disappear after turning the mountain mouth, I felt sad. She was gone, but I still wanted to live on in this world. I turned around and went to the Kuangqu.
I'm going to do something very special today. Guan Yunwu and Shen Qiyou discussed this.
My target is Boss Zhao's mine. It had been more than a month since Boss Zhao's mine had been mined. The lead and silver mines at the entrance of the tunnel were piled up into two small hills, shining brightly under the sun, making people jealous. His cave entrance is more than twenty meters below the entrance of Pit No. 2. Why is it that his ores are piled up into a mountain while we are only producing grayish-black stones? Guan Yunwu and Shen Qiyou wanted to know the direction of his mining cave. And this had to be done in the cave. This was a shady business, no different from being a thief. They didn't dare to go themselves, so they wanted me to go. They said that they were too big of a target. Everyone knew that they were engineers from the Five Bulao Company. If they entered someone else's mine, they would definitely be suspected of having ulterior motives. But I am different. No one will suspect me. Besides the two of them, I'm the only one in the company who knows how to use a compass and draw.
Of course, I didn't believe their nonsense, but what they said wasn't completely unreasonable. What they don't know is that I'll go even if it doesn't make sense; For my 80,000 yuan!
I've reached tunnel number two. Our men are still drilling holes and preparing to fire. I pretended to look at the rocks at the mouth of the pit and quietly observed Boss Zhao's movements in the tunnel below. After looking for a long time, I was overjoyed. They did not go to work today.
I quietly went down to their cave entrance, looked around, and bent down to enter the mine.
The mine was very small, only half as tall as us, so we could only bend over to walk. I held a compass compass with a diameter of six to seven centimeters and washi. After walking for a while, he put down the compass to determine the direction. He drew the direction of the tunnel on paper and marked the angle and direction.
It was pitch-black in the mine, so I used the flashlight to illuminate my way forward. The mine was very damp. Water dripped from the top of the cave and wet my back. The mine was narrow and short, without any support. The jagged rocks looked as if they would collapse at any moment and bury me in the hole. However, I couldn't care less about this. I focused on surveying and drawing, and I was careful not to let the water droplets wet the surface of the map.
I was on tenterhooks. People could come into the mine at any time. No one knew when they would come to work. If that happened, it would be bad! I could only tear up the blueprint and deny it. I said that I was just curious and casually entered the cave to take a look. Of course, no one would believe this nonsense. But what other good ideas could he have? Only when you have enough food and clothing can you know honor and disgrace? I had to play for survival; I was ready to be crippled. In the face of the cruel rules of survival, people were helpless!
Fortunately, no one entered the cave. I drilled all the way to the surface of the support and completed the surveying work.
Guan Yunwu and Shen Qiyou received my blueprints as if they were treasures. A few days later, the company held a shareholders 'meeting and decided to stop digging the first and fourth pits and only dig the second and third pits. Guan Yunwu didn't mention anything about my surveying and drawing. He only vaguely said that according to the surveying and drawing results, there might be ore in the second pit after digging another 50 meters.
The shareholders were skeptical.
After the shareholders 'meeting, tunnels No. 1 and No. 4 were closed, and only tunnels No. 2 and No. 3 were opened. Even so, the daily cost was still 5,000 to 6,000 yuan. After another 20 days, we only have 100,000 yuan left, but we still haven't seen any mines.
Another shareholders 'meeting was held. At the meeting, Chen Peng and Guan Yunwu suggested that each shareholder add another 50,000 yuan. Zhu 'er agreed and said that if he didn't join, the previous shares would be over. My head exploded when I heard that. Where am I going to get another fifty thousand yuan? Not to mention 50,000 yuan, he couldn't even take out 5,000 yuan! I've invested all my savings into the company, and now I'm living on 600 yuan a month. I immediately objected loudly. When the crowd heard this, some objected and some agreed. It was as if a hornet's nest had been poked, and the venue was in a mess. People with different opinions could not convince each other. As they spoke, they became angry and scolded each other. They spat saliva on each other's faces and poked each other's heads with their fingers. As he cursed, he rolled up his sleeves and arms, wanting to fight. He wanted to settle it with force.
I deeply regretted it and suddenly realized that this was a group of rabble who had slept in the same bed but had different dreams. How did I get involved with them and come here? Moreover, I found that people in misfortune and adversity would not sympathize with each other and help each other through difficulties. Instead, they attacked and slandered each other even more, just like a group of pigs that were trapped in the mud. They were happy to see other pigs fall deeper than them, and they wanted to step on other pigs to climb up.
But there was no medicine for regret. Fortunately, Duan Ming stopped the shareholders who were about to fight in the end and voted. The result was that three of the nine shareholders, Zhou Xing, agreed to increase the share price, and five opposed it. The proposal to increase the share price fell through. The resolution was to use up the remaining shares before returning the mine. They would withdraw their troops and return home, announcing that the mining had failed and the company was disbanded.
The 100,000 yuan could only be used for 20 days at most. Most of the shareholders had given up hope. Some of them began to prepare to go home.
Today, Shen Qi and I returned from Pit No. 3. After going down the mountain, we had to cross a stream that flowed out of the valley. I followed them over the big rocks on the stream. It was already dusk, and the light reflected on the surface of the stream flickered. I looked around and went behind a bush by the stream to pee.
The urine rushed into the stream and made a gurgling sound. He accidentally saw a crystal-like object in the pile of rocks that had been poured down from the mountain and soaked in water. The pillar was much larger than a common crystal. He went down to the bottom of the stream and dug it out.
It was an uneven rock the size of half a watermelon. It had obviously been blown up by explosives. There were four or five crystalline hexagonal pillars protruding from it, the largest of which was as thick as a beer bottle. The others were smaller, but they were as thick as wine glasses. However, they were all covered in a layer of moss and soil. I used the stream water to wash off the moss and soil on the pillar, and I couldn't help but be very surprised.
This is a type of crystal that I have never seen before. It was light brown in color but transparent. It shone brightly under the sun. What was even more amazing was that inside the large crystal, one could clearly see some things that looked like mountains, rivers, pavilions, birds, and animals. They were of different colors and shapes.
My heart jumped. I suddenly realized that I was holding an unusual stone in my hand. Its value might not be cheap. It might even be a priceless treasure. In the past few months, he had seen many abandoned crystals all over the mountains, but he had never seen such a crystal.
I'll go to Shen Qiyou in front. He was a geological engineer. He definitely knew what it was.
Shen Qiyou looked at it carefully and said,"This is nothing, and it's not a treasure." It was just a stone. This was not a jade Kuangqu. What kind of gemstones will there be?"
I was greatly disappointed. But I still hid it in the wooden box under my bed. I plan to bring it back to the country. Even if it was just a decoration.
A few days later. One day at dinner, Xiao You asked me if I had picked up a stone.
"How did you know?"
"Xu Gang said so. He said that you were so poor that you treated a stone as a treasure. Everyone is laughing at you behind your back." Little You smiled.
"Whoever wants to laugh, go ahead. Humph!" I'm very angry! Shen Qiyou must have said this. She couldn't tell that he was also a villain.
"Can I take a look at that stone?" Little You smiled.
"Why not? Come and take a look."
Xiao You came to my bamboo shed at night. As soon as she saw the stone, her eyes revealed a surprised gaze. She turned it over and over in the candlelight and looked at it carefully for a while."Big Brother Da Bao, I'm telling you, don't treat me as a joke. Listen carefully. Although I don't know what this gem is called, it's definitely not an ordinary stone. You probably don't know this, but I used to work as a helper in a jade shop in Sabah before I came here. But I've never seen a crystal like this. What I find strange is, why is this rock lying at the bottom of the river? I heard that you picked it up from the river. Is that true?”
I got excited. Could this really be a treasure? " I picked it up from the river..." I told him what had happened.
"In that case, there's only one possibility. The worker who dug out the jade didn't notice it because the light was dim, so he carried it out with the stone and poured it into the pile of stones. Coincidentally, there was a river below, so it was buried at the bottom of the river. I don't know how many years have passed before you discovered it. Perhaps the flash flood a few days ago had washed it out. Big Brother Dabao, let me give you a suggestion. I don't know if you'll listen to me.”Little You smiled.
"You talk, I'll listen." I laughed.
"You can't just leave this jade stone in this wooden box like this. You have to hide it well. The people here were all suspicious. They might laugh at you because you don't know what's good for you. However, he couldn't rule out the possibility that someone who knew the goods was deliberately pretending to be stupid. You can't have the heart to harm others, but you can't be without the heart to guard against others. Don't you agree?"
Seeing how serious she was, I was a little surprised."Then where should I hide it?" I scratched my head.
"If you trust me." Xiao You smiled. Leave it to me. I'll take care of it for you, okay?”
I was shocked! She would keep it?
She probably saw my hesitation, so she stopped smiling and said,"Aiyo, I was wrong. Yes, yes, how could such a precious thing be handed over to an outsider? Take good care of it yourself. I've said too much!”
I smiled. I really didn't want to let her keep it. I don't have a deep relationship with her, and she's a girl.
She stood up and was about to leave, but when she reached the bamboo door, she turned back and said,"Sigh. Let me tell you, who asked me to be so…If you're interested, let's go to Sabah. I'll get someone to take a look at it. If you're not interested, forget it.”
"Really? If you want it, if you want it, let's go for a walk. Thank you, Little You!" My eyes lit up and I said immediately.
"Humph! I don't need your thanks! I'm meddling!" She rolled her eyes at me and turned to leave.
