Mardan had been running all year round, and although she was old, she did not seem to be out of sorts. Seeing that the old man and Zheng Qianqiu had followed along with their pale faces, he laughed complacently.

It's not over yet. Mardan walked to the front of the group, and pointed at the donkeys tied to the side of the mud hut: "There's still some distance. If a car cannot be driven in, we can only rely on these beasts."

I heard that they aren't even there yet. Lao Tang and Zheng Qianqiu were about to cry.

Receiving Wei Fan's instructions, Mei Er and the Xiaolan also channeled their spirit energy to Zheng Xiaoxiao and the others, so their situation was still the same. At least not as miserable as Zheng Qianqiu himself.

Zheng Qianqiu and Lao Tang rode on the donkey last, and slowly advanced with the team. The two's strange shapes were naturally very funny. Tang Clan Little Lori took out his digital camera and began to film it. Seeing the flashing lights, Lao Tang did not have the ability to stop it.

Taking advantage that no one was looking, Wei Fan walked over to the two and secretly transferred some Spirit Qi to them, causing their situation to improve a little.

Once the situation became better, Zheng Qianqiu jumped down from the donkey, walked to Mardan's side and asked: "We don't even have a way out, how did you get those machines in?"

Looking at the rugged mountain road beneath her feet, that was not a beautiful memory. Mardan said with a grave expression on her face, "As long as a person wants to do something, they can do it. At that time, we were disassembling those machines into small parts, and we relied on donkey camels and people to carry them inside before assembling them again. "

Wei Fan and the others couldn't help but think of the difficult situation they would have to face in the future. Mardan guessed their thoughts, and said with relief: "That might not be the case, it depends on where you choose to mine. It was an expert who instructed me to mine the jade here. That's why I brought the machine here. "Although it was a bit difficult when we first entered that year, we did reap quite a lot in the years."

Mardan herself was considered an expert in the Hetian s' jade business, but she didn't know what realm the expert he spoke of was. Lao Tang wanted to ask, but Mardan smiled and shook her head, unwilling to say.

Don't be afraid, we have experts too, Great God Wei.

After about half an hour or so, Wei Fan and the rest finally saw Mardan's jade mine.

In the past, the method of mining mountain jade was very rough. It was like opening a mountain, using explosives. If the control was not good, the entire piece of jade material would be shattered. Now, Mardan and the others were mining using machinery according to the distribution of the rock stratum, using as little explosives as possible.

The scale of the Hetian Jade Mine was definitely not too big. Mardan's mine also only had fifty to sixty people, it could be considered to be quite a decent scale. Every year, when the Hetian Jade Mountain Stones were sent to the market with a few tons of them, although these ingredients were not as good as the seeds that Wei Fan had picked up from the river, the better quality ones were still worth a lot of money.

Mardan's eldest son stayed here and managed it all year round, not saying much. Seeing Wei Fan, they just smiled. Then, he used Uighur to tell Mardan about the recent situation in the mine. It could be seen that Mardan was more satisfied.

In the past few days, he had managed to harvest another batch of jade, and these jade were also to be transported out by donkey. Looking at the various sized Hetian s and jade pieces placed on the low mountain, it was a shock that he had never experienced before, one that could only be seen in mining areas.

Mardan picked out a few of the good materials, but he was unwilling to sell them, so she brought them home.

Afterwards, Mardan led Wei Fan and the others deeper into the mine. Because it was more dangerous, the women stayed outside the mine. Only Zheng Qianqiu and the others entered with their safety hats on.

The tunnel wasn't too deep, and there were still some workers working on the tools inside. The sound of a machine could be heard, and everyone had to shout to communicate.

Mardan was also encountering a problem with her mine, so sshe did not hide it from Wei Fan and the others. Pointing to a faintly discernable rock belt on the wall, he asked Wei Fan if they had discovered anything.

If one looked carefully, they would realize that this was not an ordinary rock, but a Hetian Jade. The cave entrance was a flawless white, and at the current mining site, it had already turned green.

Hetian Jade only cared about white, if it became green, it would not have any market value. After dozens of years of mining, Mardan was more unwilling to give up on them.

He simply told Wei Fan and the rest some methods of observing the stone veins. Unable to endure the rumbling sounds of the machines, the group of people walked out of the cave.

Turning her head to look inside the cave, Mardan said with melancholy: "This cave is getting old, the good jade is becoming fewer and fewer, maybe one day it will close."

"I'm not sure if there are any treasures in there! It would be better to persevere. " Wei Fan suddenly said at this moment.

had never paid much attention to this young man before. Even if they knew that he had gotten lucky and obtained a piece of goose-fat jade, they wouldn't take it to heart. Hearing him say this with such certainty, he asked curiously, "How do you know?"

There was no need to explain to God Wei's conclusion. He smiled: "It's just a feeling."

Hearing this unreasonable explanation, Mardan stroked her goatee and laughed. Then, he looked at Wei Fan and said, "You still have the same words as that expert who helped me find the mines back then," Fine! Just as you said, I won't stop at this mine. I will try my best to drill into it to see if there are any treasures. "

Lao Tang was very confident, and only waited for Mardan to deliver the good news.

The food in the mines could not be bad, and Mardan was even more generous. Every day, there would be fresh fish and vegetables, and the chef had quite the standard.

After the miners finished eating, they went back to the mines. Wei Fan and the rest continued to drink.

After three rounds of drinking, Zheng Qianqiu finally asked: "Grandfather Mardan, where is the place that you're talking about?"

Mardan, who was chewing on the goat's leg, put down the food, telling Zheng Qianqiu not to worry.

After the meal, the donkey team returned with the jade stone road. Returning to the car, Mardan said: "I'll bring you guys to that place right now, the conditions there are better than ours. It'll be easier to mine them."

who was sore all over found trouble with Xuancao, and it was all over the place.

Not too long after, they arrived at an ancient river. The place was bustling with noise and excitement. Surrounding the riverbank, the figures of busy machinery could be seen everywhere, and the riverbank had been excavated to the point of being destroyed.

Mardan smiled as she explained, "This is the place. Even though it looks ordinary, there are already quite a few good stuff going on this year!"

continued: "Moreover, handling the procedures here is very simple. The price per mu of land is 50 thousand, and there are also other environmental governance fees. As long as we pay money, we can have the mining rights in this area. Of course, there is a limit to the mining time. "

What Zheng Qianqiu wanted was to own a mine like Mardan, not have the ownership of the Ancient Creek. He looked at Wei Fan, and saw that Wei Fan was smiling and nodding, he had a plan, and asked: "Grandpa Mardan, then please help me introduce the local officials! "Also, if we take a fancy to any mines in the future, will we be able to get the mining rights?"

"Of course, but to be honest, this investment is much smaller than the mine." Mardan was telling the truth.
