Arhan is a local man in his forties with a medium build.
He wears a worn-out black leather jacket.
His tanned face has been imprinted with traces of vicissitudes of hardship from hard work in the mountains.
He has a beard and wears a local cap.
He is a typical image of local people.
He has thick eyebrows and big eyes, and looks very honest and reliable.
He also has his own team that goes into the mountains to pick jade.
This team is even quite famous among the jade pickers.
Their jade-picking team doesn't say that they get rich every time they go into the mountains, but it is true that basically they never come back empty-handed as long as they go into the mountains.
When he saw Su Li and his party gathered together, Arhan frowned slightly, but didn't say much.
In Arhan's eyes, Su Li and his group were not fun at all.
They just went to the mountains and forests to find trouble for themselves.
They didn't know the sufferings of the world and were looking for something to do.
The difficulty of going into the mountains is not as simple as traveling by car.
It requires jade collectors to climb mountains and wading through rivers step by step and measure the hardship with their feet.
If it were so easy to pick jade, with beautiful jade all over the mountains and plains, jade would not be so cherished, and jade pickers like them would have become rich long ago.
Originally, it was not his fault what they wanted to do, but the person in charge who often cooperated with them to purchase their jade found him and entrusted him with the care of these children.
For the sake of the previous friendship and the continued cooperation in the future, and because they were willing to pay him the equivalent of a moderate income for a trip to the mountains, he agreed.
Now that he has agreed, he is very determined to do his best.
People cannot do bad things, otherwise Allah will punish them.
However, looking at the appearance of this group of children, they might be making a fuss back after walking two steps into the mountain, so he didn't say anything.
Everyone who goes into the mountain carries their own luggage, and Su Li and his group are no exception.
However, compared to the Noda backpacks of those jade pickers who often weigh one meter in height and weigh fifty or sixty kilograms, theirs are spread out.
Then make three or four packages, and then each person will be given a backpack to hold their own personal belongings.
Each person is responsible for a little bit.
In addition, except for some necessary supplies, they will not carry any extra things, which will reduce the burden. burdened.
After all, there are only two men in their group, and the rest are girls.
It is unrealistic for these little girls to carry fifty or sixty kilograms of belongings to travel across mountains and rivers.
"Before going into the mountains, there are some things I would like to emphasize again.
Going into the mountains is not for fun, it is very hard.
In the past, jade pickers stayed in the mountains forever every year to accompany the mountain gods and never come back.
In the past two years, technology has progressed, and equipment has improved.
You can follow me, but it is not without danger.
Therefore, after entering the mountain, you must obey my arrangements and cannot leave my side casually."
This is also the reason why Arhan frowned.
Compared with ordinary jade pickers, They don't look like jade collectors.
This group of children from big cities definitely have little experience in going into the mountains.
Moreover, looking at the attitude of the person in charge, the identity of this group of children may not be simple.
If something happens to them in the mountains, the consequences will definitely be unbearable for him. .
Therefore, Arhan couldn't help but reiterate the key points he emphasized when taking over this group of tasks.
The person in charge should have made everything else clear, so there is no need for him to waste too much saliva.
"Okay, Uncle Arhan, don't worry, we will definitely obey orders and follow your actions without hesitation."
Yan Nuo also knew that Arhan was doing it for their own good, and the image of their group was indeed impressive.
I was worried, so Yan Nuo, on behalf of everyone, didn't say any more nonsense and just patted his chest and gave his assurance.
After receiving the exact guarantee, Arhan led the group of children to have a simple group breakfast.

Another person received a military green single-room messenger bag, which contained Xinjiang naan bread and air-dried meat strips that could be stored for a long time, as well as a An old-fashioned military kettle filled with water, this is the ration for going into the mountains.
For Su Li and his party, apart from kettles and water, they had no interest in the naan biscuits and jerky that were so hard that they could hurt people and be used as weapons.
Comparatively speaking, they prefer to eat the Bigu Dan prepared by Ah Li.
It is nutritious, convenient and tastes good.
However, everyone queues up to receive it in an orderly manner.
They also need the water in it, so there is nothing special about it.
After receiving the last distributed supplies, everyone followed Arhan to the boarding area in an orderly manner and boarded the waiting bus.
Sitting on the bus, Arhan warned again: "The bus will start soon. , after starting up, you must remember that no matter what people outside shout, you can't look back.
This is the rule of jade pickers."
Touching the bamboo mats in series on the seats of the minibus under his command, Arhan thought silently in his heart.
It turns out that they, the jade collectors, were all sitting in large trucks covered with military tents like the ones behind them.
It was thanks to these children that I was lucky enough to ride in this comfortable minibus this time.
This also shows that these children really cannot tolerate any accidents, otherwise, they really cannot afford the consequences.
The car started slowly and went straight up along the mountain ring road.
Along the road, you can see the snow-capped peaks towering into the clouds.
Sure enough, no matter what the farewell people outside said to the jade pickers in the car, no one looked back, and they all restrained themselves and only looked forward.
Where water and soil support one person, where there is water and soil, there are also rules.
After the car drove upward for more than three or four hours, we arrived at the transfer station for jade collectors entering the mountains.
This is a large playground with a simple two-story cement building at one end.
"The car can only take us here.
Further forward, people can only walk up by themselves.
The car can't get up and pass.
Do you want to eat something?
This place provides the last meal for people entering the mountain."
Al Han pointed at the simple cement building where the jade pickers who got off the bus crowded forward.
This is a place that experts say is three to four thousand meters above sea level.
You have to wear thick clothes here.
Naturally, the car will not be able to go up.
Not to mention, the road up the mountain ahead may only be able to accommodate the narrowest point.
One person must pass "Uncle Arhan, you go and have a meal.
We have brought something, and we will wait here for you to finish the meal before we set off together."
Everyone had good eyesight, and their eyes were very sharp when they saw the vat of soup and the food that those people had snatched out.
People who are not very hungry or have little appetite for steamed buns or cakes do not intend to compete with them for food.
Originally, they were added in so as not to cause any more trouble to others.
These city kids looked down on the soup and rice, but they didn't know that this was the last hot meal after entering the mountains.
Maybe Arhan didn't persuade them to stop wandering around, so he went to eat first. sjgsf0916:
