"These are our warehouses?"
Yang Jing pointed to the seven or eight ten-meter-square sturdy warehouses located in the corner of the warehouse area, and asked with a frown.
"Yes boss, since we opened this field in July last year, all the jade rough stones dug up have been piled up here after selection.
We don't have a place to ship it now!
Mr.
Ale originally came to visit last year, but he didn't know what stumbled him, he never came, and the transportation route originally said to be opened by Mr.
Ale to China was naturally lost. ” Yang Jing nodded helplessly and said, "Okay, I know about this matter."
I have come this time to open up transport routes for Mr.
Aare. ” When Wu Qinmaung heard this, he was happy.
"Boss, if you don't come again, we don't know where to put the rough stone we dug up.
In this area, there are usually two or three warehouses in each field as temporary storage points, and the rest of the rough stones will be transported away in a short time.
Our jadeite rough can't be shipped out, so we have to pile up here.
There is not much vacant land in the Damukan mining area itself, and we have to build four or five more warehouses, which not only does not cost less, but also causes some dissatisfaction among the mine owners at other sites."
While the two were talking, a Burmese local with a gun trotted over, saluted Wu Qinmaung, and then said something in a whisper, and Wu Qinmaung replied in a chatter.
They communicated with each other in the local language, and Yang Jing naturally didn't understand, but it was obvious that Wu Qinxiang introduced Yang Jing's identity to this person, so this guy bowed to Yang Jing very neatly.
Wu Qin-maung explained: "Boss, this is the security captain of our warehouse, Tun Qin, a cousin of my aunt's family, who is absolutely reliable.
Now he leads 120 armed men, divided into four shifts and 24 hours a day, guarding our warehouse. ” Yang Jing nodded at the security captain with great satisfaction, which made him a little flattered.
The warehouse area can be said to be the most important area of a field, in the Damukan mining area, several adjacent fields usually arrange warehouses together, and then several fields jointly send security personnel to guard the warehouse area.
It is as if this warehouse area was built at the expense of the mine owners at the entrance of the five nearby fields, and the warehouse area is surrounded by stone walls more than one meter thick and more than four meters high, and there are high corner towers at the four corners, on which are installed searchlights and shift machine guns using 762 mm machine gun rounds, and at least five security personnel from different fields are on duty at the same time on each corner tower.
Inside and outside the walls of the warehouse area, there are also a large number of security guards with guns patrolling non-stop, these large number of security guards, almost so that the entire warehouse area will not produce any dead ends, even if 007 comes, I am afraid that I will not be able to enter the warehouse area unnoticed.
The gate of the warehouse area can only be entered by fixed security personnel and the owner or steward at the entrance of the warehouse, and no one else can enter at all.
It is no exaggeration to say that even if Peng Jiasheng, the king of Kokang, came here, he would not be able to enter the door of the warehouse.
Although these jade fields are now under the management of Peng Jiasheng, the bosses of these fields are not afraid of Peng Jiasheng.
Everyone who dares to open a mine here has an extremely deep background behind them, and there are hundreds of security guards at these gates, and the equipment is even better than Peng Jiasheng's army equipment.
Therefore, even Peng Jiasheng would not be taboo to take the initiative to go to these warehouse areas.
Under the leadership of Tun Qin, Yang Jing and Wu Qinxiang walked into the warehouse area and walked along a fixed route to the area where their warehouse belonged.
The four walls of these warehouses are made of stones, and the roofs are ridged with thick logs, covered with thatch and yellow mud.
In this era, cement in northern Myanmar is rarer than munitions, and there are no reinforced concrete prefabricated slabs.
These warehouses are built entirely from local materials.
The door of the warehouse is also nailed with logs, and the iron door?
In this day and age, you don't even think about it.
In the 80s, all the warehouse doors were nailed with thick logs, regardless of the mining area.
Swallowing the farts opened the lock, untied the arm-thick iron chain, and beckoned three more guards, and the four of them worked together, and only then did they push the gate open a gap that people could walk into.
This kind of gate also has its own anti-theft function.
There is no door shaft, so a gate with eight or nine hundred pounds needs at least three or four people to push it open.
One person may be able to blend into the mine, but the probability of two or three people blending in together is almost non-existent.
This is just like the "ghost sorrow" used by those big families to prevent theft in ancient China, those big families melted hundreds of catties of silver and cast them into "ghost sorrows", a big silver ingot is enough to have hundreds of catties, even if those thieves touch in, there is no way to move away.
The ghost was worried when he saw these big silver ingots, let alone those thieves The doors of these warehouses are the same as those "ghosts".
A warehouse is about 100 square meters, and there is a wooden shelf made of logs every other meter, and there are five shelves in a warehouse, and each shelf is placed with jadeite rough stones that are not very large.
Yang Jing looked at these jade rough stones, and his brows couldn't help frowning.
The number of these jadeite rough stones was much smaller than he had imagined.
"Old Wu, how many rough stones can be placed in this warehouse?"
Wu Qinxiang immediately took out a black notebook from his pocket, opened it and looked at it and said, "Boss, this warehouse is full of the best rough stones we have carefully selected, and there are a total of 4,156 rough stones with a total weight of 798 tons. ” The jadeite rough shell in the Damukan mining area is mostly brownish-gray, yellow-red, and the water and bottom are generally good, but there are many white fog and yellow fog, and the size is usually relatively small, generally about one or two kilograms.
These more than 4,000 rough stones weigh less than eight tons, but they are in line with the characteristics of the jadeite rough produced in the Damukan mining area.
However, it took nearly 4,000 people a year to dig up such a little rough stone, which is really a bit unreasonable.

"After digging for more than a year, you dug up such a little rough stone?"
Yang Jing's tone was a little bad.
Wu Qinxiang shuddered, and quickly explained: "Boss, this warehouse is only one of our eight warehouses, and the rough stones in the best condition are held here, so the number of rough stones in this warehouse is so small."
Each of the other seven warehouses holds about 20 tons of rough stones.
In a year, we dug up about 150 tons of rough stones, which is quite a lot.
The area of the Hangba field next to us is a little larger than ours, and they have more than 5,000 miners, and they only dig out 150 tons of rough stone in a year.
Those smaller fields can dig up 100 tons of rough stones a year, even if they burn high incense!
Among the more than 20 sites in the Damukan mining area, there are only four or five sites that can dig out 100 tons of rough rock a year, and the others are dozens of tons a year. ” When Wu Qinmaung said this, Yang Jing remembered that it was only the 80s, and in the jade mining areas of Myanmar, pure manual excavation methods were still used.
It is not like 30 years later, when "strange hands" excavation equipment replaced a large amount of manual labor, and with the large-scale use of modern equipment, the output of Myanmar's jadeite mining areas has also increased dramatically.
But even if a large area is excavated with "strange hands", in 2014 and 2015, when the output was at its highest, the Myanmar jadeite mine only dug up 7,000 tons of jadeite rough in the last year.
At present, the jadeite mining area in Myanmar is not one of the eight major mining areas in later generations, and the only mining areas that have taken shape now are Lao Hpakant, Xiangdong, Lunken, Damkan, Houjiang and the Huika mining area located in a ravine about 20 kilometers south of Xiangdong Village.
As for Thunder and Nanqi, it's just a prototype now.
Among the six major mining areas at present, the Damukan mining area is the largest mining area, which can produce less than 1,000 tons of jadeite rough in a year, and the remaining five mining areas together produce about 2,000 tons of jadeite rough in a year.
Of course, this is not to say that miners here only dig up about 2,000 tons of rough jadeite in a year.
In fact, these miners dig stones day and night, and the stones dug up in a year are 100,000 tons, but most of these stones are not jadeite rough.
There are a lot of stone separators who specialize in selecting jadeite rough stones at each site, and these excavated stones have been passed by these masters several times, and only a very small number of jadeite rough stones will be picked out by these stone separators and stored in the warehouse, and most of the remaining stones will be piled up in the ore garbage dump.
It's like the stone mountain that Yang Jing and Wu Qinmaung saw on the way to the warehouse just now, which is actually an ore garbage dump, and all the garbage ore picked up by those stone selectors is piled up.
Of course, there may be some missing jadeite ore in these ore dumps, so there are always a lot of women and children digging through the rocks in the ore dumps, hoping for an unexpected discovery.
However, these dumps are also owner-owned, and everyone who enters the dump must pay a fee.
Although the stones you pick up belong to you, you have to pay taxes if you take any stone from the garbage dump.
After thinking of these data, Yang Jing was relieved.
This field is the youngest one in the entire Damukan mining area, and one-seventh of the jadeite rough in the entire Damukan mining area has been excavated in one year, which is definitely commendable.
Yang Jing said to Wu Qinxiang: "It's me who blames you."
Last year was good, and this year I'll give you a 20 raise.
Well, and the security guards are not easy, and after the New Year, each of them will also receive a salary increase of 20. ” As soon as Wu Qinxiang heard this, his face suddenly blossomed, and he bowed to Yang Jing with his hands folded.
Yang Jing waved his hand and said, "That's it, you two go outside and wait for me first, don't come in without my greeting." ” The big boss's orders, neither Wu Qinxiang nor Tun Qin dared to disobey them, and the two of them walked out immediately, and after going out, they kindly closed the heavy door again, leaving Yang Jing alone in the warehouse ps: Bow and thank "Ziyan Tianjiao" for the 100 tip.
