After wandering around the warehouse for more than half a day, Yang Jing finally walked out of the warehouse with more than 200 pieces of glass jadeite rough stones.
Yang Jing didn't want to stay here, but was going to take them back directly.
These jadeite rough stones had to be carried out by elephants - if it weren't for the number of jadeite rough stones in the warehouse, Yang Jing would have thrown these jadeite rough stones into the storage space and took them away.
More than 200 pieces of jadeite rough stone weigh about half a ton, and one elephant can't pull it away, at least four elephants are needed.
In fact, elephants are not as powerful as people think, at least elephants are not able to carry heavy loads.
Don't look at the adult elephant can easily roll up something weighing half a ton with its trunk, and can easily pull something weighing two or three tons leisurely, but if you let the elephant carry something, then the elephant is not one.
In fact, except for horses and donkeys, which have been domesticated for thousands of years and are specially used to carry heavy animals, most of the animals that land on all fours are "copper-headed and iron-tailed tofu waists", whether they are tigers or wolves, or dogs and cats, most of them have very poor carrying ability.
Elephants are the largest land animals in the world, but the weight of an adult elephant should not exceed 150 kilograms, and the elephant's waist strength is not strong.
This is also why Wu Qinmaung organizes more than 50 elephants to pull grain for the workers at the entrance of the farm every day.
An elephant weighs more than 100 kilograms, and more than 50 elephants have more than 5,000 kilograms of grain a day.
If these more than 500 kilograms of jadeite rough are to be carried out by elephants, at least four elephants will be needed.
In the evening, Wu Qinxiang made a table of very rich dishes, most of which were made from local materials.
Wild boar, pangolins, hares, pheasants, these wild animals are abundant in the primeval mountain forests near the Damukan mining area, and there are many hunters who are proficient in hunting in the mining area.
These hunters can take their dogs and guns out for a long time, and they can bring back a lot of game.
There is no shortage of fish and shrimp here, and after walking a few kilometers downstream along the Wulu River, you will enter the canyon area.
Don't look at the fact that there are no fish and shrimp in the mining area, but in the canyon area where there is no damage, there are still quite a lot of fish and shrimp here.
There was a large table of dishes for dinner, and there were a lot of accompanying dishes, in addition to Wu Qinmao and the security captain Tunqin, there were also four heads of stone selection masters and two other deputy security captains.
In the mining area, the least valuable people are the miners.
Although it is very helpless and cruel to say this, the reality is like this.
In the entire jade mining area of northern Myanmar, there are hundreds of thousands of miners mining, and nearly 4,000 miners are working in Yang Jing's Wumachang alone.
In the Damukan mining area alone, there are more than 20 fields of similar size to Yang Jing's Wumachangkou, and there are even more small farms.
Therefore, in the jadeite mining area, the status of miners is the lowest.
Above the miners, there are security guards and stone selectors.
The importance of security is self-evident, these guys don't look at the usual idleness, but once they really encounter something, these guys are more fierce than the vast majority of the Burmese army.
These security guards do the work of mercenaries, they usually eat and drink well, and they also get a good salary, once there is danger, then they also need to go up, and if necessary, they have to use their bodies to plug the gun's hole.
It can be said that the people who can work as security guards in the jadeite mining areas of Myanmar are a group of outlaws who do not want to die.
In normal times, if the Kachin army and government forces encounter these security guards, they usually do nothing to the security guards in the mining area.
As for the stone selector, the importance of the stone selector in the mining area is even greater than that of the security guard.
In jadeite mining areas, most of the stones dug up by miners do not contain jadeite, but there are also jadeite-containing ones.
How do you tell the difference?
That's where these experienced stone selectors come in.
Most of these separators are veteran miners who have worked in the mining area all their lives.
They are very experienced, and whether there is jade in a stone or not, they can tell if there is a jade in it, they can tell by looking, touching or even knocking on the sound.
Every stone excavated from the mining area has to be selected by a stone selector.
Moreover, the stone selector does not select these stones once, but crosses them at least three times, and finally determines which stones can be stored and those stones can be thrown into the ore dump The value of jadeite is very high, if the ability of the stone selection master is insufficient, then it is easy to throw away those rough stones containing jadeite as garbage, and this situation will naturally cause great losses to the mine owner.
Similarly, if the separator selects too much rough stone that does not contain jadeite and puts it in the warehouse, it will also affect the income of the mine owner.
Therefore, how to select the right jadeite rough from those excavated ores requires the skills of the stone selector.
Whether the boss of a field can make money also depends on the level of the stone master.
In the mining areas of Myanmar, a top-notch stone selector is hard to come by.
The so-called "gambling stone masters" and "gambling stone experts" outside are absolutely different from the stone separators in the mining area.
It is no exaggeration to say that the so-called "gambling stone masters" outside who hate to be praised by stone friends are not even worthy of lifting shoes for the stone selection masters in the mining area.
How many pieces of jadeite rough can those so-called "gambling stone masters" outside come into contact with in a lifetime?
And what about the stone selector in the mining area?
It is possible to come into contact with hundreds or even thousands of ores in a day, and if these stone separators do not look at tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of jadeite rough stones a year, they are embarrassed to say that they are stone separators Yang Jing is not short of money, so when Mike Ale instructed Wu Qinmaung to open here, he told Wu Qinmaung very clearly that as long as he can find a good stone selection master, he will not hesitate to spend as much as he wants!
Therefore, last year, when Wu Qinmaung opened up the Wuma field, he spent a high salary to dig up dozens of stone selection masters from other fields, and even dug up four stone selection masters in the famous "Ten Divine Eyes" in the entire northern Myanmar jade mining area.

The four old men in their fifties in front of them are the four "divine eye" stone selection masters who are very famous in the entire mining area of northern Myanmar.
Each of the four of them leads a professional stone selection team composed of seven or eight stone separators to select the excavated ores and cross-select each other.
A batch of excavated ore needs to be screened four times before it is finally determined which piece can go into the warehouse and which piece will be disposed of in the ore dump.
Of course, if you encounter something that you can't see, then just open the window or cut it.
That's why there are so many window materials and open materials on the Myanmar market.
Most of these window materials and plain materials are directly wiped out or cut out when the stone selection masters are not sure to see it.
The big box that Yang Jing brought when he came, including Wu Qinxiang, didn't know what it contained.
As a result, when Yang Jing took out two boxes of Moutai from the big box, including the four stone selection masters, his face was full of joy.
Northern Myanmar is very poor, and materials are extremely scarce, where have they usually seen Moutai!
Naturally, everyone was happy to eat a meal, and the four old men were all put down, but Tun Qin and the other two deputy security captains didn't drink much, which made Yang Jing a little impressed.
After eating and drinking, Yang Jing lived in Wu Qinxiang's large room made of stone.
In the mining area, the only stone houses are warehouses and the residences of the mine owners.
Of course, the more than 200 pieces of glass jade rough stones selected and the big box brought by Yang Jing were also followed into this stone house.
During the day, the mine is full of chaos, but at night, the mine immediately becomes quiet.
Except for the faint sound of diesel generators coming from the warehouse not far away, the entire mining area fell silent.
After a tiring day's work, the miners would plunge into bed and go to sleep, the last of their strength had been exhausted by the day's fatigue, and the next day, the same tiring work awaited them.
Moreover, in the area where Yang Jing's Wumachangkou is located, except for a few diesel generators for the warehouse, there is not even electricity in other places, let alone any entertainment activities.
Therefore, at night, these miners will fall asleep early, and seize all the time to recover their strength.
Yang Jing is usually half a night owl, and it is difficult for him to fall asleep after twelve o'clock at night, although he drank a lot of wine at dinner, but it was only ten o'clock, and Yang Jing still couldn't sleep.
Putting on a coat, Yang Jing opened the door and walked out.
A German pastor at the door heard the sound and ran over, Yang Jing touched the guy's head, and made the big guy "woo" twice comfortably.
This German Mu was raised by Wu Qinxiang, and when he ate at night, this German Mu followed Yang Jing's ass to eat good things, so he was already familiar with Yang Jing.
This German pastor was specially raised by Wu Qinxiang to watch the gate and nursing home, and he was very loyal and powerful.
Yang Jing walked a few steps and came to the gate of the courtyard, first walked around the yard with a flashlight, picked up a lot of stones from the ground and threw them into the storage space, until he picked up more than 200 pieces before stopping, and then found a stone and sat down, and the dog was also obedient to Yang Jing's side.
Yang Jing gasped slightly, lit a cigarette, and looked up at the starry sky while reaching out to stroke the dog's soft hair.
The weather tonight is very good, there is no moon in the sky, and except for the lights in the warehouse area, all the other places around here are all dark, and there is very little light pollution, so Yang Jing can clearly see the stars in the sky.
A white jade ribbon stretches across the sky, and there are some bright stars hanging in all directions of the sky, making the night sky look extraordinarily gorgeous.
This kind of starry sky is no longer visible in most cities in China in later generations, whether it is the heavily polluted atmosphere or the ubiquitous light pollution, it has completely blocked the gorgeous Milky Way.
Yang Jing looked at the starry sky with his neck a little greedy, this feeling was very good.
However, not long after he looked at it, he heard the dog next to him suddenly let out a low roar like a warning, and quickly stood up from the ground, his head pointed in one direction, and whispered "whining".
