The Book of Appreciation

Chapter 216 Jewelry

Several people divide the work, two deal with the yard, and two dig the roots of the wall, and they switch jobs when they get bored.After an afternoon of work, it was very effective. A large pit was dug in the yard, which is estimated to be able to hold a coffin, and a large part of the foundation was exposed. Unfortunately, there was no harvest on both sides!

Wu Di drove the sparrow over to help dig the yard, and squatted in the big hole under the wall alone and started worrying.The doraemons always thought that something was buried, so they didn't know that the treasure had actually been dug out, and it was placed at the bottom of the foundation!

The foundation is the foundation of a house. If two pieces are taken away, the house may be in danger.But without digging them out and leaving them here, Wu Di will never do it.However, this is the foundation, and it has been pressed for so many years. Even if you want to dig it out, it will take a lot of trouble. Could it be that the house is really demolished?That movement must be too loud, right?

The military division came a little late, mainly because his size was not suitable for dressing up as a Burmese, so he waited until it was dark before climbing in through the courtyard wall.Everyone gave him a warm welcome, because he brought the most important combat supplies, dinner!

After taking a few bites casually, Wu Di called a meeting of the staff, and he pointed to the foundation and said:

"Did you see that the two long strips at the bottom are two precious pieces of glass. The question now is how can we get them out."

Sparrow had been digging for a long time just now, but he didn't know what he was digging. Now that he heard that the glass seed had been dug out, he couldn't help jumping into the pit to take a look.Just at this glance, I was stunned!He is no longer the guy who just got out of the army and doesn't know anything. After helping Wu Di untie the wool for a week, the glass species still knows him.These two pieces have been cut in order to pursue the shape. Isn't the exposed part the attractive emerald green?It's just that these two pieces are so big, maybe they weigh hundreds of catties?How much is that worth?

The military master grabbed the sparrow by the neck and grabbed the kid out. Then, holding a flashlight, he studied it carefully and said:

"Fifth brother, I have a solution. Continue to dig down, hollow out this place, take away the stones from below, and then get two pieces from the fence to fill them back."

"Will the house collapse when you dig it out?"

"Probably not. The upper layers of the foundation are squeezed against each other and can bear part of the longitudinal pressure. However, these two pieces of jadeite may be damaged when they are pulled out."

"If you get hurt, just get hurt. If you can't do it, it's okay if you don't. Talent is the greatest wealth, so we must pay attention to safety!"

Wu Di said casually, but the military division was touched. The Iron Blood Corps carried out the most dangerous missions. Although he is young, he can't remember how many times he has gone through life and death.He remembered that every time before departure, Zhong Da always patted his shoulder, stared into his eyes, and said the same words,

"Remember, you are the greatest wealth of the motherland, let me come back safely!"

He saw that Wu Di was unintentional, but unintentional is the most precious thing!At this moment, Wu Di's bravery in killing the leopard, and Zhong Da's instructions exactly the same, merged into one before his eyes.He began to think, should he really come here for a while, or should he continue?

It was getting late, and several people did not dare to dig with picks, and even shoveled carefully, for fear that the noise would be loud and attract the attention of neighbors.

Doraemon and Military Division, the two strong ones, switched over to dig out the jadeite, while Sparrow and Zhang Fei continued to dig the grave, wrongly, they were digging the yard.

The group of people had just had a meal and rested for a while. It was the time when they had strength. Although they were careful, their movements were not slow. In less than an hour, the big hole in the yard had expanded by one-fifth!

Wu Di was about to replace the sparrow, when suddenly there was a muffled sound of "Dang", and the sparrow immediately let out a low cry:

"***, there is really something under here!"

Hearing his voice, several people quickly gathered around, and the sparrow shoveled several times. Under the moonlight, a black thing appeared in the yellow soil sprinkled with a layer of silver frost. It was an iron box!

Sparrow and Zhang Fei quickened their movements, and after a while, the outline of the box was revealed, half a meter long and nearly thirty centimeters wide.Sparrow rubbed his hands together and said with a smile:

"Hey, big guy! It can hold a lot of things."

He and Zhang Fei shoveled along the edge of the box, and dug out the box in a short while. It really was a big guy, as tall as forty centimeters!

The two carried the box, hey, and threw it to the edge of the pit. The sparrow laughed and said:

"Look at it first, there is another one next to it!"

It was a metal box, which was almost rusted, and was hung with an open lock. Wu Di knocked it down with a hammer, and was about to reach out to lift the lid, but the military officer stopped him.

"Fifth brother, wait, be careful there are tricks!"

Wu Di had already seen through it, this is an ordinary box.However, this remark was a bit ulterior, so he nodded, stepped aside, and watched the military master squat down, scrape off the floating rust on the box surface, and use a shovel to lift the box cover from the side!

Seeing that there was no reaction, the three of them moved closer and looked at it. Sure enough, a smile appeared on Wu Di's face.The robot cat bent down and randomly picked up a red stone, and said strangely:

"This isn't emerald, is it? Why do you think this person is free to bury this box of little red stones?"

The military division looked at the box of small stones, thoughtful.Wu Di raised his foot and gave the Doraemon,

"I don't know what to do, think about what else Myanmar produces besides jade?"

"Produce wood!"

"It's a ruby!"

The military division took over the conversation, he knew this thing.

"That's right, to be precise, it should be a rough ruby, not a ruby ​​that hasn't been cut!"

"ruby?"

Now even the two people who were tossing the other box stopped their movements. Just because they haven’t seen it doesn’t mean they haven’t heard of it. In the past few years, the name of Ruby has been greatly resounding!

Wu Di was flipping through to see if there were any larger stones, when the sparrow suddenly let out a hey,

"It's here again, the same big guy! You drive, let me see if there are any more!"

Open the lid of the box in the same way, and this is a box of small stones mixed in various colors.

"Colorful gems?"

Doraemon's mind is quite fast, and he immediately thought of a name. Wu Di smiled and said:

"This is a rough sapphire! Sapphire is a general term for other colors besides red ruby ​​in corundum gemstones. There are many colors, including blue, pink, yellow, green, and white. There are even multiple colors on the same ore. a color."

"I still like this blood red, manly!"

The sparrow climbed up at some point, picked up a rough ruby ​​the size of an egg and said.Wu Di glanced back, Zhang Fei was still digging, probably this kid was a little depressed, the sparrows were the first to discover two such big boxes!

Turning his head to look at the rough stone in Sparrow's hand, he was surprised to find that this kid's luck is really not covered!In Pingzhou, there was a piece of high ice in the pile of woolen materials he picked, but this time he picked up another piece of top-quality pigeon blood ruby!

"Why are they so small? What's left after cutting them up?"

The sparrow threw the rough stone back into the box, looking rather dispirited.

"Boy, this thing is sold by carat, understand? Twenty carats is equivalent to one gram! The largest cut ruby ​​in the world is the Carmen in the National Museum of Natural History? Lucia Ruby, known as Priceless, only 23.1 carats. How much more do you want?"

"Huh? 23 carats, just one gram? How big is one gram? Is this piece as big as it is cut?"

Just now Wu Di groped for a long time but couldn't find an extra-large one. The sparrow fished it casually and took out a rough stone weighing at least [-] grams!

Wu Di took the original stone, looked inside, shook his head,

"Only a few two-carat rubies can be cut from this piece at most, but there will be quite a few one-carat rubies, which are already very valuable."

"Worth it? How much is it worth?"

Doraemon now also likes to use money to measure the value of a baby, there is no way, it is intuitive!

"A one-carat top-quality natural pigeon blood ruby ​​should be close to [-] US dollars, right? But rubies also have a carat premium. The larger the particle, the price increases exponentially. The price of more than ten carats will be more expensive than diamonds of the same quality."

Zhang Fei didn't know when he climbed up silently, and he also took a piece of rough sapphire to study, while the sparrow explained to them in a low voice what geometric multiples and carat premiums are, triumphantly, as if he knew like.

Wu Di kicked his butt lightly, and said in a low voice:

"You kid, you just love to talk nonsense! Have you rested enough? If you have enough rest, then dig, I think there should be more!"

"Anything else? Such a big box, it's easy to see, shouldn't it be gone?"

"Hmph, if it were you, would you only hide the rough stones and not the cut ones?"

The sparrow slapped his forehead,

"Oh, it's true! Feizi, work!"

"Watch out for the sidewalls around the pit, the cut boxes may be small!"

"Okay!"

I heard that there is a baby. This kid is more motivated than anyone else. He jumped into the pit quickly and started working. The military master smiled, led Wu Di to the wall, and said,

"Basically all the glass seeds are exposed. Why don't you tear down a little of the courtyard wall first and pick two stones to support it. When the bottom is completely suspended, pry off the two pieces and replace them with big stones."

Wu Di saw that the foundation had been dug a lot deeper. Not only were the two pieces of glass fully exposed, but a part of the bottom had been suspended.He jumped down and kicked it with his foot, and found that the glass seed was stuck to the cement and surrounding stones. He couldn't help cursing secretly, and asked:

"Is there any good way?"

"There is a drill here, take it out slowly later, it won't take much effort."

Wu Di nodded, squatted aside and continued to look at it.The military division and the robot cat started to pry the courtyard wall, because the courtyard wall was also made of cement, and they didn't dare to use much force, so it was very difficult to pry it up.Wu Di looked at it for a while and said:

"It's better to find something to put in the box and fill it in later! Now take two floor tiles to support it."

The military division took a look at the size and said with a smile:

"Don't tell me, it's really good. Use these floor tiles to pack the box after the top is finished, so as not to be unsound in the future."

As soon as the words fell, the voice of the sparrow came over:

"My mother, there really are! Fifth brother, you are amazing!" (To be continued.)
