golden escape

It’s just that most of these things that happened in Myanmar were spread in private, and Burmese Buddhists told each other, and there was no uproar like the Buddha’s finger bone relic. This news also did not appear in any newspaper in Myanmar. And the media, just because Master Danbang had already ordered that this matter should not be publicly publicized. He promised Fang You that serving as the honorary abbot of the Shwedagon Pagoda Temple would never affect Fang You's normal life.

It is precisely because of this that Fang You can be so comfortable in the hotel, otherwise, not only local jewelers from China would visit him, but some excited Buddhists from Myanmar would also come to pay their respects.

More than [-]% of Burmese people believe in Buddhism. It is conceivable what a huge number this is. If the news spreads, Fang You will definitely become the object of attention of the whole Burmese.

In the evening, Liu Yuanshan brought Fang You and Yuan Tianxing to another restaurant in Nay Pyi Taw, tasted local Burmese food, and watched the night scene that was different from China, which was also a special experience.

After dinner, everyone rested early in order to recharge their energy and participate in the first day's Burmese fair.

Fang You did the same. He meditated in the room for a while, and then slowly fell asleep. He didn't have any thoughts of using the evasion technique to escape into the venue where the Burmese fair was held to watch the wool.

In his opinion, he came to participate in the Burmese public market because he wanted to experience the surprise at that moment. If he reads all of them now, the public market will be like a bun chewed by others, without any taste.

What's more, his main purpose of coming to the public market is not to make money, not to gamble countless emeralds, but to enjoy the process of betting on stones. If he wants to make money, he has a lot of means, and he doesn't need to be so troublesome through betting on stones.

Just like the shocking discovery of glass-species golden jadeite in Pingzhou Public Market, the instant ecstasy in my heart is enough to offset any fatigue.

After a night of rest, he got up in the morning to do Tai Chi, and he was immediately refreshed. Unknowingly, Tai Chi has become a part of his life. It is through such daily persistence that he can have a deeper understanding of Tai Chi. comprehension.

If he hadn't comprehended some principles of Tai Chi, no matter how much gray air flow he had in his body, he wouldn't be able to resist bullets.

Although the hotel they live in is very close to the public market, it takes more than ten minutes to walk, and most of the people living in this luxury hotel are jewelers and stone gamblers participating in the public market. Therefore, the public market organizing committee Specially sent several special cars to pick up and drop off.

However, when he got out of the door and saw the special car of the Myanmar Public Market Organizing Committee, Fang You rubbed his forehead, "Uncle Yuan, Uncle Liu, I think we'd better walk there, take this car, I guess we'll get there soon." You can come down, but you can’t come down.”

Looking at the dilapidated bus with no windows, Yuan Tianxing and Liu Yuanshan shook their heads helplessly, "Xiaoyou, the situation in Myanmar is like this. I'm afraid this bus was forced out by the Myanmar government. , Myanmar is the only place where emeralds are produced, this car has to pick up other people besides us, if you don’t ride, some people will ride.” Liu Yuanshan said with a wry smile.

Those who are eligible to participate in the Burmese public offering are not worth more than [-] million. In their own country, they are probably picked up by luxury cars, but in Myanmar, they can only take this kind of junk car.

Of course, in addition to the organizing committee's bus, you also have the option of taking a taxi, but this taxi is not much better than the organizing committee's bus.

Yuan Tianxing also had the same expression. He looked at some jewelers in cars and smiled helplessly, "Xiao You, let's walk there. Although the weather is very hot, but we are sitting in this car, and we will probably arrive at the place. It's like taking a sauna."

This suggestion was originally proposed by Fang You, so he naturally had no objection, so Fang You, Liu Yuanshan and Yuan Tianxing held umbrellas and walked along the pedestrian street towards the venue of the Burmese fair.

There were also some obese rich men who imitated Fang You's appearance and walked away, but within a few minutes of walking, they were not only unbearably hot, but also too tired to hold on.

Fang You couldn't help shaking his head after watching this. He came to participate in the fair with only this physical strength. I don't know if the jade fair is not only a job of eyesight, but also a job of physical strength. I don't have any physical strength, and I want to watch tens of thousands of people in more than ten days. A piece of wool, that's just a joke.

If the Pingzhou public market wins by the quantity of wool, then the Myanmar public market wins by quality. Although it also depends on gambling and eyesight, the probability of high-grade jadeite produced by it is much higher than that of the Pingzhou public market.

Due to the hot weather, Fang You and others walked slowly. From time to time, you could see monks wearing cassocks and holding black umbrellas or bowls. Yuan Tianxing has been to Myanmar many times and knows Myanmar very well. According to him, the people of Myanmar All Buddhist men must become monks once when they reach a certain age. The society will recognize that they are adults. In Myanmar, more than [-]% of the proportion, it can almost be said that all the people in Myanmar are monks.

Monks are also very respected in Myanmar. They have no fixed income and only rely on alms for a living every day. The people of Myanmar are very willing to give alms. Sometimes they are afraid that the alms will not be given in time, so they prepare meals in advance and wait at the door.

When walking, they can also see these monks passing by some small stalls or the door of the house for alms, and the people in those houses quickly put the prepared meals and some money into the monks' bowls, Those monks also closed their hands together and bowed slightly.

Fang You smiled slightly, it seemed that being a monk in Myanmar was a happy thing, and his honorary abbot might not be as troublesome as he imagined.

After a while, they came to the place where the fair was held, the Myanmar National Jewelry and Jade Trading Center, but at the entrance of the trading center, there were many armed soldiers guarding it, and several armored vehicles were constantly patrolling , because the Myanmar government puts the hope of stimulating the economy on the jade public market, so it is very concerned about the security measures of the public market.

At this time, the Burmese public offering has not yet started, and everyone is waiting in front of the gate of the trading center. When Fang You came, there were already hundreds of people, and now people are coming one after another, or sitting in front of the bus of the organizing committee. Come, or come in a battered cab.

"Xiaoyou, Brother Liu, take out all your invitation letters. After the door opens, we will take the invitation letter to go through the admission procedures." Yuan Tianxing watched more and more people at the scene, shook his head, and then Fang You and Liu Yuanshan said.

Fang You nodded. There are three ways to participate in the Burmese public offering. One is the invitation of the Myanmar government at all levels, which is mainly aimed at world-renowned jewelry companies. The second is the invitation of Myanmar jewelry associations at all levels, and the third is the Myanmar For invitations from jewelry trading companies, the latter two methods are the methods used by most of the people who participate in the public offering.

It’s just that the latter two methods must be reported to the organizing committee by the inviting party for approval in the form of a guarantee, so as to prevent people from maliciously escaping the bid and bidding. If there are no these three invitation letters, then the person participating in the public offering must have a guarantee from the Myanmar Jewelry Company , and pay a deposit of 1000 million kyats per person to the organizing committee before you can go through the admission procedures.

Fang You and Liu Yuanshan also use the second method, the invitation letter issued by the Myanmar Jewelry Association, and Yuan Tianxing’s invitation letter is naturally the invitation letter of the Myanmar Jewelry Trading Company. There is no difference in treatment between these three invitation methods, and they all need to be processed. Admission procedures, pay some deposit to enter the public market and start bidding.

These deposits are also used to prevent bid evasion and malicious bidding. Of course, the organizing committee has more serious punishments for bid evaders, that is, indefinitely or canceling ten emerald auctions.

These punishments are very serious for today when jadeite is becoming rarer and its value is rising day by day. This is also a measure formulated by the organizing committee to maintain the order of the public market.

With the sound of melodious music, this year’s Burmese public market officially opened without the cumbersome opening ceremony of Pingzhou public market. After paying the deposit and completing the admission procedures, you can directly enter the bid viewing state.

Fang You, Yuan Tianxing and his group came earlier, so they completed the admission procedures within a few minutes of the first few minutes, and received the admission pass and the hidden bid form. The bid specification provided is also written in English.

"Xiaoyou, should you look at the hidden bid or the open bid first? The opening of the hidden bid will take a week, while the open bid will hold an auction every day." Yuan Tianxing asked Fang You as the crowd entered the public auction venue. .

Fang You smiled lightly, "Let me take a look at the open bid first, after all, this is a material that can be obtained within a day. As for the hidden bid, it won't be too late to look at the next time."

"Well, Xiaoyou, I'll go to the hidden bid first. This time there are too many raw materials on the market. We must hurry up. When we have selected them, you must give them a reference." Yuan Tianxing said with a smile, the whole In the Burmese jadeite public market, the dark-marked wool accounts for four-fifths of the total wool, while the open-marked wool only accounts for one-fifth.

This is mainly because of the different bidding methods of hidden bids and open bids. Unlike Pingzhou public offerings, Myanmar public offerings do not have a direct transaction method, only two ways: hidden bids and open bids.

The hidden bid is also different from the Pingzhou public market. All the hidden bid bidding boxes of the Pingzhou public market are concentrated in one place, while the Burmese public market has a bidding box in front of each hidden bid wool, which saves a lot of trouble .

No one can know the bidding of the hidden bid, which means the uncertainty of the price, while the open bid is directly auctioned on the spot, and everyone will know the price, so the hidden bid is also a profit for the wool merchants the greatest way.
