Chapter 554 Gambling Stones in the Mining Area
The Sandara family has a unified stronghold in the old Pagan City. Experts from each family who gamble in the mining area will use this as a temporary base, and the arrival of Li Yang this time is no exception.

Old Pagan City is one of the earliest old emerald mines in Myanmar. Now most of the emerald mines here have been mined, and it has gradually become a concentrated place in the center of the mining area.

It's just that this concentrated place looks too shabby.

If Sima Lin and Li Can passed through the old town of Wacheng when they came here, it would become an extremely prosperous metropolis.Even Sima Lin, who had seen real slums before, couldn't help being a little dazed when he saw the messy, shapeless thatched cottages in front of him.

They are said to be thatched houses, but at a glance here, most of them are a few thick branches with some worn-out grass and vines, which makes people feel that such a house can be knocked down with a light push.

It was such a house, and there were some old people and children living in it. Most of them were dark-skinned. Some people not far away even looked at Li Yang and the others, and then went to do what they should do.

"Mr. Li, the conditions here are really not good. You can only make do with it these few days!"

Sandara sighed softly, stood beside Li Yang and said in a low voice, there is a two-story building behind them, which is made of stone, and it is also the best place in this area.

This small building is the temporary resting place for the gambling and mining experts in the Sandara family, and it is also their stronghold in the center.

"It's okay, I'm just, it's just a little accident!"

Li Yang had an indescribable expression on his face. Looking back at the stone building not far away, Li Yang shook his head again.

Compared with those houses where you can see vines, grass and branches when you look down, the small building behind him is a top-notch luxury villa. At least there are doors and windows here, and the electricity is also guaranteed.

But it's just to guarantee these things. It's almost impossible to live a comfortable and luxurious life here. Now Li Yang regrets bringing Wang Jiajia here.

Li Yang turned his head and looked at Wang Jiajia, feeling a little distressed, and couldn't help but said: "Jiajia, why don't I ask Mr. Sandara to take you back first, and you wait for me in the manor, anyway, I will wait for you in a few days." God will go back!"

"It's okay, this place is very good, I haven't seen such an environment before!"

Wang Jiajia raised her head, blinking her lovely big eyes, and said to Li Yang with a smile.Wang Jiajia has experienced the harsh environment in XZ. Although it is not as good as here, it is not far behind, and she still has a certain ability to resist the environment here.

"I'm serious, look here..."

Li Yang hurriedly said another word, looked back, and finally shook his head lightly. This is the poorest and most dilapidated place Li Yang has ever seen in his life.

"Really, I will follow you wherever you are. Don't worry, I will never hold you back!" Wang Jiajia gently leaned against Li Yang, feeling a little sweet in her heart.

"Okay, but you must bring it up when you can't stand it!"

Seeing that Wang Jiajia refused to leave, Li Yang had no choice but to give up. The environment here is very bad, but the stronghold of such a big family as Sandala should be better, at least their living environment can be guaranteed to a certain extent.

"Mr. Li, welcome!"

A middle-aged man in his 50s came from a distance, and there were seven or eight people behind him. The middle-aged man in the front immediately showed a bright smile when he saw Li Yang.

"Gobber?"

Li Yang looked a little surprised, and looked back at Sandara. The middle-aged man who led the way turned out to be the Uncle Gao who was in charge of the market.

"Gao Bo is your assistant this time. Although Gao Bo has been in charge of the market these years, he was always in the mining area when he was young. He is much more familiar with the environment here than I am!"

Sandara immediately explained that this time General Thornton was determined to set up the most powerful mining team for Li Yang, and even Gao Bo, who was in charge of the market, was transferred here.

But if you think about it, you can understand that without the mine veins, the family is gone. What's the use of guarding a market? The biggest problem for them at present is gambling on mines. Only by gambling on new mine veins can they continue to maintain the survival of the family.

"Mr. Li, I will work under your subordinates in the future. If you have any questions, you can find me here!"

Gao Bo's attitude was very upright, and he didn't have any dissatisfaction with Li Yang. After Zhuo Lao woke him up, and Li Yang really beat Zhuo Lao in the stone betting, Gao Bo gradually became unconvinced to Li Yang. It turned into admiration. For the continuation of the family, Gao Bo is more willing to help Li Yang with all his strength.

Besides, Li Yang really gambled out of the mine vein, and that is also his credit. Gao Bo didn't complain at all when he came to the mining area to suffer hardships and gamble on the mine this time.

The few people behind Gao Bo looked at Li Yang curiously. Most of them were over 50 and [-] years old, and they were also members of the mining team.

Some of them are geologists, biologists and mountain researchers. The emerald veins are usually hidden very deep. Coupled with various special factors in the mining area, these scientists with special skills are also important members of the gambling team.

Generally speaking, they will first analyze the area under investigation, explore the possibility of mining, and exclude those pure mountains.If he finds a place where there is a possibility of emeralds being produced, that place will become the focus of attention, and then it will be Li Yang's job.

Li Yang needs to judge from the small wool or stones found in the areas where the mine may come out, whether there is a real jadeite mine here, and if there is jadeite, whether it is worth mining.

Li Yang's real job and the most important job is to judge whether there are ore veins and the number of ore veins. This is mainly based on the experience accumulated by the mining masters in betting stones all the year round.

The ore veins are composed of emerald mines, whether there will be emeralds in it, and how many good emeralds will be produced can only be inferred by the gambling master.

In fact, the ore vein has many characteristics similar to the gambling stone. Strictly speaking, a mineral vein is a larger gambling stone. The difference is that this gambling stone is very, very large, so big that any person It is impossible to solve it by yourself.

If you want to find out whether there is emerald in this very big "gambling stone", it is not something that geologists and biologists can research. These can only be relied on those stone gambling experts with extraordinary abilities.

That's why there is a saying that a powerful stone gambling master is a powerful mining expert.

But as long as you bring something with the word "gambling", no one is sure of winning, no matter how powerful a gambling expert is, even the Emerald King has made a mistake in his judgment, and regarded an area without mineral veins as a mineral vein with emerald. mining in vain.

The same is true of the Sandara family gambling expert last time. He judged that there is a large emerald mine worth mining in a place, which surprised General Thornton. The low-quality ore veins are tantamount to gambling on mines.

Gambling on mines and crossings can cause much greater losses than gambling on stones. Every time you gamble on mining and crossings, you have to pay at least hundreds of millions of dollars.

Sandara took Li Yang to a temporary resting place, Gao Bo introduced the other team members to Li Yang, and those people looked at Li Yang curiously and suspiciously.Li Yang's age is really too young, which is not at all the same as that old gambling and mining expert who is often 70 or [-] years old.

It can be said that no one here has seen a gambling and mining expert in his 20s.

Doubts are doubts. No one dares to publicly question Li Yang's identity. In the mining area, gambling experts are the top leaders and have the highest authority.

Compared with the manor, the temporary rest place is very different. Fortunately, it is very clean. There are special people cleaning it every day, which makes Li Yang very satisfied.

Li Yang and the others arrived at the mining area in the morning, and there was still some time before lunch. After arranging the room, Li Yang simply took Wang Jiajia and Li Can to other places in the mining area, wanting to take a good look at this company that produces tens of billions of yuan every year. What does the Great Emerald Mine look like?

Sandara didn't dare to object to what Li Yang was going to do, and immediately followed with fifty or sixty heavily armed soldiers.This place is very dilapidated, and the dilapidated place is very messy. Robbery and fights here are trivial matters, and even if someone dies, no one will care about it.

"Boss, I used to watch the Hope Project, and felt that many people in our mountainous area lived in poverty, but seeing this, hey!"

After walking for about ten minutes, Li Can couldn't help sighing, and Wang Jiajia's face was also full of sympathy.

The places they walked were all those extremely simple straw and rattan sheds, which were short and small, and had almost no other purpose except to shade some sunlight.

Among these houses, as long as there are people, most of them are old people and children. Their empty eyes occasionally look back at Li Yang and the others, and then turn away by themselves, and everyone they see can't help it. Some trembling.

This is a hopeless look, as if the soul has died.

"The main reason is that the environment in the mining area is too bad. The miners here are not without money. The salaries of the mine workers are no problem to support their family. Many people will leave after making money, mainly because of the blockade. A lot of things from the outside world can’t be brought in at all!”

Sandara also sighed, and he didn't go any further when he said this. The reason for all this is actually themselves.

The mining area in Myanmar is very severely blocked, not only by the government, but also by local armed forces. Foreigners are not allowed to enter, and those without a pass are not allowed to enter.

Myanmar is a country with almost no taxes, and more than [-]% of the financial support of the state finances and local armed forces relies on the emerald mines here. It can also be said that this is their lifeblood, and the protection of lifeblood is naturally the most important.

Every force protects this place very strictly, but they don't have anyone to build it here, not even the government.

There is only one bumpy dirt road leading to the outside world, and there are checkpoints everywhere by the government and local armed forces. Ordinary businessmen who want to transport supplies from outside to sell inside do not know how many layers of extortion and exploitation they have to go through.

Even if someone can successfully ship things in, the price will be ridiculously high, making it impossible for people here to buy them. Over time, no merchants will come here, and gradually this place will become a barren place where such materials are extremely scarce. up.
