This time, Gu Hongyu took a flight to Tiannan Province. Tiannan Province is a place where spring is all year round. It has many beautiful natural scenery and was once a tourist destination that Chinese people yearned for. `

Although he only heard about the various tourist attractions in Tiannan Province, Gu Hongyu was still very excited when he was going to visit them.

It was just a pity that Mei Ning could not accompany him on the trip because she was pregnant again. If the two were together, this trip would be more perfect.

After getting off the plane in Kunming, Gu Hongyu took a car to Tengchong again.

Tengchong belongs to Tiannan Province. The urban area is 606 kilometers away from the provincial capital Kunming, 200 kilometers away from Myitkyina, Myanmar, and 602 kilometers away from Ledo, India. It is an important gateway and node for China to South Asia and Southeast Asia.

This is a famous hometown of overseas Chinese, a country of literature and a distribution center for jade, and it is also a provincial historical and cultural city.

Tengchong was called Dianyue in the Western Han Dynasty, and Tengchong Prefecture was established in the middle period of Dali Kingdom. Due to its important geographical location, all dynasties have sent heavy troops to garrison it. In the Ming Dynasty, a stone city was built, which was called "the first city on the extreme border".

This time, Gu Hongyu went to Tengchong mainly for jade.

Jade is the most needed thing for Gu Hongyu besides spiritual stones. Generally speaking, jade also contains a certain amount of spiritual energy, and the better the quality of jade, the more spiritual energy it contains. Now Gu Hongyu needs a large amount of jade to set up the spirit gathering array in some unimportant positions. `

In Tengchong, there is a market dedicated to buying and selling jade. Whether it is jadeite raw stone or finished product, you can find it here as long as you need it.

From this point of view, there are not a few people who come here to pan for gold from all over the country. Of course, there are not a few who come to gamble on stones in the hope of getting rich overnight.

However, without professional knowledge and strong luck, gambling on stones can only make many people lose their money and commit suicide.

So those who are content with what they have and can control their inner greed are truly powerful people.

In terms of gambling on stones, Gu Hongyu is an outlier and cannot be compared with ordinary people.

Because the experience in Xiangjiang has already explained it well. Since Gu Hongyu had the Xianyuan Space, his powerful sensing ability can detect the fluctuation of spiritual energy in the raw stone. According to the fluctuation of spiritual energy, he naturally knows whether there is jade in the raw stone. He even knows the quality of the jade.

It can be said that his gambling on jade in Tengchong is a very profitable job. If he ignores all the consequences, the Tengchong jade trading market will be messed up by him. Because he can find all the raw stones that can produce jade here.

However, in line with the principle of keeping a low profile, he only needs some high-quality jade that he can use for a period of time. `

With his strong assets, he doesn't need to gamble on jade desperately, and then let those who are interested find his abnormality. Doing so will not make up for the loss.

It was already afternoon when he arrived in Tengchong. Gu Hongyu, who hadn't even eaten lunch yet, walked into a street dominated by snacks based on the information he inquired. It is more like an alley than a street.

There are endless tourists coming and going, and there are countless snacks from all over the country. There are also many different styles and ups and downs of shouting that sound unique.

I found a famous cross-bridge rice noodle restaurant in Tiannan Province and ordered a cross-bridge rice noodle snack in the store. Not long after, a waiter brought a full plate of ingredients to Gu Hongyu.

Cross-bridge rice noodles have a history of more than 100 years.

According to legend, during the Qing Dynasty, there was a small island in the middle of a lake outside the city of Mengzi in southern Yunnan. A scholar went to the island to study. The scholar's wise and hardworking wife often made his favorite rice noodles and sent them to him as a meal, but when he went out to the island, the rice noodles were no longer hot.

Later, when she accidentally sent chicken soup, the scholar's wife found that the chicken soup was covered with a thick layer of chicken oil like a pot cover. It can keep the soup warm. If you put the condiments and rice noodles in when you eat, it will be more refreshing. So she first cooked the fat chicken, tube bones and other ingredients in clear soup, and covered them with thick chicken oil; the rice noodles were boiled at home, and many of the ingredients were cut thinly and boiled in boiling oil on the island, and then added to the rice noodles, which were fresh, fragrant and smooth. Once this method spread, people followed suit, because they had to cross a bridge to get to the island, and also to commemorate this virtuous wife. Later generations called it "Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles".

At this time, in the large plate in front of Gu Hongyu, there was a casserole with a lid. Needless to say, it was the thick and oily soup. On the other side of the plate, there were some dishes and bowls: rice noodles, fish fillets, pork belly, pork tenderloin, chicken breast, mushrooms, green sprouts, bean sprouts, dried tofu, quail eggs, pickled mustard, ham, chopped coriander, chopped chives. The dishes are very rich.

Of course, the side dishes of Cross-Bridge Rice Noodles are not fixed. Due to people's preferences or seasonal changes, the dishes inside are different, with some increases and some decreases.

Gu Hongyu was full after eating a bowl of cross-bridge rice noodles. The key point was that the snacks costing a few dozen yuan contained a lot of ingredients and various nutrients. The soup was also very rich. In his opinion, this kind of food was very cost-effective.

It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon. Looking at the bright sky, Gu Hongyu still planned to go to the jade trading market.

The first time he came to Tengchong, Gu Hongyu couldn't find any place, but now as long as he had money in his hand, he could get a taxi or a tricycle in Tengchong County.

He went to the raw stone trading area of ​​the jade market, and exactly twenty minutes had passed.

A narrow street was formed in the place where the raw stones were traded, but the environment here was very noisy. In addition to the voices of many people gathered together talking, the most important thing was that from time to time someone would buy the raw stones and cut them on the spot in the store, and the noise of the cutting machine would resound throughout the street.

Often at this time, more people would be attracted to watch. As long as the cutting of the stones was good, someone would immediately bid for it. When the jade cut was of high value, the owner would also set off a large string of firecrackers, first to congratulate the buyer for the excellent cutting of the stones, and second to attract more buyers' attention.

It was already past four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were not many people in the raw stone trading area at this time. Gu Hongyu guessed that many people had already finished work.

There were just a few people, so Gu Hongyu chose a larger store and walked in.

"Brother, are you going to buy raw stones?" The owner, who looked to be in his forties, asked Gu Hongyu lightly when he saw him enter the door.

Gu Hongyu smiled and said, "Why would I come here if I don't buy stones? Boss, you don't have these raw stones in front of you, do you?"

"Shuanzi, what are you doing? A customer is coming. Take him to see the raw stones." The boss sat on the armchair and shouted to the inner room, then said to Gu Hongyu, "Immediately, good things can't be placed outside."

When he finished speaking, a man about his age came out of the store, but he looked much bigger. His muscular body really had the idea of ​​making bad people retreat immediately.

The strong man looked at Gu Hongyu and said very calmly, "Looking at raw stones, right? Come with me."

Walking from the store to the inner room, I didn't expect that there was a yard inside, which was full of various stones. The strong man pointed to the stones on the ground and said, "Pick it yourself, and tell me when you are done."
