Chapter 591 A hundred years late
The earthquake in the fourth year of Xianfeng caused a major landslide in Taier Mountain.
After the earthquake, it was completely changed beyond recognition. The green channel for the jade trade between Myanmar and China completely disappeared. Even the jade making workshop in the middle of the mountain was buried by the mountain, and no trace can be found.
In that era without construction machinery, repairing mountain roads was an extremely large, time-consuming and labor-intensive project.
And there is no guarantee whether we will encounter the next disaster.
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, the road in Taiershan was abandoned and the small road in Dali was expanded to replace it.
Yesterday at the fair, Lu Fei could tell that the coachman's cousin spoke with a Chongteng accent.
The coachman's cousin said that what he picked up was a raw jade stone. No one else believed it, but Lu Fei believed it because Lu Fei knew this history.
The Mao Zigou that the man was talking about, Lu Fei thought, should be the site of the green channel for the jade trade. ??
The coachman's cousin said that the jadeite stones exposed by the landslide were probably the jadeite warehouse that was buried as a jade workshop. It would be really cool if that were true.
So Lu Fei asked Wang Xinlei and Gao Yuan to conduct an on-the-spot investigation based on the address described by the coachman's cousin.
After a whole morning of searching, we finally found the Mao Zigou mentioned by the coachman’s cousin.
Seeing these photos, Lu Fei was extremely excited.
Judging from the background of the photo, the landslide area is very large, with countless rocks scattered.
Although the landslide surface was covered with vegetation, Gao Yuan easily found twenty-six jadeite rough stones of different sizes, which was enough to prove Lu Fei's guess.
This is where the Zuoyufang warehouse was buried.
These twenty-six rough stones vary in size.
The big one weighs over a hundred kilograms, and the smallest one weighs about ten kilograms.
No matter how big or small, the performance is extremely outstanding.
Judging from the color of the wild belt, there are actually two pieces of red jade in it, which is very rare.
After the excitement, worrying things followed one after another.
The location where the rough stone was found was two kilometers away from the nearest mountain road. How should such heavy rough stone be transported out?
In addition, Lu Fei must still have most of the rough stones buried in the mountain. How to dig out those rough stones is another headache.
The little milk dog pouted and said.
"Brother, I have an idea, but it's just a bit of a waste."
"tell me the story."
"Brother, I think the scenery there is nice. We can use construction machinery to dig directly under the guise of developing a tourist resort."
"In this way, it will not arouse suspicion and get twice the result with half the effort. The only drawback is that it will cost some money."
Lu Fei's eyes lit up at the little milk dog's plan.
“In your calculations, how much would it cost to develop a resort here?”
The little milk dog thought for a while and said.
"This sterile place does not involve demolition. The only thing that costs money is road construction. It is estimated that 30 to 50 million is enough, but the key point is that it is not worth it!"
"Three to fifty million so cheap?"
In Lu Fei's eyes, any project would cost tens of millions or hundreds of millions. The cost of developing a resort in the mountains would be even higher.
Unexpectedly, the little milk dog said that it only needed 30 to 50 million, which was somewhat unexpected.
The little milk dog smiled slightly.
"Brother, the project cost is not as abnormal as you think!"
"If you look at those projects worth tens of millions or hundreds of millions, most of the funds are actually consumed on land and demolition."
"The actual construction only costs a few hundred yuan per square meter."
"This is a place where birds don't poop. There is no need for demolition, which saves a lot of money."
"Relevant local departments will definitely support the development of this barren mountain, and the land is probably priced at a cabbage price."
"So the only place that costs money is the two kilometers of mountain roads. The budget of 30 to 50 million yuan is definitely more than enough."
Lu Fei nodded and said after listening.
"Then do it!"
"Okay, no, dear brother, what did you say?"
"You don't really want to develop a resort, do you?" Little Milk Dog asked.
"Isn't it only 30 to 50 million? Then develop one." Lu Fei said.
"does it worth?"
"Of course it's worth it. It's only 30 to 50 million. If you pay a high price, you'll get everything."
"I'm going to stay here with Wang Xinyi until the public sale is over. I'll leave it to my brother to run away regarding Taiershan. Is there any problem?" Lu Fei asked.
"no problem."
"I will contact Wang Xian later. He is a local snake and has good relations with the relevant departments."
"Go directly to Wang Xian and ask him to take you through the procedures."
"After you have obtained the procedures, don't worry about money. Hire more construction machinery and build a simple mountain road as quickly as possible. Then slowly repair the rest."
“Also, hire an excavator to take the lead in clearing these areas.”
"I judge that the location of Zuoyufang's warehouse should be nearby."
"I understand, my brother!"
Go to Chongteng to show off to the local authorities. The little girl liked this job very much and agreed without hesitation.
Just do what you say, go back to the hotel to pack your things, Lu Fei explains some more details, and an hour later, the little puppy sets off to rush forward.
It was already past three o'clock in the afternoon when the little puppy was sent away. There was no point in going to the auction anymore, so Lu Fei simply fell asleep.
After Wang Xinyi came back, she took stock of the day's harvest, and they had dinner at the hotel.
\u003e
After a tiring day, everyone went to bed early. At around one o'clock in the morning, Lu Fei quietly left the hotel alone.
More than an hour later, an insignificant black shadow appeared under the Elder Peak of Danxia Mountain. This shadow was, of course, Lu Fei.
When Lu Fei came to Elder Peak in the middle of the night, he didn't just come for a leisurely trip, but came to pick up a valuable treasure that he had left here in his previous life.
This is also the most important purpose of Lu Fei's visit to Yangcheng.
In the last life, Lu Fei and others set out from Yangcheng to rob ships in the South China Sea.
Before leaving, Lu Fei got a valuable treasure from the foreign devils and hid it under the Elder Peak.
Coming here again after a hundred years, Lu Fei felt unspeakable emotions in his heart.
Standing under the mountain peak to identify the direction, Lu Fei walked decisively to the southeast.
After passing through the protective net of the scenic area and entering a bush, after walking hard for more than ten minutes, a five-meter-high oval boulder that was somewhat similar to a turtle shell appeared in front of me.
Leaning against the boulder, Lu Fei was extremely nervous.
A hundred years have passed, but I hope that thing is still there. If someone gets there first, it will be destroyed.
After walking around behind the boulder, he found the irregular T-shaped mark he had left on the boulder. He followed the mark and looked at the soil on the ground. Lu Fei was determined.
The soil has not been touched and the stuff is 100% still there!
After confirming the location, he put down his bag, took out his engineering shovel, and started digging.
After digging about a foot, Lu Fei's movements became gentler.
Ten centimeters further down, Lu Fei threw away the engineer shovel and started cleaning up with both hands.
A few minutes later, Lu Fei invited out a twenty-five centimeter square sandalwood box wrapped in oil paper.
After removing the oil paper, the sandalwood box inside was still intact. Lu Fei raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with relief.
"Old friend, I'm a hundred years late. Lu Fei apologizes."
