ths and laborers. They also have dedicated personnel responsible for logistical supply, similar to the Northern faction.The Sun brothers also told me about a set of slang terms passed down from the so...I explained for ages, only saying that I met this person downstairs and didn't say anything about him threatening me with a knife.

Afterwards, they divided us into three groups and tied our waists together with a climbing rope. Then, they pulled us up one by one.

When the little sprout fell down, he hit his head. Luckily our camel caravan had some hemostatic bandages. Lao Zhang poured two bottles of mineral water and wiped the blood off Little Sprout's face.

The man looked at the mineral water flowing onto the ground, swallowing hard a few times.

Seeing this, I took out a bottle of water and gave it to him. Then I took some food from his backpack and gave it to him.

This person took it and ate it right away. The dry, unleavened bread was very hard, he looked famished, and swallowed half the loaf in a few bites. He might have choked, because he hurriedly twisted open his mineral water bottle and gulped down most of it.

I patted him on the back and said, "Eat slowly, there's plenty more. Don't choke."

After he finished eating, the guide Lao Zhang took the lead and asked, "What do you do for a living Why are you hiding in the tomb"

This person spoke in the local dialect of Yinchuan, and Lao Zhang also conversed with him in the local dialect for a few sentences.

Yinchuan's local dialect sounds a bit like Cantonese, and they speak very fast, I couldn't understand what they were saying at all. I was curious why he was hiding in the sand cave, so I chimed in and said: "Can you guys please speak Mandarin"

">

This man glanced at me and then said, "I'm a driller. Six months ago, I came here with my friends to try our luck, but something went wrong."

"

" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

He asked for another bottle of water and talked for over half an hour, telling the story in fits and starts.

What he was talking about was a little strange, so I asked the guide Lao Zhang if it was true.

Lao Zhang nodded and said, "I estimate that he really knows about this. He even knows Jinfeng Huang, and Jinfeng Huang and Jinglei Huang are brothers. These two are very capable businessmen in Yinchuan."

They made their fortune in coal washing plants in Shanxi province many years ago. Around seven or eight years ago, Aladdin agate suddenly started to skyrocket in price, going up overnight. The two brothers sold their Shanxi coal washing plants and invested a huge sum of money in the Aladdin agate industry. To this day, the Jin brothers have almost monopolized 70% of the raw agate mines in Aladdin. No one knows how much money the Jin brothers actually have, but they certainly have a lot of face in Yinchuan and the surrounding cities.

There must be a reason why this man is hiding in the desert.

It turned out that about six months ago, they had a four-person team. This team of four was primarily formed to mine Hetian jade.

In the vicinity of Alashan, the work of digging agate is called "tao gong".

All agate mines in the local area, regardless of their size, are owned by someone. If you secretly go to someone else's territory to dig for agate, once caught, you will be beaten lightly at best, and if it is serious, there are even cases where people have been buried alive.

This person is named Aza, a native of Yinchuan. The agate mine they illegally dug was the one owned by the Jin Feng and Huang Jing brothers. At first, they weren't caught and successfully dug out several bags of agate raw stones, selling them to middlemen and earning tens of thousands of yuan.

Later, this group of people accidentally dug up a piece of "blood agate". The news spread, and the Jin brothers immediately found them. According to them, two of the three other people were buried alive by the big boss Jin. The remaining person and he hid themselves, pretending to be missing, afraid to go home or show their faces locally.

I don't know what "blood agate" is, I've only heard that there's a wine-red blood amber inside amber.

I asked this person what blood agate looks like.

This person said: "When we first dug it out, we were all amazed. Ordinary agate stones are usually covered in a skin. Yellow skin is called yellow skin ore, and red skin is called red skin ore. Alashan agate has rich colors and unique patterns. Like jade gambling stones, if you don't cut the stone to remove the skin, you can't see the color and pattern of the agate inside."

“ ”

He raised his head and recalled, "The piece of ore was as thin as paper, a deep crimson color. When a strong light shone on it, the red was like blood. The internal vein patterns looked like a placenta."

"Is there such a thing"

The wonder I heard.

Because agate is generally semi-transparent, even after polishing and designing into a finished product, it will not be completely transparent like glass that light can pass through. This is the characteristic of agate raw stone.

I whispered to him, "What happened later Where did that piece of blood jasper you talked about go" nothing, Boss Lady. We went on a trip, didn't we just come back Everything's fine here. We'll call you if anything happens.""" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!The next da...
