【119】 Lightning Strikes Rosewood! [Ask For Automatic Subscription]

Returning to town in the afternoon, miners came home one after another.

Lin Xuan was in the garden on the second floor of Lanjiang's villa, watching people passing by from time to time.

"Aren't you afraid that some of them will dig up a good jade and then run away with the jade without telling you?"

Lan Xirou: "The jadeite stone is so heavy...how can I run away with it?"

"The people below the mine are densely packed, and no one can run away with the mine."

"If someone runs away with the mine, the mine will become a contraband, and no one else will know about it. Anyway, the mine owner here will not pay for it.

How many people use jade in Myanmar?

Not many people can afford it.

People who can afford jade live in wealthy areas of big cities, and miners have no access to it.

Many miners saw someone on the second floor of the villa.

"Hey, the boss is here!"

"Where's the big boss?"

"It's probably over there in the office.

"Who is the man with the eldest lady?"

"Just mind your own business and ask less questions."

After a while, Lan Jiang came back and was blocked. The miners took out a lot of antiques.

Lan Jiang made a judgment and accepted most of them.

Of course, you have to spend money to buy it.

No wonder they were so excited when they saw Lan Jiang coming back. It turned out to be to sell things.

Lin Xuan saw Lan Jiang coming back with a lot of antiques: "It's good, so many people are helping you collect antiques, Master.

Lan Jiang smiled: "These things are not valuable here. They are worth more when they are taken back. They hunt for antiques everywhere to supplement their family income.

“Perhaps when Myanmar’s economy improves, they will become collectors just like the first batch of literary and entertainment people in Yanjing.

Early in the morning, Anan lined up a group of people to accompany Lin Xuan and Lan Xirou into the mountains for hunting.

Lan Xirou: "Let me tell you something about the protected animals here. Protected animals cannot be beaten."

Lin Xuan: "Chafan gave me a gun license before and said that except for tigers and elephants, I can't shoot anything else."

Lan Xirou: "The gun licenses they issue also depend on the situation in each place. In Canbang, cats are not allowed to be shot, and there are relatively few other restrictions."

The team entering the mountain is on foot.

But this place is originally next to the forest. Once you enter the mountain, you are isolated from the world.

Soon, a porcupine was discovered.

The guard captain's name is Maung Shan.

However, his team members all call him Wu Shan.

People here in Myanmar do not have surnames, only first names, which range from one character to seven or eight characters.

If an elder is called a junior, or a person with a high social status is called a person with a low social status, add the word "meaning" in front of his name.

And if someone is flat, add the word "Guo".

When this person reaches a certain social status, he needs to add the word "武" in front of his name.

I often see someone from Myanmar named Wu on TV.

In fact, it's not that their surname is Wu, but it means Mr. XX.

Maung San: "Mr. Lin, do you want to try it out?"

Lin Xuan: "He Meng, you try?"

He Meng raised his hand and fired a shot, then finished.

The porcupine fell to the ground.

Mang Shan was surprised: "Awesome!!!"

He Meng: "The boss' shooting is much more accurate than mine."

Lan Xirou didn't know this and wondered: "Are you a good shooter?"

Lin Xuan: "Not bad."

Lan Xirou: "Let's continue."

Walking inside, she encountered a pheasant. Lan Xirou was about to raise her gun and shoot when an arrow flew through the space in front of her and pinned the pheasant to the ground.

Lan Xirou turned around and saw Lin Xuan retracting her bow and returning it to the team members: "Do you like the primitive technique of bow and arrow?"

Lin Xuan: "I haven't used a bow and arrow to fight against real wild animals. Let's give it a try."

Maung Shan picked up the pheasant and hung it on his horse: "Let's go north today, and we will stay at the top of the mountain.

"There is no miasma in the mountains here, but it is safer to choose that location."

This Burmese can hold a very high position in the security team of the mining area, and being sent by Anan to protect Lan Xirou speaks volumes in itself.

His ability is at least one level stronger than that of the Dragon Nation people of the same level in the escort team.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to be promoted as an exception.

As far as he is concerned, it’s still okay.

The expeditionary force lost 100,000 lives here, all due to miasma, snakes, insects, rats, and ants.

As the team advanced, the guards did not fight, leaving the prey to Lin Xuan and the others.

Lin Xuan: "Don't you want to have fun?"

Maung Shan smiled: "Mr. Lin, the local in my team had a poor family when he was a child, so he hunted in the mountains. Now he has joined the big boss's company, and he has made his mark."

"Hunting is not new to them."

"It's a completely different thing than someone in a high position enjoying hunting."

Lin Xuan nodded: "That's true."

There are many people hunting here, and their list of protected animals is different from that in China.

In China, in accordance with the Washington Convention II, all internationally protected animals were defined as protected animals.

Myanmar only defines rare animals as protected animals.

The key point is that in some places in the north, if the mountain people are not allowed to cultivate a large number of fields, they must be allowed to hunt.

It's like traveling to a city and going to their commercial pedestrian street or ancient style street.

The locals will think that there is nothing interesting in this stupid place.

But on the other hand, rich people will be very happy if they eat the same things that they are tired of eating every day.

While the team was marching, He Meng suddenly raised his gun and pointed it at the tree next to him.

Above the tree, a black shadow instantly fell to the ground and disappeared into the dense forest.

"Black Panther?"

He Meng: "We have entered the core area of ​​the mountain forest, and the number of predators has increased."

When crossing the stream forward, a reticulated python was lying casually, slowly and leisurely.

This thing really can't be described by one piece, its diameter is too thick.

The reticulated python is the longest snake in the world, longer than the anaconda, but not as large in cross-section.

Lin Xuan: "Take a picture for me." He said and walked up.

Maung Shan hurriedly said: "Mr. Lin, be careful, these pythons are wild. If you get close to them, they will be very wild.

“If you want to take photos of reticulated pythons, it’s best to look for those with round bellies after being fed. Those reticulated pythons are too lazy to move.”

He Meng smiled: "The boss is much better than you think."

Maung Shan stopped him, and Lin Xuan had already arrived next to the reticulated python.

Lan Xirou took pictures with her mobile phone.

This reticulated python is very long, almost six meters.

After being approached, he became very vigilant and turned his head to stare at Lin Xuan.

Pythons are rarely interested in adults because they are too big for them to swallow.

However, there is still a risk of being bitten if you mess with them.

There are three rows of teeth in the reticulated python's mouth, totaling hundreds of teeth. Even if it is bitten and loosened, there will be hundreds of holes.

If you don't let go, just wait for your legs to be scrapped.

But Lin Xuan glanced back at the reticulated python and didn't care.

Lan Xirou: "Be careful!"

The reticulated python's tail drew a circle and wrapped around it, trying to wrap around Lin Xuan.

Lin Xuan really didn't pay attention and was surrounded.

"Super enhanced mode."

After strengthening his strength, Lin Xuan jumped out with his legs.

The reticulated python was immediately freed.

The reticulated python that was freed felt the huge force on its tail. Its biological instinct told it that this was an enemy it could not afford to offend, so it hurriedly entered the stream and swam away.

Maung Shan was about to step forward to save people, but found Lin Xuan broke free: "Huh? What a lot of strength!"

Lin Xuan: "Let's go, let's continue on our way. If it rains, we might not be able to reach the camping place."

He Meng asked Maung Shan: "Aren't these horses tired from walking such a long distance?"

Animals are different from humans. All animals in the world cannot compete with humans in endurance. If allowed to rest, horses can barely match humans in endurance.

But the horse carries a lot of things on its back!

Maung Shan: "These horses are the horses used to pull ore in the mine. They can't run fast, but the camels are very powerful."

Hunting is all about finding.

Look for opportunities.

Then take the opportunity and feel that sense of accomplishment.

Because the team is too large, it is actually not easy to find prey.

“It’s normal not to encounter any large prey on the first day in the mountains.

Large animals were encountered, including black panthers and reticulated pythons.

But that thing can't be beaten.

One afternoon, Tuyu caught a big prey.

A sheep.

We also encountered a Qiang deer on the road, but that thing was also a cherished and protected animal, so no one did anything.

Finally met a big guy, Lin Xuan: "Xirou, you come and fight, I will make up for it."

Lan Xirou raised her gun: "I'll try my best to finish it with one shot."

Finding an opportunity, Lan Xirou pulled the trigger.

"Filt!"

The sheep turned around and ran away. Lin Xuan raised his hand and shot him.

A group of people moved forward quickly.

The sheep ran two meters away and fell to the ground.

When he got closer, He Meng took a look: "The first shot was also hit, but it didn't hit the chest, it hit the front leg."

Maung Shan: "Carry it away."

Because there are so many people, they are not afraid that the smell of blood will attract predators.

So we just took the sheep and set off.

It was close to four o'clock in the afternoon before we arrived at the planned camping place.

A group of people began to set up camp.

He Meng: "Here, someone can help me. I'll skin this sheep."

The sheep was hung on a tree, and He Meng peeled it off starting from the feet.

Originally, He Meng didn't know how to do this, but after raising a big pig at home and often bringing back live sheep to cut the meat and feed them, He Meng has become more and more skillful recently.

Maung Shan: "Miss, you have to set up your tent inside. It's not safe for you to be alone at night."

Lan Xirou: "Let's keep this small tent. I'll use the twin tent. Lin Xuan will share a tent with me at night."

Twin-bed tent? Mang Shan nodded after hearing this: "It's okay. At least there is a guy next door. Mr. Lin is very agile, so he can do it."

The tent was set up and an awning was set up to protect us from the rain.

Just after collecting firewood, heavy rain came.

It is indeed the rainy season.

It is very rare to be able to stabilize the market without rain.

Now that we have entered the mountains, heavy rain has come.

As Maung Shan said, although there is less miasma in the valley, problems can easily arise after heavy rains come.

This is halfway up the mountain, and the situation is much better.

Fortunately, I brought enough tents and awnings.

Not to mention people, horses have a place to stay.

He Meng was embarrassed when he saw this situation: "Boss, it's raining heavily now, so we can't dig a stove, and it's not easy to cook.

Lin Xuan: "This sheep is enough for everyone, let's just roast the whole sheep."

Maang Shan scratched his head: "Mr. Lin, I don't know how to roast a whole lamb."

"You can't, I can." Lin Xuan: "Burn the charcoal first. If you want to roast the whole sheep, it will take an hour to burn the charcoal."

Roasting a whole lamb over an open fire is definitely not acceptable. The outside will be burnt but the inside will not be cooked yet.

First, burn all the wood into charcoal without an open flame.

Several guards added firewood to the fire, and Lin Xuan's eyes lit up: "Stop."

Lin Xuan grabbed the guard and asked, "Where did this come from?"

The guard pointed to the place downhill: "It was chopped over there.

Seeing Lin Xuan's move, Maung Shan also looked at the branches: "Eh? Red sandalwood?!"

This is a precious tree.

Maung Shan slapped the guard on the head: "Didn't you read the manual of rare animals and plants I gave you?"

The guard rubbed the top of his head: "Ah?"

Maung Shan: "The trees on this mountain are all the private property of the big boss. Do you know how expensive the red sandalwood is? Can you cut it down for firewood?"

Guard: "This is red sandalwood. The tree was struck by lightning. There are no leaves. I didn't notice it."

Lin Xuan and Lan Xirou looked at each other.

"Lightning strikes rosewood?"

In the domestic market, lightning-struck rosewood can be seen everywhere, but that is a bit nonsense.

Rosewood itself is almost extinct, so where did so many lightning-strike rosewood come from? They are all fake.

Lightning strike wood is inherently a very expensive wood, and rosewood itself is also very expensive.

Putting the two attributes together, there should not be many in the world.

But it's so lucky to meet one.

A treasure worth hundreds of millions!

Lan Xirou: "Let's go take a look, give me the poncho."

Maung Shan: “Miss, it’s raining so heavily now…………”

"This little rain is nothing. A lightning-struck rosewood tree is supported by a top-quality jade stone."

After hearing this, the guards probably understood that they had encountered something good.

Lin Xuan and Lan Xirou put on their raincoats.

Maung Shan took out something like a coir raincoat from his horse and put it on.

Walk all the way there.

"Sure enough, it's lightning struck rosewood."

Lin Xuan: "Good stuff."

Lan Xirou: "Do you have a signal on your mobile phone? Call my dad and ask him to bring someone back.

This thing is no longer confidential. If it is placed here, it may be gone one day.

A group of people looked at their cell phones, but there was no signal.

The mobile phone with a strong signal radio that Mang Shan brought also had no signal: "There is no signal now, at least we have to wait until the rain stops."

Lin Xuan: "I'll do it."

Lin Xuan dialed Lan Jiang's number.

Lan Jiang answered the phone instantly: "Lin Xuan, do you have something going on in the mountains?"

"Did you encounter a criminal or a poacher?"

Here, it is very common for criminals to hide in the dense forests. Mabin Town did not exist before, but it does not mean that these people will not come here.

As for poachers, they are different from mountain people who go into the mountains to hunt.

Their targets are tigers, elephants, and rhinos.

If you meet someone, you will most likely choose to silence them.

Lin Xuan: "That's not true. We encountered a lightning-struck rosewood tree here."

Lan Jiang was a little surprised when he heard lightning struck the rosewood: "Seriously?"

"Of course." Lin Xuan turned around and asked Maung Shan:

"What's the name of this place?"

Maung Mountain: "Anchor Mountain next to Yang'ergou.

"South Slope."

Lan Jiang: "Okay, you guys stay on guard for a while. When the rain stops, I'll send a helicopter over."

Lin Xuan: "Master, call me if you have anything to do. It's raining now and their phones have no signal."

"good."

Back at the campsite, Lin Xuan started roasting the whole lamb.

Several guards were still discussing the matter of lightning striking the rosewood.

They didn't expect this thing to be so valuable.

Guard: "Is it possible to find a lot of red sandalwood, dig them all out and plant them in the place where thunder strikes, and then make thunder strike rosewood?"

Another guard: "I think it's reliable. Isn't this a good deal?"

He Meng laughed loudly after hearing this: "Aren't you afraid of thunder? The lightning struck the wood and ignited it, and then burned all the red sandalwood transplanted nearby?"

"Isn't that blood loss?"

"Those places where there are thunderstorms are the most likely to catch fire."

When the guard heard this, he scratched his head: "It seems to be ouch."

He Meng: "It's just like this. Thunder doesn't happen often, but when it thunders, it always rains. Only then can lightning strike the trees."

"When the rain subsides, the trees will not go out even if they are set on fire."

"Only when there is heavy rain immediately after thunder can lightning-struck trees be left behind."

He Meng doesn't understand antiques.

But when it comes to precious trees, He Meng is no worse than an expert.

Back then, as a special forces soldier, I often had to operate deep in the mountains.

He Meng had seen all the wild first- and second-level protected plants that experts had never seen before.

After a while, the aroma of roasted whole lamb became stronger and stronger.

The whole camp was filled with fragrance.

But in the heavy rain, the fragrance doesn't travel far.

The guard who came from under the nearby shed was stunned as soon as he walked in: "It smells so good!"

"Is this sheep so fragrant?"

"Are you stupid? You haven't eaten goat before. The little boss roasted the goat with great skill, so it tastes delicious.

Lin Xuan: "It's a pity that there are no green onions. If you use chopped green onions to stimulate the aroma, it will taste more fragrant."

After all, it is not a sheep from the Mongolian area, so you have to use seasonings to avoid the fishy smell and stimulate the fragrance.

Lan Xirou sat next to her, staring at the roasted whole lamb: "You told me before that you were a good cook, but I didn't believe it.

When I was arresting the tomb robbing gang.

Lin Xuan cooked a big pot of rice on a rural earth stove, and Lan Xirou ate it once.

But then they made an appointment to go back to Yanjing and Lin Xuan cooked a meal for Lan Xirou, but Lan Xirou ran away.

He Meng: "The pressure cooker is so stuffy that the rice will have to wait for a while."

Lin Xuan cut off a little bit with a knife and tried it: "Well, it's okay."

Lan Xirou: "I want it too!"

Lin Xuan used a knife to tear off some of the crispy meat and gave it to Lan Xirou. Lan Xirou blew the hot air on the mutton with her small mouth, and then put it into her mouth: "Woo~ It's a bit hot, it smells so good! It's so crispy."

Lin Xuan: "Take it down, divide it with a knife, and roast the whole lamb."

After eating, Lin Xuan's phone rang.

Lan Jiang heard Lin Xuan answer the phone: "Hello, Master Lin."

"Hey, Master."

Lan Jiang: "The news from the weather station is that the rain won't stop until tomorrow afternoon. You may not be able to hunt."

Lin Xuan: "I have already hunted a lot of prey, just come back when I have time."

Lan Jiang: "Okay, you can camp there. The helicopter will come over as soon as the rain stops tomorrow afternoon."

"good."

After eating and drinking, Lin Xuan went into the tent and lay down.

Lan Xirou entered the tent, opened the curtain next door, went in for a while, then came out again, and threw the sleeping bag at Lin Xuan's side.

"I...it's leaking over there."

Lin Xuan made some room: "Then you can sleep here."

It was still early to go to bed, so Lin Xuan took a piece of rosewood in his hand and played with it.

"This rosewood can be used to carve something."

Lin Xuan was carving there, and Lan Xirou was watching.

This tent has two rooms and one living room, and the space is quite large.

While carving, Lin Xuan stopped and his ears moved.

Lan Xirou: "Can you still move your ears?"

Lin Xuan: "Shh, there's gunshots. Let me listen again."

In front of the curtain outside the tent, He Meng walked over: "Boss, there are gunshots."

Lin Xuan opened the door curtain: "I heard it too."
