The Heaven’s Jailer
Chapter 26
Because it purchases rough jadeite in Myanmar all the year round, Mu Group has set up an office here, and the person in charge of the office has been waiting at the airport early.
"Manager Liu, hello, I am the person in charge of the Yangon office, and my name is Zeng Zhijian." As soon as Liu Lang stepped out of the passageway, a middle-aged man greeted him. Liu Lang's photo had been sent here before. Therefore, Zeng Zhijian recognized Liu Lang at a glance.
"Hello, Zeng Zhijian." Liu Lang nodded slightly. Before he left, he knew about Zeng Zhijian's existence.
Zeng Zhijian secretly looked at Liu Lang.
Although he was far away abroad, he had heard a little about Liu Lang.
The former eldest son of the Liu family, the fiancé of President Mu, and the new manager of the security department, Zeng Zhijian was not very relieved that the group sent such a person to be in charge of this escort.
After all, Liu Lang is too young and has little experience. For such an important task, it is more appropriate to send a mature and prudent person, such as the original security manager Li Zhong. Zeng Zhijian had cooperated with Li Zhong several times before, but now Li Zhong He has already resigned, and was squeezed out by the young man in front of him.
"Manager Liu, let's go to the hotel first!" Although he didn't like Liu Lang very much, he still had to be courteous. Zeng Zhijian took the trolley case from Liu Lang's hand, took Liu Lang into the car and went straight to the hotel.
It's about an hour's drive from the airport to the hotel. It's the first time for Liu Lang to visit Myanmar. Looking at the houses on both sides of the road, he feels like he's back in the 1980s in China.
Fortunately, the hotel where we stayed was in good condition. Zeng Zhijian helped to complete the accommodation procedures, and then said, "It's getting late, Manager Liu should rest for a night. If there is anything else, let's talk about it tomorrow."
Liu Lang had no objection to this.
After sending Zeng Zhijian away, Liu Lang took a shower, then came to the living room of the suite, and opened the curtains to see the night view of Yangon.
"Um?"
The moment he pulled the curtains, Liu Lang suddenly felt his heart skip a beat. This feeling was like being watched by someone, and he felt uncomfortable. Out of instinct, he brushed the curtains and closed them again.
Is something bad going to happen? Liu Lang frowned. Ever since he tempered his body with the elixir, his intuition was surprisingly sensitive.
And in a certain room in the opposite building, in the darkness, a white man was holding a telescope and observing Liu Lang's room through the gap in the curtains.
"Have you been discovered?" Seeing that Liu Lang had just opened the curtains and then closed them again immediately, this made the white man feel suspicious, but he immediately denied it.
Soon, the white man took out a satellite phone and dialed the number.
"John, the target person has arrived in Yangon, and it is estimated that he will leave soon, you can set off!"
...
The next day, Zeng Zhijian came to the hotel early to wait for Liu Lang.
Seeing Liu Lang leave the room, Zeng Zhijian said apologetically: "Manager Liu, I'm really sorry, because of our mistakes in work, there was a small problem with the jadeite's customs clearance procedures, and it will take tomorrow to complete it. Why don't I start today?" Shall I show you around the sights in Yangon?"
"There are interesting attractions in this place?" Liu Lang asked curiously.
"Of course, Yangon has the largest rough jadeite trading market in Myanmar. Countless Chinese people come here to gamble on stones every day!"
"Stone gambling?" Liu Lang seemed to have heard of this word, but he didn't know what it meant.
Zeng Zhijian quickly explained: "Emeralds are all wrapped in stone skins. From the outside, they are no different from ordinary stones. Gambling on stones is to buy rough rough stones at a relatively low price. It is possible to earn thousands of times, of course, it is also possible that nothing can be cut out and nothing can be returned, so there is a saying that there is one knife for poverty and one knife for wealth, one knife for heaven and one knife for hell.”
When it came to the topic of jadeite, Zeng Zhijian immediately began to chatter.
"Okay, then let's go to the rough stone trading market!" Hearing what Zeng Zhijian said, Liu Lang immediately became interested.
This stone gambling sounds similar to catching a lottery ticket. The lucky ring on my ring finger has never been effective. I don’t know if it can break out once this time. Harvesting a batch of thousand-year-old ginseng king, ganoderma lucidum king, etc., will definitely make a lot of money when the time comes.
The rough stone trading market is not far from the hotel, and it takes only ten minutes by car.
As soon as he entered the market, Liu Lang was shocked. The entire trading market was piled full of stones of all kinds, ranging from the size of a fist to the size of a room.
"Are these rough emeralds?" Liu Lang asked.
"They are all rough stones, but it's hard to say whether there are jadeite in them." Zeng Zhijian replied.
"Look, who did I see? Isn't this our famous Young Master Liu in Nanshan?" While Liu Lang and Zeng Zhijian were talking, a group of people walked in front of them.
The leader was a young man in his thirties.
"Dong Xiangxi?"
Liu Lang did not expect to meet an acquaintance in this foreign country.
Dong Xiangxi, the young owner of Dong's Jewelry in Nanshan City.
Dong's Jewelry is the only jewelry company in Nanshan City that can compete with Mu's Jewelry, but the Dong family only operates jewelry business, and the scale of the company is not comparable to that of the Mu's Group, which has a wide range of businesses. Moreover, Dong Xiangxi is six or seven years older than Liu Lang, so he is Characters from previous generations. The two have only met a few times at friends' parties.
"I didn't expect Young Master Liu to still remember me, shouldn't I feel honored?" Dong Xiang put on a flattered look, then changed the topic, "I heard that Young Master Liu and President Mu Xueqing are engaged. It seems that this soft meal is not so delicious, and I have to travel all the way to Myanmar to work for the Mu Group, I really feel wronged by Young Master Liu."
"Forget that this kid is hanging out with Lu Pengfei!" Liu Lang thought he had no grudges with Dong Xiangxi, but hearing Dong Xiangxi's words were thorny, he suddenly remembered that during those few meetings, Dong Xiangxi seemed to be by Lu Pengfei's side.
Lu Pengfei, the eldest son of the Lu family of the four major families in Nanshan, is 31 years old this year, a business prodigy, and became the president of the Lu Group at the age of 23. Ranked first among the Nanshan Four Young Masters of the previous generation, he and Liu Lang had never been able to deal with each other at the beginning. They fought openly and secretly many times, and each had his own outcome.
Since Dong Xiangxi is Lu Pengfei's younger brother, it's normal for him to tear up when he meets him.
Just like Pan Yuncong who was hired by him before, Dong Xiangxi is also a small person in Liu Lang's eyes, the kind who is not worth talking about.
Therefore, Liu Lang chose to ignore it, and squatted down directly to observe the rough jadeite beside him.
"Young Master Liu is here to choose rough stones for Mu's jewelry?" Seeing Liu Lang's actions, Dong Xiangxi's eyes lit up, "It's not so easy to choose rough stones, I advise you to save some money for President Mu!"
Indeed, stone betting is too risky. Even experienced masters are not sure that the bet will increase. The people behind Dong Xiangxi are all experienced stone betting experts, but they have been wandering in this market for two days. , I didn’t buy a few pieces of rough jadeite, mainly because this thing can’t see the inside, so it’s hard to judge. A person who has no experience gambling on stones is just like catching a lottery, it’s all about luck.
"How much is this rough stone?" Liu Lang ignored Dong Xiangxi's sarcasm at all, he picked up a fist-sized stone at his feet, and asked the stall owner next to him.
Although the owner of the stall is Burmese, most of the people who come here to gamble on stones are Chinese, so he can speak a few words of Chinese, and he stammered: "My friend, the one you took is ordinary paving stones. A stone, not a rough emerald!"
As soon as this remark came out, Dong Xiangxi burst out laughing.
