Because the mining area is inside the mountain, the wind from the outside can hardly blow in.

Although the temperature is lower than that in Hotan, because there is no wind, it feels more comfortable here than in Hotan.

At noon, Wang Jian rode a horse and brought a few local miners back from the mountain. Each horse had some animals hanging on corpses, including argas, antelope, snow chicken, hare, etc.

Except for hares, the rest of these animals are animals protected by national laws. However, here, local hunters are even legal to carry guns, let alone hunt some wild animals.

Another identity of these miners is farmers and hunters. As long as they do not kill wild animals indiscriminately, it is not illegal. Besides, this is a deep mountain forest, and the people do not procurate the officials, and they have hunted some protective animals. Who knows?

Here, those wild animals have only one identity, that is their prey!

Of course, the corpses of these prey were not seen by Princess. Yang Jing and Liu Zhentao were accompanying her to watch how the miners mine Hetian jade.

This is also one of the main purposes of Liu Zhentao's trip to Hotan. He needs to understand the reserves of this jade ore, and also see with his own eyes the quality of the Hetian jade produced in this jade ore.

As a result, both aspects made Liu Zhentao very satisfied.

As for the princess, she has never seen how the beautiful Hetian jade was mined, so she also needs to add some knowledge. At least she has to know how the Hetian jade jewelry she wears is from?

When the sun shone, Wang Jian blew a trumpet to greet the three of them for dinner. In the mining area, although the miners were wearing radio intercoms, the residents here were still accustomed to using some very ancient communication methods to notify each other, such as blowing the trumpet is one of the ways.

Yang Jing and the other two were a little puzzled at first, how could the sound of horns appear on the battlefield? As a result, the miners were all happy. A big and thick man smiled and said in not very fluent Mandarin: "The mine manager is asking you to go down for lunch. And the lunch should be a more sumptuous type, with wild game..."

So, when Yang Jing and the other two came down from the mining site, they had a hearty meal of barbecue and stew.

I have to say that the skills of ethnic minorities in the Kraft region in barbecue are really nothing. As for stewing meat, let’s forget it.

In front of the big foodies nations of the big foodies empire, the stewed meat of any nation in the world is probably not as good as the stewed meat of the big foodies nation.

So, Yang Jing and the other three had the bodyguards and two secretaries, and they were more targeting the barbecue. This was the wild game from Kunlun Mountain. Even native Americans like Clark and others had never eaten this kind of meat. So these guys naturally ate it and shouted "Wairigoude"...

"Xiao Jing, are you planning to mine this jade mine on a large scale?" While having dinner, Liu Zhentao asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

"Uncle-in-law, it depends on the situation." Yang Jing thought for a while and said, "You have just seen the quality of Hetian jade produced in this jade ore. Although it is mountain material, the jade quality is very good. The miners and masters also said that sometimes they can mine mountain materials with excellent jade quality. This mountain materials with excellent jade quality can even reach the 1a or even 2a collection level, which is amazing."

Liu Zhentao also nodded. The reason why Hetian jade is precious is not because of the small reserves of Hetian jade. On the contrary, in the entire Kunlun Mountains, Hetian jade has a very rich reserves, and the reserves of millions of tons are the lowest standard.

It is just because the mining of Hetian jade is too difficult, so people can only look at the mountains and sigh. This has caused the value of Hetian jade to continue to rise over the years - things are rare and precious.

The quality of jade in this jade ore is really rare. To put it really is, if the mountain materials mined here are placed in the Yulong Kashgar River for thousands of years, the seed jade produced is definitely the top-notch jade!

Even if the mountain material has not been washed by running water, the jade quality inside is not comparable to that of the Hetian jades on the market.

If large-scale mining is really carried out, so many high-quality Hetian jades suddenly flow to the market, it will inevitably lead to a plummeting price of Hetian jades, which is something that jewelry merchants like Liu Zhentao and others are absolutely unwilling to see.

Similarly, if this jade ore of such high quality is not mined on a large scale, it would be a waste of resources.

Looking at Liu Zhentao's tangled look, Yang Jing knew that he obviously understood the key point, so Yang Jing smiled and explained: "Uncleman, when we go back, I will meet with the Hotan government to discuss the continued renewal of the contract for this jade mine. Although this jade mine is of high quality, its previous mining scale is very small, and all the jade mined is used in our own jade carving factory. The jade flowing to the market is almost invisible, so the outside world is very unaware of the situation of our jade mine."

After Yang Jing said this, Liu Zhentao immediately understood what it meant. "Xiao Jing, what do you mean is that while the outside world doesn't know the situation of this jade mine, then continue to renew the contract with the government to increase the mining time of this jade mine?"

"That's right. If we can really sign a new contract with the government, then we can appropriately increase the mining volume. By then, your love will be the main sales channel for life. Of course, if the luxury brands under Feiyang International need to use high-quality Hetian jade, I will also provide them. But you don't have to worry, the sales targets of those luxury brands are mainly Southeast Asia, foreigners or foreign Chinese, which will not have any impact on the domestic market."

Hearing this, Liu Zhentao was immediately relieved and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

In fact, for Yang Jing, this jade ore was formed by an idea that suddenly emerged from him. He got two jadeite yards from Myanmar, and later he suddenly realized that he had a jadeite yard, but it was not as good as the Hetian jade mine, which was the leader of the Chinese jade. So Yang Jing, who turned into Cole Smith, traveled to the Xinjiang region and finally obtained the contract rights of the jade mine for 70 years.

Although this jade ore is of great value, it is nothing to Yang Jing. If it weren't for Liu Zhentao's sake, he wouldn't have come here all the way. It would be so comfortable to stay at home in this weather.

But since we are here, let’s take a good look at the industry here. At least the contract rights of this mine need to be extended. Isn’t it just investment money, and things that can be solved with money are not a problem.

After a meal of wild game, Yang Jing and his group stayed in the mining area for about two hours before they took a bus back to Hotan.

The next day, Yang Jing asked the secretary to contact relevant officials of the Hotan Regional Administration and booked a meeting with the Hotan Regional Administration Commissioner the morning after tomorrow. Then he summoned Wang Jian and the others to discuss renovating the mine roads and increasing the mining area output.

In fact, whether it is renovating the 64-kilometer-long mining road, increasing the mining output, or even increasing the mining years of the contracted mining area, there is actually only one core content, that is money.

Renovating that mining area highway does not require large-scale road foundations, so the money for renovating the road is not too much. In addition, it is now mechanized construction, and the renovation speed will definitely be very fast, so this matter is implemented as soon as possible. As long as Yang Jing signs and approves the funds, this work can be carried out at any time.

As for increasing the output of mining areas, it would be even better to say that renovating highways also involves a lot of external connections, but as long as the equipment is available, the remaining job is to recruit more miners, which is very simple.

As for negotiating with the local government to increase the contracting period for jade mines, this is somewhat troublesome. If Yang Jing brought a group of secretaries directly to negotiate, he would probably have been slaughtered.

Now the Hetian Jade Mine is a very intimate thing. Generally, ordinary people can’t find any way to mine the right, even if you have money, you may not find a way. If you don’t have local people leading the way, it will be really hard to do. It’s not the time thirty years ago. At that time, the rich, especially the green Franklin, could do almost anything, but now it’s different.

There is no secret that Yang Jing’s identity is at the top, but for these grassroots officials, they don’t care who you are. If you want to extend the contracting period of jade mine, there is no problem, but you must come up with something that will make the local government excited.

It is very certain that if Yang Jing had just negotiated so rashly, as a foreigner and a very rich foreigner, he would have been slaughtered hard. It would be fine if he didn't want to be slaughtered. You can't mention the contract period, but we are still our nephews' lanterns as usual. But since you want to negotiate a new contract, it's different.

From the perspective of the government, it is understandable that people do this. Mineral resources belong to the country, and they are such precious mineral resources as Hetian jade. Of course, the government departments have to sell a high enough price. If it is less, are you worthy of those Hetian jade?

Fortunately, Yang Jing has a local snake who has lived in Hotan for more than 20 years. Wang Jian is not a big deal in the Evil Dragon Fund, but he is a corner in Hotan. Not to mention anything else, at least he has had a very good relationship with local government officials over the years. I dare not say that when I pushed the door in front of the Office of the Commissioner of the Administration, just open the door in front of the Office, but if he proposed to negotiate some things with the Commissioner of the Administration, the Commissioner of the Administration would also have to take time to meet Wang Jian.
