Chapter 250: My Goodness! A Large Piece of Lantian Jade(4)

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Indeed, the jade pieces that had been scattered about were not without reason.

A vast amount of jade had emerged on the surface of this area, which indicated the enormity of the jade deposit.

With a chuckle, Luo Feng instructed everyone to begin digging. Since they were in the Qinling mountain range, the soil rather soft, which made the excavation relatively easy.

After clearing away a swath of soil three to five meters wide, a large piece of jade appeared, It shimmered with a green hue.

“Wow! What a huge piece of jade!”

“Is it a few meters in size?

“Could it be worth hundreds of thousands?”

Seeing this, Luo Feng naturally tapped the jade with his hoe and laughed, “My friends, your host has struck it rich! This is a jade mine!”

“A jade mine? Seriously? Can you really find a jade mine this easily?” “It’s only a five-meter piece of jade, and you’re calling it a jade mine?

Luo Feng did not bother to explain.

The truth will eventually reveal itself.

He walked a few dozen meters further, and once again began digging.

Soon enough, they excavated another piece of jade, measuring about one meter in size. They continued this process more than a dozen times, and in each hole they dug, they found jade pieces connected to the mountain body. The online viewers were left in stunned silence…

It seemed that the host was not deceiving them…

He had truly found a jade mine.

“This area is a Lantian jade mine, one of the four famous jades of China!” “However, the quality can vary from high to low!”

“Clearly, the jade we just dug up is of average quality, and thus, it is not very valuable!”

Luo Feng continued, “So, if we were to mine the whole area, it might only be worth tens of millions.” “Only tens of millions? What do you mean?”

“Is a jade mine this cheap?”

“A jade mine is a massive collection of stones containing jade, but not every stone is jade!”

“Have you seen people gamble on stones? Sometimes, an entire truckload of raw jadeite stones might not yield a single piece of jade.”

“Moreover, the host said the quality is not great, so it’s not worth much!”

“The Qinling mountains do not allow large-scale mechanical mining, otherwise, Luo would have made a fortune!”

“Tens of millions in profits isn’t enough for you people?”

Luo Feng did not continue digging, as it was utterly pointless. After all, he could not carry away much by hand, and large-scale machinery was not allowed…

As they descended the hillside and approached the foot of the mountain, Luo Feng’s eyes were drawn to a deep pit. The pit was roughly twenty meters long and two meters wide, and had an irregular shape. It was also within the area of the jade mine.

Curious, Luo Feng and the others walked over, only to be met with a strong smell of saltpeter.

Had someone used explosives here?

It did not look like official or legal mining had taken place.

Could it be privately mined?

No wonder there were so many jade pieces scattered along the path — they must have fallen during transportation.

Obviously, the irregularly shaped pit had been blasted open by someone, who had buried the explosives in the soil to muffle the sound, preventing nearby villagers from hearing anything suspicious.

Luo Feng instructed Su Meiji contact the Forestry Bureau immediately, which would also give her an opportunity to become familiar with local officials. Su Meiji had many business connections, and they both understood each other’s intentions.

Grateful, Su Meiji looked at Luo Feng. She knew he was interested in her, but she kept her feelings hidden. She was the type of girl who would not engage in any ambiguous relationships unless the other party fully opened their heart. “What? A jade mine? And there’s illegal mining operations going on?”

The Forestry Bureau was speechless.

Luo Feng was truly extraordinary.

He had only been in the mountains for a few days and had already discovered a jade mine.

All along, they had known that there must be jade mines in the mountains, but they never imagined Luo Feng could find one so quickly.

“Director Pan, the jade mine here has been exposed on the surface! And the twenty-meter-deep trench was created by someone using explosives!”

“On the way, we suspect that the jade pieces found by Mr. Luo Feng’s treasure-hunting team were dropped during transportation by the illicit parties!”

Su Meiji reported the findings and analysis to the Forestry Bureau.

“Thank you, Miss Su, and thank you, Mr. Luo. We will investigate this matter!”

After hanging up the phone, Su Meiji exchanged contact information and

WeChat with the other party and also took Luo Feng’s contact information. They would consult the two of them during the subsequent investigation.

“Damn.”

Luo Feng muttered to himself.

He had thought that it was an ancient tomb or something similar.

How anticlimactic.

In any case, Luo Feng was left somewhat speechless by the discovery..
