Chapter 615: Finding Clues
Leaving the hotel and getting into the car, Ye Fan directly pointed out the road, and Bai Hongde realized that just now at the hotel window, Ye Fan's eyes had locked on the largest gambling stone market in Yangon.
In fact, the Vienna Hotel is located a few kilometres from the Gambling Stone Market, and it is difficult for the average human eye to see what the grand shack complex is.
Raphael's choice of this room, in Ye Fan's opinion, was by no means arbitrary, as long as an ordinary telescope, the scene in the gambling stone market could be monitored by him.
Other than that, there were no more dazzling landmarks near the hotel, and out of intuition and analysis, he had a vague feeling that the big market must have something to do with Raphael's arrival.
Myanmar's jade mining industry is indeed on a large scale, with 100 million tons of rough imported and exported from the three major markets of Yangon, Mandalay and Hpakant every year, and the gambling stone industry here has long been famous in Asia and has become one of the main economic pillars of the country.
Behind the huge archway, there are gambling stone shops built on the street, most of them are century-old brands, high-grade, large-scale, and financially abundant, just look at this face, it is far more than the original net worth of the Jade King Ji Hongqu several times.
For example, the Ji family's store in Xinghai is only a small agent at best, and here is the wholesale place of the manufacturer and the origin of jade.
"Mr. Ye, look ......" Bai Hongde stopped the car and cast a questioning look at Ye Fan, not understanding what he was looking for here.
"Just take a walk. Ye Fan pushed the car door and pulled Pojun out of the car.
Wu Tingdong frowned, and got out of the car without making a sound, he could feel that this Chinese man was extraordinary, judging from the information in his hands, this person was inferior to the Seven Angels of the Hand of God.
People like them are marked as "extremely dangerous" and "top secret" in the archives of various countries, and they try to turn enemies into friends and avoid provoking, and if they can get some friendship, it is even more happiness.
Looking in the direction of the Vienna Hotel from the Gambling Stone Market, you can just see the glass window around the corner.
Turning around, Ye Fan's eyes searched for something in the bustling crowd.
Mountains of jade blanks, bargaining gamblers from all over the world, the cacophony of calcite, stone dust floating in the air...... It forms a lively scenery of Yangon's jade distribution center.
Judging from all indications, Raphael definitely has a purpose, what is the purpose of his coming to this place?
"Bai Lao!" A greeting sounded in the distance, Bai Hongde hurriedly turned his head to look, his face immediately showed joy, and he met this acquaintance.
"Haha, it turned out to be Tan Yujiang. Bai Hongde strode forward, patted his shoulder and laughed: "Come on, come on, I'll introduce you to a few friends." ”
"How can Bai Lao have time to come to Yangon? How many hands are you going to play this time?" This man who is over sixty years old is dressed in white, with dignified facial features, very elegant, and at first glance he has a bit of a martial artist's demeanor. On the lawn of domestic parks, you can often meet people dressed like him, one move and one style, posing for Tai Chi boxing, quite fairy.
Of course, Tan Fangzhen is not a martial arts enthusiast, he dresses like this, he is adhering to the tradition of his ancestors, his profession is a craftsman in the jade industry, he is good at meticulous work, and he has cultivated this unique temperament under the dye of jade for a long time.
"Not this time, I don't have time to play, Tan Yujiang, this is Colonel Wu. Bai Hongde first introduced Wu Tingdong to him, and then pulled this acquaintance to Ye Fan.
"Mr. Ye, this is Tan Fangzhen in Yangon Market, I have a deep friendship, and I don't have to pick the handicrafts, and there are works of Tan Yujiang in many Buddhist monasteries in Myanmar. ”
There is a line of experts in each row, Ye Fan smiled and Tan Fangzhen nodded.
Just as his gaze turned away, Tan Fangzhen's words made Ye Fan's eyes shine! Not only him, but Bai Hongde and Wu Tingdong also showed suspicion.
"Huh, isn't this Miss Ye?"
Po Jun looked at him in surprise when he heard this, with a wary and unfamiliar expression.
"Who are you?"
"Miss Ye, don't you remember ......?" Tan Fangzhen seemed to see some signs in the middle of his words, and looked at Ye Fan and Bai Hongde again.
"Tan Yujiang, take a step to speak. Bai Hongde's expression tightened, and he glanced at him again and again.
This old man Tan is also a human spirit, and he hurriedly said: "Oh, a few please, please come to my store to talk about it." ”
Everyone moved to Tan Yuxuan, this jade shop is very grand and neat, and the glass counter displays some fine jade, jadeite, white jade, black jade, topaz...... Each one is worth 10,000 gold!
In Yangon, Tan Fangzhen's collection here is absolutely second to none, and he sells high-end finished products, and the objects displayed in every corner are of extraordinary taste.
Tan Fangzhen invited the guests to the back hall, closed the hall door, and planned to make tea for the guests himself.
"Shopkeeper Tan, don't be busy yet. Related to the series of mysteries related to this trip, Ye Fan couldn't hold back the doubts in his heart, pointed to Pojun and said, "Have you seen her?"
"This ......" Tan Fangzhen hesitated again, lest he say something wrong and hurt others.
"But it's okay to say, Tan Yujiang, Mr. Ye is not a bad person, we are here to investigate one thing. Bai Hongde dispelled his doubts in time.
"Okay!" Tan Fangzhen clasped his hands and glanced at Po Jun again, looking a little incredulous: "Miss Ye, you really don't know me anymore?"
"Her brain hurts, and she can't think of some things, Shopkeeper Tan, say you!" Ye Fan's tone was obviously unhappy and impatient, Tan Fangzhen looked at him and swallowed his saliva, and slowly said what happened a few days ago.
"Ten days ago, Miss Ye, you came here and spent a lot of money to buy a sapphire. ”
All eyes are on Po Jun, what is she here to buy sapphires?
"In your shop?" Ye Fan didn't expect that he would really find out the information about the broken army in this place.
"Yes, it's a special sapphire, and no one has been paying attention to it. Tan Fangzhen showed a look of reminiscence, "That evening, Miss Ye came here and chose it as soon as she entered the store. ”
"Oh, by the way, I have an archive here. Tan Fangzhen patted his head, waved his hand and said, "Wait a minute." ”
Within two minutes, he grabbed a picture album, opened the title page, and pointed out the picture to everyone present.
Seeing this picture, Ye Fan's eyes changed dramatically!
In an instant, his eyes were warm, all kinds of emotions hit his heart, and a thousand words were in his throat, and he couldn't speak.
Finally, he understood why the broken army was here!
Because, it's not an ordinary sapphire, it's an extreme ice!
Got it, finally got it!
She must have heard that Tan Yujiang has a rich collection here, so she specially passed by here to dig for this extreme ice. In Myanmar, where jade is everywhere, this fingernail-sized polar ice is not surprising in the eyes of speculators, but it is the treasure of cultivators.
At Sotheby's auction, Po Jun knew the importance of Extreme Ice to cultivators, and in order to express her heart, she, like thousands of young girls, wanted to give him a small gift as a surprise.
But she didn't know that a pair of eyes had already been eyed at her itinerary, and there were many murderous ambushes!
