Chapter 1000: Under the DPRK Gem Mine, There Is Expectation
Li Yang took Wang Tianhua, the four brothers of the Huang family, and two hundred Anjin masters from Daqingshan by plane to Liao Province, and later entered the DPRK directly through the trade zone.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon when we arrived at the border with North Korea. The North Korean side also arranged for someone to come over. It was Zhang Zhengyang, the special commissioner who had been to Liao Province.
"Mr. Li, welcome to the court." Zhang Zhengyang said enthusiastically.
"Thank you for your hard work." Li Yang nodded and smiled.
"I will take you to Gemstone Mountain right now. Hey, this is strange to say. I contacted you urgently in the hope of clearing up the misunderstanding." Zhang Zhengyang said with a wry smile. After all, Gemstone Mountain was the prerequisite for the cooperation between the two parties. Now gems have begun to appear in large quantities.
If Daqingshan thinks that Chaoguo deliberately hid it, then the misunderstanding will be huge.
"I have never doubted the state of Chao." Li Yang said with a smile.
"Thank you, Mr. Li, for your understanding." Zhang Zhengyang thanked him. Later, a dozen buses stopped at the intersection, followed by a group of military vehicles, filled with soldiers.
There were also helicopters circling overhead.
In order to receive Li Yang, the North Korean side also held discussions. Although Li Yang was not an official, Daqingshan's international influence was not weaker than that of the leaders of any country. What's more, Daqingshan was the main body of the transactions between the two countries.
In terms of political influence and interests, Zhang Zhengyang was sent here and he even brought military escorts.
Waiting for everyone to get in the car and drive towards Gemstone Mountain.
After about two hours, we arrived at a junction into the mountains. The car could no longer move forward. The scenery here was also superb. Most areas of Chaoguo remained the same as they were decades ago, without much change at all.
After walking for about an hour, we arrived at a mountain. There were many simple houses built there, and we saw people walking around, but the mines were already guarded.
"Ever since we discovered that the gem mines were inexplicably declining, we began to seal the cave entrance and wait for Mr. Li to come." Zhang Zhengyang introduced.
"Go and have a look." Li Yang nodded. Although he was not close to the Gemstone Mountain, it was obvious that the vitality of heaven and earth was much richer here. In addition, it was located deep in the mountains, so the air was purer.
Soon they arrived near Baoshi Mountain, and the Daqingshan people who were stationed here together with the Chao people hurriedly greeted them.
"Doctor Li, you are here." A dark-faced middle-aged man in his forties named Liu Hai led a group of Daqingshan people and said respectfully in unison.
"Brother Liu, you've worked hard here. When it's time to switch shifts with the country, we'll give the folks back home a chance to come and experience nature." Li Yang said with a smile.
"Yes, yes." Liu Hai smiled honestly, knowing that Li Yang was afraid that people like him would work too hard.
"When did the situation here happen?" Li Yang asked.
"I started to notice something wrong yesterday morning. After I discovered it, I quickly arranged for someone to report it and sealed the entire entrance of the cave." Liu Hai said seriously immediately.
"Okay, you did the right thing. Let's go and have a look together." Li Yang said.
"Mr. Li, this place is very deep and has many twists and turns. Most of the road needs to be walked, which takes more than two hours. It's almost seven o'clock in the evening and it's getting dark. It's better to go tomorrow." Liu Hai said with concern.
"No problem!" Li Yang waved his hand.
"Yes!" Liu Hai nodded immediately, and then called over dozens of young men from Daqingshan, each holding a miner's lamp, to open the way ahead and use machinery to push away the boulder blocking the entrance of the cave.
Huhuhu
Suddenly there was a gust of wind with a whistling sound coming from inside the cave, mixed with some gravel chips, which hurt my face. The most important thing is that it was already dark here, and it was even darker when I looked at the entrance of the cave.
After all, it's like the gaping mouth of a terrifying giant beast.
Zhang Zhengyang's face suddenly changed, looking a little ugly.
The soldiers following him instinctively raised their guns and stood ready, as if they were afraid that something terrible would suddenly emerge from inside.
"It's okay, there is a vent inside, just get used to it." Liu Hai hurriedly explained, and the person in charge of Chaoguo on the side also hurriedly explained in Chaoguo language.
Zhang Zhengyang's expression softened slightly and he waved his hand to ask the soldier to put down his gun.
"Let's go." Li Yang nodded and walked forward.
"Lead the way." Liu Hai walked in front of Li Yang first, and even ordered the Daqingshan people stationed here to hold mining lamps and walk ahead first.
"I'll go too." Zhang Zhengyang hesitated slightly and hurriedly followed.
"Okay." Li Yang nodded, and then glanced at the hundreds of Korean soldiers behind him.
"With Mr. Li here, the soldiers don't have to go." Zhang Zhengyang immediately understood what he meant, but still ordered the soldiers to hand over some weapons, handed them to the two hundred dark power masters who came with Li Yang, and explained: "At the critical moment
It's better to fire a few shots than to have people run over and watch."
Li Yang nodded.
Only two hundred Anjin masters took over the gun.
Later, Zhang Zhengyang just brought a few North Korean worker leaders stationed here to go to the mine together.
Soon the group of people walked towards the cave. The entire cave had obviously undergone a large amount of excavation. It was very deep and spread out, as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out. The further they walked, the lower they went, and it was dark inside.
Painted, even the air temperature dropped by more than ten degrees.
The miner's lamp hit the stone wall, giving off a watery feeling. As I walked, it flickered on and off, which was still extremely scary.
Zhang Zhengyang followed closely behind Li Yang, not daring to slow down, but after walking for more than an hour, he was still quite tired.
About two hours later, after rounding a corner, the vision suddenly opened up, and I saw that inside was a huge cave with an area of tens of thousands square meters.
The stone inside is obviously different from the color of the stone wall just now. It has a dark blue feeling, and it is somewhat transparent if you look closely. It is inlaid on the stone wall one by one, as if the entire cave is made of such stones.
"The area is large enough." Li Yang glanced around.
"The reserves are still very scary. Dr. Li, we are now at the bottom of the entire mountain. According to our original estimates, this gem mine should be the largest in the country." Liu Hai said, and then explained: "I never thought it was so big before.
In the end, I dug deeper and deeper and discovered something was wrong. It used to be just a corner here, but now is the real whole picture."
"Not necessarily." Li Yang chuckled.
"What does Dr. Li mean?" Liu Hai looked happy.
"It's possible." Li Yang nodded, and then asked: "How did you discover that the gem mine showed signs of disappearing."
"I dug some more before and piled them on one side. I didn't pay much attention to them at first. I paid special attention to them and took a photo with my phone every time. After a final comparison, I realized that they were different. Then I personally arranged for people to dig more
I piled some up, and after repeated comparisons, I finally confirmed that they were disappearing." Liu Hai took out his mobile phone, and the signal was gone, but it did not affect viewing the photos.
Li Yang took a look at the before-and-after photos. It was very subtle. The missing area was no more than one thousandth of the total, but it was still discovered by Liu Hai. It was obvious that Liu Hai was a careful person.
"It couldn't have been stolen, right?" Zhang Zhengyang didn't see the difference between the two photos.
Liu Hai didn't say anything. There was no evidence, so saying it would have a bad impact. However, he didn't feel like it was stolen, so when he passed the news on, he just said that he had disappeared.
"It has nothing to do with salary." Li Yang said solemnly.
"That's good." Zhang Zhengyang breathed a sigh of relief. It would be good if there were no man-made things. Then he said curiously: "The temperature here is very low and there are no animals. So why are there so few? It's really strange. In the past,
Have you ever discovered anything like this?”
"No!" Liu Hai affirmed.
Several North Korean worker leaders stationed here who followed the mine also said no.
"It should have something to do with the climate, but the reduction is not too big, so it's not harmful." Li Yang gave an explanation casually.
"It's possible." Zhang Zhengyang nodded, as long as it didn't cause misunderstanding between the two countries. Later he hesitated and asked: "Did Mr. Li go up?"
"Let's go!" Li Yang nodded, and finally took a deep look at the air flowing in the tens of thousands of square meters of space in the cave.
Later they returned to the ground together.
Zhang Zhengyang wanted to invite Li Yang to go to the capital of the DPRK with him.
"I won't go. I will stay here for two days and then leave." Li Yang shook his head and said.
"The accommodation and catering here are still lacking." Zhang Zhengyang was a little embarrassed.
"The folks from Daqingshan have been staying here. As long as they can stay, I can stay." Li Yang chuckled and said later: "Commissioner Zhang, don't be embarrassed. Say hello to Chief Jin for me. He is coming to the DPRK this time."
, I also plan to experience the natural scenery of North Korea, so I won’t go to the city.”
"Okay then!" Zhang Zhengyang nodded and took the people away first.
Li Yang glanced at Wang Tianhua, who understood and immediately arranged for Daqingshan Anjin masters to block the entrance of the cave.
