C90 Im going to post it (1/2)
When I saw the cats and girls squatting and playing on the ground, I thought I had misjudged them, but as I walked closer and picked them up, they looked more and more alike. I remember my bald geography teacher in high school saying that Yunnan is one of China's five largest precious stone producers.
Could these stones really be the legendary emeralds? I've only seen emeralds in the exhibition hall when I was visiting museums with my roommates in university in the spring. It's said that the smaller emeralds would cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands if they were of a lower quality. But the better quality emeralds are priceless treasures, and even millions or hundreds of millions wouldn't necessarily be able to buy them.
The cats and girls watched as I took their emeralds, which they were playing with like balls, and looked at me in confusion. To them, these emeralds were no different from ordinary stones. However, I knew that if the cat girl and her mother's emerald was exchanged for cash, it would be enough to be exchanged for hundreds or even thousands of pigs.
I excitedly took the cat girl's emerald. Then, I pointed to the emerald in my hand and asked the cat girl in a trembling voice,
”From where?”
”Meow?”
The cat girl's grey ears twitched, and a hint of confusion appeared in her round eyes. It was unknown if she didn't understand my words or if she really didn't know where these emeralds came from.
Seeing that the cat girl didn't understand my words, I simply held the emerald in one hand and walked out of the cave with the cat girl in the other. The cat girl was half squatting and half walking as I pulled her out of the cave.
”This, stone, where did you find it?” After pulling the cat girl out of the cave, I stared intently at the cat girl's large green eyes. Then I patiently pointed at the emerald in my hand and pointed at the distant mountain, asking her where she had found this rock.
”Meow ~?” ”Meow, meow!”
The cat girl tilted her head and blinked her large eyes, as if she didn't understand what I meant at first, but after I pointed at the mountains in the distance and pointed at a few places with my finger, the cat girl understood what I meant. She knew that I was asking her where Ancestral Mother Green came from.
”Meow!” ”Meow ~!” Understanding what I meant, the cat girl took my hand and ran towards the north side of the waterfall.
The cat girl and I jumped over the narrow river in front of the waterfall, then we ran for a short distance, and finally we ran past a bunch of rocky beaches. Finally, we ran to a mountain wall a few hundred meters away, and the mountain wall was over a hundred meters tall, and it was at a 70 degree angle, making it look very steep. At the bottom of the mountain wall, there was a large, messy rocky field.
And when I looked up at the wall above me, I was completely shocked.
Because I could clearly see that the surface of the mountain wall where the fault was located was actually a large expanse of glossy green rocks, just like a large chunk of emerald embedded in the mountain.
Damn, there are so many natural gems inside this mountain, could it be that this mountain is a gemstone ore?
I was trembling with excitement, of course.
Did I really discover the gemstone ore?
Of course, since I'm not a professional geologist, I don't know if this is a pure gem or not. But from my first glance, I can tell that the surface of the mountain is smooth like jade.
Damn, if these were all gems, then how much would this mountain of gems be worth?
Damn, this whole mountain should be worth at least several hundred million, maybe even billions, right? Furthermore, who could guarantee that there were no gemstone ore in the other mountains nearby? If the other mountains also had gems, then this entire region would be a great gemstone ore. That would mean this place would be a city of gems, with a value of at least hundreds of billions or even hundreds of billions of gems.
At that time, I was so excited that I almost cried out. Although the era was different, the surprise of finding the treasure was the same no matter what era it was.
