The Nan'gahe River is a small tributary of the Nanwan River, located in the China-Myanmar border area. The upper reaches of the Nan'gahe River are part of the jadeite mine belt on the Chinese border, which belongs to the Sino-Burmese jadeite mine belt.

  Between Ruili and Myanmar, there is a good mineral belt that produces rubies and green sapphires on the Nanjing River. In the past century, dozens of large and small gemstone mines have been set up here one after another. Due to the scattered distribution of gemstones, high mining costs, and lack of mining value, they have all been abandoned now.

  However, there are still gems here, so the clever Rui Li people thought of a good way - turning the mine into a playground!

  For a fixed fee, you can get the full set of tools and go to the Nanjiang River in this mining area to pan for treasure. Within two hours, all the rubies and sapphires panned up are yours.

  On the banks of the Nanjing River, a treasure trove was built in Ruili, where not only can you dig for treasures, but also get them processed and appraised. The jade products sold here are all genuine goods.

  Liu Zhao explained the rules here to Lin Luo Ran while going to pay the fee.

  For just 50 yuan, anyone can buy a two-hour usage permit for the full set of tools at the Taobao field, and any gems dug up within the two hours can be taken away.

  This place is full of laughter and play, with beautiful jewels everywhere. Seeing the couples holding hands and searching for treasures together, Lin Luo Ran felt a little embarrassed, why did Liu Zheng choose this kind of place?

  It's good, but this is also too easy to be misunderstood.

  "Let's go, we only have two hours, we must make the most of our time." Liu Zhen held a fine-mesh sieve in his hand and smiled at Lin Luo Ran, seeming to have become much younger, no longer like the strict and elegant young master of the Liu family.

  Lin Luoran smiled slightly and threw off some of her restraint, following Liu Zhen into the arena.

  It's already the third day after the stone was solved, and the crowd has dispersed as quickly as they gathered. Liu Zhen's uncle had long since returned with many of the original stones, and also took away the 1 million yuan that Lin Luorant spent to get five remaining original stones from Lao Mian's hands.

  Liu Zha brought her here to fulfill his promise of the day before, that after things were done, he would take her on a good stroll.

  "This, how to use?" The gems and jade stones were completely different. Lin Luo Ran's skill in sensing the aura of jade was useless here. Looking at a pile of tools, for the first time, he didn't know where to start.

  Liu Zhao seemed to have been here before, familiar with the place, taking off his shoes at the water's edge, rolling up his pant legs and stepping into the soft sand, laughing: "The ones on the shore were already taken by others long ago. We need to walk a few more steps to find the gemstones."

  Lin Luoran simply took off his boots and rolled up his pant legs above his knees before wading into the water.

  "It's so cold!" Unexpectedly, the weather in Rui Li was this good, but the river water was bone-chillingly cold. Lin Luo Ran couldn't help but let out a soft cry of surprise.

  Liu Zhao turned his face to one side, restraining himself from looking at Lin Luoran's slender and fair legs, and explained: "In such cold river water, beautiful gems are produced, which is also a wonder of the natural world."

  Lin Luoran's feet were treading on fine sand, the warm sunshine was shining on her body, and her feet were also soaking in the icy water. She held a fine sieve in her hands, imitating Liu Zhi's action to dig into the mud under her feet.

  The two dug for a while in the shallow pool and got nothing. Lin Luo Ran smiled, "Today is not our lucky day to dig up gemstones?"

  Saying that she was about to pour out a scoop of sand that had just been dug up, Liu Zhi's eyes were quick and her hands were swift, pulling out her wrist, "Don't move!"

  A long and powerful male hand suddenly grasped her wrist, and Lin Luo felt the scorching male breath, she stiffened for a moment, a flush of shyness creeping up to the back of her ears.

  Liu Zha grabbed her hand and picked out a long, black stone block from the sand grains in the sieve, which was only slightly larger than a fingernail.

  "Who says there's no luck? Isn't this a blue sapphire?"

  Looking at the irregularly shaped stone in Liu Zhaoying's palm, with its dark appearance, and comparing it to the gems in the Treasure Pavilion that had been polished into multiple facets and shone brightly under the light, Lin Luoran really found it hard to associate the two.

  "Is this... a sapphire?"

  Liu Zhao looked at Lin Luoran with a surprised expression, and laughed: "Just like jade wrapped in its original stone, the gemstone is also like this before it's polished."

  After finishing speaking, he gently placed the stone in Lin Luoran's hand, "It was you who found it, so take good care of it."

  Lin Luoran grasped the gemstone with her hand, and it seemed to still carry Liu Zhi's aura, making her feel somewhat embarrassed. Then, they both suddenly realized that Liu Zhi was holding onto her wrist and hadn't let go...

  "Hehe, look where you're going!" A young couple ran by beside them, the girl splashing water at the boy, who laughed and ran past Lin Luo Ran's side, cold water splashing on his face. Lin Luo Ran instinctively dodged, but didn't realize that his foot had slipped...

  "Ah..." The stone in her palm loosened and was about to slip out, subconsciously, for some unclear reason Lin Luo Ran didn't want to lose it, so she quickly stretched out her hand to retrieve it.

  "Be careful!" Liu Zhen thought she was unstable on her feet and hurriedly went to pull her, but Lin Luoran was actually trying to catch the stone. Being pulled by Liu Zhen like this, she really couldn't stand steady now!

  " Splash!" The two of them fell into the water!

  Liu Zha almost entirely bore the brunt of the impact for Lin Luoran, and even his gold-rimmed glasses were knocked off who-knows-where.

  Lin Luoran wiped away the water droplets on her face and found that her posture with Liu Zhen was really not decent, so she hurriedly tried to get up.

  Liu Zhaoyan suddenly became tense and asked: "Is anything wrong? Did you get hurt?"

  Liu Zhen, not wearing glasses, had eyes as warm and smooth as unpolished jade. Lin Luo Ran was momentarily stunned, only coming back to himself when Liu Zhen asked him repeatedly.

  "I'm fine, I'm fine, what about your glasses?"

  Liu Zha only then discovered that Lin Luoran's face in front of him was blurry, the two of them felt around in the water for a while before finding Liu Zha's glasses, fortunately they hadn't been broken.

  The young lovers who had caused trouble finally came to apologize in a timid manner, and after being forgiven, the two of them held hands and ran far away.

  It was just then that although there was still time, Lin Luoran and Liu Zha's clothes were all wet, the river water was cold, and they couldn't continue searching for treasure, so they had to go ashore ahead of schedule.

  After the two of them changed their clothes, Liu Zong took Lin Luoran to a gemstone processing workshop near the Treasure Pavilion. The master craftsman smiled and congratulated them: "This piece of gemstone is considered good quality in the Treasure Pavilion, young people are lucky, let's make a ring for this lady as a keepsake, what do you two think?"

  Liu Zha thought this proposal was good and turned his head to look at Lin Luoran, asking for her opinion with his eyes.

  The ring, a memento, Lin Luo Ran's heart slightly stirred, then turned into indifference. No matter how good the man in front of her was, he still had Bao Jia's label on him, so it was better not to get involved with him anymore.

  "Let's just make a pendant!"

  Lin Luo Ran's clear and cold voice rang out, extinguishing the warm and tender emotions that flickered in Liu Zhuo's eyes.

  Seeing the book review, someone said that Jin Ping Mei was plagiarized. Abao is speechless... At least I know Wan Qing (although Wan Qing doesn't know me, hehe), the online literature circle is so small, and Abao still wants to continue writing, plagiarism is really not a good reputation...

  This is modern cultivation, and the gambling on stones is just a prelude to the story. Please don't casually put a big hat on me, thank you!

  Meow got it, by the way, asking for a collection ~~~ tears~~~~
