That night, Ding Ning lay comfortably in Murong Yanran's arms and had a good sleep.
But when they were going to take the plane in the morning, Murong Yanran was worried again. Ding Ning didn't even have a household register, so he couldn't take the plane!
Later, she had to use her family's resources that she had never been willing to use, and she used her privilege to take Ding Ning on the plane.
"President Mu, who is this child?"
Mo Bai was shocked when he saw Ding Ning, because he looked so much like Ding Ning, as if they were made from the same mold.
"This is Ding Ning's son!"
Murong Yanran was afraid that Ding Ning would hear her, so she whispered in Mo Bai's ear, "This child doesn't know who his father is, so don't leak it in front of him."
"I understand, I understand!"
Mo Bai nodded repeatedly, but when he turned around, his face became strange.
He instantly worshipped Ding Ning. He didn't expect his young master to be so awesome, and he thought they were still in a relationship. He didn't expect that Ding Ning had already gotten the Miss of the Murong Family, and even the child had grown up.
If Murong Yanran knew what he was thinking, she would kick him off the plane.
The public jade bid was a grand event of raw jade trading, and it was a unique and fair way of auction. Myan had a strict management of jade resources, and only through the public jade bid could trade out of the country, while others would be regarded as smuggling.
Naypyitaw, the capital of Myan, was located in the narrow and long area of the Xitang River Valley between the Bogu Mountains and the Bunnong Mountains, with mountains in the north and plains in the south. It was strategically important, and it was also the site of the public jade bid.
The three got off the plane, took a car to the hotel they had booked, put down their luggage, and hurried to the site of the public jade bid.
Looking at the low buildings and messy high-voltage electric poles along the way, Ding Ning felt like he had traveled back to the 1990s in Shenzhou.
"Myan's economy is still very backward, and it hasn't really developed yet. Naypyitaw is much worse than Yangon!"
Mo Bai said with a nostalgic expression. It turned out that the Demon Cult was located at the border between Shenzhou and Myan, and he often came to Myan, so he was very familiar with this place!
"Myan has been in civil war for years, and drug trafficking, smuggling, and guns are rampant. The government is corrupt, so it's impossible for it to develop economically."
Murong Yanran said with pity, "It's a pity that there are so many raw stone mines. If these raw stone mines were all in Shenzhou, it would absolutely be irreplaceable for our country's economic development. Now that they are in the hands of the Myan government, they are just a money-making tool for them to fill their pockets."
"There's nothing we can do about it. In Myanmar, there are a lot of anti-government forces, and whoever has the money and the guns is the boss. Of course, there are also historical reasons for this. There are a lot of ethnic minorities in Myanmar, and each ethnic group has its own armed forces. Some of them even formed their own independent governments. In addition, Myanmar is a mountainous country, and the terrain is very complicated. It's impossible for the government to wipe out an anti-government force. If they can't defeat the government, they will hide in the forest and fight with the government. No one can do anything to them. That's why the Myanmar government still hasn't been able to wipe out these armed forces. In addition, some western countries have been stirring up trouble in the dark, making the Myanmar government unable to unify the country. The biggest problem for the Myanmar government is that these anti-government forces not only fight among themselves, but they also work together to fight against the government, making the government unable to do anything about it."
Mo Bai seemed to know the situation in Myan very well, and he said with assurance, "This is a country with many warlords, and it's not easy for the Myan government to maintain the current situation."
"I heard that there are crooks and honest people mixed here, and the government is only the organizer on the surface, but in fact, it's controlled by many underground forces, isn't it?"
Murong Yanran had also read some information before coming here, so she asked curiously.
"Yes, where there are interests, there will always be disputes, and where there is light, there will be darkness. Myan is a very strange country. Most of the senior officials of the government don't think about how to make a good life for their people, but how to make a fortune when they have power. Therefore, there are many factions fighting among the senior officials of the government, and they even secretly cultivate and recruit some outlaws to form evil forces to control the raw stone mines and fight for the biggest interests for themselves."
A weird smile appeared on Mo Bai's face. "The reason why there are crooks and honest people mixed here, and the mines are controlled by many big forces, is that the senior officials of the government indulge in it, or else, how could there be the soil of the underworld forces? They're fighting each other without any order at all. The government forces are also turning a blind eye to it, allowing them to fight. In fact, it's just a secret game between the higher-ups. Whoever has the bigger fist will be able to control more mines. "
"Ah, if we buy raw stones or jadeite, can we leave safely?"
Murong Yanran had heard that there was a mess here, but she didn't expect it to be so messy, and her beautiful eyes flashed with deep worry.
"Boss Mu, don't worry about it. It's just a normal mess. No matter how lawless these underground forces are, they won't dare to act recklessly during the public auction. After all, the public auction of jadeite is held by the Myan government every year to make money, and the military expenditure of the next year depends on this public auction. No matter how greedy those senior officials of the government are, they dare not make trouble at this time. If they lose their identity as the senior officials of the government, how can they make money? Besides, most of those who participate in the public auction are jewel merchants and rich and powerful children from rich and powerful families from all over the world. If they make trouble, who will participate in the public auction in the future? The Myan government will never allow such a thing to happen. "
Mo Bai knew what Murong Yanran was worried about, so he hurried to explain, and Murong Yanran was a little relieved.
However, what Mo Bai didn't tell her was that some underground forces also looked at people. If some powerless people revealed their wealth, it would arouse their greed. Although they wouldn't go as far as robbing and killing people, it wasn't impossible for them to do it secretly.
But considering that Murong Yanran was the First Miss of the Murong Family, and with the golden name of the Murong Family, few people dared to do anything to her, Mo Bai didn't say much.
As they talked, they soon arrived at the place where the public auction was held. A huge valley was surrounded by a simple fence, and the government army with guns and live ammunition patrolled back and forth to maintain the public auction's security.
Ding Ning was very considerate and didn't let Murong Yanran hold him. Instead, he let her hold his hand and walked inside with his short legs.
After entering the fence, there were raw stones placed by vendors along the way. These people were all vendors who relied on raw stones to make a living. The raw stones they sold were both real and fake, and the prices were relatively cheaper, attracting many people to linger and forget to leave.
Stone gambling was a game of gambling. It all depended on one's eyesight. If anyone bought a fake raw stone, they could only blame it on their bad luck. If anyone was not convinced and wanted to cause trouble, then sorry, the armed government troops were not to be trifled with.
Ding Ning looked at these raw stones with great interest, and his eyes sparkled with bright golden light. He couldn't wait to show off his skills immediately. "These are all money!"
But it was a pity that he was only a five-year-old child now. Not to mention that no one would do business with him, Murong Yanran was worried that he would get lost, so she held his hand tightly all the way and didn't let him go, which made him useless.
Passing through the raw stone vendors in the periphery, they came to the middle of the valley. Facing them was a huge square, where raw stones of different sizes were placed, and there were numbers on them. Many customers were choosing raw stones, and there were uniformed staff shuttling back and forth, responsible for recording the numbers of the raw stones selected by the customers.
"This is the peripheral selling area during the public auction. The raw stones here are basically real, unlike those vendors outside who sell half of the real and half of the fake ones. You can buy and sell them at will, and you can also cut them on the spot."
It seemed that it was not the first time for Mo Bai to participate in the public jade bid. He introduced as he walked, "If you go further inside, the palace-like house is the place where the public auction will be held. The raw stones there can be full or half gambling materials, but you can't buy and sell them privately, and they have to be auctioned. It's still early now, and the auction will start at two o 'clock in the afternoon every day."
"Then let's buy the raw stones here, and when the auction starts, we can go in and have a look!"
Murong Yanran said excitedly. As a jeweler, she had long been eager to have a try when she saw these raw stones.
"Well, OK, let's start! Do you want to cut the stones on the spot, or buy the raw stones directly? They are responsible for delivering the stones to your door. Of course, they are only responsible for delivering the stones to the place you specify, and it is impossible to send them back to our country! "
Mo Bai explained again. These days, he had been eating and drinking for free with Murong Yanran, and he couldn't wait to show his skills.
"I know this, and I have asked the staff of the company to rent the warehouse in advance. We don't need to care about the transportation, and we only need to be responsible for selecting the raw stones. Master Mo, please do this, and you don't need to cut the stones on the spot. I trust you."
Although Murong Yanran knew a little about stone gambling, she knew her own ability, and it was better to leave the selection of raw stones to the professionals.
"Don't worry, President Mu. Since Young Master asked me to follow you, I will not let you and Young Master down."
Mo Bai made a solemn pledge. With the Stone Louse Gu, which was a powerful cheating tool, he could not guarantee that he would get a good result, but he was sure that every raw stone he chose would have jade in it.
"Sister Yanran, why did you come so late? Didn't you say that you would arrive yesterday?"
Mo Bai was concentrating on selecting raw stones, but Ding Ning was stunned to see a man and three women coming towards him, and he was instantly confused. When did Shen Muqing and Murong Yanran get along so well? What made him most confused was that Shen Muqing did not do the jewelry business, so why did she come to participate in the public jade bid?
"Muqing, I am sorry. Something happened yesterday, so I didn't have time to come here. I flew here early this morning, and I was about to call you later and have lunch together."
Murong Yanran held Shen Muqing's hand enthusiastically and nodded to Tang Rui and Liu Yingying beside her. As for the expressionless man, she directly ignored him, because she knew that he was Shen Muqing's bodyguard.
"Hey, whose child is this? Wow, he is so cute! "
Out of the corner of her eye, Shen Muqing saw that Ding Ning was staring at her with wide eyes. She squatted down with a smile and pinched his pink little face. Her eyes were shining, and she did not hide her love for Ding Ning at all!
"Who do you think he looks like?"
Murong Yanran pursed her lips and smiled, keeping him guessing.
"Who does he look like? Hey, why does he look like Ding Ning? Is he Ding Ning … "
Shen Muqing's face suddenly changed, and her smile gradually faded.
"Well, his name is Ding Xiaoning!"
Murong Yanran did not say it clearly, but she still noticed the change of Shen Muqing's face. She sighed secretly, "Ding Ning, Ding Ning, how many girls do you want to provoke?"
"Ding Xiaoning? His mother is … "
Shen Muqing's eyes were a little dim, and she bit her lips and forced a smile.
