Chapter 808: Diamond Ring

After dealing with the affairs in Shenzhen, Duan Yun did not leave immediately, but went to Zhongying Street in Shenzhen again.

Duan Yun went to Zhongying Street this time, mainly to buy something special.

The last time Duan Yun went to Center Street, the most popular things sold here were all kinds of fabrics, and this time after Duan Yun went to Zhongying Street, he found that there were more gold shops of all kinds, and the business was very hot.

Zhongying Street can reflect the current shortage of certain domestic commodities in one aspect, just like the previous hot sale of various fabrics, that is because of the shortage of domestic fabrics, which can only be purchased with vouchers, while on the side of Central Street, as long as there is money, you can buy a large number of them, so the sales of fabrics in Zhongying Street are very high for a period of time.

But now, Zhongying Street began to popular "gold fever", the current domestic control of gold is very strict, the sale of gold and silver jewelry must have relevant procedures, so there are basically few gold stores in China, there are also in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, the price is still very high, and in Zhongying Street is cheaper.

With the rapid recovery of the consumption power of ordinary people in China, the children of wealthy families get married, in addition to the traditional three major pieces, they must also prepare gold and silver jewelry for the woman, so the current domestic gold and silver prices continue to rise, which also makes many people in China start a gold and silver jewelry business.

Duan Yun plans to find an opportunity to propose to Cheng Qingyan after going back this time, the two have been in love for two years, and it is time for it to blossom and bear fruit, so Duan Yun plans to buy some gold and silver jewelry from Zhongying Street this time and give it to Cheng Qingyan back.

Compared with the platinum diamond rings that people wore when they got married in the previous life, in this era, the domestic people only recognize gold jewelry, which is the so-called "wearing gold to show wealth", after all, gold is a non-ferrous metal, which is easier to identify, and platinum is similar in color to silver and other metals, as for the diamond above, in the eyes of many people, it is glass.

At that time, precious jewelry was still mainly gold and silver, platinum metal was used as an industrial raw material, and it was mainly used in laboratories for aerospace precious metal materials.

But even so, Duan Yun still planned to give Cheng Qingyan a platinum diamond ring, after all, Cheng Qingyan was unique in his own mind, even if the platinum diamond ring he gave was an iron ring in the eyes of others, Duan Yun also wanted to give her a different proposal gift.

Although Duan Yun thought so, he was worried that there might not be platinum diamond rings sold on Zhongying Street, after all, Chinese people have not yet been in the habit of wearing platinum jewelry, and there is no sales, so naturally no one sells them, so he can only try his luck this time.

But fortunately, Duan Yun was on the counter of a shop at the end of the street, and saw three platinum diamond rings in the innermost corner of the counter, and the ring box was also very exquisite, with a red flannel box printed with the logo of Hong Kong's "Chow Tai Fook", which looked very high-end.

However, the three diamond rings on this counter look very small, and the mark on them is 0.1~0.3 carats, but the workmanship is very fine, the metallic luster and the brightness of the diamond are good, and they are placed in a pile of gold rings, which looks particularly alternative and conspicuous.

"How do you sell this diamond ring?" Duan Yun asked the shopkeeper who sold the goods.

"The cheapest one is 490, and the biggest one is 999. The owner just glanced at Duan Yun and said casually.

At that time, the price of gold in China was about 40 yuan per gram, while the price of platinum was about 110 yuan, and the price of a carat diamond was 9,000 yuan, so the market price of a carat diamond ring at that time should be about 11,000 yuan, so it seems that the price of 0.1~0.3 carat diamond rings sold here is basically reasonable.

In fact, the owner of this store did not expect his diamond ring to be sold at all, and the reason is very simple, because consumers on the mainland only recognize gold and not platinum, and the price of this diamond ring is very high, which is not affordable by ordinary people.

"Is there anything bigger with this diamond ring?" Duan Yun asked.

In Duan Yun's opinion, even the largest of the three diamond rings, a 0.3-carat diamond ring, is a little pitiful, marriage proposal is only once in a lifetime, of course Duan Yun wants something better.

"The biggest one in our store is a 0.6-carat diamond ring, but it's expensive...... the owner said impatiently.

"Can you take it out for me to see?" Duan Yun asked.

"You really bought it?"

"Isn't this nonsense? I'm sure I'll buy something good. Duan Yun said.

"Okay!" The owner of the goods saw that Duan Yun was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, which seemed to be a little different from ordinary guests, so he took out a small box from the drawer under the counter, opened it with a click, and gently handed it to Duan Yun.

Sure enough, this diamond ring is obviously a little larger than the ones on the counter, and the polishing is very fine, looking brilliant and eye-catching.

"Do you have a jewelry certificate? Duan Yun picked up the diamond ring and looked at it carefully for a while, it didn't feel like a fake, but he was still very cautious and asked the store for a jewelry appraisal certificate.

"We never sell fakes. The shopkeeper said, took out a jewelry appraisal certificate from under the counter, and handed it to Duan Yun.

Sure enough, this is a jewelry appraisal certificate printed in traditional Chinese characters, and from the photo, it looks exactly the same as the ring in front of you, which also shows that this diamond ring is 0.6 carats.

"How much?" Duan Yun asked.

"The price of this 0.6 carat diamond ring is 6,999 ......," the owner replied.

"6999!?Why don't you grab it, such a small ring costs 7,000 yuan!?" The army on the side couldn't help but exclaim when he heard this.

You must know that the army has earned less than 5,000 yuan in total in the past two years with Duan Yun, and such a ring like an iron ring actually costs 7,000 yuan when he opens his mouth, which makes him feel unbelievable.

"Bun ......," the shopkeeper glanced at the army with disdain.

"Okay, I want it!" Duan Yun said very dryly.

Seeing this, the army on the side of "Brother Duan......" was stunned, he didn't expect Duan Yun to buy this "iron ring" directly without even asking for a price.

"This is 7,000 yuan, you can count it!" Duan Yun took out seven bundles of Great Unity from the black leather bag he was carrying and threw them in front of the counter, saying to the shopkeeper.

......Seeing that Duan Yun really took out 7,000 yuan, the boss looked incredulous, after all, it is very rare to have such a generous customer in the mainland, so he immediately picked up these stacks of banknotes, and after counting them skillfully, his face was suddenly full of smiles, and he said in a flattering tone: "This boss, I'll change you to a bigger box......

"No, this is good. Duan Yun picked up the delicate ring box and took a look at it, then gently closed the lid, and then put it into the pocket of the suit's underwear......
