Chapter 153: Pink Diamonds
Diamond refers to the polished diamond, an elemental crystal composed of carbon elements, symbolizing love and loyalty.
A carat of poor quality diamonds costs two or three yuan, and if it is a high-quality diamond, it is even more expensive than hundreds of thousands of yuan.
Some rare diamonds, which are so precious that they go up to auction, are even more expensive.
At auctions around the world, the most expensive diamond ever sold was a pink diamond. In 2010, at an auction in Geneva, Switzerland, a British jeweler sold a 24.78-carat pink diamond for more than $46 million.
24.78 carats is how much it weighs, converted into grams is only 4.956 grams, such a small stone, can be sold for more than 46 million US dollars, which shows the popularity of rare diamonds.
Su Bei looked at the information found on the Internet, and then glanced at the wooden box placed next to the laptop, the wooden box was also placed in a pink diamond, as for how heavy, Su Bei had not weighed it, and it was bigger than the diamond that sold for more than 46 million US dollars.
Su Bei asked Su Gui to find an electronic scale and weigh it, 6.878 grams, which is 34.39 grams when converted into carats.
Su Bei immediately became excited, he got this pink diamond from the shipwreck is nearly ten carats heavier than the information on the Internet, although the price of the diamond can not be completely measured by the size of the head, but also depends on other qualities, but, such a large pink diamond, as long as the quality is not too bad, how can it cost more than 10 million US dollars.
Besides, this pink diamond has been in the dust at the bottom of the sea for so long. As soon as it was taken out, it was still so bright and beautiful, even if Subei, who originally liked crystal clear jade, had an irrepressible love for it. And the pink I got is even stronger. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a diamond of bad quality.
Su Bei took out the pink diamond from the wooden box, put it in his hand and grasped it for a while, and then said to Su Gui next to him: "You help me find someone to make this diamond into a diamond ring." ”
Although this pink diamond may be worth tens of millions of dollars, Su Bei does not plan to sell it for money, and he is not short of money, such a beautiful diamond. It happens to be used as a wedding ring for Sister Bei Bei in the future.
Originally, Subei also wanted to take some photos of diamonds for Sister Beibei, but now he plans to use pink diamonds as a wedding ring for Sister Beibei, for surprise. Naturally, the photos were not taken.
Put the diamond back in the wooden box, hand it to Su Gui, and let him do it, Su Bei himself was thinking. What is the origin of that wreck? How could there be such a precious diamond.
"Judging from the style and materials of the wreck, it should be a ship within the last two hundred years, and the owner of the wreck should not be unknown, otherwise there would not be such a valuable diamond, but unfortunately, too much history has been drowned in the tide of time......"
Su Bei thought for a while, and then stopped delving into it, even if such a question was investigated. It is also very likely that there will be no answer, there are too many shipwrecks in the sea. As long as it is a wreck that is not specifically marked, it is difficult to find its source.
"Treasure hunting in the sea is very interesting...... One of the two corners, the foundation bricks, is flowing all over the sea, and the next time you go to look for it, you may be able to look for the shipwreck at the bottom of the sea at the same time. ”
An inadvertent treasure hunt made Subei interested in finding a shipwreck in the vast sea, which originally sounded a bit boring.
Of course, he didn't plan to look for the shipwreck immediately, and even those two incomparably precious array foundation bricks Su Bei didn't think about when to set out to find them.
In Subei's view, there is no need to rush these things, anyway, they are all their own. Even if others see the corners of the two formation base bricks, they will only treat them as ordinary stones, and it is useless to hold them, and it will be unfair to put them on the table.
Just thinking about it, the mobile phone rang, and the caller was Li Beibei.
"Xiaobei, did you go deep into the sea yesterday? Is the photo you sent me a shark?" Sister Beibei's voice on the phone was still so gentle, but there was still a faint hint of curiosity.
The sea, which is still an area that is difficult for humans to conquer at present.
Su Bei told him about his experience yesterday, but when he didn't explicitly say about the pink diamond, he just said that he found a good thing in the wreck, and he would surprise her in the future.
Li Beibei said to Su Bei about the experience of the seabed for one night, and said with a little wistfulness: "When I quit my job in the future, I will have time to accompany you to experience these strange things." ”
The two chatted for a while, and Su Bei talked about the meeting gift he prepared for his father-in-law.
"You said you prepared a big live cow and a live tuna more than a meter long to see my parents?" Su Bei listened to Su Bei's words and almost didn't laugh.
"Yes, I'm also going to take a hundred hares, Sister Beibei, do you say it's enough, or I'll go get some other seafood, anyway, with Su Gui, it's easy to get some seafood in the sea." ”
Li Beibei on the other end of the phone was a little crying and laughing, and when he saw Su Bei say seriously, he had to remind: "Xiaobei, my parents live in the city." ”
"And then?" Su Bei didn't react for a while, he only thought about the first time, to make the old man and mother-in-law have a better impression of him.
"Then, you get a live cow, a live fish more than one meter long, where to put them, the fish is okay to say, the cow really has no place to raise, if you eat the flowers and plants in the community, you have to compensate." ”
Only then did Su Bei realize that he had almost made a low-level mistake, and said a little embarrassedly: "Then I will ask Su Gui to handle all the ingredients and then fly them back to China, anyway, it is fast to transport things now." ”
After Li Beibei hung up the phone, she felt like laughing no matter how she thought about it, but she was also deeply moved in her heart. If he hadn't been eager to please his parents, Xiaobei wouldn't have done the "stupid" thing of sending a big live cow to the people in the city.
"It's a little silly, but it's silly and cute. ”
As soon as Su Bei hung up Sister Beibei's phone, Su Huai called in from the phone in the United States.
Su Huai helped Subei buy a ranch in the United States, and his efficiency was naturally extremely fast.
"Sir, this ranch is relatively close to the airport, the conditions are good in all aspects, and it meets your requirements, considering that you are going to buy a plane in the future, so I chose this place, a little more than 10,000 acres, and the price is 12 million US dollars. ”
The ranch chosen by Su Huai is in Montana, the northwestern part of the United States, a well-known state of agriculture and animal husbandry.
Su Bei nodded after listening, although the ranch next to the city of Billings he heard for the first time, but he was very satisfied with Su Huai's choice, the pasture in the Billings Airport is only more than 20 minutes by car, only 40 minutes away from the city, this is the most satisfactory place for him, he has always liked this kind of quiet area that can be freely chosen, and Billings has a route to the country, but there is no plane, it is more convenient to go back and forth.
