Chapter 733: Footsteps of Expansion
"Colorful Stone, a subsidiary of Yuanshan Group, successfully acquired Samarco Mining Company's four major ruby mines in Tocantins on April 11, local time in Brazil. With a turnover of US$470 million, this is the fourth major attack of the newly formed Yuanshan Group this week. ”
"Amazing Oriental Boy, he's expanding his territory in a big way. According to the latest statistics, 25% of the current colored gemstone mines in Brazil are owned by the Yuanshan Group. The total assets of their company are estimated to be as high as $10 billion, according to professional estimates. ”
"According to senior sources in the Yuanshan Group, they are interested in acquiring the tourmaline mine in the city of Codo in Samalco, and the two sides are currently in further discussions on the relevant matters......
However, a piece of news caught in the middle of these news has caused many people to be frightened and even sweaty, while some people are clapping their hands and excited.
"Hans, the former leader of the Blue Command, an illegal political party, absconded with his subordinates to rob the gem mine with weapons. According to Brazil's official reply, their request for the restoration of their reputation has not been heard, and the crackdown has been intensified. Hans is given three days to appear at the state federal prosecutor's office for questioning, after which he will be prosecuted and wanted in absentia. ”
With Fang Yuanshan handing over those men to the federal police department in Pará State, after the incident came to light, the Blue Command's hopes of restoring its reputation were dashed. And with the display of the seized weapons, the Blue Command has given the Brazilian people the impression that it is not just an illegal political party, but a criminal organization with a strong sense of revenge.
Fang Yuanshan also made a bloody investment, not only contributing money and efforts to vigorously advocate all kinds of viciousness of this gang, but also handed over the list of those backbone personnel to the police one by one, and at the same time submitted their crimes to the police.
Even so, he was not at ease, and when the "Pernambuco" State Prosecutor's Office summoned him, Fang Yuanshan personally went out and carried out a temporary action. In the suburban manor of "Kaluaru", Fang Yuanshan wiped out the eleven key members, including Lance.
He also found members of the "Sharp Team" to set up the scene, creating a sign that the other party was absconding in fear of crime. The members of Hans's men, after the absence of a leader, completely turned into a plate of loose sand, and began to wreak havoc everywhere ∟★dǐng∟★diǎn∟★小∟ ★ said, .≈.o√s_(); , causing the Brazilian government to step up the crackdown again.
After Hans called and threatened, Fang Yuanshan dismantled the behemoth in less than a week. Of course, there are official forces in it, but the main reason is that Fang Yuanshan's decapitation action played a key role.
At this time, Fang Yuanshan was listening to the analysis of professionals in a gem mine in the state of "Mato Grosso". Under the influence of the Blue Command some time ago, Fang Yuanshan found that his steps were still too small.
His foundation is thin, and there is no strong personnel behind him. With the rise of their company, the imps retreated, but the giants began to appear before his eyes.
It's like this "blue command", saying that he doesn't care, but their intertwined relationship is a resource that he doesn't have. If it weren't for the fact that they happened to give him the handle, it would still be a big problem.
"Boss, the gemstones in this mine are still mainly blue tourmaline, and the emeralds they found before should not be produced in our mine. ”
After hearing the words of this white mine director, Fang Yuanshan, who was pinching a gem in his hand and looking at it, frowned and said, "Since no emeralds have been found, why does the information show that it is produced here?"
To be honest, the reason why I bought this "Cuiabá" gem mine is that it once produced "emerald" gemstones. Otherwise, with the quality of blue tourmaline here, it is not worth the purchase price of 70 million US dollars.
The director "Judson" standing in front of Fang Yuanshan had a trace of embarrassment on his face. Seeing that Fang Yuanshan was still waiting for his answer, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "Boss, I'm ...... We don't really produce emeralds in our mines. Those gems were sold to our company by our family members in the mine, and then ...... After that, it became a mine production. ”
“…… Is that okay?"
After listening to this "Judson" words, Fang Yuanshan looked depressed. In fact, he can also understand that in order to increase the selling price, it is inevitable to play diǎn cat greasy. However, if you directly take the gems sold by others as if they have been produced in the mine, this is a diǎn over.
Looking at this director, Fang Yuanshan rolled his eyes and said, "Could it be that I get a few diamonds to your mine, and you also say that diamonds are produced here?"
Hearing the words of the current boss, Judson's face was even more embarrassed. The reason why he signed that letter at the beginning was that the general manager here said that it was used to attract investment, and he didn't think much about it. Who knew that the small company had sold the mine in a blink of an eye, and now he had to taste the consequences of what he had planted.
"The owner...... That one...... Gem Mine has its own characteristics, and the geological rock layers here determine that it will not appear that ...... That diamond!~"
“……”
Just kidding, I didn't expect this Judson to explain seriously, and Fang Yuanshan was extremely speechless when he heard it. I don't know how he was coaxed by that manager in the first place, and he even signed that letter, which cost their company tens of millions of dollars more.
However, no one can be blamed for this matter, as mentioned earlier, buying a mine is no different from gambling stones. The difference is that this "stone" is relatively large, and there are more "windows". You paid 70 million to buy this mine, and when you go back to the surface of the blue tourmaline, you deserve it if there are no more gems underneath. I am willing to gamble and lose~
"Do you know which miner sold those emeralds to your company in the first place?"
Judson may have thought of "making meritorious contributions", and after hearing Fang Yuanshan's words, he hurriedly said: "It was the Ignatz couple who sold it to our company, boss, do you need me to take you to them?"
"Then let's go and have a look~"
On the way, Judson said as he walked: "Boss, you don't have to hope too much about the emerald gemstones. Ignaz has already said that the gems were given to them by someone else in the early years, and they were not found in this mine. ”
Fang Yuanshan's diǎndiǎn head that understood said that he knew, and the reason why he wanted to go over and take a look was just to have the idea of what to do. Emerald, as the king of emeralds, has a very attractive color, and a trace amount of chromium oxide gives it a brilliant green color. Whether it is cloudy or sunny, whether it is under artificial light or natural light source, it always emits a soft and intense light, which is the charm of the king of green gemstones, "emerald".
Of course, drifting is not beautiful is not what he cares about, mainly because its price has been rising over the years. At last year's spring auction, a 36.57-carat natural emerald and diamond necklace was sold for 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars, and a 6.29-carat Tiffany natural emerald and diamond ring sold for 1 million Hong Kong dollars.
However, the price is high, but it is also quite rare, taking a medium-sized gem vein as an example, the emerald produced in a year will not exceed 50,000 carats, which is divided into clarity, color, and weight, only one qiē has reached the standard, in order to sell a good price. As for the king "emerald", it is even more unique.
The two men walked along the edge of the gray vein towards the mine rest area, where a group of men and women in miner's uniforms were standing under the faucet and drinking water, the water flowing down the corners of their mouths, and making black marks on their faces, which were the rock ash in the mine.
More than a dozen miners saw their group coming, and they all looked at them with a smile, and the look of looking at aliens made Fang Yuanshan laugh for a while. In particular, many people's faces are black except for their eyes and mouth, and they are not recognizable.
After saying hello to the employees one by one, Judson over there had already found Ignaz, a little white old man wearing a torn hard hat and covered in dirt, and he couldn't see his original appearance......
