7. Send for shooting
Drinking white rice porridge and eating salted duck eggs, the taste was very fragrant, Tang Ming and Song Zihui were completely gobbling up, and they quickly drank all the pots of porridge.
Song Zihui sat on the chair, burped, and said suspiciously: "Why do I feel that today's porridge is better than in the past, is it because I am hungry?"
Tang Ming smiled: "It should be." ”
This pot of white rice porridge is boiled with pond water, and of course it tastes good, but he won't say it, this is a secret involving Xia He Dongtian.
Tang Ming sat for a while, feeling that the time was almost up, so he stood up and said: "It's time for you to brush the dishes, you didn't wash the dishes last night, today our company starts to work, I want to ask for a leave of absence first, and then go to identify the rough stone." ”
Song Zihui said: "Don't worry, the work of washing the dishes will be handed over to me, you can go and get busy." ”
Tang Ming returned to his bedroom, changed his clothes, and left the house with his bag.
He took out his mobile phone and was about to call the company's leaders to ask for a few days off, but as soon as he found out the phone number of the company's leaders, he began to hesitate.
Now that he has so many rough stones in his hands, it is definitely a lot of money to sell them, and he still has Xia He Dongtian, he doesn't need to work for others, not only does he earn less, but he also has to pretend to be a grandson for others, and he has been in the class for so many years, he has had enough.
He didn't hesitate for long, he made up his mind, got into the car, and drove in the direction of the company.
He came to the company, found the manager directly, and said that he was going to resign, and the manager retained him and approved it directly.
He came out of the company, looked back, smiled silently, got into his car, and left.
At this moment, he knew that he was no longer the same as before.
……
Yesterday he identified ten rough diamonds in a jewelry store, and today he plans to go to a few more jewelry stores to identify some more rough diamonds, and by the way, learn how to identify rough diamonds, after all, he has many large rough diamonds that are not suitable for identification.
Tang Ming ran for a whole day, except for lunch at noon, the rest of the time was in various jewelry companies, today's harvest is very great, not only identified hundreds of rough diamonds, he also learned the method of identifying diamonds, you can go home and identify yourself.
Among the hundreds of rough diamonds identified today, more than 20 of them have reached the standard of gemstones, which is much higher than the diamond mines on the earth.
At night, after Song Zihui went to sleep, Tang Ming locked the door of the house, sneaked into the Xiahe Cave, and began to identify the rough diamond.
After a busy night, Tang Ming identified all the rough diamonds, and the results were still good, three hundred and twenty-five of these rough diamonds could reach the gem level, and the largest one exceeded two kilograms, reaching two thousand one hundred and twenty-eight carats, this weight, even if it was put in the world, it could be ranked first.
There are not only white diamonds, but also many colored diamonds, and a black diamond weighing 20 carats.
Of course, Tang Ming will not sell all of them for so many rough diamonds, he is going to keep a few, among which he left the largest white diamond, as well as the black diamond, a red diamond, and a pink diamond, of which the weight of the red diamond has reached thirteen carats, and the weight of the pink diamond has exceeded thirty carats.
Each of the four rough diamonds he left behind was worth a fortune, and their combined value far exceeded that of the rough diamonds that were to be sold.
……
On the plane from Songjiang to the capital, Tang Ming sat in the first-class seat and closed his eyes to recuperate, he stayed in Songjiang for two days, and after identifying the rough diamonds, he contacted the manager of the Sotheby's auction house in the capital office, and brought the rough diamonds over today to see how many could meet the auction standards.
It took more than two hours from Songjiang to the capital, and after getting off the plane, Tang Ming took a car to the booked hotel.
He has been to the capital a few times, to be honest, there is really nothing to see, he finished eating in the hotel, went back to his room, locked the door, and went directly into the Xia He Cave Heaven.
Whether it was at home or in Songjiang, there were people around him, and he didn't dare to enter the Xiahe Cave easily, so he could only sneak in every night, not only was it inefficient, but it also delayed the time to sleep, so until now, the Xiahe Cave has not been cleaned up.
In addition to sending the rough stones to auction this time, he also wanted to stay in the capital for a few days, preparing to clean up the Xia He Cave and plant some more plants.
You must know that the growth rate of plants planted in Xiahedong is more than ten times that of the outside world, and it would be too wasteful not to plant plants.
After a few hours of busyness, he piled all the stones in one corner, uprooted all the dead branches, and piled them in another corner, and the whole Xiahe Cave was suddenly a lot cleaner.
"I should build a wooden house here, put a bed and all kinds of furniture in the wooden house, plant a few fruit trees next to the wooden house, when I have nothing to do, I can rest in the wooden house, and if I am thirsty, I can eat some fruit, even if the world is over, I can't die as long as I hide in the summer cave sky." Tang Ming wiped the sweat from his face, looked at the flat land in front of him, and looked forward to it infinitely.
For Tang Ming, Xia He Dongtian is his private space alone, no one can enter here except him, he can receive all his secrets here, and he doesn't have to worry about being discovered by others.
He stayed in the summer cave for a while, then returned to his room, went to the bathroom to take a shower, and went to bed.
The next morning, he came to the office of Sotheby's auction house with all the rough diamonds, and found the manager surnamed Su who had been contacted.
Soon, the jewelry appraiser finished the appraisal, and he nodded to Manager Su, indicating that there was no problem with these rough diamonds.
As soon as Manager Su wanted to speak, a Caucasian man about thirty years old walked in, Manager Su hurriedly shut up, stood up and said, "Mr. Parker, why are you here?"
Mr. Parker said in fluent Chinese: "I heard an employee say that this gentleman was going to sell rough diamonds, and I was curious, so I came and took a look." ”
Then he stretched out his hand and said to Tang Ming: "Hello, sir, it's a pleasure to meet you, my name is Tony Parker, and my family has some shares in Sotheby's. ”
Tang Ming didn't expect to meet the people from the family behind Sotheby's auction house, he was stunned for a moment, and he also stretched out his hand, shook hands with Tony Parker, and said, "Hello, Mr. Parker, my name is Tang Ming, and I'm glad to meet you." ”
Tony Parker said, "Mr. Don, you don't have to be so polite, just call me Tony. ”
Tang Ming smiled: "Okay, then I'm welcome, Tony, don't call me Mr. Tang, just call me Tang Ming, or call me Tang." ”
Tony said, "Then I'll call you Don." ”
Tang Ming nodded and said, "Yes." ”
