Hearing the conversation between Morgan and the appraiser, Gao Yang had some bad thoughts, because the large diamond he didn't take out and was still lying in his pocket was the guarantee of his windfall.

But the problem is that the treasures that Gao Yang uses to press the bottom of the box are all colored diamonds, and if the colored diamonds are not valuable, then the problem is big.

Involving a large amount of income, Gao Yang couldn't help but be anxious, and said in a deep voice: "No, please wait, Mr. James, you just said that diamonds are worth nothing if they are colorless? So, are diamonds with color worthless? For example, pink or black or something?"

James smiled: "No, no, colored diamonds are more valuable, what I mean by colorless is the most valuable, refers to purity, is a transparent diamond without variegation, the purer the more valuable, for example, low-grade diamonds will show brown or gray and other variegated colors, and colored diamonds are also looking at purity, colored diamonds are much more expensive than colorless diamonds of the same grade." ”

Knowing that colored diamonds are more valuable than colorless diamonds, Gao Yang breathed a sigh of relief and became more in a better mood, and smiled at the moment: "Very good, I have no problem, please start." ”

James took out a small electronic magnifying glass, looked at the diamond carefully for a while, raised his head with an incredible face, and said: "The quality is very, very good, mind between the highest grade and the second grade, and it is so big, it is counted as the highest grade of rough diamond, presumably the acquirer will not have much opinion, this diamond is worth half a million US dollars before polishing, at least this amount." ”

Gao Yang and Morgan glanced at each other, they both nodded slightly, and then Gao Yang smiled: "I like to hear good news." Please go ahead, Mr. James. Hopefully, this batch of diamonds will all be of the same standard. ”

There are not many diamonds left. The largest is the size of a soybean, and after cutting and polishing, it is the volume suitable for making a diamond ring, James put the identified diamond aside, picked out a relatively large one from the remaining diamonds, and continued to identify it.

Grading a diamond isn't just a matter of looking at it, but James was slow at the beginning and got faster as he went. The further you go, the faster you go.

After James looked at all the diamonds, he raised his head and said to Morgan: "Sir, this batch of diamonds, there are seven diamonds that can reach the FL grade, that is, the highest grade, and there are thirty-six diamonds that can reach the IF grade, and the rest all belong to the third grade. But to make it easier for you to understand, it's okay to use loose diamond standards. ”

Gao Yang nodded and said, "Thank you." Mr. James, yes, if these diamonds all come from the same mine, then can you assume that your results prove that the diamonds from that diamond mine are all of very high quality? ”

After hesitating for a moment, James said: "Sir, I am only a gem grader, not a geologist, and your questions are a bit beyond the scope of my work, but, from my personal experience, I personally think you can understand that as long as the diamonds identified are not specially selected high-quality rough diamonds, I personally believe that the mining area that produces these diamonds can be regarded as a super-high-quality mining area." ”

Gao Yang was very satisfied, but Morgan frowned and said, "I don't know much, does the origin of diamonds have a lot to do with the grade?"

James smiled: "Yes sir, it has a lot to do with it, the largest diamond producing areas now are actually Australia and Russia, but the diamonds produced in Australia cannot be called gem-quality at all, the value is very low, and the same is true for Russian diamonds, so when we talk about the largest diamond origin, we all think that it is South Africa, because South Africa is the largest producer of gem-quality diamonds." ”

Morgan nodded and said, "Very good, thank you for your professional advice, Mr. James." ”

Morgan had given the eviction order, and James stood up, shook hands with Morgan and Gao Yang, and left the room under Nelson's leadership.

Gao Yang wanted James to help him see the diamond, but he was a little worried, so he didn't take it out directly, and after James left, Gao Yang said softly: "Where did you find this expert?

Morgan laughed: "Of course, I still need to ask, if it is not reliable, how can I bring him to South Sudan." ”

Gao Yang nodded and said, "Very good, then he has to help me identify it again, because I didn't plan to let him see really good things." ”

Morgan was amazed, "Man, do you have anything better?"

Gao Yang smiled, took out the largest red diamond from his pocket and pinched it in the palm of his hand, then he put his hand on the glass round table, and slowly let go of his hand, so that the diamond appeared in front of Morgan's eyes.

Looking at the huge diamond on the round table, Morgan held his breath, his eyes were about to pop out, and after swallowing his saliva with difficulty, he said in a trembling voice: "God, this is God's masterpiece, it is so beautiful, so beautiful that it makes people feel intoxicated, can I pick it up and take a look?"

"Of course, please feel free to look. ”

Morgan took the diamond in his hand and glanced at the setting sun at the window.

The diamond is a brilliant rose red, but it seems more appropriate to say blood red, and the sunlight is refracted by the diamond under the setting sun, leaving a brilliant red glow on Morgan's face.

"It's beautiful! I can't breathe!"

After saying something in a daze, Morgan glanced at Gao Yang, and then he solemnly put the diamond back on the round table and stretched out his hand to Gao Yang.

Gao Yang didn't know what Morgan meant, but he still shook hands with Morgan, and when he shook hands, Morgan said with a stern face: "Congratulations, Gao, congratulations on stepping into the ranks of billionaires, with this diamond, you can live an early retirement life." ”

Gao Yang smiled and said, "I also think that this diamond is at least worth more than 100 million, I hope that as you said, this diamond can make me a billionaire." ”

Morgan swallowed and said, "This diamond has magical powers, it can ingest people's souls, I have no interest in gemstones, but looking at this diamond, I can't take my eyes off, it's amazing, it's so beautiful, it's the most touching thing in the world." ”

Gao Yang pouted and said: "It's not easy to get this diamond, I almost died, it's true like you said, I can't take my eyes off this thing, the first time I looked at it carefully, it took a lot of effort to remove my eyes." ”

Morgan said urgently: "Tell James to see how much it is worth, high, think about it, if you can find one, there will be a second, a third, if we mine diamonds, even if we find two more diamonds like this, no, even if there is only one, this mine is worth opening." ”

Gao Yang stretched out his hand and said, "No, wait, it's not what you think, the origin of this diamond, well, how to say it, have you heard of the Star of Hope? ”

Morgan nodded and said: "I know, the Star of Hope is too famous, of course I've heard of it, although it's not too clear, but I remember that it was a French explorer, in a temple in India, to be precise, he stole the diamond from a god statue, and the explorer ended badly, after his death, the Star of Hope was given to Louis XIV, and when Louis XIV died, it was given to Louis XV, and then Louis XVI, in short, every French king who got the Star of Hope ended up miserable, then the banker, and then ...... , I don't remember exactly, in short, everyone who got the Star of Hope ended very badly, and the Star of Hope became the Star of Damnation, until its final owner, an American, donated the Star of Hope to the Smith Institute, and the tragedy came to an end. ”

Gao Yang sighed and said, "You should be able to understand why I asked you if you know the Star of Hope, right?"

Morgan opened his mouth wide and said, "Could it be that you also got this diamond from the idol?"

Gao Yang smiled bitterly: "That's right, the eyes of a god statue, so, I think it's better to dispose of it as much as possible." ”

Morgan was taken aback, and when he looked at the red diamond again, his eyes were no longer as hot as they had just been, but a little more vigilant.

After taking a closer look at the diamond, Morgan whispered: "Don't tell anyone about the origin of the diamond, don't tell anyone, with the precedent that the Star of Hope is not a legend, people will definitely not be willing to buy a diamond from the god statue, even if this diamond is really beautiful, hell, just now I thought that no matter how much it costs, I would buy it as an heirloom, and now I have changed my mind." ”

Gao Yang smiled bitterly: "That's right, I originally planned to treat it as a family heirloom and pass it on from generation to generation, but after I remembered that the Hope Star used to be the eyes of a god statue, well, I immediately dispelled this idea, I had to sell it as much as possible, even if the price was lower." ”

Morgan nodded and said, "Right choice, okay, let's figure out how much it's worth first." ”

After saying that, Morgan said loudly, "Nelson, please come over again, Mr. James." ”

Gao Yang put away the diamond first, and when James came in again, after Nelson went out and closed the door, Gao Yang said slowly: "I'm sorry, Mr. James, please promise that you will keep what you see next strictly confidential and don't tell anyone." ”

James smiled and said, "Sir, this is a must. ”

Gao Yang nodded, put the red diamond on the round table, and said softly, "Please take a look." ”

James was completely stunned, looking at the diamond on the table, he was stunned and said: "This is, this is fake, right? I can't believe that there is such a perfect thing in the world, it is red, perfect red, compared to this diamond, the Musayev red diamond is a glass bead, my reason makes me unable to believe my eyes!"
