Chapter 454: You can't be too greedy

Gao Yang walked out of the hut, threw the bag containing the emerald to Li Jinfang, walked to Lucica's side, and pointed to the shed and the people who were squatting on the ground: "Who are they, what's going on?"

"The sheds were full of workers, some of them locals, many of whom had been tricked into going down to the mines to dig for gems, and there were more than 40 people in the big house, all armed guards. ”

Gao Yang nodded and said to Ivan: "The number of armed guards is not matched, it seems to be less, and, how to deal with these people?"

Ivan shook his head and said: "Leave them alone, collect the weapons and let them leave on their own, what I'm focusing on now is what is going on with Arturo's mine, I feel that this mine is not so simple." ”

After saying that, Ivan went to the room where the armed guards were staying, and after a few loud words in Spanish, he let Antonov come out of the house with a man and muttered in Spanish for a long time.

After asking, Ivan immediately asked Antonov to take the people back to the house, and then whispered to Gao Yang: "I have asked clearly, now we can leave." ”

Gao Yang pointed to the big room and said, "What about those people inside?"

Ivan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Don't do anything, just take their weapons away, do you see those people? As long as those guards are out of weapons, these workers who are forced to work in the mines and can't get a penny will take care of the rest for us." ”

After Ivan had spoken, the people went into the house and took out all their weapons. There are also communication equipment. Like things like telephone intercoms. They have all been confiscated, but they will definitely not take these things away, anyway, the camp is next to the cliff, just throw the weapon directly under the cliff.

After everything was put in order, and after making sure that the people in the camp would not pose any more threats to them, Gao Yang and they left.

As he walked back, Ivan sighed regretfully and turned his head to look at the camp again. Then he said reluctantly: "Do you know how to say, Arturo this guy took a shit luck, and he found an old mine, I really want to continue to open this pit now, but think about it, it's not my style to develop a fixed industry in one place, but it's a pity." ”

Gao Yang said with interest: "How do you say this?"

Ivan shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'd better tell you carefully, Colombia is the largest producer of emeralds. It is also the top emerald producing country.

There are three major mining areas in Colombia, Muzo, Chivor and Coscue, and the Muzo mine is recognized as the best source of emeralds in the world. Emerald theft never stopped, and Arturo thought he had found a good vein of emerald in the Muzo mine, but he borrowed money from me and went to great lengths to open a mine, but in the end he found nothing.

Arturo lost money and had to run away to collect his debts, but Arturo was lucky enough to come to Lagunade Guatavita, where I am now.

Before the fifteenth century, the Indians of Colombia mined emeralds on this mountain, and after the arrival of the Spanish Tooth people, they plundered the gold and precious stones of the Indians, and later, the Indians here sank their gold and emeralds into a lake at the bottom of the mountain, and sealed all the mines, until now no one knows where the mines of the ancient Indians of Ludao are.

The mountain where we are located has been mined on a large scale, and now the veins of emerald have been exhausted, and no one continues to mine here, Arturo just wanted to try his luck, but who would have thought that after he knocked down the mine, he would actually open the old mine of the Indians, so he found a vein with great reserves, and this is the way it was. ”

Ivan's words made Gao Yang very emotional, and said: "I found an old mine cave that was hidden, I really don't know if that Arturo is lucky or unlucky, if he can keep driving, how much money can he make?"

Ivan shrugged his shoulders and said, "Are you saying how many emeralds can be mined in that mine? This is something that only God can know, maybe fifty million, maybe ten million, maybe one billion, but certainly not too little." ”

Gao Yang smiled: "Then why don't you continue mining? This is not a difficult thing for you, right?"

Ivan shook his head and said, "You can't be too greedy." ”

After saying with emotion, Ivan smiled bitterly: "It's really a pity to let go of this mine, but I'm just an arms dealer, even if I occasionally do some part-time jobs, it's all a short-term and quick business, and to open this mine, if I don't want to be robbed, I either arrange a large number of people here, or I have to cooperate with the local gangsters, and I can't leak the news, otherwise, once the government knows about it, it will be impossible to continue mining."

For an arms dealer, it's good to sell your arms with peace of mind, and cooperating with the gang is a stupid choice, I can sell weapons to the gang, but I will never cooperate with the gang for a long-term cooperation, so I still give up this mine more directly. ”

Gao Yang smiled and said, "Anyway, we have gained a lot this time, so what are we going to do next? What to do with these emeralds?"

Ivan snapped his fingers and smiled: "I've found an expert who will give an approximate price after looking at our gemstones, and then we'll go to the gemstone market in BogotΓ‘ and sell the emeralds." ”

Gao Yang was surprised: "Do we still need to go to the market to sell the gem?"

Ivan shook his head and said: "No, no, of course we can find a buyer to sell all the gems at one time, but you and I don't understand emeralds, and the gem dealer I can find is not too deep with me, so I dare not guarantee that he will not lie to me, you must know that the grade of the gemstones is different, and the price is also very different, so we will identify the gems first, and at least we will not be cheated after knowing how much the Dao is worth." ”

At this time, Frye, who was walking in front of Gao Yang, turned his head and said loudly: "Boss, don't sell all the emeralds, don't forget to leave one for Yelena, I have already planned, I have to keep at least a few of my gems to make a few pieces of jewelry for my mother and my girlfriend." ”

Gao Yang scolded with a smile: "Get out, you still need to say it, I have planned it a long time ago, sell it if it is not good, and it is best to pick it out and keep it." ”

Li Jinfang sighed and said: "Alas, you all have someone to send, you said that if I leave the gems, who can I give them, I decided, sell them, sell them all, there is no one left, and I feel annoyed when I look at it." ”

Ivan Ha Luha smiled and said: "Actually, you can leave all the gems, Colombia is the origin of emeralds, so the price is low, if you take the emeralds to other places and sell them, the price can at least double, but it also depends on how much our harvest is worth this time, this time our gems are a large number of goods, if the value is too high, it is difficult to sell them all at once without the BogotΓ‘ trading market." ”

The harvest was quite fruitful, everyone was in a good mood, Grolev smiled: "I thought that all arms dealers were like vampires Ulyanko, who refused to let go of any opportunity to make money, Ivan, in this regard, you are better than Ulyanko, I can guarantee that if Ulyanko was here, he would never let go of that pit." ”

Ivan smiled: "Ulyanko? I can also guarantee that he will never let go of that pit, I don't think Ulyanko's nickname is a vampire, but it should be called a dragon, he has no resistance to anything shiny and valuable, a million dollars in front of him, Ulyanko may be able to resist the temptation, and he can think calmly, but if a million dollars, no, half a million dollars worth of diamonds are placed in front of him, Ulyanko will lose his mind, if he is asked to give up an emerald vein, he will go crazy, he will definitely go crazy。 ”

It took almost three hours to get from the mountain to Arturo's mining camp, and by the time Gao Yang and the others returned, it had taken almost three hours, and they had returned to the bottom of the mountain with a smile and a smile, and by the time they got on the car at the foot of the mountain, the sky had already begun to lighten.

As soon as he got into the car, Ivan couldn't wait to pick up the phone and informed him that he had contacted the experts in advance and asked them to go to the manor he rented to identify the gems.

When they returned to the manor rented by Ivan in the suburbs, it was already dark, and after Gao Yang put down all the weapons and equipment, they did not go to rest, but went directly to the assembly living room of the manor, sitting on the sofa one by one, waiting for the arrival of the appraisal experts.

Except for Gao Yang and Ivan, that is, only Antonov knew how much he had gained this time, and when Ivan triumphantly put both bags on the table, and then poured out all the gems inside, it immediately attracted an exclamation.

The emeralds were piled up on the table, and Ivan put his hand on the pile of gems and said loudly: "Guys, we have harvested at least fifteen kilograms of gems this time, and now I can happily declare that I will never lose money this time, haluha." ”

After Bruce whistled loudly, his eyebrows fluttered: "Fack, I never thought that gems can also be counted in kilograms." ”

Bruce's words drew another burst of laughter, and just as they were rejoicing in the fruits of their trip, the expert in identifying gemstones finally arrived.

Because there were too many gems, Ivan asked him to find a good expert in advance and called an extra helper temporarily, when Ivan's bodyguard introduced the expert into the living room, the moment he saw the emerald, the two experts immediately said in unison: "So many!" (to be continued......
