Chapter 105: Identifying Diamonds
Before going to Ye Cong's house, Ye Chen and the others parked the car in front of the gift shop, planning to pick two gifts for Cress. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Brother Chen, what kind of gift do you want me to buy?" Cui Yuanyuan looked at the dazzling array of goods and didn't know what to do.
"Chreese wanted a Bonnie Bunny before, and she could buy one of these. Then I'll buy her another princess dress. Ye Chen thought about it for a while, and then chose a gift.
Sure enough, when Kress saw these gifts, her little face was happy and she didn't close her mouth.
"Thank you, Sister Yuanyuan!" The little girl dragged Cui Yuanyuan to the bedroom, saying that she wanted her to see what she looked like in her skirt.
"Yuanyuan, you can play with Kress for a while, and call you when we have dinner later." Ye Chen didn't go to play with them, he still had something to talk to Ye Cong.
The two walked into Ye Cong's study, and Ye Chen took out the metal box in his pocket.
"Big brother, I have something for you to take a look at." Ye Chen opened the metal box, revealing the velvet bag inside.
"It was a gift from someone when we were in Cape Town."
At first, Ye Cong didn't take it seriously, just curious about why his brother was so solemn. Until he opened the bag and saw the diamond.
"Oh my God, this can't be true, can it?" With a big mouth and a very surprised look, Ye Cong couldn't believe his eyes.
"I don't know, so I'd like you to help me take a look." Ye Chen didn't have any research on diamonds, so he could only hope that his eldest brother could give some advice.
Ye Cong held the diamond in his hand, swallowed and asked Ye Chen: "Let's talk about its origin first, look at this box is also quite good." ”
"It had something to do with what happened in Cape Town before, when Neo suddenly solved the crisis and it was that night that I got the box." Ye Chen told Ye Cong what happened that day, and named the wizard named John.
"Wizard? How can it be related to them? "Ye Cong couldn't have imagined that there was such a thing here." In other words, it was actually this John who manipulated the direction of the final event, making Neo give up the right to auction the gold mine, and then he gave you this thing as a thank you. ”
"Well, but I guess John doesn't know what's in this box. According to him, it was smuggled by him from Dursley. ”
"I can only say that Xiaochen, your luck is too good!" Ye Cong also had to sigh that Ye Chen had good luck this time, and took a box casually, which contained a diamond.
"Hehe, that John didn't suffer a loss, he got a large part of the gold mine out of thin air, maybe he can make a lot of money." Ye Chen's guess was right, John really made a lot of money with the gold mine and became a major mine owner in South Africa.
"So, Xiao Chen, what do you want to do with this diamond now?" Ye Cong returned the diamond to Ye Chen and asked him what to do with this thing.
"Big brother, do you know an expert in diamond identification?" Ye Chen told his eldest brother his thoughts, "I want to first identify how much this diamond is worth, and if it is true, I will find an institution to auction it." ”
"Exchange it for money and use it for investment. I think I'll be able to take it easier that way, Sherlock and they don't have any business looking for me during this time, and maybe I'll have to find another job sometime at some point. ”
Ye Chen wants to exchange this diamond for cash and use it to invest, so that he doesn't have to worry about work, and he can do some things he likes at will.
"Okay, I'll help you find an agency to identify. But in the end, it's better not to auction here, and I'll find a way to get an American auction company, so that it won't be easy for those people in South Africa to know. "Ye Chen's pink diamond is very big, if it is auctioned in Europe, it will be easy for those previous businessmen to know, and it will not be good to have branches when the time comes.
"Well, this will work too." Ye Chen also agreed with the eldest brother's opinion, after all, the origin of this diamond is a little unclear.
The diamond was received in the box and placed in Ye Cong's study. At this time, Alina also told them to go out to eat.
Cui Yuanyuan and Kress had already sat at the dining table, looking at the appearance of the two people, they got along well, sitting at the table and whispering in a low voice.
"Yes, Yuanyuan, you can get along with our little princess so quickly." Ye Chen was also very happy that Cui Yuanyuan could be accepted by her family.
"Uncle, you will definitely marry Sister Yuanyuan in the future, I like her very much." Kreese said on the side, holding Cui Yuanyuan's arm with both hands.
Cui Yuanyuan, who was blushing from her words, was also a little embarrassed and sat at the table silently.
"Yuanyuan, don't be restrained, treat this place as if it were your own home." Ye Cong comforted on the side.
Ye Chen enjoyed the feeling of sitting together as a family and having a good time, if only his parents were here at this time. One of the reasons why Ye Chen wanted to sell this diamond was to buy a bigger house here, so that he could bring his parents over, regardless of whether they decided to immigrate or not, they would be able to live together for a while longer.
However, Ye Chen has not told his parents about Yuanyuan, he looked at Cui Yuanyuan, and liked this girl very much from the bottom of his heart, although she was a little younger, but the two of them were very happy together.
"Uncle, Jason wrote to me." After eating, Kress ran back to the room and took out a gray parchment, raised it high, and told Ye Chen very ostentatiously.
"Really? Can Kress read it to me? "I didn't expect that she was always against Jason, but now she looks like a little sister.
"Okay," Chrese frowned again. "But there are a lot of words that people don't know."
Seeing Krees's sad appearance, Ye Chen picked her up and put her on his lap. "Let's read the letter together, uncle will teach you."
Spread out the letter Jason wrote to his sister, it was full of children's childish words, but Jason missed his sister everywhere. Although the two people always don't deal with each other when they are at home, it is impossible to deny the deep affection between them.
"So that's it, goodbye Christmas, dear sister. Love you Jason. Chrese finished reading the entire letter with Ye Chen's help and jumped off Ye Chen's lap.
"Okay, I'm done. I've got to go and put the letter away, but I can't lose it. She carefully ran back to her room with the letter.
"Will Jason come back for Christmas?" Ye Chen asked, Alina should be clear about this matter.
"Well, generally there is a long break at Christmas, and students who are willing to go home will go home once, otherwise it will be summer vacation." Alina had attended school at Hogwarts and learned about their holidays.
"Hey, Jason isn't at home, and it feels like there's a lot less joy at home." Ye Chen sighed that Jason and Kreese at home are a bunch of pistachios, which can always bring infinite joy to the family, but now she is also slowly growing up, and the time with her family is getting less and less.
Ye Chen suddenly thought of his parents now, how lonely they should be when he was abroad for such a long time.
