Chapter 576: Okamura Ninji's saber
As Ye Feng's words fell, Du Yu, Sun Zilong, Ah Da and Ah Er, all four of them had a stunned expression at this time, their eyes widened in shock, and their mouths opened wide and they couldn't speak.
If it is really as Ye Feng said, the mezzanine of this oil painting is Van Gogh's real starry sky, then this is definitely a real big leak, which is much higher than the value of the treasures that Ye Feng picked up before.
After all, Van Gogh's authentic works, any piece is worth a lot of money, just like the owner of this calligraphy and painting shop said, in recent years, Van Gogh's oil paintings have repeatedly broken records at auction prices, and the lowest transaction price of a piece of sunflower is as high as 39.5 million meters of gold.
Among them, the statue of Dr. Gachet was sold for 82.5 million meters of gold, and the time of the transaction was still in 1990, more than 20 years have passed since now, not counting the premium of this oil painting, but according to the speed of the increase of the object, the value of this oil painting is not impossible to exceed at least 300 million meters of gold, or even reach the number of 500 million meters of gold.
According to the exchange rate of Huaxia coins and rice gold, 300 million rice gold is the amount of nearly 2 billion Huaxia coins, and this price is definitely an astronomical amount. And if it is 500 million, the number of 3 billion Huaxia coins is even more sky-high that makes people feel like their hearts are beating faster.
After a long time, the group finally came back to their senses.
For antiques, they have an almost blind confidence in Ye Feng, and they have also heard of the words "picture in picture" and word in word, so when Ye Feng said that the mezzanine in it was Van Gogh's real work starry sky, no one doubted it at the first time.
Although it is difficult to make the mezzanine of this kind of calligraphy and painting collection, some masters can still do it, and the mezzanine they make is difficult to distinguish if it is not carefully distinguished.
At this moment, everyone ignored an important question, Ye Feng found that the picture-in-picture in the oil painting was correct, but how did he know that the mezzanine was Van Gogh's real starry sky? Fortunately, the crowd did not react, and they did not recall it until they returned to the hotel to open the mezzanine, which gave Ye Feng a good opportunity to explain.
Among all the shops with calligraphy and painting collections on the second floor, after Ye Feng and his party walked in, there was nothing to gain in the last store, and the group continued to the third floor.
The third layer is some jade collections, different from the analogy of those jade collections in China, although it is also dominated by jadeite, but the rest is dominated by various diamonds and gemstones, and nephrite is rarely seen, but in China, it is basically dominated by nephrite, and there are very few diamonds and gemstones.
The jadeite is not attractive to Ye Feng at all now, but the top-grade jadeite in his hand is enough to surpass the inventory of any top jeweler, not to mention that he now has his own jadeite vein, and the reserves and quality are no less than Liu Feng's dragon pit.
And under the perspective ability, even if there is no jadeite vein, Ye Feng does not have to worry about the problem of jadeite at all.
However, those diamonds and gemstones aroused Ye Feng's great interest, judging by the asking prices of the owners of these jade collections, the prices of these diamonds and gemstones should be very high, and the value of jadeite is about the same.
"If only I could get a jade vein myself!" Ye Feng had such a thought in his heart.
After some inspection, Ye Feng didn't make a move, leaving the last jade collection shop on the third floor, Ye Feng set his eyes on Du Yu and said: "Brother Du, there are a lot of diamonds and gemstones here, could it be that there are many diamond mines in the country?" ”
According to Ye Feng's analysis, there are many nephrite jade in addition to jadeite in China, that is because there are nephrite veins in China, and now there are basically diamonds and gemstones in addition to jadeite here.
"No, where will there be any diamond and gemstone veins here in the United States, the world's largest diamond and gemstone veins are basically concentrated in Africa, with South Africa, Namibia, Botswana, Zaire, Angola, which are the five countries that produce the most diamonds and gemstones in Africa." Du Yu said slowly: "Except for Africa, there are not many mineral veins that can occasionally produce diamonds and gemstones in the rest of the places, probably only Russia, Australia and Canada. ”
"I thought diamonds and gemstones were produced here in the United States." Ye Feng smiled.
"In fact, if it is said that rice is rich in production, after all, most of the diamond and gem veins in Africa are under the control of the United States, and the policy implemented by rice for diamonds and gemstones is hunger marketing." Du Yu continued: "These are the reasons why the prices of diamonds and gemstones have been high, and they have always surpassed those nephrite jade in our country in terms of value other than jadeite. ”
"Brother Du, what do you think if we build some diamond and gem mines here in Africa?" Ye Feng continued.
Russia, Australia, Canada, these countries are relatively developed in their economies, presumably for the mining of diamonds and gemstones have a very strict control, want to take some diamonds and gem veins from these countries for mining is afraid that it is difficult, but these African countries, because the economy is relatively backward, and the international status is also very underground, but a good breakthrough.
The except, of course, of South Africa, which is a developing economic powerhouse, and China, Argentina, Russia, and Brazil have become emerging economies.
"I'm afraid it's hard!" Du Yu sighed and said.
"How hard is it?" Ye Feng asked.
"As I said before, all the current jade veins are basically under the control of the United States, and the United States is still expanding the exploration of the mineral veins, so there are very few remaining mineral veins, and if we want to mine them ourselves, I am afraid that we must also explore the mineral veins ourselves, and it is basically impossible to buy other people's mineral veins." Du Yu continued.
"This is no problem, anyway, there is no hurry, we can take our time, and I believe that those diamond veins and the jade veins in Myanmar must be the same, there are a lot of reserves that have been mined, and there must be some diamonds that have not been mined." Ye Feng continued.
"That's just as well." Du Yu nodded.
"We can start from those collapsed veins, and maybe we can pick up a big leak!" Ye Feng continued.
"You're not going to be addicted to picking up leaks, are you? Picking up a vein of diamonds and gemstones, where is it so easy. Du Yu smiled.
"Brother Du, don't forget, in Myanmar, I mined the jadeite rough from the abandoned jadeite veins abandoned by others, and maybe it is still possible to pick up real diamonds and gemstone veins from the abandoned veins of others." Ye Feng swore by it.
Du Yu nodded when he heard this: "Speaking of this matter, I've been thinking about the boss who sold you the jade ore vein, what kind of expression did he have when he saw you mining the jade rough?" It must be even uglier than ****! ”
An abandoned ore vein, completely bought as a barren mountain, but now it has been mined out of the jade rough, this depressed mood can be imagined, and it will not be satisfactory to anyone.
“****? If **** can return the jade vein, I think the boss will definitely be willing. Sun Zilong grabbed the words and said.
"Haha!" The crowd laughed.
After chatting for a while, Du Yu continued to get down to business: "If we really want to engage in diamond and gemstone veins, South Africa is actually a good choice. ”
"South Africa?" Ye Feng froze, South Africa is the strongest economic strength among the five major diamond and gemstone producing countries in Africa, how can it be South Africa, in his imagination, those economically backward countries are the best choice.
"South Africa's economy is one of the strongest of the five countries, and it stands to reason that the mining of diamonds and gemstones should be very tightly regulated, so why not a few other countries?"
"It is because South Africa has the strongest economy and the greatest international influence that South Africa is chosen." Du Yu continued.
"Powerful South Africa, only less interference from the United States, if it is a few other countries, I am afraid that we have unearthed the diamond and gemstone veins, as long as they are mined, it will be difficult for the veins to be kept in the end, and the United States will definitely try their best to get the veins away by means of open buying and stealing." At this time, South Africa, which is the most powerful, is the best choice, after all, such a country can have its own true will.
"Won't it?"
"......" Du Yu nodded cautiously and continued to give a few examples.
After hearing this, Ye Feng secretly gasped in his heart, according to Du Yu's statement and the things that happened before, South Africa has indeed become the best choice for mining diamond and gemstone veins.
After all, just like Du Yu said, if it is in several other countries, I am afraid that as long as they dig out the diamonds, it will not be long before the veins will not belong to them, and this kind of thing has been a lot in Du Yu's example just now.
"Then South Africa, let's take a chance to go over there to investigate the situation first, and then make a specific decision." Ye Feng thought for a while.
"Okay, then let's decide that for now." Du Yu nodded in response.
"Brother Du, Yezi, when the time comes, I will be counted as a part of the diamond and gem veins, anyway, my attitude is very resolute, and I will follow behind to pick up cheap dividends." Sun Zilong continued.
"Don't worry, you can't do without it!" Ye Feng and Du Yu smiled.
……
While speaking, the group had already gone up to the fourth floor.
The situation of the metal utensils collection on the fourth floor is still the same as the situation of the jade collection on the third floor, and there is basically no gain, but a katana from an island country in one of the shops has attracted Ye Feng's attention.
"The island general Okamura Ninji is saber, and the collection value is average." "A map is worth a lot of money."
A katana, two identification results, there is no doubt that there should be a sandwich in the blade or handle of this katana.
