Chapter 316: A Special Wedding (2)

Sure enough, the treasure of this old Fengxiang Silver Building is extraordinary! The gemstone is dark green, flawless, with a warm light, a gold ring set with a hollow style, and a delicate peony flower inlaid with emeralds on the left and right. At first glance, it is the classic style of Shanghai Lao Fengxiang, the kind that will not be discounted for 360 days a year.

The clerk began to introduce: "Sir, Miss, these three emerald rings are carefully made by the senior craftsmen of our Shanghai head office, and the emerald gems on the rings are all from Colombia, you must know that Colombian emeralds have always been the best emeralds." Those weighing more than 2 carats are already rare, and those weighing more than 5 carats are even more rare. The emeralds on these three rings are 17 carats, 19 carats, and 25 carats. Exactly the treasure of the treasures. It is worn on the fingers of Mr. and Miss, which is the most extravagant. ”

Xiao Weiguo also knows that emeralds are very ancient gemstones, which have been loved since ancient times, and can connect ancient Chinese and Western civilizations. Its name is derived from the Old Persian word meaning green gemstone. Legend has it that 6,000 years ago, it was sacrificed to the goddess in ancient Babylon. Obviously, the long history of emerald has endowed it with nobility and various legends. Emeralds are extremely rare in the world. It was once estimated that only one in every 1 million beryl minerals is an emerald, so emeralds are a millionth of the millionth of green gemstones. Compared to other gemstones, the geological conditions in which emeralds grow are more complex and special. Emeralds with high color and purity are even rarer, so emeralds have always been the exclusive favor of royal families.

Xiao Weiguo saw that Anna and Bai Wanrou's eyes were shining, indeed, what woman would not like such a gemstone ring? Emerald gemstone rings, in particular, look gorgeous and graceful.

Xiao Weiguo laughed and said, "Okay, man." Can you take out these three rings and take a look? I want to try them on before I know if I want to buy them! ”

The clerk said with some embarrassment: "This, sir, this is the treasure of our town store, worth 10,000 gold, if you take it out in case it is damaged, it will not be easy to do!" ”

Xiao Weiguo said a little unhappily: "What? Do you think we won't be able to afford these three rings? How do you do business! Suddenly, Xiao Weiguo's Wang Ba anger frightened the shopkeeper's legs trembling. The shopkeeper had no choice but to set his sights on the shopkeeper. After all, he can't do such a thing.

Although the shopkeeper didn't know Xiao Weiguo. But it can be seen that these three young men and women are definitely not ordinary, especially the Chinese woman, who is from a big family at first glance, maybe she is the child of a powerful person, and Xiao Weiguo looks like a rich man at first glance. So the fat shopkeeper hurriedly ran over and made compensation to Xiao Weiguo. He didn't want this big gold lord to run away, to be honest, those three emerald rings, although they were the treasures of the town. However, no one bought it after more than a year, for the simple reason that its price is too high! The smallest emerald ring costs 100,000 oceans, and the largest one costs 200,000 oceans. And how many people can afford such a price?

You must know that at this time, 1 silver yuan can buy 16 catties of rice; pork 2 jiao - 2 jiao 3 cents per catty; 1 silver yuan can buy 4-5 catties of pork; During this period, "one dollar" was equivalent to about 30 yuan in the mid-90s of the 20th century, which means that the smallest ring was worth more than 3 million, which is equivalent to the value of an airplane.

The fat shopkeeper smiled and then reprimanded the clerk: "How did you do it!" The customer is God. This gentleman looks like a gentleman, and we must treat him with courtesy. It is also a reasonable request for customers to try it on. Okay, stand aside, and I'll receive this gentleman. ”

The shopkeeper drooped his head and walked to the side. At this time, the fat shopkeeper said to Xiao Weiguo with his fat face with a particularly bright smile: "Sir, this way, these three rings can't be tried on." But Mr. and Miss I have extraordinary temperaments, and I think they are famous people, so I made an exception! We also hope that these three treasures can be bought back by someone with temperament like Mr. ”

Xiao Weiguo looked at the fat shopkeeper's fat face, his facial features were squeezed together, and he even narrowed his eyes when he laughed. However, he knows that such a smiling tiger is easy for customers to think that he has taken advantage! Although these three rings are precious, the price is indeed a little high, so Xiao Weiguo is ready to suppress the price.

It wasn't until the fat shopkeeper carefully opened the glass cabinet, took out one of the rings, and put it on Xiao Weiguo's hand, that he found that this kind of ring really lived up to its name. In his previous life, Xiao Weiguo had never seen such a precious ring with his own eyes, so he couldn't help but take a closer look. Although Anna was born in a well-off family, she had never seen such a precious ring, and the excitement in her heart was needless to say. However, Bai Wanrou was born in everyone, but she has seen a lot of precious jewelry, so she can see that these three rings are indeed precious, and she is also looking forward to having such a ring.

After Xiao Weiguo finished reading this ring, he put it on Anna's finger, and sure enough, wearing the emerald ring, Anna's whole temperament changed, as if she was from a royal family in Europe, and she was full of noble temperament. Even the fat shopkeeper couldn't stop nodding.

Xiao Weiguo nodded and said, "Okay, this ring is really worthy of our Miss Anna!" Shopkeeper, take out the other two rings, I'll have to buy them back today!" “

The shopkeeper picked up the other two emerald rings and put them on Xiao Weiguo's hand, and said happily: "Okay, sir, take it!" ”

Xiao Weiguo personally put one of the two rings, a 19-carat one, on Bai Wanrou's finger, and then put the largest one on his finger. Then he said to the fat shopkeeper: "I want these three rings, but your price is indeed higher, I think a seven-percent discount is about the same!" ”

The fat shopkeeper stretched out his thumb and said, "Mr. is really good eyesight, these three rings are matched with three, it's really amazing!" However, this price can only be discounted by 20% at most, otherwise we will lose money! ”

Xiao Weiguo said with a smile: "Among the four conditions that determine the quality of a diamond, diamond size, color, clarity and cut, only cut is a factor that can artificially determine the grade of a diamond, so cut can affect the price of a diamond by 40%. Although the three emeralds on the wedding are very good in color and clarity, the cut is average. Even the perfect cut is still a thin line, and on the basis of the perfect cut, there are diamonds with eight arrows and eight hearts, and diamonds with eight arrows and eight hearts require a higher degree of symmetry than a perfect cut diamond. Eight arrows and eight hearts of diamonds, from the top you can see eight arrows that are exactly the same and symmetrically arranged, from the bottom you can see eight identical and symmetrically arranged hearts, so it is also called Cupid cut. So these three emerald rings are indeed not the best! Naturally, your price is a little higher! ”

After listening to Xiao Weiguo's words, the fat shopkeeper knew that this person was still an expert, and he had never heard of anything himself, so he had to sell the three emerald diamonds at a seven-percent discount according to Xiao Weiguo's request. In fact, where does Xiao Weiguo understand diamonds, he just used the words often used in TV commercials to fool the shopkeeper, but he didn't expect it to be successful! (To be continued.) )
