Chapter 199: Eyes of Hell
Yi Xiaoge stretched out his hand and took this rare treasure, and the diamond attribute immediately popped out. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Eye of Hell (18 carats of Colorless Diamonds): A precious diamond of high grade that rises hundreds of kilometers below the volcanic surface of Ghost Island, its sparkling brilliance is a symbol of wealth and glamour. Additional Attributes: All banks under the World Business Union and all banks under the Royal Central Bank are willing to acquire the diamond tax-free for 5,000,000 gold coins.
"I'm rubbing! Million!!! ”
Yi Xiaoge suspected that something was wrong with his eyes, and when he looked closely, it was indeed six zeros. And looking at the attributes, it is actually produced on this island, is there a diamond specialty on this island? Oh my God, he couldn't even think about it.
"Mr. Joseph is really rich, this diamond of yours is enough to buy an entire royal fleet!"
The cost of ordinary materials for a Brilliant-class battleship is 100,000 gold coins, and if you use gold silk teak and modifications, it will cost nearly 150,000 gold coins. With this small stone in his hand, he could buy more than thirty warships.
"It's not that you have a lot of money, otherwise my islanders and I wouldn't have to risk robbing merchant ships at sea, and the World Business Alliance and the royal family would never buy diamonds from a pirate who is even righteous."
Yi Xiaoge pondered for a moment, he seemed to understand Joseph's intentions.
"Your Excellency, this diamond must have come from this volcano, right? So there are diamond veins on the island? If you reveal such a secret to me, are you not afraid that I will take your place? ”
Yi Xiaoge did not test Joseph, if he wanted to gain the full trust of the other party, he would be more impressed to get straight to the point.
Joseph took the diamond back and looked at it in the sunlight and said, "You guessed right, this diamond is from the volcano of Ghost Island, but it is not a vein. The reason I let you know about the existence of diamonds is because I need a partner, someone who can make my diamonds benefit the tens of thousands of islanders of Ghost Island, and who can put us in touch with the outside world. Your intellect and foresight are the most remarkable I have ever seen in all these years, and in fact I was not sure about the diamond until I took it out, but I did not see greed in your eyes when the diamond was in your hands. This proves that you are a professional businessman who values personal ability. ”
Yi Xiaoge is also drunk, and his feelings are most like that of a businessman. Joseph's purpose is exactly what Yi Xiaoge wants, he was still worried about how to maintain a cooperative relationship with Joseph, but now all the problems are solved.
Joseph has a wealth of diamonds, but in the current situation where the royal family is trying to eradicate pirates, a "righteous" pirate like him will never be able to trade diamonds directly to the only two major banks that have the ability to buy them, so he needs a reliable middleman who will not reveal the secrets of diamonds and has the ability to help him wash them. Yi Xiaoge happened to come into his sight at this time......
"Mr. Yi, let's go to the island and talk in detail."
Joseph took Yi Xiaoge to a cool and chic bamboo building to discuss cooperation, and it didn't take long for the two to hit it off.
Yi Xiaoge learned that the diamonds on Ghost Island did not exist in the form of ore veins as he imagined, but brought the diamonds under the stratum to the surface through volcanic magma that would erupt once every few months. At the same time, the diamonds brought by each eruption are not fixed, and there may be many, maybe only a little or no at all.
The most important thing is that only the local indigenous islanders know how to find those small but precious diamonds under the thick volcanic ash and magma cooling, Joseph buys everything he wants from Yi Xiaoge and pays Yi Xiaoge for the diamonds. In addition to obtaining high profits, Yi Xiaoge reached an island lease agreement with Joseph.
Yi Xiaoge signed a lease agreement with Joseph issued by the system, and he could build ports and base facilities on several islands designated by Joseph free of charge, but because it was a lease model, there was no transmission authority, which Yi Xiaoge was also helpless. He had to wait until he had the opportunity to buy it from Joseph.
As for Luo Meng's proposal to capture Ghost Island by force, Yi Xiaoge directly refused. He could see that Joseph had absolute authority among the local islanders, and this was probably not Joseph's ability alone, perhaps for several generations. In this way, Yi Xiaoge knocked it down, firstly, no islander would dig diamonds for himself, and secondly, they were not familiar with the sea here, and even if they sent the islanders over, it would take an extremely long time to figure it out.
In contrast, Yi Xiaoge's method is more advantageous now.
The next day, after Yi Xiaoge finished resupplying, he continued to move along the navigation chart in Luo Meng's hand under the personal exchange of supplies by Joseph. He had already asked a competent logistician to return to Noshima with his own letter on an ordinary merchant ship that Joseph had gotten, and Bugg would arrange for Mitheus's Blood Eagle Pirate Regiment to conduct formal trade with Joseph, only the subsidiary legions were not subject to the control of the carrying limit, and it was more convenient for them to trade than Yi Xiaoge. The diamonds obtained will be kept in the warehouse of the owner's villa without an island, and this thing must be exchanged for gold coins by Yi Xiaoge himself at the bank.
Joseph's diamonds range in size and size, with the small ones being worth only 100,000 gold coins, and the large one is said to have a 370-carat Vladma red diamond set in the scepter of the indigenous patriarch of Ghost Island. When Yi Xiaoge heard about it, there was nothing else in his mind, only the unknown number of zeros under the red diamond attribute appeared.
"Vladmar is a metaphor for eternal flames, both as a symbol of the flame-like sparkle of the red diamond as well as the never-ending blazing flames of the Ghost Island volcano."
Qin Feiyan explained about the super diamond that he had never met before, as if telling a long history, but Yi Xiaoge's mind had already flown into the distance.
It's hard to believe that this time when you encounter a storm but get a blessing in disguise, the game of Super Island Master makes Yi Xiaoge feel more and more difficult. The bizarre background and characters, and the super high AI make him have to pay more and more attention to it.
Is this a game or reality?
In the past few days, I have been very lucky, I don't know if it is the reason for the heavenly compass, there are few strong winds blowing, and there is no sudden downpour. Yi Xiaoge stared at the sea while enjoying the grapes and wine that Qin Feiyan brought to his mouth. A long delicate fishing rod in his hand swayed with the sea breeze, and the warm sun gently caressed everyone's heart, such a day is not too good.
"Your Majesty, we have already gone out of the largest known navigation area, and then we can only follow the navigation chart, do you have anything to say?" Luo Meng walked up to Yi Xiaoge and said.
"Roman...... You are still too young, and we must unswervingly take the modern sea route with the characteristics of the dictatorship of the Second Empire. Adhering to the development idea of three islands and one port as the basis, now is the critical moment, and your thinking must not be shaken! ”
"Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word? The second monk Luo Meng Zhang's puzzled expression.
"Nothing...... Don't care about these details, but suddenly remembered that the grass on his grave was more than two meters high. Yi Xiaoge squinted at the blue sea and said.
