Chapter 290, Diamond Hunting
In the Kuslau diamond mining area of South Africa, Qin Yi is holding a shovel in his hand and a plastic bucket next to him, and he is struggling to dig in this huge diamond ore, loading some shining sand and gravel into the plastic bucket.
Then he carried a plastic bucket to the flushing area on the side, and rinsed it with a plate-like thing, as if he was looking for some treasure.
That's right, Qin Yi was looking for gems at this time, just like tens of thousands of tourists in the entire mining area, trying to find diamonds from this diamond mining area that was almost abandoned, and then give them to his lover, wife or something.
In the shade of a tree not far away, Wen Xueying looked at Qin Yi with a smile while drinking cold soda, as if she was cheering for Qin Yi.
"Pit daddy~"
"I've washed more than 10 barrels, not to mention diamonds, not even a single beautiful stone has been found."
Qin Yi wiped his sweat while washing, he hadn't done this kind of physical work for a long time, and he felt that his waist was about to be broken.
Next to Qin Yi, several young people like Qin Yi were also from China, and they couldn't help but complain while washing the mine boringly at this time.
"It's not, I don't know if it's the pit that started it, and what do you say that you have to wash out the diamonds yourself to have sincerity~ If there are really so many diamonds, will you dig them for us to play?"
"But it's really hard to understand why someone can wash out diamonds from time to time."
Several people shook their heads helplessly while washing.
"Haha~ I found a diamond, I found a diamond~"
While a few people were chatting, a person not far away laughed happily, holding a small diamond in the dirty wound, and looked carefully in the sun, his face full of smiles.
"Really?"
Under the shade of the trees on the side, a woman was playing in the virtual world with a virtual machine, and when she saw this difficulty, she screamed excitedly, and she hurried over.
Soon, holding the diamond, I excitedly gave my boyfriend a kiss.
"Damn~ Is there really a diamond?"
"What's going on, it looks like there's quite a lot of diamonds."
"Anyway, we can wash out the diamonds."
When the male compatriots around saw it, they suddenly worked harder to wash the diamonds one by one.
Qin Yi straightened his waist, looked around, and looked at his plastic bucket, looking very helpless.
"Haha~ I washed the diamond~"
Soon someone washed the diamond and screamed excitedly.
One after another, many people washed out the diamonds one after another, and they all shouted excitedly, happily winning the kiss of their female tickets.
"No, if there are really a lot of diamonds, it is impossible for South Africans to take them out for everyone to play with diamonds, and you can play for 100 yuan a day, how can there be such a good thing?"
Qin Yi frowned, he had been here for more than 2 hours, and he had been washing for a long time, not to mention diamonds, and he hadn't even found a few decent stones that could be used as souvenirs.
Just as Qin Yi was resting, a black man came to Qin Yi's side with a plastic bucket, pretending to wash it, and when Qin Yi squatted down to wash the mine, he also came to Qin Yi's side and said in a somewhat broken Chinese.
"Sir, do you need diamonds? Very cheap, a surprise for your girlfriend. ”
Qin Yi was slightly stunned, there was still this kind of operation, and then after thinking about it, he suddenly became enlightened, and instantly understood, why someone can always wash out diamonds, it turns out that it is not washed out by himself, but bought here.
This person is obviously an employee of this mining area, and he has come to peddle diamonds, of course, all this is obviously to deceive female compatriots not far away.
"How do you sell it?"
Qin Yi felt that he had washed enough, anyway, he just came out to experience it, it was almost enough, and it seemed to be a good choice to spend money to buy a diamond to make his wife happy.
So he also asked the price in a whisper, and at the same time his eyes looked around, and found that there were local black uncles talking quietly with people everywhere, obviously selling diamonds.
"A 0.2 carat diamond costs only 500 Chinese dollars, a 0.5 carat diamond costs 1,000 Chinese dollars, a 0.8 carat diamond costs 2,000 Chinese dollars, and a 1 carat diamond costs 5,000 Chinese dollars."
The man came to Qin Yi's side and whispered a salesman.
"How expensive, can it be cheaper."
After hearing this, Qin Yi raised his eyebrows.
Diamonds, in fact, can be regarded as the most successful marketing in history, there are actually a lot of diamonds in nature, and the vast majority of diamonds have no value, only gem-quality diamonds have value.
But after the marketing of these marketing gurus, the diamond and eternal love are connected, and the value of the diamond skyrockets.
Qin Yi is engaged in science and technology, and he knows very well that from a chemical point of view, the carbon element that forms the diamond cannot be more expensive than the metal element, but now when he hears this price, he immediately feels that it is too expensive.
"In reality, this price is actually not expensive at all, if you go to the market to buy a diamond ring, the price will definitely be more expensive, of course, the price is still negotiable."
The other party showed his snow-white teeth, and then bargained with Qin Yi very naturally.
"Do you have any bigger diamonds here, preferably pink diamonds, blue diamonds, etc., money is not a problem~"
When Qin Yi heard this, he immediately knew in his heart, knowing that they were also sitting on the ground and selling indiscriminately.
You must know that this thing itself is not valuable, and now the Chinese currency is an international currency, and its purchasing power is very strong in the world.
But since it's out to play, Qin Yi won't care about this, after thinking about it, since he wants to buy it, it must be to buy a bigger diamond, if he is rich, Qin Yi doesn't care about this.
"Yes~Yes, you can have as many diamonds as you want, any kind."
As soon as the other party heard Qin Yi's words, he suddenly smiled on his face, obviously he had met a big customer, Huaxia people are really rich, and there are really many local tyrants, and they can meet several local tyrants who don't care about money every day.
And this kind of local tyrant is their favorite person, because they often sell a diamond, and they get enough of a salary for several months.
"There's a blue diamond, and I'll give you the biggest."
Qin Yi smiled and said very locally.
"Haole~"
This person had an infinite intercom device on his head, and when he heard that Qin Yi wanted to buy a big diamond, he also quickly contacted the upper side, and the result was soon available.
"Sir, I have a 5-carat blue diamond here, which is very pure, and you can take it home for as long as 2 million Chinese dollars."
The man said to Qin Yi very quietly.
"5 carats, too small, is there more than 10 carats~"
When Qin Yi heard this, he frowned slightly, thought about it and asked.
Since you want to give it, of course, you have to send a larger one, and this 5-carat diamond is a bit out of your hand, so I still ask if there is a bigger one.
"Yes~ Yes, there is also a 12-carat high-purity blue diamond, but the price is very expensive, it costs 20 million Chinese dollars."
The man was slightly stunned, he actually met a super tyrant, and the 5-carat diamond was too small, so he hurriedly reported it to his superiors, and the result was quickly.
"12 carats? It's barely OK~"
"Can it be cheaper?"
Qin Yi also nodded when he heard this, 12 carats is almost the same, I didn't expect them to have it here, it is worthy of a diamond producing area, and it is estimated that these various diamonds are stored I don't know how much.
Thinking of his words earlier, Qin Yi also began to bargain with the other party, the 20 million Chinese dollars, there must be a lot of water in it.
"Sir, this price is already very fair, and I dare to guarantee that the purity of this diamond is very high, it is definitely worth the money, 20 million Chinese dollars is already the cheapest price, you must know that once, a blue diamond of about 10 carats was auctioned at Sotheby's for more than 30 million US dollars."
Hearing Qin Yi's words, the other party shook his head again and again, saying that there was no room for price reduction, but his eyes betrayed him, and Qin Yi could see that he really wanted to do this business.
So it's also in the face of leisure, constantly bargaining with the other party, a little bit of bargaining.
"18 million, now, no matter how low it is, I really have no way to call the shots."
After more than ten minutes, the price was cut to 18 million, and the other party looked like he was going to jump off the building.
"Okay, 18 million is 18 million, how to pay?"
Qin Yi was also a little dry-mouthed.
"I'll go get the diamonds, after you see the diamonds, you can pay again, we accept transfers and remittances from your major banks in Huaxia, any bank can."
Seeing that Qin Yi agreed, the other party was also full of smiles, this deal was done, his commission was extremely rich, and he sighed again in his heart, Huaxia people are really rich.
However, doing business is very honest, first look at the goods, and then trade, I have to say that the operator of this mining area is still very credible.
Soon the man left in a hurry, and within a few minutes, he came to Qin Yi's hand again and quietly put a blue diamond into Qin Yi's hand.
Qin Yi took the diamond and looked at it carefully, originally thought that the 10-carat diamond should not be big, but he didn't expect it to be the size of a pigeon's egg, it seems that the purity is still very good.
"Report the account to me, and I'll let someone send you money~"
Qin Yi nodded with satisfaction and said to him.
"Okay, sir~"
The other party lifted part of his clothes, and then an ICBC account number appeared.
Qin Yi remembered the number at a glance, then took out his mobile phone to take a photo and sent a message to his secretary Lin Fang.
"Go back and add many functions of the mobile phone to the virtual machine, and completely eliminate the mobile phone."
Qin Yi looked at his phone and thought.
"Sir, we have received your remittance, this diamond belongs to you, I wonder if you need any other diamonds?"
A few minutes later, the other party received the money, and the smile on his face became even bigger, and he continued to sell it.
"No, one diamond is enough."
Qin Yi said with a smile.
"Okay, I wish you a happy trip~"
When the other party heard this, he left very interestingly and continued to look for the next purpose to sell diamonds.
Qin Yi took the diamond and continued to wash it in the water, and then jumped up very excitedly and said.
"Haha, I found the diamond, I found the diamond~"
Then he holds the blue diamond in his hand high and reflects the beautiful blue in the sunlight.
"I'm going to ~ how big a diamond, or a blue diamond? Local tyrant~"
The person who knew the market on the side couldn't help but look at Qin Yi carefully.
Wen Xueying, who was sitting in the shade of a tree, immediately screamed excitedly when she saw the diamond in Qin Yi's hand, and immediately walked up in a hurry.
