As soon as Li Yao heard Li Yuanwu's description, it was crystal clear and extremely hard, and she inexplicably thought of diamonds, but she saw that the wooden box in the old man's hand was quite large, at least it could hold a plate or other porcelain, and she was a little unsure whether the box was a diamond.

Even if it's a rough diamond, it's hard to find such a large piece, right?

She was thinking about it, when Li Yuanwu beckoned to Li Yao and motioned for her to come over.

Li Yao got up and walked to Li Yuanwu's side and sat down, and Li Yuanwu waited for Li Yao to come over before opening the gift box with a proud face.

As soon as the gift box was opened, Li Yao was amazed by the contents inside.

She really guessed right, the gift Li Yuanwu said he wanted to give her was indeed a diamond, but it was much more than the diamond in Li Yao's cognition.

The contents of the box look like an ice cube at first glance, but it is much more dazzling and beautiful than the ice cube, it is shaped like an ice pick, that is, thick and large, about 20 centimeters long, the thick end can only be held by the palm of an adult's hand.

It is a large piece of rough diamond, roughly polished, and the surface is not smooth, but it reflects the sparkle in the sun.

Li Yao was excited, if this thing was placed in the previous life, I am afraid it would be a priceless treasure.

In her previous life, diamonds were almost the most popular gemstones for women, who was not allowed to buy a diamond ring when they got married, and the size of the diamond was also used to compare, a few carats of diamonds were tens of millions, such a large piece of diamond, if you put the previous life to say that it was a sensation all over the world, it is not an exaggeration.

It's just that there is no diamond cutting process in this era, and people at this time basically don't recognize this diamond, so this diamond is afraid that it is not very valuable at this time.

But even so, Li Yao could get such a large piece of diamond, which was enough to make her excited.

"Uncle, is this really for me?" Li Yao suddenly looked at Li Yuanwu with stars in his eyes.

"Well, this time I went to the north to shop for goods, and I saw a small town carving gems, jade, and porcelain with this thing, and the carved things were extremely beautiful and detailed. The hardness is so incredible that the locals call it diamonds, and I bought several of them from them, the largest of them all, and the original owner polished them into the shape of a weapon for self-defense. Li Yuanwu said.

Li Yuanwu said as he took the diamond out of the box, and at this time, the people in a large pavilion looked curiously at this thing called diamond.

Li Mingwei saw the thing clearly and hurriedly said: "Uncle, this thing is a bit like a crystal stone, is it really that hard?" ”

Li Yuanwu replied: "This is not a crystal. ”

As he spoke, he took the diamond like an ice pick, and randomly scratched it on a porcelain plate on the coffee table, and the porcelain plate immediately cracked, and the cracks were neat, like tofu cut by a knife.

Seeing this, the three young masters of the Li family took a breath, if it was crystal, they couldn't cut a porcelain plate like cutting tofu.

"This thing is amazing, too." Li Mingwei sighed.

The remaining two young masters of the Li family also nodded in agreement, and Taiwei Li, Li Zhengying, Guan Xinyue and Li Zhengjie also looked very surprised.

Li Yuanwu opened everyone's eyes, and handed the diamond to Li Yao and said, "Yao'er, take it, you can put it at home for viewing or self-defense in the future." ”

When Li Yao heard that Li Yuanwu asked her to use such a large piece of diamond as a weapon, the corners of her mouth twitched, but she still took it in surprise, such a large piece of rough diamond has weight, and it is heavy in Li Yao's hand, and it is very handy.

"Thank you, uncle." After receiving the people's things, Li Yao thanked him obediently.
