"Mr. Zhou, this is the first diamond grading result. ”

The appraiser took out the slip of paper from the appraisal instrument, No. 001 diamond, diamond weight 5.06 carats, color F, clarity VS1, cut EX, polished EX, symmetrical EX, fluorescent N...... The market price is $315,600, or $252,480 if sold to the Bounty Hunters Guild.

The color of the diamond ranges from D to Z, with the higher the letter in front indicating the purer the color, and the color begins to turn yellow after H.

As for the cut EX, VG what, it is excellent and verygood, which are perfect and excellent, respectively.

Clarity VS1, which means Very/slightly/included, has very few impurities (invisible to the naked eye), and the highest clarity is FL, which means flawless, flawless, this kind of diamond is extremely rare and can only be seen at diamond exhibitions.

The fluorescence means that the diamond will emit some blue or yellow light under ultraviolet irradiation, and N stands for none, that is, there is no fluorescence, because fluorescence is generally not visible under visible light, so it generally does not affect the price of diamonds.

The second one is a little inferior, although the diamond weighs 6.12 carats, but because the color is only L, the clarity is average, and the final price is less than 100,000 US dollars.

The appraiser appraised one by one, until one of them came out of nowhere, "Oh, my/God, how/excellent!"

Twelfth diamond, carat weight 5.20 carats, colour D, clarity FL (flawless), cut EX, polished EX, symmetrical EX, fluorescent S (intense blue light) ...... In the end, the appraiser offered a sky-high price of $1.68 million.

Diamonds with a clarity of more than 5 carats or FL are extremely rare, all of its attributes are perfect, except for blue fluorescence, many diamond lovers like diamonds without fluorescence, thinking that diamonds are the purest, but there are also people who like blue diamonds, because that kind of diamond represents romance.

The price of $1.68 million is only estimated according to the industry's usual valuation method, but if you meet a diamond collector who is looking for perfection, it is definitely more than that. The best blue diamonds with perfect properties are absolutely invaluable in the market.

Even Zhou Jian was reluctant to sell it for a while, and eighty percent of Sun Deguang's 28 diamonds came from the collection of a diamond lover, and they were definitely not produced in a diamond mine, otherwise the quality would not be so high.

It took the appraiser a short time to identify all 28 diamonds, and the final price was $6.98 million, and after discounting, the Bounty Hunters Association gave a purchase price of $5.59 million.

After hearing this price, Rao is Zhou Jian had already been prepared, and he couldn't help but be excited, which is equivalent to more than 30 million yuan!

"Sir, are you going to sell them all?"

Zhou Jian hesitated for a moment, he really wanted to keep the most perfect diamond, he felt that it was too tyrannical to sell such a precious diamond to the Bounty Hunters Association in a similar wholesale form, but now he needed money to invest.

The appraiser saw Zhou Jian's hesitation, and suggested: "The Bounty Hunters Association also accepts pawn business, if you are not willing to sell, you can mortgage the diamond here, and redeem it in the future, with an annual interest rate of 7%, simple interest, and a term of three years, which will not wait for expiration." ”

Zhou Jian calculated, 7% is only more than 100,000 US dollars, barely acceptable, even if he redeems it in three years, the price of this diamond will only increase to the same price as the market price, which is not too much of a loss. So he said, "Okay, this FL diamond pawn, and sell the rest." ”

The appraiser showed Zhou Jian the appraisal certificate, and then gave Zhou Jian a diamond VIP card from the Bounty Hunter Bank, saying: "Because the amount is relatively large, the transfer period is 24 hours, and the transaction can be completed at that time." This Diamond VIP Card can be used for an overdraft of $1,000,000 at Bounty Hunter Bank, and in addition to that, the card can enjoy a 20% discount and priority on all property purchases under the BH consortium. ”

Zhou Jian nodded, although he could think of the value of this card and the status it symbolized with his knees, but it didn't mean much to Zhou Jian, and he didn't plan to live in the United States for a long time.

Zhou Jian walked out of the appraisal center in a happy mood, and Andy seemed to have received the news and was already waiting outside, at this time there was an Asian girl in her twenties beside him, I don't know which country she was from.

"Mr. Zhou, are you still satisfied with the appraisal results?"

"Very satisfied, thank you Mr. Martin. ”

"You're welcome, let me introduce you, this is Lucy from Singapore, the translator prepared by our association for Mr. Zhou's two-day trip, and her Chinese is very good. ”

"Hello, I'm Lucy. Lucy said in Chinese, her Chinese with a Lingnan Hong Kong Island accent, sounding a little squeamish.

"Hello, I don't need a translator, thank you. Zhou Jian shook his hand, he really didn't need a translator, and the most important thing was that he had the secret of the ghost slayer on him, and it was inconvenient for a translator to follow him.

The female translator named Lucy was obviously a little disappointed, she had already heard about Zhou Jian's identity, strength and wealth from Andy's mouth.

Andy said, "Doesn't Mr. Zhou need a tour guide?"

"I don't have to. Zhou Jian refused with a smile.

"Well, I've already booked a room for Mr. Zhou at the WYN Hotel, I don't think Mr. Zhou will refuse this time. "Andy personally arranged all this in order to have a good relationship with Zhou Jian, even if Zhou Jian is not from the Huaxia Guwu family, it doesn't matter, he has already learned the total amount of this transaction from the appraiser, if Zhou Jian can bring such a big business every time, his supervisor will get a very considerable commission.

The WYN Hotel is an industry owned by the American mafia, with a six-star standard, and it often costs thousands of dollars to stay in it for a night, which is only a standard room, and if it is a luxury suite, it even costs seven or eight thousand dollars a night.

However, this luxurious suite is rarely open to the public, and it is used most of the time to entertain VIPs.

Zhou Jian thought about it, then nodded and said, "Okay, then thank you, Mr. Martin." ”

"So I'll send you a car?" asked Andy.

"No, I'll just go myself. Zhou Jian planned to go back to the hotel where his deity was located first, so he didn't want Andy's people to follow.

"Alright then, I'll take you back to the underground bank. ”

"Thank you. ”

Zhou Jian returned to the underground bank with the car and came to the hall, where Linda had been waiting for a long time.

After seeing Zhou Jian, she exaggeratedly said: "My Huaxia hero, you are finally back." ”

Hearing the title of Huaxia Hero, Zhou Jian felt a little crying and laughing, and he said, "Are you still waiting here?"

"Didn't you say I'm waiting for you? Why, it's a terrible thing to see me?"

"Of course not. But I've got my business done, I'm just afraid that you have your own business to do. "What Zhou Jian means is that I don't need you to accompany me anymore, you can go, although Zhou Jian admits that it is a very pleasant thing to be accompanied by a hot Western beauty, but it is inevitably inconvenient for her to switch incarnations with her.

However, Linda obviously did not have this awareness, she said excitedly: "Don't worry, I've been too idle lately! In addition to completing my graduation thesis, you know that writing an archaeological thesis doesn't need to do experiments, just look up the materials and write your own opinions,"

In the United States, the winter break starts very early, because Christmas is equivalent to their Spring Festival, and it is already December, and Linda is about to go on winter vacation.

"You're not familiar with Las Vegas, I can be your tour guide and translator, I grew up in Las Vegas. ”

"Uh...... Actually, I can roughly understand what you are saying, and as for traveling, I don't plan to go out and play. ”

"Don't you Huaxia have a saying that guests are as they are done? Since Qingyun handed you over to me, I will arrange it. ”

Zhou Jian was speechless, where is this, this Yanma is too enthusiastic, so he can't stand it, "What, Andy has already arranged a room for me, you don't need to arrange it, oh, this is a VIP card." ”

Afraid that Linda would not believe it, Zhou Jian showed the VIP card that Andy gave him, with this card, he could go to the hotel to exchange for the room key of the room he was in.

"It's ...... Oh, my God. Linda stared at the card in Zhou Jian's hand like a panda, and her big blue eyes suddenly widened, "The VIP card of the luxury suite on the roof of the Viana Hotel, you actually got this thing." ”

"Uh, a luxury suite? How much does that cost a night?"

"Nine thousand dollars! This is still the price after the discount with the Bounty Hunter Bank Diamond VIP Card, and the average person will live for more than 10,000 yuan. ”

"It's expensive. Zhou Jian secretly said to himself, 9,000 US dollars doesn't sound like anything, but it is equivalent to 60,000 yuan, and the down payment is almost this price when buying a small house in a remote city. In China, how many people struggle to buy a house, but for the rich, this amount of money is barely enough for them to spend one night, which is the gap between the upper class and the lower society.

However, the Bounty Hunters Association brought them at least $1 million in income this time, and spending less than $10,000 to enjoy themselves for a night is nothing.

Of course, Linda didn't know this, she continued: "And this luxury suite is not something you can live in with money, it is generally used as a special room for the mafia to welcome VIPs, in Las Vegas, all the hotels under the mafia consortium, there will be no more than ten rooms of the same level, and the mafia VIPs are a lot, so most of the time you can't book such a luxury suite." ”

Speaking of which, Linda's eyes were already shining. However, she also wondered in her heart, how could the young Zhou Jian have such a big face, could he be a great figure in Huaxia?

"I see, I guess it's winter now, it's off-season, and the hotel rooms of the mafia consortium happen to be a lot empty. Zhou Jian said a few perfunctory words, he thought that Linda should have no reason to follow him this time, but he didn't expect Linda's next sentence to almost make him hit his head on the door frame.

What Linda said was, "Shall I live with you?"
