"Daliang, you really have to consider hiring an assistant." Looking at the diamonds and sea cucumbers placed in front of him, as well as the people who were checking these things, Liu Peng, who had his arm around his neck with a plaster band, sighed and said.

"I always thought you were just lucky enough to find those things. But now it seems that you should have accumulated a lot of experience in this area, and at the same time intend to actually pursue this profession. ”

"If you have a career plan in this area, then many things will definitely not work on your own like this, otherwise there will be problems in the long run."

"You have a point, but it's not easy to find a reliable agent." Hearing this, Liang En also sighed helplessly, it was not that he hadn't thought about it, but many things were not just thought about.

"That's right, recruiting people is indeed a bit more complicated than treasure hunting." Liu Peng nodded with affection, and then looked at the masters in his shop.

Soon, all the inspections were over. According to the results of the test, both diamonds and sea cucumbers are good things, and it is not difficult to get a shot.

"Sea cucumbers are still according to the old rules, I will help you find buyers, and then take a percentage according to the probability, if there is no accident, about 1kg can be sold for about 2,000 euros. But this diamond—" Looking at the rough diamond, Liu Peng frowned solemnly.

"To be honest, although the current diamond consumer market is actually a little uncertain, a large transparent diamond like this can still be sold for a high price, but you have to find a professional cutter in Brussels for rough cutting."

"Because the global diamond market has been completely monopolized, although your rough can be seen to be an old rough stone, you don't need to provide a series of proofs, but only through their channel cutting can you ensure that your diamond has the greatest profit."

"Can you find a reliable diamond cutter over there?" Liang En picked up the diamond on the table and looked at it, then put it down and asked.

"Yes, they are very reliable and can register a reasonable and legal identity for the processed diamonds. However, the corresponding processing costs will be more expensive, and only rough diamonds from the previous year will be processed. Liu Peng nodded.

"Then please." Liang Enlai had probably inquired about this aspect before, so he quickly signed a contract for agency business, and when he signed it, Liu Peng transferred 110,000 euros to him.

"This is the money from your last ambergris auction, and it just arrived yesterday. It's just that I didn't call you yesterday when I heard that you were coming, and I can give you this money just when you come today. ”

"It looks like the last auction was pretty good." Liang En nodded, and then said goodbye to Liu Peng and got on the plane, but he did not go back to his residence, but went to Venice, the water city.

He certainly didn't come to the city for tourism, but to check a list of things that had been ordered before. Because the series of things he wanted was too niche, it took a lot of effort to find the factory he needed in Italy.

Venice is divided into two parts, of which the familiar water city Venice is actually built on an old town located on an archipelago in the lagoon, and the overall Renaissance style is dominant.

The new town is located on the northern coast, with a 19th-century style in the centre and some more modern buildings on the periphery, but not too many high-rise buildings.

And Venice, which Liang En is going to this time, is located in the northeastern part of the mainland of Venice City, a new industrial area, which is full of new small and micro enterprises.

"Good afternoon, Master Lu, is what I want ready?" After entering a small factory, Liang En bypassed the bustling machining shop, then pushed open the door to the room and greeted the balding old man sitting behind his desk.

The owner of the factory, like Liang En, was a Chinese who had settled abroad, and when he was a young man, the factory went bankrupt and he was laid off.

Because he knew foreign languages and had a family to support, he chose to go south to work, and finally saved a family business in Italy under a series of coincidences, which is the machinery factory in front of him.

The people in the factories are mainly immigrants or foreign workers, and they have also tried to recruit locals, but unfortunately they can't recruit a few even if the wages are not low.

Compared to the local Italians, these newcomers and foreigners are obviously much more industrious, but unfortunately because of a certain exclusion of foreigners, their business can only be described as average.

Liang En's business this time should be their biggest business in the past year, so when Master Lu found out that the person who came was Liang En, he immediately became enthusiastic.

"Mr. Liang, the things you ordered have basically been manufactured." Master Lu stood up and said with a smile, and then walked in the direction of the warehouse with him.

"Seriously, it's true that what you're buying is a little too niche." On the way to the warehouse, Master Lu began to talk about some of the circumstances of the business.

"There are a lot of them that we can't find a corresponding finished product, so we have to make them ourselves, so the cost will naturally become very high——"

"I know, you called me at the time and asked if you could replace it with some spot, but I refused." Liang En nodded lightly. "After all, my customers have specific requirements, so it's better to do it according to the customer's requirements."

"Understand, after all, we are business people." Master Lu nodded, his mechanical processing factory itself was engaged in small batch order production, so he didn't feel anything strange about those strange requirements.

In his opinion, as long as it is not illegal, there is nothing that cannot be done if the money is enough, and compared with the things he has done before, these ordered by Liang En are not the most outrageous batch at all.

Soon the two of them came to the door of a large warehouse. With a rumbling sound, the warehouse door opened, revealing all sorts of things inside.

"This is the batch of things you want, two 75-horsepower, movable pot camel machines imitating the 50s of China and two 10-horsepower pot camel machines imitating the 50s of China."

As Master Lu uncovered one dust cloth after another, the machine below was revealed.

"According to your requirements, these steam engines use older technologies and materials, such as casting instead of cutting, reducing forging, and replacing plastics and newer alloys with other materials."

"The most important thing is that the instrument on the top, as well as all the text and patterns, have been replaced with traditional Chinese style, which is more complicated than the manufacture of cylinders, connecting rods, etc."

"Because we have neither the machines nor the technology for those things, we can only buy them from stock and transform them."

"Yes, these things are very good." After inspecting these machines with his alchemy knowledge, Liang En nodded with satisfaction.

These machines made of brass, steel, glass, and more glisten in the sunlight shining in from the doorway, displaying an eerie, steampunk-style beauty.

"These things are fine, let me see the other things."
