My Strength Does Not Allow Me to Low-key

Chapter 199: Skyrocketing price

Sutra is a historical city where diamonds are polished and processed. The history of diamond processing has been nearly a thousand years. This Calabi has been in the diamond business for decades. If you count the generations of his ancestors, their family runs the business. The diamond business has a history of hundreds of years.

But he had never seen such a big rough diamond, he had only heard of it in the legend.

When the rough diamond that was forced to be dedicated to the Queen of England’s "Mountain of Light", India’s national treasure, was discovered, it weighed only eight hundred carats. Eight hundred carats were converted into an ordinary unit of measurement, which is 160 grams. Two or two, about the same weight as the diamond in front of me.

Although I haven't gotten started yet, Calabi and the diamond have been handed over for decades. The size and weight of the diamond can be estimated with a glance.

At this time, looking at the diamond in front of him, he could no longer breathe. He was breathing heavily, and his eyeballs began to turn red. The diamond was obviously polished simply. Although the shape was not regular, it was still a piece. The oval shape of the egg.

What makes Calabi the most uncontrollable is that the light transmittance of this rough diamond is very important to know the quality of a diamond. This rough diamond has not been specially polished, even in many places. It also carries the original mark. If it is processed in his factory, polished and polished, it is definitely the top one.

Such a large and complete diamond can still have such a good quality. This diamond can definitely be said to be the best found in recent years, and it can even be said to be the top diamond ever seen in Calabi’s career.

"Mr. Xiao, can I take a look?"

Calabi gasped and asked Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng smiled and nodded. No problem, he pushed the original drill in front of Calabi. Calabi almost jumped up and hit someone with no anger when he saw his movements.

This is a rare top product, are you so casual? What if it falls to the ground? Although diamonds are the hardest substance in the world, they are very brittle. A smaller one is fine. Although such a large one will not break when it falls on the ground, if there is a crack, the loss will be great.

But when he looked at the diamond in front of him, Calabi didn’t care about being angry with Xiao Feng. He quickly picked up the diamond, took out the gloved magnifying glass from the small box beside him, and began to observe carefully. For a long time, this guy took a breath and put down the diamond in his hand.

"I didn't see the laser code on the diamond?"

In the modern diamond industry, in order to continue to monopolize diamond transactions and control prices, De Beers, Rio Tinto, and Alrosa have formed an alliance. They will laser code each diamond produced to prevent counterfeiting. , Anti-theft, and lost diamond jewelry, because of the laser barcode, it is not easy to sell in the second-hand market. Secondly, it is also to control the diamond transaction. The diamonds currently traded on the market without the laser code will be regarded as blood diamonds. Or diamonds produced in black mines in other mining areas are not accepted by the mainstream diamond industry.

If such diamonds appear on the market, practitioners can choose to call the police and block the circulation of diamonds produced by other black mines on the market, making it easier for the giants to control the market.

However, on the black market, this kind of rough diamond without a barcode is a sought-after object. Just because there is no barcode, this kind of diamond is equivalent to having no ID card and is not easy to be traced, so it is even more affected by many money laundering organizations. Or the favor of drug lords or corrupt politicians.

Because such diamonds do not have to worry about being tracked, they have relatively strong liquidity capabilities and are popular on the black market.

The Calabi family has been in the diamond business for hundreds of years. It is definitely not just a legitimate diamond transaction, but also a black market transaction. Even the diamonds circulated to the black market through his hands are worth tens of millions of dollars every year, but he has never I have seen a rough diamond of such a good appearance and such a big size.

Thinking of the profit that this rough diamond might bring, Calabi couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then looked up at Xiao Feng who was sitting on the opposite side with a smile. He suddenly had an impulse to eat black.

This Chinese boy is only one person. If you kill him, can you swallow this rough diamond?

But when I turned my head and thought, is it an ordinary person who dared to come to Marat alone to find himself, and took out such a large piece of rough diamond without a laser mark?

Think about it again this person is Liu Jin. According to Deliuka, the little demon who had just risen in Calabi's heart quickly died down.

Who is Liu Jin who was the most popular arms dealer in the past, can be wanted by the CIA, and is still alive and kicking now, can he be an ordinary person?

Such people might have the Russian mafia behind them. Who is the Russian mafia? Is that a stubble that even the Italian Mafia is afraid of? The most ruthless underground force in America right now!

And is this Chinese really that simple? Such a large rough diamond was made from the mining area in Siberia. If you think about Liu Jin and the Russian mafia, there may be a relationship between them.

So Calabi’s crooked thoughts that just came up didn’t last for more than thirty seconds and immediately died away~www.ltnovel.com~ Anyway, you can make money with your hands, so why bother to stab the hornet's nest.

"Um, Mr. Xiao, as a credible businessman, Calabi can say very responsibly that your diamond is indeed top quality. If you want to sell it, at what price?"

Such a big diamond, as long as it is polished well and cut into small pieces, then you can make millions when you change hands. Why bother to provoke those madmen for a little money? Calabi quickly understood the account, so he started to inquire directly.

"My diamond, I also measured it before I came here. It weighs 880 carats and is of top quality. A diamond of this size has not been discovered in recent years. The most recent one should be in 2015. The “Our Light” found in the Bozwana Karlovy Mine, the diamond weighing 1109 carats, was successfully auctioned in London in 2017, and the transaction price was 53 million U.S. dollars. Well, my one, although not as big as that, I This is a rough diamond and does not have a laser logo. It should be more popular on the black market, so I think this one should also be worth 53 million U.S. dollars."

Since he was here to buy diamonds, Xiao Feng of course made preparations early. During this time, he studied the diamond market thoroughly, so he gave such a quotation. Of course, the quotation is obviously high. Just to wait for Calabi to bargain.
