Chapter 437 Gem Trading Market
Yun Ruolan smiled, "I don't need it today. When I left the country, didn't I bring a few thousand dollars with me? The trading market is basically high-end goods, not expensive."

Susie nodded and took her bag, and went out with Yun Ruolan to ask Zhu Zhicheng and the others to go to the market together.

Yun Ruolan specially booked a hotel that is closer to the market. She used to stay here every time she came here. The taxi took only a quarter of an hour before arriving at the gate of the gem trading market.

You can see the bustling flow of people inside from the door, which is very lively.

Zhu Zhicheng stood by Su Qian's side, and Xu Chengcai followed behind Su Qian.

Yun Ruolan's two bodyguards also followed closely.

Susie and Yun Ruolan walked all the way in, looking at the stalls next to them from time to time.

Yun Ruolan whispered: "This place mainly produces red sapphires, spinels, moonstones, garnets, and amethysts."

"Not only these, because this is the main gem market in Asia, there are also some businessmen who will get diamonds from South Africa and Australia to sell."

Susie nodded while looking at it. She planned to buy some diamonds, and the broken diamonds can be used to inlay emeralds and precious stones.

Better diamonds can also be used to set rings and necklaces. It is impossible for a jewelry store to have no diamonds.

Yun Ruolan said again: "Let's take a look here today, and tomorrow I will take you to a place to look at high-end goods."

Susie turned her head and smiled at her, "Thank you, Aunt Yun."

She couldn't help feeling a little lucky, if Yun Ruolan hadn't brought this with her, she wouldn't know how long she would have been groping for all these ways to buy goods alone.

Soon Susie stopped in front of a stall.

There are many ruby ​​particles neatly placed on this booth, all of which are cut.

Susie took a look and found that they were not very big, and it is estimated that only a few of them were more than two carats.

However, the color of the stones in this lot is good.

The rubies in Mandian are the best quality rubies in the world.

Susie picked up the largest one and looked at it carefully. The color of this one reached pigeon blood red, and its purity was also high. It looked very beautiful in her hand.

She took out the magnifying glass she brought to look carefully.

Seeing that she seemed to want to buy it, Yun Ruolan asked the stall owner in Mandarin, "Has this piece been heated?"

In order to communicate with these stall owners, she learned a few simple words, in short, these are enough to talk about the price.

The stall owner shook his head, "No, it's all natural."

Although Susie didn't understand what the two of them said, she had several pieces of ruby ​​jewelry in her previous life, so she knew very well that many gemstones would undergo heat treatment.

After ruby ​​heat treatment, the color is more vivid.

Susie took a closer look, and found that the gem did not have the characteristics of being heated. She nodded and looked at Yun Ruolan, "This one is pretty good, I want it, please tell me, how much is this one?"

Yun Ruolan asked about the price, and the stall owner said, "This one is of very good quality, it has 1.88 carats, and it costs at least [-]."

Yun Ruolan took the gem and looked at it carefully, then shook her head, "One thousand is not worth it, this gem is not clear enough, how about it, we'll take five hundred."

While speaking, Yun Ruolan stretched out her hand and gestured.

The stall owner shook his head desperately, "No, no, it's too cheap. I even received more than this price from the mining area."

The two haggled for a while, and finally Yun Ruolan asked Susie in a low voice, "It's still 750 US dollars, and he won't take any less. How about it, do you want it?"

Susie has no idea about the price of gemstones at this time, but she has a deep understanding of the purchasing power of US dollars in this era. After all, a luxury car can be bought for tens of thousands of dollars.

She asked Yun Ruolan in a low voice, "Do you think this price is acceptable?"

Yun Ruolan said: "It's almost the same market price, and it didn't take advantage of it."

"However, gemstones are not like emeralds. You can see whether something is good or bad at a glance, and the price is very transparent."

Susie nodded, "Okay, I want it."

Susie opened her small bag, counted out $750, and handed it to the stall owner.

The stall owner counted the money, and then took a small flannel bag to pack the gems for Susie.

Susie put the gem into her bag, and went shopping with Yun Ruolan.

After walking a short distance, Susie saw another stall selling diamonds.

Most of them were broken diamonds under one carat, Yun Ruolan was in charge of bargaining, Susie bought hundreds of broken diamonds, and the price was not expensive.

Yun Ruolan also bought a lot, and the amount of broken diamond inlaid jewelry is usually very large.

They walked together, Yun Ruolan and Susie bought together, and Susie bought a few more unheated sapphires, and the quality of the sapphires from Mandian is also good.

Then I walked to a stall, and there were many fine rubies about the size of rice grains. Yun Ruolan negotiated the price, and together with Su Xi, they both collected a lot. It is estimated that there were hundreds of rubies, and the total cost was not much.

After shopping until it was almost dark, everyone went back to the hotel.

There is a safe storage service at the front desk of the hotel, which is specially for these merchants who purchase gemstones. Yun Ruolan has stored them before, and the service is very good, and there has never been a case of losing things.

The two put today's booty, a few small flannel bags, into the safe, reset the password, and then went to the second floor of the hotel for dinner.

The law and order here is not very good. After eating, a few people dare not go out for a walk, so they go back to their room to rest.

Yun Ruolan is very good at making arrangements, the room on the left is her bodyguard, the room on the right is her assistant, and on the opposite side are the rooms of Zhu Zhicheng and Xu Chengcai.

Both Zhu Zhicheng and Xu Chengcai were greatly shocked today. Susie bought gems like she bought cabbage, without blinking her eyes, she kept buying, buying, and buying all the way, spending money like water.

The two of them took a shower and lay on the bed, Xu Chengcai said, "Brother Zhu, I feel like I'm dreaming these few days."

Zhu Zhicheng smiled, "I am similar to you."

"I never thought that I could see so many new things in my life."

Xu Chengcai turned his head excitedly, "It's really eye-opening for us to follow Su Zhiqing. If I tell my family this when I go home, they won't believe it."

Zhu Zhicheng smiled, "Don't be called Su Zhiqing from now on, but Mr. Su."

Xu Chengcai was taken aback, and quickly nodded, "You're right, we can't downgrade Mr. Su."

Walking around the market together today, Xu Chengcai felt the gap between him and Mr. Yun's two bodyguards.

They look professional at first glance. When entering the market, they first observe the surrounding environment and always pay attention to the movements of the people around them.

He knew that he didn't have much experience, and wanted to learn from others, but he was always distracted by all kinds of new things in the market without knowing it.

Although Zhu Zhicheng was as inexperienced as he was, Xu Chengcai discovered that he was always paying attention to Su Qian's side.Even if someone passed by, he would use his body to separate them.

Xu Chengcai was a little ashamed: "Compared to Mr. Yun's bodyguards and Brother Zhu, I feel like I'm just making up the numbers."
