The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

The old town of Cape Town, a six-story building, looks at the old British colonial buildings for some years.

As soon as Zhang Nan's group arrived, they immediately attracted the attention of the people in several shops on the first floor of the building, but watching a group of people walking straight up the stairs, they knew nothing was wrong with them.

Zhang Nan feels that this house is a bit interesting. This building is horizontal and is called the "Diamond Building". All the companies here are also related to diamonds.

All here is money!

The shops on the first floor are just the facades of several companies in the building. The real big customers never enter the facades, they go directly upstairs.

The guard of the building with the gun looked at the man's posture, and let him go without asking.

They are all discerning people. At a glance, you can see that these sturdy men are professional bodyguards. There are also many Asian faces. They are definitely rich people who come to the building to purchase. Don't worry about it.

This is the Diamond Building. The wealth in it is terrifying, but it is absolutely impossible for a group of East Asians and a few Europeans to rob. The guards of this building are very relieved.

On the third floor, Zhang Nan walked into a "Kimberley Diamond Company" under Brown's guidance.

The name of the sign is very big, but there are two offices, one large and one small inside, plus a reception room, so Zhang Nan and the group will be able to sit down.

However, there were many people and the house was small. Except for Guan Xingquan and Alyosha, the other bodyguards consciously stayed at the company's door.

This company is a distributor of rough and loose diamonds in South Africa. It has its own small mine. The boss has had many dealings with Brown, and the relationship is very good.

Because Zhang Nan didn't say hello in advance, Brown didn't contact him in advance, but luck was okay, and he was in charge.

"Hello, Mr. Loebs-Brown, we haven't seen each other for more than a year!"

When the boss named Basten saw Brown, he immediately greeted him with a smile: This is a well-known jewelry appraiser in the United States, and every time he comes to his company, there is a good thing!

Besides, there are a lot of bodyguards, absolutely super rich!

Big business is here!

"Me too, dear Mr. Basten..."

Both sides exchanged greetings and introduced Zhang Nan, the rich man in New York.

"Mr. Allen, our company has the best rough and loose diamonds. I don't know what your requirements are?"

Basten, it should be a Boer's surname, this will not rush to show the company's diamonds, ask the situation first, don't be impatient.

It doesn't matter if you are Chinese or RB, experienced.

When Zhang Nan heard this, he smiled and said: "Rough diamonds of more than 10 carats and finished diamonds of more than 5 carats. It doesn't matter if there are top-quality colored diamonds. I have family members who have a special interest in colored diamonds. The quality is inferior. No need."

Brown would insert a sentence: "Mr. Allen is my good friend, the real diamond collector, so please take out the rough diamonds you brought from the north.

Also, if your business partner has a good drill, you can also bring it. We will stay at the spa hotel tonight. "

When Basten heard what Brown said, he knew: As long as it's a diamond, don't care where you came from, the buyer doesn't care.

Conflict diamonds can’t be bought by mistake. Collectors, even if they don’t hide them and want to sell them, there will be suitable channels.

"No problem, Mr. Allen."

As soon as Basten gestured, he said something to a company man waiting next to him, who immediately left.

There is no need to evade, just ask the person to contact the bosses of a few well-connected diamond companies and say that there are big customers here, experts and big buyers from New York—special reminder, as long as it is a good diamond.

If you are an expert, don't scream the price. The big buyer asks those friends to bring out the best items. As for "good diamonds," everyone understands.

After waiting for a while, two staff members walked in with four flat boxes with lids and opened them on the table. Two of them add up to 40 or 50 rough stones of more than 10 carats, and the other two There are more than fifty loose diamonds of more than 5 carats, but the colored diamond is only a yellow diamond that looks less than 10 carats, or a round diamond that Zhang Nan does not like.

Each loose diamond is affixed with the 4C logo, but after a glance, Zhang Nan directly eliminated loose diamonds with colors below H, clarity grades below VVS2, and very good cut grades below. The 15-carat round diamond is also aside.

This leaves only 5 loose diamonds to meet Zhang Nan's requirements: one drop-shaped, weighing 15.06 carats; two pear-shaped, weighing 10.81 carats and 12.43 carats respectively; two pillow-shaped, weighing 5.12 carats and 11.02 carats respectively .

Once Zhang Nan was selected, Brown and Xiang Zhang were responsible for the next job. They took out professional tools to start the appraisal.

Friends are friends, and business is business.

After the two experts checked for a while, Xiang Zhangsheng said: "There is no problem with the marked level."

Brown was more straightforward and nodded.

5 diamonds, Basten asks for 1.2 million US dollars, not expensive, but the largest drop-shaped diamond does not have any certificate, but Zhang Nan doesn't care at all.

For diamonds over 10.8 carats, the owner can name them, and who cares about the certificate.

The first business cooperation was pleasant, but Basten felt it was a pity that Zhang Nan didn't ask for the yellow diamond.

Hearing what the other party said, Brown smiled and didn't say it, but Zhang Nan said instead: "Mr. Basten, you can contact Brown if you have top diamonds in the future.

As for colored diamonds, my family has special preferences, but only the top ones are needed, such as unparalleled. "

Upon hearing this, Basten understood that people did not like this yellow diamond because the color level was not enough. He said: "I only saw the ‘unbeatable’ in the data, but unfortunately it has already been bought by an anonymous buyer. I guess I won’t see it again..."

Zhang Nan didn't say much, he wasn't very familiar with it yet, and there was no need to show off in front of everyone.

After finishing the loose diamond, look at the rough stone.

Now Zhang Nan really couldn't understand: the rough stones of a dozen carats were basically six-sided diamonds, a bit like rock candy. However, the largest rough stone has 37 carats, but its shape is very irregular. Zhang Nan felt that if it was clamped by the machine, the naked eye could see the broken surface on its edge.

In the end, Zhang Nan bought three more rough stones of less than 20 carats for another 450,000.

There is no formalities for the rough diamonds, regardless of the origin, relying on the eyes of two appraisers.

I didn’t want the biggest rough diamond. The crack was too deep and the price couldn’t be negotiated. Both Brown and Xiang Zhangsheng believed that it could only be cut into three main diamonds of the same size, and the loss would exceed 65 percent. A "rock candy".

If you forcibly process two diamonds, one large and one small, the larger main diamond is very likely to have flaws, and you won’t be guilty of it.
