The Treasure Hunt of an Antique Dealer

It takes only 5o kilometers to reach the Cape of Good Hope from Cape Town in less than an hour.

Cape of Good Hope means "Cape of Good Hope", but there are storms here in all seasons, and there is not much stability when the waves are rough, so its original name seems to be more accurate --- "Cape of Storms".

It became a nature reserve in 1939. Several vehicles in which Zhang Nan was traveling needed to check in, and then it felt like they had reached the loess high slopes of West Qin, and several Land Rover vehicles raised dust all the way!

Huangdi and the Cape of Good Hope, these two place names, which are ten thousand miles apart, are just one piece together.

There are bushes on both sides of the road, deserted and uninhabited. Zhang Nan even saw one or two antelopes escaping from the stone **** on the side of the road, disappearing into the nearby rock pile in the blink of an eye.

Those ostriches who don't know whether they are wild or stocked are honest, just gnawing on the turf intently on the side.

As soon as I got off the bus, I felt that it was too simple as a scenic spot. A simple long wooden sign drew tourists to take pictures: English on the left and Afrikaans on the right, marked "Cape of Good Hope, Africa" The most southwestern end of Big 6", the latitude and longitude of the Cape of Good Hope are also indicated in the middle: 34 degrees minutes and 25 seconds south latitude, and 18 degrees 28 minutes 26 seconds east longitude.

Blowed by the wind, the temperature here is a bit lower than in Cape Town!

a little cold.

Zhang Nan looks out at the Atlantic Ocean, but in the distance with his left hand, there is the Indian Ocean.

Unconsciously said: "Hundreds of years ago, those Western explorers hoped that this channel would lead to the prosperous east, calling this the Cape of Good Hope. Many people think that this is the southernmost point of Africa's Big Six. In fact, it is 15o kilometers away. Cape Garres is the southernmost point in Africa..."

Talking to myself, as if talking to a non-existent person around me.

The environment here is too easy for people to forget the distress of reality, and this self-talk blows far away with the sea breeze.

No one would disturb Zhang Nan when he was staying, let alone Guan Xingquan, who would be in the downwind, heard what Zhang Nan said to himself, and knew that he must be devilish again-at this time, don’t worry. Don't bother him, otherwise this kid will easily turn his face and lose control!

Zhang Nan is a good person to people around him, except for one situation: when he stays!

And as long as he mentions this daughter who doesn't exist at all, there is always a day or two to get nervous at any time, this is summarized by Guan Xingquan.

Zhang Nan's demon barrier, Guan Xingquan stretched out his hand and made a hidden gesture. The 9 bodyguards immediately knew the meaning of the gesture-Boss Guan's gesture was very clear: no one can disturb the boss to see the scenery at this time!

And this is an irresistible order!

Don't bother, Guan Xingquan already feels that there is a mental problem with Anan, but after mentioning it once, Zhang Nan laughed and didn't answer, making you embarrassed to ask more.

Last time Guan Xingquan wanted to invite the best psychiatric expert in the United States to show Zhang Nan, but first asked Nicole and Jenny for their opinions in private. Nicole said, "Brother Guan, Ellen just missed his daughter. You. Don't worry, as long as Jenny and I give birth to a daughter for him, the intermittent mental fluctuations caused by missing loved ones will return to normal. I have consulted experts."

Well, the problem is even bigger!

Nicole and Jenny don't know, but Guan Xingquan knows-where is this daughter of Anan? !

If it weren't for the last plane crash, Guan Xingquan would have wanted to go to his hometown to find a few experts to exorcise Zhang Nan.

Guan Xingquan walked to the side of Brown and Xiang Zhangsheng who were chatting, and said softly: "Let's go a little further and let Anan stay alone."

The two appraisers looked at the back of the boss, shrugged, and ran to take pictures.

It was a bit stunned, the whole world only had the slightly violent sea breeze in winter, the turbulent ocean and the headland, which made myself ignore everyone nearby.

Holding his right hand vacantly, talking to himself, as if the daughter was by his side, the father and daughter arrived at a new attraction, and the daughter looked at herself with admiration and listened to her various knowledge.

"Dad, you are so amazing, you know everything!"

"That's, your dad, I know half of the heavens, and all the people on the ground..."

Blow, blow desperately!

Suddenly, the virtual hand gripped tightly and woke up.

I feel irritable and have nowhere to vent, a bit crazy!

And the roar in the head is getting louder and louder, and the breath in the chest seems to be unable to come out, making people crazy!

I couldn't help but yelled a few times at the tumbling ocean in the distance, almost hysterical.

Shouting for dozens of seconds, this is temporarily cool.

As soon as he turned around, a group of bodyguards were like door gods, guarding the passage leading to the sign, and the sea breeze blew the corners of everyone's suit.

You Fan!

There is not only a fan, but also a deterrent!

There are a lot of tourists nearby: I am standing in front of the sign. I guess they have stood stupidly for several minutes, but no one rushed over.

I can't make it even if I want to come over!

Because Guan Xingquan took off their sunglasses and stood on the small road leading to the sign, in an evasive posture-some of the eyes were not covered, and those tourists would just stand upside down as long as they were aimed at!

No one wants to be boring.

And the two big guys, Alyosha and Randy, opened the buttons of their suits, and the holster inside can be seen under the sea breeze. Even if some of the tourists have a bad temper, they still feel that they should not provoke this group of people.

This situation is not so good. Zhang Nan smiled and asked the nearest bodyguards: "Don't you take a few photos?"

Guan Xingquan shook his head, "Go back, Anan, it's raining."

The elder brother said something warm in his heart. It was probably only about Xingquan's ability to guess the bitterness in his heart.

In a group of bodyguards, Zhang Nan passed by the waiting group of tourists.

Suddenly, he seemed to see a familiar face in the crowd, his steps slowed down, and now it was clear that Zhang Chong was a familiar face before his birth, but it was impossible for the other party to recognize himself.

Unlike most tourists' eyes that dodge their bodyguards subconsciously, the other person is looking at him, Zhang Nan smiles apologetically at the person, and then speeds up his pace to leave.

If it weren't for this kind of environment, I would be a little bit interested in chatting with the other party, but let's forget it now: the environment is not suitable, and I'm not in the mood.

...

On the way back, Zhang Nan didn't say a word, and Brown, who was with the car, didn't speak either, and the atmosphere was depressed.

Once back to the hotel, the sky dimmed.

At 7:30 in the evening, the Basten and two other businessmen arrived at the hotel Zhang Nan's suite under the protection of several bodyguards.

With good luck, I finally bought a rough diamond that can be cut into a 3o carat cushion diamond, and a blue diamond with a finished product that can reach more than 5 carats.

Adding more than 20 rough diamonds of different sizes and loose diamonds, Zhang Nan paid a total of 450,000 US dollars.

After sending away the two contented diamond dealers, Basten finally took out the huge diamond in the bag.

"599 carats, pale rose color, a price of 10 million US dollars."

Basten put it very simply, he is just a middleman, can't achieve this price.

A crystal clear rough diamond appeared in front of Zhang Nan's eyes, shining a special light under the light. This crystal clearness is Zhang Nan's only feeling. He really can't see good or bad, and he doesn't understand the identification of rough diamonds.

Give it to Brown and Xiang Zhangsheng, which requires both of them to examine it together.

The light is 56ook, and after a full half an hour, the two people have finished checking.

Except for the "Aurora", Brown has not personally inspected a 5oo carat rough diamond in so many years. This is very serious.

Needless to say, Xiang Zhangsheng, outside of "Aurora", he has not personally inspected rough diamonds of more than 8o carats before: the largest rough diamond ever seen in the diamond mine he worked in before was only 75 carats!

Late in the inspection, the quality of the rough diamonds was very good, but it was not over yet. Both appraisers took out a few pieces of white paper and pencils and began to draw sketches.

It was another seven or eight minutes, and the living room was quiet, and no one spoke.

Basten was waiting, and Zhang Nan was looking at the few loose diamonds he bought just now, and it took time for both ends.

When Brown and the others finish drawing, the graphics on the two papers are very similar or similar: a very rare style, not square, not flat, and close to a circle.

Although it's rare, imagine what the finished product looks like, it's probably very bright.

"Boss, this is the approximate shape of this diamond after avoiding all blemishes~www.readwn.com~ If cut in this way, the diamond will maintain about 45 percent of its weight, and its clarity can almost reach FL."

This is about 27o carats.

Brown expressed the common opinion of the two, as for the color, I won't talk about it: pale rose color, no standard, anyway, it will be very beautiful.

After listening, Zhang Nan smiled and said to Basten: "Cash or transfer?"

Cash is not a problem. A phone call or Citibank's cash truck can be delivered most of the night!

After Basten left, looking at the huge diamond on the table, Zhang Nan said to Brown: "This Basten’s friend, or the person behind his friend, is from De Beers and is still very You have to guard against those with energy in the future."

Brown looked serious and nodded: The boss will not talk nonsense, there must be his reason.

Why is De Beers?

Because Zhang Nan knows that this is a rough diamond produced from the Premiere rock pipe, and that rock pipe is the largest mine controlled by De Beers in South Africa!

Rough diamonds are not familiar to him, but when the two sketches came out, Zhang Nan knew that this diamond was very famous before he was reborn. It was called the "Diamond of the Century."

In 1988, a premium gem-quality diamond weighing 599 carats was discovered in the Premiere tube, which was named "Hundred Years".

After three years of high-level professional cutters, it was finally processed into a giant diamond weighing 273.85 carats, which was named the "Century" diamond.

The look of this diamond is very strange and easy to remember. It will not be forgotten after seeing it once. There are more than 27o slices in total.

"When you go back, follow your design and see how it can be cut.

Well, it just happens to be the matching diamond on the scepter. "

After listening to Zhang Nan's words, Brown wanted to hit his head with the huge diamond on the table! 8
