Little Life on An American Ranch Chapter 187

  Chapter 187 Peerless Pink Diamond

  After sleeping until dawn, Jian Heng took a simple wash here, and together with the old lady Curtis, they ordered another bowl of self-heating braised pork with rice.

   After eating, Jian Heng watched the old lady teach the children while waiting for Kan Erken to come over and tell him to trade.

  Because I have been here several times, now these people are not as guarded against Jian Heng as they were the first time, and they have freedom of movement here.

  But Jian Heng didn't look around curiously. As the old saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.

Jian Heng knew that he was here to sell diamonds. As for the racial hatred involved, and the racial hatred among white people, it was not something he should care about. He didn't have such a big hat on his head. matter.

   After staying like this for a whole morning, Jian Heng couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

  Because Kan Erken came over a few times before, at most around ten o'clock, but now it seems that it is almost time for lunch, and Kan Erken has not shown up yet.

   Jian Heng can only ask Mrs. Curtis here.

   "I'll go and ask for you." The old lady also felt strange, and when she heard Jian Heng's question, she agreed to help Jian Heng to find out.

   "Then thank you!" Jian Heng said hastily.

  Mrs. Curtis nodded to Jian Heng, wiped her hands on her apron, and walked out of the cave where she lived.

   Jian Heng took out another box of self-heating box rice, added water and waited for lunch.

About ten minutes later, Jian Heng had just picked up the box of rice, and Mrs. Curtis came back. The old man said to Jian Heng, "They went to the mouth of the pit and heard that something happened there. Please wait patiently." .

   "Okay!" Jian Heng answered happily.

In fact, it doesn't work if you don't feel happy, I'm still waiting to get the goods, and this time Jian Heng wants a lot of goods, worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, not only from White's side, but also from Jian Heng's own side. Waiting for the money.

  After lunch, Jian Heng patiently waited again, who knew that the sun was about to set, and Kan Erken appeared.

  Seeing Kan Erken appearing at the door, Jian Heng jumped up from his chair: "You are finally here! I thought I would spend another night here tonight."

  Karken smiled at Jian Heng without explaining, but just said: "Follow me!"

   After speaking, Kan Erken led the way, while Jian Heng dragged his suitcase and followed behind him.

  After walking for a while, Jian Heng frowned a little, and said to Kan Erken: "Why did you change the place? This doesn't seem to be where we were going?"

  Finding that the road was different from the original one, Jian Heng became subconsciously alert.

  Karken said: "Our leader is not in the original place, I will take you to the place where the goods are transferred! You can pick diamonds yourself!"

Hearing this, Jian Heng had no choice but to keep his mouth shut. Jian Heng always paid a small amount, two or three hundred thousand, and the most so far is this time, asking for four hundred thousand or almost half a million. goods. This is really not a big customer, not to mention others, I heard from the old lady Curtis that I have never been able to get as much goods as Lynch a few times.

  Followed Kanerken out of the valley, got on the horse and rode for about 20 minutes, entered the forest, went around for a while, and finally came to a small village.

The villages are all of that primitive style, and the houses are made of leaves and mud. It's just that when I saw such a village in Africa, the people who lived there were all black people. Now it's replaced by white people, old and young. The young ones have hundreds of people, the old ones are in their sixties and seventies, and the young ones look like fifteen or sixteen.

  Under the eyes of everyone, Kan Erken took Jian Heng to the largest house in the village. The so-called largest house was only about 40 square meters, and there were two miner's lamps inside, which looked quite bright.

   The old man I saw sitting at the table in the room was the leader in Kanerken's mouth. I don't know his name, but Jian Heng always called him the old man.

   "So you are here, old man!" Jian Heng entered the room, saw the old man's appearance clearly, and greeted the old man with a smile.

   "Hello, Mr. Jean" The old man also stood up with a smile, and after greeting Jian Heng, he motioned for Jian Heng to sit down.

   After Jian Heng sat down, he put the box he was carrying on the table: "Let's trade!"

  Hearing what Jian Heng said, the old man stretched out his hand and held the box with a smile: "No hurry!"

  Jian Hengxin said: You are not in a hurry, I am in a hurry, I am still waiting to go home! Don't worry, do you want to chat with me?

   "Is there anything else?" Jian Heng had no choice but to put down his hand on the box.

  The old man smiled and took out the black flannel bag from his pocket, then opened it, and put a huge diamond on the black-faced box Jian Heng was carrying.

  Put it on the box, and the old man stretched out his hand with a smile to show Jian Heng to appreciate it.

  Jian Heng was a little dumbfounded immediately. Such a large piece is at least 30 carats. Not only is it big, but this rough diamond is also an extremely rare pink color.

Picking up the original diamond, Jian Heng took a look carefully. Although he is not a jewelry expert, Jian Heng can also tell that if this kind of pink diamond comes from a formal channel, it may not cost tens of millions of dollars. It is estimated that it is as big as this. If the professional evaluation of purity is better, it will be difficult to say at the auction. Let's put it this way, this pink diamond has a high probability of ranking among the top five in the world.

  Jian Heng didn't know that the pink diamond in his hand had a chance to surpass the Williamson brooch owned by the Queen of England.

"what do you mean?"

   After a few glances, Jian Heng put the diamond back on the black box surface and sat upright.

To be honest, Jian Heng is very rare for this pink diamond, but Jian Heng also understands that he can't own it with his own strength, even if it is at the black market price, if the purity is a little better, Jian Heng may not be able to exchange the farm for it. A pink diamond, but this is still the black market price!

   "We want to ship this diamond into the United States through your channel!" The old man said, reached out and picked up the diamond, carefully put it back into the black pocket, and handed it to a white woman next to him.

  The white woman picked up the black bag with a cold face and put it in the safe next to her.

  The old man now has a certain understanding of all his channels. He knows that the only one who has not missed since he entered the industry is the Chinese boy in front of him, so when he thinks of transporting pink diamonds, the old man thinks of Jian Heng first.

   "No, I can't transport this thing!" Jian Heng shook his head and said: "My channels are only suitable for rough diamonds of a few carats at most, and such large diamonds cannot be shipped!"

  Jian Heng restrained the greed in his heart. To be honest, just this aspect alone, Jian Heng had countless thoughts in his mind to get this pink diamond, but Jian Heng finally restrained his thoughts, because this thing is too hot!

What the old man is talking about here is asking Jian Heng to transport this diamond to the United States. Think about it, there must be someone in the United States who has a joint, and the person who has the courage to take over such a rare pink diamond in the United States, can he be an ordinary person? ?

  Not to mention anything else, just buy it with money, and then wash it off, the price is beyond the reach of ordinary people. Facing such an opponent, why do you play black and white? It is a good thing not to be eaten by others. If there is no space, it is possible that as soon as the goods arrive in the United States, their own bodies will float up in the river in a few days. At that time, maybe the police will get an unnamed corpse, and then find a place to bury it, and it will be done hastily.

  Jian Heng has seen too much darkness and doesn't want to get himself into trouble.

   "The transportation fee is 200,000 U.S. dollars, and the recipient will pay immediately when it arrives in the United States," the old man said.

Jian Heng didn't hesitate at all, and waved his hand: "The price is very attractive, but I want to emphasize again that my channel can't handle such a big thing, it's just a few carats at most. It seems that this thing is at least in the twenties. Dozens of carats, there is no way!"

   Speaking of which, Jian Heng greedily glanced at the safe with a regretful look.

  The old man now feels that it is a trouble of happiness. It should be a happy thing that such a peerless pink diamond has been produced at the mouth of the riverbed mine. But now it has become a troublesome thing, not only finding a buyer is a problem, but also transportation. The buyer is willing to pay a high price, but the only condition is that the diamond must be traded in the United States.

   This makes the old man difficult, but the old man also understands that among all his customers, only this customer has the strength to buy and wash this diamond. The other customers either have no strength or their credit is not reliable.

   "Then let's trade!"

  The old man saw Jian Heng's appearance, so he smiled, reached out and patted the box Jian Heng brought.

  Opening it and seeing that hundreds of thousands of dollars is a lot, the old man motioned to the woman just now to take out another black bag and put some raw ore on the table.

It was the first time for Jian Heng to enjoy this kind of treatment from a big client, so he naturally chose carefully, not just the big ones, the size was in a ratio of one to three, with one slightly larger and two smaller ones, It took nearly half an hour to pick out hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of diamonds.

   For the selected diamond, Jian Heng's side can be regarded as clearing money and goods. According to the old routine, Kan Erken took Jian Heng all the way out of other people's territory. Of course, his eyes still had to be blindfolded.

  Out of the place, Jian Heng didn't say much here, waiting for Kanerken to disappear, he threw his car out of the space, and then drove straight to Johannesburg.

  After walking less than ten kilometers, Jian Heng felt that someone was watching him. Although Jian Heng couldn't find anyone, the feeling of being spied on was like a maggot attached to the bone.

   There was a section of the road, Jian Heng deliberately slowed down, thinking about what actions these people might have, but unfortunately, these people did not show up until Johannesburg.

When he arrived in the city, Jian Heng had no choice but to hide. What's more, the car couldn't be hidden. He had to find a second-hand car shop and sell the car. He took the money and went directly to the airport, where he waited. Fly back to America.

  At this time, Jian Heng was very curious, because why did this group of people not do anything when given the opportunity, and another question is why did this group of people quickly catch when they left?

  A series of questions appeared in Jian Heng's mind. Until boarding the plane, Jian Heng didn't have any clues in his mind.

   There was no problem in South Africa, but when it landed in New York, trouble came.

  Jian Heng is preparing to line up to exit the customs. A tall woman in professional attire, very sexy, with two tall and strong policemen behind her. The three walked straight towards Jian Heng.

   "Sir, please come with us!"

"What's up?"

   "Routine inspection!" The woman looks pretty, but her expression is very cold, like I don't want to talk to a scum like you.

After hearing this, Jian Heng felt that this question was interesting. The posture of this person seemed to be sure that he could catch him. The first thought came to Jian Heng, someone sold his own, and I'm pretty sure my stuff is on me right now.

   Turning his head to look at the policeman standing next to him like two door gods, Jian Heng didn't bother to look for him, but turned to the woman leading the team and asked, "Can I notify my lawyer?"

   As he spoke, he reached for his pocket and didn't reach out to take it out to avoid any misunderstandings. If the police broke down because of this action, it would be troublesome.

  Nodding proudly to the giraffe-like woman.
