Chapter 318 Find a Way to Earn Foreign Currency (Subscribe)

Zou Die's personality is relatively majestic, but she is naturally charming and feminine. She has the appearance of a fox that people often say, and her voice is also a bit whiny.

This sentence came as soon as the phone was connected, which made Li Shi, who had been mentally prepared, stunned for a second.

The scene of painting her at the beginning flashed through my mind.

He thought to himself, no wonder elder brother Lu Congwei was taken aback by his daughter-in-law, who wouldn't be confused by such a woman.

Li Shi pretended to have a wry smile and said, "Sister-in-law, you've already called me little uncle. As long as I have such a good relationship with Viagra, the first time you speak, I will definitely give you face."

"In this way, as long as the price is right, it doesn't matter whether you buy out the stone, sell it on a consignment, or do other operations. Sister-in-law, if you start a business, I will definitely support you."

Li Shi's words sound good, and he really intends to give up some of the profits without suffering a loss. In addition to strengthening the cooperative relationship with the couple, he is also further developing shipping channels for himself.

Only when there are more channels, can he ship goods calmly in the future, and when he wants to make more goods, he can ship more goods at any time.

It can also be regarded as a disguised upfront investment.

At present, the situation in the jadeite market is very complicated. The situation on the sales side is complicated, and the situation on the supply side is also complicated. There are polarizations in both directions.

But these are not important to Li Shi, because the jadeite he sells is the best of the best, and it has always been a seller's market. When such top-quality goods are released, they will usually be snapped up by the expert market.

"Okay." Seeing what he said, Zou Die on the other side of the conversation immediately agreed happily, and then hurriedly said: "You baby, please don't show it to others. I will go find you with Lao Lu tomorrow. Don't tell anyone else until we're done talking."

Li Shi knew that she was actually referring to Chen Yao. Thinking about the good heterosexual relationship between Chen Yao and Lu Congwei, he secretly smiled and asked in surprise, "That's for sure, but why are you in such a hurry?"

Zou Die explained: "My Emerald Club store is going to start trial operation on June 30th. Although I have prepared some goods, I will try my best to make a big hit. Naturally, the more top-notch goods in the store, the better."

"It seems that sister-in-law, you are quite ambitious."

Zou Die didn't deny it, and even admitted: "I really like to make my career bigger, because my attitude towards career is—either I don't do it, or I do it and I try to do my best."

Li Shi smiled and said: "This is the attitude of a real career. It seems that I may have to live behind your sister-in-law in the future."

"Go, you are a big shot in the industry, why are you making fun of me, a newcomer in the industry?"

The two reached a preliminary verbal agreement, both in a good mood, and made a few jokes.

Before hanging up the phone, Li Shi finally said: "It's just right, Viagra said many times before that he would come to Tanzhou to visit me, but this time he finally came, after buying the ticket, send me the flight information, and I will pick you up at the airport. "

After hanging up the phone, Li Shi lamented that in modern society, women are really ambitious, and there are more and more strong women.

Not long after, Lu Congwei sent the flight information of the couple.

Fly from the nearest Dehong Mangshi Airport in Ruili, transfer to Kunming City, and then fly to Tanzhou Huanghua Airport.Departure at 10:30 am, and arrive at [-]:[-] pm if not later.

Li Shi first called his little assistant Zhang Huijing and told her to book hotels and restaurants.

This kind of reception task, for the current Zhang Huijing, is familiar with the way, and she can answer it instantly.

Putting away his mobile phone, Li Shi, who was originally in Phoenix Bay, went downstairs with his car keys and drove to the activity base again.

The activity base was originally a school built on the mountain, but now it is deserted and extremely quiet. It will make people feel gloomy when entering during the day, let alone at night.

Li Shi came alone, but he was not afraid at all—in fact, before he got the learning panel, he was not so courageous. When he was a child, he would be a little afraid of ghosts in the village, when he went to the graveyard, or when he went out at night, but now he is not afraid at all.

The special experience made him understand the nature of the world better than anyone else.

Enter the activity base, turn on the lights, come to the jadeite processing classroom, open the safe, and take out a stone from the Jieyang public market last time.

The stone cost him more than 20 yuan at the beginning, and it was about the size of a football. From the appearance, it performed very well in all aspects, and the flashlight was inserted into it, which was very transparent.

I have seen the performance of the stone many times when I bought it, and there are lines drawn on it. However, before cutting, Li Shi took a rough look with a strong flashlight, and then found the position to be cut, and fixed it on the cutting stone. On the machine, close the cover of the stone cutter, power on, and press the switch.

Immediately there was noise from inside the machine.

"It's true when it's fake. No matter how the stone is cut, the piece I exchanged for the wealth attribute point should be cut out of this rough stone. Well, I said yes, and no!"

When the stone was cut, Li Shi curled his lips. The jade flesh in the middle of the stone is very good. The best quality is at least high ice level, with a touch of green, but there are too many cracks, a bit " "Emperor Crack" means, not to mention exporting bracelets, it is very difficult to produce four or six cards.

The value suddenly plummeted.

It's hard for a god to break an inch of jade, nothing more than this.

Li Shi thought of the half-palm-sized ice-covered green stone in the Phoenix Bay study, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Fortunately, I am a 'creator' who can exchange wealth attribute points for materials at any time! "

One night, he cut all the good stones accumulated in the safe.

Then pick out some valuable ones and lock them into another safe.

He didn't plan to sell these stones that were at least above waxy ice, and kept them for now. They might be used in the future, whether they were used to practice carving or retail jadeite.

"Although this cabinet doesn't have very good things, it's worth a million. Although the activity base has triple security with a gate, a classroom security door, and a large safe, it still needs to install a remote monitoring system for the warehouse."

This night, apart from cutting stones, Li Shi was reading ancient calligraphy theory works. When he came out of the activity base in the morning, it was already bright. He checked the time, and it was around 50:[-].

I drove to the urban area and ate a bowl of fish meal at a fish meal shop on the street.
When I got home, I took a shower, and after 08:30, I called Zhang Hui again with my mobile phone, and told her to find someone to install remote monitoring for the activity base after a while.

"The key point is the fence. Just keep an eye on whether anyone enters the activity base. There is no need to install surveillance in the base."

……

After sleeping for three hours and waking up at 11:30, Li Shi felt refreshed and did not feel any fatigue or discomfort from staying up late.

Look at the information on your phone first.

Lu Congwei sent a message an hour ago, and their flight to Kuncheng took off on time, but the flight from Kuncheng to Tanzhou was unsurprisingly delayed.

"It's more than an hour late, but it's just in time for dinner."

Li Shi called and relayed the news to his assistant Zhang Huijing first: "So you can arrange dinner directly. We will pick up people in the evening and go directly to the restaurant for dinner."

After a casual meal at noon, I went into the study to make a post.

An hour later, he came out of the study, sat on the sofa, and continued to think about making money.

"Let's take a look at the prices of the major auctions in the past two months."

It is also Li Shi's habit now to look at the transaction prices of major auctions after a period of time.

He first scanned the domestic ones, and then set his sights on foreign countries.

"On May 133, Sotheby's Spring Auction of Magnificent Jewels in Geneva ended. A total of 600 lots were presented, with a turnover of up to 11.16 million US dollars. The focus of the lot was an 1ct drop-shaped fancy vivid blue diamond ring, Fancy Vivid Blue color Grade and VS2262.5 clarity, the final transaction was [-] million Swiss francs.”

How much is it?

Li Shi switched to the currency converter to check, and when he saw the result, he couldn't help reaching out and touching his chin.

According to today's exchange rate: 2262.5 million Swiss francs = 18695.2 million RMB = 2582.6 million US dollars!
"The weight of 11.16 carats is only 2.232 grams! It only needs to be exchanged for 0.002232 wealth attribute points!"

He was very moved by the news.

"Unfortunately, diamonds are not easy to sell, even big colored diamonds."

Li Shi continued to look down. The second highest transaction record in this auction was still a diamond, a 21.94ct pink diamond with Fancy Intense Pink color grade and VVS2 clarity. The final transaction price was 1038 million Swiss francs.

"21.94 carats is 4.388 grams. The purity is much lower, but it still exceeds ten million Swiss francs!"

Li Shi saw the data above, especially the units of US dollars and Swiss francs. He thought that he would go abroad to play and study in the future, so he had to find a way to earn some foreign exchange.

"Diamonds, diamonds."

Li Shi pondered for a moment, took his mobile phone and began to check all aspects of diamond information.

With the rise of man-made diamonds, and almost the entire world's economy is going down, it is a fact that the global diamond market is also constantly falling.

Large-carat colored diamonds are still a popular luxury item at auctions, especially in Japan, South Korea, Europe, and other countries. "

When he searched for diamond-related information, he saw many netizens on the Internet saying that diamonds are a scam, and these auctions are just one of the ways for them to launder their money.

"This kind of behavior may exist, but most auctions are definitely not like this. At least the few auctions I participated in are relatively real."

Li Shi pondered for a moment.

"It's not wrong to say that diamonds are a scam. Its binding with love is itself a fraudulent trick. Whether two people want to love or not has nothing to do with a stone. If they don't love, no matter how many heart-shaped stones they give. Useless."

"In addition, small diamonds, or broken diamonds, really have no recycling value after they are bought back."

"However, natural large diamonds, or relatively large colored diamonds, are still of high value. Those rich people who like gems will rush to bid."

After searching a lot of information and materials, Li Shi thought to himself, whether it is a scam or not, if I can exchange for more foreign exchange with the least amount of wealth attribute points, why not do it for me?

But the key problem is that the diamonds we exchanged with wealth attribute points have no provenance and no certificate of identification-may not be easy to sell.

Li Shi pondered for a moment, found Zhou Yajuan's number, and called her: "Manager Zhou, I have a question for you. Where did you find the diamonds you auctioned in the past?"

In any case, all parties should first inquire about the news.

Zhou Yajuan has been dealing with Li Shi for so long, and when she heard him ask this question, she suddenly felt moved. She thought, could it be... She suppressed her curiosity and explained: "Our jewelry department has special treasure hunting experts. These experts are divided into junior and senior experts. There are two levels of seniority, and senior experts will search for various auctions all over the world, including diamonds."

When she said this, she had an idea, and added: "In recent years, colored diamonds have been particularly popular in Asia. In the eyes of many buyers, natural colored diamonds have great potential for appreciation. Last year, Poly Winter Auction, this year's Sotheby's Geneva auction, Fancy colored diamonds are all brilliant, with a high transaction volume, and our experts have been looking for colored diamonds recently, especially blue diamonds and pink diamonds...Mr. Li, if you inquire about diamonds, do you have any diamonds you want to sell?"

Her tone was expectant.

This Mr. Li's shot is a good thing that can greatly increase his performance.

Li Shi smiled and said: "It's not me, it's a friend of mine who has diamonds in his hand and is thinking about selling them, but he hasn't made up his mind yet. By the way, his certificate of appraisal has been lost. Does it matter?"

Zhou Yajuan: "That needs to be re-submitted first."

……

Li Shi: "Well, thank you. If my friend thinks about sending the shoot, I will contact you again."

After chatting with Zhou Yajuan for a long time, after Li Shi hung up the phone, he summed up what she meant: as long as the things are genuine and good, colored diamonds without certificates can also be re-submitted for inspection for certificates, and then let experts make up stories for auction.

"You can try, but be conservative first..."

Diamonds are different from emeralds. Emeralds have been circulating in the country for hundreds of years. In the past, many businessmen who needed to make connections liked to buy antiques, jadeite, and Hetian jade as gifts... In addition, you can also purchase rough stones to create your identity as an emerald merchant to further conceal the source. , It's not a problem at all to make some shots every once in a while.

"Also think about it and see if there are other ways to earn foreign currency."

Li Shi put aside the matter of diamonds for the time being, thinking about receiving guests at night, so he started his daily tasks ahead of time—continuing to post.

At around five o'clock in the afternoon, he and his assistant Zhang Huijing drove to the airport and picked up Lu Congwei and Zou Die.

We greet each other first, and then take Li Shi's Bentley and go directly to the reserved Hunan restaurant for dinner.

Neither of the couple can eat too spicy, so Zhang Huijing specially told the chef to put less chili, but even if it is "slightly spicy", it still let them see the "enthusiasm" of Hunan cuisine.

After dinner, Li Shi took them to the hotel to settle down first.

As soon as he walked into the reservation lobby, Li Shi's mobile phone rang in his pocket. When he picked it up, he saw that the message was from someone who surprised him: "Mr. Li, I just checked at the gate of Beichen Intercontinental Hotel. Seeing someone who looks similar to you, it can’t be you, right?” (End of this chapter)
