Chapter 186: Diamond League seats

The African Star rough stone weighs 3,106 carats. The largest and second largest diamonds after cutting and polishing are set on Philip's scepter and crown respectively. Other smaller ones are basically embellished on the crown.

Now there is a 168-carat No. 3 diamond, which means that the diamond is not divided into No. 3 and No. 4.

Then Philip's crown, with two 94.4 and 63.6 giant diamonds less than the queen's crown, was cut into 168 carats of diamonds and flowed into the hands of the London Diamond Group.

Li Changheng looked at Annie, who had been holding him, looked at Charles with beaming eyes and asked, "How much is this African Star No. 3 diamond worth?"

Hearing Li Changheng's question about the value of the No. 3 diamond, Charles thought for a while and said helplessly, "It's hard to tell."

"None of the large and small diamonds processed from the entire rough stone flowed into the market.

You say it is priceless, it has the royal family's name bonus, and it really cannot be priced."

"Even if I want to find a diamond of the same size and purity, I can't find a diamond with an auction record, and I can't give an exact price."

"It's not necessarily," Andrew said for a few seconds. "White Diamonds have no examples to compare.

If you compare the auction prices of red and yellow diamonds with a 1:20 carat weight loss, it will cost you at least 5 million pounds, right? "

"Okay, I'll take this task," Li Changheng said, squinting. "However, tell the London Diamond Group that a two-ton rough stone is two million grams.

Converted to Kara is 10 million. Do they treat me as idiots who don’t know the market?

Want to buy a 1 carat rough stone for 10 pounds? This price is not available in African origin.

Moreover, it is widely rumored that the vaults of the London Diamond Group will only store rough stones of at least 5 carats, and the price is doubled. "

"It's impossible, Henry".

Charles shook his head, "Since you know the market, you must understand that no one dares to sell these diamonds to the market.

Even if it hadn't happened, they wouldn't even dare to tell anyone other than the core members that they had deposited 2 tons of diamonds.

I am worried that the price of diamonds will plummet and affect their money.

And my father and the people in Downing Street worry that hundreds of thousands of people will be unemployed."

Andrew shook his head, "Although I knew that the price of diamonds has moisture, I didn't expect it to be so big."

Then he settled in his mind, and said, “The families who registered for marriage in England last year seemed to have only about 240,000. That is to say, two million rough stones of more than 5 carats are enough to give away for 9 years.

No wonder many people say that these diamond dealers are vampires. With such a large amount of storage, diamonds can still be valuable? "

Li Changheng smiled and pushed Andrew back to Charles's seat, "Don't worry, as long as the girl likes this thing, it will only rise and not fall in the future."

Then he said to Charles, "The valuation of 100 million is too low. I ask for at least 200 million pounds, plus the No. 3 diamond to give to my Annie."

"Go, God", Annie was busy covering her mouth, her face flushed in a few seconds, her eyes full of surprise and love looking at Li Changheng.

And Charles and Andrew also looked at him with incredible expressions, and then looked at Annie who threw into Li Changheng's arms with envy and jealousy.

"Wait, Henry," Andrew said with a rolling eyeball. "Or, how about you hand over the negotiation of diamond valuation to me?"

"Do you want to get a commission?"

Li Changheng instantly understood what Andrew was thinking, and then wondered whether he wanted cash or simply wanted a seat in the Diamond League?

Once he was qualified as the sole purchaser of Hong Kong and Kowloon, it would be equivalent to monopolizing the six-tier Hong Kong and Kowloon diamond market.

The sources of diamonds in this era, except for the unreasonable length of time, and the red polar bears, who were provoked by the English, who said they would cut prices.

This group of people in England is not only in the number of diamond mines, but also accounts for 60% of the world.

In diamond sales, it accounts for 70% to 80% of the total.

Although this ratio will decrease a little bit in the future, it can still be monopolized for many years.

And to be honest, even if he let him swallow the two tons of rough stones, Li Changheng would think about it and give up.

If you want to polish two tons of rough diamonds, it will take several years to find polishers from all over the world.

Just rely on a dozen people, give them 100 years, can polish 50,000, it is already considered a super master.

Instead of piled up like glass **** in a secret room, it is better to take cash and seats in the Diamond League.

"I want the seat of the only purchaser of the Diamond Alliance in Hong Kong, Kowloon, South Korea and the island countries."

"This is impossible".

Before Andrew spoke, Charles said, "It's possible to give you a place in Hong Kong and Kowloon or South Korea.

For the island country, forget it. As far as I know, the island country has three purchasers. It is impossible for the London Diamond Group to offend the increasingly wealthy islanders for you."

"Then use a valuation of 200 million yuan as the dividing line, plus the only purchase qualifications for Hong Kong and Kowloon and South Korea.

The two of you brothers helped me negotiate, the 5% remuneration me and the 4%, you get 1%, which is 2 million pounds and you will share it."

"That is one million per person."

Andrew immediately wanted to nod, and Charles felt that it was less, but Annie felt that it was more.

The siblings said ‘no’ in tandem.

Anne didn't wait for Charles to speak, she said, "My dear, you give me the task, and I promise not to have your money."

"Etc., etc".

Andrew hurriedly said, "My dearest Annie, ignore Charles, he inherited the exclusive first heir to the Duke, and he is worth 30 to 40 million pounds.

You don't have to worry about money when you have Henry. I am the poorest and most unlucky here.

So, my dear, you have to think about my situation, a million pounds, and I will help Henry fix it myself.

Moreover, I have a greater advantage than you, I can put the bottom, you and Charles can't do it.

Maybe I can negotiate a valuation of 300 million, Henry’s 4.5% is 13.5 million pounds, which is more than 9 million ~ lightnovelpub.net~ etc." Charles is upset this time, the ducality is indeed worth Tens of millions of pounds, but that is the land plus the farms and pastures on the land and some industries that have such a high value.

The real money that can be made is only one or two million pounds a year.

If the year is not good and the farms and pastures fail to harvest, it is possible that less than one million a year is possible.

Moreover, once he takes over the Duke's collar, it is equivalent to financial independence, and he has to pay the money to dozens of employees who serve him.

Charles looked at Li Changheng and said, "Henry, it's definitely not possible to have Anne come out for an interview. She can't let go of etiquette and dispute with others, it is destined that she is definitely not a suitable negotiator.

I have to let Andrew and I come to this matter. Besides, the lawyers and accountants in our hands are more professional and more confidential than the ones you are looking for outside."

Now it was Annie's turn to quit.

Where can I get the freedom and comfort of my own money with my boyfriend's money?

Li Changheng just wanted to say, you three brothers and sisters together.

Then I thought that when a woman had money, she might not be as obedient as she is now.

He immediately changed his words, "Except for my request, that diamond must be obtained, OK?"

When the two brothers Charles and Andrew nod their heads, they felt dissatisfied when they thought that the diamond was worth 5 million pounds.

When Annie heard about the diamond, a smile appeared on her face, holding Li Changheng's arm, and silently thinking about what jewelry she wanted to turn the diamond into.

While talking, the convoy came across Knightsbridge and was about to turn into the road to Buckingham Palace.

Li Changheng hurriedly pressed the switch of the partition and said to the driver, "Go to Kensington Garden Street."
