Soon, the park staff came over, and no one was more happy than they were about the discovery of a large diamond in the park.
Because the discovery of large diamonds means becoming famous to them, and when the park becomes famous, more tourists will come, and with more tourists, the park will have more income. With more park income, their wages and benefits will increase.
can be increased.
Therefore, the park staff have a very good attitude towards every owner of a discovered gem.
After a series of appraisals, the diamond was finally rated as excellent. As for the four standards, Han Kongque did not take it seriously. Anyway, the purity of this diamond is not bad. If calculated according to the diamond ranking here, the excellence level is in the 100th place.
about.
However, this diamond is not small, weighing a full 32 carats, so the price is not low.
According to park staff, after cutting and polishing, the diamond should cost more than $20,000.
Glancing at the staff member, Han Kongque found that the greed in his eyes was not concealed at all.
"Twenty thousand dollars? You guys haven't woken up yet? No selling." After hearing the price from the staff, Langdem took the diamond back directly.
"Please believe us, the price of diamonds is determined by 4c parameters. The more colorless the color, the more valuable it is, because the color of the diamond is equivalent to a high-quality light filter, which reduces the escape of reflected light. The whiter the color of the diamond.
, the stronger the sparkling color of the diamond.
Similarly, colorless diamonds are rarer than yellow-toned diamonds. According to the different degrees of color of the stone from light to dark, the grades are divided into d, e, f, g, h, etc. The color of most gem-level diamonds ranges from colorless to dark.
Between light yellow.
Below is a grade chart corresponding to the color of the diamond. If you don’t believe our appraisal, you can refer to this table to determine the price of this diamond.” A staff member’s face became very ugly.
Langham's face didn't look good, because he thought the staff was a big liar and a big liar. The diamond they found was so big, how could it be only worth 20,000 US dollars?
"Are you sure that the color of our diamond is L grade? If you can be sure, then sign your name. If there is a problem with the appraisal of this diamond in the future, you need to be responsible."
Langham didn't care how ugly the faces of these staff members were. Compared to the losses they might suffer, their faces were insignificant.
Han Peacock looked at them very interestingly. Is there anyone here who dares to cheat?
"These guys have no character at all, so you must be careful with them. Our diamond is 32 carats. If the quality deteriorates, do you know how much we will lose?" Langdem whispered to Han Peacock.
Han Peacock nodded. There are four aspects that determine the price of diamonds. In terms of color, if it reaches D grade, the value will be higher.
Diamonds come in a variety of natural colors, ranging from precious colorless (white after cutting) to rare light blue, pink to slightly yellow.
The brighter and colorless it is, the more penetrable white light is, and the more colorful it becomes through refraction and dispersion.
Diamond color grading is determined by technicians repeatedly comparing the diamonds to be graded with standard color reference stones in a professional laboratory grading environment.
The whitest diamond is designated as D grade (that is, starting from the first letter of diamond). It is divided into 11 grades, in order: d, e, f, g, h, i, j, k, l,
m,n.
Although Han Peacock didn't know how this was classified, the color of this tree was considered white. Even if it didn't reach the whitest grade, it was impossible to get to the L level, so Han Peacock was not optimistic about the character of these staff members.
"This diamond of yours is indeed very big, but the accuracy is too poor and the color is not good. It is already very good that such a diamond can sell for 20,000 US dollars." Another staff member said with great disdain.
"Is this the appraisal you gave? Bah. You rubbish, moths, you can still be appraisers like you? I'm going to sue you." Langdem was furious. He was really angry.
"Do you know diamonds? We dare to say that this diamond is worth 20,000 US dollars. It is worth 20,000 US dollars. If you don't believe it, you can go to an outside shop to have it appraised. The price they appraise is definitely not even worth 20,000 US dollars.
"
"You said the purity of this diamond is not good? I don't know how it was identified?" Han Peacock grabbed Langdem and asked directly.
As for the purity of this diamond, just based on a few glances by the staff just now, they dare to say that it is the worst grade?
This phenomenon is the same as those appraisers in China who unconscionably say that antiques are fake and let the owners of the antiques sell them at cabbage prices.
Therefore, we can't blame Langdem for doubting these people, and Han Peacock was also very suspicious of these people.
"Are you an appraiser, or are we? We are professionals. With a little appraisal, we can tell that your diamond is junk. Now I think this diamond is only worth ten thousand dollars at most. If you don't believe me, just ask.
No one would pay $10,010 for this diamond."
After the staff member finished speaking, he turned around and left without leaving the identification certificate.
"Did you record their faces just now? There must be some inside story." Langdem had a long mouth and didn't know what to do.
Han Peacock smiled and said: "What's the inside story? It's just a monopoly. The sale of diamonds is monopolized in the hands of a few big companies. They issued an appraisal certificate and said it was only worth 10,000 US dollars. It was 10,000 US dollars, one more.
People don’t want cents because they don’t dare to offend the upper-level monopoly power departments.”
"Is this okay?" Langdem glared at Han Peacock and asked.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "What's wrong? Otherwise, why would every diamond have an ID card? Is it because diamonds are scarce? No, it's completely because of the need for monopoly.
Just like our diamond, if it needs to be put on the market and circulated, it needs an identity card, and the issuance of the identity determines the price of the diamond. If you can't bring profits to others, of course it is worthless.
So there are a large number of blood diamonds, that is, diamonds without identification. Aren’t these diamonds valuable? It’s just because they are in our hands, so they are not valuable.”
Regarding these, Han Peacock saw very clearly. This world is dark, especially diamonds. They are obviously just a stone, and they are produced in large quantities, but they are speculated into gems, and they are also valuable gems. Inside
Naturally there are huge profits.
And where do these profits come from? Through monopoly, speculation, and market control, the plunder of interests is completed.
And why do participants like Han Peacock want to take a bite of this delicious cake?
If it is just a diamond, let Han Peacock take a bite of the cake, but if you want to eat more, then it will infringe on the interests of others.
Others have been busy for hundreds of years and finally cultivated a big cake. Why should they let you eat it?
There are so many priceless diamonds, one more is not too much for you, and one less is not too much for you. Therefore, if you cannot benefit others, you cannot sell it at a high price without an ID card.
Just like this diamond, if it didn't belong to Han Peacock, it might not be so troublesome, but who told him to be a yellow man?
Although it is said that there cannot be racial discrimination in the United States, this kind of discrimination is ubiquitous. Even if the staff did not show any discrimination against Han Peacock, because he is a yellow race, they will not give a good appraisal.
prove.
"Young man, can I sell it for ten thousand dollars? I want to collect it. If I resell it, I will definitely not get a high price." At this moment, the handsome white guy who is a professional Taobao guy said.
Han Kongque shook his head and said: "I collect it too. Also, as long as I have a piece of identification, I will collect it regardless of whether it is worth anything."
The handsome white guy raised his thumb, nodded and left.
"Are we going to compromise like this?" Langdem said unwillingly.
"There is no way, the appraisal of diamonds has been made too professional. We have to listen to what they say, otherwise you know how to appraise?" Han Peacock looked at Langdem with a smile.
"Of course we don't know how to identify it, but I don't believe that what they identified is correct. Why don't we go to other places to identify it?" Langdem said.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "Ignore those guys, get the ID card of this diamond first. As for the quality, we will talk about it later."
Han Kongque held the diamond in his hand, and his spiritual consciousness invaded it. He couldn't judge anything else, but the purity was OK.
The better the clarity of the diamond, the higher the price. Korean Peacock can see whether there are any flaws. Flaws are also part of the diamond and are the unique marks made by nature on each diamond.
Diamonds are crystallized in the mantle magma deep in the earth. The environment is complex, the ingredients are diverse, the temperature and pressure are extremely high, and after hundreds of millions of years of geological changes, the color, quantity, size, and location of diamonds inevitably contain various impurities.
Degrees constitute varying degrees of influence.
Usually, a 10x magnifying glass is used to examine the interior of the diamond, surface flaws and their impact on brilliance, and then subdivide the clarity level of unmounted diamonds into 10 levels.
Mounted diamonds are divided into 5 levels: excellent, very good, good, better and general.
And this diamond can obviously reach an excellent level, or at least a very good grade, so as long as the diamond has an ID card, Han Kongque is not afraid of not being able to sell it at a high price.
Of course, those monopolies are not afraid of losing profits, because there are several factors that affect diamond prices, including workmanship.
Color, purity, and size are uncontrollable, but workmanship is controllable.
The brilliance of diamonds is due to their unique high refractive index and high dispersion properties. However, uncut diamonds are just ordinary in appearance. Only through accurate calculation, careful design and perfect cutting and polishing can the light be fully refracted from the top surface.
Only then can the diamonds shine brightly. (~^~) For mobile phone users, please visit http://m.piotian.net
