"Such a large gem is enough to support ninety families." Han Peacock said with a smile.
"It can only last for one year." Liu Xu said.
Qin Mingyue said: "If an alexandrite vein is really discovered, it cannot be all alexandrite cat's eyes."
"That's why this thing is expensive! First of all, it has to be an alexandrite, and secondly, it has to form a cat's eye by chance, so it should be sold more expensively." Han Peacock sighed.
Zhou Meiren said with a smile: "Then let's keep it well! At present, the output of alexandrite is very rare. The most important sources are Brazil and Sri Lanka. Others include Myanmar, ******** and Zimbabwe.
The mineral deposits in the Ural Mountains of Russia, where alexandrite was first produced, have been almost exhausted.
Needless to say, the output of alexandrite will definitely become smaller and smaller in the future. If we discover an alexandrite vein here, there is no need to rush to mine it. Maybe within a few years, a few alexandrites will be able to compete with diamonds."
"Haha, if you want to collect all good things, then we don't want to sell anything." Qin Mingyue said the truth.
Han Peacock has this kind of mentality. As long as it is good, he wants to collect it. Otherwise, Han Peacock would not build museums everywhere. This is because he does not want good things to slip away from his hands.
"By the way, why do you want to sell that diamond mine?" Liu Xu suddenly asked.
Han Peacock smiled and said: "What else can it be? Someone has made a high bid, let's exchange benefits!"
Liuxu said with disdain: "With a miser like you, you will give away good things?"
Zhou Meiren said: "If you can get more benefits in exchange, it's not that you can't give it up, but this doesn't seem to be your style."
Han Kongque laughed and said: "It's nothing, I'm just a little worried about some jewelry companies. You see, whether it is tourmaline, emerald, alexandrite, or even jade and other gems that are not produced in large quantities, resources are limited.
, which is obviously not the case with diamonds.”
Zhou Meiren said thoughtfully: "Are you saying you are worried about diamonds?"
Qin Mingyue also said: "It is difficult for artificial diamonds to reach gem level, right?"
Han Kongque spread his hands and said: "Who knows this? So I'm just worried about those large jewelry companies. Who knows how many diamonds these guys have in their hands? Also, what if there is a sudden breakthrough in artificial diamond technology?"
"Then the diamonds in our hands will be almost like glass." Liu Xu said with a smile.
Han Peacock nodded and said: "Yes, the best examples are glass and plastic, and even crystals. If they are not made artificially, what status and price are they?
And what was the situation like when these three things were invented? At the beginning, both glass balls and plastic balls were sold as treasures, and crystals were real treasures in ancient times, but later a large number of
After giving birth, it turns into stone. This is a real-life transformation of jewelry into stone."
Zhou Meiren glanced at Han Peacock and said, "So you don't really want our jewelry company to be involved in the diamond, crystal, and pearl industries?"
Han Kongque said: "You can participate in these industries now, but you can't participate too much. In fact, we won't lose much by doing so. Pearls are a breeding industry and are considered biological products. The price of itself cannot be increased, so there is not much risk. Crystals are also
It’s the same, but it’s a diamond, the risk is too great.”
"Buying at low prices will inevitably lead to falling prices. The price of diamonds is always at a high level, so it is very risky to enter the market at this time." Liu Xu agreed with Han Kongque's point of view.
Qin Mingyue also analyzed uncharacteristically: "That's why you left the market at a high position, so that you can pass all the risks to others."
Han Peacock laughed loudly and said: "As long as it is related to money, I will immediately become extremely shrewd when I see it. As long as it is something that you are not interested in, you don't care at all."
Qin Mingyue rolled her eyes at Han Kongque and said, "If you don't care about money, money won't care about you? Do you think I'm a young lady who doesn't know what it's like to be sad?"
Han Kongque said: "So, I am very concerned about money now. At this time, diamonds are promoted by us, which will definitely attract the attention of many predators. If they don't want the diamond market to collapse, they will take over. At this time, shall we
Can you put forward some conditions by the way?"
"Land swap? This can also save them a lot of money. Is it beneficial to both parties?" Liu Xu asked.
Han Peacock smiled a little proudly: "I don't know about other places, but it must be changed here. After all, we have no foundation in the United States. If we don't use this method to exchange interests, it will be difficult to get just this land."
Got it."
"Has the mining company been established?" Zhou Meiren asked.
Han Kongque said: "We have registered a group company, and the subsidiaries below are all mining companies. They mainly acquire small mining companies with various qualifications. By then, whether they are various metal minerals or oil and natural gas, we will
It has the right to prospect, mine and sell.”
"So, the only thing missing now is the prospecting and mining rights here?" Liu Xu said with a smile.
Han Kongque said: "So we have to speed up the progress. We continue to hide for a while and don't let anyone discover our traces. In just a few days, the mountainous area outside will fall into our hands."
In the following days, Han Kongque hid in the chaotic space, while Liuxu and the others would come to the space to have a tryst with him whenever they were free.
As for Jin Yao and the others, they dug ore in underground mines hundreds of meters deep on a regular basis.
Since enough space was opened up and the machine could be driven into, a large amount of ore was transported directly into the chaotic space.
Their digging method is relatively rough. As long as they find a vein of minerals, they will dig wildly. The excavated raw ore will not be sorted at all, but will be sent directly to the chaotic space for storage.
After a period of intensive excavation, almost all of the veins producing tourmalines and emeralds were dug out.
Of course, there are gem mines in other places, but it is already difficult to discover various gemstones in large quantities. They can only be like other mines, which require a lot of manual digging and searching.
At this time, Han Kongque asked them to change direction, and he continued to wander around underground. As long as he found a mineral vein, he would let the machine dig in along the mineral vein, and while digging a main cave,
It can also collect all the rocks that are most likely to produce gems into the chaotic space.
By the time they opened the third mine, they had already consumed a large amount of excavation machinery. It was not that it was overused, but that it had been damaged by the collapsed mine, and there was no possibility of repair.
"Would any workers dare to go into the mine dug like this to look for gems?" When Liu Xu came to the mine again, she was still a little worried.
The people who dug the mines before were superpowers. They hid in the machines and were not afraid of being buried underground by the collapsed mines, but the same could not be said for ordinary workers?
"Of course ordinary workers cannot enter the mine unprepared like this. When the mining is officially started, the pillars and roofs will be built from the entrance of the mine, otherwise the workers will not be allowed to go down the mine," said Han Kongque.
"Are we going outside?" Soon, Liuxu noticed something unusual.
Originally, I followed Han Kongque out to play in the mine for a while, look for some gems, and visit the gem veins. But today, I obviously walked upwards.
Han Kongque said with a smile: "It's been so long. If I still can't get this land, am I too useless?"
"Has the diamond vein been sold?" Qin Mingyue was most concerned about this.
Han Kongque said: "It should be said that it was exchanged for land a hundred times larger than that piece of land. This is just one of them."
"How big is the area? I mean here." Zhou Meiren asked, but she knew that the area here was not small.
Han Kongque said: "It is two hundred kilometers long and twelve kilometers wide. It includes more than two hundred hills and an open space at the foot of the mountain. Some residences have been built there. We will go live there later."
The clearing at the foot of the mountain that Han Kongque was talking about was actually near the abandoned tourmaline mine where they first discovered emeralds.
Of course, the land here is relatively valuable, so after switching to the mine, Han Peacock sent people to buy land in the surrounding areas. Now he has a lot of pastures, farms, and forests in his hands throughout Nevada.
Especially the forests and wastelands surrounding the Sierra Nevada Mountains. These places that were originally close to the mountains and inaccessible will definitely have a rapid increase in population in the future, so if you buy these lands, the value will definitely increase quickly.
As long as the huge emerald vein here is exposed, it will definitely attract a large number of treasure hunters. Although it is impossible to form a gold rush, it is not too difficult to attract hundreds of thousands of people to work and live here.
There are a lot of unemployed people in the United States. As long as opportunities arise, many people will come to seek help. Han Peacock understands this very clearly.
Walking out of the mountains and looking at the vast communities at the foot of the mountains, Qin Mingyue said with a smile: "If I didn't tell you, I would have thought this was China!"
"It is built according to domestic residential areas. These are mainly for housing future workers. The place we live is at the foot of the mountain. It is a villa area where rich people live." Han Kongque said with a smile.
"If you don't say you are rich, others will know it," Liu Xu said.
"I think you are afraid of being attacked by others, right?" Qin Mingyue knew that Han Kongque was full of bad intentions, and now that he had settled in a gem mining area, the safety level had been greatly improved.
Han Kongque laughed and said, "Ming Yue still understands me. Someone must have opened the lid of the diamond mine now. I just don't know if they will go crazy when they see the ore layer below."
"What other outrageous thing have you done?" Liu Xu asked in surprise.
Han Kongque laughed twice before explaining: "It's nothing, it's just targeted. Let Tu Lingzai dig out some of the better diamonds below and let those people become the receivers." (
