Chapter 394 Diamonds and National Bonds
To say that Yang Jing's favorite thing, apart from those antiques, is this kind of gemstone that is a collection of the essence of heaven and earth.
It's not that I like these gemstones because of their high value. Of course, whether it's ruby or sapphire, they are all gemstones with extremely high value. The names of the four recognized gemstones in the world are not for nothing.If it was because of the high value, Yang Jing would have something with a higher value than that, such as glass-type jadeite, or collectible Hetian jade.
Yang Jing likes these red and sapphires because these gems are like energy speed chargers for the holy ring.
To use the practice in comprehension novels as an analogy, if absorbing natural treasure gas from oil fields is an ordinary practice of exhaling vitality, then these red and sapphires are equivalent to spiritual stones that can be absorbed directly.
Now in the storage space, Yang Jing keeps some red sapphires in reserve at all times, in case there is an urgent need for energy, these red sapphires can be used to quickly replenish energy, instead of looking for oil fields to absorb it.
However, during this period of time, the natural precious qi was used quite powerfully, and the natural precious qi stored in the red and sapphires in the space was almost consumed. As a result, a large number came now, which was enough for Yang Jing to use for a while.
This kind of good thing that can replenish energy anytime and anywhere must never be let go, nothing to say, put it away!
There were still twelve boxes left, Yang Jing opened the top box, but there was nothing in this box except some small black boxes.
Yang Jing was also curious about what was in these small black boxes, so he took out one, opened the nose button, and found that all the loose diamonds in this small box were large.
These diamonds are all uncut loose diamonds, but even if they are loose diamonds, Yang Jing can tell that the quality of these loose diamonds is very good.Although the grade evaluation of loose diamonds is not as strict as the 4C standard for polished diamonds, it must also comply with the three aspects of the 4C standard, namely carat, color and clarity.
Only top-level loose diamonds in these three aspects, coupled with top-level cutting, can finally carve out a top-quality finished diamond.
Yang Jing is also a person who has experienced the baptism of top-quality diamonds. Of course, he can tell the fineness of these loose diamonds in front of him.
When he went to the United States for the second time, Yang Jing got a totem pole from the Indian Mazululu at the flea market in Beaumont. As a result, he found not only a treasure map suspected of being the treasure of the last Russian tsar, but also a totem pole. Eight top-quality gemstones were found inside, including four top-level loose diamonds.
The loose diamonds in front of me are naturally not comparable to the four top-quality loose diamonds found from the totem pole. No matter in size, clarity or color, they are far inferior to those four loose diamonds, but in general, these Carat loose diamonds can be regarded as top loose diamonds in the current diamond market.
Most of these loose diamonds are more than two carats, and even after cutting, they can form carat diamonds, so these loose diamonds are of great value.
Estimated according to the fineness of these loose diamonds, a one-carat loose diamond must be at least more than five thousand dollars. If a loose diamond is cut out of one carat diamond, it can easily sell for tens of thousands of dollars.
It's no wonder that these loose diamonds were collected by Gaddafi and his sons. With their identities and wealth, how could they collect some loose diamonds of poor quality?
Yang Jing used his appraisal skills to appraise it, and the answer given by Shengjie was really not simple.
These loose diamonds are all from the most famous Venetia diamond mine in South Africa, which can be said to be the diamond mine with the best diamond quality in South Africa and even in the world.
South Africa's diamonds are world-famous, and Kimberlite diamonds have long been synonymous with gem-quality diamonds.However, as a major producer of diamonds, South Africa's diamond output is not the largest in the world.
The world's largest producer of diamonds is Australia.At present, the proven diamond reserves are 25 billion carats, about 500 tons.Among them, Australia's proven diamond reserves are as high as 6.5 million carats, and Australia mines the largest number of diamonds in the world every year.
However, only about 5% of diamonds produced in Australia can reach gem-quality diamonds, which means that the annual production of gem-quality diamonds in Australia as a whole is not as much as the gem-quality diamonds produced by the Vitnia Diamond Mine.
As the best diamond mine in the world, Vitonia Diamond Light produces half of its output that can reach gem-quality diamonds!
This small box of gem-quality loose diamonds is all from the Vitignia diamond mine.I don't know how many methods Gaddafi and his son used to collect so many gem-quality diamonds.
This kind of small box is layered. A box is divided into three layers, and each layer has about 30 loose diamonds.At the bottom of the small box is the legal "ID card" issued by IDC, the International Diamond Council, to these loose diamonds.
Diamonds mined cannot be sold on the market. These diamonds mined from the mine must pass a certificate issued by an authoritative organization, proving that these diamonds are diamonds that can be legally circulated.Only with a certificate issued by an authoritative organization can these diamonds enter the market in a fair manner.
Diamonds without certificates are "black households". Even if they are listed and circulated, they are also called smuggling.
The International Diamond Council is the world's recognized four diamond authority.As long as these diamonds have a certificate issued by the International Diamond Council, they can be listed and circulated at a reasonable price.Naturally, the price is not comparable to that of smuggled diamonds without proof.
There are more than a hundred diamonds in this small box, and the value of the diamonds in this small box exceeds 200 million US dollars!
And there are eleven such small boxes in this big box.
The value of this large box of loose diamonds alone exceeds 2000 million US dollars!
It's just that Yang Jing really doesn't like diamonds.The value of this thing is indeed high, but to Yang Jing, it is really useless except for its high value.The natural treasure contained in diamonds is far worse than red sapphires, even worse than black opals.
However, these loose diamonds are very valuable anyway, and Ge Ge's aunt and uncle run a jewelry chain store, these loose diamonds with legal certificates must be very popular with the couple.
Even if Ge Ge's aunt and uncle can't eat these loose diamonds, there are more top jewelry companies in the world who can eat these loose diamonds, and the price will never be lower!
I didn't say it, take it away!
Opened a large box again, but there were still some small boxes inside.
However, what is contained in these small boxes is not diamonds, but cash that is more surprising than diamonds.
The first small box that Yang Jing opened contained a full box of green "Franklin". Yang Jing lifted it and felt the weight. It was about 20 kilograms.After a rough estimate, it can be estimated that the face value of this small box is about 200 million U.S. dollars.
There are a total of two US dollar bills with a face value of 400 in this large box, a total of [-] million US dollars.
In addition to these two small boxes containing dollars, there are four smaller boxes that are slightly larger.After Yang Jing opened it, good guy, the cash inside is even more eye-catching.
Among the four slightly larger boxes, all are filled with red and blue euros, and they are also the kind of [-] denomination euros that are rarely seen in the market!
There are 1000 euros in this small box, and one box is a full 4000 million euros!Four boxes are [-] million!
Although the euro is not the only international settlement currency, the euro is also quite powerful and worth more than the dollar.Moreover, although this five-hundred-euro banknote is rare in the market, it can be exchanged directly in major European banks.
There are 4000 million euros and 400 million US dollars in cash in this big box!
Although it is far less valuable than the two boxes of red and sapphires just now, it is cash, and there is nothing more gratifying than cash.
Gold, diamonds, and gems are of high value, but they cannot be used directly. If you want to use them, you have to find places all over the world to exchange them.Where is the convenience of cash?If you fancy something and want to buy it, just throw out a wad of cash, what a rich girl!
Yang Jing opened the box again, but it turned out that there was still cash inside.Another 4000 million euros plus $400 million!
It is estimated that this is the cash prepared by Gaddafi's son Mutashim for himself. I am afraid that if it fails, he has nearly [-] million US dollars in cash in his hand. He can go anywhere in the world, and with this value close to With a cash base of [-] million US dollars, there is absolutely nothing to worry about for the rest of your life.
It's a pity that Mutashim, like his father, died early in the Libyan civil war. The cash he carefully prepared was all cheaper than Yang Jing.
Yang Jing opened the tenth box today, but it turned out that there was still a small black box inside.
"Damn, did you get into trouble with this kind of little black box today?" Yang Jing shook his head with a wry smile and said to himself, and opened one of the small boxes casually, but it turned out that there were neither diamonds nor cash in it. It was a stack of large sheets of paper that looked like newspapers.
"This is." Yang Jing picked up one and looked at it. After a long time, he was convinced that these newspaper-like pieces of paper turned out to be bearer bonds of the United States, and the face value of one piece was as high as 100 million US dollars!
U.S. bearer treasury bonds are divided into three types: short-term, medium-term and long-term. The bearer U.S. treasury bonds in this small box are long-term, that is, bonds with a maturity of 10 to 30 years.
According to the issuance requirements of U.S. treasury bonds, the minimum face value of this kind of long-term bonds is one thousand dollars, and if they are purchased in large quantities, they are all multiples of one thousand dollars. bond.
There are a total of [-] bonds with a face value of one million dollars in this small box, which is [-] million dollars in total!
This thing is the same as cash, you can find any bank in the United States and you can exchange it into US dollars, and there are interest rates!
In addition to the U.S. treasury bonds, Yang Jing found unregistered treasury bonds of several countries, including British treasury bonds, German treasury bonds, French treasury bonds, and Italian treasury bonds, among several other small boxes.Combined, these bonds are worth over half a billion dollars!
This kind of good thing, which is comparable to cash, has nothing to say, just take it away!
