Chapter 582 581. How Could This Be Like This (5)
The processing methods proposed by Competer and others have obviously been carefully considered, and they accurately hit the psychological needs of pickers.
As someone said, as long as one or two rough opals can be found in this land, it can almost earn back the principal.
According to the distribution rules of gem pits, rough opals are densely distributed in this land.
Immediately, someone was about to make a move, stepped forward and said, "Dude, I'll choose this one, the one in the middle, but 20,000 yuan is a bit too expensive, let's make it cheaper, we are old acquaintances."
Competer refused: "Don't even think about it, Rob, you know, if I didn't pity you, I wouldn't sell it for 20,000 yuan. So don't bargain with me, OK?"
"Hey, guys, I found another piece!" A black youth lifted an opal wrapped in stone from the chaotic rocks, and the light was shining.
Herbalife waved her fist excitedly: "Yeah!"
Coincidentally, Li Du, who released small flying insects to search in the field, also got something. He immediately went to say: "Mr. Competer, I will rent a place, and I will not bargain with you."
Seeing his first bid, the black man was a little surprised, but his goal was to make money, and if Li Du was willing to pay, that would be fine.
"Which place did you buy?" Competer asked.
Li Du showed a hesitant expression, pointed to the vast wasteland and said: "This one, oh no, that one, forget it, this is it."
Seeing his greedy look of wanting to take all the land, Compete laughed and said, "I know you made a lot of money from this, but you should actually buy the whole place and continue to make a lot of money."
"Or you can buy both places you like." A picker urged him.
Li Du showed a bewildered expression, and said, "Who said I made a lot of money from here? I went to Mr. Owen to learn some knowledge about opal from him."
It happened that Owen wrapped him a cash red envelope of 20,000 yuan, two thick stacks of US dollar bills, and he took it out and handed it to Competer.
Someone said enviously: "Damn it, this bastard is really rich."
"Chinese people just like to carry cash with them, no wonder they are always being robbed."
"That's because they have money. If you want to bring 20,000 yuan in cash with you, you must have 20,000 yuan first!"
Seeing the green cash, Compete's eyes also turned green, and he said excitedly: "It's okay guys, if you don't bring cash, you can do online banking transactions. I can accept online banking transfers!"
Li Du gave him the money, and a piece of land in the central area belonged to him.
With his example, other ore pickers were tempted, but 20,000 yuan is not a small amount, they still did not pay directly, but continued to wait and see.
They want to see if Competer and his party can dig out the rough opal again, or if Li Du can dig it out.
But someone is ready to make a move, but they don't have 20,000 yuan, and they are joining together to pool money to buy a piece of land.
Li Du whistled, and Godzilla and Da Ao took out their tools and started working. The three of them quickly lifted the stones to find the rough opal.
Where no one was paying attention, Sophie made a phone call, which was what Li Du had ordered her to do.
Competer and the others worked very hard to design this scam. They buried a lot of fake opals in these lands. These are the things Li Du found through the little flying insects just now.
He had pinpointed the location of several counterfeit opals before he bought them, so after he set out to find them, he lifted the stones and found one in a short time.
Receiving the opal, he exclaimed, "Hey guys, I found it, I found this thing!"
Many pickers looked at him with envy and hatred again, and shouted: "This bastard is lucky!" "He picked up another gem!" "He's going to get rich!"
In addition, they were even more excited, stopped waiting and watching, and took out their mobile phones to prepare for the transaction.
"Hey Competit, give me this, I'll take this."
"I've taken a fancy to this piece, it's mine, sell it to me!"
"We bought this..."
Compete was busy accepting the transfer, smiling and complacent.
In addition to the heart-pounding hands, there are still some who are still looking at Li Du.
In their eyes, the rough opal in Li Du's hand radiated light. What they couldn't see was that a small black flying insect was lying on it and trying to absorb the energy of time.
Li Du kept waving the rough opal in his hand, looking as if he was celebrating excitedly.
A picker was very upset when he saw it, and muttered: "God bless him to throw away the gem."
Opal is not outstanding in hardness and brittleness. It is a very delicate gemstone. Its value depends entirely on its bright color. If it is dropped on the ground, it will easily break.
God seems to have heard his voice, the rough opal in Li Du's hand did not throw out, but he shook his hand, the opal wrapped in the rough flew out!
The opal flew out and landed on a piece of ore. With a crisp sound of 'baji', it broke into several pieces immediately!
Seeing this scene, the people who followed Li Du gloated and burst out laughing, and then a few seconds later, it seemed that someone pressed the stop button, and they all stopped laughing suddenly, with surprised expressions on their faces.
Not far away, the people around Compete clamoring for a deal didn't see what happened before. They noticed that the atmosphere suddenly became weird, and they asked, "What's wrong?"
A picker said weakly: "The opal in the Chinese's hand was thrown out and shattered."
The other pickers laughed, and someone said: "This is really unfortunate, the original stone can be broken under the package, it's really unlucky."
Opal is still very beautiful after being broken, but its value will drop sharply. There is a kind of fake opal that is assembled into large pieces with broken opal.
The picker said: "No, there is no rough stone package, yes, yes, the opal fell off from the rough stone and was thrown out!"
"It's impossible!" Someone immediately denied it.
Yes, normally this is impossible. After millions of years of bonding, the stone layer and opal have been integrated, and the opal cannot be removed alone, so its value is lower than that of pure opal.
But this is possible with fakes, because they use glue to hold the opal and stone layers together.
Li Du used small flying insects to absorb the energy of time in order to destroy the glue and make it lose its stickiness.
The broken fake opal was still shining brightly on the ground, and he looked at the stone in his hand blankly and asked, "How could this be?"
Brende and Alicia went up to comfort him, saying, "Maybe your gem is not tightly bonded to the original stone..."
Li Du interrupted them and said: "Yes, they are not glued together tightly, they seem to be glued together, you see!"
Inside the stone layer, there is a layer of glue left after it solidified, which seems to be a plastic layer.
Seeing this, Brende and Alicia were also dumbfounded. Brende asked the same question as Li Du: "How could this be?"
