Chapter 102 "Medicine" (8) Ditua also vaguely heard about Huang Xuan's mortgage of a large number of works of art

Of course, no one told him that it was 1

2 billion

As soon as he thought about it, he smiled and said," does Mr

Huang want the bank to sell it or mortgage it

"" I'll go to sotheby's for sale

" Huang Xuan smiled and said," it's better to take out a mortgage, but let me tell you first, this is the jewelry passed down from my family

There is no certificate of identification

" Ditua chuckled and said," switzerland doesn't have that many rules

" His smile was playful

In fact, diamond smuggling has always been a major channel for diamond sales

The international diamond industry has a recognized rule: as long as the tax on diamond imports exceeds 5 % - this is the normal over-the-counter transaction (the cost of importing through irregular channels), the smuggler has a profit margin

Because it was so easy to carry diamonds through customs, when china set a 17 % import duty on diamonds, many businesses in Shanghai became rich overnight on the basis of gray

Unlike the Citibank, the swiss banking union never minded mortgaging all kinds of risky assets, backed by confidentiality laws, and the value of the collateral was far more important than the source of the collateral - was there anything harder than diamonds

Ditua's laughter woke Huang Xuan up

He patted his head and realized what he had done wrong

He originally wanted to contact the Citi, but he forgot about the advantages of the company

But it was a mistake

If the Citi hadn't eaten so much of his interest, the capitalists might have lost interest in helping out in the conflict in the united states

All the diamonds purchased at p 101 were carats, and most of the later purchases were more than 5 carats

When it came time to leave, the rumored americans took out more than 10 carats of heavyweights - to be clear, the most transparent commodity in the world, diamonds, Its fia international offer was only 10

99 carats

In other words, the scarcity of diamonds over 11 carats was no longer necessary

Of course, the bigger the better, the better

A 10-carat diamond with the lowest 4c grade is worth only $ 2000 per carat, while the highest is worth $ 178,000 - no low-grade diamond can be selected by Lorraine

Back in Nanjing in a hurry, Ditua invited six appraisers, from Su Fubi (sotheby's) and christie's, as well as translators and assistants, with a total of more than 20 people

This was completely different from Aubrey

Ditua, who belonged to the Swiss union bank's private property management company in asia, had european rights and style

Although his" sex" may be very american, when he worked, he was strict and earnest throughout

Coincidentally, one of the Su Fubi's visitors, Huang Xuan, was familiar with the auctioneer, Liu Ziqing, who was selling stamps for the first time

The mild-mannered middle-aged man walked quietly behind a few foreigners and smiled when he saw huang xuan

Slightly surprised, he remembered that Liu Ziqing was just an auctioneer

He greeted everyone and walked up to Liu Ziqing and asked," Mr

Liu is good at jewelry

"" Not at all

" Liu ziqing smiled and said," I'm here to translate for Daniel

" He pointed to a black man with thick lips

" Welcome

" Huang Xuan shook hands with Daniel gently

Liu ziqing said a few words to Daniel and said," before I came, Mr

Derek told me to find a way to persuade Mr

Huang to auction a batch of diamonds at the Su Fubi

I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance

" After he finished speaking, he looked at Huang Xuan's expression, who smiled and said," these diamonds are all left for me at home

I only invited you here because I don't have a certificate of appraisal

How can we auction them off

"" These are easy to handle

" When liu ziqing said this, he lowered his voice, his eyelids unblinking, and it was very chinese

In fact, Huang Xuan occasionally liked this chinese style

He was used to patting Liu Ziqing on the shoulder with a" sexual" pat, and said very mature," let's talk later

" This action stunned Liu Ziqing, who was familiar with Huang Xuan, and he immediately smiled

Speaking of which, ever since he came into contact with veteran managers like sloan, in Huang Xuan's mind, if I didn't lose in negotiations with ford, then I wouldn't lose in negotiations with anyone

Whether it was right or wrong, he relaxed a lot

In Kailai's suite, the hotel waiter prepared coffee for everyone present and left quietly

Huang xuan pretended to go back to his room to get something

When he came out, he was carrying a full three-month cake box

When he opened the lid in front of his head, the room fell silent

Everyone present, whether it was the appraiser or the interpreter, looked straight and dumbfounded

Anyone who saw hundreds of diamonds gathered together would probably have the same expression

When he took it back that day, he looked at it for a long time, but now he didn't feel anything

He picked out a diamond the size of a finger and threw it in his hand, saying," please

" Some of the mixed" random" answers came out

Daniel took the lead in picking up a magnifying glass and looked at it

Since it was a mortgage, he could only calculate the price according to the standards of the cia

The main question was to determine the grade of 4c

In addition to his initial surprise, Ditua maintained an expression of amazement

It seemed that he was envious of the rich family of The huang family

In fact, if the The huang family really had the heart to collect jewelry, it would be much more important now

Sipping his coffee gently, Lorraine had already given him an estimate of about $ 380 million before bringing it over

If everything was normal, the final estimate would be similar

Ditua looked at it for a while, then walked over to Huang Xuan and smiled

" Mr

Huang is the most amazing eastern millionaire I have ever seen

"" That's my grandfather

" Huang Xuan looked away from him intentionally or unintentionally

" When will this loan be ready

"" Swiss union bank is the most efficient bank

As long as the valuation is confirmed, there will be no problem for a day at most

" Ditua boasted and glanced at the big diamond in Daniel's hand

It was a big guy with a total of 20 carats

At a price of 10 carats, it was worth more than three million us dollars

In fact, it was worth more than five times the price

Using an inappropriate metaphor, Huang Xuan was at a loss for words at the moment

When you often" rubbed" dozens of large diamonds in your hands and saw things that were billions of times more expensive than glass, it didn't feel very deep

He seemed to focus on the traffic downstairs

He said softly," then please help me buy about 100 million us dollars worth of crude oil in stock and send it to Port Santos as before

" Ditua almost suspected that huang xuan was buying oil for the" government," but he agreed

The banking consortium was the organization that despised the law the most

As long as they needed it, they would change the law at any time for the profit in the next few years, regardless of the consequences of such changes
