Chapter 49 The Mysterious Dragon People, Hong Kong Island Mystery

A week later.

Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong Island.

Elizabeth Hotel.

A middle-aged man wearing a black top hat sneaked up to a British businessman who was having dinner in the corner of the hotel.

After carefully observing his surroundings, the middle-aged man asked cautiously.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Vincent? Mr. Vincent of the East India Jewellers?"

"Yes, dear sir, you were the one who contacted me on the phone and told me that you had a rare jewel you wanted to sell, right?"

Vincent stared at the wretched Dragon man in front of him with some dissatisfaction.

"Excuse me, but you don't look like you have any valuable treasures. Why are you being so secretive?"

Vincent was a little disappointed.

The Dragon man in front of him had a very vulgar temperament, and judging from his clothes, although he had tried his best to wash them, the shabby suit still showed his poor condition.

How could a person like this have any rare treasures in his hands?

If this person had not been introduced to him by the agent he trusted the most, Vincent would have wanted to walk away right now.

However, since he was already here, Vincent decided to take a look at the quality of the other party's things first.

"you!"

Seeing Vincent look down on him so much, the middle-aged Dragon man's expression changed obviously.

In a fit of rage, he got angry.

But then, as if by magic, he showed a flattering smile.

"Mr. Vincent has misunderstood. Although I look down and out now, my ancestors were authentic people from the imperial capital of Dragon Kingdom, and they are related to the old Buddha!"

"It's true that our family has fallen on hard times, but even a rotten boat has three pounds of nails, and who doesn't have a few family heirlooms? Don't you agree?"

"Oh? So, you're actually a noble?"

Hearing this, Vincent's eyes turned and he immediately became interested.

If what this Dragon man said was true, then he might really have some good stuff in his hands.

After all, the Dragon Kingdom civilization has been passed down for thousands of years, and countless treasures have been left behind. A down-and-out noble like him would probably keep some of them.

Nowadays, the prices of Dragon Country's calligraphy and antiques are not low...

"Where is the thing? Let me see!"

"Mr. Vincent, it's not that I don't want to show you, but...is he safe here? This thing of mine is very precious. What if someone gets greedy..."

The Dragon man wearing a black hat looked around worriedly and asked.

"That's enough! My patience is limited!"

"If you want to sell this to me, take it out now, otherwise, please do as you please!"

When Vincent saw the look on the Dragon Countryman's face, he was already quite certain that he had a treasure in his hand.

But he still acted as if he didn't care and snorted coldly.

"Okay... okay! Mr. Vincent, please open your eyes..."

Hearing this, the Dragon man was afraid that Vincent would really leave in anger, so he cautiously took out a small, exquisitely crafted sachet from his chest pocket.

Then, he carefully untied it and shook the contents into his palm.

The moment he saw that thing, Vincent immediately felt his breathing stagnate and his heart skipped a beat!

Because, he saw that what was placed in the Dragon Country man’s palm were actually more than a dozen dazzling diamonds!

Among them, seven or eight weigh 6-7 points, and the remaining larger ones are all over one carat!

Moreover, if his eyes were not blurry, one of the diamonds in this pile even had a faint pink hue!

It is obviously the legendary pink diamond!

Pink diamond!

This thing can only be mined in the Argyle mining area in Australia on the entire earth, and the production rate is less than 0.1%!

Among them, only 10% of pink diamonds are larger than 0.2 carats. Diamonds as big as the one in the hands of this Dragon man are extremely rare in the world!

Previously at a Sotheby’s auction, a pink diamond this big was sold for a sky-high price of nearly $100 million!

Suddenly, a strong look of greed flashed in Vincent's eyes.

If I could get this pink diamond and resell it, I would definitely make a lot of money!

Even if it is still calculated at 100 million US dollars, apart from the money paid to this Dragon countryman, he can still earn more than 90!

This is almost catching up with my current assets!

Although there were storms in his heart, as a competent businessman, Vincent forced himself to suppress his emotions.

He casually fiddled with the diamond in the other person's hand with his fingers and spoke casually.

"I thought you brought some rare treasure, but it turns out to be just an ordinary diamond."

"My friend, although this thing was precious in the past, it is really worthless now..."

"But, since you were introduced by my friend, I'll give you a friendly price."

"What do you think of $5000?"

As Vincent spoke, he confidently held up five fingers.

In his opinion, if he offered this price, the other party would definitely agree immediately.

After all, $5000 is not a small sum in this era. It is enough for this down-and-out prodigal son to live comfortably and extravagantly for two or three years!

"Only $5000? Mr. Vincent, isn't that a bit unkind of you?"

Unexpectedly, after hearing Vincent's offer, the Dragon man acted contrary to his usual behavior and spoke with great dissatisfaction.

"You don't really think I don't know the value of these diamonds?"

"With $5000, you can't even buy a scrap of this pink diamond!"

"Damn...you actually knew this was Pink Diamond?"

Vincent's eyelids twitched when he heard this, and he knew that his wishful thinking had gone to waste.

"You're kidding! After all, I've been around and seen it all!"

The middle-aged Dragon man sneered.

"Mr. Vincent, we are all thousand-year-old foxes, so let's not play Liao Zhai here."

"I know a pink diamond this size can fetch around $100 million at auction, but I can't wait that long and I don't have the channels to participate."

"That's why I'm going to give you a discount... Without further ado, let's go with the auction price of $100 million, you get 6 and I'll get 4!"

"$40. You take this pink diamond, and I'll give you the rest. Let's just consider it a good relationship."

"If you agree, we'll make a deal. If you don't agree, I'll go ask your colleagues again."

"Anyway, what Hong Kong Island lacks the least right now is people who want to get rich..."

Hearing this, Vincent's face became solemn and painful.

Originally, he could make more than 90 US dollars in profit from the business, but now, after this Dragon man raised the price, his profit became a "pitiful" less than 50 US dollars.

But it is better to make some money than no money, and if you add those ordinary diamonds, you can make a lot of money.

After pondering for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said.

"Okay! 40 is 40!"

"Sign the contract! I'll give you the money right away!"

……

After a series of busy work, the middle-aged Dragon man successfully signed the contract with Vincent.

After confirming that the HSBC check in his hand was correct, the Dragon handed the bag of diamonds to Vincent.

Then, he disappeared outside the hotel in a hurry.

However, just as Vincent was constantly congratulating himself on his good luck.

After turning the corner, the Dragon man came to a dark alley, quickly took off his clothes and changed his clothes.

A few minutes later, the middle-aged Dragon man who had just been dressed like a dandy boy appeared.

He suddenly transformed himself into a middle-aged soldier wearing a bald military uniform, with an unshaven beard and looking a little shabby.

He walked out of the alley humming a little tune.

Moreover, a small box appeared in his hand without him noticing.

Then he entered a telephone booth and made a call.

"Hello, are you Mr. Bach from Hans? Haha, it doesn't matter who I am..."

"The important thing is, I now have a sapphire dug out from the Great Bird Emperor's Tomb. It's even bluer than the 'Heart of the Ocean'!"

"I wonder if you are interested in acquiring..."
