“No, your diamond won’t exceed seventy thousand yuan.” Wu Tian’s tone was also very confident.
He had previously come into contact with various types of diamonds from an old professor. Back then, he had only been interested in them and had even specifically learned how to determine the grade of a diamond.
He did not dare to say that it was a high-grade diamond, but he could tell at a glance that it was one of those low-grade diamonds.
The diamond cutting techniques in front of him were ordinary. The color and purity were clearly not that high, just a few ordinary diamonds.
“What right do you have to say that my diamonds are worth tens of thousands of dollars?” Chen Junhui was also a bit worried.
He felt that this brat was purposely belittling the value of the diamonds, making him feel embarrassed in the Liu Clan.
“The value of the diamonds is not up to debate, there’s no need for us to argue about it. You can find a professional appraiser to verify it with you.” Wu Tian was too lazy to argue and suggested.
“Alright, I’ll contact the appraiser now.” Chen Junhui had the same idea as he quickly took out his phone and started to make calls.
He had to prove to the Liu Clan that these were rare diamonds. The cutting techniques were all crafted by top masters and were definitely worth more than fifty million.
He wouldn’t bring several tens of thousands of dollars worth of diamonds to embarrass himself.
Today, he had to let Liu Jun know the value of the diamonds and their sincerity. It proved that his diamonds were indeed of high value.
At the same time, he also wanted to ruthlessly slap Wu Tian’s face, making this ignorant kid lose face in front of everyone.
Everyone quietly waited for the appraiser to arrive. They were all curious about the value of these South African diamonds.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, they saw an old man in his seventies walking in with a yellow bag on his back, followed by two attendants.
This was the famous appraiser of Jiangnan. He was recognized as a living fossil in the gemstone world and had great authority in determining the grade of diamonds.
“Master Jin, I am here to welcome you.” Upon seeing the appraiser, Liu Jun led the crowd to welcome him.
“You’re welcome. I heard that you have top-notch diamonds. I’m here to broaden my horizons.” Master Jin was too lazy to waste words with him, so he went straight to the point. “Where are the diamonds? Quick, show them to me.”
“Here.”
Chen Junhui quickly handed the packet of diamonds to the Master.
Master Jin took the diamond and looked at it, then he took out the magnifying glass and carefully observed it.
After looking at it for a while, he put away the magnifying glass and expressionlessly said, “I’ve finished looking at it. I hope you will excuse me. Goodbye.”
With that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
“Master Jin, don’t go yet.” Chen Junhui quickly blocked Master Jin’s way and asked with a smile, “Master, what do you think of my diamonds?”
“That’s right, it’s an authentic South African diamond.”
“How much do you think these authentic South African diamonds are worth?”
“It’s worth it.” Master Jin made a few gestures with his fingers.
Seeing this gesture, Chen Junhui was very excited: “Master, you mean these diamonds are worth seventy million?”
Coughing sounds rang out.
Master Jin seemed to be frightened by these words. He coughed a few times and shook his head, “I’m not talking about seventy million, but seventy thousand.”
“What? Seventy thousand?” Chen Junhui’s eyes almost popped out when he heard this number.
How could a naked South African diamond that he bought for tens of millions be worth only seventy thousand after it was certified by a foreign expert?
“Seventy thousand. No more.” Master Jin nodded his head vigorously and confirmed this answer.
“How is this possible?”
“Nothing is impossible.” Master Jin pointed at the bag of diamonds and said in a serious manner, “The cutting techniques of these diamonds are very rough, the color and purity are very poor, there are many flaws.”
“But I bought it abroad, and I have an appraisal certificate.”
“Sigh!” Master Jin sighed and said with emotion, “Young man, you’re still too young. I’m afraid you’ve been tricked.”
“What? I …”
Chen Junhui was stunned on the spot like a retard. Only now did he realize that he was tricked by someone overseas.
He had originally thought that he would have to spend several tens of millions to obtain a treasure, but what he had picked up was not a treasure, but several tens of thousands of ordinary diamonds.
“I still have things to do, so I’ll take my leave first. Goodbye.” After saying this, Master Jin turned around and left.
“Take care, Master Jin.” Liu Jun hurriedly brought his men to see him off. It was only when he saw Master Jin off did he return to the restaurant. He couldn’t help but give Wu Tian a big thumbs up and praise, “Good boy, I didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable about diamonds. You could see the value of these diamonds with a glance.”
The Liu family couldn’t help but nod in praise. Only now did they understand that Wu Tian was the true expert in appraising treasures.
He could tell the grade of a diamond with a single glance, and he could even accurately determine the value of a diamond. If this wasn’t an expert, then what was it?
Even Liu Mengyao couldn’t help but look at him with awe.
Before this, she thought that Wu Tian was just spouting nonsense and pretending to know nothing, but it wasn’t until now that she dared to confirm that Wu Tian was very proficient in diamonds.
“I’m flattered. I only know a little bit about it.” Wu Tian scratched his head and revealed a modest smile.
“Alright, let’s continue eating.” Liu Jun picked up his chopsticks and realized that Chen Junhui was still standing there in a daze. He reminded him with a smile, “Nephew, let’s continue eating.”
“Uncle, I …” Chen Junhui gritted his teeth. At this moment, he wished he could find a hole to hide in.
He had never been as humiliated as he was now. He bought tens of thousands of yuan worth of diamonds and gave them to Liu Jun as tens of millions.
Originally, he wanted to use this opportunity to curry favor with Liu Jun. However, when he found out that it was a fake, he was ruthlessly slapped in front of everyone.
“Nephew, don’t take it to heart. I’ll accept the diamond. I appreciate your kindness.” Liu Jun kept the diamonds and stuffed them into his pocket, trying to ease the awkwardness.
“Uncle, I didn’t expect it to be like this.” Chen Junhui was embarrassed.
Although Liu Jun said he didn’t care, he definitely called him a retard in his heart. At this moment, the Liu family were all looking at him with a playful look.
Especially Liu Mengyao, she looked at him with disdain and contempt. On the contrary, she looked at Wu Tian with infatuation.
Seeing this gaze, he was about to go crazy.
“Let’s put off the matter of the diamonds for now, let’s eat first.” After Liu Jun said this, he gave Chen Junhui a pair of chopsticks and said, “This is our local specialty, how about you try it?”
“Not bad, it really is delicious.” Seeing that Liu Jun gave him a way out, Chen Junhui quickly took the opportunity to change the topic, “It’s been a long time since I’ve been back home. Even the dishes at home are so delicious.”
“Do you think that your hometown has changed a lot?”
“Yes, the change is too great. I can’t tell which direction is which.” After saying that, Chen Junhui changed to a gentle tone and said to Liu Mengyao, “Mengyao, after dinner, can you be my tour guide and take me for a walk?”
“Sorry, I don’t have time today.” Liu Mengyao tactfully refused.
“You don’t have time?”
“Right, Wu Tian is an important guest of our Liu family. He came here with great difficulty, of course I have to spend some time to entertain him.” Liu Mengyao came up with a reasonable excuse.
Chen Junhui’s heart sank after hearing this. It seemed that in Mengyao’s heart, Wu Tian was more important than him.
