Chapter 417 Diamond Hunting

Feng Yi did not have the same worries as Mark, and he acted very confident in the store.

This calm and stable mood made the owner of the diamond store more respectful.

The owner had seen many customers. He was selling diamonds when the mines here had not yet been transformed. Until now, he had seen all kinds of customers.

Did Feng Yi buy a lot of diamonds?

In the eyes of ordinary people, it was indeed a lot.

But the store manager who had handled large-scale diamond transactions could still deal with it calmly.

If the customer showed special concern, kept repeating and repeatedly instructing, the store manager might not take the other party seriously.

However, for customers like Feng Yi, the store manager's attitude was raised to a higher level.

Such customers either really don't care about this little thing and can afford the loss. Or they have enough strength to suppress all the tricks and are not afraid of playing tricks.

No matter which one, the store manager will treat it seriously.

Don't just focus on the immediate benefits, look at the long term! Go wide!

Feng Yi didn't take the diamonds, and he didn't go through the side door, but went out directly from the main door. It's more convenient to go through the side door than the main door.

The store manager personally saw the guest off to the door, and watched the mysterious guest walk away before returning to the store. Then he picked up the phone and asked someone to check the identity of the mysterious guest. If he could find out some information, it would be great, but if he couldn't, it would be fine.

Feng Yi, who had already left the store, continued to stroll under Mark's worried eyes, and was still thinking about tasting various local specialties.

Those messy food stalls were all set up by nearby villagers. With more tourists, the villagers would certainly not miss this opportunity to increase their income.

"They only need to pay a certain fee to the mine to set up a stall here, and the income is not bad."

Mark introduced the situation here, and then watched Feng Yi eat all the way in surprise.

You know, the food made by villagers from various villages may not be accustomed to people from other countries who come here to travel. Even Mark himself can't accept it.

But Feng Yi seems to accept it well.

There is no need to talk about common food. Sweet, salty, fragrant, and smelly, this employer is not picky at all.

Further ahead, on the stall, plump and round insects were wriggling in coconut shells.

This is a delicacy that the aborigines like. Well, in the eyes of the aborigines, it is a delicacy and can also provide rich protein.

Tourists who come and go, some scream, some take photos, and some are eager to try.

In comparison, Feng Yi is relatively calm.

Mark asked attentively: "Boss, do you want to challenge? Ignore their appearance, the taste is okay!"

Feng Yi agreed: "Well, it's okay, like glutinous rice cakes. I've eaten it."

In the rainforest, playing for so many days and consuming so much, of course he is not just a vegetarian.

Sometimes he will also refer to the diet of animals there.

For example, a certain palm tree used to make sago can be eaten.

For example, the insects growing in this tree can be eaten.

There are too many tourists surrounding the stall in front of him, and many people are taking photos and videos. Feng Yi did not stop here and continued his eating and shopping journey.

Mark, who followed attentively, became more curious about Feng Yi: What kind of rich man is this employer? I am not picky about what to eat.

We didn't visit for too long, and we could go into the mine.

There were two tour groups in front, wearing hats of different colors, and the guides holding flags led the groups in, loudly explaining to the tourists the various steps and precautions for digging and washing diamonds.

The tourists were in high spirits. Although they knew that there was a high probability that they would return empty-handed, they still couldn't help but try it under the scorching sun.

Feng Yi heard the tourists in front of him talking excitedly:

"I checked, colored diamonds have been found here before! But the number is very small, and now it's even harder to find one for many days. Even if you find one, it's just a very small particle, and it can't be sold at a high price. It's just the smallest fragments on the rough stone display counter in the diamond store outside."

"Speaking of the diamond store outside, I heard from the tour group next door that someone bought millions of diamond rough stones in the store outside at noon!"

"Go to the finished product store to buy rough stones? Why don't you go to another mining area that specializes in selling rough stones? What's the point of buying here? Where did this traitor come from? Is this a fool?!"

Feng Yi, who was walking behind them:...

He pressed his sunglasses, pretended not to hear, and continued to walk in.

Feng Yi's influence mainly exists on the Internet. Except for those who pay special attention to Feng Yi, most people, whether at home or abroad, can only say that when Feng Yi is mentioned, they may know that there is such a person and know what the pictures posted on the Internet look like, but in real life, their ability to identify him is much weaker. After all, he is not a world-class figure.

At this time, Feng Yi was among ordinary tourists, with no sense of existence at all.

The tourists in front complained about the injustice of buying raw stones at high prices for a while, and then talked about diamonds.

"The diamond market is too crazy. Now factories can cultivate diamonds in batches, so why are diamond rings still so expensive! Before I came here, I heard that it was cheap here, and I wanted to buy a diamond ring for my wife. When I entered the store, I felt so painful!"

"The way luxury goods are played, certificates, design, cutting and other links are all premium, which is not something that ordinary people can play. In the luxury market, people play differently from us. However, raw stones are indeed far less valuable than before. Thinking about this, do you feel that your restless heart has calmed down?" said the person next to him.

"No, I feel more agitated! I want to take advantage of the fact that it can still be sold at a high price, dig more and sell them, I wonder how many houses I can buy!"

The person who said this gradually became dreamy.

The person next to him slapped him: "Wake up, stop dreaming, there is not a single diamond, where can some diamonds come from? We are just here to experience it, take a video and post it on WeChat Moments to show off, do you still expect to really dig diamonds here?"

Mark, who was following behind, heard this and nodded secretly.

That's right, just come here to check in and experience it, keep a calm mind, and don't hold the fantasy of really digging diamonds.

Get rich with this? Think too much!

Feng Yi has already taken tools and wandered around the mine. At first, he didn't dig, but stood by and watched the tour group busy.

Mark and Cai Bin followed closely, but there was no place for them in the mine.

So, when the employer stopped, the two of them also stayed not far away, chatting from time to time.

The two have different attitudes towards diamonds.

Cai Bin is not optimistic about the diamond market, nor does he think that this thing is a big deal, it's all a market game.

But after all, the sponsor is here, and he can't express his ideas without scruples, so he sang softly: "Oh~ It's all bubbles, just a moment of fireworks~"

Mark laughed beside him: "Hey, don't say it in such a nonchalant tone, I don't believe you don't want to find diamonds."

Cai Bin immediately said: "Of course I want to! This thing can be exchanged for money. In some countries, some people have called it the "easiest cash to carry"! But can I dig it here?"

Mark shrugged, and still said the omnipotent sentence: "You can if you are lucky."

Over there, Feng Yi seemed to be watching other people digging diamonds, but in fact, he was sensing in the field.

Because the age is too long, diamonds related to ancestors may be extremely rare here. It is not certain whether there are any stones left in this mine.

Even if there are, there are only a few diamond fragments, and their surface material is even thinner, making it difficult to sense unless you are close.

Therefore, if Feng Yi wanted to find the diamond fragments that might be related to his ancestors, he had to scan one place after another like a scanner.

He pretended to dig, then moved to another place to look and dig again.

His behavior was similar to that of tourists in a tour group.

At another place, Feng Yi was dressed up, and heard the people in the tour group not far away talking. There was a bit of resentment in their words, which might be because they had been in the sun for so long without any harvest and were tired, so they were a little emotional.

"Diamonds should only shine in industry! Didn't the news say that the price of diamonds has dropped so much!"

Another person: "Brother, doesn't your girlfriend want to buy a diamond ring? Just tell her that diamonds will drop in price once you buy them! To put it bluntly, isn't it just carbon that has been pressed for a long time under high temperature and high pressure underground? It can be synthesized in batches artificially, and it will become less and less valuable as time goes by! Buy gold, gold is the scarce substance in the universe, it is the truly eternal and everlasting, and it is also a financial product!"

"Yes, diamonds are hyped up by that company!"

"All It's a consumption trap! IQ tax!"

"Gold is worth more than diamonds! Diamonds are just like that after all..."

The uncle in the same tour group listened to their chatter and couldn't help turning around:

"You two are almost done! Don't talk about gold and diamonds. How do you know that gold can't be synthesized in the future? I heard that laboratories can synthesize gold now, but the radiation is large and the cost is high. But in a few decades, who can say for sure? A hundred years ago, no one could have imagined that diamonds could be synthesized in large quantities artificially!

"What's the point of buying things only based on the value of the materials? In this era, everything is hyped!

"The broken figures you two bought for thousands of dollars are worth nothing in my eyes! After ten or twenty years, the materials will age and become a pile of garbage!!!"

"Broken figures", "worth nothing", "a pile of garbage"...

The two young people were furious.

"How can you say that!"

"Do you know what is a rare opportunity? Do you know what is life and love?"

"That is my emotional carrier!"

"You are trampling on my spirit and soul!"

Facing the anger of the two young men, the uncle rolled his eyes: "You are a spendthrift!"

The two young men blushed and wanted to continue arguing, but the sun made their brains dizzy. Looking around, their eyes fell on Feng Yi, and one of them asked:

"Hey, brother, which country are you from? Do you understand what I am saying?"

Feng Yi nodded.

The man hurriedly asked: "Brother, do you play with figures? The kind of figures and models?"

Feng Yi thought of the ones in his collection hall and nodded: "Play."

The man nodded and said: "That's right, isn't this normal? Why is this uncle insulting people!"

Feng Yi said: "Just like it yourself. The world changes so fast, and the collection value is uncertain."

After that, he quickly took the tools and ran to the next position without getting involved in their discussions.

Looking at the sky and the sun, Feng Yi sped up.

Just like what Mark said, there are a lot of clutter here, and there are indeed a lot of things that confuse the sight. Tourists kept shouting excitedly, and then sighed in disappointment.

The land here has been plowed back and forth many times, and the possibility of what Feng Yi is looking for is really small.

His sight swept through the mine and then fell on the panning area.

There were also many people there, and most of the miners in the mining area were busy there.

Yes, the mine has been transformed, but the miners are still doing their original work, but the clients they serve have changed.

Tourists are concerned about the clothes and shoes they are wearing and do not want to stand in the water to search for diamonds, so they pay miners to do the work for them and let the miners help wash the mud and sand they dig.

Tourists stood nearby, took videos, and chatted with the miners looking for diamonds from time to time.

The process of panning for diamonds is actually very simple. Use a sieve to filter out the sediment in the water, and then look for diamonds among the remaining stones and other particles.

There is also a bucket-shaped pot-like tool that miners skillfully toss around in the water, constantly splashing water, and sifting out impurities. Denser stones will remain at the bottom. If there are diamonds, those miners will find them. .

Some miners were very enthusiastic about their work. I don’t know whether it was because the tourists paid them too much, or because they were deliberately showing off their skills.

The atmosphere in the washing area is much more lively than that of digging on land.

Some tourists did find diamonds, but they were very small, like grains of rice. Even if they were sold, they would not be worth the price.

But tourists who find diamonds are particularly excited. No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat!

Even if it is only as big as a grain of rice, this is what he gains here!

That one even shouted very excitedly: "Never Air Force!"

Then it attracted the dissatisfied looks of several fishing players.

Damn it, labor and capital are still vacant!

And make a decision in mind, if you really can't find diamonds, just pick a few stones and go back!

The panning area was abuzz.

Feng Yi walked around and found nothing, but he did not intend to leave. Instead, he dug some soil nearby, went to the designated location to rent a screen for washing diamonds, then took off his shoes and rolled them up. trouser legs, holding the screen into the water, pretending to be looking for diamonds.

Shop in one place for a while, then change places and continue shopping.

On the surface, he was looking for diamonds, but in fact, Feng Yi focused most of his attention on the bottom of the water, sensing the substances in the water.

After searching through several sieves, my clothes were covered in mud stains.

Changing the place again, Feng Yi paused slightly when he got into the water.

Huh?

It seems that a little "signal" has been scanned, and there is a weak induction!

Feng Yi walked that way.

The closer you are to the source of the "signal", the stronger the perception.

The strength of this "signal" will not be a small particle.

Arriving above the "signal" source, Feng Yi used his feet to dig at the sand on the bottom of the water.

The covering layer is relatively thick and cannot be dug out for a while.

So Feng Yi used his feet to dig a few times, then pretended to use a sieve to sift the water.

The efficiency is a bit slow, but not noticeable.

About five minutes later, Feng Yi stumbled slightly, as if he was tripped by something in the water. His puzzled expression was on point, and then he leaned down and grabbed an object from the water, which almost pressed down on his entire palm.

There was a lot of mud and water on it, so the real thing couldn't be seen clearly.

"Found it."
