Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories - Chapter 521
Chapter 521: Tong Hua’s Thoughts!
He looked at him from afar through the car window. The young boy seemed envious. Then, he turned around instantly and continued fighting for the bone. The wild dog pushed him onto the ground, and the dog ran away. The boy ran after the dog.
“Young Master, let’s go.”
“Sure!”
Tong Hua returned to the house in the evening. The chef had finished preparing the meals. They were all authentic African dishes. This was the port city known as the City of Gold. The ingredients they had obtained were just like those that any other bustling city supplied. They had everything.
“Ah Da, have you brought him to the southern side?” Shen Qianshu asked.
Ah Da was about to speak when Ye Ling said, “I ordered him to do so.”
Shen Qianshu touched Tong Hua’s head. In her heart, Tong Hua was just a child. Since he was young, he was weak, and she was not very willing to show him the dark sides of life.
“There are no disadvantages to seeing more of the world.”
Shen Qianshu had nothing to say to that. She touched Tong Hua’s head gently.
Tong Hua said, “I have something to say.”
Shen Qianshu felt as if her son would feel proud. She waited for him to speak up.
“Thanks dad!”
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Everyone was speechless.
What kind of thought is this?
“I’ve been reincarnated well.”
“Why don’t you thank your mum?”
“The father determines the gender of a child. Not the mother.”
Shen Qianshu said, “Well, that’s a really interesting thought…”
She had been overthinking.
Tong Hua’s ability to heal himself was very good. Although he had seen some tragic scenes closely, the influence on him was little. He recovered by nighttime.
The next morning, Ye Ling brought Shen Qianshu to the mine. Tong Hua had wanted to visit some places and to join them. The mine was more than 20 kilometers away on the outskirts of the Northern District. Ye Ling’s company had registered a branch in Johannesburg, and they requested for mining rights.
Generally speaking, from the excavation of the diamond to the auctioning of it, the national finance had a 10% share. After adding other expenses, the profit made would be quite good, but the City of Gold demanded for 20%.
It was not a small amount.
“Last year, we also found a 400-carat diamond. This ore mountain is not easy to mine, and many businessmen had given up before us. When the contract was first given to us, the price was not high. Wanting a 20% share is actually not a lot.”
Along the way, Zhong Ran explained the origin of this ore mountain patiently.
The only thing he did not mention was that back then, they had used underhanded methods to obtain the ore mountain.
Otherwise, this ore mountain would have belonged to Jonah.
When the ore was mined, it was kept as a secret and locked in a safe. Other than the miners, no one knew about it. It was the first time Shen Qianshu had seen such a huge diamond. She was like a country bumpkin who had just been exposed to the city. She walked around the diamond and looked at it. The diamond was really big, and it was deformed. Without any cutting or polishing done on it yet, it was not dazzling. It looked really ordinary like a giant transparent stone.
So this is diamond…
Tong Hua had no appraising ability for diamonds, so he just touched it curiously. It was cool and icy.
“Master, the diamonds have been mined, but they are still there. It had not been appraised, so we don’t know its value yet. This is the biggest single diamond found in the past decade,” the manager said. For such a diamond, it would be exorbitantly expensive even if there were internal flaws to it.
Furthermore, the value of diamonds that had come out of this mine had never been low.
“Bring the diamond to the company first. Keep this private and confidential. I do not wish to auction this publicly.”
“Alright!”
“Master, will I be able to take part in the analysis and carving of this diamond?” Shen Qianshu asked.
“Are you up for it?”
