MTL - Mixed In the United States As a Local Tyrant-Chapter 3 touch the law
Chapter 3 touches the law
Hearing the number reported by the manager, An Feng almost couldn't help dancing, but thinking that this is a serious occasion, he is also a person with a huge treasure, and this calmness should be a must... However, this number is indeed It exceeded his original expectation, and he was very satisfied if the two pink diamonds could be sold for 20 million - the local currency unit, but he didn't expect the other party to offer US dollars.
In addition to the two pink diamonds to be auctioned, An Feng also agreed to send the other six diamonds to the United States for exhibition. In addition to creating an advertising effect, the deeper reason is that the other diamonds are not small, and there is no guarantee that they will be lost if they are taken out. Yes, it's safer to let the auction house get it out.
A lawyer was invited and an entrustment agreement was signed. Then, the manager named Tony asked: "Mr. An, do you want to go with us?"
An Feng shook his head: "I still have some things to deal with, please let me know after the auction is over."
"Okay, it will take about a month. Please keep the communication open." Tony said with a smile, shaking hands with An Feng, and the two said goodbye.
An Feng originally planned to take a one-day trip to the capital, but seeing that the weather was gray and foggy, and everyone on the street was wearing masks, he had no choice but to stay in the hotel for a day and book a plane ticket to go home. If he wants to go abroad, he still needs to go back to the place of household registration to apply for a passport, which is why he declined the invitation from the other party.
Anfeng's hometown is located in a quiet small town in the south. After the plane landed, it took more than an hour to take a minibus. Sitting in the crowded carriage, listening to the dialect spoken by the passengers on the same car, there is an indescribable intimacy. I was busy with work, and I didn't go back for a long time.
The weather in May in the south is muggy and sweaty. After the bus arrived at the station, An Feng refused the motorcycle man's yelling at the station gate, and walked home. His family lived in a small town, not far away. When I got home, there was no one there, and I checked the time. It should be busy farming at this time.
He lives in the kind of small three-story western-style building that is common in rural areas. Apart from his parents, his family also has an older sister who is a middle school teacher. The business of the chicken farm is neither good nor bad, and it is not considered developed, but it can still survive.
An Feng cooks himself, but of course he cannot guarantee his skills. When my parents came back in the evening, it was said that they were taken aback. They saw the door of the house open from a distance, and thought they had been burglarized. An Feng was embarrassed for a while, he came back in a hurry without notifying anyone, but he quickly diverted the topic to other aspects.
He called his brother-in-law’s family, and then told them the story he had made up a long time ago, saying that he won the jackpot by buying a lottery ticket, and decided to leave one million to his parents, and he did what he should do, buying furniture, replacing the car, etc. But in the end, Mom and Dad unanimously decided to save the money.
An Feng said speechlessly: "The money is for you to spend."
My mother said with a smile: "I'm living a good life, your sister is married, and you are graduating. How can we spend what we old people have?"
An Feng knew this would happen a long time ago. His parents are honest farmers. His greatest wish is for his children to live well, and he has no other plans. He talked about his sister's family again, and decided to lend them 500,000 yuan. Of course, it doesn't matter if it's not repaid. He also left 300,000 yuan in student aid to his niece Xiaoyu. Going to school is not easy these days, and girls can't do without beautiful clothes.
The little niece is more than five years old, and she is at the age of ghosts and spirits. She is very skinny, and she got the title of a troublemaker in the kindergarten. Hearing this, she cheered and wanted to kiss her uncle, so that the sister beside her couldn't stand it: " Xiaoyu, you are still young, I will keep the money for you."
"Don't! Don't! Don't!" Xiaoyu is much smarter than An Feng when he was a child, knowing that this kind of custody is mostly meat buns beating dogs.
"Okay, okay, do you want 300,000 yuan or 100,000 yuan?" My sister asked her with a smile.
After all, it was a child, counted on his fingers, and naively chose a hundred and five yuan.
The whole family laughed, making the little girl look confused. An Feng picked her up and teased her: "Mom hates it the most, doesn't it? Why don't you go with uncle, I'll take you to the United States, go to Disneyland, go to San Diego to see the underwater world, how about taking a hot air balloon to see the Grand Canyon ?”
The little girl happily became a traitor.
An Feng mentioned by the way that he was going to the United States. While he was young, he wanted to go to the outside world to have a look. He talked about the heaven and **** of the U.S. emperor on the TV network all day long, but he hadn’t had a chance to see it yet. The whole family agrees with his idea, he is unemployed, and it is not bad to go on a trip to relax.
The following days were very peaceful. An Feng followed his father to do farm work, which was not heavy work. He just loaded some grain and vegetables from the small town into farm vehicles, and then wholesaled them to the nearby countryside. Occasionally do some round-trip transportation business.
Don't look at An Feng as a small white-collar worker, he does his work unambiguously. He often helped adults when he was young, driving a fully loaded agricultural vehicle on winding mountain roads to deliver goods, and his driving skills were developed at that time, no two-wheeled motorcycles, three-wheeled agricultural vehicles, four-wheeled tractors...all are absent Next.
While waiting for the passport, I often touched the crops in the field, the saplings on the brother-in-law mountain, and helped to configure various fertilizers... As a graduate of the Agricultural University, I also answered some doubts for the villagers. Just one night, he suddenly found information about a pile of fertilizer.
He excitedly got up in the middle of the night and wrote down the ingredients, steps and so on. Early the next morning, he seemed to have grasped the pattern... In the field he is familiar with, it is very easy to translate garbled characters or search for information. For example, water-soluble fertilizers, his own professionalism allows him to grasp keywords.
Would progress be made if this search method were applied to man-made diamonds? An Feng immediately looked for information on the Internet, such as the high-temperature and high-pressure technology of artificial diamonds, and the more refined high-temperature and low-pressure technology...It may take a lot of time for ordinary people to learn, but the machine brain can do it all at once.
It only took one day for An Feng to become a half-expert.
In this way, even if the information has not been sorted out, he can use the machine brain to study modern technology first, and after laying the foundation, he can narrow the scope and locate the future technology in his mind. Although there is still chance, the probability has been greatly improved. It used to be looking for a needle in a haystack, but now it is waiting for a rabbit.
Then, the searched answer was translated, showing that: artificial diamond technology has been able to replace natural diamonds, because it does not involve counterfeiting, but uses the same carbon element to quickly simulate volcanoes or deep underground environments to catalyze these particularly hard diamonds. diamond.
However, there is still no basis to find out whether the batch of diamonds in Anfeng's hands are man-made. However, the focus of his concern is no longer on this. Based on the information in his mind, the technology of man-made diamonds is at least hundreds of years ahead of the earth. The current technology Can't tell at all.
If he has mastered this technology, he can get some top-level stones every three to five years, not many, one in every three to five years, and if he has no money, he will take them to auction, and he will not do low-end work, and use those one or two carat diamonds to sell It's too low to deceive ordinary people. He is targeting the high-end field. People who can afford diamonds of tens of carats are definitely local tyrants who are not short of money. Even if they cheat them, An Feng will not have the slightest psychological burden.
If you can succeed, you will never be short of money in your life.
Continue to in-depth research. In the future, the craft of man-made diamonds is not simple. It needs to use simulated high-pressure environment, high-precision machines, or 3D printers. It is a huge project that affects the whole body. For the current progress of the machine brain, I am afraid it is still too early.
He again focused on the water-soluble fertilizer he "excerpted" and carefully edited the content according to the standards of the paper. After checking it several times, he signed his signature, and then used penguins to contact his college classmates: "Wang Le, die!" Where did you go? Brother calls you!"
After a while, Wang Le's profile picture lit up: "What's the matter with the **** looking for the master?"
An Feng replied: "There is something serious, by the way, are you still in graduate school?"
"I'm about to graduate, let's talk about something."
"I have a paper on a new type of water-soluble fertilizer here. I heard that someone in the school is working on this topic. I want you to pass it on to those professors."
Wang Le replied very quickly this time: "Wow, how many years has it been since you graduated, you can still come up with a thesis?"
"Haha, I sent it to you." An Feng replied.
"Are you serious?" Wang Le accepted the document, and the profile picture quickly darkened. About half an hour later, he came back to reply: "Okay! I have several points about the things you wrote. I don’t understand, how did you come up with it? There’s a show, I’ll help you cast it another day.”
"Thank you, Brother Graduation sent you a red envelope." An Feng replied with a smile.
Wang Le’s news never came. An Feng browsed the reports of related jewelry exhibitions on the Internet, and only mentioned it occasionally in China. An Feng Googled foreign websites and finally found the reports of the auction. Looking for a translator while chewing English, generally speaking, the report is often described as "surprise".
The two pink diamonds were named "Gemini". They have been exhibited three times in a row, and they are scheduled to be auctioned in New York next week. Many wealthy people have received invitations, and the bidding intentions are very hot. The total weight of the two giant diamonds, which can be called a miracle, is 30 carats, which is definitely a model for collection.
After applying for a passport in Anfeng, a few days before departure, Wang Le received a message: "Unfortunately, I was rejected."
An Feng was puzzled: "No one is watching?"
"I see, but... I'd better call and tell you." Wang Le called later: "There also happened to be a group in the college doing research on water-soluble fertilizers. The government has already consumed a lot of funds. Progress has been made. Of course, your technique is better."
"Then why not?" An Feng was even more puzzled.
"Here, people have invested tens of millions of dollars in research results for several months, but you just spit out tens of thousands of words at a low cost... With so many people in the expert team and so much money spent, can't it be better than you... You should You know, it's not just a technical issue."
"Is this a matter of reputation and relationship?" An Feng understood.
"That's right." Wang Le said.
An Feng was at a loss for words for a while, but he still thanked his old classmate for his help: "Forget it, think about it, my strength is no match for those experts."
"Don't be discouraged. If the east is not bright, the west is bright. You can try to find a private research team. Why not resell the patent?"
"Thank you for your good words!" An Feng felt better.
