Chapter 11 Small Farm Crisis
"Diamond, the color is the highest D grade, and the clarity is at least IF, oh, God, this is really a diamond." The middle-aged white man looked excited. It is not uncommon to pick up money on the road. You can go out early to pick up diamonds. Not everyone has encountered it. Looking at Li Han and the group of people from a distance, Smith was puzzled. It seemed that there were two women, one man, and three or four children who had just walked over. They were dressed in ordinary clothes, and even the men's clothes were a little worn out. As for Liu Xu, who was walking far away, Smith didn't notice much.
"Sir, please wait a moment." Smith saw that Li Han and the others were about to enter the dormitory, he reacted, took a few steps and called Li Han.
"Hello, what's the matter?" Li Han looked at the white man in front of him, who looked like he was in his forties. He was a little puzzled. He didn't seem to know the person in front of him. "Professor Smith." Han Ximin and Li Xi didn't expect to stop Li Han to be a professor of the college, Smith, the youngest professor of the law school.
"Xi?" Smith didn't expect it to be Han Ximin and Li Xi, but Smith was a law school professor or a diamond appraisal expert. Smith didn't hide it. Han Ximin and Li Xi were a little dumbfounded when they said about finding the diamond. Don't talk about him, Li Han was dumbfounded and asked. "You said it's a diamond?" Diamond, what's the matter with the energy heart? It doesn't mean that you have a pile of diamonds, so a large energy heart fragment is at least half a catty. How much is it worth?
Li Han's eyes were full of golden light, and it was full of money, but in an instant, Li Han realized that the origin of so many diamonds is a problem. If you take them out casually, you will be in trouble. "Han, are these also diamonds in Dudu's hand?"
Li Xi spoke with a little vibrato. After all, it was the first time I saw a child throwing diamonds. Professor Smith just said that Dudu smashed Liu Xu's diamonds, at least ten carats, with excellent quality, which can reach $100,000. The best carat, although the cut is worse and the price is lower, it is still hundreds of thousands of dollars, just throw it around. "This should be it." Li Han didn't know whether he should laugh or cry now. These days, he was completely guarding Jinshan without knowing it.
"Han, don't you know about these diamonds?" Smith learned about Li Han's current situation from Han Ximin and Li Xi. He was a little stunned. He came out to beg with the diamonds in his arms. Little girl toys, that's hundreds of thousands of dollars, maybe even millions.
"I just found out too." Where would Li Han have the opportunity to study diamonds, or else he would beg for money, which would be a shame. "Han, can I take a look at this one?" Dudu still held a large diamond in his hand, at least four or five times its size.
"Dudu." Li Han coaxed for a while, and handed the diamond in Xiao Dudu's hand to Li Han. Smith took it with excitement, looked at it with a magnifying glass for a while, and handed it to his mouth. "It's so perfect, it's so perfect, I've never seen such a perfect natural diamond, it's a miracle created by God."
"Smith, Professor, how much is this diamond worth?" Li Xi asked in a low voice, Li Han also looked at Smith with anticipation, as long as Han Ximin blinked and looked at the diamond in Smith's hand. "This diamond is probably fifty carats and worth more than five million dollars."
Li Han's mind was confused, and his whole body was a little shivering. Five million is not human life coins, but US dollars. Li Han was still worrying about a breakfast just now, and followed Han Ximin and Li Xi for the fare. A girl borrowed money and was secretly humiliated by Liu Xu, so she could only endure it. Similarly, for the farm and the loan, I went to the town every day for several months to protest and demonstrate, and I lost my face. Thinking about the torture of more than 100,000 US dollars in loans, I haven’t slept peacefully for more than a year. After buying the farm, Li Han's life was poor and he was sad. The leisurely life became difficult, but Li Han was no longer a child. He didn't tell his family about this, and he didn't even go home during the Spring Festival to save some money.
My niece just wanted to ride a horse, but I couldn’t be satisfied. I ran around to buy a sick horse for a little hope. Why, Li Han, such a disbelieving, disrespectful, and realistic person, chose to agree when faced with the temptation of the system. Li Han didn't know that there might be consequences for agreeing, but he really wanted to change.
5 million, everything was resolved, Li Han was stunned, as for the remaining diamonds in the space, Li Han just thought about it, Li Han is not not greedy, but he knows that the source of diamonds can't stand scrutiny. "Professor Smith, can you help contact the buyer? You know my current situation."
"Unfortunately, if it is designed, the auction price will be higher." Smith said looking at Li Han, Li Han shook his head slightly, the auction was too loud. "Can I contact the buyer privately? It doesn't matter if the price is lower. I'm willing to pay a 5% commission."
Smith's hand trembled slightly. Smith had this plan in mind when he had picked up the diamond, but he never expected that Li Han would be willing to pay such a high commission. "No problem, what a coincidence, a guest yesterday asked for a large diamond."
"Thank you very much." Li Han has a good impression of Smith. If someone else picked up hundreds of thousands of dollars in diamonds, why didn't they hide it for the first time? It's not that Smith doesn't love money, but he is more upright.
The diamond matter was handed over to Smith for help, and Li Han borrowed Han Ximin's phone to call home. But the phone rang for a long time and no one answered, Li Han wondered, is the power not there? Li Han dialed Weili's mobile phone, and the phone was connected for a while, but the other end was a little noisy.
"Weili." "Han?" Wei Li's voice was a little hoarse, and the surrounding noise was unusual, and someone's name was faintly heard shouting.
Li Han has left Kemising Town for the past few days, but it has not been calm. In the past few days, the constituency of Kemising Town has held several large-scale protests. "Han, **** Max betrayed, we were cheated."
"William, speak slowly." Li Han was a little anxious. Max is a member of the constituency of Kemising Township. He originally represented the interests of small and medium farmers and family farmers. He didn't expect that Max would benefit large and medium-sized farms this time. The favorable motion was voted in favor. The economic crisis and the snow disaster caused heavy losses to many small and medium-sized farms. Although the insurance company paid, the losses still caused many small farms to have difficulties in operating. This motion was passed, making it more difficult for small farms to get loans, and agricultural subsidies to large and medium-sized farms. Farm leans.
Weili said on the phone that some small-scale farmers plan to sell their farms as soon as possible, and large-scale farms take the opportunity to buy at lower prices. The consequences are very serious. Most of the small and medium-sized farms are family-owned and have limited funds. Now this problem occurs.
"Weili, calm down. I'll go back to Kemixing this afternoon, and I'll talk about it later. Please help me pay attention to the several farms around me. If they are interested in selling them, I will buy them at the market price." Li Han heard the news, the first When I think about it, this may be an opportunity to expand my own farm. Compared with a family farm, 3,000 acres is more suitable. It is too small, and the utilization rate of manpower and agricultural machinery is too low.
"Han, do you want to buy a farm?" Li Xi and Han Ximin asked softly while waiting for Li Han to end the call. "I used to have a small farm in Montana. Now that I have some spare money, I can buy some land."
"Really, can we go?" Han Ximin looked surprised. The farm immediately thought of the open land, endless grains, alpine pastures, flocks of cattle and sheep, cowboys on horses, and the revolver around her waist flashed silver. , too handsome.
"Of course, it is my honor for you to come, and I will treat you well." Li Han was grateful to Han Ximin and Li Xi, and helped himself several times without asking for anything in return. This person is worth interacting with.
"Xi, how about we go horseback riding." Han Ximin will start planning what to do on the farm, Li Han smiled and stood on the side listening. As for Xiao Dudu, who was playing with dolls, the little guy was a little violent.
