Chapter 1817 EP1818. Stark: It’s not that simple

A rich gemstone deposit was discovered in the volcanic rocks under the sea near Hawaii.

Not only did Skye not expect such a gain, but Stark, as a partner, was also shocked after learning the news.

"Tsk, tsk." Looking at the map floating in front of him, and then looking at Skye, Stark sighed from the bottom of his heart: "To be honest, you really surprised me."

"Hehe." Smiling happily, Skye couldn't wait to ask: "Tony, is this vein worth mining? According to your estimate, how much money can it make?"

"Well..." His eyes fell on the map where Skye had marked the distribution of the mineral veins again. After thinking quietly for more than ten seconds, Stark suddenly showed a regretful expression: "What a pity. If on land

That’ll be fine.”

From Stark's tone, I felt something was wrong.

Skye subconsciously put away her smile and put on a slightly uneasy expression: "Eh? No way..."

"Yes, it seems you have guessed it." Catching Skye's gaze, Stark sighed longly: "The location of this mineral deposit is very embarrassing. Because of this, its value has been greatly reduced.

It’s a big discount. To be honest, it’s hard for me to judge whether it really has mining value.”

"Why? That's a gem mine. Shouldn't it be more valuable than gold?"

"That's why I said, 'It would be great if we were on land.'" Stark shook his head and patiently gave the answer: "You know, while mining minerals, it will inevitably cause harm to the surrounding environment.

Destruction. If the pollution caused by mining cannot be controlled below the level, or in other words, whether the value of the mined minerals can offset the losses caused by damaging the environment is one of the important criteria for judging whether the mineral vein has mining value."

"If this vein is located on land, then we only need to spend a small amount of money to smooth out the losses caused by damaging the environment. For example, adding a few more processes in sewage treatment, or paying more attention when using construction machinery

Well, in short, as long as you invest a small amount of money, you can effectively control pollution."

"But it happens to be in the sea, and it is buried very shallowly. It happens to be within the continental shelf where the seabed ecology is the most active. This means that if we really start to mine this vein, it will inevitably affect people living in that sea area.

It will cause a devastating blow to various marine life. It may only take a few weeks, or it may be a month or two. In short, as long as large-scale mining is carried out, the ecological structure of that sea area will completely collapse in a short period of time."

"If you want to make up for this loss, you have to invest at least hundreds of millions of dollars. Plus the time it takes to restore the ecosystem... Let's put it this way, unless the minerals mined from this vein can be worth hundreds of dollars

100 billion, which is enough to allow the government to come forward as a guarantee. Otherwise, the obstruction from environmental protection agencies around the world would be enough to make us suffer."

"And judging from the size of the area you have drawn..." At this point, Stark raised his finger and pointed at the map suspended in mid-air: "With reference to the various diamond mines that have been discovered on the earth, choose the one with the highest content.

As a standard for a rich mine, well... Judging from the size of this vein, its value is probably around eight or nine billion. Obviously, this total value is far from enough to make the ZF jealous and willing to

The extent of coming forward to bear the infamy.”

"In addition, it is a gemstone vein dominated by diamonds, which is one of the reasons why its mining value is greatly reduced."

After saying this, Stark picked up the cup and took a sip of coffee to moisten his throat a little. He subconsciously turned his head and glanced at Shi Xiaolei, who was standing silently aside.

Following Stark's gaze, she also glanced at Shi Xiaolei... Although she saw the meaning in Stark's eyes, she still couldn't figure out why it was related to Shi Xiaolei.

"What are you looking at me doing?" Even Shi Xiaolei himself looked confused.

"I know you definitely didn't realize it." Putting down the cup, Stark sat back on the sofa and crossed his legs: "Because of you, the prices of many mineral resources in the international market have been affected. Especially

Various gemstones, as well as some rare resources that were originally very expensive."

Hearing this, Shi Xiaolei suddenly remembered the Blue Star that had been docked on the back of the moon.

"That's not true. Although there are many mining machines on the Blue Star, I have only used one-third of them. Moreover, it is not continuous mining 24 hours a day... Just that little bit

Will the shipment volume affect the price trend in the international market?" Shi Xiaolei scratched his head and added

Added a few sentences: "Besides, at most only 20 to 30% of the resources mined by the Blue Star have entered the market. The rest are either collected into Stark Industries' warehouses or directly supplied to China.

If China has not entered the market, how can they affect the market conditions?"

"Although only 20% to 30% has flowed into the market, judging from the total output, it is already several times that of before." Stark spread his hands and shrugged: "Under such circumstances, how can the market situation remain the same?

Also, have you missed the point?"

"Um?"

"Rare resources are not what we should talk about now." Pointing to Skye, Stark rolled his eyes and reminded Shi Xiaolei: "Diamonds, as well as red, yellow, blue, green and other colored gemstones, are the focus of the topic.

.Man, please find out what the current situation is, okay?"

"Uh..." After thinking about it following Stark's reminder, Shi Xiaolei still couldn't think of a reason.

No, not only did he not understand it, but the expression on his face was even more confused: "I can still understand the rare resources I just mentioned. But the gems... Man, I really can't figure it out. The gems.

How can the changes in the market have anything to do with me?"

"Tsk." With a slight tut, Stark shook his head and reminded with a speechless expression: "I'm convinced by your memory. Have you forgotten? Not long ago, when I ordered a birthday gift for Pepper

, I bought several rubies from you."

After Stark said this, Shi Xiaolei finally remembered - just like exchanging potions from the system, he can also exchange various levels of red, yellow, blue and emeralds from the world of "Diablo 2", as well as the same

Specifications of diamonds.

"..." Shi Xiaolei scratched the back of his head and felt a little embarrassed: "Well, I didn't sell much of it."

"The total number is not too much, the key lies in how big it is." Stark gave an example casually: "Let's talk about diamonds. In my hand alone, there are six eggs as big as them, although they are not as big as those in the library.

Linan', but it can almost catch up with the one ranked third. It is said that rare things are more valuable, and so many large diamonds have appeared at the same time, do you think the diamond market can remain the same? "

"This... uh..."
