Save the Bachelor of Heaven
Chapter 4487 4489 [Mountain of Light]
"Did you rob the Bank of England? How do you have so much money?" Angelica asked in surprise.
"This is my secret." Xiang Nan smiled and took out a handful of gold coins, silver coins and gems from his purse. "You have seen my capital. Now can you tell me what big deal you want to discuss?"
"Oh my God." Seeing Xiang Nan casually taking out so much money. Apart from other things, there are several gems alone, each as big as a pigeon egg, each worth at least four or five thousand pounds, Angelica couldn't help but exclaimed.
Then, she took out a diamond the size of an egg from her arms, crystal clear, flawless and dazzling.
"It's a diamond." Xiang Nan nodded, but he was not very excited.
Because diamonds are crystals of carbon elements, they are not very valuable in themselves. Modern industrial mass production can reach more than 300 carats.
And the diamond in front of him is only about 200 carats. It was indeed extremely precious in the 18th century, but it is not so amazing in modern society.
"Yes." Angelica nodded. "This diamond is called the 'Mountain of Light'. It is the largest diamond in the world. It originally belonged to the Mughal emperor of India. How much are you willing to pay for it?"
"Our store only purchases exotic items. Although this diamond is indeed very large, it does not meet our requirements." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said.
He had heard of the name of the Mountain of Light. It is said to be one of the largest diamonds in the world. Later, it was inlaid in the crown of the Queen of England.
But despite this, it was useless to him. He was not short of money or gems. There were countless gems the size of pigeon eggs in his purse.
"It is a little strange. Put it between your eyebrows and listen carefully. You can vaguely hear the sound." Angelica said quickly.
"Hear the sound?" Xiang Nan was stunned and stretched out his hand, "Can I try? If I can really hear the sound, I will definitely buy it at a high price."
"Okay, but don't try to rob it." Angelica hesitated and handed over the diamond, but then threatened, "Although I am alone, I am not a vegetarian."
"I can see it." Xiang Nan nodded. Ordinary people would not be wanted by the East India Company worldwide.
This diamond is likely to be stolen by her from the East India Company. Since its establishment, the East India Company has only bullied others. How can anyone take advantage of them?
Even the famous Captain Jack Sparrow was afraid of the East India Company.
...
Then Xiang Nan took the gem and put it on his forehead, but there was no difference.
"Where can I hear the sound?" He frowned unhappily.
"There is really a sound, but you need to face the sun." Angelica added quickly.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan got up and came to the window, letting the scorching sun shine on him.
At this time, a beam of sunlight just hit the diamond, and after being refracted by the diamond, it hit Xiang Nan's forehead, and a voice suddenly sounded in his mind.
Xiang Nan listened carefully, but it was ancient Sanskrit, but it was very vague, and with his hearing, he couldn't hear it clearly.
"How about it, you heard the sound, can you talk about its price now?" Angelica said at this time.
"Okay." Xiang Nan nodded, "How much do you offer?"
"At least 100,000 gold coins." Angelica said immediately.
"100,000 gold coins?!" Xiang Nan was stunned and laughed, "You really dare to ask."
At that time, buying a three-masted warship was only 4,000 to 5,000 gold coins. 100,000 gold coins can build a fleet. You know, King George III of the United Kingdom only spent 25,000 pounds to build Buckingham Palace.
"But I can agree to your price, on the condition that you need to answer a question for me." Xiang Nan said.
"What question?" Angelica asked quickly.
"Did you steal this diamond from the East India Company?" Xiang Nan asked.
Angelica heard it, without saying a word, immediately drew the Triton sword from her waist and stabbed Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan did not dodge or evade, and clamped the Triton sword with two fingers.
Angelica used all her strength, but the sword could not move at all, and she could not stab or pull it out.
Angelica was shocked, and immediately dropped the sword in her hand and turned to run out.
Xiang Nan saw this, stretched out his hand and fixed her in place.
"Don't worry, I don't want to report you to the East India Company, nor do I want to send you to exchange for a bounty." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I just want to know how you got this diamond."
"Let me go first, otherwise you can't let me tell you anything." Angelica said angrily.
Xiang Nan saw her say this, waved his hand, and Angelica immediately resumed action.
Then she pulled out a dagger from her boots and stabbed Xiang Nan with lightning speed.
But the tip of the knife could not stab any further just three feet in front of Xiang Nan, as if it was blocked by an invisible wall of air.
"How is this possible?" Angelica was shocked.
"You are really cunning and disobedient~" Xiang Nan sighed and shot out with a flick of his finger.
With a crisp sound, the dagger in Angelica's hand was broken into two pieces.
This strange sight shocked Angelica again. But she did not give up. With a shake of her hand, a puff of lime powder instantly sprinkled on Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan saw this and blew a breath. In an instant, the lime powder that was sprinkled on him blew towards Angelica, making her face dusty.
"Answer the questions honestly, please. I don't want to play this childish game with you anymore." Xiang Nan then pressed her Shenmen acupoint and said unhappily, "If you don't cooperate, I can only read your memory myself. At that time, your mind will be a mess, and you will become an idiot. I hope you don't regret it."
Angelica's Shenmen acupoint was pressed, and her whole body was numb and she couldn't use any strength.
Seeing that Xiang Nan was so powerful, she was no match for him anyway. She couldn't beat him, and she couldn't escape. Angelica really didn't want to become an idiot, so she could only give in temporarily.
"Don't, I'll tell you what you ask me honestly."
...
"Just cooperate." Xiang Nan nodded, "Where did this diamond come from?"
"You guessed right, it was stolen from the East India Company." Angelica explained.
"How did you steal it?" Xiang Nan asked curiously again.
"I used a fake identity to work as a cook in the East India Company. After I figured out the pattern of the warehouse patrol, I got the guard drunk and sneaked into the warehouse to steal it." Angelica explained.
While she was narrating, Xiang Nan had already used his telepathy to monitor her thoughts.
It turned out that what she said was true. There was indeed a large warehouse in the East India Company, which stored magical items collected by the company from all over the world.
This diamond was just one of them.
