Treasure Hunt all over the World

Chapter 1496 Feast of Gems

"Steven, what do you plan to do with this golden crown? Collect it yourself or send it to the auction? There must be many people on the live broadcast who are very concerned about this issue!"

Chandler's voice came again, still very excited in his tone.

Ye Tian looked at the golden crown in his hand, then smiled and said:

"I don't plan to collect this treasure myself. When I return to New York, I will find out the origin of this golden crown and determine its value, and then I will send it to the auction.

If anyone is interested in this golden crown, you are welcome to come to New York to participate in the auction. As long as you beat other competitors, this golden crown will be yours! "

Hearing what he said, there was a lot of scolding immediately in some places, some of them hated it even more, but they were very helpless, and they had nothing to do with Ye Tian!

While cursing at the top of their throats, the eyes of these guys lit up.

If this golden crown is really related to your own country or tribe, and you cannot obtain it through other means and channels, then you have to go to New York to participate in the auction and strive to win this golden crown!

After admiring the golden crown in his hand for a while, Ye Tian took the piece of dark green silk from Matisse, rewrapped the crown, and put it back into the red sandalwood box.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a sealed bag that he carried with him, put the red sandalwood box in it, and tied the bulging sealed bag around his waist!

Seeing his action, everyone immediately understood that he was going to bring the golden crown to the sea himself.

This treasure has been exposed, and countless people have seen it, and it is somewhat inappropriate to put it back into the wooden crate and continue to be placed in this cargo hold!

"Guys, let's continue. I believe there is more than one golden crown in this wooden crate. Maybe there are even bigger surprises waiting for us to discover!"

Ye Tian pointed to the wooden crate in front of him and said with a smile.

"You are right, Steven, there must be treasures of great value in those other metal boxes, and they are probably jewels and diamonds, otherwise Rommel would not be so cautious!"

Matisse nodded, his tone was very excited and full of expectation.

The voice did not fall,

He had already reached in, ready to lift another metal box out of the wooden crate.

However, he miscalculated and failed to pick up the metal box immediately. The weight of the metal box was obviously beyond his expectation.

"Wow! This metal box is very heavy, at least thirty-four to five kilograms, and it's possible that it contains Nacui gold, so there's no need to put it in the box!"

Matisse let out a sigh, a little confused about the situation.

After saying this, he exerted his strength again, carried the metal box out, and placed it on the bulkhead of the freighter next to it, which is now the floor!

The next work is the same as that of the first metal box.

After a little effort, Matisse and Raymond cooperated with each other, and quickly opened the rusty metal box!

As soon as the top cover of the metal box was lifted, the two guys exclaimed loudly, almost crazy with excitement!

"My God! A whole box of sapphires that have been preliminarily cut and polished weighs more than 30 kilograms, and they are the top sapphires. Am I right? How is this possible?"

Just as they were exclaiming incessantly, the sea water in front of them had completely turned blue, and the same was true for the live broadcast, a piece of azure blue, all set off by the top sapphires in the metal box.

"More than 30 kilograms of top-quality sapphires? Did I hear correctly? How is this possible! What a huge fortune that is, I can't even imagine it!"

"It's so beautiful. I have never seen so many top sapphires, and I have never seen such a beautiful picture. This is too crazy, just like a dream!"

Countless people in front of the live broadcast were hugging their heads and exclaiming. Everyone was stunned by the shocking scene on the live broadcast screen, and their eyeballs almost flew out of their sockets!

At this moment, Ye Tianqing's clear voice suddenly reached everyone's ears.

"I also hope that these are top-quality sapphires, that would be perfect, but unfortunately, they are not Kashmiri cornflower blue, but a gemstone from Africa, Tanzanite blue!"

"Ah! It's Tanzanite!"

Mathis exclaimed again, and immediately turned his head to look at Ye Tian, ​​his tone and eyes slightly disappointed.

Raymond next to him also turned his head to look at Ye Tian, ​​waiting for him to give a follow-up explanation.

Ye Tian nodded lightly, reached out and took out a gemstone from the box, carefully appreciated it, and then began to introduce this African specialty gemstone!

"Although Tanzanite and sapphire are both blue and very beautiful, they are not the same thing, the chemical composition of these two gemstones is completely different!

Mineralogically, tanzanite is also known as zoisite, and true sapphires are called corundum, but tanzanite can also be called sapphire in a broad sense.

In terms of hardness, the hardness of Tanzanite blue is lower, the Mohs hardness is only 7, while the Mohs hardness of sapphire can reach 9, so Tanzanite blue is not as wear-resistant as sapphire!

Although the hardness is low, the color saturation and fire of Tanzanite blue are far better than sapphire. The color of Tanzanite blue is mostly blue with purple, which looks very beautiful!

This is the color of the best sapphire, the Kashmir cornflower blue. Because of this, people will admit that it is the top sapphire!

As for the price, sapphires range from US$10 per carat to US$10,000 per carat, or even higher. I have seen cornflower sapphires worth more than 100,000 US dollars per carat! "

Hearing this, both Matisse and Raymond couldn't help laughing softly.

Betty, who was watching the live broadcast in the living room on the main deck of the Intrepid, also had a bright smile on her face.

The top-grade cornflower sapphire worth hundreds of thousands of dollars per carat was the set of cornflower sapphire jewelry that Ye Tian bought for Betty at the jewelry auction in New York!

After a short pause, Ye Tian continued to say:

"The price of Tanzanite is different, the cheapest natural Tanzanite will not be less than one hundred dollars per carat, but the most expensive will not exceed one thousand dollars per carat.

Of course, this is the price in the African market. In the European, American and Asian markets, the price of the top Tanzanite will rise a bit, but the increase is very limited.

Compared with sapphire, the price range of tanzanite is very small, and these tanzanites are considered to be top-notch goods, and the quantity is huge, which is also a huge wealth,..."

Before Ye Tian could give an estimate, many people had already quickly calculated the approximate value of this batch of Tanzanite, and then the exclamation sounded again.

"At least 30 million dollars! I'll go! The bastard Steven is making money too fast. It's not that exaggerated to print money at full speed, right?"

"My God! The treasures of this sunken ship are too amazing. Could it be that Rommel's treasures are all on this freighter? That greedy guy Steven is cheap!"

While people were talking about it, Matisse reluctantly covered the metal box and put it aside.

Tanzanite blue is certainly very beautiful and fascinating, but now is not the time to enjoy it to the fullest. When these treasures are salvaged later, there is plenty of time to appreciate them slowly.

Next, Matisse and Raymond moved out all the remaining metal boxes in the wooden crate, and opened them one by one to check.

The things contained in these metal boxes are different, but the things in each box are valuable and extremely dazzling. When each box is opened, there will be a sound of exclamation on the live broadcast end!

Following the tanzanite blue, a box of colorful opals appeared in front of everyone, and they were all top-quality goods in various colors!

As the ancient Roman scientist Pliny said, on these opals, you can see the flames of rubies, the color spots like amethyst, and the sea of ​​green like emeralds, which are colorful, integrated and beautiful.

After appreciating the opal, which is known as the gem palette, a box of top-quality rubies appeared in front of everyone, completely dyeing the sea water, the live broadcast screen, and even everyone's eyes red!

These rubies are like flowing blood and burning flames, full of passion!
