Teacher Wang Jixing suddenly became serious and looked at Erdan intently.

Li Erdan considered it for a while, but in the end he didn't tell the truth, because he promised to keep it a secret for Godfrey, "Professor Lu, Teacher Wang, I have my own difficulties, I can't tell you the matter. But I can tell you that these two diamonds were not stolen or robbed, but legal gain."

Legal gains? Well, if the people of Sierra Leone know, they must get the United Nations Gaota Li Erdan, which is the same as the recent three countries suing the Queen of Great Britain for the "Mountain of Light" diamond.

"Where did you find it?" Professor Lu said in a speechless tone.

"Uh, I did pick it up, but I can't say where I picked it up, because it's a bit complicated." Li Erdan.

"Since you don't want to say it, forget it. I believe you won't do some stealing and robbing. However, this diamond is so expensive, so you can leave it to us to polish and carve. Don't you feel at ease? If the things you make are not good, the value will be lost a lot, and we can't afford to compensate us!" Professor Lu expressed his concern.

In terms of carving difficulty, diamonds are far better than jade, because diamonds are too hard, brittle, and easy to break. Moreover, diamond carving requires high craftsmanship and even requires a lot of geometric knowledge. The cut surface of the carving must be seamless, like the eight hearts and eight arrows of the gods, nine hearts and one flower. As long as the carving is deviated by a slight slight, it will greatly reduce the value of the diamond. Just make two pieces of diamonds of such a large one. If the carving is well carved, the total value can reach 10 billion US dollars. Of course, a large diamond is too expensive and no one can afford it, so it can be cut into small pieces and sold.

Professor Lu, Mr. Wang Jixing of the Sculpture Association, and other staff have indeed had experience in carving and polishing diamonds, but the diamonds he made are far from comparable to those of Li Erdan, which are a thousand miles apart. Therefore, Professor Lu’s concerns are not unreasonable. Although he wants to do something and wants to make good things that shock the world and make ghosts and gods famous in history, he has to consider the risks. Once something goes wrong, he can’t afford to lose all his money, and it is not enough to pay the entire Sculpture Association’s assets.

"Professor Lu, look at what you said, can I trust you even though I am old?" Erdan.

"You can trust me, but I can't trust myself." Professor Lu said, "How about this, I have an old friend in Antwerp, Belgium. He has a very high level of accomplishment in diamond processing. He has taught many precious diamonds. I will introduce you to him. How about he will do the processing?"

There are not many countries and regions in the world that are capable of diamond processing, mainly including Russia, New York in Militaria, Antwerp in Belgium, Mumbai in the three countries, and Tel Aviv, Israel, which has been hit by a nuclear bomb. Our Chinese diamond industry is progressing slowly, and its diamond reserves are low, and it has not formed a diamond industry chain. There is a gap with the above countries and regions in diamond processing.

After thinking for a few seconds, Li Erdan said, "It's better not to be fine. Just process it here. Isn't it just two diamonds? How big a thing? We can sign an agreement, and you don't have to compensate you even if the processing is not good."

The reason why Li Erdan was unwilling to take diamonds abroad for processing was his own considerations, because his diamonds did not have a clear origin, to put it bluntly, it was called "black diamonds". If you don't get one abroad, you will go there without going back.

In the following time, Li Erdan and Professor Lu talked a few more times and finally reached an agreement to keep the diamonds in the carving association for processing. However, the agreement still needs to be signed, the compensation amount must be written, and the cost of carving must be paid. After all, private affairs are private affairs, and separation must be made.

Li Erdan brought more than two large diamonds, but also a bunch of small ones. Professor Lu asked Teacher Wang Jixing to weigh all the small diamonds on electronic balances and record them clearly in categories. After all, it is very troublesome to lose one of this thing.

For the next period of time, Teacher Wang Jixing used an electronic balance to weigh diamonds, and Comrade Li Erdan helped to get a label to record, weight, color, etc.

Although Professor Lu did not help calling diamonds, he was not idle. He was looking at Li Erdan’s ten jadeite raw stones. The ten materials were all gambling materials. If you want to know if there was any jadeite inside, you could only think about it from the clues on the outside. Professor Lu had been immersed in gambling stones for decades, but he didn’t dare to claim to be a stone gambling brick. Of course, Professor Lu is a conservative person. Although he has participated in various stone gambling conferences, he basically only looks at it and does not gamble. At most, he buys some jadeite cut out by others.

"Hey, this piece of wool is good." Professor Lu held a piece of wool that was estimated to be five kilograms in his hand. "The skin is crystalline, the structure is tight and moist, with few cracks, and there are two clear python patterns. I think this piece of wool can produce green."

Li Erdan looked closely at the material that Professor Lu held in his hand and almost laughed. Nine of his ten pieces of material could produce jade, but Professor Lu took one without jade and concluded that there was jade inside.

"You can tell if there is any jade or not?" Erdan said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll cut it."

There are ready-made cutting machines in the studio, including hand-held low-power cutting machines and fixed high-power cutting machines. Erdan asked Professor Lu to use a large cutting machine to cut because it is so convenient. Anyway, there is no jade in the wool material. However, Professor Lu was worried that he would break the "jade meat", so he insisted on cutting with a hand-held low-power cutting machine. So when Erdan and Wang Jixing completed the diamond statistics, he had to "wipe the skylight" with a bang.

"Professor Lu, let me do it, you will rest." Li Erdan said to Professor Lu.

When a person is old, he can't accept it. Professor Lu's hands trembled after cutting.

"Okay, come on. You must be careful, there may be jade inside."

Li Erdan laughed in his heart again. Next, the same cutting machine exerted greater power in his hands. The jade wool was cut off one by one, but there was no shadow of the jade meat at all.

Professor Lu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and said, "Am I misunderstood? From the surface, there should be green inside!"

"I think it's probably because I'm wrong. It's hard to break the jade in the immortals, so it's normal to take a look. Otherwise, you and Mr. Wang will pick up a piece of material and let's explain it?"
