Chapter 23 The Passionate Gem Merchant

Chapter 23: The Passionate Gem Merchant

Mogu is worthy of being the largest gem production place in Myanmar. These dozens of stores store a large number of red and sapphires, as well as many ordinary gems, such as moonstones, garnets, etc. Of course, the most famous of them is the starlight ruby, and pigeon blood red is one of the best products.

Ye Nan took Captain Tang Luo to pick the largest store and walked in. The store covers an area of ​​about forty square meters. The owner is a fat middle-aged man with a strong mustache, wearing a Burmese plaid shirt, a string of exquisite gems and Buddhist beads on his wrist, and a shrewd smile on his chubby face.

When Ye Nan and the others came in, the owner looked at it and knew that the business had come. Although these two young people were very nice, they knew that they should be jewelers from China based on their dress and temperament.

However, the two looked very awkward. Perhaps they were young people who were just new to the mall, who planned to come to Mogu to get some good things and make a small profit. Going back to China is very welcome to such guests. Often, such young people have a lot of money in their hands, and they can easily get the money full of ink fragrance from their hands.

So he ran over with a smile, bowed to the two of them with his hands together, and said with a smile in broken Chinese: "Welcome... Welcome, welcome, welcome both of you to our store!"

Ye Nan and the others also smiled and replied with a smile. It seems that this boss often comes into contact with domestic jewelers, so it shouldn't be a big problem to ask him to buy some high-quality gems.

Goang looked at the two young men with a smile, and asked in Burmese to the handsome young man who was obviously the decision: "Welcome to Mogu, I am Goang, I have the best gems in Myanmar here, I don't know what you two need?"

Lieutenant Tang Luo smiled and translated for Ye Nan. Ye Nan nodded and said to Tang Luo: "Tell him that I need some high-quality rubies. If there are suitable sapphires, I want to see them!"

Lieutenant Tang Luo turned his head and translated Ye Nan's words to the shop owner. The fat shop owner nodded frequently with a smile: "Okay... We are the best gem suppliers in Mogu, and there is no problem with everything!"

After saying that, he asked with a smile: "Do you two want to see the goods now?"

After Tang Luo came to translate, Ye Nan nodded with a smile. It would be great if he could find the gems he needed here.

The two followed the fat man into the inner room. The inner room was very large. Two young men with tattoos were sitting on the sofa inside watching TV and smoking. Seeing the fat man in, they smiled and said a few Burmese words, then got up and let Ye Nan and Tang Luo sit over.

But Ge Ang got into a small room inside, and it seemed that he had gone to get the goods.

Tang Luo turned his head and whispered to Ye Nan: "These two should be the bodyguards in the Goang shop. Mogu is the largest gem production area in Myanmar and one of the most chaotic areas in Myanmar. We must be careful!"

Ye Nan nodded, expressing his understanding that he was just here to buy things and did not want to cause trouble. He returned to China after buying things. He felt that everything here could not be used to, including food and language, and everything seemed to be out of his control. It would be better to finish it and return to China as soon as possible.

The two sat down, and soon, the chubby Ge Ang came out with a small plate, put it in front of Ye Nan, and said with a smile: "Sir, please see, these are the top red and sapphires in our Mogu, see if they are suitable!"

Ye Nan looked at the light red and blue gems on the plate, picked up one with tweezers, picked up the magnifying glass next to him and looked at it. In fact, he didn't understand the appreciation of gems at all, just to be a good example.

It seemed that he looked carefully, then looked at Ge Ang and smiled, pinched it with his fingers, felt the spiritual power emitted from his fingers running smoothly for a while, then nodded and smiled, "The goods are not bad...but is there any better quality?"

After Tang Luo translated Ye Nan's words, Ge Ang was stunned for a moment, and then quickly laughed: "Sir, aren't satisfied with such quality?"

Ye Nan smiled and said, "These qualities are very good, but what I want is better. I wonder if Mr. Ge Ang can provide it?"

"Of course, of course..." Ge Ang's face was filled with smiles, and he excitedly brought the plate in again. After a while, he took out a small box from it, opened it with a smile and put it in front of Ye Nan.

This is a blue gem the size of a soybean, crystal blue and transparent, with a light blue ray of shimmering light. Ye Nan's eyes narrowed gently. Although it was not the pigeon blood ruby ​​he wanted, such sapphires were hard to come by.

Ye Nan stretched out his index finger and gently stroked the gem. Feeling the obscure fluctuation of spiritual power, he jumped gently inside the gem. Ye Nan couldn't help but smiled with satisfaction.

He raised his head and looked at Ge Ang and smiled, "It's very good, but I don't know if Mr. Ge Ang has anything else. I want more than one!"

Ge Ang smiled and nodded, "Of course there are, I don't know how many sir need?"

Ye Nan smiled with satisfaction and said, "There are at least two red sapphires of this quality, about one to three carats, of course, it's better to have a few more!"

Go Ang thought for a while, then quickly smiled and said, "No problem. Give me two days to help me get the goods! As for the price, sapphires are about 3,000 US dollars per carat, and rubies are about 4,500 US dollars per carat. I wonder if there is any problem with sapphires!"

"As long as the quality is good enough, of course there is no problem!" After making an appointment for the pick-up time, Ye Nan smiled and left a deposit of 1,000 US dollars, and then satisfactorily left Ge'ang's store with Tang Luo.

And Ge Ang was also full of pride at this time. These two boys seemed to be quite rich, and this time they seemed to be making some money.

Ye Nan was so satisfied that he could get the gem he wanted in two days. He couldn't have thought that he could handle this matter smoothly. He was already feeling a little stressed by the past two days of running around, and he got surprisingly better.

Seeing that Ye Nan was obviously happy, Tang Luo smiled and said, "Col. Since the matter has been settled, let's relax for two days. When we get the goods the day after tomorrow, we can return to China!"

Ye Nan nodded with a smile, patted Tang Luo on the shoulder, and smiled with satisfaction: "Tang Luo, thank you so much for your hard work this time!"

Tang Luo smiled and shook his head: "It is Tang Luo's honor to be able to serve the colonel!"

Ye Nan smiled and said, "Let's go and go for a walk. I'm afraid there won't be too many opportunities to come here in the future. I'll go back to China after two days of traveling!"

The two of them started shopping in this gem market with a relaxed look on their faces. In addition to various gem shops, there are many street stalls in the market. Most of the street stalls sold in ordinary quality red sapphires, as well as various companion moonstones, garnets, etc. Although the price is not high, they look colorful and are very popular.

Ye Nan squatted down in front of a street stall with great enthusiasm. There were no good gems in this street stall. Most of them were inferior gems containing impurities, as well as some cheap moonstones and garnets.

The stall owner was a teenage girl. Seeing Ye Nan flipping up on her street stall, he quickly blushed and stammered in selling her cheap gems. Ye Nan flipping through it and wanted to pick some good-quality moonstones and garnets to take them back for Xu Min'er and Han Yan to play with.

Unfortunately, after turning around in the street stall for a while, he really couldn't find a few of them with good looks. He sighed and planned to turn around and leave, but was grabbed by the stall owner.

The little girl looked at Ye Nan with a begging look and said a lot. Ye Nan turned to look at Tang Luo beside him. Tang Luo smiled and said, "Col. She said she would buy some gems from her and said she could give you some cheaper. Her brother is sick now and is very anxious to need some money to treat her brother!"

Ye Nan looked at the hopeful gaze in the little girl's eyes, and his keen sense told herself that she was not selling her gems to deceive her into sympathy.

He smiled and casually grabbed two handfuls of moonstones and garnets from her street stall, so that the little girl could pretend. After the gem, he took out all the 200,000 kyats from his pocket and handed them over, laughing and said, "Don't look for it!" Then he turned around and left.

Two hundred thousand Burmese Kjet is equivalent to two or three hundred dollars. It can almost buy the moonstone and garnets of the girl's entire stall. Moreover, in a low-cost area like Myanmar, it seems that the little girl can use it for her younger brother to treat her!

The little girl looked at the thick stacks of money in her hand, watched Ye Nan go away with her bag, put her hands together, silently bowed to Ye Nan's back, then put away her street stall and ran happily outside the market.
