“Although I have not taken part in the carving or analyzing of diamonds, I’m interested,” Shen Qianshu said.
“Master…” The manager seemed to have something to say, but he could not. Ye Ling glared at him, and the manager was stunned by his glare, so he did not dare to speak up.
“Sure.” Ye Ling replied.
Shen Qianshu was over the moon.
Meanwhile, the manager looked pitiful and helpless.
What a self-indulgent ruler!
The previous time when they went to a diamond mine, they needed over 20 experienced carvers to mine and 30 people to analyze. It took them one year to make it finally look like what they had planned for it to be.
Miss Shen was so young, and she was only an appraiser. Clearly, she was not cut for the job.
The manager thought to himself, She’s really… incompetent…
What a self-indulgent ruler!
That’s not how you dote on your women!
Other than this diamond, there were some other diamonds mined in the mine. There was also a diamond that was more than 400 carats. Unfortunately, due to flaws in them, not every diamond was worth astronomical values.
This flawed diamond did not really look glossy, and there were some yellow stains on it. Black impurities could be visible in the diamond, and there were also some flaws to it, but it was not big. Most of the diamonds were only below 100 carats, so they were not worth very much to the company.
Shen Qianshu was afraid of messing up, and she wanted to try carving some diamonds. The manager wanted her to gain some experience too as he was afraid that she might really know nothing about it and carve unprofessionally. So, he gave her a lot of diamonds graciously just to let her try it out.
“Why is there an underground tunnel here?” She asked.
There was even a door in it.
“The tunnel brings us to the safe room.” Ye Ling replied. Then, he came beside her ear and told her the password softly.
Shen Qianshu was speechless.
You can do it!
The few people had just come out of the ore mountain when they suddenly heard gunshots. Ye Ling squinted. It was nothing surprising when gunshots were heard in South Africa. However, Shen Qianshu pulled Tong Hua towards herself subconsciously.
The manager said, “Miss Shen, Young Master, do not be afraid. Gunshots can often be heard here. It won’t…”
He had not finished his words when Ye Ling suddenly hugged Shen Qianshu and pushed her onto the ground while using his other hand to push Tong Hua. The place that they were standing at had a mini explosion, and there was a hole in that place. The manager was blown away and was spitting blood. He had gone unconscious.
Ye Ling yelled. “Zhong Ran!”
The silent defender Zhong Ran did not give a response.
Ye Ling pulled the petrified Shen Qianshu and ran. “Bring Tong Hua along with you and run into the ore mountain. There is a path that leads you below the mountain in the tunnel. Odd numbers left, even numbers right.”
He looked at Tong Hua seriously as if he was giving him the responsibility to look after his most prized possession. “Take good care of your mother!”
“What about you?”
“Don’t mind me.”
Shen Qianshu clenched her teeth and pulled Tong Hua along as they ran into the mountain. When she turned around, she saw a group of mercenaries surrounding Ye Ling. She clenched her teeth and grabbed tightly onto Tong Hua’s hand as she turned and entered the deep part of the mountain.
Ye Ling stood up slowly and patted the non-existent dust on himself. A lanky man carrying a machine gun looked at him threateningly. “Ling, we meet again.”
Two of the men went ahead of Ye Ling and chased after Shen Qianshu and Tong Hua. The men behind them put their guns up. All the muzzles were pointed at Ye Ling.
The atmosphere was really intense. Ye Ling was facing more than ten mercenary soldiers alone.
“Where’s Zhong Ran and Ah Da?” Ye Ling’s expression remained the same.
The lanky man looked really obstinate. With a cigar in his mouth, he was full of arrogance as he said, “As long as you let us capture you without putting up a fight, I will… return you their corpses in one piece.”
“Just you guys? Seriously?”
