Chapter 1292: Diamond
"What... what is this?" Yusuf, a Middle Easterner, said in not-so-fluent English. "Everyone knows that Green likes to play tricks. I said, let him come out and meet his old friends!"
"Yeah, how did Green die?" Juliet said, "And that ridiculous will, it's clear, you're kidding us again!"
"I'm not short of money," Yusuf said disdainfully. "Green has a will, and it's for his descendants. What will he do for us?"
"That's right, don't make trouble..." At this time, Miao Kun had already come to Zhao Yu's side, avoiding Jacka far away. Standing behind Zhao Yu, he said to the hostess named Jasmine, "It's unlucky to use this kind of gimmick to entertain the detective salon, let Green come out!"
"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not!" Jasmine crossed her arms coldly and said to everyone, "It is true that my father is no longer alive. According to his own last wish, we buried his body in Miracle Island. In the garden, if anyone wants to pay his respects, he can just go and see it himself."
After Jasmine said this, the scene finally fell silent.
"To be honest, I don't know much about my father," Jasmine said, shaking her head, "You should be able to see that our relationship is not very good.
"This time, if it wasn't for inheriting the inheritance, I would not return to the island, and I even sent invitations to everyone!"
"So..." the black man in the distance said, "The Detective Salon is really not organized by Green? It's you? I don't understand. Why did you call us here in the name of Green?"
"Do you need to ask?" Yusuf said, "I have said it a hundred times just now, Green left us a will!"
"Lunch has been prepared for everyone!" Jasmine scanned the crowd and said in an arrogant tone, "But what I said is very simple, and it's not too late to eat after I finish talking!"
"Okay," Miao Kun spread his hands to signal, "Then tell me, what did Green leave for us? It can't be his perverted collection, right? Whip dripping wax?"
When Miao Kun said this, the scene burst into laughter.
Zhao Yu looked at Miao Kun with contempt, and the stalwart figure of the father-in-law in his heart was collapsing...
"I believe, all of you have heard of the rumor in Cape Town 22 years ago, right?" Jasmine ignored everyone's laughter and continued to speak in a cold tone,
"There are rumors that those diamonds were embezzled by my father!
"But, firstly, there is no evidence, secondly, there is no reason, and in the end, we have to let it go!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the word "diamond" was heard, the scene fell into silence again.
"Time flies so fast..." Yusuf recalled with a sullen face, "It seems that the South African diamond incident happened just yesterday!"
"Now, I can tell everyone responsibly that the rumors are not wrong at all, that batch of diamonds was appropriated by my father!" Jasmine said without reservation, "He wrote this matter into the will early, After I died, I finally knew the truth!"
"Ah? He's going to make trouble again..." Miao Kun said, "22 years ago, Green was already a billionaire. What did he do to rob diamonds? Make himself a living target? He doesn't lack money, is he crazy?"
"You talk like that, it shows that you still don't understand my father!" Jasmine shook her head and said, "He embezzled the diamonds not for money, but for revenge on the British government, and it was all for the sake of one breath!"
"Impossible? He... how did he snatch the diamond from under the nose of MI6?" said the black man. "At that time, after the robbery happened, at least a group of agents participated in the operation.
"The murderer and the buyer were burned to death, and the diamond disappeared. We always thought that it was the British thieves calling for the thief!"
"It's meaningless to mention these unspeakable family matters!" Jasmine spread her palms and asked calmly, "Everyone is hungry, can I make a long story short?"
When she said this, everyone had no choice but to shut up temporarily.
"Forget those old accounts, my father's will is clearly written in black and white," Jasmine said to the crowd like an experienced orator, "He hid the diamond somewhere in Miracle Island , has not moved!"
Wow...
Hearing this, everyone still couldn't restrain their uproar, and they all felt inconceivable.
"I still don't understand, you keep mentioning diamonds, diamonds..." Yusuf asked, "What does this have to do with us? Do you think there are your father's accomplices among us?"
"Of course not!" Jasmine said quickly, "The purpose of inviting everyone here is to hope that everyone can help me find the diamond!
"It says in the will that ten years ago, my father had laid out the plan long ago and left key clues in that detective salon. Therefore, only by gathering the people who attended the salon back then would it be possible to find the diamond !"
"I'm going... This... Isn't this too nonsense?" It was Jacka who spoke. At this moment, he was already attracted by Jasmine's words, and temporarily forgot about his personal grievances with Miao Kun.
"It's not free!" Jasmine said seriously, with a straight face, "My father is no longer here, and the South African diamond has passed the international prosecution period, so I don't need to hide it anymore!
"So, if anyone can help me find the diamond, I am willing to use 20% of the total value of the diamond as a reward. If you are not at ease, we can sign the contract after lunch!"
"Hahaha..." Jacka laughed loudly, and said to Jasmine, "Since it's a detective salon, then you should know what we all do, right?
"Green's trick is really the most outdated and disgusting I've ever seen! Why, based on what you say, are we going to look for diamonds? What a joke!"
"How big is Miracle Island," Gu Zhaoichiro asked curiously, "How can you leave it to us if you have such benefits? You search slowly by yourself, and you will find it one day, right?"
"To tell you the truth," Jasmine said, "The Green family's ownership of Miracle Island is not unlimited, you are all experts, you can check it.
"In two months, the Fiji government will take back Miracle Island, so I don't have that long time."
"..."
Everyone was speechless, only the shrewd Yousuf began to wring his fingers and silently calculated: "The diamond incident was not on the news, we only heard through internal channels that the lost batch of loose diamonds was worth about 7 million pounds!
"Now that 22 years have passed, based on the market exchange rate, the total value can increase by ten times, which is 70 million pounds! A 20% commission is 14 million pounds!
"Well..." He nodded vigorously, "This deal is quite a bargain, much better than my oil business! If that's the case, then I won't leave, I can look for it.
"You said... don't you?"
Everyone didn't answer.
"You miscalculated!" Jasmine corrected with a still cold voice, "Among the lost diamonds, there are some top-quality pink diamonds. If placed in today's market, just that part of pink diamonds is enough to reach a value of 100 million pounds , not to mention other diamonds!"
"..." Everyone was speechless again.
100 million pounds, Zhao Yu silently calculated, if all of them were counted, wouldn't the total value of this batch of diamonds be as much as 1 billion yuan? 20% commission, also 200 million?
"Hehe..." French Sister Tuoqiang smiled, "Diamonds are indeed worth a lot, but who would believe such absurd things?"
"That's right," Miao Kun pinched his nose, and said disdainfully, "Can this little money make us flock to you? What a joke! That... big niece..." He spread his fingers and said to Jasmine, "Let's discuss and discuss, can the commission be increased by another 20%..."
