Chapter 307 Raising a child is a costly job

"I wonder how much Mr. Qin knows about meteorites." Du Chengxiang asked with a smile.

Qin Guan shook his head and said, "I don't really understand it, I just heard about meteorite investment from a friend, so come and have a look, if it's suitable for collection, I'll buy a piece or two."

Du Chengxiang smiled, most of the meteorite collectors in China are now investing, and it is still the kind of betting investment, very few people really understand meteorites.

Taking Qin Guan into the collection room, there are rows of meteorites on display, with different sizes and shapes, which can give Qin Guan a unified feeling. These meteorites are really ugly.

Some are like a rock, some are covered with rust, some are black and dirty, and some are like a pile of iron slag, all messed up. This is Qin Guan's impression of meteorites.

Du Chengxiang was very patient. He popularized meteorite knowledge to Qin Guan and taught on the spot.
"Meteorites can be divided into three categories according to structure, structure, and silicate content: stony meteorites, iron meteorites, and stony-iron meteorites. According to the different minerals present, they are further subdivided into different names.

"To be honest, there are no more than 1 people in the world who actually participate in the collection and trading of meteorites. In China, this number is only about 100 people. It is much hotter abroad than in China."

"Many auction houses now have meteorite auctions. For example, in 2008, Christie's in Paris auctioned a 45-kilogram African Namibian meteorite for 7.825 euros. In 2010, a meteorite auctioned by Sotheby's in Paris sold for 32 million euros."

"Now the price of meteorites has been rising year after year, and more and more people like meteorite collections, and some prices have exceeded tens of millions of dollars."

"Now this area is in the country and it is still in its infancy. If you like this industry, my brother advises you to enter the industry early. It is definitely a good choice for investment. You must know that the most profitable group of people in all industries will always be the first to enter the industry That group of people."

"We are trailblazers and can even become domestic rule makers."

Qin Guan found that this guy was very good at fooling people. No wonder he was named the president. Hearing what he said, he knew that these people in China wanted to stir up the domestic meteorite market.

Stopping in front of a meteorite, this meteorite is about the size of a basketball, and it is blue-gray all over, with uneven yellow rust spots on it. If ordinary people see this black and dirty thing, they will definitely think it is a rock.

Qin Guan patted the stone, and Qin Guan found that the sword pill in his body trembled more violently, that's right, it was it.

Qin Guan said in a nonchalant tone, "What is the price of this meteorite?"

Du Chengxiang looked at the stone and said: "This is a stone-iron meteorite. The content of silicate and nickel-iron alloy in this type of meteorite each accounts for about 50%. This piece weighs more than 40 kilograms and has a price tag of 620 million. Take away 600 million."

Qin Guan was speechless, this thing is really not cheap.

For such a thing, Qin Guan really doesn't know what he is worth.

"500 million, I'll just test the waters and collect one for fun."

"Brother, the price I want is not high, but it's the first time to do business, I'll give you a cheaper price, let's say 580 million, 5858 has a good meaning."

"No ink marks, I'll take the 520 million. If it doesn't work, I'll retreat. Anyway, I'm just playing for fun. If it doesn't work, forget it." Qin Guandao.

"OK, it's a deal."

The two clapped their palms together and shook hands.

Qin Guan transferred 520 million yuan, so this meteorite is his.

Saying goodbye to Du Chengxiang, Qin Guan found a hotel to live in, took out the meteorite, Qin Guan stroked his hand on the meteorite, the sword ball passed through Qin Guan's palm, and drilled into the interior of the meteorite, Qin Guan found that the meteorite was visible to the naked eye The speed slowly melted, and after a few minutes, a meteorite the size of a basketball turned into a pair of debris.

And Jian Wan returned to Qin Guan's body at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

"You can really eat, more than 500 million will be gone at once, let's see if it can hatch." Qin Guan began to communicate with the system Moonlight: "Moonlight, is this okay?".

"Host, Jianwan has absorbed 1.08% of the extraterrestrial iron crystals, please continue to work hard."

Qin Guan's eyes widened.

"What, such a large meteorite, only absorbed 1.08%?!"

"The sword pill only absorbs the essence, which is the iron crystal from the meteorite." The system replied.

Qin Guan calculated in his mind, good guy, at this price, to incubate Jianwan, at least 5-6 million funds are needed, and it is really not easy to feed it.

More importantly, Qin Guan wondered if he could find so many meteorite crystals.

Well, who told me to want the best fairy sword, work hard.

Qin Guan took out his phone to contact Du Chengxiang, and when the phone was connected, Qin Guan said, "Boss Du, can you do me a favor."

For Qin Guan, a big client, Du Chengxiang was very enthusiastic, "Say it, Mr. Qin."

"I want to buy more meteorites, but I don't know what channel to use." Qin Guan asked.

Du Chengxiang smiled and said: "If you are in China, I can help you contact those collectors. We don't have a mature market in China. Good meteorites are generally in the hands of individual collectors. Or you can go abroad to see them, such as the United States or Europe. More people play this, and there is a certain scale of the market.”

"Can you give me a recommendation?"

"definitely no problem."

Robert Haig, a professor at UCLA, is also the most authoritative collector of meteorites in the world. He has been collecting meteorites since he was 23 years old, and now he is the person who collects the most meteorites in the world.

At this time, Qin Guan had already boarded the plane to the United States.

It has to be said that Du Chengxiang still has a certain amount of energy, and he was recommended by Professor Robert Haig.

Another important point for Qin Guan to come to the United States is that the United States is also a country with frequent meteorite transactions. It has the largest number of meteorite collectors and a relatively professional trading market, so Qin Guan must not miss it.

At the University of California, Los Angeles, Qin Guan met Professor Haig, "Professor Haig, I'm really sorry."

"Hello, Mr. Qin, Du has already stated your intention to come. Welcome to join the ranks of meteorite collection. I believe this industry has a very bright future. Come and see my collection." Robert Haig was still very enthusiastic.

Robert Haig's collection is much richer than Du Chengxiang's. The large collection room is three to four hundred square meters. It is luxuriously decorated and well protected, just like a jewelry storage room.

Robert Haig introduced everything to Qin Guan, and kept telling his experience of collecting these meteorites.

Haig described the experience of collecting meteorites as thrilling, exciting and full of legends like the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark.

“I have traveled to every continent on Earth except Antarctica in search of fortune that fell from the sky. In Chile, Namibia, Australia, Mexico and Egypt, in the wilderness, I have had several near-death situations.”

"As long as NASA predicts when and where there will be a meteor shower, I will be there at the exact time. No matter where I am, no matter what means of transportation I take. In addition to looking for meteorites myself, I also buy from locals."

"Let me tell you about my experience. In 1992, I bought a meteorite weighing 31 tons in Argentina with a lot of money. It was the largest meteorite I bought in my life. But when the meteorite was shipped out of customs, the Argentine government took I was arrested on charges of smuggling, and the government believed that this rare meteorite should belong to the Argentine state. Although I was released later, it is a pity that the meteorite was left in Argentina forever."
