Modern Traveler-Chapter 75. Preparation
Chapter 75 - 75. Preparation
Leo hesitates for a little but still proceeds to choose what to take. On the other hand, Isaac was looking at the jewelry and thinking to himself 'Millions per carat and they all here being given' but after thinking for a moment, he also joined the others
After a while, they got their share and came back to their chair with smiles that couldn't be hidden
"I was saying, after you built the store we will sell jewelry and auction all the precious stones that can't be brought anywhere. 5% of every item sold will be your share. How about that? I will employ my trusted friend to manage the store"
"So you're saying that I have to only find you a big place and renovate it and market all the goods using my connection and I will receive 5% of the income?" he will agree 100% with this. He only needs to pay at least 50 million to buy a property and renovate it. But the income he will receive will be billions depending on how he markets it
"That's right. No risk for you. But every auction that will happen will be managed by you. I will name this jewelry store 'Gray's Vault'.
While you looking for an area to purchase and renovate, we will auction this blue diamond to gather attention" Neo opened his palm and soon a basketball size blue diamond appeared
"I'm getting numb" Kim
"I don't know anymore, I just accept everything he shows us" Leo
"That is super rare Neo. The Cullinan diamond is estimated to have been sold for $400 million decades ago. But if the Cullinan diamond was sold today it would be estimated as $2 billion. And your holding right now is 3times the size of the Cullinan and it's also a blue diamond Neo" Isaac forced himself not to show too many emotions
"So expensive? I thought this would be around $700 million. Neo you are truly my sugar daddy" Sabrina
"My net worth is so insignificant compared to the money we are talking about right now" Madison
"So what is the estimated price of this stone Isaac? I'm kinda curious"
"1 carat of blue diamond is $3.9 million. Looking at the diamond you are holding, it is 23,000 carats. If we follow that price it's worth $89.7 billion. Not considering its rarity and almost impossible to find this big. At last, we are talking about hundreds of billions in this one"
"This. Can we sell that thing at that kind of price? Elon Musk has $332 billion, but almost all his money was in his business" Leo
"Yes. No one can buy this" They all share the same sentiment
"Don't forget that companies with trillions of assets can buy this. Also, the royalty of each nation will fight for these stones, not to mention the businesses that make jewelry" Isaac was not worried about the buyers. He has another concern more than anything else
"That's good. We can use this to boost the name of the jewelry store" Neo
"Neo, if I reveal this stone to the entire world, it won't just attract potential buyers. Thieves and terrorists will be interested in it as well. There's even a chance that a legitimate company might go so far as to contract someone to kill us in order to acquire this stone" Isaac
"Desperate people will kill for $1000 or even less. Much more with that kind of value in the stone" Madison
"You made a good point. I didn't consider that. Wait a moment"
*Ultron how much for auto defense item?*
*There are many items to consider, host, but based on your conversation, you need the 'Secure Wrist.' When you wear this item, if it detects a threat to your safety, it will create a protective barrier that cannot be penetrated for at least 10 minutes. Additionally, it is capable of transmitting messages if the situation is critical. This item can be used up to five times. The cost of the 'Secure Wrist' is 500 SP.*
*buy 30 of those items Ultro*
*buying secure wrist... Complete. Remaining SP 515,000*
"Okay. Isaac how many loved ones do you have"
"Why? Me, my wife, and 3 children" Isaac
"You will be the one who will announce this item so you need protection and your family" Neo retrieved the item "This is a 'secure wrist'. You will be protected when it detects that you are being ambushed or threatened. Wear it, I will show you how it works" Isaac wears the item and waits for Neo to
Neo gathered lightning at the tip of his finger and fired it at Isaac. Isaac wanted to dodge, but it was already too late. As soon as the lightning approached him, a transparent light surrounded his body, protecting him from any danger.
"This is what I'm talking about. For 10 minutes, you won't receive any damage. As soon as the item is activated, it will send an emergency signal to me. It can only be active five times" Neo
"So cool. Give me one neo" Sabrina
"I will give you one later. So you have 5 family members, I will give you 5 of these and distribute them to your loved ones. Please explain to them how it works, use the one we tested as an example. You will be the center of this so you need to protect your loved ones, in case they use dirty tricks. I will also give you one Kim and Leo to protect yourself" handing them the item
"This is good, now my biggest concern is gone. So how do you plan to auction it?" Isaac
"I think you should make a video regarding this item and send it to all media outlets. Tell them that this item will be auctioned in 4 days. That way majority of people with bad intentions won't have time to prepare" Neo
"That sounds like a plan. But how about the security if the auction starts?" Kim
"We will hire many guards for that, but that is just for the appearance. I will be guarding the whole area. Here, take this"
Ultron, can you buy me a box that cannot be destroyed and can only be lifted by authorized users? Additionally, make it transparent and adjustable in size*
*buying Odins box...complete. Remaining SP 514,000*
"I will also provide this container. This container cannot be destroyed or lifted without my permission. With this, we won't have to worry about the item being stolen"
"Where do you get all these items Neo? The technology these items use is beyond the earth" Isaac
"Don't worry too much. Soon I will tell you. Okay, the business discussion is done. Let's eat" Neo stood up and led them to the kitchen. They all begin eating lunch
"Ah, we will leave now neo. Thank you for hosting this great food. I can't believe that you can cook" Isaac
"You should make a restaurant neo" Leo
"If you do, tell me. I want to eat this kind of food every day" Kim
"I will send someone to take the gold neo. And for this precious stone, wait for the news later. This will make the world tremble" Isaac, Kim, and Leo bid their farewell
"Me too baby. I will go to work now" Madison kissed me and drove her car away. Same with Sabrina, she also leaves the house to work
