Chapter 15 Eyes of Africa

After a while, the three of them raised their heads with satisfaction, with expressions of admiration and excitement written on their faces.

Lila was the first to come back to his senses. His eyes fell on Zhou Jiping and he resumed his elegant speech: "Thank you Chief Damon for sending back the Bushmen's sacred objects. The Bushmen will

Always remember the brotherhood of the Damon tribe." Only this time, Lila did not speak French anymore. Elder Muba on the other side also nodded in agreement, with a flush that was very inconsistent with his age on his face, and he couldn't help it for a long time.

fade away

"You won't pay it back at the first glance?" Zhou Jiping cursed in his heart. Although Lila's words were a bit shameless, Zhou Jiping could still hear some "real feelings" in Lila from Lila's polite words.

What's more, he originally wanted to return the diamond to the Bushmen. Lila's goal of being able to appreciate Zhou Jiping was naturally achieved.

Quiet!

After Lila finished speaking, the four people in the room were suddenly speechless. No one knew what to say next.

"Well!" After a long time, Elder Muba was the first to break the awkward atmosphere and made a suggestive gesture to Lila.

"Oh," Lila nodded after getting the hint, looked at Zhou Jiping seriously and said, "Bushman and Damon have had a brotherhood for many years. In the past, my father's death was made possible because of Varna's despicable means.

Now that the mystery has been solved, the brotherhood between the Bushmen and Damon will continue to be passed down. As for the population of the various grassland tribes living near the Engro Mountains, as long as these people want to leave, the Bushmen will never stop them.

, for every person who leaves, the Bushmen will give each person a year's rations as compensation for returning to the grassland life."

This is the power of diamonds! As soon as the diamond came out, Lila didn't even bother to study whether Varner was responsible for the death of Bermacho, and immediately placed all the responsibility on Varner. As for the subsequent release policy, even more

It was a cover-up - those who were willing to leave were not hindered, as if the life in Engro Mountain was very good and no one else wanted to leave. Suddenly, the matter of imprisoning the prairie tribes' population became that the prairie tribes relied on them and did not want to leave.

He is willing to say that he is short of food, and also offers to give food to someone else after leaving. This is obviously because he has long been looking forward to unloading this burden.

"In addition, I also hope that the chief will bring my apology to the original Damon chief, Mr. Jiwayo, and ask him to come to Ngro Mountain as a guest at the appropriate time to make up for the unjust injustice he has suffered over the years," Lila promised.

Having made a wish can be regarded as a bit of conscience

At this moment, there was a gentle knock on the door, and Lila quickly picked up a book and covered it with Diamond

Then, Lila pressed the button of the person on the table, and the door was pushed open. The maid leaned in and said, "Chief, the magnifying glass is here, and Mr. Oliver is here too."

Lila nodded elegantly, with that posture and style, just like that of a medieval European aristocrat: "Invite him in."

The door was pushed open, and the male waiter came in carrying a plate, followed by a medium-sized, pale-faced white man in his fifties.

"Hello, Mr. Oliver, please sit down!" Welf said with a smile on his face, obviously familiar with the white man who came in.

Hum! The white man snorted in dissatisfaction, turned around and sat diagonally across from Zhou Jiping, then stared at the ceiling with a melancholy look on his face.

The waiter put the plate on Lila's table, put the magnifying glass on the plate gently on the table, then bowed and walked out - what a big rule! Zhou Jiping could guess it when he saw the waiter's appearance.

Leila must be a troublesome guy at ordinary times.

"Good evening, Mr. Oliver, I'm sorry to bother you so late," Lila continued to say in French in an elegant tone, full of aristocratic style.

"Stop talking about this. You kidnapped me. I don't have to do everything according to your wishes. You just say what you want." Oliver didn't even look at the people in the room. He looked at the ceiling and said in English.

Kidnapped? Zhou Jiping glanced at Welf unexpectedly, and Welf made an expression that said, "The best is yet to come."

"How are you doing these days? Are you satisfied with the reception given by the servants?" Lila was not moved by the dissatisfaction in Oliver's words and continued to speak politely.

"Without freedom, what's the use of living a good life?" Oliver still didn't look at Leila.

"Actually, I came here this time to ask you to appraise something. We asked you not to come, so we had to make this decision." Lila still stubbornly spoke in French.

"Arms dealers, drug dealers, what can I identify? You know my identity very well. If something goes wrong with me, many royal members in Europe will have to ask questions." Oliver's words were soft but hard.

"This is it. I wonder if Mr. Oliver is interested?" Lila finally opened the book covered with diamonds.

Oliver glanced at it nonchalantly, but just this one glance caught his eyes: "Oh, my God!"

Oh, oh, oh...

Next, Oliver seemed to turn into a cat in trouble, and stood up saying "Oh" one after another. Several people in the room looked at Oliver's gaffe with smiles, completely forgetting that they had seen Diamond not long ago.

His reaction at that time was not much better than Mr. Oliver’s current appearance.

In just a few seconds, Oliver's attitude changed drastically. Compared with the expression on his face when he was talking coldly to Leila just now, Oliver's eyes were filled with brilliance now, as if he had seen a living angel.

"Can I take a look?" Oliver asked, looking at the diamond with his eyes on the diamond.

"Yes, please!" Lila, like an elegant monarch, made a gesture of invitation to Oliver gracefully.

Oliver rushed to the desk in a few steps, held the diamond in his hands and looked up and down carefully. Everyone saw that his hands were shaking slightly. After watching for a while, Oliver grabbed the magnifying glass on the table and raised the diamond.

After looking at the chandelier above my head carefully for a while, I turned on the lamp on the table and continued to look at it with a magnifying glass by the light. I couldn't bear to put it down for a long time.

"Mr. Oliver, am I, an arms dealer, not lying to you?" Welf said with a smile.

Oliver looked at Welf in his busy schedule, with a bright smile on his face, but smiled without answering.

"Mr. Oliver, what do you think of this stone? How much is it worth?" Lila asked Oliver deliberately and teasingly.

"Stone? How much is it worth?" Oliver didn't pay attention to Lila's tone at all: "This diamond... is priceless. I have never seen such a big and high-grade heterochromatic diamond. What is its name?" Look?

Seeing that everyone was speechless, Oliver immediately said: "It should have a name. Every diamond like this that can shock the world should have its own name."

"Eye of Africa!" Zhou Jiping said
