Chapter 124: Am I Pretty?
"Millennial Star?"
This name made Zhao Yu interested.
"The Millennium Star was discovered in 1992 by a driller in a river alluvial placer near a small village in the African region, and it was a 777-carat rough diamond with near-perfect crystals. He sold the amazing diamond, which had an auspicious weight, to a local De Beers buyer. After years of research, the diamond experts decided how to process this rare gem. In order to maximize the brilliance of the diamond, the world's top diamond cutters actually cut 75% of the weight of the 777-carat rough diamond itself, which took three years to process into a 203.04-carat, dazzling pear-shaped diamond, which is the prototype of this diamond, the 'Millennium Star'. ”
In 2000, as the clock struck midnight, the diamond was seen in front of the Queen of Hidden Wonders and 85 million television viewers around the world, and was hailed as the most beautiful diamond in the world. ”
"On October 10, 2001, De Beers made 100 necklaces in equal proportions of 1:10 to commemorate this unique diamond, and released five pieces a year, and this one you are looking at is one of them, called 'Snow Star'. ”
The salesperson gushed Zhao Yu about the origin of this diamond.
Although Zhao Yu didn't understand it very well, between the lines, it could still be revealed that this diamond was very big.
And the last sentence Zhao Yu heard clearly.
Isn't October 10, 2001 Yan Xue's birthday? And the name of this diamond is "Snow Star", which also happens to match Yan Xue's name.
Originally, Zhao Yu felt that this necklace was very suitable for Yan Xue's temperament, but now it seems that this necklace is simply tailor-made for Yan Xue.
"I want this necklace, please put this necklace on Yan Xue." Zhao Yu said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, everyone present opened their mouths wide.
The salesman was surprised that he had introduced the "Millennium Star" to Zhao Yu in detail, and Zhao Yu still wanted to buy this "Snow Star" directly without asking the price.
Shen Lingling judged that Zhao Yu should have colluded with the salesman to act because Zhao Yu didn't put it on when he wrapped the ring just now, but now it doesn't seem to be the case.
And Yan Xue looked at Zhao Yu blankly.
Yan Xue is the salesperson of this store, she is naturally familiar with the origin of this necklace, she has always felt that this necklace has an inexplicable fate with herself, but the price of this necklace is too outrageous, and she can only look at it every day.
But now Zhao Yu actually wants to buy this chain for himself?
Thinking of everything when she was a child, Yan Xue suddenly had the idea of entrusting her whole life to the man in front of her.
The salesman carefully took out the "Snow Star" necklace from the counter, and then gently put it on Yan Xueyu's neck, so excited that his hands trembled a little.
On the one hand, if this necklace is really sold, he will get a lot of commission.
On the other hand, the "Millennium Star" is De Beers' top collection, and it is also the source of inspiration behind each diamond selected by De Beers Jewelry, just like the totem of culture, every employee of De Beers is in awe of the "Millennium Star", although this is only a miniature version, but after all, it is based on the "Millennium Star", if this necklace is really bought by Zhao Yu to Yan Xue, then he is fortunate to know the owner of this necklace.
After wearing the "Snow Star", Yan Xue was a little overwhelmed.
The salesman took a mirror and put it in front of Yan Xue.
At this moment, Yan Xue's already snow-white skin is even more dazzling under the light of this diamond, even if she is now wearing the staff clothes of the De Beers store, she is still radiant.
Zhao Yu looked at Yan Xue with some fascination, Zhao Yu thought that the most beautiful woman he had ever seen when he was so old was Lin Qing, but Yan Xue after wearing the "Snow Star" was not much better than Lin Qing.
At this moment, Yan Xue's whole person was glowing.
"I..." Yan Xue was in a very complicated mood, looking at Zhao Yu, her beautiful eyes flashed: "Am I beautiful?"
Originally, Yan Xue had too many things to say in her heart, she wanted to ask Zhao Yu where she got so much money to buy such an expensive necklace, and she also wanted to ask Shen Lingling if she was satisfied now, and even more wanted to ask Bai Jie if she regretted it, but when the words came to her mouth, it turned into a coquettish "Am I beautiful" to Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu smiled and nodded.
Yan Xue also showed a happy smile.
In fact, Zhao Yu has been thinking about one thing for a while.
Is there any meaning to the money after it reaches a certain amount?
In the past, Zhao Yu only had 400 yuan a month for living expenses, but he could live a happy life.
A person has a living method of 400 yuan for 400 yuan every month, 4,000 yuan has a living method of 4,000 yuan, and 40,000 yuan has a living method of 40,000 yuan.
When I just met my aunt, my aunt gave Zhao Yu a card, and there were 500 million in the card, but Zhao Yu had already been accustomed to the way of living for 400 yuan, so it was destined that Zhao Yu could not spend money like other rich second generations, and he had the best food, clothing, housing and transportation, although Zhao Yu spent nearly 10 million to buy a car, and also bought clothes and watches worth millions of yuan accompanied by Lin Qing, and also spent 300,000 yuan to invite his classmates to eat in Haitian, but these are only a small part of the money he has, Zhao Yu cannot buy cars and clothes every day, and he will not invite his classmates to eat every three or five days。
So what do you do with the rest of the money?
Looking at Yan Xue's smile in front of him, Zhao Yu suddenly understood that he wanted to make his relatives and friends around him live better.
Although Zhao Yu and Yan Xue have not seen each other for more than ten years, just because Yan Xue was kind to Zhao Yu when she was a child, Zhao Yu felt that she was worthy of this necklace, and not only that, Zhao Yu was even more determined to take Yan Xue back to Qinhai.
Seeing that everyone's attention was on Yan Xue, Shen Lingling secretly picked up the packaging box of "Snow Star", and the price tag in the packaging box read: 16000000.
This figure made Shen Lingling doubt again, what kind of boyfriend would buy a necklace worth 16 million for a girlfriend who had just dated? This Zhao Yu looks like he is only eighteen or nineteen years old, even if he is a rich second generation, it is impossible to have so much pocket money, right?
The clerk of the jewelry store tried the jewelry in the store privately, which is definitely illegal!
Shen Lingling thought about it, walked to the inside of the store, and made a small report with the manager of the store.
The other side.
"This is wrapped up with this, and this, and the troubles are wrapped together. Zhao Yu pointed to the two pieces of jewelry that he had just looked at and said to the salesman.
One is a diamond bracelet ready to be given to Li Duo, because Li Duo is still a student, giving a ring or necklace is a little too public, so Zhao Yu picked a delicate bracelet for Li Duo, although in Zhao Yu's heart, Li Duo's status is very high, but Zhao Yu feels that giving gifts can not only look at the price of the gift, but also look at the mind, and the right one is the best.
There is also an earring that the big rod gave to Wang Mengmeng, and the other is an ear thread that is ready to go back to Lin Qing.
"That's all, check out. Zhao Yu took out the bank card and handed it to the salesman.
