Chapter 335: A local tyrant is willful

On the display before the auction, the other nineteen pieces of jewelry were introduced, and the auctioneer deliberately did not introduce this last one, or even mentioned a word, deliberately whetting everyone's appetite, and at this moment, he mysteriously revealed the mystery.

"To be honest, I admired the generosity of the Mitterrand family very much, and I was shocked when I learned the name of this lot, and I am sure that everyone here will be as captivated by its beauty as I am. ”

The auctioneer came to boast as usual, and then looked at the hotel manager waiting at the door of the reception hall, "Please turn off the lights." ”

The manager had apparently received the approval of old Mitterrand, and as soon as the auctioneer had finished speaking, he pressed the main switch behind the door.

In an instant, the entire reception hall was pitch black.

People were suspicious for a while, but the next moment, they all turned their heads to look in the same direction.

The jewel that hung on the last model's chest was shining brightly, its dazzling emerald green glow like the eye of an elf in the dark night!

"Wow, what did I see!"

"Oh my God, that's not true. ”

"It's so beautiful, it's so charming!"

"Honey, you know what, I'm already hooked on it......"

……

The crowd boiled.

No woman can resist the sparkle of a gemstone!

"Thirty years ago, at an auction, my father witnessed it being collected by the Mitterrand family as an auctioneer. Tonight, I have the privilege of witnessing it to its new owner. ”

In the darkness, the auctioneer's voice sounded again, adding a bit of mystery to the necklace, "We named it Lingjing, and so far, this has only appeared on the market! Thirty years ago, it sold for $30 million, and now, the auction house estimates it at $300 million." ”

$300 million!

I'm good!

Many people gasped, but many more people were greedy!

It's unique in the world, and it's worth the price!

"I'll pay 300 million!" an anxious guy couldn't help but bid.

"Three hundred and ten million!"

"Three hundred and twenty million!"

……

Immediately, many people increased the price one after another, and in the blink of an eye, it was 350 million, and at this time, the auctioneer had not even announced the start of the auction......

"Everyone, please wait. The auctioneer raised his voice, "If you want to bid, you have to wait for the lights to turn on first, otherwise, your offer will be in vain, and I won't see you." ”

Rumble......

The crowd erupted in laughter.

Isn't it, the lights in the reception hall haven't been turned on yet......

The hotel manager closed the main switch, and the reception hall was lit up again, and the light of the "spirit crystal" was masked, but it still shone in people's hearts.

"Now, please bid. The auctioneer smiled.

"Three hundred and sixty million!"

As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone added 10 million, and then, someone kept raising the price, and soon it exceeded 400 million.

Subsequently, the increase in price slowed down somewhat, but it also exceeded 450 million step by step, exceeding 50% of the auction estimate, which shows people's preference for the "unique" spirit crystal in this world.

Old Mitterrand held a glass of red wine with a relaxed face.

This scene had long been expected by him.

Selling this spirit crystal, making a lot of money is secondary, and the prestige of the Mitterrand family will rise with it, which is what he really wants.

Clearly, his purpose was achieved.

Su Chi has never made an offer, and his subconsciously clenched fists have also been released, and he tastes a glass of red wine leisurely.

"Boss, why didn't you make a bid? I thought you were going to take it down. Peng Hu on the side glanced at Su Chi, "Don't you think it's a good match for your sister-in-law?"

Bid?

For the sake of a mere piece of low-grade spirit stones, hundreds of millions of dollars were built...... Am I full?

When the auctioneer said the reserve price of 300 million, Su Chi gave up.

"I want to buy it too," Su Chi glanced at Peng Hu playfully, "Do you have the money to lend me?"

At this point, the offer is almost $500 million.

"Cut!" Peng Hu glanced at his lips.

Not to mention that he can't take out 500 million US dollars, even if he can, he won't lend Su Chi such an outrageous gem!

That's not how a loser loses!

Bidding is still soaring, and soon it exceeded 600 million.

Su Chi and Peng Hu were not interested in this "spirit crystal", and there were many people who were interested.

At this price, what they value is no longer the spirit crystal itself, but its potential appreciation value!

"600 million for the first time," the auctioneer was still bewitching, "in thirty years, its value has skyrocketed dozens of times, which is much more cost-effective than most investments, as long as it is still a unique product, the price will definitely rise again!"

"I'll add another million!"

As soon as the auctioneer's voice fell, someone immediately raised the price by one million.

"Six hundred and ten million!"

The other person raised the price even harder, but it was soon surpassed by the other people's offers.

Bidding continues to rise.

These people are all gambling, there has been no second one in thirty years, and this spirit crystal is very likely to be a unique product!

Unique in the world!

Looking at the group of upper-class people who were about to be fooled and lame by the auctioneer, Su Chi laughed secretly in his heart.

One-of-a-kind?!

I only have two!

One was given to Lin Xiaoqiu, and the other was still in my hands.

"If the little girl knew that the 'dowry' he gave her was really worth hundreds of millions of dollars, I don't know what the reaction would be......" Su Chi thought proudly for a while.

When the bids exceed 650 million, there are fewer bidders.

The price is now more than double the auction house's estimate, and no matter how high the price is, the investment is too risky. After all, this is just a gem, unlike a famous painting and other works of art, the painter has been dead for dozens or hundreds of years, and it is absolutely unique.

In the end, there were only two people left who were still bidding.

One of them was an old man in his sixties and seventies, and from the discussion of the surrounding crowd, Su Chi learned that this person was an invisible rich man who loved to collect all kinds of unique items all his life.

The other person was a woman, with her back to Su Chi, Su Chi couldn't see her face, judging from the way she dressed, she should be from the Middle East, and she should be the wife of a Middle Eastern tyrant.

In the end, the old man who liked to collect unique products still lost to the Middle Eastern tyrant, and the "unique product" spirit crystal was bought by the woman for 710 million!

"The local tyrant is really willful!" Su Chi shook his head and smiled.

Middle Eastern tyrants show off their wealth, they always only buy expensive things and don't buy the right ones, and the price is not expensive, no matter how good they are, people don't want them.

However, spending more than 700 million to buy such a piece of jewelry, even in the Middle East, this woman is considered to be the best.

The last lot was sold, the auction ended, and the Middle Eastern woman left after the closing.

The celebration reception also came to an end, and Meng Ruyun, Liu Ying, He Wei and Su Yuer left together. Afterwards, the guests said goodbye to Mitterrand Elderand.

Su Chi was about to leave with Peng Hu and Liu Xin, but Hu Mei stopped him.

"Dream is always waiting for you in the presidential suite on the top floor of the hotel. ”
