The focus of the audience was on the foreigner, and although it was not uncommon for the auction to jump in price, it was really rare. The starting price of 500 million was directly doubled to 1 billion, not to mention whether there is money to pay, this courage alone is admirable.

The auctioneer was ecstatic, you know, you need to pay a deposit of 100 million yuan in advance to add bidding here, so even if this person has no money to pay the auction price of one billion yuan in the end, then the deposit of 100 million yuan will be divided between the auction house and the entrusting party in proportion, and it will not affect the continued auction of the lot, it will only increase the popularity of the lot and play a better publicity effect for the next auction, and the starting price will definitely increase by a grade at that time.

After a brief silence in the auction room, I remembered the buzz, which was the sound of everyone talking.

"Okay, this gentleman's offer of one billion is valid, and one billion is ...... for the first time" The auctioneer carried out his work with a smile on his face, although his heart was extremely excited, because his salary commission was also linked to the auction price, one billion Chinese dollars, he could at least mention a few million labor fees, otherwise he worked hard to incite people's hearts for what reason, a good auctioneer makes the lot worth the money is the basic ability.

But no one in the auction hall responded to the auctioneer, after all, a one-time price jump of 500 million is really not within the scope that ordinary people can afford. The auction is like boiling a frog in warm water, and everyone doesn't feel the pain when they heat it up little by little, but boil the water at once...... Who would dare to go into the water?

The auctioneer's reaction to everyone was unexpected and expected, after all, the advertisement when it was first advertised was "extraterrestrial diamonds" - diamonds that should not exist on the earth, and a deposit of 100 million yuan is not something that ordinary people can get, and who will get a deposit of 100 million if there is no worth 18 billion.

Now the people in the pomp and circumstance are frightened by the one-time price increase of 500 million, and the person who is asking for the price must know how to quickly and effectively scare these competitors at one time.

That's when the auctioneer comes into play, and he needs to save the day, tactfully tell the story, change people's fear of being stunned, and make the price rise further.

"Billion First ...... Has anyone increased the price? Our price increase standard is only 10 million each time, just 10 million Huaxia coins...... This diamond is the purest and hardest substance in the world, and it is a substance that has not been found on the earth...... Billion for the first time, is there anyone to increase the price......" The auctioneer's face was a little disappointed, but he couldn't delay it for too long, and the temptation was too obvious, otherwise it would be unfair to the person who jumped the price at one time, and it would also affect the reputation of the auction house.

The smile on the auctioneer's face of the "billion second ......" was a little stiff, and he cursed psychologically: Fuck, a bunch of poor people, don't you dare to increase the price of 10 million. He ignores the impact of the billion-dollar floor price on people's psychology.

The auctioneer once again showed off vigorously, after all, if no one raised the price, this would be the last time he would brag about the diamond, and it would also be the most chance to trick people into raising the price.

But there was only a buzz of discussion in the auction room, and no one was willing to bid......

"The third ...... of a billion" The auctioneer raised the small hammer in his hand unwillingly, and the corners of the foreigner's mouth who quoted a billion were slowly rising to form a perfect smile......

"Two billion." A crisp girl said clearly and forcefully, and at the same time raised the number plate in her hand.

The auctioneer's eyes widened, and he felt his heart stop beating......

"Two billion...... Billion...... Two billion ......" The auctioneer excitedly pointed to the lady who was bidding, two billion is definitely the highest bidding price he has ever encountered in his career, and more importantly, the dead knot of one billion yuan has been broken, and the first person to bid a billion is also very likely to bid a higher price.

The focus of the audience was on the woman who called out two billion...... A woman in a professional suit with clear eyebrows was holding a phone in one hand and a number plate in the other, her face was calm and expressionless, it seemed that she was a secretary or something. Although she is not a beautiful woman who has captivated the country and the city, the asking price of two billion at the moment has also raised her overall quality to a higher level.

The foreigner who asked for a billion dollars for the first time also looked back at the woman, but there was no angry or dissatisfied expression on his face, he only turned around and raised the number plate and shouted:

"Two and a half billion."

The auctioneer's mouth was wide open and his eyes widened, he was speechless......

The auction room was also unusually quiet, as everyone was shocked by the frenzied bidding of the two men, although it had only been three bids, but the price of the lot had nearly tripled......

Everyone turned their heads to look at the woman, wondering if the woman would continue to increase the price, and how much. The people in the stadium have recovered from their initial shock, and those who have already experienced three stimuli have clearly adapted to it......

The auctioneer also reacted and shouted loudly: "Two and a half billion for the first time...... The lady...... Two and a half billion for the first time...... "He stared at the woman who had just made a bid, and now there were only two people left in the audience in his eyes - he thought that the woman and a foreigner were left.

The woman was holding the phone and whispering something, probably asking her boss.

The auctioneer was still speaking on stage and did not know what to call inflammatory language, but most of it was addressed to the lady......

"Two and a half billion second ...... Has anyone increased the price? Only 10 million yuan is required for each additional price...... The lady has hung up the phone, and now all eyes are on you, please make a bid......" The auctioneer had forgotten the rules, and was bent on raising the price again with the not-so-beautiful beauty.

The woman seemed a little apprehensive under everyone's gaze, frowning and her face was a little pale, but she finally lived up to everyone's expectations and held up the number plate......

"Five billion." The audience was stunned...... Including the woman.

In the corner of the most inconspicuous last row of the auction house, a man wearing a black suit, a black trench coat, a black top hat, black gloves, and even his shirt is black, his head is bowed, and his face is covered by a high collar, so that everyone looks down on the man who looks down on you raised a sign urn and shouted "five billion" angrily, listening to the accent is a Chinese person.

The focus of the audience shifted again, including the woman who also turned her head to look at the corner, put down the number plate in her hand, and didn't pick up the phone, it seemed that she had just received the instructions for the highest price from her boss, and now there was no need to quote again......

Who would have thought that the most inconspicuous corner would shout out a shocking number to attract the attention of the audience, and even Chen Shasha, who was at the scene, felt incredulous and looked at the man in the corner who hid himself in the black with a stunned face......

"That gentleman ......" The foreigner who was the first to bid stood up, smiled at the man in the corner and said: "Huaxia is a magical land, raising many people who regard money as dung, I am very happy to meet such a person in person today, this diamond is yours." ”

The eyes of the audience wandered around the foreigner standing and the corner.

"Uh-huh-hmm...... Is the dignified tarot frightened by a mere five billion? The man in the corner said disdainfully.

The foreign man's smile froze on his face, the corners of his mouth twitched unnaturally a few times, and his pupils contracted sharply......

"Or will you Tarot snatch this alien stone from me by some not-so-bright means later?" The man in the corner said meaningfully, slowly raising his head.

The audience was stunned again, the man's face was actually wearing a black mask, only the nostrils had two small holes for ventilation and eyes exposed, but the pupils of those eyes were actually gray, so that people could not see any life......
