Chapter 981: Princess's Tears
Not only Zhou Long alone has such an expression, but Shen Chuan and Li Lu are also like this.
At this time, wasn't the short man standing on the stage the same lewd man who had been taught by Shen Chuan just now?
It's just that the man seems to be a lot more serious now.
The original high and swollen face has also been post-processed, and it is no longer as embarrassed as it was just now.
"Damn, this big pervert turned out to be the organizer!" Zhou Long couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
I never thought that the middle-aged man who had a physical altercation with Shen Chuan just now would be the main person holding this auction.
Zhou Long couldn't help but be faintly worried in his heart.
At this time, Shen Chuan was not so excited compared to the man, and looked straight ahead with a calm face.
For some reason, even though Shen Chuan was staying at the back of the crowd of onlookers at this time, he felt that his eyes and the eyes of the middle-aged man were in a straight line.
The man also seemed to sense Shen Chuan's eyes, and even hooked the corners of his mouth with an arrogant face.
In fact, Shen Chuan was not very surprised at this time, and was even extremely calm.
He had long felt that this middle-aged man was not as simple as he imagined.
It's just that all I have in my mind is the scene I saw when I was hiding alone in the back of the truck just now.
That truckload of ""?
Shen Chuan was still very interested.
And so the auction began.
After Liang De finished the host's introduction, he stood alone in an inconspicuous place.
In an instant, only the auctioneer and host on the stage were left, who was very good at stirring up the atmosphere.
"Okay, let's not talk much. I think the purpose of everyone is to find what they think is a treasure! ”
The auctioneer said one thing after another, and said like a lotus: "Now, let's look forward to the first sale!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the only light went out, and the huge banquet hall instantly turned black.
"I'll go, what is this for! How do you pretend to be a ghost! ”
Zhou Long complained while involuntarily grabbing the corner of Shen Chuan's clothes.
Before he could finish his sentence, he heard a click, and the banquet hall became bright again in that moment, and the surrounding vision suddenly became much clearer.
"Oh, look here, look here!"
Seeing that the crowd began to chatter, the auctioneer standing on the stage hurriedly raised a loudspeaker and began to maintain order.
Shen Chuan subconsciously looked forward.
Only then did he realize that he had inadvertently seen something more on the originally empty platform.
To say that this thing is on the stage is actually a little inappropriate.
More precisely, it was placed on a small table in front of the auctioneer's body.
This thing, at this time, I can't see its face clearly.
It's just that it's wrapped in a small box on the outside.
And the appearance of this small box, Shen Chuan is very familiar.
When he was hiding behind the truck just now, he could see that the two workers had moved in quite a bit.
No matter how large or small the volume is, the outer box is exactly the same.
"Oh my god! When did you move here? Why don't we feel it at all? ”
Zhou Long also noticed the box that suddenly appeared on the table, and pointed to the front and shouted with a surprised expression.
Shen Chuan couldn't help frowning.
When the lights were on just now, the table in front of the auctioneer's body was indeed empty.
And, if you compare the weight of the box with the table, you can see that it is impossible for the box to hide in the back.
So, how did it come out of nowhere?
Shen Chuan was very puzzled.
Could it be that the lamp that suddenly went out was also to hide its appearance? see
But why hide?
Before he could think for too long, the auctioneer above the table raised his horn again.
"You've been waiting for a long time, now let me introduce the first lot!"
The auctioneer entered working mode and said as he slowly picked up the box above the thing.
"The name of the first auction item is called Princess's Tears! According to legend, it was one of the precious dowries given to his daughter by Philip IV and was a product of the seventeenth century! A total of 36.5 carats! This sapphire is a work of art that is the perfect combination of nature and art! ”
When the auctioneer introduced it, his mouth was like a fully turned on faucet, and he kept spitting words out and out, sentence after sentence.
It's obviously talking, but it makes people feel dizzy.
The box was lifted and the sapphire was completely exposed.
Everyone saw the first lot.
The blue gemstone is crystal clear, and the size is not small, and when you look at it from a distance, you can even feel that the light is shining on it.
It's like a treasure that can absorb the light of the sky, and there are even seven rainbows inside.
Laymen like Shen Chuan and Zhou Long were all slightly shocked after seeing this sapphire.
"Mom! This, this is also ......"
Zhou Long couldn't hide his surprise, looked at the sapphire from a distance and shouted, "How much does this cost!" ”
Gemstones are already very expensive luxuries, not to mention, there are so many titles in front of this one.
Soon, he got the answer.
"The starting price, 20 million, 2 million for a hammer!"
After the auctioneer said this, he closed the box that had been placed aside again, blocking the first lot again.
"Ouch, that's too stingy!"
Zhou Long couldn't help but complain: "Why are you still blocking things, what's the matter, are you still afraid of others looking at it?" ”
How many times will I ever see this thing in my life!
Thinking of this, Zhou Long couldn't help but feel a wave of regret in his heart.
And Shen Chuan, who was standing beside him, couldn't help frowning.
The gemstones are beautiful and can give a stunning feeling when viewed from afar.
But for some reason, Shen Chuan always felt that there were some things worth scrutinizing.
He had heard it clearly.
"It's not a valuable thing!"
How could this seventeenth-century sapphire not be valuable?
The first lot was very popular, and as soon as it came out, it made the people standing below ready to move.
The people who came to this auction were rich and expensive, and in their eyes, this sapphire was indeed a very valuable collector's item.
After the auctioneer announced the start of the auction, everyone began to raise their auction cards.
"Twenty-two million!"
"Twenty-four million!"
"Twenty-six million!"
"Thirty million!"
In less than half a minute, the value of this gemstone increased by 10 million.
Even, the nature of people is still growing.
After reaching 30 million, the sign was still raised.
"Mom, this is the first thing!"
Zhou Long opened his mouth wide in surprise.
He now suddenly felt that Shen Chuan was the most simple rich man he had ever seen.
At least, not to raise signs impulsively like these people.
