Bai Lan couldn't figure it out even more when he said this.

"Utilization? You're going to let him take advantage of you? ”

"No, I'm going to make him think he's using me."

Liu Lang smiled and didn't speak again.

At this time, Master Qiao took the stage and announced that the final finale lot was about to appear in three minutes.

But Shen Wanjie hadn't come back yet, Liu Lang began to realize that something was wrong, and even subconsciously thought of what would happen, so he turned his head to look at the location of Genting Tian and Ye Tianqiu, and found that these two people were not there.

Without waiting for Liu Lang to think about it, the next person to come to the stage was Li Xuehong, the chief appraiser of the Zhonghai Jade Association.

It was Master Qiao who introduced Li Xuehong to appear, as the chief architect of the China Overseas Jade Association, the Lawyers Association held an auction, and he had to appear and say two words no matter what he said about this appraisal.

As soon as Li Xuehong came to power, he seemed to have noticed Liu Lang, and the eyes of the two collided directly.

But Liu Lang didn't take Li Xuehong seriously, he hadn't seen this old guy for a while, and now goodbye, but Erer.

But Li Xuehong actually got together with the Ye family, which proves that he also knows his identity.

Liu Lang began to feel that things were not as simple as he imagined, and many of the people he had met before seemed to be able to come into contact with the ancient law circle, and now he has become a part of this circle.

On behalf of the Bar Association, Li Xuehong first thanked everyone who came here to participate in the auction today, and then began to warm up the last few finale lots.

Master Qiao and Li Xuehong, two people who are highly respected in the eyes of the outside world, stood together, and the people on the audience were still very excited, the craze was better than the previous one, and I don't know how much better it was than the previous atmosphere, and even Bai Lan began to wonder what the final finale lot would be.

But Shen Wanjie hadn't come back yet, and when Liu Lang looked at the location of Yun Dingtian and Ye Tianqiu, he found that these two guys had already returned.

"Huh?"

Liu Lang was stunned for a moment, and began to have an ominous premonition in his heart.

Although Ye Tianqiu didn't look at Liu Lang's side, Yun Dingtian threw a provocative look.

Liu Lang subconsciously felt that something was wrong, he wanted to leave now to find Shen Wanjie, but if Ye Tianqiu and Yun Dingtian did anything, it would be in vain to leave now.

Of course, I also noticed that Shen Wanjie hadn't come back yet, something was wrong, and I hurriedly asked Liu Lang what was going on.

"It should be that the Ye family and the Yun family have made a move, and they will talk about it after the auction is over."

Liu Lang held Bai Lan's hand and motioned for her to keep quiet.

"Okay, now the second half of the auction has officially begun."

On the auction stage, Master Qiao and Li Xuehong seemed to be talking about cross talk, and you introduced the whole opening sentence by sentence.

"There are two finale lots, which will be announced by me and Mr. Li, and now please welcome Mr. Li to unveil the mystery of the first finale lot."

Under the foreshadowing of Master Qiao, Li Xuehong picked up the microphone, and someone in the background pushed the exhibition car covered with a red curtain on the stage.

"You must have all paid attention to the recent turmoil in the diamond market, and under the leadership of our China Overseas entrepreneur Liu Lang, the retail market has seen a large-scale halving of the price of diamonds between 30 cents and 5 carats."

Li Xuehong's opening directly pulled Liu Lang in, and even the spotlight at the auction venue gave Liu Lang a close-up.

Almost all the eyes of the audience were fixed on Liu Lang and Bai Lan next to him.

To be honest, Liu Lang didn't like this feeling very much.

He doesn't like to be in the spotlight, and he doesn't like to be stared at by so many people and so many pairs of eyes.

As the discussion slowly subsided, Li Xuehong on the stage said again: "However, the turmoil in the retail market has not affected the real polished diamonds for the time being, and tonight, our first finale lot is ......"

As Li Xuehong personally opened the red curtain on the exhibition car, everyone was shocked when they saw the diamond necklace placed in the glass case of the exhibition car.

It was a large dark blue diamond, very large, the size of a pebble, and it was shining with a strange light and was set on a silver frame, and next to it was a circle of small diamonds estimated to be about 5~6 carats.

"This one is so pretty." Bai Lan suddenly sighed.

"Do you like it?" Although Shen Wanjie's whereabouts were unknown for the time being, which made Liu Lang a little upset, he still heard Bai Lan's liking.

Bai Lan nodded subconsciously, but then shook her head and said, "I like it, but it's too expensive and not worth it." ”

"You can't buy a liking for any amount of money, stupid."

After Liu Lang gently patted Bai Lan's little head, he stopped talking.

At this time, Li Xuehong also took advantage of the craze to introduce: "This dark blue diamond is known as the star of hope, weighing about 112.5 carats, one of the world's top ten famous diamonds and one of the most expensive diamonds in the world." ”

"For more than 300 years, this diamond necklace has had six directors, but it has had the strength of its owner to die one by one, so it is also known as the diamond of doom."

Li Xuehong continued: "But the diamond represents eternity, is beautiful, and there are also people who recognize wearing this star of hope to reach the pinnacle of life, more than ten years ago, the legendary star of hope was cursed to end because it was involved in the Smith History Museum of the United States." ”

"And tonight." Li Xuehong suddenly raised his voice: "Foreign consortium, the Adam family brought him out of the Smith History Museum and handed it over to our Zhonghai Jade Association for auction." ”

The Adam family, which suddenly appeared in Li Xuehong's mouth, became the object of everyone's discussion at the scene in an instant.

Liu Lang is somewhat familiar with this name, and it seems that when Zheng Guang was in a lawsuit, he had dealt with the company of the Adam family, which seems to be one of the families that control the diamond pit abroad.

Now I can't help but be angry, come to Zhonghai?

"There was an authority that estimated it at $350 million, but the Adam family also put a lot of effort into bringing the Hope Star out of the Smith History Museum, so the Adam family hoped that his starting price could be $400 million, which would be converted into 3 billion hot summer coins, and the increase should not be less than 100 million hot summer coins each time."

As soon as Li Xuehong's voice fell, a heated discussion began below, and the sky-high price of 3 billion made these people who were eager to try it prohibitive.

Even Bai Lan next to him gasped, 30 billion, it's just the starting price, if someone really likes it, it can't avoid a bloody price increase, and the final transaction price is probably unimaginable to ordinary people.

There are many billionaires present, and there are not a few who are worth billions, but who would want to spend billions to buy such a diamond necklace.

There are a lot of antiques, but they have never been antiques for the time being, so this star of hope has a history of more than 300 years, but the bad luck when Li Xuehong introduced it really scared some superstitious businessmen.

Of course, there are also people who believe that with their integrity, they can control the bad luck on this star of hope, and even turn the bad luck into good luck in the end, but they must have so much money first.

And Liu Lang actually didn't listen to Li Xuehong's introduction of those that he didn't, he always thought that there was no value in collecting for the time being, after all, it was not a rare gem, and even artificial could be imitated with a better texture.

Although this natural diamond is indeed very beautiful, the sky-high price of 3 billion does make him feel a waste.

But what did Bai Lan say just now? How pretty?

It's just pretty, because it's expensive.

So when everyone hadn't reacted yet, Liu Lang directly raised his card.

"3.5 billion."

directly raised the price of 500 million in one breath, and the eyes of everyone present looked at Liu Lang again, they were all guessing who would be the first to bid, but they didn't expect it to be Liu Lang.

Even Bai Lan grabbed Liu Lang's arm: "Are you really crazy?" I don't want this. ”

But the price is out, so it's Bai Lan's turn to want it, Liu Lang held down Bai Lan's hand and asked her not to speak.

Don't look at the seven or eight hundred people in this venue, but 80% of them are lively, and the people who can finally bid the price have already sold in the first half of the auction.

Now the price of the finale lot, there are really few people who can argue with Liu Lang, Liu Lang originally thought that the next offer would be Zhang Chenglong, but he didn't expect that before Zhang Chenglong made an offer, Ye Tianqiu actually raised the sign in his hand.

"5 billion."

The audience was in an uproar again, the starting price of 3 billion, Liu Lang reported 3.5 billion with one hand, and as a result, Ye Tianqiu made a move of 5 billion?

It's just that I don't want to go with more money.

However, the identities of Liu Lang and Ye Qianqiu, almost everyone present knew it, and they had no doubt that these two people were pretending to be coerced, after all, people could really get so much money.

This is Bai Lan calling Liu Lang next to him: "Don't marry again, let Ye Tianqiu be the big boss of this wrong." ”

"I'm afraid it won't be my turn." Liu Lang smiled mysteriously and didn't raise his card.

Just when everyone else thought that Liu Lang was intimidated, another voice sounded.

"6 billion."

The eyes of the audience followed the sound and forgot the past, it turned out to be Zhang Chenglong.

Liu Lang's gaze also shifted to the past, and he noticed that Ye Tianqiu frowned, as if he didn't expect Zhang Chenglong to bid.

Everyone also began to discuss, how can Zhang Chenglong say that he is also the overlord of the underground world in Jiangbei, known as the Dragon King of Jiangbei.

And Ye Tianqiu is the eldest young master of the Ye family, one of the four major families in Beicheng, with strong financial resources and not to be underestimated.

Could these two people be torn apart by such a diamond?

One side is Jiangnan, and the other side is Jiangbei, so there is a good show to watch now.

Just when everyone was talking, Liu Lang noticed that the nun actually went to Ye Tianqiu's side from the side aisle, and before that, the nun had not been there.

Liu Lang also noticed that after the nun returned to Ye Tianqiu's side, she whispered a few words to Ye Tianqiu, and then Ye Tianqiu suddenly glanced at him, and when he noticed that Liu Lang was also looking at him, Ye Tianqiu quickly withdrew his gaze.

"8 billion."
