Chapter 170: Sky-high Blood Diamond

Sensing Zhang Xinyu's angry gaze, Jingyi felt a little ridiculous in her heart. Isn't she the one who is with him now? What does she have to hold a grudge against her, an ex-wife who is not by his side and does not have any influence?

Maybe jealousy is a woman's nature.

Soon after the iceberg man took her to a seat, the auction began. The person presiding over this auction is a middle-aged bald fat man, although his appearance is not pleasing, but he has an excellent eloquence, eight-sided exquisite style, and is very good at driving the atmosphere of the scene. His deep tenor voice fluttered above the hall, encouraging people to scramble for the auction items, and the atmosphere was lively.

At first, she was a little interested, but as she became hungrier and hungrier, her attention began to drift and all sorts of delicacies came to her mind. The iceberg man stared at each auction item very intently, but didn't see which item he was interested in?

Jingyi gently tugged at his sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Eh, did you come to this auction to see the excitement?" Why don't you hold up your sign? If you don't make a move, you won't get anything! ”

The iceberg man turned his head to look at her, did not speak, and continued to stare at the auction items above.

Jingyi was bored, so she had to withdraw her gaze and continue to focus on the auction.

As the minutes ticked by, the host suddenly raised his voice and announced in a very excited tone: "It's finally time for the auction of the last item tonight!" This is a rare piece of 20 carat diamonds, a very rare blood-red color, without any blemishes, and of excellent texture, made by three experts who worked 14 hours a day and spent 12 months pondering, you see, what a perfect cut, no matter which angle you can feel the brilliant light and fire of this diamond! ”

Before the host finished the introduction, someone began to bid: "200 million!" "It was a middle-aged man who made the bid.

Then Lei Shaochen raised the sign: "I'll give 500 million!" ”

As soon as these words came out, a ripple was caused in everyone. This is a bid in the unit of 100 million, a slight change in the number, that's an incalculable amount of wealth!!

What made people gasp even more was a man in black, wearing a dense black trench coat and a pair of black sunglasses, a veritable man in black!!

And his price is also the most amazing: "800 million!" A hint of gloom flashed in Lei Shaochen's eyes, although he knew that there would be many competitors, but this price was beyond his heart's ability to bear! Damn, Grandpa told him to get this blood diamond! No matter the cost, but a twenty-carat blood diamond of 500 million is already its ultimate value! How can there still be people who come out to 800 million? What does this blood diamond have to do with the blood diamond necklace that everyone scrambled to grab before?

Rumor has it that pheromones dipped the weapon preparation method into a blood diamond necklace, but what does this have to do with blood diamonds? Can't all blood diamonds be embedded, right? This is obviously impossible, and in that case, could it be that it has nothing to do with the Blood Diamond Necklace? As long as it's a blood diamond?

Also, why is Grandpa so concerned about this blood diamond? What's even more strange is that no matter how much he asks, he doesn't tell himself the reason? What is Grandpa hiding from him?

Lei Shaochen frowned tightly, staring at the blood.

The host saw that no one raised the price again, so he began to count down: "Eight hundred million once." After speaking, he looked around the stage and continued: "Eight hundred million twice." Then his gaze circled around the crowd again.

Just when he was about to open his mouth to say 800 million three times, the deal.

Suddenly, someone shouted: "Two billion! This was a sensation in the audience, and they all looked at the people holding signs. Jingyi was shocked when she heard the iceberg man suddenly open his mouth to call the price, two billion !! The iceberg man must be crazy! People only give 800 million, you can give 900 million, why do you want to give 2 billion!! Is it too much money? If that's the case, you can give her some points!

The eyes of the audience were focused on him, but he was still in a cold posture, as if the person who spoke just now was not him, and this matter had nothing to do with him, but Jingyi, who was sitting next to him, was looked at by so many eyes, and felt hot and a little uneasy, she reflexively looked in the direction of Lei Shaochen, and found that he was staring at herself, so she lowered her head weakly. The iceberg man seemed to sense the uneasiness in her heart, and gently grabbed her shoulder, and his fingers didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional to scratch her bare skin, so not affectionate!

The host was very excited and shouted on the stage: "Two billion once, two billion twice, two billion three times!" Deal! He shouted three times in a row, with almost no pause in between, it seemed that he was very satisfied with this price, probably such a price has far exceeded the price of the owner of the blood diamond! Otherwise, the host would not dare to make a decision without hesitation.

Finally, Mr. Yang Zhicheng, an antique collector who owns the auction items, was pushed into a wheelchair and appeared on the stage.

The moderator thoughtfully handed him the microphone and stood respectfully to the side, waiting for Mr. Yang's speech.

Mr. Yang took the microphone and said slowly: "Dear gentlemen, young ladies and gentlemen, good evening, I thank you very much for coming, it is with your strong support that the auction will go so smoothly." I don't have any hobbies in my life, except that I like to collect all kinds of art treasures. I have spent my whole life on this hobby, but I have no regrets, I have been given these treasures of the world, my heart is full of riches, my soul has been greatly enjoyed, it seems to be a feast of life, to have them, to taste them, this is the greatest pleasure of life. However, not long ago, my family doctor told me that I had cancer, although it was only the early stage, and there was a possibility of cure, but it required my full cooperation in the treatment, so I was admitted to the hospital, where I saw countless people who were suffering from illness, their bodies were tortured by illness, their souls were destroyed, as patients, they were the most painful type of people in the world, they were disgusted by their families, abandoned by society, and their mental damage was far greater than physical torture. I have a very lovely and beautiful adopted daughter, she is a very caring child, she accompanies me without regrets, I once inadvertently mentioned that after a hundred years I want to leave all the family property, including these precious treasures, to her, she solemnly rejected my proposal, and said to me seriously, she said, Dad, I have a lot of skills, even without these riches of yours I can still live well, but if you must leave these to me, it will hurt me. My life will lose the motivation to fight and live in decadence every day, this life will destroy me and turn me into a spiritual beggar! Dad, these riches are earned by your hard work, you have the right to control them, if I were you, I would make the most of them, such as establishing a Yang charity fund to help these people who are suffering from illness, so that they can regain their healthy bodies, what a meaningful thing! I think she is right, these treasures, these treasures, they have accompanied me through countless happy days, caressing their magnificent appearance, feeling their stories, it is a very wonderful thing, I am willing to take them out and sell them to those who are destined, so that their beauty can be more appreciated, and the money from these sales, I will establish a Yang Charity Fund to help those who are suffering. Thank you again! Thank you! ”

The applause was thunderous, and people were moved by the kindness of this collector, and their hearts were inspired and infected by his selfless spirit, and even if they did not find a suitable treasure, it seemed that they felt rich in their hearts by attending such an auction.

People are leaving. The flickering lights are fading out, and the official snatching may have just begun.

The next day, major newspapers rushed to report on the auction, almost all of them praised the kindness and greatness of Mr. Yang Zhicheng!

But no one noticed how a blood diamond could fetch a sky-high price.

However, those who really pay attention to this matter are secretly revisiting the issue of blood diamonds.

This includes Jingyi.

After the iceberg man photographed the blood diamond, she asked him more than once about his intention to take the blood diamond, but the iceberg man exerted his cold spirit to the extreme and never mentioned this matter.

However, no one would be stupid enough to pay a sky-high price for a useless diamond! It is impossible for a man like the Iceberg Man to spend such a large sum of money to buy a diamond to enjoy at home! Besides, where did he see that there were cells to appreciate art? I threatened to find a blood diamond before! It's obviously used for another purpose, but it's really hard to understand what it is.

There is another thing to discuss at the auction, she saw Hu Linglong at the end of the auction, but she remembered very well at that time that Hu Linglong did not appear at the venue, but why when she left, she saw her sitting in a high-end business car, although she was only in a hurry, but she was very sure that it was Hu Linglong, how to say, there is a blood relationship between them, she could not be wrong! Just, why did she appear there?

Is it also for the blood diamond? Then why is there only Lei Shaochen, the man in black, and the middle-aged man in the entire venue?

More and more questions have gathered in my mind, but there seems to be no answers, perhaps, there are no answers to these things...... Or maybe the answer lurks somewhere.

It seems that the iceberg man has not come to her for a long time, and her life has returned to peace. During this period, she went to Zhang Yimo's house to see Xiao Yan, and her expression did not look very good. Presumably her life in the Zhang family is not easy, the Zhang family is holding a wedding in Zhang, Zhang Yimo is still busy every day as if it is nothing to do with herself, Xiao Yan's heart must be very bitter.

It's just that she can't understand why Xiao Yan is so determined to stay by Zhang Yimo's side, she wants to ask several times to understand, but Xiao Yan is always hesitant about the situation related to this matter, and she is embarrassed to continue to ask.

Things will come to an end, won't they?
