Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Auction (Part II)
At 9 a.m. on May 28, an hour before the auction began, a wealthy Japanese man led by Huang Yutang walked into my hotel room.
"Hello, Mr. Dugu, I am Mitsui Kamataro from Mitsui Kaisha in Japan, I heard Huang Dong say that you have goods to sell, I wonder if there is a chance to cooperate with you?"
"Cooperation, of course, there is a chance! I wonder what Mr. Taro wants? ”
"Now that Japan's economy is sluggish, it is difficult to do business, only gold and diamonds are hard currencies that still have room for appreciation, and the local market demand in Japan is getting bigger and bigger, and Mr. Dugu needs to help vigorously."
"How much do you need?"
"Ten billion dollars in gold and diamonds, cash transactions."
"Okay, in a week, we will trade on the high seas in the Pacific Ocean east of Japan, and we will notify you when the time and place come."
After the successful negotiation of cooperation intentions, Mitsui Kamataro reported to the president of the headquarters with excitement on his face.
・・・・・・
At 10 o'clock in the morning, at the auction site, the media had already occupied a favorable position, and the TV stations of the global news live broadcast were also waiting for it, and the invited guests were eagerly looking forward to it・・・・・・
"Ladies and gentlemen, good morning, welcome to today's auction, all the items auctioned today come from China's ancient hermit family, by our country's famous authority more than ten experts appraisal, these rare treasures have a very high ornamental value and value preservation function. Okay, the auction will start now, and I would like to invite Mr. Lang Ning, the chief auctioneer of Ying Bao Tang. ”
"Hello everyone, the first auction is a group of ten jadeite, each weighing 60 carats, with a starting price of 300 million yuan."
"Three hundred and ten million."
"Three hundred and twenty million."
"Three hundred and fifty million."
Wealthy people from Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia and other regions first opened bids, driving the atmosphere of the scene.
"360 million for the first time, ・・・・・・ transaction!"
Next, the two groups of sapphire and emerald appeared, and they were successfully sold. At this time, a group of rubies weighing 100 carats each appeared, pushing the scene to a small **, because the price of rubies is close to diamonds, and some are even more expensive than diamonds, and this ruby weighing one carat is also very rare, and it was immediately auctioned by those rich people. In just half an hour, I already have tens of billions of dollars in my account.
"Now in front of everyone's eyes is a pearl necklace, which is composed of 20 natural saltwater pearls with a diameter of 20 mm and 19 natural pearls of 15 mm, with a starting price of 300 million yuan."
Such large natural pearls are very rare, and each one is the same size, and the ladies and princesses on the scene have been deeply attracted, and they all have wolf-like eyes.
"Five hundred million." "Six hundred million." "680 million."
Before people recovered from the auction just now, another pearl necklace with greater value appeared, and after a fierce battle, a South American predator successfully obtained it.
This was followed by a five-minute break during which two giant diamonds were on display for everyone to enjoy, followed by several sets of diamonds ranging from 10 to 50 carats to ease the tension.
"Now, I am showing the No. 2 finale auction item today, a rough diamond weighing 288.8 carats, with a starting price of 1 billion yuan."
"1.2 billion." "1.5 billion." "1.8 billion." ・・・・・・
"Two billion." Lilang Europe was finally obtained.
The auction was coming to an end, and everyone in the room was short of breath and nervous・・・・・・
"Ladies and gentlemen, this exciting time has arrived, and from today onwards, the world's largest diamond will appear before us, with a diamond gate weighing 5,108 carats."
Originally, this diamond was only displayed and not auctioned, but after a period of careful consideration, and I will have more and more diamonds in my hands in the future, it is just a beautiful stone for me, so let's let it reflect its value.
"Now I'm announcing that the starting price for diamonds is one dollar, start."
"Hahaha! I'll give two dollars. Someone at the scene had a humorous time, which caused everyone to laugh.
Soon, the price rushed to 10 billion, and then a certain wealthy man in the United States offered 20 billion, but it was immediately chased by 28 billion yuan from a Japanese consortium, and the Europeans chose to remain silent, and a certain Arab prince in the Middle East increased it to 35 billion, ・・・・・・
"Four tens of billions."
"Four and five billion."
"Five tens of billion!" A Japanese consortium eventually won.
The auction is over.
