Chapter 816 "Hope" Blue Diamond Brings Disaster!
"Congratulations, Zhihong Group has easily acquired..."

As soon as Chen Hong left, Zhutian Zhenyi came over, greeted Chen Tang, glanced at Meng Shaotao and the others who were following behind, and finally landed on Nangong Aoyue, with a half-smile.

"I'm his future wife!" Nangong Aoyue raised her chin, feeling a little provocative, "Just call me Nangong Aoyue!"

"Cough cough..."

Chen Tang coughed twice in embarrassment, and raised his finger to Makoto Takeda, "Miss Taketa is the quasi-imperial concubine of the high-ranking person in Dongying. Besides, she is also Alice's younger sister."

When Alice was mentioned, Takeda Zhenyi's expression darkened immediately, Chen Tang quickly changed the subject, and introduced Meng Shaotao and Sima Qing by the way.

After chatting for a few words, Takeda Mayi brought up the business, and glanced at a showcase not far away, "Princess Shunzi is in front of that showcase, and she has been standing there for a long time, she seems very interested in the exhibits in the showcase... ..."

Chen Tang turned his head and looked. Among the guests standing in front of the showcase, there was the most beautiful and eye-catching figure. Her slender figure was set off extremely delicately in a moon-white dress, and her facial features were also perfect. Nangong Aoyue and Zhutian Zhenyi stood shoulder to shoulder.

Although he had never met her before, Chen Tang had seen her on TV. This person was the youngest daughter of the superior, Princess Shunzi.

Several people walked over casually, and after approaching, the jewelry in the showcase also came into view.

On the black velvet cloth, a huge blue diamond can be seen impressively. It is perfectly cut and shines brightly, as if it can catch people's eyes, and once you see it, you can't move it away.

Seeing this diamond, Chen Tang was obviously taken aback, and subconsciously frowned.

At this time, Princess Shunzi, who had been standing in front of the showcase for a long time, finally nodded with a smile, "I want this blue diamond, and I hope Zhihong Group can give it away. I want to use it as a pendant to create the most beautiful necklace. "

These words were addressed to the staff next to the showcase. Princess Shunzi was accompanied by a department executive from the Zhihong Group. Of course, there were also two servants brought by the princess.

"This Hope Sapphire is one of the most famous diamonds in the world—unfortunately, although it is beautiful, it has a frightening name, because it is also called 'the messenger of disaster'."

Before the accompanying executives could answer, Chen Tang had already walked over. The words in his mouth attracted everyone's attention, and more than a dozen eyes from all around gathered, including Princess Shunzi.

Chen Tang nodded to the princess with a smile, and continued to talk, telling the story of Hope Lanbao...

"Five hundred years ago, an old man got a huge raw blue diamond from an abandoned mine in India. After being processed, there are still more than [-] carats."

"After the old man passed away, several of his sons started a catastrophic journey for the diamond. They fought for the diamond, but they all died. The diamond was inlaid on the forehead of the statue by the patriarch."

"Not long after, a missionary in France killed two Brahmins who were guarding the temple, took the diamond away, and returned to his hometown."

"But he was soon cut off his throat on a thunderstorm night, and decades later, the diamond was acquired by a jeweler in Paris, who then sold it to Louis XIV, and himself was killed by a Killed by wild dogs, Louis XIV died shortly thereafter."

"Before that, he gave the diamond to Princess Beili, and the princess ended up being beaten to death by a group of common people..."

"After the princess died, the diamond became the treasure of the French royal family, and since then it has its name—Fran Sapphire! It is also called the Hope Sapphire!"

"Its next owner was Louis XVI of France, but shortly after getting the diamond, Louis XVI was sent to the guillotine together with Queen Mary."

"A guard took the opportunity to steal the Hope Sapphire. When people found him, he had committed suicide due to insanity."

The ups and downs of this story were beyond everyone's expectations. Everyone became interested and listened carefully. From time to time, some people gasped or let out a soft cry.

Slowly, more people gathered, Chen Tang looked at the blue diamonds in the showcase, and continued to tell the story...

"After some twists and turns, the diamond fell into the hands of Ivan, the prince of the country of Ross. He was a passionate man and gave the diamond to a prostitute, but soon after, he stabbed the prostitute to death with his sword while drunk. He himself died an untimely death."

"From then on, I hope Lan Bao has another name, and that is the later 'Messenger of Disaster'."

"In order to solve the ominousness of this giant diamond, Queen Ekaterina of the State of Ross sent it to the Netherlands, and asked a world-class diamond polisher to polish it again."

"It was at that time that it was cut into what it is now, from more than [-] carats at the beginning to [-] carats now."

"It didn't help, however, the curse and ominousness that accompanied this diamond continued..."

"After the diamond was polished, the polisher's son took the opportunity to steal it, and the diamond maker who couldn't make a deal committed suicide by taking poison in despair."

"Many years later, Hope Lambo appeared again, and since then, it has moved to England, Ross, and Turkey, and all kinds of ominous things have been happening all the time."

"In the end, it was bought from the auction house for 1947 million US dollars in [-], and it disappeared without a trace. I didn't expect it to appear here again today..."

After finishing the last sentence, Chen Tang's eyes shifted and fell on Princess Shunzi again, shaking his head slightly, "Your Highness, although this blue diamond is perfect, it is not a good thing. I hope you will consider it carefully. It's best not to think about it!"

It wasn't until this moment that the crowd understood Chen Tang's purpose for telling this story, and they whispered in twos and threes with strange expressions on their faces.

Princess Shunzi was also attracted by the twists and turns of the story at first, and she looked curious, but now when she heard that Chen Tang wanted to give up the diamond, her face immediately sank, "So you said so much, the purpose is to Scaring me...with ulterior motives and sensationalism, it's really too bad!!"

"Hahaha……"

"Princess Shunzi is so right. Some people are just trying to flatter the public. They think they have good intentions, but in fact they are trying to please them. It's a pity that this flattery is wrong..."

Laughing loudly, Chen Hong came with two confidantes, glanced at Chen Tang contemptuously, walked up to Princess Shunzi, nodded with a smile, "Your Highness, don't worry, it's just rumors in the market, you can't Seriously! Since Her Royal Highness likes Hope Lanbao, our Zhihong Group decided to... give it away for free!!"
