Mixed in Australia to be a local tyrant

Chapter 364 Three Jewels (Subscribe)

This fat man named Duan Zhijun was a very smooth and talkative person. After chatting with Tang Ming for a while, Tang Ming felt like he was friends at first sight.

As for his claim that he was a small boss from the mainland, Tang Ming didn't quite believe it, but Tang Ming didn't want to inquire about what he did exactly and how big his business was.

Duan Zhijun asked, "Brother Tang, how do you know Qi?"

Tang Ming said, "Qi Zhixuan? I don't know him. He wants to take a stake in my company. I'm too lazy to talk to him."

Duan Zijun reminded: "Brother Tang, you can be careful with this surnamed Qi, he is as cruel as a jackal, and full of tricks, he likes to use some insidious methods, and as long as he finds a target, he will never let it go. Never stop until you bite off a piece of meat."

Tang Ming smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Duan, for your reminder. I will pay attention, but I have no choice but to fight when he finds me."

Duan Zhijun nodded and said, "Brother Tang, you are too open-minded. If I met him, I would die of sorrow. A person like him, relying on his backing, does things unscrupulously. He is only in his early thirties now. He has a net worth of tens of billions, but it was all robbed, I think he will have a tooth decay sooner or later."

Tang Ming could tell that Duan Zhijun seemed to have a strong backing behind him, and he was not too afraid of Qi Zhixuan.

But Tang Ming didn't want to ask. They just met by chance, so it's not suitable to talk too deeply.

Then they stopped talking about Qi Zhixuan, but talked about something else.

After a while, the auction officially started.

Sotheby's executives went up to say a few words, and the auctioneer came on stage and began to introduce the first lot.

This piece is a piece of porcelain from the Qing Dynasty. The price is not expensive, but many people like it. The base price was 15 Hong Kong dollars, and it was sold for 34 Hong Kong dollars, which doubled. It is a good start.

Then began to auction the second and third pieces...

Tang Ming held Cornelia's hand and watched the auction listlessly, but Cornelia watched it with gusto, which was in stark contrast to Tang Ming.

"...below is a natural seawater pearl and diamond necklace with 36 pearls, ranging in diameter from 12.50 to 9.25 mm. These pearls are round and plump, perfectly matched, noble and moving... The starting price is 740 million Hong Kong dollars. Interested parties are invited now. Start bidding."

Seeing this necklace, Tang Ming became more energetic. He turned his head and saw the love in Cornelia's eyes, and immediately raised the auction board to bid.

Cornelia glanced at Tang Ming and did not stop it. It seemed that she really liked this necklace.

After several rounds of bidding, Tang Ming defeated several competitors, and finally won the necklace at 980 million Hong Kong dollars.

In the following auction, Tang Ming spent another 590 million Hong Kong dollars to buy a natural Burmese ruby ​​and diamond bracelet designed by Cartier in [-] for Cornelia.

He didn't treat himself badly either, and bought himself an imperial green glass jadeite ring for 400 million Hong Kong dollars. This jadeite ring was the most expensive lot sold today.

At the same time, he also saw some pretty good jewelry, and wanted to photograph them and give them to Cornelia, but Cornelia stopped him, so he had no choice but to give up.

Duan Zhijun gave a thumbs up to the side and sighed: "Brother Tang, you are so generous. You bought the most expensive auction item today. I thought you were just here to join in the fun like me."

Tang Ming said: "I did come here to join in the fun, but when I saw something I liked, I took pictures of it."

Duan Zhijun shook his head with a smile, stopped talking about this topic, and instead asked, "Brother Tang, are you still coming to the auction tomorrow?"

Sotheby’s Hong Kong Spring Auctions were held for five days in total. Today is just a warm-up session. Good things will appear in the next few days. But Tang Ming wanted to go back to deal with the matter of pomegranate, so he said, “I won’t participate. I have some things to do. I'm going back to Australia tomorrow."

Duan Zhijun said regretfully: "It's a pity, I just met Brother Tang, and I want to invite Brother Tang to dinner!"

Tang Ming said: "There will be a chance next time."

Duan Zhijun took out a business card holder from his arms, took out a business card from it, handed it to Tang Ming with both hands, and said, "Brother Tang, here is my personal phone number. If you have a chance to go to the capital, you must call me and let me know." Big brother treats you well."

Tang Ming also took the business card with both hands, but said with some embarrassment: "Brother Duan, I don't have a business card."

"It's fine if you don't have a business card. Brother Tang seems to be a very leisurely person. You don't need to socialize every day. It's normal not to carry a business card. Unlike me, you run around with a business card every day." Duan Zhijun waved his hand, not at all. don't care.

Tang Ming felt very sorry, and said, "How about this, Brother Duan, I'll tell you the phone number, and you will record it in the phone."

Duan Zhijun smiled and said, "This method is good."

As he spoke, he took out his mobile phone, Tang Ming said the number, and he wrote it down.

At this time, today's auction was also over, Tang Ming told Duan Zhijun to go to the back to pick up the things he just photographed.

He took a total of three pieces of jewelry, with a total value of 970 million Hong Kong dollars, plus a 12.00% commission, a total of 570 million Hong Kong dollars, converted into Australian dollars, 920 million.

After paying the payment, they checked the three pieces of jewelry and confirmed that there was no problem. Tang Ming and Cornelia came to the parking lot and drove back to the Four Seasons Hotel.

When they came to Tang Ming's room, Cornelia couldn't wait to open the box, took out the pearl necklace and ruby ​​bracelet, and said to Tang Ming, "Honey, help me put the pearl necklace on."

Tang Ming took the pearl necklace in her hand, walked around behind her, looked at her slender and white neck like a swan, and was stunned.

Cornelia urged: "Honey, I'm in a daze, help me bring it."

"Right now, don't worry." Tang Ming came back to his senses and gently led her up.

Cornelia faced the mirror, stretched out her slender fingers to caress the pearl necklace around her neck, and asked, "Honey, do I look good with this necklace?"

Tang Ming nodded quickly and exclaimed: "It's so beautiful, this necklace is specially made for you!"

Tang Ming did not lie, but the necklace Cornelia wore was indeed very beautiful, and it added a noble and elegant temperament.

But looking at Cornelia's white T-shirt and blue jeans, she felt that it didn't match well, so she said, "Honey, maybe you will be more beautiful if you put on an evening dress and wear this necklace."

Cornelia said regretfully: "I think so too, it seems that I can only take it with me when I attend the banquet."

After speaking, she took off the pearl necklace, put it in the box, put on a ruby ​​bracelet, and walked around in front of Tang Ming.

Tang Ming said: "This bracelet is also very suitable for you, and it is also very suitable for everyday wear."

"Yeah." Cornelia nodded.
