My Side Job is a Trader

The auction items afterwards were all antiques such as calligraphy and painting, and those who participated in the auction were older middle-aged people.

Seeing that the auction was about to end, the last piece of auction item was solemnly held up by a courtesy lady in a dress.

When the auctioneer opened the box, everyone felt a bright light, especially all the women present.

"Wow, what a beautiful sapphire!"

The auctioneer asked everyone to be quiet, and then introduced to everyone: "Everyone, this'Heart of the Sea' is the last item to be auctioned today. I believe some of you here should have heard of this item."

"You mean, this is the legendary'Heart of the Sea'?"

Some people who didn't know the situation started whispering to inquire about the relevant information of the heart of the sea.

Zhang Xin hadn't paid attention to jewelry or the like, so he didn't know that this item would have such a reputation.

Li Xueer's eyes have been staring at the Heart of the Ocean. Zhang Xin saw her eyes shining, and she wouldn't know how much she loves the Heart of the Ocean.

"We'll take it and take it home later. You can watch it as long as you want."

Li Xueer pointed around and whispered: "I think the competition should be very fierce. Look at those women, they won't give up easily."

"It's okay, where can a piece of jewelry cost you? Even if it is hundreds of millions, I will get it for you. It's nothing more than paying more money. We will earn more money in the future."

In the next second, the auctioneer found that at least half of the people did not know the origin of the Heart of the Sea. In order to be able to auction a higher price, he took the initiative to introduce: "The Heart of the Sea is the crown on the head of Queen Victoria I of the Kingdom of Great Britain. According to historical records, there are five diamonds of different colors in the crown of Victoria I, each of which is a unique treasure in the world.

Later, as the dynasty was overthrown, the whereabouts of the crown were also unknown. More than two hundred years later, in the middle of the seventeenth century, one of the blue diamonds appeared in the home of a jeweler in Gaul. Later, the jeweler invited the jeweler to Gaul. The finest jewelry craftsman inlaid this blue diamond on a necklace and named it "Heart of the Sea", and then dedicated it to King Henry II of Gaul at that time.

Later, a series of coups took place in Gaul, and the heart of the sea disappeared with the chaos of the war.

When he reappeared, it was the home of Wu Longbiao, a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong 30 years ago. Now, for some reason, Mr. Wu needs a lot of funds to run the business, so he entrusted our auction house to auction. "

As soon as the voice fell, someone questioned: "How do you know that this piece is the legendary Heart of the Sea? You know, although the sapphire is also valuable, its value is much lower than that of the Heart of the Sea. ."

The auctioneer patiently explained: "This gentleman makes sense, but please don’t forget that the legendary heart of the sea is a blue diamond, which is also a diamond in essence. As we all know, the hardness of a diamond is much greater than that of various diamonds. We’ve tested this so-called gemstone, and this heart of the sea is indeed a diamond."

"Then how are you sure that this is the Heart of the Sea, and not another blue diamond?"

The auctioneer smiled confidently and said: "This gentleman is joking. So far, although there are still blue diamonds, but the size is not so large, we have checked a lot of information and found that the blue The size of the diamond does match the rumored Heart of the Sea, so it is undoubtedly authentic."

In the end, in order to increase the trust of everyone, the auctioneer specially added: "I can use the reputation of our Sosby auction house as a guarantee."

When everyone heard the auctioneer say this, they naturally believed a lot.

The auctioneer glanced at the bottom and saw that no one raised any more doubts, so he said: "If you have no questions, then we will officially start, Heart of the Sea, the reserve price is 10 million, and each increase must not be less than 100,000. Now Start!"

After speaking, he dropped the small hammer and officially started the auction.

Everyone underneath fell into a moment of calm, waiting for others to bid.

Zhang Xin looked around before ignoring other people's thoughts. According to his thoughts, since he wanted this heart of the ocean, he could just use the word "reckless".

So Zhang Xin raised the number plate in his hand and shouted: "Twenty million!"

Everyone followed the voice and looked at Zhang Xin, who was holding the child in one hand and the number plate in the other. They did not expect this young man in casual home clothes to act so generously and directly double the price.

However, Heart of the Sea was obviously much higher than this price, and soon someone shouted: "Twenty-one million!"

"21.5 million!"

The sound of bidding keeps coming one after another, and the price is also rising.

Zhang Xin was obviously unwilling to squeeze the toothpaste bit by bit, so he raised the sign again and shouted: "Forty million!"

At this moment, everyone quieted down. It is true that Zhang Xin increased the price a bit more this time, but the price is still not the value of the heart of the ocean, and it is even quite different.

However, the price of more than 40 million yuan has caused many competitors with average strength to withdraw from the bidding.

At this time, only four or five players are still bidding on the field.

With the price slowly approaching the 50 million mark, these companies are still slowly bidding at this time.

The onlookers were speculating whether Zhang Xin would bid again.

Sure enough, Zhang Xin didn't let everyone down, and directly raised the sign and shouted: "Sixty million!"

The other four or five companies stopped for a while, and then two withdrew from the bidding.

However, even if it has already reached 60 million ~www.readwn.com~, the remaining three companies are still increasing their prices by one hundred thousand one hundred thousand.

In 2008, Great Britain also auctioned a 144-carat diamond. It was the largest diamond ever mined by mankind. It was then cut and adjusted by famous artists and polished into a 64-carat sphere. , The outside was made of platinum into a hollow container to hold diamonds. The price at that time was 80 million yuan.

Although this heart of the sea is much smaller in size, because it is a natural blue diamond, according to testing, although the diamond can be artificially synthesized at present, the blue component of the diamond is still unclear, so the heart of the sea is To a certain extent, it is not less valuable than that diamond.

Zhang Xin didn't want to slowly increase the price little by little. It was too boring, so he directly raised the price to 70 million.

Sure enough, two more bidders were eliminated.

Now there is only one person left to compete with Zhang Xin.

That person once again increased the price by 100,000, and Zhang Xin didn't even look at him, and directly added 5 million.

Finally, the last competitor smiled bitterly and turned to Zhang Xin and made a please gesture.

The auctioneer originally thought that it would be about 50 million for Heart of the Seas, but he didn't expect it to be more than half. Of course he was very happy.

"75 million at a time!"

"75 million twice!"

"Are there any higher prices?"

"75 million three times!"

"Deal! Congratulations to this gentleman for winning the Heart of the Sea!"

When the hammer fell, everyone applauded and congratulated Zhang Xin.

Everyone knows this generous young man, although Zhang Xin's clothes are very casual, but now everyone thinks this is low-key.
