BXBX NOVEL Chapter 779 - Heart of the Blue Sea
Sapphire was not considered rare, but to be placed in the same auction as Qing dynasty blue and white porcelain and Han dynasty ancient instrument, the sapphire auctioned must have a certain background.
“This is a sapphire that weighs up to 100 carats. Its designer named it the heart of the blue sea. Next, let’s invite our staff to let us see the true beauty of the heart of the blue sea.”
The lights in the venue quickly dimmed, leaving only a tiny ray of light on the podium.
A beautiful woman held a plate in her hand and slowly walked to the middle of the venue.
The plate was covered with a red cloth, and as the red cloth was uncovered, the glass box inside was revealed.
The beautiful woman carefully placed the glass box on the table on the stage, and once again carefully uncovered the glass lid on it. The true appearance of the heart of the blue sea appeared in front of everyone.
The only ray of light at the scene completely shone on the body of the heart of the blue sea.
The Heart of the Blue Sea was a piece of sapphire that had been cut into the shape of a heart by modern technology. The entire sapphire was especially large, and it was surrounded by a ring of extremely dazzling broken diamonds.
The cutting master’s technique was also particularly good, allowing the entire sapphire to refract the light in the most perfect state.
After a short pause, the lights at the scene were turned on again. The emcee walked onto the stage again. The woman on the stage carefully put the glass cover on the heart of the blue sea and left the stage.
“I believe that everyone was deeply shocked by the beauty of the Heart of the Blue Sea just now. I wonder if everyone here is interested? Please don’t be anxious, it’s time for our auction!”
Just as the host finished speaking, there were indeed some people who could not hold back and wanted to raise the auction cards in their hands.
“The starting price for our heart of the blue sea is 150,000 yuan. Now, please increase the bid price.”
In fact, the price of this auction should have risen gradually. However, the auction for the ancient instrument from the Han dynasty almost failed, so after the host left the stage, he discussed with the backstage staff to lower the Heart of the Blue Sea’s price.
If the price was lowered, the number of people bidding might increase, and in the end, it would have a positive effect. Moreover, they had enough trust in their heart of the blue sea. They believed that the bosses present could not resist the temptation of such gorgeous jewelry.
Yun Xi also thought that the Heart of the Blue Sea was particularly beautiful, and joined in the bidding with everyone else.
The price of the Heart of the Blue Sea gradually rose, from the initial 150,000 to 600,000 yuan.
Even though the price had already reached 600,000 yuan, there were still many bosses who were bidding up.
“One million yuan!”
Suddenly, a particularly loud voice appeared in the crowd.
One of the bosses directly raised the price of the Heart of the Blue Sea to one million yuan. The unexpected increase in price caused everyone present to stop their actions of raising their auction cards.
At the same time, the gazes of everyone present were also fixed on this shop owner. Yun Xi also turned around curiously, only to see an 80% similar face beside this shop owner.
It was actually Yun Lian?!
How did she appear here?! Why was there such a wealthy person beside her?!
The surrounding bosses who could no longer afford to bid for the heart of the blue sea fawned over the boss.
“It’s nothing! The main thing is that my little wife likes this necklace, so I’ll buy it and give it to her. It’s also worth it to win a smile from a beauty!”
When did Yun Lian become the little wife of this local boss?!
This boss’s hair was already bald, and he looked quite old! How did Yun Lian get together with this boss? A series of questions arose in Yun Xi’s mind.
“Is there any other boss willing to raise the price?”
The price of one million was also very satisfactory to the emcee. The scene once again recalled his inquiring voice.
“1,000,000 going once!”
“2,000,000!” Yun Xi slowly raised the auction card in her hand.
Yun Xi would never let Yun Lian get what she wanted so easily.
