Chapter 650
Chapter 650
Meng Haisheng had seen a lot of diamonds when he was in Beijing before, but when he came to this auction, Meng Haisheng found that the big guys in Hong Kong in the 1990s had already played so high-end.
Diamonds the size of pigeon eggs were auctioned at a time of more than a dozen.
And there were many colors.
When Meng Haisheng was flipping through the album, he thought his eyes were blurry. When did diamonds become so worthless?
Top diamonds are still in high demand. Any one of them is worth tens of millions.
Meng Haisheng, who has a wife and a daughter at home, took a quick look and found that the pink pear-shaped diamond could be made into a necklace for Momo, which was the most suitable.
As for Yanyan and Zizi, Meng Haisheng chose two sky blue diamonds for them, each of which was about 5 carats.
When choosing a diamond for Lin Mucheng, Meng Haisheng almost didn't consider it and fell in love with a 1 carat blood diamond at first sight.
There are many colored diamonds of other colors circulating on the market, but blood diamonds are extremely rare.
In the late 1980s, a two-carat blood diamond was sold at a sky-high price of 42 million US dollars.
The starting price of this one-carat blood diamond is 20 million Hong Kong dollars. To be honest, Meng Haisheng has no idea how much he will get in the end.
But Meng Haisheng must get such a beautiful diamond. He has no other hobbies now, and he likes to buy beautiful jewelry for his wife.
A one-carat blood diamond is still very beautiful when it is inlaid into a ring and worn on the hand.
This year is the 10th anniversary of their marriage. He has always wanted to give Lin Mucheng a wedding gift. The timing of this diamond is just right.
At 10 o'clock in the evening, the auction officially began. Meng Haisheng and his party, led by the waiter, came to the auction venue on the second floor below.
The auction venue here is different from the outside. The entire venue is like the Roman Colosseum.
All the VIP seats are layered, and everyone has their own small luxury box. The box is very spacious and has beautiful floor-to-ceiling windows, which can see the display stand in the middle.
After Meng Haisheng came in, he finally understood why the auction venue was on the negative 2nd floor. With such high seats, if the floor was too low, the luxury box inside would not be a luxury box, but a small turtle shell.
As the group walked to their own box, Meng Haisheng paid a little attention to the people around him.
Some people were alone, while some were men and women in groups of three or five, or several ladies were traveling together.
Coincidentally, Xiaohui, who had just talked to Tengze, walked into the box near them with two young girls without masks. There was already a muscular man with tattoos in the box.
"Haisheng, do you want to ask a few girls to have a drink with you?"
Ajie asked with a smile when he saw Meng Haisheng looking at Xiaohui.
"Forget it, I'm afraid that my mind will not be clear after drinking. If I miss something I like, I will cry."
Meng Haisheng retracted his gaze and walked into the box where they were.
Just now, Teng Ze was walking in front and didn't see Xiao Hui enter other people's private rooms. He thought it was better to do so, so as not to ruin Teng Ze's good mood.
His love had just sprouted, but it was strangled. If he knew, he would be very unhappy.
Teng Ze, who entered the private room, was stunned by everything in front of him.
There was a wall in the private room, full of various kinds of cigarettes and alcohol.
There were super big brands he knew, and some he didn't know.
Even on the shelf, he saw some strange tools, as well as some cigarette papers and tobacco boxes.
Teng Ze was a little curious. How could there be these things in such a luxurious private room? Aren't these the favorite hand-rolled cigarettes of the old men in the countryside?
Curious baby Teng Ze was about to take it to see how high-end the tobacco of hand-rolled cigarettes was.
Before he stretched out his hand, he was stopped by Meng Haisheng behind him.
"Tengze, don't touch those messy things."
"Ah? Haisheng, do you know what this is for?"
"Yeah."
Meng Haisheng casually took a bottle of alcoholic drink from the shelf and handed it to Tengze.
"Young people should drink less."
Meng Haisheng took another bottle and threw it to Ajie.
Ajie reached out to catch it and laughed.
"Haisheng, you made me think that we were children who ran away without telling our parents."
Ajie opened the can and drank a sip, and the smile on his face deepened.
"Don't you want to take pictures today?"
"If you want to drink, we can go to Lan Kwai Fong."
"I've picked up a pair of vases and will give them to my dad as a birthday present."
Meng Haisheng sat on the sofa. On the wall opposite the wine rack was a huge TV wall, and the picture on it happened to be a display stand.
At this time on the display stand,A group of girls dressed in cool clothes were singing and dancing to liven up the atmosphere.
It was estimated that some people had not come in yet, and the auction would have to wait for a while before it could start.
The three of them were chatting, and the dancing girl on TV finally went down, and a host in a sequined evening dress came up.
After a simple opening speech, the auction finally started.
Almost all of the antiques, calligraphy and paintings were in the front.
At first, Meng Haisheng thought that everyone came here to have fun today, but he didn't expect that the auction of antiques, calligraphy and paintings was quite good, and the prices were not low.
"The following is the first diamond today, a pink diamond from South Africa."
"This pink diamond is the largest one among the pink diamonds auctioned today, and it is pear-shaped."
The host introduced the cut and clarity of the pink diamond.
On the TV screen, a close-up of the pink diamond was given.
Meng Haisheng liked it more and more. Such a beautiful pink diamond, set as a pendant, his Momo would definitely like it.
"11 million."
The starting price is 10 million, and the bid increases by at least 100,000 each time.
As a result, the first person's bid increased by 1 million, which shows that this pink diamond will be fought over by many people today.
Meng Haisheng was not in a hurry. After the price was called up to 15 million, it was finally not so popular.
"15.5 million."
Meng Haisheng finally pressed the bidding button in his hand.
"Mr. No. 6, the bid is 15.5 million. Is there anyone who wants to bid?"
The host on the display stand looked at Meng Haisheng with a smile.
Meng Haisheng was wearing a decent suit, with his hands in his pockets, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass, and the host was starry-eyed.
She hadn't seen such a handsome and rich man for a long time. His height was at least 185 cm.
The straight long legs made her drool.
"16 million."
A cold mechanical voice sounded.
The host looked at a box not far from Meng Haisheng.
He didn't know who was in the box. He didn't use his own voice, but a mechanical voice.
The voice sounded strange, but it was vaguely a man's voice.
