Big Islander 2

Chapter 43 Auction

Chapter 43 Auction
Smith led several security guards and rushed out aggressively.After walking through the crowd for a while, he came to an elegant middle-aged man.Smith waved his hand, and the security guard immediately put the man's arm in his arms.

"Sir, we've already given you a chance!" Smith seemed complacent. Being able to arrest a suspect in front of so many people was a very revealing thing.In particular, there are people from other museums around the world among them. I believe this will be very beneficial to his reputation. Perhaps after joining Taohua Island, his business will become more and more prosperous.Of course, the fees must be getting higher and higher.

The people around automatically took a few steps back, leaving a small circle in the middle.The middle-aged suspect was dressed casually, with a laid-back look, his eyes swept across Smith's face, and he even sarcastically said, "Sir, framing people is not a good thing."

However, Smith identified him and searched him directly, but when he searched every corner of the man's clothes, he found nothing.Now Smith is sweating a little: Maybe he will be sued in court and lose a lot of money.These are not too important, the key is shame, the signboard is completely smashed, and there will be no business in the future!
And the suspect was still smiling: "Can I call my lawyer now?"

"Sir, the missing item is a 15-carat diamond, number 324." A staff member walked quickly and reported to Smith in a low voice.

That's it—Smith decided in his heart: "You'd better think about how to ask a lawyer to defend you, lock him up for a few hours, and let him pull the diamond out. Oh, God, this diamond will definitely not be sold—"

Seeing the compassionate look on Smith's old face, the people around laughed lowly.If that is the case, even if it is a free gift, no woman would be willing to wear such a diamond that has gone through the cycle of five grains, right?

"You have no right to restrict my personal freedom!" The middle-aged man seemed to be a little anxious, and his expression was not as calm as before.

And at this time, the pheasant flew over: "Quack quack, why wait so long, just cut him open with a knife, and take out the diamond!"

It was cruel enough—people around felt a chill, but then they all burst out laughing, because the flower parrot was kicked on the ass by Tang Datou: "Pheasant, you pay for your life—come and open your mouth, Let me check--"

Tang Jide reached out and pinched the man's jaw, and then a rattan more than one meter long appeared in his hand, which was directly inserted into the man's throat.

This one is even more barbaric - everyone around felt that their throats seemed to be stirred, and they all had a feeling of vomiting.

But to their surprise, the cane was pulled out quickly, and there was a shiny thing wrapped around its front end.Tang Jide wiped it with a paper towel, and held it in his hand. It was a brilliant diamond. Looking at the label attached below, he could still see the number 324.

Papapa—a rhythmic applause sounded around, such a miraculous performance was really an eye-opener.

"If you want to swallow our diamonds, you don't have the ability to push him down!" Smith shouted, full of confidence. Although he can also retrieve the diamonds with his method, the effect is a thousand times worse. The owner of the big head island is getting more and more admired.

The suspect finally had nothing to say. Although he was not a jewel thief, he was also a solo expert in the industry. He wanted to make a small fortune by taking advantage of the chaos, but he was caught inexplicably.Until now, he still doesn't know how he was discovered.

Perhaps only Xiao Xiami knew best, because after the suspect was taken away, a bat showed its furry little head from under his skirt.

Everything went smoothly beyond imagination, and He Tiantian was also very happy in her heart. She clapped her hands and said, "It was just a small episode just now, and it can be regarded as a test of the security measures of our Treasure Hall. Next, interested guests can go to the second floor, and we will immediately There is going to be an ocean treasure auction. By the way, it includes the diamond just now, and now its name is Huanzhugege."

In a burst of good-natured laughter, people followed He Tiantian up to the second floor.Unexpectedly, the number of supporters greatly exceeded expectations. The small hall that can accommodate 300 to [-] people was full of seats, and there were still many standing customers behind, and there were still many people outside the door who did not squeeze in.

Everyone who comes is a guest, so of course we can’t treat the same guest as the same guest. Tang Jide was also rubbing his hands anxiously outside: If I had known this, I would have built a bigger building.

This situation was also beyond He Tiantian's expectation, and there was a fine layer of sweat on the tip of her nose. No one expected that so many people would come to support her.

Looking at the decorative plants such as spider plants hanging down in the hall, Tang Jide suddenly had an idea.Quietly, those hanging green branches grew rapidly, and formed into a handful of green wicker chairs, swinging in the air, slowly drooping.

Xiao Xiami felt the fluctuation of the aura, looked up, and two big dimples appeared on his small face, then he climbed directly onto Uncle Big Tou's shoulders, jumped onto a wicker chair, and swung around, just like swinging on a swing of.

"I didn't expect this kind of equipment to exist. This is the most romantic auction house I've ever seen!" A woman exclaimed excitedly, and climbed onto a wicker chair by her husband's shoulders.It's just that his husband only frowned underneath: Be careful, the panties under the skirt are all exposed——

After a while of fuss, at least they settled down.There was a very strange scene in the auction hall. The men were sitting upright underneath, but they glanced up from time to time; while above their heads, there were all women, all smiling.Some of the older ones also seem to have returned to their youth, with their eyes squinted and their faces full of happy memories.

Under the auspices of He Tiantian, the auctioneer appeared.The initial auction items were all small items, small pieces of porcelain, some hawksbill sea willow products, as well as some pearl and crystal products, which were not very valuable, mainly to attract most people to participate.

Every now and then, more expensive items will appear on the stage.For example, pigeon blood red rubies, and relatively high-grade diamonds and so on.

The first climax of the auction came about half an hour later.I saw He Tiantian grind a little agarwood, and then put it on the incense burner. In an instant, the whole auction hall was enveloped by the aroma, the aroma was thick but not strong, and there was tranquility in the elegance.The people who were blushing all of a sudden felt as if their hearts had been blown by a gust of breeze, and suddenly became extremely clear and calm.

"Good thing, this is the real old agarwood. If you sleep in this fragrance every night, you can become a centenarian!" An old man with white beard and hair closed his eyes and said to himself. Completely immerse yourself in the aroma.

A young man next to him coughed and complained secretly: Grandpa, if you fall to the bottom like this, I'm afraid you will attract a large number of competitors.

There are many wealthy people present, for whom money is basically a number symbol, and there are some things that money cannot buy, such as life.Especially after hearing the remarks of Mr. Chung, a well-known old birthday star on Hong Kong Island, everyone naturally became concerned, so they scrambled to bid.

The old birthday star who was immersed in the fragrance was also woken up, and when he saw the meter bouncing around, he also panicked: "Don't grab it, it's mine!"

But at this time, no one cared about respecting the elders, they all pretended not to hear.The old birthday star was so angry that he kept holding the crutch in his hand: "People's hearts are not old—I'll offer 320 million——"

Looking at the rising amount, Tang Jide felt very happy: It seems that the Ocean Treasure Museum has a head start, and with the income from tickets in the future, it will be able to pay back in a few years.Besides, there must be a place to sell those things salvaged from the sea.

Seeing a large group of Chinese scrambling for an unremarkable stone-like thing, those foreigners were a little confused. In their eyes, gold and diamonds are the hard goods.Some people even asked the Chinese people around them, and it caused a burst of contempt: You foreigners who have not faded, how do you understand the profoundness of Chinese culture.

Some foreigners also said that a blond woman said in blunt Mandarin: "Prodigal son - a few million smells, so stupid -"

The old birthday star really wanted to popularize knowledge to these foreigners, but this time he was stopped by his grandson in time: "Grandpa, we can no longer establish competitors!"

In the end, this piece of old agarwood was still taken by the old birthday star, but the price was a bit painful for his grandson.

The auction lasted until noon, when it came to an end temporarily, and the second half of the auction will continue in the afternoon.This place belongs to the remote area of ​​Hong Kong Island, and it is inconvenient to go back and forth, so Tang Jade has already called a dozen dining cars and served a simple lunch on the grass outside.

Because there were too many people, he couldn't cook by himself, so he simply distributed a few packets of seasonings to each dining car and asked them to make a fuss on their own.

At first, the staff of the dining car was a little dismissive. Originally, there was no packaging, no manufacturer and no date of manufacture, and it was a three-nothing product.However, after someone tried it out, they found that the effect was surprisingly good. When the barbecue material was sprinkled on the grilled steak, the aroma immediately attracted a large group of well-dressed successful people.Normally, people wouldn't even bother to come to the dining car to eat.

Once used, whether it is soup or cold sauce, or seasoning for cooking, all of them can greatly enhance the color of food.Some sensitive car owners kept some privately, and planned to study them slowly after returning home, but unfortunately they were destined to be disappointed.

And the customers who just wanted to fill their stomachs also increased their appetites, and they wondered: It seems that they have never tasted such delicious food in the most high-end hotels on Hong Kong Island?
After the lunch break, the auction continued. A small scrap cut from the "King's Wrath" with only five carats became the first lot, and its marked reserve price was actually 500 million Hong Kong dollars.

Even Tang Jide smacked his lips after seeing it: Who set the price? Are you poor and crazy?

 Hehe, it's another week, please support us!
