Chapter 249: I said how to be so familiar

Everyone looked at Qin Feng with interest. This Huo Gongzi is openly slapping his face.

How will Qin Feng respond to this 100 million gift!

100 million, worth 100 million!

"Thank you, sir, I already have a necklace, I don't need it anymore!" Shen Manli responded politely, "I already have the most precious necklace in this world, and I don't need any other necklaces anymore." ”

Everyone frowned. Especially this Huo Gongzi, he was even more annoyed.

This is not just a rejection of him, this is clearly a slap in the face. Today, Shen Manli is wearing a princess dress of a fan, this neck is bare, and there is nothing.

You say you have the most precious necklace in the world, but that's not!

"Qixi Fairy, where is this chain?" Huo Gongzi twitched his cheeks, if other women dared to do this to him, he would have slapped him a long time ago.

It's just that the other party is a Tanabata fairy, a Tanabata fairy who spent 7.6 billion to make his debut. Such a person, no one knows the hole cards, so he is obviously very angry at the moment, but he also maintains a reluctant demeanor.

At this time, Qin Feng smiled.

"Auctioneer, I think you can auction off the next item. That's the one I want!" Qin Feng commanded.

The auctioneer was stunned.

There is no connection between them and Qin Feng, and there is no agreement. But if you can be an auctioneer, you naturally have two brushes, and they are all human spirits.

At this time, this is going to cause real fire, where is the anger sprinkled? Naturally, it is on the auction floor.

But what is the auction?

"The next item is also a necklace, this necklace has a great origin!" The auctioneer was in a hurry, remembering that there was another necklace in the warehouse, and hurriedly glanced at it and ordered someone to pick it up, and at the same time, introduced.

Everyone sat down.

"This necklace was first obtained by the French explorer and jeweler Tavimir in southwestern India, a huge gemstone diamond, weighing 112.5 carats, which has an extremely rare deep blue color. Tavermier brought the jewel back to France and dedicated it to King Louis XIV of France. Because of this gem, Tavermir was given an official position and a large fortune. Unfortunately, his son lost almost all of his wealth, and Tavimir had to travel to India again to support his family, but was unfortunately killed by wild dogs. The auctioneer said.

Everyone frowned. For these super-rich businessmen, there is nothing more taboo for them than bad luck. Such a gem seems to be ominous.

The auctioneer, however, was in high spirits and continued to introduce the unknown origin of the gems.

After that, Louis XIV, who obtained the gem, polished the blue gem into a diamond weighing 69.03 carats. Unfortunately, Louis XIV wore it only once, and soon died of smallpox. He succeeded King Louis XV of France and became the new owner of the diamonds. He swore not to wear the big dark blue diamond, but he lent it to his mistress. As a result, Louis XV's mistress was beheaded during the French Revolution. The auctioneer sighed.

The faces of many wealthy businessmen turned dark. If you say that, who would dare to buy it!

The large blue diamond was then passed on to King Louis XVI of France, who often wore it to his queen, and the result was that both Louis XVI and his wife were guillotined. Hence the name of the gem "Diamond of Bad Luck!" laughs the auctioneer.

At this moment, the atmosphere of the audience is not good. Are you here to auction off gems, or are you here to tell ghost stories? Is there such a thing as you advertise? Who wants this kind of gem?

But the auctioneer is still not over.

Later, Queen Louis XVI's girlfriend, Princess Lamberna, became the owner of the blue diamond. "After that, everyone knew that the Revolution broke out in France, and that Princess Lamberna was beheaded during the Revolution." ”

Creepy! Everybody's creepy.

"Fairy, it seems that your boyfriend is very distracted. I want to give you a gemstone necklace made from the diamond of bad luck. Huo Gongzi generally sneered.

Qin Feng was also slightly embarrassed in his heart. This, the auctioneer is not reliable. Is there such a sales pitch from you, how can you buy it? However, Qin Feng is very familiar with the story of this gem. I always feel like I've heard of it somewhere.

Later, the large blue diamond was stolen from the French treasury in 1792. What happened to the thief, we don't know, except that it was reworked once, reduced to 45.52 carats, and appeared on the London jewellery market in 1830, where it was immediately bought by the banker Hope for £18,000. SINCE THEN, THE BLUE DIAMOND HAS BEEN NAMED "HOPE" BY ITS NEW OWNER. The auctioneer said.

Everyone was already feeling a chill down their spines. Is there such an evil gem?

"Ladies and gentlemen, the good news is here at this moment, because the English Hope means hope, so the drill is also known as "hope". The auctioneer laughed, "Do you think the fate of the gem has been completely reversed? No, the banker Hope never married, and he passed on the blue diamond to his grandson (on the condition that he change his surname to Hope). The new owner of the diamond later married an American actress, Yossi, but soon Hope Jr. went bankrupt and Yossi divorced him. Jossi died in Boston, USA, in 1940, and in her later years she was destitute, often complaining that the blue diamond "hope" had brought her an inextricable fortune. In 1906, Hope Jr. was forced to sell the blue diamond "Hope" in order to pay off his debts. ”

At this moment, everyone is not only cold in the spine, it is from the soles of their feet to the door of their heads.

This diamond is too evil.

"Tut-tut, whoever wants to get this gem will probably have to be unlucky!" Huo Gongzi smiled quickly. Just this kind of gem, for rich people like them, you won't want it for free.

Because it's very ominous. If you want to get this, you can't tell you, and you will fall into the middle of the road, and you will be at a loss. For those of them who are rich, death is not terrible.

In this life, they have enjoyed countless glory and wealth. Death, there will be no regrets. For them, the most fearful thing is that when they reach old age and are destitute, that is the fatal thing.

In 1908, the blue diamond "Hope" was bought by Sultan Hamid II of Turkey for $400,000. It is said that the merchant who handled the sale was out with his wife and children when his car overturned off a cliff and the whole family was killed. The blue diamond "Hope" was worn by the Sultan in the Turkish court as a reward to his confidant Zobid, who was soon executed by the Sultan. The auctioneer said.

The crowd already felt the urge to get rid of the auctioneer. Why are you still here to introduce this gem unknown, didn't you see that everyone was already scared and silent? Including Huo Gongzi, he didn't dare to say anything at the moment.

The entire auction site was shrouded in a dark cloud.

Chilly.

"What a wicked sect, we can't ask for this thing!" Lin Xiaoxiao whispered.

1 In 911, McClain, the postal service chief in Washington, D.C., purchased the blue diamond "Hope" for $114,000, which he gave to his wife as a gift. Lady McClain was told that it was a diamond that would bring bad luck, and talked about many historical legends, and Mrs. McClain laughed it off. She often wears this diamond and often wears it with another famous diamond she keeps, the 94.8-carat "Oriental Star", to show luxury and wealth. Perhaps it was a coincidence! The year after Mrs. McClain received the "hope" of the blue diamond, her son was killed in a car accident, her husband, Mr. McClain, died soon after, and her daughter died of an overdose on sleeping pills. The auction said with a sigh.

Wealthy businessmen have already begun to take a stand. This is too evil. This kind of thing, it's just touching and dying!

"So far, there is historical information that this sapphire necklace has had a total of 13 owners who died because of it. These owners are either rich or noble, and they all have been ruined in less than three years after owning them, because of all kinds of bad luck!" said the auctioneer.

The palms of many wealthy businessmen are already full of sweat. It's scary.

"Everyone, don't be afraid. At this moment, it is in the hands of the fourteenth master. After Mrs. McClain's death, Winston, a famous American jeweler, bought all her jewelry in 1958 and became the new owner of the blue diamond "Hope". As the owner of the sapphire necklace, Winston took the diamond of bad luck and flew across the Atlantic Ocean many times in different seasons, and all of them were unharmed. Mrs. Winston, who wore it, never suffered any disasters or disasters, and died all the time. His family has always been prosperous. "And because after the death of Mrs. Winston, who had been wearing the necklace, she had donated it to the Smithsonian Institution to study whether there was any magic or mystery in it." The auctioneer said.

When everyone heard this, their mood calmed down a little, and they were not as panicked as before.

"But after the Smithsonian Institution's research, this is just a very ordinary sapphire, at most beautiful, there is no mysterious magic, maybe what happened is just a coincidence. So, take it out and auction it for us. The reserve price is $20 million, and they hope to use this money to study more scientific problems and contribute to mankind!" said the auctioneer, "Now, please see the Hope Gem in action!"

The auctioneer opens the box that holds it.

A necklace composed of various small diamonds, and the pendant in the middle is a huge dark blue gemstone, which is extremely dazzling, revealing a strange magic power, which makes people's hearts pound.

At this moment, when Qin Feng saw this gem, he stood up directly and blurted out, "Heart of the Ocean!"

Isn't this the Heart of the Ocean! The Heart of the Ocean in "Titanic". No wonder I heard it so familiar. I saw it in the movie.

This chain is really beautiful!

"Heart of the Ocean?! Much better than I had hoped for. I think that after experiencing the bad luck of the 13 masters of the group, this heart of the ocean has faded away all the bad luck, and in the future, there will only be good luck. Guys, Heart of the Ocean, $20 million onwards!please!" the auctioneer picked up the hammer.
