Dressed Like a Cute Little Lucky Bag Chapter 852

Chapter 848: Symbols of Status

  Bai Jingjing was becoming more and more cheerful. The more this idiot acted, the faster Gu Tingyun would dislike him.

  "The third lot is a blue and white porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty. It is a work of art from the period when the manufacturing technology was most mature in China. Since the Yuan Dynasty was relatively short and the production was extremely small, the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan Dynasty is even more precious. The auction price is 800,000! Each bid starts at 50,000 yuan. Please bid."

  "Congratulations to guest No. 1 for winning the Yuan Dynasty blue and white porcelain!"

  "..."

  Helian Jiao bought everything she liked at the auction. After all, she could give it to her family members: jewelry for female relatives, and antiques and calligraphy for the old man!

  Everyone was shocked!

  Just a rough calculation showed that the items she bought were worth millions!

  Gu Tingyun didn't even try to stop her?

  The auction continued.

  The staff stood on the stage holding a box. They lifted the red cloth to reveal a huge azure diamond necklace. Everyone present was shocked when they saw the diamond.

  Most of them recognized the diamond!

  I hadn't expected this to be the grand finale of today's auction.

  This diamond is incredibly rare, practically priceless, and the last one to come out of the water was over a hundred years ago!

  The atmosphere was already reaching a fever pitch.

  "The tenth lot is called the Hope Diamond, also known as the King of Diamonds. Weighing 45.52 carats, it boasts an extremely rare deep blue color. Founded in 1909, it's even called the 'Diamond of Doom.' Its beauty, like a mermaid from the deep sea, beckons everyone who sees it. Get it! Own it!" the host's voice beckoned.

  "It's as famous as the Heart of the Deep Sea. Auction price: five million! Bids start at two hundred thousand yuan each. Bid!

  The King of Diamonds!

  This diamond drives every woman crazy, and they all bid, including the Viscountess from earlier. "Five, six hundred thousand!"

  Even Bai Jingjing shifted her attention away from Helian Jiao and raised her bid for the first time: "Five, eight hundred thousand!"

  "Six million!" Bai Weiying followed suit.

  This kind of diamond no longer just represents wealth, but also a symbol of status. Everyone wants to bite the bullet and try their luck.

  But the little princess, who owns countless jewels and diamonds, can't afford an ordinary diamond.

  "Six million six hundred thousand!"   

  As the bidding price rose, some people gradually dropped out.

  But the pace of bidding continued unabated!

  "Eight million!"

  When the price reached eight million, Bai Jingjing could only stop in anger. She and her mother's personal savings combined were less than ten million.

  She glanced at Helian Jiao, who was munching on fruit, and a thought struck her. She began to encourage him again, "Miss Chen, this is the king of diamonds. Only the most noble women can own it. Aren't you tempted at all? But then again, it's already eight million. The price is simply too high,"

  she said, deliberately goading Helian Jiao.

  But the little princess remained unmoved, not even glancing at her, continuing to eat her watermelon.

  "Ten million!"

  "Eleven million!" the Viscountess raised her placard.

  Another followed suit, saying, "Eleven million, two hundred thousand!"

  "This is He Junlin's mother, Madam He," Bai Weiying introduced softly.

  Now only two people remained in the bidding.

  "Thirteen million, eight hundred thousand!" the Viscountess raised her placard again.

  Mrs. He pondered for a moment, hesitating again and again, raising and lowering her hand, but ultimately she didn't bid and withdrew from the auction.
