Fang Yusheng smiled and said, “If you have something you like, I can buy it for you.” His generosity was about to touch Qiao Jiusheng when she heard him continue, “But I can only buy one at most. I can’t afford to buy more.”
Qiao Jiusheng was speechless.
I’ll buy the most expensive one!
“Is there anything you like?”
“I do.”
Qiao Jiusheng did not even look at the booklet before saying, “The 28th piece is the most beautiful one here.” She looked inexplicably proud.
Qi Bufan had been following the two of them. When he heard Qiao Jiusheng say that the 28th piece was the most beautiful, he picked up the auction booklet and took a look. He found the 28th piece and realized that it was a black jade sculpture. Engraved on it were two playful lions playing with a ball. The engraver’s skills were superb, and the lions carved were lifelike. The piece had been polished and looked especially smooth.
This jade was extremely rich in color, like the night.
It’s a good thing.
Qi Bufan did not know about the variety of jades, so he could not tell what kind of jade it was.
When Qiao Jiusheng saw him observing the auction booklet, she explained, “This is Hetian black jade.”
Qi Bufan asked, “Does Madam know?”
Qiao Jiusheng nodded. “I know a little.”
Fang Yusheng thought of something and suddenly asked, “Jade carving?”
Qi Bufan nodded. Knowing that his master could not see, he explained, “Madam said that it’s Hetian black jade seal. Carved into it are two lions playing with a ball.” Qi Bufan carefully looked at the introduction and said, “The auctioneer introduced that this jade has yet to be carved with a name. Whoever obtains this jade will be qualified to receive the honor of the engraver personally carving their name on the jade.”
Fang Yusheng suddenly smirked and asked Qi Bufan, “Who is the engraver?”
Qi Bufan looked down and said, “Erza.”
“I’ve never heard of them,” Fang Yusheng said.
Qiao Jiusheng’s lips suddenly curled up as she unhappily looked at Fang Yusheng.
It was late at night, and the auction hall was full.
People of noble status sat in a small room on the second floor. Ordinary celebrities and wealthy people sat in the hall lobby. Qiao Jiusheng and Fang Yusheng sat in the hall. Qiao Jiusheng looked down at the auction book and thought: The penniless me can’t get any of the treasures getting auctioned today. Hence, she was quite calm when she saw the beautiful jewelry items.
Fang Yusheng repeatedly touched the gemstone on his cane. He lowered his head, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The auction soon began.
As the items were auctioned off one by one, the atmosphere at the scene completely soared.
The 25th auction item was a five-carat pink diamond necklace. The pink diamond was precious, so it naturally wasn’t cheap. In the end, a rich generation heir bought the necklace and gave it to the Hollywood actress beside him on the spot.
Qiao Jiusheng pursed her lips, feeling very calm.
Her family’s jewelry was famous all over the world. She had seen many of these things in the past and was not envious.
Product no. 26 was a bracelet. This bracelet itself was not precious, but because the designer was Enoch, its value had increased countless times. A female socialite bought this chain.
The No. 27 auction item was a jade waist chain.
This chain was not only an accessory, but also a health care product for women.
Why did the emcee say that? He introduced it by saying that this waist chain was specially developed by X Smart Company, which specialized in developing high-tech products. This product was newly developed this year and could relieve the cold, pain, and sore waist of women during their physiological periods.
The jade on this chain was not real jade, but heat jade.
Heat Jade was also a product developed by X Smart Company. It looked as warm and beautiful as jade, but it could produce heat. Furthermore, the heat could be adjusted.
The belt was not expensive, and its starting price was only US $5,000. However, as it had yet to enter the market and enter production, only one such belt currently existed in the world. Thus, every woman here desired it.
What they wanted to buy was not a belt, but that bragging right.
