When Xiao Nai saw that the luminous pearl in the box was emitting golden-white light, his expression immediately changed. He was no longer as careless as before, and suddenly became serious.
Because he knows very well that only the light emitted by the real meteorite night pearl will be golden white. Only a few hundred people in the world know this. The rest of the general public thinks that the meteorite night pearl is similar to the fluorite night pearl, both of which emit light. It's glowing green.
In this way, the possibility of counterfeiting the two luminous pearls in this box is immediately reduced a lot.
After getting serious, Xiao Nai immediately put on professional equipment and began to use magnifying glasses, microscopes, spectrometers and other identification instruments to carefully observe the two oval-shaped, golden-white, translucent meteorite night pearls in the box.
After a long time, he sighed:
¡°This night pearl is indeed real.
But I don¡¯t know how to value it. The quality of these two luminous pearls is even better than the one in the English Museum. Last time, the world¡¯s largest auction house, Gary Snow Auction House, auctioned one that was better than any of these two. A meteorite night pearl, which is more than ten carats smaller, was auctioned for 230 million Europa coins at that time. When converted into Chinese coins in our country, that is a little more than 2.3 billion, and that is already The price was three years ago. If it were auctioned again now, the price might go up a bit, but I'm worried that it won't sell and it won't be sold. "
Many times, it does not mean that the more expensive something is, the better. Only something that can be sold is considered valuable. If it cannot be sold, even if everyone thinks it is a priceless treasure, it is useless.
Last year, all countries in the world just experienced a global financial crisis. Many companies suffered heavy losses, and tens of trillions of funds were evaporated in the stock and fund markets at once. Therefore, at this time, no one has a strong desire to buy. , the business of the entire top jewelry industry is not very good, let alone such a high-value luminous pearl, the probability of being unsold is very high.
"It may not sell, but it may sell, right? In this case, leave one for auction in your auction house. If it sells, just sell it. If it doesn't, just return it to me."
Because Qiao Mu already knew that the box of diamonds and two boxes of gems he took out earlier were valued at around one billion, he naturally wasn't that concerned about whether the two meteorite night pearls could be sold. Even if they were sold, it would be nothing. It¡¯s just the icing on the cake, there¡¯s no rush if it doesn¡¯t sell.
"Okay, Ms. Qiao, everything is as you wish. So, can we sign an auction agreement now? Because the things you auction are relatively precious, our auction house will appropriately reduce the handling fee.
We only charge you 1% of the handling fee. "
No matter whether the meteorite night pearl can be sold or not, as long as the meteorite night pearl is on their auction stage, it will improve the grade and status of their auction house. How can the auction house improve its grade? It relies on the rare items that are auctioned off. The more rare treasures it sells, the higher the status of the auction house among its peers and the rich.
Therefore, even if Bai Mi knew that the meteorite night pearl had a high probability of failing to be auctioned, he was not willing to give up the auction of this night pearl. This was something that could enhance the style of their auction house.
How can you give up?
"Don't worry. The prices of the box of colored diamonds and the two boxes of gemstones I took out are actually quite fixed. They won't go up much even if they go up for auction. I'm too lazy to put in the effort anymore, so I'll just let your auction house buy them." Well, let¡¯s go with the national standard price.
Is there a problem? "
How can Qiao Mu have time to wait for them to slowly auction here? She is in urgent need of money now, so naturally she has to find another way to exchange money. If she is auctioning things like paintings and calligraphy, she may not be able to sell them directly to the auction house. Because the prices of things like calligraphy and paintings are really hard to say. If you meet people who like it, you can pay more. If you meet people who don¡¯t like it, the auction may be unsold. The risk of buying it directly from the auction house is relatively high, but jewelry such as diamonds and gems are more expensive. There is no such worry, because the prices of diamonds and gemstones are quite transparent internationally. As long as they are not fake, the final price will not fluctuate much.
Even if it is not auctioned, it can be resold to a jeweler, and you will not lose money no matter what.
"It's possible, but the funds involved in your jewelry are a bit large. I have to ask the higher-ups for instructions. I'd like to ask you to wait a moment."
When Bai Mi thought that his boss also ran a jewelry business, and that this type of top-quality jewelry was always a rarity, he would not lose money if he bought it, he immediately agreed and said:?, turned around and went out to ask for instructions from the boss, asking the boss for funds.
The process was not very smooth.
After all, the funds involved are not tens of millions, but a full billion. Even for one of the most famous rich people in the country, one billion in cash is not small money, so naturally one has to be more cautious. The boss behind the auction house Several more professional appraisers were sent over to re-appraise the jewelry provided by Qiao Mu.
After all the jewelry appraisers confirmed that the diamonds and gemstones provided by Qiaomu were genuine and extremely rare, they formally signed a purchase agreement and auction agreement with Qiaomu.
The purchase agreement is naturally a box of colored diamonds and two boxes of gemstones provided by Qiao Mu, while the auction agreement is to auction a meteorite night pearl.
After all this trouble, by the time Qiao Mu left the auction house, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon, and Qiao Mu also had a National Bank black card worth more than 960 million in his hand.
Although the items were valued at around one billion, they definitely had to be haggled. Qiaomu was really anxious to get money, so they didn¡¯t argue with them any more. In addition, the price they paid back was actually not particularly excessive. At best, it was Even at a 95% discount on the national standard price, Qiaomu can still accept this slight step back.
After getting the money, Qiao Mu still did not go directly to the entertainment company where her grandson worked. Instead, she went to do other things first, such as buying a car, hiring dozens of bodyguards, and signing a lawyer. Firms and law firms require a dozen gold-medal lawyers to lead them.
Even if she is rich now, it is not easy to go to an entertainment company that does not know the details to fish out her grandson alone. Therefore, before going, it is natural to make some preparations that may be needed, such as pomp and circumstance. , such as bodyguards, such as lawyers.
When everything was ready, Qiao Mu got into the newly purchased Maybach fleet at nearly six o'clock, took thirty bodyguards and fourteen gold-medal lawyers to Yaohui Entertainment. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
