I Open a General Store in Early Tang

Zhuang Zhou, unemployed at home, unexpectedly obtained a time-space gate that could travel to the Tang Dynasty's Zhenguan era, and could also carry items with him. Thus, Zhuang Zhou embarked on...

Chapter 365 Shocked!!!

Christie's Asia Pacific headquarters.

Inside the conference room.

Pang Zhifeng has an elegant temperament and a lovely smile.

At the introduction of Li Mingsheng, he shook hands with Zhuang Zhou.

In the following time, Pang Zhifeng gave a brief introduction to the situation of Christie's.

and their upcoming Spring Sale in May.

Zhuang Zhou listened with great interest and was deeply impressed by Christie's professionalism and rigor.

After chatting for a while, Pang Zhifeng got to the point:

"I heard that Mr. Zhuang has some great treasures he wants to put on the Spring Auction?"

"Yes."

"Well, is it convenient to take it out again so I can take a look?"

"sure!"

Zhuang Zhou took out something again.

Because Li Mingsheng had already taken a preliminary look at it before.

The items that can be confirmed to be included in the spring auction are the Malipo emerald, the dragon-shaped golden sculpture and the night pearl.

These three things alone have shocked Pang Zhifeng!

Of course, on the surface Pang Zhifeng seemed quite calm.

However, this night-shining pearl undoubtedly made him excited:

"How heavy is this night-shining pearl?"

Zhuang Zhou had already weighed it before.

So he said it directly:

"129 grams."

"I think so too. 129 grams makes 645 carats. That's quite a lot!"

When Pang Zhifeng said this, his expression was filled with uncontrollable joy.

There’s no way!

Over the years of working in this industry, I have also been involved in auctions of night pearl meteorites.

But in terms of appearance alone, I have never seen anything as good as this.

Because most of the night pearls auctioned in the past were meteorites.

Zhuang Zhou's night pearl is a finished product that has been polished.

certainly!

What Pang Zhifeng didn't know was that even the polishing process was done purely by hand using ancient methods.

All of the above are undoubtedly explained.

It is no exaggeration to say that this night pearl is a rare treasure.

Seeing this, Zhuang Zhou knew that this night pearl must be worth a lot of money.

He had heard before that it might be sold for 100 million, so what he is most concerned about now is how much it can be sold for.

"President Pang, I'd like to ask, how much would a night-shining pearl like this fetch at auction?"

Pang Zhifeng smiled faintly and did not directly answer the question:

"This needs to be appraised by professionals before it can be valued. After all, there are many different qualities of night-shining pearls."

Zhuang Zhou didn't quite understand what he heard.

Then Pang Zhifeng simply said a little more.

The so-called night pearl is actually a kind of unburned cosmic meteorite outside the earth.

When it deviates from its original orbit or breaks into pieces and scatters onto the earth.

Under the action of high temperature and high pressure conditions, a single crystal mineral composed of carbon is gradually formed.

This is the so-called night pearl meteorite.

This formation process will take at least thousands of years.

The original shapes and sizes of meteorites are different.

Then Pang Zhifeng said:

"However, Mr. Zhuang's Night Pearl has already been polished and shaped into a complete product, so the price will definitely be higher.

To be honest, I once auctioned a night pearl in 2008, and the final transaction price was 17 million US dollars.

Of course, there are also cheap ones, such as the Night Pearl Meteorites that cost a few thousand yuan.

I can’t say anything about this until it’s appraised, and I can’t give a specific price right now.”

All right!

Zhuang Zhou knew that the other party would not be able to give a specific auction price.

After appreciating it for a while, Pang Zhifeng directly expressed his thoughts:

"Mr. Zhuang, are you interested in putting this night-shining pearl up for auction at Christie's Spring Auction?"

Zhuang Zhou was stunned for a moment. What did this mean?

Do you just want to put the Night Pearl on the auction?

"Boss Pang, can we have that emerald gem and the golden dragon sculpture?"

"sure!

I just paid special attention to this night-shining pearl, and honestly, I am also looking forward to getting an ideal price for it."

All right!

My buddy thought you only wanted the Night Pearl to be put up for the spring auction!

Oh, Zhuang Zhou suddenly remembered that he also brought diamonds.

Because it was placed in the compartment of a suitcase and I never took it out.

I didn’t even see Ma Changbo last night.

"By the way, I have 36 diamonds here. I wonder if they can be put up for auction?"

Pang Zhifeng was surprised and doubtful when he heard this:

"How much did you say?"

“36!”

Pang Zhifeng was stunned for a moment and said with a smile:

"There are quite a lot of them, but they definitely won't work if they're too small."

In Pang Zhifeng's opinion, if a person owns 36 diamonds, then each one must not be too big.

"Then let me show you first!"

As Zhuang Zhou spoke, he took out the cloth bag containing diamonds.

Suddenly a huge lump was revealed.

And it's heavy.

Zhuang Zhou opened the cloth bag, casually took out a diamond and placed it on the glass table.

Pang Zhifeng stared at the diamond in astonishment, his brows furrowed.

"This... is this big?"

Diamond is the rough stone of diamond.

Cutting and processing is carried out on the basis of diamond.

Generally speaking, a finished diamond of two carats is considered very good.

But now, each of the diamonds in front of me is at least 10 carats.

This is extremely rare to see.

The main reason is that there are too many of them!

A total of 36 pieces.

"Mr. Zhuang, is this the biggest one?"

"Not necessarily. Each one is about this size."

"What?"

At this moment, even Ma Changbo was shocked beyond words:

"Brother Zhuang, how could I not know that you still have so many diamonds!"
