Two minutes later, a man in his fifties or sixties came down from upstairs.
When the people sitting in the living room saw Mr. Wu appear, they all greeted him.
Mr. Wu responded with a few words with a smile, then ordered the butler to take people to take out all the newly arrived gems.
After waiting for a few more minutes, the butler came to the living room with three bodyguards and three trays.
The tray was placed on the table in the middle of the living room, covered with a layer of black velvet.
On the velvet cloth were placed red and blue sapphires of various sizes.
There is a pigeon blood ruby of about five carats, which stands out among the other light pink rubies.
Almost all jewelers have their eyes on the pigeon blood ruby.
One of the dark-skinned Thai men asked in English, "Mr. Wu, how much is this pigeon blood ruby?"
Mr. Wu smiled faintly and said, "Three million US dollars. This pigeon blood ruby is the only top-grade gemstone I have."
Everyone present secretly gasped.
Three million is not expensive for a five-carat pigeon blood ruby.
But the problem is that there are so many people present, and everyone wants to get this one and only top-quality gem. If it is auctioned off, it will be worth more than three million.
This ruby is worth at most five or six million, if it's more than that, it will be a loss.
Huo Jieyan looked at the pigeon blood ruby and thought that it would look great if it was made into a necklace and worn around Yan Ning's neck.
Someone in the crowd started bidding: "I'll offer 3.2 million."
After the first one, there was a second one, and the scene was filled with bidding sounds one after another.
"I'll give you three and a half million."
"I'll give you 3.7 million."
"I'll give you four million."
“…”
"I'll give you six million."
Seeing that the situation was almost settled, Huo Jieyan also started bidding: "I'll offer 6.2 million."
Yan Ning sat beside him silently.
Look at this small piece of pigeon blood ruby, it was bid so high, and in US dollars.
She couldn't help but think of the various top-quality gems in her space, as if they had turned into countless coins waving at her.
There were still a few people at the scene bidding.
"I'll give you six and a half million."
"I'll give you 6.7 million."
Huo Jieyan gritted her teeth and said, "I'll give you seven million."
Another person looked at the wealthy woman and said calmly, "I'll give you 7.5 million."
Seeing that the price was already ridiculously high, others stopped bidding.
Huo Jieyan was about to speak when she suddenly felt someone pat her arm.
She turned her head to look at Yan Ning and asked softly, "What's wrong, Xiao Ning?"
Yan Ning whispered softly, "This ruby is not worth such a high price. Let's not take it."
How could Sister Huo not know that this ruby was not worth seven million US dollars, but she wanted to buy it and make it into jewelry for Yan Ning.
"I wanted to buy it and make it into a necklace for you."
Yan Ning opened his eyes wide, "Then I can't accept it. If you make a necklace out of such an expensive gemstone and give it to me, I'm afraid I'll be robbed if I wear it!"
Huo Jieyan paused, and when she was about to say something, she heard Mr. Wu say:
"Then this pigeon blood ruby belongs to Boss Li."
The rich woman who had just bid 7.5 million smiled with satisfaction.
The butler put the pigeon blood ruby into a velvet bag, put a name tag with Mr. Li on it, and then put the velvet bag into a password box.
The remaining gems on the tray are all bright red, rose red and pink rubies.
There are also sapphires in colors such as blue, light blue, sky blue, green, and yellow.
These gems are similar except for their sizes.
There was no more bidding for a gem.
Everyone picked and chose a number of gems they liked.
Huo Jieyan also bought four rubies and two sapphires.
These gems are not expensive, and Sister Huo Yan brought enough cash.
Make payment directly with Mr. Wu on the spot.
Pay the money and get the goods.
Huo Jieyan took the velvet bag, looked at it, and put it into the inner layer of her shoulder bag after confirming that there was no problem.
After buying the things, Sister Huo said hello to Mr. Wu and took Yan Ning out the door.
Several people got in the car and left the manor.
It was already past five in the afternoon when we got back to the hotel.
Several people had dinner in the hotel restaurant before returning to their rooms.
After a day of shopping, Yan Ning washed up and lay down on the bed to rest.
When she saw Sister Huo Yan coming out of the bathroom after washing up, she asked, "Aunt, when are we going back to Hong Kong City?"
Huo Jieyan: "There is only one flight from Miandian to Hong Kong City at 8 o'clock in the morning. We will definitely not be able to catch it tomorrow morning.
Tomorrow morning I will take you out for a walk, and then after lunch we will take a bus to Yangon.
Rest in a hotel near Yangon Airport for the night, and then take the 8:00 a.m. flight back to the port city the next day."
Yan Ning nodded.
The next morning around eight o'clock.
Huo Jieyan and Yan Ning got up, washed up, packed their luggage and went out.
The group went downstairs to check out of the room, left the hotel and got on a car to the city center of Mandalay.
The vehicle drove for half an hour and arrived at the entrance of the city center shopping mall.
Huo Jieyan left a bodyguard in the car to guard the password box.
