Chapter 410: Buying Sri Lankan Sapphires



The last flower and bird painting by Qi Baishi turned out to be a fake.

Xu Nanxing frowned and said nothing.

But Li Guanhua, who had been watching her from the side, immediately noticed that Xu Nanxing's expression changed.

I took a look at the flower and bird painting by Mr. Qi that the auctioneer on the stage was introducing in detail. Could this also be a fake?

After this flower and bird painting, two more fake antiques were put on the market.

Xu Nanxing was almost impatient. If all the things coming up were fakes, she didn't plan to waste any more time.

Because of Xu Nanxing's attitude, Li Guanhua did not participate in the auction of these antiques.

The last item on display was not an antique, but a large, rare and beautiful Sri Lankan sapphire.

As soon as Xu Nanxing saw this dazzling sapphire, his eyes lit up!

It’s so beautiful!

Sri Lanka is synonymous with top-quality sapphires. The sapphires produced in Sri Lanka are highly transparent and have excellent clarity, with bright and rich colors. It is a famous sapphire producing area.

The Sri Lankan sapphire displayed at the auction is of extremely high purity, with a very bright and vivid color. It is also very large, weighing more than 100 carats.

In the world, the largest sapphires recorded are basically more than 400 carats.

Although the sapphire on site is only 100 carats, its purity and brightness are extremely rare.

Many ladies and young ladies present were attracted by the sapphire, even Li Shiqi, who was originally in a daze next to her, was attracted by it.

After the auctioneer announced the start of the bidding, the atmosphere on the scene instantly became lively, and those who brought their female companions all participated in the bidding.

Xu Nanxing is no exception.

The price of this sapphire rose from the reserve price of 80,000 to 200,000, and was finally bought by Xu Nanxing for 570,000.

Because this sapphire is just a single gem and not a finished piece of jewelry, the price Xu Nanxing paid for it is considered high.

Money can’t buy what you love. Xu Nanxing now has the financial strength, so she doesn’t care about the price at all. As long as she can buy it, it doesn’t matter how much it costs.

The last item was sold and the auction came to an end.

Xu Nanxing was too lazy to listen to these people's greetings. He took Li Shiqi and called a staff member, and went to the back to pay.

Because the total amount was relatively large, Xu Nanxing directly signed a check and handed it to the organizer.

I don’t know if it was Xu Nanxing’s illusion, but when she was signing the check, someone next to her said "Huh" softly. Xu Nanxing looked at this person, and the other person also looked at her unnaturally for a few seconds, then nodded and turned away.

Xu Nanxing did not take this little episode to heart. After she signed the check, a staff member called the bank to confirm it, and Xu Nanxing got the "A Beautiful Night in the Small Courtyard" and sapphire she had taken on the spot.

As for the villa in Repulse Bay that she bought in the auction, she has temporarily signed a transfer contract with the seller. The transaction will not be completed until the next day when both parties take their documents to the government department to complete the transfer procedures.

At that time, the organizer will also send someone to act as a middleman to urge both parties to complete the transaction, so that the organizer can get the commission.

The next day, Xu Nanxing arrived at the door of the government unit at the appointed time and met the seller and a staff member of the organizer.

The staff member, who was familiar with the procedure, helped them to complete the formalities smoothly and completed the transfer.

Now, Xu Nanxing finally has his own villa in Hong Kong!
