Chapter 3478 Crazy Diamond

Lin Feng is still thinking hard about how to make the sun and moon shine together, while Ellison is already busy.

Choosing a ring was a bit confusing for Ellison. When he got married for the first time, the ring was extremely simple. He had no money at the time, so he just bought a $500 ring for his wife in a gold store.

The ring. Until the divorce, he was still a pauper, so he was not good at buying rings. Fortunately, Paul Allen was an expert in this field.

Paul Allen is a famous playboy who has picked up countless girls. He knows very well what to use to seduce women, make them obsessed with you, and make them crazy about you. And diamond rings are undoubtedly the most attractive thing to seduce women. This woman loves to be surrounded by these glittering things.

People are attracted to shiny things, and then become obsessed with them, and then go crazy. But in fact, diamonds, in financial terms, are just a bunch of shining stones with no investment value. Spend millions to buy them.

Planting things is useless except to please women.

Of course, it's worth it if it can be used to please women. After all, what is the purpose of making money in this world? Isn't it just to pick up girls and enjoy life? If you have money, buy some to please women, that's no big deal.

"Ellison, how much are you going to spend on a diamond ring?" Paul Allen asked, standing in front of Hong Kong's largest gold store, Kowloon Saturday Fortune.

"Paul, are you making fun of me? With our current wealth, we can't afford a diamond ring!" Ellison glared at Paul Allen angrily.

Paul Allen smiled and went straight in without saying much.

"Two gentlemen, are you buying gold or jewelry?" The enthusiastic waiter noticed that the two of them were extraordinary and came forward to greet them warmly. Someone immediately handed over freshly brewed coffee.

"Nothing, let's take a look at the diamond rings. By the way, are there any unique diamond rings?" Paul Allen waved his hand and did not take the coffee. The coffee here is instant coffee, which he can't drink.

"Well, sir, you have come to the right place. Our Chow Tai Fook diamond rings are designed by famous designers and engraved by the best engraving team. Both the workmanship and the craftsmanship are among the best in the industry." The waiter boasted.

Paul Allen smiled and didn't say much. This kind of nonsense is just to deceive people like Ellison who have never bought a diamond ring. In fact, the level of the masters in a store like this is not much different, otherwise he would have been sold out long ago.

It's overcrowded. But truly top-notch design products are not what can be sold here.

"Okay, no need to say more. Let's take a look." Paul Allen waved his hand, "The price is not the issue, the issue is whether we can afford it or not."

"Sir, please come to our VIP room and have a look." The waiter greeted Ellison and the two warmly.

"Paul, these are not bad, I think they are OK." Ellison looked at the many expensive diamond rings placed on the counter with a satisfied look on his face. Although the prices are not too expensive, they do look good. At least Ellison

I think it's okay. In his opinion, it's worth spending tens of millions of dollars on a yacht. But it's not cost-effective to spend too much money on a diamond ring that won't keep its value even if you wear it on your hand. Here are tens of millions of dollars.

He thinks a diamond ring worth 10,000 Hong Kong dollars is enough.

"Ellison, if you are like this, you will never marry Lydia in your life. With your stinginess, you will be a bachelor for the rest of your life!" Paul Allen would never let go of any opportunity to attack Ellison.

Ellison had a gloomy look on his face. He was very unhappy after being hit by Paul Allen in such a way and yet being unable to refute. However, he had no way to reply. After all, he still had Paul Allen to ask for.

"Sir, don't we have something that satisfies you?" The waiter was a little unconvinced. There are a lot of new products here this time, which are quite expensive. In Hong Kong, they are considered top-notch. These two are obviously

Not satisfied!

"No, it's not that we are dissatisfied, it's that the stuff you have here can't impress the woman this man wants to marry." Paul Allen patted Ellison on the shoulder, "This man, about sixty years old, but

If you want to marry a famous lady in your twenties, how can you do it without spending some money!"

Ellison's face was dark. This Paul Allen really never forgets to take revenge on himself. Damn it, you'd better not get married in the future, and you'd better not let me seize the opportunity, otherwise I will definitely come back with revenge.

"Okay, let's go." Paul Allen pulled Ellison away from Chow Tai Fook, "Ellison, are you feeling unhappy at the moment? Hehe, but don't think about finding a chance to get back in the future. I'm not like you

, so careless about women. But I know how to please women."

Huh! Ellison snorted and was too lazy to pay attention to Paul Allen.

"Where to go now? Even the largest gold store failed to impress Ellison, so what should we do?" Ellison asked.

"Haha, it's very simple. Things in gold shops are usually not very good. If not, go to the auction house. I checked and there is an auction at Sotheby's today. Let's see if there is anything good." Paul

Allen laughed.

Not long after, the two appeared at the Sotheby's auction house. They were lucky enough to find one, and it was worth a lot of money. The diamond was named Wittelsbach, which belonged to the Wittelsbach, an ancient royal family in Germany.

The royal treasure of the dynasty, the Wittelsbach Blue Diamond weighs 35.56 carats and is crystal clear, comparable to the other most famous diamond in the world, the Hope.

No one knows why this Wittelsbach will appear at Sotheby's in Hong Kong. Logically speaking, it should appear at an auction house in Europe. After all, in terms of purchasing power, Hong Kong's purchasing power is still far from that of Europe and the United States.

. And its auction reserve price of US$20 million is enough to prove that it is unsaleable in Hong Kong. When the auction house called out, no one raised a placard for half a minute.

The auctioneer glanced at it and was not too disappointed. Such a precious diamond was not popular in Hong Kong. After all, this diamond is worth hundreds of millions of Hong Kong dollars. Although the super rich in Hong Kong can't afford it, those rich people can't afford it.

Most of them are in the industry, and most of them are reluctant to spend hundreds of millions to buy a diamond. After all, they all know that this diamond is actually just for speculation.

In the eastern region of Siberia, Russia, there is a diamond mine with an area of ​​hundreds of square kilometers. It contains hundreds of millions of carats of diamonds, which can be used by humans around the world for 3,000 years. This is just a diamond mine discovered in Russia.

Counting other places around the world. The reason why diamond prices have remained high in recent years is mainly because diamond mine owners are controlling sales to avoid a sharp decline in diamond prices. Therefore, it is not cost-effective to spend so much money on a diamond.

It is normal for the auction to fail here in Hong Kong. Originally, the reason why Sotheby’s wanted to auction it in Hong Kong first was mainly to promote it, and its auction focus was in Europe. The historical background of this diamond is that it

The possible reason for the high price is that without the historical background, the diamond itself would not be worth so much money.

"21 million!" Unexpectedly, someone made a bid.

The bidder was, of course, Ellison. Although he felt that this diamond was not cost-effective, it was really not cost-effective to spend so much money on a beautiful stone. But Paul Allen said that this diamond would definitely impress Lydia.

So he bought it. It was only 21 million US dollars. He could still afford this amount of money. To him, this amount of money was nothing.

21 million! The auctioneer frowned, now he was in trouble. It was originally expected that this diamond would fetch a high price of at least 25 million US dollars, maybe even higher. But now it was bought for 21 million US dollars, and this time it was a loss of several hundred dollars.

Ten thousand US dollars. Their commission is much less. But according to the rules, since someone bids, the deal will naturally be completed.

After repeated inquiries, the Wittelsbach diamond belonged to Ellison.

"Congratulations to this gentleman, you have won the Wittelsbach Diamond!" the auctioneer shouted.

Everyone turned around and looked at the foreigner carefully, not knowing his identity. Both of them were relatively low-key at this time and not so glamorous. They were both elderly people and they walked quickly until they left.

No one recognized the two of them.

"Okay, now let's go find a gold shop to make the ring style. Let's go quickly, this will take some time, don't delay, otherwise you won't be able to propose today." Paul Allen's tone was slightly urgent.

Ellison has no idea at all at the moment and leaves everything to Paul Allen.

While the ring matter was being resolved here, Li Zekai, Zheng Zhiheng, and Tang Jiacheng also started a frantic purchase of flowers. Lidya was born in a prominent family and was a well-known model in her own right, but she was not known for her beauty.

She is famous for her temperament. And the flowers she likes are naturally different. Her favorite flowers are not roses, but plum blossoms.

Plum blossoms, this gives Li Zekai and others a headache. Plum blossoms belong to the Rosaceae family and like warm, moist land. Of course, these are not problems. The real problem is that plum blossoms bloom in February, which is the coldest time of the year.

season. And now it is July, the hottest season of the year. It is really difficult to see plum blossoms at this time.

Fortunately, the three of them are well-known figures in Hong Kong, with lofty status and powerful means. Together, the three of them can still find plum blossoms. However, there are very few plum blossoms planted in Hong Kong. That is, some families plant some because of their own preference.

A few plum blossoms are not enough to meet the needs of a proposal. Especially when Lin Feng booked a nightclub at Disneyland, it would be very difficult to cover such a large venue with plum blossoms.
