Chapter 293: An Extraordinary Auction
ut you play in your room by yourself, sweetie"Gu Zhi had many questions he wanted to ask Cheng Ke Xin, so he could only let Meng Bao play by himself in the house for a while."Ke Xin, tell me what's go...Ou Yang Chu didn't hurry to answer his question. The general manager wasn't angry either, but instead became even more anxious to make amends.
"Chu Shao, if you take a liking to anything from Long Xi Shengjing at this auction, just let me know. Whatever it is, I'll make sure to keep it for you!"
As the general manager spoke, he was about to go down into the cargo hold to give instructions, looking both anxious and excited.
To his surprise, he turned to happily help Ou Yang Chu with his affairs. However, Ou Yang Chu suddenly spoke in a cold voice from behind him.
"Wait."
The general manager turned around eagerly.
"Do you have any other orders"
"You arrange it, this time I want to participate in the auction anonymously, don't let anyone know I'm coming."
The general manager froze in place. It turned out that it wasn't about having something reserved for him by the brand, but rather participating anonymously.
The general manager found it rather strange, because for someone like Ou Yang Chu's status, there was no need to specifically attend an auction. As long as he pleased, any item from Long Xi Sheng Jing would be willingly handed to him.
Why bother taking that extra step
He wasn't sure about the higher-ups, whether they had any particular fondness for this sort of thing. Anyway, it wasn't something someone at his level could ask about, so he didn't dwell on it further.
Just keep plastering on a fawning smile and nodding in agreement.
"No problem, Shao Chu. Please rest assured, with my arrangements, no one will know your identity. So shall I take you to the room now"
The Zelda cruise will continue to sail on the ocean for a few days after it sets sail, so naturally there are still rooms available on the ship.
Only then did Ou Yang Chu nod, and the general manager, still beaming, turned and led the way.
The general manager walked at the front, and kept a certain distance from Ou Yang Chu. He must have his own advantages to be in this position of general manager.
For example, he is now very discerning. Puyu Gu Xia has confirmed the general manager, and after not hearing them speak, the expression on his face immediately became serious.
Then she couldn't wait to get closer to Ou Yang Chu, finally leaning in and lowering her voice.
"Aren't there any outsiders here Why on earth did you have to come to the Long Xi Shengjing auction"
Of course, Ou Yang Chu wasn't going to hide anything from him. He just replied in a low voice.
Because of the sigh of the archangel, Xu Zui Ning said that there was frost-bone poison in the sigh of the archangel.
Puyun Gus Xia never expected to be involved in this matter, and she suddenly gasped, her whole face turning pale.
So you're really here to... try and figure out what happened with Long Xi Shengjing
Ouyang Chu nodded, the two people exchanged a knowing glance and understood each other implicitly.
Only Xu Zuiying still felt a little dazed.
"What is the relationship between the sigh of the archangel and the magnificent scene of Long Xi"
"That's right, now everyone only knows that the sigh of the Archangel is a relic left by Ouyang Chu's mother. But what people don't know is that the sigh of the Archangel was made for Ouyang Chu's mother by someone during Long Xi's prosperous era."
Puyun Gu Xia saw Xu Zui Ning's confused expression and kindly explained, only then did Xu Zui Ning nod in understanding.
The sigh of the archangel is, after all, a diamond ring. Since the diamond on it was custom-made by Long Xisheng Jing, what could they possibly have to do with the poison inside
So, is Ouyang Chu here today to auction things off just to get into the company and gather useful information
"But what is this auction What kind of rough stone"
Xu Zui Ning was a bit puzzled. There was an auction on the cruise ship, which was normal, but she didn't understand what a rough stone auction was or what a rough stone was.
Puyun Guxia continued to shoulder the responsibility of understanding.
"The gemstone auction was actually just a publicity stunt orchestrated by Long Xi Shengjing Company."
"Puyun Gu Xia is doing well. I've just given Xu Zui Ning a brief introduction to this auction."
Generally, jewelry company auctions put up their most valuable items for sale directly to the public.
But Long Xisheng realized that the same path, even if walked over and over again, would not lead to greater achievements. So they opened up such an unusual path.
To pique customer curiosity and cater to people's gambling instincts, this gemstone auction was specially organized. In essence, it is an auction of raw ore.
All the ore looked like a dark lump, there was no significant difference between them, and no one could tell if there were diamonds inside.
As for the ranking of diamonds, it goes without saying that there is no way to know.
Therefore, the auction was conducted without any knowledge of the situation, let alone the ability to compete with discerning eyes. It essentially boiled down to a contest of luck.
A discerning buyer with a bit of luck can snag excellent ore for a pittance, while those with bad luck might spend their entire fortune and get nothing in return.
After each meeting ends, employees of Gem Company will publicly cut and sell the mined stones.
This is where the real excitement happens, checking everyone's auction results! It's full of unknowns and surprises, and it really brings the whole rehearsal to life.
The purpose of the Gemstone Show is not just to auction diamonds, it's more about wealthy people having fun and competing with each other.
"Speaking of which, I'm still a bit unclear."
After Pu Yun Gu Xia had finished explaining the ancient stone auction to Xu Zui Ning, she couldn't help but ask Ouyang Chu beside her with some curiosity.
"If you really want to get closer to people from that company, just buy more of their products. What's the point of us going all the way to this cruise ship for an auction"
Ouyang Chu's expression did not waver in the slightest.
“I’ve already had people investigate this. The designer responsible for designing and cutting the jewels at today’s auction was the same designer who worked on Angelus' Sigh back then.”
Although what is auctioned at the auction is just raw ore, how can you simply give someone a piece of ore after the auction Therefore, naturally, there will be a jewelry designer who designs and cuts jewelry at every auction.
After the auction of raw stones is complete, jewelers will immediately cut the rough ore and then make a simple design.
After one or two weeks of complete production, the items will be returned to the customer.
Today, Ouyang Chu's target is this designer.
"It had been twenty years since he last laid a hand to anything after designing the sigh of the archangel."
Although Ouyang Chu's expression was faint, it was filled with an air of determination to succeed.
He led Xu Zui Ning into the cabin, explaining the last sentence as he turned back.
"But recently his son owed a huge debt, and this time he had to help Long Xisheng's company, but I'm afraid it will only be the last time. So I have to seize this opportunity."ubbed Cheng Ke Xin's head, then silently wiped away the tears from the corner of his own eyes." 。Yang Zu, who was taking the baby out to eat, remembered his chat with Zhao Yi just now and a happy smil...
