Chapter 810 (1/2)

May 3, Wednesday.

In the afternoon, he finished the last work of ”evocation 2” and Simon took part in his first public event since he came to London in the evening.

A fine jewelry auction at Christie's.

In fact, it is also a support for our own industry.

After buying this auction house, Simon paid much less attention to Christie's, let alone Sophia, than Janet. It is probably that women are naturally more interested in expensive antique treasures than men.

There was no special arrangement in advance, so when Simon appeared at Christie's auction house with a well-dressed Yulia schulthina, it obviously caused quite a stir.

The daily life of the auction house is far from the hundreds of millions that ordinary people imagine. It is said that it is a boutique jewelry auction. In fact, it is only a very ordinary auction. This time, there are 27 pieces of jewelry in total, and the estimated total amount of the auction is only 5 million pounds. Among them, the most expensive diamond necklace is estimated at 500000 pounds, which is donated by Princess Diana and planned to be used for charity. It's tonight The biggest gimmick of the auction.

Because of its small scale, few top British celebrities and dignitaries attended in person, most of them just sent their own agents to attend.

Stepping on the spot, Simon and his wife took a back seat in the court. They just had a simple dinner with a couple next to the seat, and the auction soon began.

The staff sent a beautifully bound list. Simon followed the auction with great interest, and then flipped through the book. He sent it to Shuer higgina, who was next to him. He said in a soft voice, ”look which one you like, tell me.”

She took the book from the man and opened it carefully.

The mood is still not very calm.

It's probably a leak to be around a man tonight.

Simon has been living in the villa in Kensington Garden Street these days. It happens that a few Ukrainian goblins also come to London to play, and they are not arranged to stay in the villa. However, after dinner tonight, when the man talks about the auction, he can only take one person with him. He probably doesn't know how to choose among the three girls, so he falls on her.

When she left, she obviously felt that the three girls looked at her with hostility in their eyes. Shuerxijinna didn't care. Her heart was not without waves that she could attend the activities with men in public.

A woman knows that this is a public declaration of her identity.

She is his lover.

After carefully turning over the pamphlet, she did not choose the jewelry she liked. These expensive things, which cost hundreds of thousands of pounds, were too far from her life.

The auction went on very fast.

The man turned to ask again that five pieces of jewelry had been taken away, so he showed him an emerald necklace. The starting price was 80000 pounds, which was not the lowest in the book, but it was absolutely not high.

”It's not suitable for you. Let me help you choose it.”

Ear came a sentence, she was a little uneasy, just nodded meekly.

I don't really like it.

After more than ten minutes, a ruby necklace appeared on the stage. The starting price was 250000 pounds, which was the more expensive one tonight.

Looking at the necklace projection on the big screen, inexplicably some heart, without trace of a glance at the man next to him, and quickly convergence eyes.

Obviously, many people have taken a fancy to this necklace, and there are frequent price calls under the stage.

However, after more than 400000 pounds, there will be a lot less people competing for it. If the specifications of this auction are put there, it is impossible for some popular auctions to raise the price several times.

It ended up at 450000.

When the auctioneer was about to drop the hammer, schurchigina heard a gentle offer from the man beside her: ”500000 pounds.”

Everyone at the scene looked over.

It's Simon westero's first shot.

Of course, we mainly take this opportunity to see people. We don't feel much about Simon westrow's purchase of a piece of jewelry for 500000 pounds. For westrow, is that money?

The auctioneer was also excited.

Big boss always began to support, so raised the tone, try to play up the atmosphere.

It's also a good match.

The card was raised again and 10000 pounds was added.

The auctioneer looked and saw that this was an agent. However, he knew that behind the number plate was Richard Branson, the famous British tycoon and the owner of Virgin Group.

Someone raised the price and Simon called for a second time: ”550000.”

Obviously, it's a must.

I just raised my card to be regarded as a show of support. Now I can't get along with Simon westero. What's more, we all know that someone who raised his card is the owner of this auction house.

So the deal went smoothly.

It directly exceeded the estimated maximum price of 500000 pounds for Diana diamond necklace.

By Simon's side, Shuer higgina quietly grasped the hem of her dress. She just felt that it was too expensive and wasteful.Others are curious whether Simon westrow will make a move on Diana's diamond necklace.

The auction started at 8 p.m. and lasted for two hours.

Princess Diana's diamond necklace came to a close at the end. The starting price was also 250000 pounds. Simon called a price when he held the venue for 400000 pounds, and then he didn't sell it again.

The necklace was eventually taken away by an anonymous buyer for 530000.

At 10 o'clock, the auction is over.

At this time in the past, everyone dispersed. After all, it was a little late.

Tonight's auction is a reminder, followed by a reception.

Before the start of the auction, many people did not quite understand what was going on. Some people thought that Princess Diana might come forward to thank her personally. However, if so, it would be publicized in advance. The auction house did not do so. I didn't understand until I arrived.

It's late at night.

When the reception started, not only no one left, but many more guests came.
