Chapter 434 Sorry, I bought the Heart of the Ocean as a gift.
After the host finished speaking, there was a burst of warm applause.
There are many rich people present today. Everyone heard that there are rare treasures, and they are eager to try them.
Among these rich people, the most powerful is Cobert of the Rockefeller family.
He had just lost face in front of everyone, and he urgently needed to regain his face and prove his financial strength.
I saw the auction staff carefully carrying up a box wrapped in red cloth.
Oprah opened her mouth and introduced:
"The next auction is for the first treasure of this exhibition, a rare treasure salvaged from the sunken Titanic - the Heart of the Ocean!"
As soon as Opora finished speaking, the entire exhibition suddenly became silent, and everyone's eyes were focused on the auction stage.
The auctioneer picked up a transparent crystal glass cover, inside which lay a blue gemstone. It shone mysteriously under the light, as if it contained endless ocean secrets.
"This Heart of the Ocean is the only blue diamond salvaged from the sunken Titanic. It weighs an astonishing twenty-five carats, is pure and transparent, and has a rare deep blue color."
"The value of this diamond lies not only in its rarity and beauty, but also in its historical significance. It is a witness to the sinking of the Titanic and is also part of the history of the ocean."
Oprah explained in detail.
The atmosphere at the scene became increasingly tense, with people staring intently at the bright heart of the ocean.
It seems to be responding to people's gaze, emitting a more brilliant light.
"Well, dear bidders, the starting price for this precious Heart of the Ocean is US$100 million. Please start bidding now!"
Oprah announced loudly.
"I'll offer you $120 million!"
"One hundred and forty million!"
Before he finished speaking, the bidding sounds started one after another in the audience.
It can be seen that this heart of the ocean is very valuable!
"I'll pay you $200 million!"
Colbert raised the bidding sign with a very disdainful expression.
Such a high price made everyone whisper:
"As expected of the young master of the Rockefeller Group, he is so generous!"
"Two hundred million is so rich. It's even comparable to the market value of our company!"
"Tsk, tsk, it's so irritating that people are so different from each other. I will spend 200 million to buy a luxury house and a yacht, but I won't buy a stone."
Everyone in the audience had different opinions, and all of them expressed envy.
At this time, Lin Fei saw Hathaway next to him, staring closely at Ocean Heart on the stage.
"What, you like it?"
Hathaway nodded:
"Yes, that's the heart of the ocean! What woman doesn't like it?"
Lin Fei said casually:
"If you like it, I'll buy it for you."
Then Lin Fei raised the bidding sign and said:
"I'll offer you $300 million!"
As soon as these words came out, they instantly attracted the attention of the whole audience.
"Three hundred million? Are you crazy!"
"Who is so rich?"
Everyone looked at Lin Fei, and it turned out to be the oriental man who had embarrassed Colbert just now.
"I'll go! Is he so rich?"
"This man looks quite young. What is his identity?"
When Colbert saw Lin Fei bidding against him, he was so angry that his back molars almost broke!
"Damn guy, are you trying to get in trouble with me?"
Colbert gritted his teeth and raised his bidding sign:
"I'll pay 310 million!"
He did not dare to add more. Although the Rockefeller Group was not short of money, it would not spend so much money.
After all, no one's money comes from the strong wind, except Lin Fei.
"I'll offer you $400 million!"
Lin Fei didn't want to talk nonsense to Colbert. To him, money was just a number. If it wasn't enough, he could just exchange it with attribute points.
After all, there are still hundreds of thousands of useless attribute points in the background of the system.
"You...Made, I will pay 410 million!"
The original price of Heart of the Ocean was 100 million, but the price was suddenly raised to 400 million.
Even celebrities from all walks of life in Los Santos have never seen such a scene.
"Five billion!"
Lin Fei didn't even raise his eyelids, as if he spent only five yuan instead of five hundred million US dollars.
The whole place was shocked!
Even Oprah's voice trembled a little when she spoke:
"$500 million once! $500 million twice! $500 million three times! Deal!"
Lin Fei said lightly:
"Please wrap it up. I want to give this Heart of the Ocean to the beautiful Miss Hathaway."
"ohmygod!"
"Lin...Lin Fei, do you really want to give it to me? This is the heart of the ocean!"
It was obvious that Hathaway's tone of voice was trembling.
"Of course, just accept it."
Hathaway hugged Lin Fei excitedly:
"You are so kind to me Lin Fei, I don't even know how to repay you!"
[Ding, Hathaway’s worship value +3, current worship value: 83]
So some superior Hathaway gave Lin Feixiang a kiss.
Colbert, who saw this scene not far away, was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
f**k!
You really treat people like dogs!
Showing affection in public!
And Lin Fei casually spent 500 million US dollars just to make the beauty smile.
In this way, the judgment is made.
Then several treasures were auctioned, including Van Gogh's self-portrait, headdresses unearthed from ancient tombs, and ancient Chinese porcelain.
But Lin Fei wasn't even interested.
But one of the auction paintings caught Lin Fei's attention. On the surface, it looked like an ordinary landscape painting, and it didn't even have a signature.
However, when the auctioneer showed it, Lin Fei saw the clue. It was a double-layered painting.
There is another painting under this painting. This is also a method of protection adopted by some painters to prevent their paintings from being vandalized.
Lin Fei, who has acquired top-notch painting skills, is naturally very familiar with this kind of protection technique.
Of course, this painting was also very cheap to take, costing only $50.
Seeing that Lin Fei spent 50 yuan on such a shabby photo, Colbert couldn't help but laughed:
"You are really stupid and have too much money. I don't want this thing as a gift!"
However, after Lin Fei paid the bidding fee, he went directly to the stage and carefully cut along the sideline with a knife.
A painting of flowers and birds by Tang Yin suddenly appeared in front of everyone!
According to estimates from the auction items, this painting is worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars!
In other words, not only did Lin Fei spend nothing to buy Heart of the Ocean, but he might also have made a profit?
There was a burst of thunderous applause from the audience, and everyone admired Lin Fei's ability to identify treasures.
"Ahhh! Damn it! I must kill him!"
Seeing Lin Fei stealing the show, Colbert gritted his teeth and said.
The auction ended soon, and Lin Fei and Hathaway stayed at the hotel provided by the venue organizer at night.
His room is 1405 and Hathaway's is 1406.
Shangguan Jiebei had already found out and lurked in secretly.
Just wait for Lin Fei to come in, and work together with his master Bai Muxian to kill him.
"Room 1405, right? Got it!"
At this time, Ares also came to the door of room 1405.
After cracking the combination lock, he quietly reached in.
At this time, Shangguan Jiebei saw the dark figure coming in from outside the door. He couldn't help but pick up the knife and kill him...
