Enchanted By His Charm

Irish took a good lesson, nodding repeatedly, and she had to say this pair of earrings was really beautiful.

The Blossom's pigeon blood ruby earrings started at $1 million, with a price increase of 500 thousand each time. Soon someone offered a low price, followed by another fixed price. When the earrings finally reached $2.5 million, Irish thought it was going to be done, not expecting the first bidder to raise it to $3 million. Finally, she won the pair of pigeon bloodstones.

Irish was surprised, subconsciously, to find the bidder, who looked smart. Irish leaned forward to Joseph's ear and whispered, "Who is that woman? She's so rich."

"The money is not hers but her boss." She liked the closeness, and his tone was softer. "The real bidder is Sid. The woman is just his assistant."

Irish was shocked. She had heard of Sid, not expecting him to participate in the auction.

When she was thinking, the bracelet of the Blossom inlaid with the Kashmir jewel was launched, its deep blue color displayed on the screens.

"What is this?"

"This is a sapphire mined from Kashmir because the resource in this area is scarce, so it has been only 20 years since they stopped mining, and it is conceivable that there are very few blue treasures like this on the market. This jewel is acclaimed as 'bluebonnet', which is the best sapphire. Seen from the side, it presents a hazy purplish-blue, like the cornflower's color written by Andersen, illusory but pure." Joseph whispered.

"How did you get such rare jewels? Aren't they all purchased?" Irish was puzzled.

Joseph smiled at her. "It was obtained by my father, who had been traveling between foreign mining factories and had been held in the hand of a collector from abroad. When he got it, it was still a stone. Now, it has been carved into a rare piece of masterwork."

"These days, people with fortunes become richer." Irish closed her lips slightly.

As soon as Joseph wanted to continue, someone under the stage made a bid. Irish turned her head, and it turned out to be Jean, who offered $1.8 million. Some people naturally went up with the price, but he looked as if he was going to get this bracelet. At the end of the auction, he obtained the sapphire for a price of 3.8 million dollars.

A precious stone was nothing without humanity's definition of its value. When a small stone was pursued by people, its price kept rising. When no one was chasing it, it was like a roadside pebble, and no one would be interested in it.

"Why did he want the bracelet?"

Joseph adjusted his sitting posture. "In the eyes of the Persians, the earth is supported by a huge sapphire, and the reflection of the sapphire makes the sky blue, so the cornflower blue treasure has always been known as the Destiny Stone, which brings the wearer good health and peace and the power to love and be loved." He looked at the stage and thought, "he bought it for his wife, who is in poor health. That is also a hope. Besides, it is said that his wife's favorite accessory is the bracelet. He has collected a lot of rare bracelets from all over the world for her. "

Irish couldn't help but sigh. "His wife is really happy."

Joseph turned his head and looked at her with a touch of tenderness on his brows.

"Suddenly, I realized something." She said, "Jean and you know each other, then Sid is also privately acquainted with you, right?"

"Of course."

"So can I think that all the ornaments in the Blossom collection will fall into the hands of your own people? The auction is just a formality?"

"Should I praise your cleverness or sigh at your rich association?" Joseph asked.

"It depends on who gets the green diamond." Irish laughed.

The color of the green diamond is the result of collisions of gemstones and radiation, which is rarely produced and appears only in Golconda, India, and Xinjiang, China. Natural green diamonds took millions of years to form, and most green diamonds were exposed to uranium mixtures or alpha particles in the groundwater. Alpha particles turned the diamond's surface green, but if the diamond was exposed to both beta and gamma rays, the diamond would take on a darker green color.

So only a small fraction of diamonds turned into pure green, and this small portion became a treasure that many national celebrities, wealthy businessmen, collectors, and appraisers wanted to have.

Just like the low price of 10 million given at the beginning, it was natural that someone would follow the price. It was a white-bearded foreign man, elegant and mysterious-looking. Irish nudged Joseph, signaling him to have a look.

Joseph took a look. "He is the leader of Delerstein's Green Treasure, which was once famous for buying a 41-carat pear-shaped green diamond, which is the largest green diamond in the world."

"It looks like someone is going to cut off your finances." Irish smiled. This green treasure had been peeped, and it could see they were prepared to come.

"You think too much," He said.

Irish didn't make a comment.

Soon the price was raised again, and for a moment, the green diamond became the center of attention.

The old man with a white beard raised the price to 13 million.

For a moment, the whole venue was full of sighs.

Irish turned her head and looked at Joseph, nudging him. "Hey, your treasure is going to belong to others."

Joseph looked into her eyes and said softly, "My treasure was never the jewel."

A little surprised to hear that, Irish was about to ask, only to hear someone suddenly say, "I bid 15 million."

Such generosity shocked the audience, who were looking for the sound source. Irish also followed the sound, and she suddenly widened her eyes. It turned out to be Leo, who had just come there. He was very casual, dressed in old jeans, canvas shoes, an open gray coat, and his hands in his pockets, chewing gum and going down the steps.
