Chapter 195 – “Be careful next time.” (2)
After she had shown her invitation, she entered into the venue without further ado accompanied by Jiang DeXian. She and Jiang DeXian were a beauty with a handsome man. The two of them, at the venue, made a nice scenery. Fang JunRong even saw a few foreigners at the venue.
The worker took them to check out the materials for this auction first. There were two batches during this auction – a concealed batch and an open batch. Concealed ones one could not see the jadeite inside. It was a true test of one’s skill and luck. The opened ones had many openings that allowed one to see inside the raw material.
Many of the bosses brought experts with them and all of them pointed at the raw materials and were analyzing them.
Fang JunRong, who only had her assistant with her, was certainly a rarity. Given Jiang DeXian’s look, nobody would think that he was an expert in this area. This field, after all, was a test of both skill and experience.
Fang JunRong had her reasons for not bringing an expert with her. There was mystical qinaturally in jade and gems. The purer they are, the more filled with mystical qithey were. She could more or less be able to sense the mystical air under the influence of her jadeite dimension.
All she needed to do was to buy the few that radiated sufficient mystical qi. She had no shortage of money and had set aside sufficient for this auction ahead of time.
She walked around the place and made a note on a few of the raw materials. It was not her intention to purchase all of the good ones. As the saying goes, when one eats meat, one should still save some soup for the others. Besides, the cheapest one of them cost 500,000 yuan. It was a lot of money even for her had she wanted to purchase all of them.
After she had finished jotting down her notes, she turned to ask Jiang DeXian, “See anything that you like?”
Jiang DeXian pointed at a few of them. “These few should be alright. Perhaps I will buy the cheapest one of them to try my luck.”
Fang JunRong was a bit surprised. The ones that he had pointed at overlapped greatly with the ones that she had jotted down. She had the dimension but he relied purely on his luck.
That was some luck that he had!
She nodded. “You can trye one.” He had taken 50 million yuan from Zhang ZhiYang a while back and had no shortage of money.
The two chatted relaxingly as they browsed through all of the auction items.
She ran into General Manager of the Geng’s Jewelers. He, too, was here to purchase raw material today. His plan, however, was to wait for others to purchase them in the auction first, retrieve the gems inside, then buy from them. That was, in fact, the plan of most jewelers there today.
Manager Leng said to her, “Your biggest opponent today was probably Duchess Capet of Country X.”
Fang JunRong changed colors slightly. Duchess Capet was on the list of world’s wealthiest people. It was rumored that her net worth was over hundreds of billions. She belonged to one of the oldest family of Country X and she was the sole heir of her generation.
Fang JunRong tallied up her net worth: and for sure she was no match of Duchess Capet. That being said, that may change 10 years from now.
Manager Leng said, “This Duchess had been trying a new beautifying regime as of late which required her to grind up gems into powder and applied them to her face and hair. As such, she has been traveling the world purchasing raw gems.”
The sound of that made Fang JunRong’s lips twitched. That was probably the epitome of wastefulness!
