Chapter 1078 Host(2/2)
"Uh-huh..." After a slightly awkward silence, the organizer cleared his throat and spoke again, "Ladies and gentlemen..."
His words made those who still despised Brother Brother look back.
"Welcome to Song of Songs." When the organizer said this, there was no eagerness. There was a faint chill in his tone. "I am the organizer of this banquet. You can just call me 'host'."
That’s fine.”
He paused for two seconds, looked at the reaction of the crowd below, and then said: "You are all smart people. I will save you those false feelings and beating around the bush..."
He was not someone who would say that kind of thing...because "hypocrisy" and "beating around the bush" are rhetorical techniques that people use when they want something from others. And this organizer had almost no chance to say anything.
Such words.
"I'll just talk about the parts that interest you..."
When the organizer said this, eight men in suits appeared silently on both sides of him, four on each side, standing side by side.
Each man in a suit holds an object covered by white cloth in his hand. Looking at the outline... there should be some kind of rectangular object under the white cloth, with a side length of about thirty centimeters.
"Haha..." After waiting for a few seconds, the organizer sneered, "Allow me to introduce to you the prizes for tonight's 'game'."
Before he finished speaking, the men in suits each took off the white cloth on the object they were holding.
Under the white cloth... without exception, there are small glass cabinets.
The bottom of those cabinets is made of metal, and the base is covered with a rectangular glass cover, and what is stored inside the cabinet is...
"I'll start from my left hand side... and introduce you one by one." The organizer just glanced left and right, confirmed the position and order of those things, and then no longer turned his head, but kept looking down.
The gestures of the crowd below are narrated...
"First, 'Red Tears', one of the most famous natural red diamonds in the world, was stolen from a collector's home in 2040 and has been missing since. The market value at the time of the last valuation... was approximately
$6 million."
"Second, 'Firefly' is nothing special, just a perfect cat's eye stone with a market value of about US$5 million."
"Third, 'Fragrance' is a funerary object excavated from the royal jewelry of a certain European country. Legend has it that it will bring bad luck to the woman who wears it, causing her to lose her fragrance within a few years. Moreover, every deceased person,
Everyone will die in a place with a strange smell. The last time 'Fragrance' appeared on the auction market, it was sold for US$12 million."
"Fourth, 'Lover', is one of the largest diamonds in the world produced in Myanmar. It was first discovered in the 19th century. The original stone was cut into two pieces because it was too huge. It was cut into two pieces by two skilled Italian craftsmen.
The hand is born.”
"Fifth, 'Lover', this is the sister stone to the one just now. The individual market value of these two diamonds is about 5 million US dollars."
"Sixth, the 'Dashmere Pink Diamond', originally belonged to a well-known actress in the 20th century. In 1968, she was murdered in the living room of her home, and the only one stolen from her mansion that day was
The thing was this diamond. A year before she was killed, she bought this diamond for US$180,000. I think everyone knows about inflation. US$180,000 at that time was equivalent to what it is now.
You should be able to calculate the money quickly."
"The seventh, 'Crown', was a series of competition prizes held by a game company in the United States in 1982. It was made of pure gold and embellished with diamonds, rubies, sapphires and aquamarines. Due to the collapse of the U.S. game industry in 1983, the
The competition game related to the prize only had a limited release and failed to reach the finals. The whereabouts of the 'Crown' were unknown in the same year. The valuation of the item at that time was twenty-five thousand US dollars. Again, accounting for inflation,
Coupled with its background story, the market value is now at least US$4 million."
"Finally..." When talking about the last item, the organizer paused, glanced at the cabinet, and then said, "'Heart of the Ocean'."
He only said these four words about this gem.
For this gem, he only needs to say these four words...
There is no one here who doesn’t know the story of the Heart of the Ocean, and no one will value this gem.
"Well... as long as we get 'that'..." When the crowd in the main hall looked up at those priceless gems in a daze, Feng Bujue was unmoved. He only cared about... his trip.
It’s just a “goal”.
"Okay, I think you all have an idea of the value of this prize." After another pause for a few seconds, the organizer continued, "There is no doubt that any one of these jewelry is enough to get you out of the current situation.
dilemma.
"As long as you win the 'game', you can choose one to take away.
