C31

Xia Tian saw everyone's surprised look on their faces, but he did not take it to heart. In order to prevent them from talking about the matter of the tearstains, he changed the topic and asked Tong Lin: "Uncle Tong, how are you handling my diamonds? Can it be auctioned the day after tomorrow? "

Tong Lin also knew that Xia Tian had changed the topic, but when he saw that Xia Tian had asked enough, he quickly said: "Xia Tian, I have already entrusted all of your diamonds to the Christie's Auction House. They might be doing some advertising right now, wanting more people to attend the auction, so the Christie's Auction House's initial estimate for those diamonds is five hundred million USD, however, when it comes to the official auction, we will know the highest price."

Right now it was only an initial estimate, then at the time of the auction, it would definitely not be less than less than seven hundred to eight hundred million dollars. Xia Tian no longer had any concept of money, but who would complain about having too much?

Xia Tian said: Uncle Tong, you handle this matter properly. On the day of the auction, I will go take a look.

Tong Lin said: "Alright, when the time comes, I will bring you along."

At this time, Tong Sen looked at Xia Tian for a while, and said: "Xia Tian, you're already so rich, why are you still thinking of buying those diamonds? What do you want so much money for? "

Tong Sen looked at the puzzled looks on everyone's faces and knew that they did not know about the things that happened in Las Vegas. Thus, he said: "You guys probably don't know, but this afternoon, Xia Tian won close to $6 billion at Las Vegas. Tell me, how long do you think it will take for us to earn such a huge sum of money?

When everyone heard Tong Sen's words, they were shocked once again. They were thinking, how many more secrets does this Xia Tian have that no one knows? Was it luck or was it? No one could understand.

Xia Tian sighed secretly, and said: "Uncle Tong, I want to use this money to start some companies, after all, our country's current development is relatively behind, if you really want to develop, this money can only be enough for me to make a starting fund, is it still far from what I want?"

Tong Lin said: Xia Tian, what kind of company do you want to start? With so many funds, is there anything we can help you with?

Xia Tian thought for a while, then said: "Uncle Tong, thank you, but, at the moment, I have not decided what to do, it is just my thoughts, and it is not ripe yet, but you will know when the time comes." didn't want others to know that he was the one who started the company, because he only wanted to be the boss behind the scenes and didn't want to appear on the surface. Thus, he didn't want to tell Tong Lin and the others right now.

Tong Tian said at this time: "Xia Tian, since you don't want to reveal it now, we won't ask. However, if you have any difficulties, you must come find us.

Listening to Tian Tong Tian's words, Xia Tian felt a little embarrassed and said: "Grandpa Tong, I, Xia Tian, will first thank you guys. If there is a problem, I will definitely look for you guys. After Xia Tian finished speaking, he laughed.

Although Xia Tian was only joking, everyone still started laughing. After that, Xia Tian and the elders from the Tong Family began chatting with each other, talking about Xia Tian's taste in clothes. Tong Lin had to get the clothing designer from the Tong Family to customize it for him, and had even told him that the first set of clothes would come out tomorrow night.

Maybe everyone knew that Xia Tian would be at the top of his career in the future, so they wanted him to learn some aristocratic ceremonies, pianos, dances, wine tasting, and many other tricks to explain to them the situation of the powers in this world. Xia Tian didn't want to ruin the crowd's enthusiasm, so he also happily agreed. This was also what he wanted to learn and understand.

On the second day, Tong Lin called for a judge, a pianist, and other teachers to come over. More than ten teachers lined up to train Xia Tian, but luckily he was strong, otherwise, he would be tortured to death by all aspects of these experts. After a single day, Xia Tian was so tired that he was half dead. He laid on the sofa, not wanting to move at all.

During the training that Xia Tian was given today, all the experts called him a genius once, and he would be able to remember whatever it was that they had to say once. As long as they did it once, Xia Tian would learn it, and even if he did not know it occasionally, Xia Tian would be able to learn it or comprehend it on his second try. If Xia Tian didn't run so fast, they would have wanted to cut off Xia Tian's head and see what it was made of.

It was not that he did not want to use energy to eliminate his fatigue, it was just that he really wanted to sleep for a long time. After all, he had not slept for that long a time, so being able to sleep for a while now, he felt that it was more effective than using energy to remove his fatigue.

After finishing his breakfast, Tong Lin held out a set of clothes to Xia Tian, indicating him to go and change. Xia Tian took the clothes and returned to his room. After a while, Xia Tian walked out of his room, and everyone's eyes lit up, they almost did not recognize him.

The current Xia Tian was filled with elegance, sunshine, handsomeness, black eyes and a face brimming with evil. He wore a casual suit that accentuated his tall and straight figure.

Tong Lin circled around Xia Tian and said: "Not bad, not bad. Xia Tian, once you go out, I wonder how many innocent girls you will bewitch. You need to keep a lower profile in the future, if not, those girls would all jump off the building together."

Xia Tian could not agree to Tong Lin's words, and said: "Uncle Tong, don't make fun of me, right, let's go to the auction house now, when are we leaving?"

Tong Lin said: "We are now waiting for you. Let's go, we will set off now."

Xia Tian rode on Tong Lin's luxurious commercial car and arrived at the center of the New York Auction House, and the group of them alighted from the car and directly entered the auction house through the VIP entrance. The auction house had its own VIP room, Tong Tian, Tong Sen, Tong Lin, Tong, Aunt Tong and Xia Tian.

Looking outside through the window, Xia Tian sighed inwardly. As expected of the New York Auction House, the spacious hall was not a problem for over a thousand people, the first two rows were ordinary VIP seats, and the second floor was a VIP room. This was arranged for super rich people with status and status, the entire Auction House could even be described as dazzling with golden light. However, its entry fee was also sky-high. Ordinary people's entry fee was $10,000, while regular VIPs were $50,000. High-grade VIPs didn't need this, because the auction houses mainly relied on these super rich people to make money.

Xia Tian and the others waited in the VIP lounge for a while, when they saw the head auctioneer walk out, he bowed towards the distinguished guests and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, good morning to you all. Welcome to our Gadus Auction House, I am Anny, the head auctioneer of Gadus Auction House."

Anny had just finished speaking, when the crowd below the stage started to clamor. It was unknown what sort of treasure this time around that would require the presence of the senior auctioneer of the Gadus Auction House. Before this, he would not normally reveal himself, so it could be seen how important this event was.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please calm down. I believe you will not be disappointed when I show up. Now, let's keep it mysterious. The auction officially begins." Anny stood on stage and said loudly.

Gadus Auction House did not spread the news about the diamonds. Because there were only three of them, only a few people knew about them and used a mysterious treasure to publicize them. However, this mystery was enough to attract the rich, because they knew that the more mysterious a thing was, the more attractive it was.

"Our first item is a landscape oil painting from the 18th century. It has a very high collection value, and in the past, this oil painting was always kept by a collector. Now that he has sent it out for auction, our friends will know where it came from. "The starting price of this painting is 100 thousand dollars, and each increment must be no less than 10,000 dollars. Please start bidding."

Anny was indeed worthy of being the chief auctioneer of the Gadus Auction House.

Number 55: "110 thousand US dollars."

Number 68: "120 thousand US dollars."

Number 95: "150 thousand US dollars."

Number 266: "180 thousand US dollars."

"..."

In just a minute, the price had risen to $250 thousand, and that was the 22nd ordinary VIP. At the back, there were less and less people shouting, but someone still shouted out a high price of $300 thousand, and no one would follow anymore, because if they followed any further, it would surpass the value of the landscape painting, and it wouldn't be worth it.

Anny saw that no one said anything, and said: "300 thousand dollars, are there any higher ups, are there any higher ups? If not, this landscape painting will belong to VIP number 15, 300 thousand going once, 300 thousand going twice, 300 thousand going thrice, okay, deal." Everyone only heard the hammer that Anny used to make a "pa" sound as he said once again, "Congratulations guest # 15, you have finally gotten what you wanted and obtained today's first auction item."
