"The chief rudder of overseas Hongmen, Qiu Changfeng?!" Liu Meiqian repeated the name and asked, "Who is this? Is it possible that he is more powerful than the richest man in Huahai?"
"Tch! I'm not bragging. If Chief Qiu comes to Huahai, it will be too late for our richest man in Huahai to curry favor with him!" Zhu Dachang said carelessly.
"Dear, since this Miss Qiu is so powerful, let's go over and say hello and have sex!" Liu Meiqian's eyes were shining, and she was about to stand up.
Seeing this, Zhu Dachang quickly grabbed her and said in a low voice with a grimace: "People of the same kind flock together, and birds of a feather flock together! A young lady of that level is not something we can get close to! Don't talk about me, even my dad.
He’s not even qualified to strike up a conversation! If it were my uncle, he would probably be barely qualified!”
"hiss!"
Hearing this, Liu Meiqian couldn't help but take a breath of air, with a look of surprise on her face.
A wealthy man with a net worth of tens of billions reluctantly went over to say hello. The identity of Miss Qiu must be too extraordinary!
On the other side, although Ye Fan remained calm on the surface, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.
Today, the leader of Huahai Hongyi seems to be Long Tao.
But Long Tao was just a puppet supported by Ye Fan.
Since taking charge of Huahai Hongyi, Ye Fan has also gained a very in-depth understanding of this underground organization.
Hongyi was established in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties and has a very long history.
Although Hongyi originated from China, due to some changes a hundred years ago, the top leaders within Hongyi had huge differences and almost broke up.
One faction stayed in China and gathered all the forces in Huahai City, occupying the territory and becoming king.
The other faction headed to North America with a large group of troops to expand its territory and carve out a world by relying on their tough style of daring to fight and kill.
After several generations of development, Overseas Hongyi has prospered and now has become the world's largest secret society. It has established branches in dozens of countries and hundreds of cities around the world, with hundreds of thousands of members and many masters.
Lots of talent.
Compared with overseas Hongyi, the Yamaguchi family, the largest underground organization in Japan, is like playing house.
Qiu Changfeng is the current chief helmsman of Overseas Hongyi, and he is superior to countless others.
In a sense, the entire Hongyi is like a huge multinational group, and each country's branch is equivalent to a branch.
Qiu Changfeng is the chairman of the board of directors.
However, no matter how overseas Hongyi develops over the years, it has no intention of returning to China.
Now, Qiu Yanmei, the daughter of the overseas Hongmen leader, suddenly appears in Huahai City. This is definitely not an accident.
There must be some unknown secret hidden in it.
Thinking of this, Ye Fan's eyes froze and he secretly decided that after the charity dinner, Long Tao must investigate Qiu Yanmei.
…
Soon, the huge banquet hall was filled with people and all seats were occupied.
The host stepped onto the stage and loudly said:
"Welcome all guests to attend today's charity dinner. Thank you to all the kind people who donated the auction items. All the prices of today's transactions will be donated to the Red Cross Foundation to build schools for students in impoverished mountainous areas! Please tell us about our first
One lot…”
As soon as she finished speaking, the etiquette lady brought a porcelain vase from the Qing Dynasty. After several rounds of bidding, it was sold for 680,000 yuan.
Immediately afterwards, more items were brought up, including precious antiques, jewelry, clocks, paintings by famous artists, etc...
Because it is a charity auction, the transaction prices of the auction items are often a bit higher than the normal market price.
Many children from wealthy families spend large sums of money in order to earn face, appear in front of many celebrities, and gain a good reputation.
Under Miss Liu's coquettish attack, Zhu Dachang couldn't help but bid 200,000 for a diamond brooch as a gift.
Of course, he has decided that he must get his advantage back tonight on Miss Liu's graceful body.
After more than an hour, most of the lots had been successfully sold, with almost no unsold ones.
At this time, the host loudly said: "I believe everyone has watched "Titanic" and is very impressed by the legendary blue diamond 'Heart of the Ocean' in the movie! In fact, the Heart of the Ocean is a bright-colored diamond
The collective name for deep blue diamonds, the one in the movie is named 'Hope', and the grand finale of the auction is another heart of the ocean, named 'Love'!"
The next moment, under the protection of more than a dozen bodyguards, under the spotlight, an old man carefully carried a safe and walked onto the stage.
The old man pressed a series of passwords and finally opened the safe.
Immediately afterwards, a rare treasure appeared in the sight of all the hotels in the audience.
Looking closely, I saw an extremely huge diamond, as big as a tennis ball, lying quietly inside the safe.
When the light shines on the diamond, the blue color on the surface is like the sea water baptized by the sun, showing a sense of mystery and pleasing to the eye.
It is not polished deliberately, but no matter which cross-section you look at, it shows a different luster, just like a treasure given to the world by God.
There are no words to describe its beauty.
In the banquet hall, almost all the women were attracted by this diamond and couldn't move their eyes away.
All the jewelry in the world seems to be incomparable to this blue diamond.
…
At this time, the host introduced: "Dear guests, this heart of the ocean blue diamond named 'Love' symbolizes undying love! Its original owner is the king of a principality in Europe. This
A king once promised his princess that he would find the most beautiful diamond in the world and give it to her! Unexpectedly, God was jealous of the beauty, and the princess died unexpectedly due to a car accident. The king was heartbroken and spent more than ten years with all the efforts of the country to get the diamond.
I found this blue diamond to commemorate the princess!"
Having said this, the host paused, glanced at the audience, and continued: "Everyone, the starting price of this 'Love' blue diamond is US$100 million!"
"boom!"
This astonishing number was like a huge boulder smashing into calm water, causing thousands of waves and causing an uproar in the venue.
One hundred million U.S. dollars, converted into Chinese currency, would be nearly 700 million U.S. dollars!
Although the guests who came to attend the charity dinner were all of extraordinary worth, the figure of 700 million was still too exaggerated.
It may be difficult for a rich man worth tens of billions to spend 700 million in cash at once.
Even if you really have that kind of financial resources, you may not spend so much money to buy a diamond.
At this time, Ye Fan noticed that Chu Mengyao beside him was staring at the blue diamond intently, and he couldn't help but said: "Mengyao, this blue diamond is good, it matches your temperament very well, if you like it, why don't you buy it from me?
I’ll send it to you next time!”
Ye Fan's tone was not only firm, but as if as long as Chu Mengyao nodded, he would immediately bid for it.
He did not lower his voice intentionally, and Zhu Dachang and Liu Meiqian next to him could hear it clearly.
"Hmph!" Zhu Dachang sneered and said, "I've seen people who can show off, but I've never seen anyone show off like this! This is 100 million US dollars, not a dollar!"
In Zhu Dachang's opinion, how could Ye Fan afford this "love" blue diamond when his entire outfit cost less than 100 yuan?
Seeing this, Chu Mengyao opened her red lips slightly, wanting to say something.
At this moment, a magnetic female voice came from a private room on the top floor:
"A billion dollars!"
As soon as this statement came out, the whole audience was shocked.
Even the host on the stage trembled with fright and said tremblingly: "Miss Qiu Yanmei in the box bids ten...billion dollars. Are you serious?"
"certainly!"
The female voice echoed throughout the audience through the loudspeaker.
Because the box was on the second floor, the hundreds of spectators in the banquet hall on the first floor could not see Qiu Yanmei at all.
And their hearts were filled with huge waves of confusion.
One billion US dollars is equivalent to seven billion Chinese coins!
The market value of a multinational group is no more than this.
What's more, the starting price of this blue diamond was only 100 million US dollars, and Qiu Yanmei suddenly raised the price tenfold. How stupid is this person?
At this moment, Qiu Yanmei's voice resounded throughout the audience again: "The reason why I paid one billion yuan is because in my heart, this blue diamond symbolizes undying love, which is worth one billion yuan!
Diamonds have a price, but love is priceless!”
"Pah, pah, pah, pah!!!!"
After hearing her words, all the audience in the audience applauded and cheered for her.
Zhu Dachang also sighed: "As expected of the eldest lady of the enemy family, she is really generous! From this point of view, this blue diamond is in her bag! If she wants this diamond, even the richest man in Huahai has to give her face, no
Dare to fight with her!"
At this moment, a sudden young male voice sounded throughout the audience:
