The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor -
Chapter 531 - 531 502 Valuation
531: Chapter 502: Valuation 531: Chapter 502: Valuation “Number Three began speaking about the properties and flaws of the bracelet in his hand, made of Nephrite Jade, which is emerald green…” Number Three stood up and began introducing the bracelet he was holding to the crowd.
After he finished, Zhu Jin asked Number Three, “So, Number Three, please give us your closest estimate of this bracelet’s value.”
“I think it should be around three hundred thousand,” Number Three tentatively answered.
Zhu Jin looked at the note in his hand, found the price given by the owner of the Jade Bracelet, and said with a smile, “The owner of the Jade Bracelet is Number Seventy-nine, she has set the price of this Jade Bracelet at five hundred and ten thousand!
The difference between you two is two hundred and ten thousand!
If your partner can reduce the gap in your quoted price, you still have a good chance.”
As teams competed one by one, the closest group had a difference of eighty thousand, while the farthest group had a whopping one million seven hundred thousand.
“Next, would Number Seven please evaluate the pros and cons of your item and give your estimation,” said Zhu Jin to Liu Hun.
Liu Hun slowly stood up with Sun Guangyao’s item in hand and said, “This Rolex Yacht Master is a classic piece from the Rolex brand, understated yet luxurious, and quite rare domestically not because it isn’t well-known, but because it lacks the brilliance of gold; however, the encircling platinum greatly increases its value, and I find nothing to criticize about this watch.”
Zhu Jin silently admired Liu Hun and said to him, “Then, Number Seven, please give us your own estimate.”
“Two million three hundred thousand,” Liu Hun stated his appraisal.
Zhu Jin immediately rifled through the notes in his hand, then smiled slightly and announced, “Congratulations to Number Seven, your quote is very close, two million three hundred and ten thousand, only differing by ten thousand!
This is currently the best result.
However, we still have to see your partner!”
In this little game test, a partner could either be a life-saving firefighter helping one to victory, or a deadweight dragging one down.
After Liu Hun finished, Shi Qing’er stood up.
Although she really disliked Kong Zhen’s item, she still very much wanted to win, so she picked up Kong Zhen’s ring and said, “This ring is from Louis Vuitton’s first jewelry collection ‘Emprise’, designed by the famous jewelry designer Mark Jacobs, exquisitely shaped and with beautiful diamonds set in it.
But engraving some nonsensical words on it has ruined it!
That’s my review!”
Kong Zhen, hearing this, was infuriated to the point of itching teeth; she hadn’t expected Shi Qing’er, the girl who had nonsensically engraved, to dare mock her for engraving her own name.
“Then, Number Eight, please give us the price of this item!” said Zhu Jin to Shi Qing’er.
Shi Qing’er thought for a moment, as she seemed to remember something mentioned in a magazine, “It should be…
one hundred thousand, I guess!”
Zhu Jin had prepared the note long ago and immediately pulled it out to read, “The owner of this ring set the price at…
one hundred and fifty thousand!”
“Ha!
How could she dare write one hundred and fifty thousand!
It’s almost one and a half times as much!
Really!” Shi Qing’er could not hold back her disdain for Kong Zhen’s vain behavior.
Worried that the already antagonistic parties might start quarreling again, Zhu Jin quickly intervened, “Our Taster has given each item a pricing range, and one hundred and fifty thousand is indeed the upper limit, but it doesn’t exceed it.”
Hearing this, Shi Qing’er reluctantly sat down, feeling very aggrieved.
Seeing that Shi Qing’er didn’t continue to pursue the matter, Zhu Jin was relieved and promptly continued, “Next, would Number Thirty-six please critique the merits and flaws of the item in your hands.”
Kong Zhen slowly stood up, one hand on her hip, and truly felt like an international supermodel as she struck several poses before saying, “The only merit of this diamond necklace is that the diamonds are real and worth the money for a few diamonds.
The flaws are numerous, and the biggest flaw is that this show-off item shouldn’t copy others by engraving nonsense.”
If Liu Hun hadn’t held Shi Qing’er back, she would have already charged over to practice Taekwondo by now.
“So…
please would Number Thirty-six give your appraisal of this diamond necklace,” Zhu Jin quickly interrupted Kong Zhen.
“Ha!
This diamond necklace might have many diamonds, but they’re so small and not worth much,” said Kong Zhen, showing just the tip of her little fingernail as she added, “Moreover, the biggest blunder was engraving nonsense!
What even is ‘Qing Love’?
And who knows which little workshop it came from, one million two hundred thousand!
That’s that!”
Shi Qing’er was almost vomiting blood in anger, as she thought the names she had come up with were very artistic, but here they were being ridiculed by a hateful and ignorant woman, and she was very upset.
“Cough…
This, the owner of this diamond necklace set a price of forty-three million,” Zhu Jin announced, surprising even himself.
If he hadn’t seen Liu Hun burying someone with money earlier, he wouldn’t have dared to believe it.
“Wow!
My God, a necklace worth forty-three million is enough to feed me for a lifetime.
I didn’t expect Shi Qing’er to dare wear it out on the streets!
It’d be very upsetting if it were stolen!”
“I never thought it would be worth so much money, I wish I could have held it and seen it up close!
It looks so luxurious from a distance, my eyes are almost sparkling.”
“Liu Hun is so rich!
So willing to spend on women!
Being his woman must be great, Shi Qing’er is so lucky!”
“…”
“What!
This piece of junk!
A small workshop product worth forty-three million?!
Are you kidding?!” Kong Zhen heard the number and almost wanted to throw the diamond necklace in her hand on the ground.
Now it was Shi Qing’er’s turn to provocatively roll her eyes at Kong Zhen, her pretty face full of the words “You don’t understand!”
“This diamond necklace was appraised by a Taster, it’s a unique special edition from Cartier’s anniversary celebration, and it was engraved by Cartier’s top jewelry master!
The auction price was indeed forty-three million, there are records available for verification.” Zhu Jin told Kong Zhen, these top-level auctions, as long as they are public, have records that can be checked.
“Humph!
**** luck is really good!” Kong Zhen sat down resentfully, no longer daring to throw away the diamond necklace in her hand.
It had a clear price tag, and if she really had to compensate, she couldn’t afford it.
“Ha ha!
Poker-faced guy, look at that annoying woman’s expression, see if her nose isn’t crooked from anger?
So satisfying!” Shi Qing’er said gleefully.
The biggest price gap at the scene was set by the diamond necklace Shi Qing’er had.
Such a gap couldn’t be filled by Kong Zhen and Sun Guangyao no matter what, but they had to go through the motion.
So Zhu Jin continued, “Please, number thirty-seven, appraise the quality of the jewelry you hold.”
“This Vacheron Constantin watch is very delicately made and low-key.
All in all…
except for the person wearing it, I don’t think it has any flaws,” Sun Guangyao told Zhu Jin, really not wanting to praise Liu Hun’s item.
“Then please, number thirty, value this watch.” Zhu Jin told Sun Guangyao, he really wanted to send this pair off, to avoid further friction with Liu Hun.
He didn’t think much of Sun Guangyao but dared not offend him.
“This Vacheron Constantin watch is nine hundred and thirteen thousand.” Sun Guangyao gave a precise number.
Everyone around was shocked, not expecting Sun Guangyao to give such an exact price, while Kong Zhen seemed indifferent by then, only thinking about leaving soon and not wanting to see Shi Qing’er act arrogant in front of her anymore.
“This Sun something is a big fool!
Looking all confident, and he even guessed a precise number.” Shi Qing’er said, grinning.
“This…
spot on!
Just…
just nine hundred and thirteen thousand!” Zhu Jin was even more shocked, barely able to believe his jaw wasn’t dropping.
He hadn’t expected Sun Guangyao to dare to guess, let alone get it exactly right.
“Poker-faced guy!
You actually wrote nine hundred and thirteen thousand?” Shi Qing’er asked Liu Hun, not believing the man could be so stubborn.
“Yeah, of course, I write what it costs.
Maybe he has the same model in his hand too,” Liu Hun told Shi Qing’er, with utterly no extra expression, thinking it unlikely that Sun Guangyao would fancy the same watch.
Liu Hun had actually guessed right; Sun Guangyao didn’t fancy this watch at all.
This low-key model was nearly indistinguishable from the top ten similar watches sold on street stalls, but his guess was spot on because his father, who had similar tastes to Liu Hun, had a favorite watch just like this one—so he inadvertently snagged a great deal today.
“Ah!
My dear!
You’re amazing!
I’ll take good care of you tonight, you can play whatever you want!
We definitely need to enjoy ourselves today!
And let’s hit that annoying pair hard, reclaim our scene,” Kong Zhen said, excitedly giving Sun Guangyao a passionate kiss.
Ah!
To think he guessed it right just like that, I’m only left anxious!
Zhu Jin thought to himself, waiting for the two to finish their intimacy, then smilingly announced, “Congratulations, number thirty-six!
Number thirty-seven!
You can go directly through this rose wall!”
Kong Zhen strutted like a proud peacock, her eyes almost reaching the top of her head, twisting her dry butt across the rose wall gate with Sun Guangyao by her hand.
“Next up, number seven!
Number eight!
And…” Zhu Jin announced, calling out the five groups with the smallest valuation differences, including Liu Hun, Shi Qing’er, Sun Guangyao, and Kong Zhen, forming a total of ten people moving on to the next round.
When the ten people crossed the gate of the rose wall, they found the scene inside had drastically changed.
There were no plants or flowers, no sofas or chairs, just ten changing-room-like cabinets erected on the ground, also a raised platform where two men and one woman sat as judges, while the rose wall remained, only the destination beyond remained unknown.
“Ladies and gentlemen!
Congratulations on reaching the final little testing area!
You are just one step away from the ultimate mysterious grand prize!” Zhu Jin said generously to the ten people, all of whom looked excitedly hopeful to be the final winners.
“Now, please allow me to introduce the three judges, Miss World Julia!
Welcome Miss Julia!
Editor-in-Chief of the international fashion magazine ‘Time,’ Mr.
Arlington!
Welcome Mr.
Arlington!
And the world’s top art investor, Mr.
Zack!
Welcome Mr.
Zack!” Zhu Jin introduced the three heavyweight judges to everyone present.
