Chapter 914: Chapter 914: Diamonds That Dazzle
Ten boxes after ten boxes were opened, and the Wang Family’s wives looked at the diamonds with numb expressions.
"Are these diamonds real?"
"Eighty percent chance they are fake. Any real one of these would be invaluable, and hard to come by in the market. I’ve only seen them in magazines, each piece privately owned."
"The jewelry store in the Gold Building, and some large jewelry stores have a few showcase treasures, but even those pale in comparison. Those pieces aren’t for sale either."
"Exactly, these large diamonds are basically unique, rare in the world. Getting just one would be extremely difficult. I bet 99% they’re high-quality imitations."
"Is Li Feng stupid? If he brought out just a set, he might fool some people, but bringing out so many at once declares them all fakes."
The women’s discussions were loud, and everyone present heard them.
Li Feng smirked at the women who criticized, "No need to guess blindly. These diamonds are all real."
"Three days ago, I spent five billion Federation Coins at a jewelry auction hosted by the Oppenheimer family. Each diamond has a certification. If you doubt it, you can consult the top jewelry appraisers."
"Five billion Federation Coins?"
"Hiss, really?"
These wives had seen wealth before, coming from affluent families themselves, and married into the Wang Family. Money was never scarce for them; they each had tens of millions for spending, billions for savings.
They’re not short on money, but five billion Federation Coins, which converts to at least three or four hundred billion in Flame Country Currency -- that even the Wang Family couldn’t do.
Firstly, they don’t have that much liquidity, secondly, they lack the connections.
The diamond family, Oppenheimer, is a known family, while the Wang Family could only be described with a mere ’heh.’
In the world’s top-tier families, the Yan Country has always been excluded.
In other words, they don’t even let you play.
"I think I’ve heard of this jewelry exhibit. A foreign manager mentioned it to me. This exhibit, organized by the diamond family and many elite families, supposedly gathered over a hundred top-tier diamond jewels. It was a rare event."
"But those invited were all world-renowned elites and families. It seems no one from Yan Country was invited."
"Gulp, no way."
Hearing this, looking at these diamond jewels again, could these be from that exhibit and all bought by Li Feng?
How’s that possible.
"Can we have a look?"
"If you want to see them, no problem. Just ask Jin’er, as these diamonds are a gift to her. As long as she doesn’t mind."
Li Feng shrugged.
"Where’s Jin’er? Someone hurry and bring her here."
Wang Tiandao’s face was dark as he looked at the sly Li Feng. This kid didn’t throw money at him but instead threw diamonds converted from money.
Spending five billion Federation Coins on a pile of diamonds, only he would think of that.
"Did you spend the money from selling Century Group on diamonds?" Wang Tiandao had seen wastefulness, but never at this level: spending five billion Federation Coins on a heap of useless stones.
"No, I said the diamond family gifted them. Do you believe it?"
Li Feng chuckled.
"Gifted by the diamond family, huh."
Wang Tiandao sneered, "You’re better off claiming you stole them."
"I wouldn’t dare gift stolen goods. These diamonds are absolutely fine. If you don’t believe me, Father-in-law, you can inquire around."
"Although it’s under wraps, you might catch some news if you ask around."
"Oh, by the way, besides gifting these diamonds to Jin’er, I have another request for Father-in-law today."
"You brat, stop calling me ’Father-in-law’. I don’t acknowledge you as my son-in-law."
Wang Tiandao retorted directly.
"Also, take back your diamonds. Our Wang Family doesn’t care for them. As for business, no way."
"Father-in-law, at least hear me out before deciding."
"No need for that."
Just as Li Feng and Wang Tiandao confronted each other, a car drove in. Li Feng turned to look, seeing a red luxury car.
The car door opened, and Wang Jin’er and Wang Zhi’er got out. Wang Zhi’er is from the third house, a cousin to Wang Jin’er, both about the same age.
Wang Jin’er naturally noticed the distant situation, especially the confrontation between Li Feng and her father, Wang Tiandao.
"Hiss, so many diamonds."
Wang Zhi’er immediately noticed the diamonds placed on the ground. With sunlight shining, they glimmered, impossible not to catch the eye.
"Wow, such a big one, at least a hundred carats."
Wang Jin’er also noticed the diamonds, showing a bit of surprise. Recalling Li Feng’s call about a surprise, could this be it?
"These?"
"They’re all for you. Originally, I planned to give you one per day, and after a hundred days, marry you. But a daily gift seemed lacking in novelty, so I decided to give them all at once."
"Uh?"
Wang Jin’er blinked.
"Are these real?"
"Did you really give all these to Sister Jin’er?" Wang Zhi’er eyed the diamonds eagerly but was stopped by security when she tried to touch them.
"Yes, they all belong to Wang Jin’er now."
"Sister Jin’er, can I touch them?"
Wang Zhi’er ran to Wang Jin’er, pleading, while holding her arm, prompting Wang Jin’er to look at Li Feng.
"They’re yours, you’re in charge. You can even gift them if you want."
Li Feng said.
Wang Jin’er saw Wang Zhi’er’s hopeful look and nodded.
Wang Zhi’er immediately gave Wang Jin’er a kiss on the cheek, with a smack sound, "Sister Jin’er, I love you." She then turned and rushed to the diamonds.
Wang Jin’er looked at Li Feng with a bit of helplessness.
"Jin’er, I came today not just to give you these diamonds but also to discuss something with you!"
"You brat, I already said there’s no way, not even a window."
Wang Tiandao interrupted directly.
