The first time, the second time.

"Don't worry, everyone. Our Chinese pearls are the highlight!"

Jiangnan kept the mystery and continued: "The sixth one is called the Notiga Pearl!"

"It weighs 43.75 carats. It is not as white and flawless as ordinary pearls. It is a dark green pearl produced from abalone shells, which is what we later called Tahitian pearls."

"This pearl once belonged to Mrs. Notiga, so it got this name."

"The fifth one is called the Carlota Pearl!"

"It weighs 21.5 carats and is perfectly round in shape. It is a natural wild pearl of extremely excellent quality!"

"Like the Notiga Pearl, it is said that this big pearl once belonged to Mrs. Notiga. It was owned by the Queen of Mexico, Carlota, hence the name.

"The fourth is called the Regent Pearl."

"It weighs 84.25 carats, is produced in the Persian Gulf, is silvery white, very shiny, and is the largest pear-shaped pearl in the world."

"Its first owner was Napoleon, who spent 40 million francs to buy it."

"Later, Napoleon inlaid it in the French crown and gave it to his wife, Queen Marie Louise."

"Then, Napoleon led his army to Russia, and Queen Marie Louise was appointed regent and went to the front with her husband. This pearl also got its name at this time."

"If you are familiar with history, If you know the history, you should know that Napoleon failed at that time, and this pearl was taken back. "

"In 1953, Napoleon III was getting married, so he changed the Regent Pearl into a pearl corsage. "

"In 1987, the French royal family was in financial crisis, and this pearl was sold again. A princess bought it and made it into a pendant. "

"In 2005, this pearl was bought by a mysterious businessman in Geneva, creating a sky-high price of 24.84 million US dollars! This is also the most expensive pearl in the world. "

"The third place is called Hope Pearl. "

"It weighs 450g and is a huge water drop-shaped pearl. "

"As before Different from all the pearls, the Hope Pearl has a very unique shape. It looks like a cylinder, with one end white and the other end brown. It is also inlaid with diamonds, emeralds and sapphires, making the whole pearl more precious and more recognizable. "

"In the 18th century, the Hope Pearl belonged to a banker named Hope, hence the name."

"As Hope screamed, the pearl was inherited and auctioned by three nephews. It was sold at a sky-high price of 200,000 US dollars at the time, and then disappeared. It has not been found to this day."

"The first two to be mentioned next are the pearls of our China!"

Jiangnan coughed lightly to remind the audience in the live broadcast room.

Hearing the word "China", the audience instantly got excited.

"No wonder we haven't heard of Chinese pearls. It turns out they are ranked first or second!"

"Chinese pearls: I'm ranked third. Let's see who dares to rush forward!"

"I'm not bragging. Chinese pearls are awesome!"

"Not only are pearls awesome, but all kinds of handicrafts are inseparable from China!"

"Yiwu: With me here, no one can surpass China in terms of handicrafts!"

Jiangnan smiled and said, "The second place is Laozi Pearl!"

"It weighs 6350g, is bigger than a human head, and is worth $4.08 million. The world's largest wild pearl. "

"The reason for this name is that you can see the statues of Laozi, Confucius, and Sakyamuni from different directions."

"It's a pity that this pearl was not found in China, and it is not in China now."

"In 1934, it was found in the Palawan Bay in the Philippines."

"In 1936, by chance, it was brought back to the United States by a doctor and sold to a jeweler. It is now in the vault of a San Francisco bank."

The audience was originally excited, but now it has become passionate.

"Damn it, my pearl is not in China?"

"Laozi: Please don't name it after me, it's really embarrassing!"

"No more words, my stealing skills finally come in handy! Brothers, if I can bring back my pearl, can you guarantee that I won't be caught?"

"What a joke, how could you be caught? Weren't you playing poker with me at home at that time!"

"As long as you can steal it back, I guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future!"

"That's too small! That's too small! As long as you can steal it back, you will be Laozi in the future!"

"How can that be called stealing? That's called moving! Please remember that you are not a thief, you are just a mover of other people's property!"

"

Nongfu Spring: I feel offended! "

"Everyone, please wait a moment. If you really want to move it, the No. 1 pearl needs to be moved back!"

Jiangnan interrupted the audience in the live broadcast room and continued: "The No. 1 pearl is called the Pearl of Asia!"

"It is 100mm long, 70mm wide, and weighs 121g. It is the second largest natural wild pearl in the world!"

"In 1928, this pearl was mined in the Persian Gulf. Persia bought it and named it the Pearl of Asia."

"At that time, the emperor of our country was Qianlong. In order to curry favor with Qianlong, the king of Persia gave it to Qianlong, and it became Qianlong's favorite thing. "

"Later, after several generations of inheritance, we have to mention a person, a person who will be spurned and cursed as long as he is mentioned-Cixi!"

"The Empress Dowager Cixi was in power at the time, and the pearl came into her hands. ”

“In traditional Chinese medicine, pearls have the effect of calming the nerves and calming the nerves. Cixi may have done too many bad things and needed to calm her nerves, so she ordered the court craftsmen to inlay a large piece of tourmaline next to this pearl and hold it in her hands all day long.”

“In 2000, the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Kyoto and snatched the Pearl of Asia.”

“18 years later, it reappeared in the Greater Bay Area of ​​China and was bought by a Chinese for 50,000 US dollars.”

“Who would have thought that after World War II, it disappeared again. When it reappeared, it was auctioned in Paris. Because the confidentiality measures were so good at that time, the Pearl of Asia disappeared with the buyer as soon as the auction ended.”

“It was not until 1993 that a jewelry store in the island country borrowed it from the owner's home in London to commemorate the 100th anniversary of artificial cultured pearls. It reappeared in front of people's eyes and then disappeared again.”

“But I have a hunch that it must still be in the island country and Ying country! ”

Before she finished speaking Jiangnan dialect, the audience in the live broadcast room had already started to curse.

"This old woman Cixi is really not a good person!"

"How can she be a human being!"

"National hatred and family feuds make me more and more angry!"

"It's all because the Qing Dynasty was too weak at that time. Many things left by our ancestors were robbed!"

"If you ask me, the Qing Dynasty should not appear in history!"

"Who said it wasn't? The firearms in the Ming Dynasty were at the top of the world, but after the Qing people entered the pass, they actually hid all the firearms. They would rather soak them and leak than use them. If they had focused on developing firearms like the Ming Dynasty, they would not have let the Eight-Nation Alliance invade Kyoto!"

"It uses this word very spiritually!"

"I really don't understand why some people still say that they are descendants of the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, and they are so proud of it. Damn it, I bah! ”

“Alas, many cultural relics of our country are now abroad, even Zhu Di’s sword is in the British Museum!”

“There are many dynasties in history, but as long as the Qing Dynasty is mentioned, 100% of them are scolded!”

“The early Qing Dynasty was okay, but the later period was really lame, more embarrassing than pulling your trouser pockets on the street!”

“Who said it wasn’t? When I read novels, I found that few men’s historical texts wrote about the Qing Dynasty, but in women’s novels, many of them let the protagonist travel back and fall in love with those princes!”

“Palace”: You scold again! You scold again!”

“What a joke, if you write about the Qing Dynasty in men’s history, you will be laughed at by your peers for the rest of your life!”
