The next day, after the people on the Yuehua ship had finished preparing the game, Yue Lanxing went to find Xu Zhaoyue. Xu Zhaoyue's eyes were almost blurry from looking at it. "Only an expert could tell the difference."
"Miss, there are instructors over there who can provide guidance, but it costs money." Yue Lanxing looked at the sign standing in the distance.
Xu Zhaoyue shook her head. "No need. Just say a number between 1 and 10, anything will do." Yue Lanxing didn't know what she was going to do, but still said "seven".
"I want to buy the seventh one in the third row, how much?" Xu Zhaoyue asked the price and was about to pay when she turned back and called to Yue Lanxing, "Come here, you can choose one too, and we can compare them."
"Then the third row, third one, symmetrical." Yue Lanxing followed Xu Zhaoyue's suggestion and suggested a position as well.
After paying, Xu Zhaoyue received two signs indicating the spots they had purchased. "Let's wait over there. I think it'll take a while to choose our spots."
"I need the best one, can you tell?" It was Yue Wenzhi's voice; he was talking to the master who was helping people select clams.
The master craftsman dared not make such a promise. "I can't guarantee that. I can only make sure you don't lose money. It's too much to ask of me to do the best I can."
Xu Zhaoyue and Yue Lanxing bypassed them and came to an empty space. "These pearls don't produce any particularly good quality ones. What should we do with them?"
The clams haven't even opened yet, and Xu Zhaoyue is already making plans. Yue Lanxing is also thinking about this with her, "Hang it on a wind chime? Shouldn't we make a seashell wind chime?"
“That’s right, I’ve already finished the design drawings. I’ll show them to you when I get back.” Xu Zhaoyue thought that made sense.
The two of them were chatting, their eyes constantly meeting. Yue Minghao, who had wanted to strike up a conversation, gave up the idea when he saw this and went to buy a clam first.
When it was time to open the clam, everyone gathered around again. With Yue Lanxing by her side, Xu Zhaoyue was surrounded by spaciousness.
One by one, the clams opened, some with joy and some with sorrow. Starting from the back, the clam chosen by Xu Zhaoyue was opened first. "Wow, this customer really hit the jackpot! Everyone, look how many are inside, let's count them." The person opening the clam handed it to a very clean-looking person next to him.
"Here they come, one, two... seventeen, and eight of them are of good quality. Congratulations!" This is a very good result; Xu Zhaoyue's money spent on buying clams was well worth it.
Xu Zhaoyue excitedly told Yue Lanxing, "Seventeen! That's pretty amazing, isn't it?"
“Of course, how could the young lady not be amazing?” Yue Lanxing had just finished speaking when the clam he had chosen opened. “Eleven, five are quite good.”
"Can our scores get us into the top three?" Xu Zhaoyue hadn't kept track of how many people were ahead of her, but her score seemed to be near the top.
Yue Lanxing thought for a moment, "You could have made it into the top three, but you should be in second place now. It depends on the situation of the top two."
Since Yue Lanxing said there was hope, Xu Zhaoyue did not leave in advance. They waited there for the final result. "Number 5 in the first row, number 7 in the third row, number 6 in the second row, congratulations to the top three."
"Please come forward to collect your prizes, the three of you."
Xu Zhaoyue walked over, followed by Yue Minghao and then Liu Xuan. The three of them received their prizes and went together.
"There are two pearls! They're so round and smooth." Xu Zhaoyue opened the box and showed them to Yue Lanxing. Yue Lanxing picked one up and it was indeed very full. But two pearls can't be used for anything other than earrings, right?
"This quality is good enough to make a pair of earrings for the young lady," Yue Lanxing commented.
Liu Xuan leaned closer with his box in hand. "What good would these three do if I added them? They're useless to me. I just play with this for fun. Once I'm done having fun, I won't take this back with me. You can have it."
