Chapter 712 Pearl King
Zhou Chenglei was just about to look for pearls in the snail meat when his father stopped him and said, "Wait! Let Xiaoxia do it. Xiaoxia, you look for it."
He doesn't trust anyone's hand.
He only believed in Wangcai's fortune-making hands! Shrimp were easy to handle. Jiang Xia worked quickly and had already cleaned more than a dozen rhino shrimps and put them on the plate.
I originally planned to clean the two lobsters, chop them up, arrange them on a plate and steam them in the pot together with the rhino shrimps.
After listening to Zhou's father's words, he walked over. After all, it wouldn't take much time to find a pearl from the conch meat.
Tian Caihua bent down and looked at the conch meat that was the color of coconut shell and had zebra stripes. She didn't see any bulges. The meat was very big. There was one side that she hadn't seen yet. She wanted to find it herself: "Isn't it okay to just look at it like this..."
She almost said something unpleasant, but she immediately changed her words: "I don't know if there are pearls."
Father Zhou: "You should ask how many pearls there are!"
Are there pearls? Of course there are!
"Please make way and let Xiao Xia look for it."
Jiang Xia walked over, squatted down, reached out to touch the snail meat, and immediately felt a round hard object at the bottom.
When Father Zhou saw Jiang Xia's movements, he knew it was true! He knew it! Jiang Xia's hand was the hand that made him rich.
Father Zhou decided that when he went out to sea in the future, he would buy conchs and the like when he docked at other piers! Jiang Xia turned the conch meat over and took off the hard object. An orange-red flame-patterned bead appeared in front of everyone.
Tian Caihua: “!”
So big? It’s bigger and rounder than the first one Jiangxia opened!
From now on, wherever Jiang Xia goes, she will go! Jiang's mother couldn't help but sigh: "It's so big! Is this really a pearl?"
"Melody Jane."
Father Zhou laughed excitedly and said, "Hurry and see if there is any auspicious pattern! Lei, keep looking to see if there is a second one!"
He just knows it!
I knew it would be like this! With such a big pearl, it doesn't matter if there is no second one! Of course, it would be better to have a second one!
Father Jiang looked at the pearl in his daughter's hand and said, "I have seen a 200-carat Melo pearl before. It seems to be similar to this one."
Jiang Xia also felt that this Melo pearl was about two hundred carats in size.
This is probably the largest size that a Melo Pearl can grow to as recorded in the world.
Jiang Xia looked at it carefully and saw no flaws.
Of course there are no auspicious patterns, but!
These flame patterns are very beautiful, like clouds and flames.
Pearlescent and smooth texture.
The color of the whole pearl is also beautiful, similar to the orange color of a ripe papaya.
It is considered the most beautiful color of Melo Pearl and also the most expensive color.
Zhou Chenglei turned on the flashlight and let Jiang Xia take a look.
Under the light, Jiang Xia turned the beads. The light reflected from the beads was like the smoothest porcelain, without any flaws, black spots or concave surfaces! Perfect beyond imagination! So perfect that it looked fake! The value was inestimable! "No flaws!"
Father Zhou said excitedly: "Let me see! Look around to see if there is a second one."
Jiang Xia gave the pearl to Zhou's father and continued to look for it himself.
Zhou's father took it, and Zhou's mother and Tian Caihua also leaned closer to take a look.
Mother Zhou looked at it and said, "It looks good! It's really good!"
“It’s so beautiful!”
"This is so beautiful. This is the first time I've seen pearls this big."
Zhou's mother was full of praise.
Father Zhou: "He is definitely the pearl king among pearl kings!"
Jiang Xia continued to search in the snail meat, "No more!"
Father Zhou smiled and said, "It's enough if it's gone!"
A good pearl, one is enough!
You don’t need too many! Most of them are sometimes not as expensive as a good one! People living by the sea have really seen too many pearls.
Sometimes you can even find pearls when eating oysters.
It is normal to pick up a few pearl oysters when going to the sea in a year, or to find one or two pearls when eating shellfish.
But most of those pearls are small and uneven, which means they are not worth much.
Most people collect them in a jar and sell them together when the time comes, or grind them into powder for their own use when needed.
Pearl powder can be used as medicine.
Zhou's father's record was that he saved dozens of pearls in one year, half a small jar, but what was the use? He only got five dollars if he sold them all! He was very happy at that time.
The finest things are the most valuable! Exquisite fine things!
After reading it, Zhou's father showed it to Jiang's father and Jiang's mother.
The family members took turns holding the Melo Pearl in their hands to admire it, and everyone praised it highly.
At this time, Zhou Guiquan came back from selling fish and walked in.
Zhou Chenglei took the snail meat from the kitchen counter, so the whole family was in the kitchen.
He looked at the people in the kitchen and asked, "Alei's wife, did the coconut snails produce pearls?"
He passed by Jiang Xia's house on purpose to see if the coconut snail had produced any pearls.
The pearl happened to be in Zhou Chengsen's hand. When he saw the other party coming in, he held the whole pearl and said, "No!"
If the other party knew about this, he would definitely feel regretful and upset.
If they meet someone unreasonable, they might make a scene and ask for more money.
It is better to have less trouble than more.
Zhou Chengsen denied it directly.
Father Zhou also said: "No! How can it be so easy to get pearls?"
Zhou Guiquan secretly felt lucky, because he just couldn't open it so he sold it.
This kind of snail is not uncommon here, and everyone knows that this kind of snail can lay pearls, but no one has ever seen anyone eat the pearls!
Anyway, he had picked up this kind of snail many times, and he had also picked up shells that looked older and bigger than this one, but there was nothing there either! He smiled awkwardly: "Ah? No? I thought such a big coconut snail must have pearls!"
He looked up at the sky and said, "It's getting dark! I'm going home to eat first! We have to go out to sea in the middle of the night!"
After saying that, he hurried away with the bucket.
After the other party walked out of the yard, Zhou's father followed him out of the gate. After seeing that the other party had indeed walked away, he walked back and said to everyone, "Go inside and watch. Keep your voice down."
So the family went back to the living room to continue watching.
Those who came to our house for dinner today were all family members, great-grandmother, Uncle Dong, Aunt Dong and others. None of them were talkative people. The only one who talked the most was Tian Caihua. However, Tian Caihua did not dare to tell anyone about family matters now, for fear of displeasing Jiang Xia.
She also wants to stick to Jiang Xia to make a fortune.
Everyone went into the house. Jiang Xia continued to process the lobsters, Zhou Chenglei processed the snail meat, and whoever was busy with something continued to do so.
For dinner, there were mussels and fish raised at home, which Jiang's father praised highly.
After dinner in the evening, Jiang's father and mother will go back to the city. They have to go to work early the next morning. Although they can make it in time by getting up early, it is not necessary.
Ruan Tang went back in Jiang's father and mother's car and did not let Zhou Chengsen send her off.
Jiang Xia asked them to call when they arrived.
The next day, Zhou Chenglei was going out to sea to see if the fish and mussels he raised were ready to sell. Jiang Xia drove to the food factory and took He Xinghuan, Xu Ling and the others with him.
The food factory officially starts production today, and she wants to go and check it out.
She also purchased two potato chip and french fries production lines, but she hasn't taught anyone how to make french fries and potato chips yet.
