Chapter 512 Return Gift
It's not surprising that Li Shi would agree.
I guess he had no idea what this bet meant, and just agreed to it in a daze.
I don't want to think too much.
Kangzai is different. Smart people will naturally think more.
That was a shipwreck that had never been discovered by anyone, and Ye Qing got so many silver coins just from a skeleton.
There's a high probability that there's some good stuff in this shipwreck.
This gamble could be as low as 5%, which could mean tens of thousands of dollars.
He couldn't help but think about it.
Although he and Ye Qing are brothers, closer than biological brothers, he couldn't agree immediately when faced with such a large sum of money.
Of course it would be great to win, he could get a much larger share than if they split it evenly.
But if you lose, it will be a lot less.
The main reason is that the chances of losing are too great.
To put it bluntly, he actually thought that it was impossible to produce Melo Pearls from this coconut snail.
He had said before that there must be Melo Pearls inside, but that was purely to give Ye Qing face.
It was just a casual talk, but now it’s real!
Don’t even think about changing his attitude just because of this little money. Who wouldn’t think twice about it?
Zhang Jun saw that he was in trouble and came to his rescue, saying, "Alright, alright, there's no point in gambling like this."
"We're 100 percent sure to win."
"You can cheat anyone but not your own brothers."
"Once we salvage the sunken ship, if there are any treasures, we can just convert them into cash and divide the money. It will naturally be evenly distributed."
Seeing that Kangzi didn't want to gamble like this, Heizi smiled and said nothing.
He made the bet just for fun, not for the extra percentage of money.
Cai Ya's eyes flickered. He really wanted the money, and it was Kangzi who took the initiative to propose the bet. But in the end, Kangzi backed out. That wouldn't work.
He fanned the flames and said, "Kangzi, are you changing your tune just because of this little money?"
"Qingzi brought this coconut snail up here as if it were a treasure."
"For Qingzai, you have to take a gamble too!"
Chen Hu said, "Forget it, forget it. If you don't want to gamble, then don't gamble."
Cai Ya curled her lips and said, "It doesn't matter whether we bet or not. The main thing is that Kangzi said he had Melo Pearls before, but he wanted to change his words just because of a bet. It's a bit unbearable!"
Ye Qing said, "My brother-in-law said he was 100% sure to win, but I don't think so."
"If such a large coconut snail doesn't grow something, would it be worthy of its size?"
"Kangzi, let's gamble."
"If you don't gamble, they can use this to bully you for years."
If Kangzi changed his words and launched Melo Pearl, he would not only be squeezed out for a few years, but would probably be criticized for the rest of his life.
Kangzi gritted his teeth and stamped his feet: "Let's bet!"
"I believe Qingzai!"
After saying this, he looked at Ye Qing with tears in his eyes.
To be honest, his heart was bleeding. In his opinion, tens of thousands of dollars were just wasted.
He knew that Cai Ya was using provocation to deliberately irritate him, but he fell for it anyway.
Said he couldn't afford it.
Even though he knew he would lose, he still fought to the end!
It’s all about temper!
Ye Qing gave a thumbs up.
This is a true brother!
Support with real money!
Heizi got on the boat and used tools to pry open the coconut snail. It took a little effort because the coconut snail shell was very beautiful and he couldn't bear to destroy it.
If there are no Melo pearls inside, this shell is actually the most valuable.
The second is snail meat.
Locals like Ye Qing think that coconut snail meat is not tasty, but this is actually a relative statement.
Nowadays, even the cheapest seafood can be considered a good ingredient if it is found inland.
After a while, a large piece of snail meat was taken out.
Heizi said, "Such a big piece of meat, cut it into thin slices and cook it later. It will be a good dish if you add more seasonings."
"Brother Ye Qing contributed a dish!"
Cai Ya grabbed a few very large small blue dragons and said, "If that's what you say, then I'll contribute one too."
"If each person eats one of these big little blue dragons, they'll probably be full."
Hei Zai glared: "You are showing off."
Cai Ya smiled proudly. This time he went into the sea, he gained the most.
At this time, the boatman who picked up the snail meat exclaimed: "There is something inside!"
When the snail meat was opened, a yellow bead appeared in everyone's sight.
Kangzi reacted the fastest. He snatched the snail meat from the boatman's hand and took out a bead as big as a baby's fist from it.
Everyone was stunned.
The Melo Pearls really came out!
He carefully held it and handed it to Ye Qing, then ran to get a pipe and rinsed the Melo beads clean.
Under the light, Melo Pearls emit a unique luster.
Unlike abalone pearls, the surface has a special ceramic-like luster.
Ye Qing was also attracted by the beautiful Melo Pearl. He took a closer look and saw some unique cloud-like and flame-like patterns on the surface of the Melo Pearl. He exclaimed, "No wonder they call it a Flame Pearl."
At first glance, it looks like a smaller version of Mars.
The shape is also very close to a circle, and it is the best of the best.
Kangzai danced excitedly, even doing a section of Subject 3 without any music, and shouted, "Melo Pearl!"
"Melo Pearls are out!"
"Qingzai's luck is unbeatable!"
"I won, hahahaha, I won."
"Cai Ya, do you regret provoking me?"
Cai Ya twitched the corners of his mouth and responded with a smile that was uglier than crying.
Li Shi said sullenly, "What's the big deal? Why are you so excited?"
"I knew I could win."
Seeing his serious look, everyone burst into laughter.
No one cared about winning or losing, they just wanted to have fun.
He took the Melo beads from Ye Qing's hand, passed them around one by one, and looked at them intently.
This Melo pearl is so beautiful, no wonder it can be sold at a sky-high price.
Any woman who sees this will be unable to walk.
Heizi found a scale specifically for weighing valuables and placed the Melo Beads on it. "54.38 grams."
"I once saw a 60-gram Melo pearl auctioned for 1.8 million yuan."
"Then this Melo Pearl must be worth at least one and a half million!"
Hearing this, everyone looked at Ye Qing enviously and said congratulations.
Ye Qing smiled and said, "This is a good sign. It means we will definitely have a bigger harvest tomorrow!"
I just came to try out the equipment, but I didn't expect to get this unexpected gain.
To be honest, I'm a little bit drunk!
Xiaodian is becoming more and more powerful, and his ability to find things in the sea is getting stronger and stronger.
Maybe in the future he could form a team like this and let Xiaodian lead them to the sea to look for natural jewels like Melo Pearls.
Of course, the premise is that these people are trustworthy.
Once we got to Melozhu, no one cared about the coconut snail meat thrown aside.
No one got off the boat, but returned to the cabin, where the boatman quickly prepared a table full of seafood feast.
Eat and chat.
It was just after nine o'clock in the evening after we finished eating, and no one suggested having a midnight snack when we returned to the orchard.
We have to salvage the sunken ship early tomorrow morning, so we need to conserve our energy tonight.
One night passed.
The next day, just as the sky was getting light, Liangye Qingye got up from bed, washed up, and took a walk before Kangzai and the others came to the orchard.
Shen Ninglu also came.
When she was about to leave the orchard, while no one was paying attention, she secretly grabbed Ye Qing's hand, took out a talisman, and said, "This is what I asked for in town yesterday."
"Sister Lan said that sincerity is the key to success."
“I think this should be very effective.”
Ye Qing felt warm in his heart and thanked him. He didn't know what was going on. He returned to the cabin, took out the Melo Pearl he had gotten yesterday, and said, "Return the gift!"
Shen Ninglu held the Melo Pearl in her hands, feeling a little overwhelmed.
Receiving such a generous return gift made her a little panicked. After all, she was within the system, so she didn't think too much about it, but she could not guarantee that others wouldn't think too much about it.
Once discovered, people would likely think that there was a conflict of interest between the two of them and that there was suspicion of money transfer.
Unless they were a couple, it would be barely acceptable for Ye Qing to give her such an expensive gift in return.
Since they are a family, there is no need to worry too much, and the suspicion will be dispelled.
So the question is, what exactly does Ye Qing mean by giving her such precious Melo Pearls?
Shen Ninglu's heart was in turmoil for a moment.
