"Miss, why do you have to look for big stones? I know you must be talking about diamonds, but don't you want to know more about the pearls I sell here? Very good quality ones would cost tens of thousands of yuan outside, but I only sell them for a few hundred yuan."
"I don't have any. This money was given to me by my master's wife."
"Your teacher's wife? Yes, that's right. Since she's so kind to you, why don't you buy her a pearl necklace?"
"I'd like to ask if this is the big stone that the ancient martial arts champions used to carry when they took the imperial examinations."
When Ji Nianqin was asking, she discovered that there was a mantis chasing a big rock in the big glass cover in front of her.
She looked left and right, as if she had become amber.
"Could it be? This is it?"
"Miss, why are you really looking for stones? These are cultural relics. I don't understand their origins. They are things that can't be circulated on the market. You should know that reselling cultural relics is illegal. So pearls are safer. They look plump, not oval, but perfect circles. I'm not kidding you. At this price, buying one with flaws is already good. If it were almost flawless, it would cost tens of thousands."
“I really don’t buy it.”
Ji Nianqin pushed the salesperson next to her. Ever since she stopped outside a pearl shop and saw the sign outside saying that there were precious gems inside, she was followed all the way to the museum.
"Miss, I think you're from out of town. Pearls are a specialty of our coastal city. I definitely don't sell defective ones with major flaws. I'd just throw those away. And I definitely don't sell shell pearls. Those are polished directly with shells, which looks very fake."
"What's wrong with the shell? It's the shell that holds the pearls. It went through a lot of hardship to make them grow. So do you have any shell pearls? If you do, I'd like to buy one."
"One? Don't tell me, I really have one here. If you know so much about pearls, I won't lie to you. In fact, all the pearls I sell here are shell pearls. Just tell me which one you want, and I'll get it for you right now."
"Administrator, come and arrest this person selling fake goods."
Ji Nianqin called the museum manager and took the salesman out. Ji Nianqin could finally observe the big stone inside quietly, and kept pouring her thoughts into the stone, but in an instant she heard the queen's speech.
"It seems that this stone should be like a crystal ball. If I can't take it to another world, maybe it can let me see what my mother is doing now."
Ji Nianqin closed her eyes again and heard the queen speaking again.
"How could that be? Could it be that the Crown Prince's mother sent me a text message asking me to come here?"
While Ji Nianqin was thinking, the salesman outside was pointing and talking to others about Ji Nianqin.
"It was her. She deliberately blew me up and I almost got arrested. You have to help me teach her a lesson."
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
"But for some reason, she's still very wary of others, as if she's been hurt in the past. So you have to be extra careful."
"Don't worry, I'm not selling anything. I don't have anything to sell. What I sell is an idea."
As the two were whispering to each other, Ji Nianqin came out mumbling something, but was stopped by a lady wearing glasses who looked like an elementary school teacher...
