Jin Pinmei: A Girl Appraiser

Duanmu Baolian said with a wry smile: "That day at Lao Xue's place, I guessed it, I like this set of gold ornaments very much, but the Wizard of Oz is still being processed in Jinshitang. This is the first, and the second, once it is on display, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble, that thing is unnecessary, I don't want to sell it."

As Duanmu Baolian said, she took the golden step shaker from the brocade box, and said, "Uncle Zhou, if you are willing to sell this set of gold ornaments, I will take it for 36 yuan. In your words, this kind of gold ornaments, Think of it as a luxury purchase." As she spoke, she shook the golden step above her head and gestured for a while.

Zhou Mingcheng winked at the young man, the young man understood, took Jin Buyao from Duanmu Baolian's hand, and said, "I'll help you!"

However, just as he was about to help Duanmu Baolian insert the golden step on the capital, his eyes fell on the pearl hairpin on Duanmu Baolian's capital.

The white gold is inlaid with small diamonds, and a white pearl as thick as a thumb is inlaid on it. It is also a fine white gold chain, and there are two slightly smaller pearls underneath.

Even in the daytime, South Sea pearls have a round pearly luster, warm and crystal clear. Although there is no color at all, it gives people a feeling of radiance.

"Dad..." The young man looked at Zhou Mingcheng and called out in a low voice, "This pearl..."

Zhou Mingcheng only glanced at it, and not only sighed softly, but asked, "The big South Sea pearl?"

"Yeah!" Duanmu Baolian nodded and said, "Young Master Jin has always said that platinum inlays are too plain, and asked me to use rose gold or 18k gold inlays, but this one, I think, is still so plain and beautiful."

"You are right to inlay it with platinum." Zhou Mingcheng nodded and said, "The kid from the Jin family went abroad to study jewelry design. He didn't know the connotation of Chinese jewelry culture. Do you know that we have another name for this kind of pearl."

"Oh?" Duanmu Baolian said, "What's another name?"

"We call this kind of pearl the moon pearl." Zhou Mingcheng said.

"There are tears in the bright moon in the sea, and smoke in the warm sun in Lantian." Duanmu Baolian asked.

"Yes, that's what it means—the best pearl in the world is nothing more than the Nanyang Moon Pearl, and the best beautiful jade in the world is Suet Nuanyu. To be called a bright moon pearl, it must be as big as a lotus seed and bright. For example, Mingyue, these are the two standards we use to measure bright moon beads. The three on your head should be three pearls in one clam. The color and luster are exactly the same, should it be like this?" Zhou Mingcheng deserves to be a jeweler The business leader can tell at a glance that these three pearls come from the same pearl oyster.

"Yes, Nanyang white butterfly shell." Duanmu Baolian nodded and said, "It should be the bright moon pearl you mentioned." She was a little proud in her heart.

"Are these pearls worth much?" Lu Ningbing suddenly asked, what is the value of pearls, there are strings of dozens to hundreds of dollars in the market, and it is worth such a fuss?

"It's not valuable, but rare." Zhou Huashao, a young man who came with Zhou Mingcheng, said, "Pearls can be divided into artificial and wild ones. Bright moon pearls must be wild, and they must be white butterfly shells from Nanyang, which are as big as lotus seeds. , as bright as the moon, it is called the moon bead."

"But the pearls sold in the market are also very large, and they are very cheap..." Lu Ningbing said.

Zhou Huashao turned around silently. This was a topic that he couldn't explain clearly.
