Jin Pinmei: A Girl Appraiser

"Old Bai, where did you get these butterfly shells?" Someone asked the middle-aged man in the crowd.

"Don't mention it, I am annoyed when I see these butterfly shells now, so I want to clean them up quickly." The middle-aged uncle named Lao Bai sighed, "Didn't I go to Nanyang this time?"

"Uncle, did you go to Nanyang to fish for shells?" Baolian Duanmu was very curious. Could it be that in Nanyang, the mother-of-pearl shells were picked randomly?

"Fishing shells is an accident, an accident!" Hearing this, Lao Bai kept shaking his head and sighing, "With 1 yuan each, no one of you wants to bet on it?"

"Old Bai, you can ask for more blessings!" A middle-aged man came over, patted Lao Bai on the shoulder, shook his head and sighed.

1 yuan each?Duanmu Baolian thought, there are no pearls yet.In the shopping mall, a pearl with a diameter of [-] or [-] millimeters, golden inlaid and inlaid, is only in the early [-]s. At this price, it is no wonder that people treat it as a rare and exciting thing, and no one wants it at all.

"Old Bai, it's not my old man talking about you, you're not young, don't try to hook up with some children, I advise you to find a jewelry company as soon as possible, and forget about these butterfly shells." Wu Shufei came over and patted Lao Bai’s shoulder, and said, “Say, you are fed up and went to Nanyang to fish for shells. How old are you? You still have the face to come here to borrow a place to set up a stall. I sell antiques here. Yes, not shells."

"Don't mention those jewelry companies." Lao Bai gritted his teeth immediately and said, "You think I haven't thought about finding a jewelry company to make a move, but they didn't even look at it, and just said that they have a source of pearls, don't... ...Lao Tzu, this is an authentic wild South Sea shell, and the probability of producing pearls is very high."

He also has no choice. He got such a batch of shells in his hand and sold them cheaply. Wu Shufei's Boya Pavilion was used as a venue, and these shells were transported here, and he was going to play a betting game.

Before a shell is opened, no one knows whether there are pearls in it, or if there are pearls, they are worthless if they are crooked or too small.

However, if you can bet that kind of pearls with pure color, round particles, and large size, they are quite valuable. Therefore, pearl shells have a lot of potential to bet. This thing is said to be popular on the coast of Zhejiang.In the Jinling area in the south of the Yangtze River, I have never heard of it.

Lao Bai thought that most people who can afford antiques are those who have money and leisure, and they also have spare money to gamble, so he directly brought these shells over.

It's just that the ideal is very full, but the reality is skinny - people who can afford antiques are indeed rich and leisure, but no one is stupid if they have a lot of money.

Therefore, many people watched it, but no one bought it at all. He even took the initiative to cut a shell. Of course, his luck was also very bad, and no pearls were cut out at all.

"Uncle, do you know how much a pearl costs in the mall?" Duanmu Baolian kindly reminded, "A Nanyang gold bead, 1 to 1 millimeters in size, inlaid with platinum broken diamonds, costs more than [-] yuan. A single shell costs more than [-] yuan, who are you foolish about?"
