Chapter 6 Selling Pearls

After Wan Ling'er left, everyone was silent.

Chen Cong suddenly hugged Zhang Jian's shoulder, stared at him with an ugly face, and said affectionately: "Brother Sun Ze, can you come to attend my birthday?"

Zhang Jian pretended to be serious, touched the scar on his face and said, "I'm sorry, I can't."

"Why?" Chen Cong screamed with his throat, "Has Ling'er done something wrong?"

Zhang Jian held his forehead: "Because you are so beautiful, I'm afraid I can't control myself."

The two of them’s vivid performances caused everyone to laugh, like a funny stage drama of love.

"Go to your mother!" Sun Ze came over and punched and kicked, making the two of them begging for forgiveness.

Suddenly, Chen Cong grabbed the fist that Sun Ze hit and said seriously: "Xiaoze, don't think so much. Go when you should. If you don't have the money to buy a gift, tell us that although we friends are poor, we still grit our teeth and get some for you."

Hearing this, everyone nodded quickly.

"Chen Cong is right."

"Brother Sun, if you have something to do, you can talk."

When Sun Ze heard everyone say this, he felt aroused. This is his good friend. Although everyone's family is not in good condition, this love cannot be found among the so-called rich second-generation friends.

"Thank you everyone." Sun Ze said with emotion.

After get off work, Sun Ze did not go home, but took a taxi and said to the driver: "Master, go to Ronghua Street."

Ronghua Street is the largest jewelry commercial street in Yanjing. It is lined with jewelry stores. Sun Ze is preparing to sell the moonlight pearls that were shot from the copy there.

On the way, Sun Ze was thinking about what he needed to do after selling the pearls and getting the money.

First of all, you have to upgrade your equipment. The magic sword Apophis at home is not easy to use at all. It is stupid and heavy. You should change to a light weapon. In addition, the defense also needs to be strengthened. The shield is a good choice. With the shield, you will not be afraid of the fishman's water arrows.

After getting off the bus at the place, Sun Ze walked back and forth on Ronghua Street twice, and found that there was no place to buy pearls here.

Some of the jewelry stores of all sizes buy gold, some buy jade, but they just don’t buy pearls.

In fact, this situation is normal. Gold is hard currency all over the world, so there are naturally many people who collect it. China has had a tradition of playing with jade since ancient times, so many people collect it, but pearls are a bit embarrassing.

Finally, Sun Ze stopped in front of a jewelry store called "Zhen Yuxuan".

"Since there is a word "Zhen" in the name, it must be related to pearls." Sun Ze's idea was very simple.

After entering, my eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, the door outside Zhenyuxuan was not big, but it was quite spacious inside, with rows of glass cabinets containing all kinds of jewelry.

Green jade bracelets, ice-type white jade pendants, rose gold necklaces, gold rings inlaid with agate, etc., shine brightly against the backdrop of the light.

There were two sales ladies standing behind each row of glass counters. As soon as Sun Ze entered, he felt several gazes looking at him in an instant, but most of them lost interest after seeing his ordinary dressing.

In their opinion, people like Sun Ze are just poor boys at first sight. They won’t be as generous as rich second generations when they take action. They even just come here to see something new and can’t even buy them.

They were right that Sun Ze was not here to buy things, but to sell things.

Sun Ze's face remained unchanged. He held three moonlight pearls in his hand and walked straight to a corner on the right, where there were inconspicuous counters. There were two sales ladies wearing white tumble skirts standing behind the table. One of them had short hair and an oval face that was so shattered. He looked the youngest in this store, and he was not a few years older than him.

The other one is long hair, which is a little older.

"Sir, what are you looking at?" the short-haired lady smiled.

"I'll take a look." Sun Ze scratched his head and said, he decided to look at the market first and then take action.

He pointed to a small pearl necklace and asked, "How much does this cost."

"This one is one thousand eight."

"So cheap?" Sun Ze said in surprise.

It seems that the price of pearls is not expensive, so these three pearls can’t be sold for much.

The short-haired lady said: "Yes, sir, this string of pearls was artificially bred in Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas in the south. It has an average quality and no aesthetic feeling, so it can only be sold for this price."

Sun Ze was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that she was so honest and told the shortcomings of this pearl necklace.

The long-haired lady next to her secretly pounded her short hair with her elbow, gave her a wink of less than a few words, and then smiled and said to Sun Ze: "Sir, this string of pearls is not as bad as she said. Look, although it is small, it has a very good color. Girls like this pink the most, which is very suitable for buying it for their girlfriends."

Sun Ze smiled and felt that this long-haired lady had much better sales experience than short hair, but she also had more routines and hypocrisy.

He didn't answer and continued to ask, "What about this?"

He pointed to another larger pearl necklace.

"This is 28,000." said the short-haired lady

"The difference is so big." Sun Ze said in surprise. In his opinion, the difference between these two strings is only size, and the difference is not big.

"Yes, this string of pearls is sea water droplets, so the price is much more expensive."

What kind of freshwater sea water is? Sun Ze was confused. He asked, "Is sea water pearl definitely more expensive than freshwater pearls?"

If this is the case, that would be a good thing. Moonlight Pearls were called by the beach. They were undoubtedly sea water droplets, and the price would definitely be expensive.

The short-haired lady nodded and said, "It's generally the case, but it's mainly based on her appearance."

"What kind of appearance?"

“Size, shape, color, gloss.”

"Please introduce it, please." Sun Ze didn't expect that there was such a great knowledge in Pearl.

"Okay, sir."

Then, the short-haired lady carefully explained to Sun Ze how to choose a good pearl. The whole process was detailed and complex without any impatience.

The long-haired lady next to her saw that the two were chatting very enthusiastically, she couldn't help but caress her forehead, with a helpless look on her face.

Just as Sun Ze and the other two were chatting, a sales lady with a very thick lipstick whispered to others not far away: "Look, Kong Mingzhu is foolish again. She has been talking to a poor boy for almost half an hour, but she didn't think about whether he can afford it."

The thin-browed lady next to her chuckled: "You don't understand. People once said that it doesn't matter whether the thing can be sold, as long as the customer can understand the beauty."

The words are full of irony.

Another person said, "That's right, they graduated from jewelry design. They are top students. They have aspirations. Will they care about money?"

The lipstick sister curled her mouth and said, "I have a big quest. If I really don't care about money, why do I come here for sales? I think I'm just stupid in studying."

Everyone burst into laughter, obviously agreeing with Sister Lipstick's words.

Miss Xiaobrow said again: "Isn't it just a stupid study? Look at the store manager arranged Sister Niu, who was the first in sales in our store, but it didn't work at all. She is still the last one this month."

"Sister Niu is so kind to help her, which shows how stupid she is."

The lipstick lady whispered: "I heard that Sister Niu has had a fight with our Manager Liu for this period of time."

"No, Sister Niu is so protective of her shortcomings. Now she is protecting Kong Mingzhu. Let's say less, don't offend her."

The short-haired lady here has finished talking to Sun Ze. Sun Ze nodded and said, "Thank you for telling me so much."

"You're welcome, this is what I should do."

At this time, Sun Ze said embarrassedly: "Actually, I'm not here to buy things."

"It doesn't matter. I'm very happy to see you like pearls so much. In fact, no pearls or jade should be measured by money. They are natural beauty nurtured by nature, and everyone has the right to appreciate it." The short-haired lady said with a smile.

Her eyes were curved when she smiled, which looked very beautiful, making people feel like they were bathed in spring breeze.

"You are so beautiful when you smile. Let's be friends. My name is Sun Ze. What's your name?" Sun Ze stretched out his hand and said openly.

The short-haired lady was stunned. Obviously she didn't expect the little brother in front of her to say that, but she quickly reacted and reached out to Sun Ze and gently shook it, "My name is Kong Mingzhu."

"Then I'll call you Sister Mingzhu." Sun Ze said with a smile.

"Okay, I'm very happy to know you." When Kong Mingzhu heard Sun Ze call her sister, she felt a little embarrassed. As if to relieve her shyness, she pulled her long-haired sister who was looking helplessly at her and said to Sun Ze: "This is my master, Niu Moli."

"Master, this is a friend I just met, his name is Sun Ze."

"Hello." Niu Moli nodded at Sun Ze.

"Hello." Sun Ze also greeted her, then turned his head to Kong Mingzhu and said, "Sister Mingzhu, I have two pearls here. Can you help me see how much it is worth?"

As he said that, Sun Ze placed the three moonlight pearls in his hand on the glass counter. Against the backdrop of the light, the three pearls immediately shone brightly.
