Chapter 60 Melezhu
You say something, I say something, the more Huo Qingtong and others discuss, the more excited they become.
Seeing this, the old uncle thought to himself: According to your discussion, when can I eat snail meat?
He coughed lightly: "Which of you wants to play? If not, let's leave!"
"No more playing." Li Qiushui and others said in unison.
Small gambling is fun, betting depends purely on luck, just play one or two games to enjoy it.
Besides, seeing that Lin Yuan's luck was so strong and the pearl oysters he selected were almost useless, it was better not to show off his shame.
Of course, they didn't know that Lin Yuan did it on purpose.
Camping barbecue is an accident among accidents, and there is no preparation at all. Instead of talking in vain, it is better to act early.
Step back from the gambling stall and give your place to others.
"Paul, follow me to the fishing port to get some more seafood." The old uncle was dividing the work.
"Henry and Xiaofan are looking for places to rent tents and barbecue tools..."
"You just go to the supermarket to buy seasonings for barbecue, some vegetables and meat, and finally some fruits."
Considering that there were vegetables, meat, and a lot of things, the old uncle asked Lin Yuan to go with Li Qiu Shui and Huo Qingtong.
More than half an hour later, the campsite was set for a camping barbecue.
Paul and Henry were setting up a tent, and Qiao Yufan was setting up tables and chairs, but his uncle was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing Lin Yuan return to the camp, Qiao Yufan put down his work and went to greet him.
He exclaimed: "Brother Lin, aren't you emptying the supermarket?"
I saw that all three of them had their hands full, especially Lin Yuan, who had bags hanging on his shoulders, as if he didn't need money to buy things.
Whose supermarket is so small? Can three people empty a supermarket?
"Stop talking nonsense! Come over and help me quickly."
Traveling to the United States was originally a pleasant trip, but I bought too many things and turned it into a chore.
After putting down the things, Lin Yuan rubbed his red palms that were strangled and asked, "Where is my uncle?"
"Uncle is in the cleaning area, processing seafood." Qiao Yufan pointed not far away and said.
"How long have you been there?"
"We have just arrived at the camp for a while."
"Then I'll go over and help." After saying that, Lin Yuan jogged over.
I was afraid that if I was too slow, the unsuspecting uncle would damage the orb in the conch.
After all, the old uncle bought the conch just to eat, but he didn’t know that there were pearls in the conch!
Huo Qingtong and Li Qiushui stood in the camp for a while and then said, "We can't help here, so let's take the vegetables and wash them first."
As he said that, he packed up the vegetables to be cleaned such as leeks, cabbage, and eggplant, and then walked to the cleaning area.
Arriving at the cleaning area, Lin Yuan found that his uncle had already processed squid, shrimp and other easy-to-clean seafood, and was about to process the two conchs.
The old uncle was holding a hammer that came from nowhere, holding the conch steady with one hand and trying to break it open.
Smashing the shell into pieces is a simple and crude way to get the conch meat.
"Wait a minute, I think the conch shell looks pretty good, so don't break it." Lin Yuan called to his uncle.
Does this thing look good?
The old uncle shook his head, a little confused about his nephew's aesthetics. I couldn't smash it, so I had to use another method to remove the snail meat, but it was just a little more troublesome.
Chen Shiquan changed tools and spent a minute finally taking out the meat from a conch.
Lin Yuan took a look and saw that it was not the conch that contained the orb.
Using the same method, the old uncle took out half of the conch meat and suddenly exclaimed: "Xiaoyuan, come and take a look, this conch seems to be hiding something."
"There is something hidden, is it a pearl?" Li Qiushui, who was washing vegetables at the side, heard what his uncle said and asked quickly.
"It's not a shell, how can there be a pearl? What are you thinking about?" Qiao Yufan heard the exclamation and came over, complaining.
Lin Yuan: "Who said that shells must be used to produce pearls? Theoretically, snails can also produce pearls, and the pearls they produce are more valuable, because the pearl production rate of snails is extremely low, which can be said to be one in ten thousand."< br>
When everyone heard this, they immediately stopped talking.
Everyone came to the old uncle and found that the old uncle actually took out a bead from the conch, which was slightly smaller than a coin.
I saw that the bead had the shiny appearance of ceramics and a flame pattern structure. It looked very beautiful.
Lin Yuan: "This is Melezhu."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Mile beads?"
This was the first time Qiao Yufan and others heard it. Only my uncle sounded familiar, but couldn't remember it.
"Is it worth anything?" Henry asked.
Lin Yuan rolled his eyes: "It must be valuable!"
"How does it compare to my golden pearl?" Huo Qingtong asked.
"There is no comparison." Lin Yuan couldn't help laughing.
Li Qiushui: "I guess so. How can it be compared with Golden Pearl? Golden Pearl is so high-end."
Lin Yuan: "..."
After three to five seconds of silence, Lin Yuan continued: "I mean, Golden Pearls cannot be compared with Melo Pearls, Golden Pearls are far behind."
Everyone's eyes widened immediately: Golden Pearl can't compare? Is it still far behind?
Did you hear that right?
Lin Yuan told them that it is extremely difficult to produce rare and precious Melo beads. The chance of finding them from conches is one in a few thousand, and the chance of being able to mine them completely in larger sizes and of higher quality is even lower.
In the collectors market, Merlot beads are extremely rare. It is the most precious with an orange hue similar to that of ripe papaya, with a cloud-like flame pattern structure inside and a crystal-clear porcelain-like luster on the outside.
"Do you know how much Melezhu costs?" Lin Yuan asked them.
Lao Liu has already checked it on his mobile phone.
After checking this, I was shocked.
A Melo bead of about 20 grams actually fetched a sky-high price of more than two million US dollars.
The one in front of me is estimated to be just over 10 grams, but it is not small. How much is this kind of orb worth?
The old uncle looked at the mobile phone handed over by Qiao Yufan and was instantly ecstatic. You know, he found this Melo Bead, and this fact is enough for him to brag about for the rest of his life.
After eating the camping barbecue, everyone continued shopping.
