Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Upon hearing this, everyone looked towards Fu Ming, only to see him rummaging in the scallop meat for a while, then pulling out a shining golden bead.

Look at that head, it’s about the same size as Fu Wan’s previous one.

"May Mazu bless you!"

"Such a big gold bead!"

"Lingling Pearl, you guys are so lucky!"

Fu Ming was so excited that he was a little incoherent. The golden bead was really too beautiful for him to react for a moment.

Fu Wan picked up the pearl and took a look at it. The gold color of this gold bead was more like pink gold, or rose gold in later generations, rather than the tea gold color of her gold bead.

It was indeed about the same size as his own golden bead, and was also round and smooth without any irregularities.

"Awan, why don't you take this bead? After all, it was chosen by the children."

Fu Ming said as he looked at the happy children, Fu Wan smiled and teased him on purpose.

"Brother, are you really going to let me hold it?"

Fu Ming nodded with reluctance, controlling himself not to look at the pearl.

Wow, what beautiful beads!

But if it weren't for Lingling and Mingzhu, he wouldn't be able to open such beautiful pearls.

"Yes, you can help the children collect them so that they can use them to make jewelry when they grow up!"

Fu Wan could see that Fu Ming was reluctant to part with it, so she laughed and put the golden pearl into Fu Ming's plate.

The pearl jingled around the bottom of the plate, then swayed and came to rest.

"Brother, you're being so formal again. Although Lingling and Mingzhu picked the scallops, you were the one who opened them.

Didn’t I just say that we should open the scallops first, and then discuss whether to keep the pearls or not!

If you really want to give it to Lingling and Mingzhu, you can give it to them later. I won’t stop you.”

"You only have one, so there won't be enough to share..."

"Yes, two children and one pearl, this is really a dilemma!"

Ye Xiaocui couldn't help but interrupt, "Don't worry about this first, the most important thing is to open the scallops quickly."

After listening to this, Fu Ming felt that he had not thought it through, and quickly nodded in agreement.

"Okay, then I'll open another pearl, and then everyone will get a Lingling Pearl!"

Hehe, it would be better to open a few more. He also wants to buy a necklace for his wife, and if he has children in the future, he wants to leave some for them as well.

As she spoke, Ye Xiaocui opened three more scallops, but still couldn't find any trace of pearls.

After thinking about it, she called Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu, with a kind smile on her face.

"Hey dears, pick some scallops for me so that grandma can share in your good luck!"

Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu were very happy and were about to go over to choose when Tom suddenly spoke excitedly.

“My scallops have pearls!”

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn to it. Tom carefully cut open the scallop meat with a knife. Fu Wan took a look and was immediately surprised.

There are actually three pearls!

The three pearls, two large and one small, gathered together like triplets. Tom was very excited and quickly took out the three pearls.

After taking it out, I found that the small pearl was a little flat underneath, and it seemed that it had not grown fully yet.

Pity.

Tom was a little annoyed, but fortunately the two larger pearls were relatively regular in shape. However, compared with the white pearl he had found before, the white color of these three pearls was a little less pure.

The white has a slightly foggy gray, or rather, it is more between beige and grayish white.

"It's okay. You're not planning on selling it anyway. It's a great gift to take home as a gift to your family."

Fu Ming grinned in comfort, and Fu Wan nodded in agreement.

"Yes, don't throw away the smaller one. Even if you can't make jewelry out of it, you can use it as medicine or grind it into powder for your face."

Since ancient times, pearls have not only been used as jewelry.

In medicine, pearls are known to clear away heat and toxins, nourish the liver, and improve eyesight. Grinding pearls into powder can also help heal wounds and, when applied to the face, enhance beauty.

Of course, these effects are also closely related to the type of pearls. Ordinary pearl powder is actually mostly freshwater pearls.

Because of their different growth environments, the structures of freshwater pearls and saltwater pearls are also very different.

The biggest difference may be that most freshwater pearls have no nucleus, while saltwater pearls have a nucleus. Therefore, there will not be too many impurities when freshwater pearls are ground into powder. However, the nacre layer of saltwater pearls is very thin and contains a nucleus made of shell material, which is expensive and difficult to process.

Of course, since the formation of pearls is inherently peculiar, there are also a few freshwater pearls with nuclei while saltwater pearls do not. Fu Wan doesn't know much about it. In her opinion, some people also like irregular pearls.

Even if she didn't grind it into powder, she could collect it and take it to the capital to find someone to sell it to. If she couldn't get a good price, she would grind it into earrings and wear it herself.

This irregular pearl earring also has a different kind of beauty.

After Tom's triplets were opened, the good news about Ye Xiaocui came immediately.

She found two white pearls among the five scallops picked by Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu.

Such a high probability made Fu Wan wonder, could it be that Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu really had better luck?

Everyone realized this problem and simply asked Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu to help pick scallops.

Of course, although the two children helped, the best ones were still given to Fu Wan.

Fu Wan's hands kept moving. After opening seven or eight scallops, she finally touched the hard and round pearl again.

This pearl feels big when touched. It is no exaggeration to say that Fu Wan feels that it is almost as big as the eggs laid by her own hen.

As soon as the pearl was taken out, Fu Ming couldn't wait to look at it. When he saw it, he was dumbfounded again.

How can there be pearls that shine as brightly as gold!

Mazu, this is the real golden pearl!

"Oh my god, this golden bead is so beautiful!"

Fu Ming muttered to himself, and Boss Fu was also very surprised.

"These pearls are the same color as gold. If they were in feudal society, wouldn't they be offered to the emperor in the palace?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaocui slapped his hand without hesitation.

"What are you talking about? How can you say such nonsense?"

What feudal society or not? It's brought up when things are going well.

Fu Wan turned the golden bead in her hand. Even the dim light in the yard could not block its brightness. The round golden shape made people happy just by looking at it.

What a coincidence, the two beads she opened today were both gold beads!

By the way, this batch of giant pearl oysters are all on Matsui Hidene's ship. I don't know whether Matsui Hidene knew that the pearl yield of this batch of giant pearl oysters would be so high.

What Boss Fu said was not an exaggeration. Such a large pearl was indeed only available in the palace before. But now, Fu Wan has planned to send it to the Wanjinlai auction. She believes that this pearl can be sold at a high price of at least 50,000 or 60,000!

Everyone admired the big golden bead, and Jack, Robert and the other two touched it several times.

At this time, Boss Fu also took out two pearls, one black and one white, the size of glass beads.

However, the quality of this white pearl is poor, the color is dark yellow and uneven, so it is estimated that it will not be sold at a high price.
