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

King of Pearls?

He's called a king, how bad can it be?

Fu Ming was so excited that he couldn't help but stand up from his chair.

The noise he made earned him another eye roll from Feng Ji.

"Uncle Feng, we haven't heard of what the Pearl King said before.

You know a lot, tell us about it!"

Fu Wan has always been very stubborn. No matter how much Feng Ji rolls his eyes at her, she will still ask a bunch of questions.

After all, they have been dealing with each other for so long, and she also understands Feng Ji's temper. If he glares at you, it means he thinks highly of you. If he doesn't want to pay attention to you, he won't even let you in.

Sure enough, when Feng Ji heard Fu Wan's question, he immediately took off his reading glasses and began to tell them the preciousness of the pink pearl.

South Sea white pearls are the finest pearl variety produced over the past century. They are mostly found in the cold waters of the South Pacific, and each pearl takes a very long time to form.

But good things are worth waiting for. The long wait will be rewarded with these high-quality pearls with thick bead layers, no flaws, and a lustrous luster from every angle. After searching for pictures for a long time, and looking at pictures online of Australian white pearls, everyone made do with the two that Fu Wan brought. The quality of the two pearls was even better than the South Sea white pearls Feng Ji had seen before.

"So, how much do you think this thing is worth?"

Feng Ji shook his head. "I won't hide it from you. I can't find a buyer who can afford the price for this thing, but there is someone who is sure to have a suitable buyer."

He paused, his eyes fixed on Fu Wan.

"You also know that person, he is Mr. Ning San who is far away in the capital."

Although Feng Ji was in this small county town, he never stopped writing letters to his old friends.

Just like when he introduced Fu Wan to sell ambergris to Mr. Ning San, Ning San also gave him some commission after he made the move.

Otherwise, it would be a question whether he could support himself with this small shop.

In this small county town, where do so many people come from who have treasures to sell all day long?

Upon hearing this, Fu Wan began to think again.

This means that she has to find another opportunity to go to the capital.

But she is not in a hurry to sell the pearls now, so there is no need to rush to the capital.

After all, pearls are not like ambergris and need to be well preserved, otherwise they will rot and deteriorate.

"Okay, then I'll go back to the capital to take a look. By the way, Uncle Feng, how is the price of gold these days?"

Feng Ji raised his eyebrows and asked, "You little girl, did you get some gold?"

Fu Wan evaded the question and lied, "It's something passed down from my family. I was just asking."

Although Feng Ji could see that she was not telling the truth, he had no intention of pointing it out.

"The price of gold bars is average right now, nothing special. If you're not in a hurry to use the money, you can put it aside for a while."

Fu Wan was naturally not in a hurry to use the money, so she planned to hide these things first and use them when needed.

All the questions that needed to be asked had been asked, and it was getting late.

Fu Wan and Fu Ming stood up and said goodbye to Feng Ji. "I have to go to the city this afternoon, so I won't bother you anymore, Uncle Feng. I'll come see you again when I have time."

Feng Ji had originally wanted to invite them both out for dinner, but when he heard Fu Wan say that she wanted to go to the city, he didn't stop them.

After all, it takes some time to travel from the county to the city. Judging from the looks of Fu Wan and the others, they have to rush back to the village after finishing their work in the afternoon.

"Then I won't keep you here any longer. Come visit me often when you have time!"

Fu Wan nodded and agreed, "How about you come with us to go out to sea next time?"

Feng Ji's eyes lit up, but he still glared at her, "You're probably going to force me, an old man, to go out to sea with you and do hard labor!"

"Of course not! If you go, I'll definitely prepare a good fishing rod for you. Then you can just sit by the boat, cast the rod, and fish while enjoying the breeze. I wonder how much fun it will be!"

These words were indeed tempting, and Feng Ji felt very itchy after hearing them.

He had gone through what he had gone through in the past few years and was now all alone.

I opened this shop purely to kill time.

"Okay, I'll take it to heart. If you don't invite me next time, I won't let you in next time!"

Fu Wan nodded in agreement, a playful smile on her face.

"Then you just wait, this door, don't close it for me!"

After saying that, Fu Wan, Fu Ming and Zhenzhu said goodbye to Feng Ji, turned around to buy some buns, and boarded the bus to the city.

Just now, Fu Wan also thought about whether to give one of the two pearls to Feng Ji, but then she thought again that Feng Ji would definitely not accept it, after all, he said that the pearl was precious.

It would be better to give him some useful information next time you invite him to your home.

The brother and sister finished all six buns they bought on the school bus. Fu Wan ate two, and Fu Ming, who had a big appetite, ate four.

Fortunately, both of them brought kettles, otherwise they would have choked.

"Awan, although these meat buns are delicious, eating a few in a row will make you feel sick."

Fu Mingkuang drank two or three mouthfuls of water and couldn't help but complain to Fu Wan.

"It's okay. When we get to the city, I'll go buy you some snacks from the supply and marketing cooperative after we finish our business."

Fu understood her at a glance, "You think I'm Lingling? What on earth are you going to do in the city?"

Yes, Comrade Fu Ming still doesn’t know what his good sister is going to do in the city.

Fu Wan smiled mysteriously. Considering that they were in the car at the moment, she was afraid that Fu Ming would make too much noise.

"I'll tell you when we get off the bus."

The shuttle bus is also very fast, and it only takes more than half an hour to drive from the county town to the city.

After getting off the car, Fu Wan looked around and then walked to the police station next to her. There was a female police officer in uniform at the door, trying to enter.

Fu Wan quickly stopped her and said, "Hello, comrade. Do you know where we sell cars?"

The female police officer was also very enthusiastic. Seeing that Fu Wan was smiling and polite, she immediately answered her.

"Do you want a bicycle or a motorcycle? These Friendship Stores sell them."

Fu Wan shook her head. "Neither. I want to buy a car."

When these words came out, the female police officer thought she had misheard.

"A sedan?"

Seeing Fu Wan nod, she asked again: "Which unit are you from?"

Fu Wan shook her head. "I don't have a job, so I thought about buying a car for myself so that it will be convenient for me to use later."

The female police officer widened her eyes in disbelief. Buying a car for herself!

Others may not know where the car is sold, but she actually knows.

Because her father works there.

"Comrade, individuals cannot buy cars. Currently, private car purchases require approval from the relevant government agencies and a letter of introduction to qualify for a purchase.

Besides, this is not a small amount of money, it must be a full two hundred thousand."

Wow, Fu Wan guessed that the car was expensive, but she didn’t expect it to be so expensive.

No wonder there aren't many cars on the road even in the city. I don't know how Qin Anning bought it.

But she was also careless. Because she was afraid that Ye Xiaocui would nag her, she hadn't even asked Boss Fu and the others.

If she had known that it required government approval, she would have asked Zhao Gang about the approval process.

But it doesn't matter. Since I'm here, even if I'm not allowed to buy a car in the city, I can always buy something else.
