"These three white flower beads, two blue rainbow cloud beads, three golden top-grade queen beads, and three golden auroras, I'll give you 8000."

"I'll give you 1 for this mixed color queen."

"Of your pearls, these 16 are the most valuable. I'll give you 13 for the other ."

The light yellow bead that Jiang Han thought was pretty good-looking was actually one of the 13 beads.

Zhang Haidai's eyes widened. "That one pearl is worth 5, but these 13 pearls are only worth ?"

"There's no way. If the size and quality aren't up to par, the price won't go up. You're lucky to have 29 pearls worth showing off out of your 16."

Many people don't have a single white selected pearl in their entire basket of pearls.

Jiang Han didn't expect the price difference to be so big.

But as Tang Qin said, he was very lucky to have more than half of his 29 pearls in good condition.

According to her, the pearl that her sister picked out blindfolded was of celestial quality, and Tang Qin could offer her 15,000 yuan for it.

The one Zhang Haidai picked should be the top-grade queen, and Tang Qin can give it for 8000 yuan each.

My sister was pretty lucky. Although Zhang Haidai was a little unlucky, he still picked a good bead.

At least not one of the 13 beads was picked.

In this case, 32 out of the 19 pearls he has this time are good quality.

Jiang Han took out a calculator and did some calculations. The 29 pearls he gave to Tang Qin totaled 203,000 yuan.

"Can't you raise the price a bit?" Jiang Han asked tentatively.

Tang Qin was a little embarrassed. "We are all old classmates. How could I possibly cheat you? The most I can give you is 21 yuan."

Unlike the previous times, she was really sincere this time.

If it goes any higher, her father will scold her.

Jiang Han knew that this was the limit Tang Qin could give him. "Okay, then 21."

Tang Qin was about to transfer the money when Jiang Han stopped him and said, "Wait a minute, can you help me look at something else?"

Jiang Han took out the metal box from the bed as he spoke.

The iron box was pressed down by a blanket, and Tang Qin initially thought it was a pillow.

Now seeing this antique iron box, she knew that the things inside were not simple.

When Jiang Han opened the box, Tang Qin saw that there were several Ruyi swords inside.

She fell in love with the rosewood Ruyi at first sight.

"They are indeed a wealthy family. Such a magnificent dragon-patterned peony should be from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty."

Tang Qin's gloved hand gently stroked the pattern on it. "The original owner of this Ruyi must have liked it very much, but--"

She smelled the scent on Ruyi, it was the smell of sea water.

"Is this thing soaked in sea water?"

Jiang Han felt that Tang Qin's vision was extremely sharp. The sea water above had dried up long ago, but Tang Qin could still see it.

"I'm just a fisherman, and these things come from the sea."

Tang Qin didn't expect that there were so many good things in the sea, which made her want to become a fisherman.

"Miss Tang, what does it matter if this thing is soaked in sea water? It's not bad at all, right?" Zhang Haidai said from the side.

Tang Qin just wanted to roll her eyes when she heard this, "Who said it wasn't broken?"

Zhang Haidai's eyes widened as he looked carefully again and again, "It's not broken."

Jiang Han also stared at it for a long time. His eyesight was much better than that of ordinary people, so he couldn't see any problems.

Every carving on it is very clear.

Tang Qin was almost furious. "Are you all blind? Where's the patina on it? The sea water has destroyed it."

Jiang Han: "..."

Zhang Haidai: "..."

No normal person would look at the patina. As long as there is no missing piece, the one with one missing piece is good.

"Can these things still be sold?"

Although Jiang Han didn't know much about antiques, he knew that patina was very important to the collection.

Having patina and not having patina seem to be two different concepts.

Tang Qin also sighed, "It can definitely be sold, but the value will be greatly discounted."
