Chapter 161 Worth a Thousand Gold

After the Gu family's mule cart had walked for a while, Gu Fei saw a silver building on the street and called out to Gu Qing, "Brother, stop for a moment. I'll go to the silver building to have a look."

  Chen looked at the silver building and nodded. , "I need to buy some jewelry. For such an old girl, it doesn't look good with a bald head."

  Gu Fei turned around and said, "Mom, I'm not buying jewelry, I just went to look at it." I

  only had this little money in my hand . , How could she dare to buy jewelry? She entered the silver building for other purposes.

  Several women got out of the car and entered the silver building.

  When the waiter in the store saw the people coming in, he took a quick look and saw that they were all wearing brand new clothes. The clothes were not good, but not bad either.

  It is the standard of ordinary people in Ping'an City.

  This kind of family likes to buy some silver hairpins, silver bracelets, or some low-grade jade jewelry.

  The waiter smiled and stepped forward, "Madams, please come this way. A batch of newly-made silver hairpins have just arrived in the store. They are novel in style. They are luxurious and beautiful to wear when visiting relatives and friends during the New Year."

  Gu Fei smiled. , "I don't want a silver hairpin, do you have beads in your store? I want to see the beads."

  The waiter still smiled, "Do you want to buy beads and flowers? Or just buy beads and set them yourself?"

  "I want to see them. Pearl." Gu Fei said simply.

  "Here you guys are, please." The waiter led Gu Fei and the others into a small door next to them. They saw several wooden tables placed inside. The tables were divided into many small grids, and each small grid was filled with A pearl flower contains single pearls.

  When the waiter saw Chen and Lian'er's eyes widening when they looked at the pearl, he knew in his mind that this must be something he had never seen before.

  Gu Fei saw a white bead chain. Each pearl was about one centimeter in diameter. It had a very good luster. They were all about the same size and round in shape. The price was listed at 4,500 taels of silver.

  The waiter next to him saw Gu Fei looking at the bead chain and said: "This bead chain has a total of 108 beads. It is not easy to get them together to be about the same size and the same color, so the price is a little more expensive."

  He smiled and said: "This Pearls are like this, the valuable ones are worth thousands of gold. "

  " Of course, the condition is not good, and the size is small, so it is not valuable, so we sell it for two. The smallest rice pearl only costs a few taels of silver. It's not worth anything."

  "The four words for choosing pearls are: light, round, big, and colorful."

  He pointed to a white pearl and said, "This pearl is almost perfectly round and not too small, so it's rare. The luster is very good, but it's not even eight cents. As the saying goes, seven cents of pearls are eight cents of treasure. If this bead were larger, it wouldn't be this price, it would cost at least one thousand taels."

  Gu Fei looked at it . , that white bead is priced at five hundred taels.

  Looking next to it, there is a pearl about one centimeter in diameter. It looks quite big, slightly larger than lotus seed rice. It is light pink in color and has a price tag of two thousand taels.

  She felt hot in her heart and asked the waiter, "Do you also collect beads here?"

  The waiter nodded, "Of course I do, but the price charged and the price sold are still different."

  Gu Fei understood . Yes, it is naturally cheaper than the listed price. Otherwise, there is no profit, so why sell it?

  After going around in a circle, Gu Fei had an idea of ​​the price of pearls.

  Mrs. Chen didn't know Gu Fei's intention. She looked at her daughter's bald head and watched Gu Fei walk away. She called the waiter and reluctantly spent ten taels of silver to buy a pair of beads strung together with small pearls.

  Ms. Chen thought that her daughter earned all the money. Now that she had a house to live in and land at home, if she could live a good life, she should dress her up beautifully.
