Sea-hunting: With the system in hand, my eyes are the ruler

Chapter 1223

"Then...you give me a thousand?" The fat uncle was not very sure. Should he bid a higher price?

The thin uncle patted the fat uncle and said, "One thousand is definitely enough. We are not doing retail business. Besides, it's fate that we met here, not to mention that we took their seafood."

The fat uncle thought about it and said, "Then give me one thousand."

Jiang Han paid three thousand directly when he scanned the code. The fat uncle and the thin uncle were stunned for a moment, "One thousand is enough, why did you give so much?"

Jiang Han smiled and said, "We said we would give you the retail price. This bucket of abalone is quite a lot."

"That won't cost 3000, right?"

According to the retail price, even if 1000 is not enough for this bucket, 2000 is almost enough.

Jiang Han gave 3000, which was really too much.

"It's okay, just keep it. Like I said, as long as my girlfriend is happy, it's okay if the price is higher than the retail price."

Jiang Han looked at Meng Guo, "Are you happy?"

Meng Guo nodded repeatedly, "Happy, very happy."

Meng Guo knew that these two uncles were honest men who made a living by making a small profit from the price difference. She and Jiang Han would never let them suffer any loss.

"Uncle, don't worry. Once I use all these abalone, I'll make more than 3000."

The two uncles finally remembered what Meng Guo wanted to do with the abalone shell. If the mother-of-pearl is well made, the finished product is very valuable.

By then, the price may increase by more than 10 times.

"That's fine, it's fate that we met. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just give us a call."

Jiang Han thought the fat uncle was just talking, but it turned out that the fat uncle insisted on adding him on WeChat.

Jiang Han didn't hesitate and added the fat uncle's WeChat.

Perhaps because he was embarrassed, the fat uncle took out all the frozen persimmons.

"Didn't you all say these persimmons are delicious? These persimmons are all for you. If you want some, just tell me on WeChat and I'll send them to you."

This time it was Jiang Han and Meng Guo's turn to feel embarrassed, but they also thanked the fat uncle.

The thin uncle said, "If you need more abalone shells in the future, just let us know. I'll let you pick them out when I bring the boat over."

Jiang Han smiled and just said thank you.

He came for the abalone pearls, but if it were just abalone shells, he could get them from the wild if he wanted.

The prices of abalone beads vary greatly. If he finds a good bead, it would be worthwhile for him to spend 2 to use a deep scan.

If the abalone pearls he found were only worth a few thousand dollars, he would have lost money.

Jiang Han and Meng Guo returned to their boat hand in hand.

Jiang Han looked at Meng Guo, "Are you really planning to use these abalone shells to make mother-of-pearl?"

Meng Guo examined the abalone he had just bought. "Yes. I just bought a wooden comb and plan to polish the abalone shell and inlay it."

"A wooden comb wouldn't need that many abalone shells, would it?"

"I can keep it and use it later. I can make it into a brooch or other jewelry."

What makes mother-of-pearl valuable is not the abalone shell, but the craftsmanship.

Mother-of-pearl inlay is a laborious and time-consuming process that requires immense patience, but the resulting work is truly beautiful.

At this moment, Meng Guo took out the abalone that Jiang Han had placed in the bucket.

This abalone is not only ugly in appearance, but also small in size.

Jiang Han looked at Meng Guo's frown and teased her deliberately, "Do you still think it doesn't look good?"

"No, I always said it was beautiful." Meng Guo quickly denied it, looking like he was saying one thing and thinking another.

"is it?"

"Of course, the abalone shell needs to be polished. Don't look at it as ugly now. I will grind off a few layers of it and reveal the pearl layer inside. The shell will be very dazzling."

As if to prove that his words were true, Meng Guo directly broke the abalone open.

"I'll put the abalone meat away and we'll steam it later."

"Okay." Because the shells were still needed, Jiang Han found a plate and asked Meng Guo to put the abalone meat into the plate.

When Meng Guo was taking the meat, he suddenly touched something hard. Meng Guo was stunned and touched that special place a few more times.
