Chapter 840: True and False Night Pearl

When he came to a street stall, Li Rui looked at it and saw that the street stall was about three meters long and about two meters deep. The stall owner laid a piece of felt cloth three meters by two meters on the ground, filled it with goods, and then turned his attention to these goods. What a lot of things, it was so varied and strange, it was simply a small grocery store.

What are there on it? Bronzes include tripods, swords, horns, spear heads, etc.; jades include bracelets, chains, beads, pens, rings, etc.; coins include knives, shell coins, copper coins from each dynasty, Yuan Datou, etc.; necklaces include turquoise chains, pearl chains, court beads, sandalwood, etc.; porcelains include bowls, basins, jars, plates, etc.; silk cloth products include embroidered shoes, three-inch shoes, palace shoes, dragon robes, court suits, official hats, etc. The books include old books in various thread-bound books, books from the Wen Yi Ge period, quotes from the Red Guards, etc. This is just something that can be called, and there are many things that don’t know how to call them.

Li Rui visited this antique cultural relics market for the first time. When he saw such a rich variety of types and goods on a small street stall, he was amazed and was very surprised. He really wanted to squat down and take a closer look at everything, but he did not forget the real purpose of this trip, so he forced himself to put away his curiosity and did not look at things that had nothing to do with fluorite beads.

The three of them went all the way to the depths of the market. You can't say that they found fluorite beads at least on two street stalls. One of the street stalls gave the name "Warring States Fluorite Beads", a total of five, each of which was the size of a sanitary ball. Small holes were drilled at the top, the surface was rough and worn, and the quality was very different. Gao Zixuan and Li Rui did not consider it. On the other street stall, there was a real large fluorite bead, slightly larger than the tortoiseshell. It was similar to a small fitness stone ball, which was goose yellow and crystal clear. At first glance, it looked like a bead carved from Tianhuang stone jade. Cover the beads with both hands, not transparent in, and then look in through the fingers with your eyes, and you can see the beads emitted a blue-green light, which was a typical "night pearl".

The stall owner was a sloppy man in his forties. Seeing that Li Rui and the other two were very interested in this bead, he asked, "Can you buy it? Ye Mingzhu, this is the only one in the fresh goods market. If you miss it, you will not have it again. Alas... Don't miss it when you pass by, and you won't regret it if you buy it!"

Gao Zixuan frowned and looked at Li Rui, and whispered, "It's a pity that the color is wrong." Li Rui also felt that the bead was too yellow and was too far from the light blue of the tortoiseshell. If the flowing light could be fooled by it, then the huge difference in color would probably not be hidden from the antique dealer, and said, "Let's talk about it later."

When the stall owner heard the two of them were leaving, he stood up and shouted, "Oh, don't blame me for not reminding you, the whole fresh market is just my night pearl. If you like it and don't buy it, and let others buy it, you will regret it. This bead is not expensive, 5,000 yuan, if you sincerely buy it, I will give you a 20% discount, 5,84,000 yuan, and you will pay the money and deliver the goods at the same time. How about it?"

Gao Zixuan was unhappy when she heard this and shouted, "Hey, how are you settled the score? How could Wu8 be 4,600? Did your elementary school arithmetic teach her?" The stall owner was not embarrassed when he saw that he had never deceived her, and laughed, "Just make a joke, just kid."

Li Rui asked, "You said you are the only night pearl in the whole fresh market, right? We just walked over and saw several. I wondered why the beads of others are white or light blue, but you are yellow?" The stall owner shouted, "That's because their beads are all fake, only mine is real. If you don't believe it, try the luminous effect. Hey... I secretly tell you that their ones will not light up at night without lighting in advance. Look at me again, even if they are kept in the basement, they will shine by themselves at night."

Li Rui was not satisfied with this answer. Now he was confused about whether the beads shine, but whether the color was wrong. He asked again: "You don't have any other color? There is only such a yellow one?" The stall owner said: "Yes, just this one, what color do you want? Let me tell you, this kind of treasure is hard to come by. If you can meet it, it's your blessing. You still want to choose the color? How is that possible? Do you know how I got this bead?"

Li Rui asked curiously, "Tell me." The stall owner said excitedly, "Hey, this was collected from an old fisherman in the countryside when I went to Taobao in Yangzhou. He said that when he went to the river to catch river clams, he pulled it up in a net and poured it on the boat. In addition to the stone clams, there was also this bead. He thought it was the night pearl in the Dragon King Crystal Palace, so he hid it at home. Later, I came to their house to collect the treasures, and the old fisherman took it out and sold it to me."

Although the stall owner mentioned the origin of this so-called "night pearl" very bizarre and full of realistic romanticism, Li Rui and Gao Zixuan did not buy it. The color of this bead is too different from that tortoiseshell, which is the only and most fatal flaw and cannot be accepted.

After visiting the street stalls, the three of them swept through all the shops on both sides of the market as if they were sweeping, and finally returned to the car with disappointment.

Lu Qingman still doesn't understand why Gao Zixuan put the big, round and beautiful night pearl without buying it? It is said that the color is wrong, but what color does it matter? Isn't it possible to be able to "ye Ming"? I asked curiously: "Zixuan, why don't you buy that yellow night pearl? How beautiful." Gao Zixuan shook his head and said: "The color is wrong." Lu Qingman said puzzledly: "What color do you want? Is its color very important? Is it worth it to glow at night? What color does it matter?" Gao Zixuan's bright and beautiful pretty face showed a bitter smile, and said: "Color is not important to me, but it is very important to others. An antique dealer from Beijing wanted to order a light blue night pearl from the provincial capital. Of course, I have to come according to his needs." Lu Qingman then realized that she was doing the night pearl business and asked: "What should I do if I can't find it?"

Gao Zixuan murmured, "Yes, what should I do if I can't find it?" After that, he raised his hand and patted Li Rui on the shoulder and said, "What should I do if I can't find it?" Li Rui was searching for a fluorite processing factory near the provincial capital with his mobile phone. He said, "Wait a minute, I have found several fluorite processing factories located in the provincial capital. If it really doesn't work, let's go to the factory to buy raw stones, and then ask the jade craftsman to cut the raw stones into the beads we want." Gao Zixuan's beautiful eyes lit up when she heard this, and said happily: "If this happens, I will reward you well."

Lu Qingman didn't know the intimate relationship between Gao Zixuan and Li Rui at all, so he couldn't hear the ambiguous smell contained in her words. He heard this and hurriedly said, "Why are you polite to him?" Gao Zixuan said seriously, "He is your husband, it's okay if I'm not polite to him? If he is my husband, I won't be polite to him." Lu Qingman smiled and said, "There's no need to be polite to him." Gao Zixuan teased her and said, "I'm a scheming person and accepting his own reasons. You can make me not polite to him unless you let him be my husband, can you be Qingman sister? Hehe?" Lu Qingman was very funny and joked to her, "Okay, why can't it? Take it away, he will be your husband from now on, haha." Gao Zixuan said, "You are willing to let it go?" Lu Qingman smiled and said, "What's there to be reluctant to let it go?"

Gao Zixuan said with a joke, "You are so generous, I'm embarrassed to take it alone. Let's divide him, half of each person. He is both your husband and my husband, okay? Haha." Lu Qingman said with a smile: "I think it's okay." Gao Zixuan said, "Then I will be like you in the future, and call him husband, don't be jealous." Lu Qingman smiled and said, "I'm not jealous, you can just call him." Gao Zixuan said, "That's it."

It's decided." Lu Qingman smiled and said, "Okay, you, haha." Gao Zixuan said, "You are so generous that you can even share your husband with others. Then, if you become older and younger, we are both his wife." Lu Qingman said, "Okay, no problem, just wait until we hold a wedding, you can worship the world together." Gao Zixuan spat and said, "Bah, I'm really cheap!" Gao Zixuan said, "Don't you want him to be your husband?"

While browsing information about the fluorite processing factory on his mobile phone, Li Rui listened to the two girls joking. When he heard Gao Zixuan seeking the identity of "little wife" with Lu Qingman in person, he was very excited. He felt hot and blushed, and his whole body was so hot that he thought secretly, was she just kidding Qingman?

Half an hour later, the three of them appeared in the office of a fluorite processing factory in a village in the eastern suburbs of the provincial capital.

A deputy factory director named Zhang and the factory sales manager received three people. After listening to Li Rui explaining his purpose, he nodded and said, "You have found the right place. Our factory has the kind of fluorite that you need that can make night pearls. But I want to correct you. Not all fluorites can make night pearls." Li Rui said, "Oh? Is there any difference here?" Director Zhang introduced, "Fluorite will emit light, but it is divided into fluorescence and phosphorescence. Fluorescence means that after the light source is irradiated, it can still emit light for a short time. This characteristic can be achieved by all fluorites, but it will not emit light later. As for phosphorescence, it is an internal energy luminescence caused by rare earth ions, and it can continue to emit light without the need for external light sources to supplement it."
