My Deep-sea Fishery

Xiang Yang couldn't laugh or cry after hearing the middle-aged man's explanation.

It turned out that the middle-aged man was named Song Chaoshu. He said he was a small businessman. This time, he invited his friends to play at his home, bragging to his friends that he was very good at sea fishing, and ended up being careless when he was at sea. Lost the fishing rod.

If he went back empty-handed, he felt that he would lose face.

Going ashore to buy a fishing rod, according to his statement, it was too late. Just when he had nothing to do, he happened to see Xiang Yang’s fishing boat on the sea, so he moved to Xiang Yang’s fishing boat to buy some fresh sea fish and said yes The idea of ​​fishing for yourself.

Xiang Yang discussed with He Mingde a few words.

He Mingde said: "Going out to sea is no different than being on land. If something happens, it's usually unresponsive every day. So we fishermen have always been in the tradition of helping when we can."

Chen Qingsheng also said: "Captain, let them get on the boat and pick some fish, even if they are bad people, we are not afraid."

What Chen Qingsheng said was true. There were only two people on the other side, and there were more than twenty people on his own side. As long as the other party didn't carry guns or anything like that and dared to do anything evil on the boat, even if Xiang Yang arranged for ten people to beat one, he could still sit down. Come down to the play.

"Okay, then come up and have a look, I did catch some fish on this boat." Xiang Yang shouted to the bottom of the boat.

"Thank you, brother." Song Chaoshu cupped his fists at Xiang Yang, turned his head and said: "Xiao Zhao, you go up first."

"good."

The young man named Xiao Zhao looks fat, but his skills are really good. I saw him stepping on the edge of the speedboat, leaping forward, grabbing the side of Xiangyang fishing boat, and then nimbly climbing to the side of the boat. on board.

"Hello Boss Chuan, hello everyone, my name is Zhao Ye."

Xiang Yang nodded, "My name is Xiang Yang, and I'm the captain of this ship. Tell your friend to come aboard."

"Okay, thank you."

Zhao Ye glanced at the deck, then turned around and shouted down the boat: "President Song, come up."

The ladder on Xiang Yang's fishing boat was a bit high, and it took Song Chaoshu a lot of effort to climb up.

As soon as Song Chaoshu came up, he saw four or five oversized clam shells piled up on the deck. His glasses lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Is this a pearl clam? Are you a pearl boat?"

"I'm a fishing boat. I caught these clam shells by chance." Xiang Yang said with a smile, "Boss Song, you drive such a big speedboat to fish, big boss."

"It looks big, but it's actually cheap." Song Chaoshu obviously didn't want to talk about his identity. He squatted in front of the pile of clam shells and stretched out a finger to touch one of the clam shells, then raised his head and said, "Boss Xiang, you Are these clam shells for sale?"

Most people refer to the captain of a fishing boat as the boss of the boat. If they know each other, they can change the name of the boat to the other party’s surname, but Xiang Yang always felt weird when he heard it. He said: "Boss Song can just call me Xiang Yang." , why, are you interested in these clam shells?"

"Our boss is in the jewelry business." Zhao Ye said.

"Oh?" Xiang Yang looked at Song Chaoshu in surprise.

"I lost my fishing rod when I went out to catch fish. I didn't expect to meet an unexpected joy." Song Chaoshu got up and said with a smile: "These shells are huge, and such big shells usually produce pearls. You just take them When ordinary clam shells are sold at a loss, sell them to me."

"We didn't sell these clam shells as ordinary clam shells," Fang Youqun said.

Xiang Yang also nodded and said: "Boss Song has good eyesight. These clam shells do produce pearls. I opened a clam shell earlier, and there were more than a dozen pearls in it."

"Oh? Can you show me the pearl that came out?"

Fang Youqun immediately took out two milky white pearls from his pocket.

Song Chaoshu glanced at it and said, "Such pearls are worthless."

"I know this pearl is worthless, but my captain has a valuable one."

"How valuable is it?" Song Chaoshu laughed and said, "Could it be a black pearl?"

"It's not the black pearl, it's just that the pearl is bigger." Xiang Yang asked Xiang Chen to go to his room in the cabin and show the pearl to Boss Song.

Song Dynasty books didn't take it seriously at first, milky white pearls were the most common pearls in the sea, and he had as many of these pearls as he wanted.

Seeing that Xiang Chen handed Xiang Yang a box, and Xiang Yang took out a pearl the size of a ping-pong ball from the box, he was stunned.

"This, this." Song Chaoshu looked at the pearl the size of a ping-pong ball in Xiang Yang's hand in shock, and said after a while, "Boss Xiang, can you show me your pearl?"

Xiang Yang handed it to him.

Song Chaoshu immediately held up the pearl in his hand and pointed it in the direction of the sun.

The crew members who had been in the water also came over one after another, "Captain, when did you get such a big pearl? Why don't we know?"

"I came up just now, and Master Xu opened this pearl for me."

Song Chaozhu looked at it for a long time before putting down his hand. He said to Xiang Yang, "It is indeed a natural pearl. Do you want to keep this pearl for yourself or sell it?"

this.

Xiang Yang hesitated immediately. According to Xiang Yang's original idea, he wanted to give this pearl to his mother. After so many years, my mother still doesn't have a decent jewelry.

"How much do you pay?" Xiang Yang decided to listen to the price offered by Boss Song before making a decision.

"This is a seawater pearl. Although it is a natural pearl and the pearl is full, it is the most common milky white pearl after all, so the price of this pearl is not very high. Well, a milky white pearl of this size costs 500 yuan per carat How about it?"

"ah?"

Many people gasped. Since the last time they caught pearls, many of them have seen the size and weight comparison table of pearls. Generally, a pearl with a diameter of five or six millimeters weighs about one carat. A pearl with a diameter of 10 millimeters weighs six to seven carats, and a pearl with a diameter of 15 millimeters definitely weighs more than 20 carats. The diameter of this milky white pearl is larger than a one-dollar coin, at least 25 millimeters in diameter. According to the weight, it may be close to 50 carats, so the price of this pearl will exceed 20,000.

Xiang Yang was not surprised, this price was expected by Xiang Yang long ago, and the price given by Boss Song was not much different from his estimated price.

"No." Xiang Yang shook his head and said, "I already have a use for this pearl."

This pearl is the largest pearl Xiang Yang has found so far. It has a different meaning to Xiang Yang, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Xiang Yang wants to polish this pearl into a pearl jewelry for his mother. He fished it himself. The pearls that come up have different meanings when they are sent out. I believe Xiang's mother will also like them.
