Chapter 39: Top-quality Black Pearl
A large black pearl, as big as a longan, lay quietly in Chu Feng's palm, with a black light like velvet, bringing out an iridescent green glow, and between the lines, it revealed a metallic texture, making people look at it once and not bear to let go.
Thirteen black pearls, slightly smaller than a five-pointed coin, surrounded the longan black pearl, like stars supporting the moon, reflecting a tempting luster.
Black pearls are extremely rare. In recent years, although artificial cultivation has achieved some success, the luster is still incomparable to the dozens of pearls in Chu Feng's hand.
Those black pearls commonly seen in the world are even more unacceptable.
Intuitively, Chu Feng knew that this time the harvest was not small, so he wanted to get rid of a dozen or so small pearls. As for the black pearl the size of a longan, he wanted to keep it.
He put the black pearl into his pocket and drove straight into the city, walking into a large-looking jewelry store, Zhengshi Jewelry.
The manager, a middle-aged man, looked at the black pearl in Chu Feng's hand and his eyes lit up for a moment before he quickly retracted them. He took a glance at Chu Feng's ordinary attire and a hint of playful smile appeared in his eyes as he asked with a slightly frivolous tone: "Young man, this black pearl is quite well-dyed. I can take it off your hands. How much do you plan to sell it for?"
A sentence that made Chu Feng's heart feel very depressed, this was the pure natural black pearl he personally took out from a small shell since childhood, how could it be dyed?
"Boss, I personally picked it out from the shell myself, it's absolutely natural!"
"Oh, really?" The middle-aged manager obviously didn't want to discuss this matter with Chu Feng any further. He carefully looked at the Black Pearl and smiled: "Alright, young man, I'll give you 500 yuan, how about that?"
Chu Feng really wanted to spit in his face, who does he think he is, treating me like a beggar?
He directly snatched the pearl from the middle-aged manager's hand and turned around without looking back.
"Hey, young man, don't go! Can we discuss the price again...?" The middle-aged manager saw Chu Feng wanting to leave and hastily shouted from behind: "How about 1,000?"
But Chu Feng didn't bother to reason with him and directly walked out.
He then walked into Mo's Jewelry Store.
Moshen Jewelry is one of the three major jewelry merchants in Pingyuan Province.
Ping Hai's person in charge is Mo Qingshu, who claims to be the best successor of the third generation of the Mo family.
However, Mo Qianyu was not at the Mo's Jewelry Store today because she had gone to do some volunteer work. Her father happened to come and visit her, so it was he who stayed in the store.
Because Pinghai's store just opened and his daughter was in charge, Mo Yunfei was currently at the front desk. After all, a new store had many things to learn about.
"Sir, what kind of jewelry would you like to buy?" The receptionist politely led Chu Feng into the Mo's Jewelry Store and asked in a pleasant voice.
"Excuse me, miss. I'm looking for your manager." Chu Feng didn't say much more, instead taking out a black pearl and showing it to the receptionist, also subtly expressing his intentions.
"Sir, please wait a moment." The receptionist's eyes lit up when she saw the beautiful black pearl, and she politely gestured for Chu Feng to sit down before walking inside.
Mo Yunfei had already noticed this side when Chu Fengliang took out the black pearl, and he didn't wait for the welcoming lady to walk over before walking over himself.
"This young brother, I am the person in charge here. What can I do for you?" Mo Yunfei, although already over 40 years old, looked much younger than his actual age, with a elegant smile on his face as he asked Chu Feng.
"Will you accept such a black pearl?" Chu Feng handed the black pearl in front of Mo Yunfei.
Just now it was just a distant view, and couldn't be carefully looked at. Now that it's closer, Mo Yunfei can see clearly the black pearl's delicate surface, the natural luster it emits, faintly revealing a hint of peacock green in its dark depths, with a unique metallic texture. Relying on years of experience, Mo Yunfei was certain that this black pearl absolutely wasn't dyed.
The Black Pearl is called as such not because it's entirely black, but rather because it has a black base tone that radiates various colors, among which peacock green, deep purple and sea blue are the most noble.
While black pearls are mostly between 9 to 10mm in diameter, those exceeding 11mm are considered precious, and any above 15mm are exceptionally rare treasures.
The one in Chu Feng's hand was absolutely over 15mm, which means that this one was a treasure among treasures.
Making jewelry is about having what others don't have, and Mori has always been high-end, so such treasures are all the more necessary.
So Mo Yunfei took one look at this pearl and felt some excitement in his heart, no matter what, he must buy this pearl.
"So he smiled even more elegantly and warmly: 'Little brother, why don't we talk upstairs?'"
Chu Feng was somewhat surprised, he actually didn't know the value of this black pearl, only feeling that it should be worth some money. However, for Mo Yunfei's invitation, he had no reason to refuse, and followed behind Mo Yunfei, walking up the stairs.
Before He Chu Feng entered the office, Mo Yun Fei once again carefully instructed his secretary: "If it's not something particularly important, don't disturb me."
It's a feeling that is valued by people. Chu Feng felt Mo Yunfei's sincerity from his words and smiled at him slightly.
After the two sat down in the office, Mo Yunfeng rubbed his hands together and looked at the black pearl in Chu Feng's hand: "Can I take a look?"
"Of course!" Chu Feng handed the black pearl over to him.
Mo Yunfei carefully looked at the black pearl, its smooth texture, metallic luster, and the peacock green reflected on the black base, as well as a diameter of over 15mm, all proved that this was an absolutely precious item.
He took a deep breath and calmed his excited heart, then smiled apologetically at Chu Feng: "My name is Mo Yunfei, here's my business card. May I know your honorable surname, young brother?"
He was so excited that he forgot to ask Chu Feng's name.
"My name is Chu Feng."
"This black pearl, from my personal perspective, is a purely natural black pearl and an extreme product." Mo Yunfei said slowly, looking at Chu Feng: "However, Mr. Chu, I hope you understand that I must do some identification, because such an extreme black pearl is very rare and precious, so..."
Chu Feng nodded in understanding of his concerns: "Of course."
Mo Yunfei heard Chu Feng agree, and secretly let out a breath of relief. He directly made a phone call, and soon the secretary brought an old man in, who took over the black pearl from Mo Yunfei's hand.
About half an hour later, the old man walked in again, with a flush of excitement on his face: "Director Mo, this is a natural extreme black pearl, and it's peacock green, with a diameter of 18mm."
Mo Yunfei suppressed his excitement and waved his hand: "Mm, I know."
The old man walked out slowly. Mo Yunfei looked at Chu Feng and asked, "Brother Chu, I'll give you 100,000 for this black pearl."
He also knew that the price was not too high, but it was fair. After all, there are many black pearls cultivated by humans now, although those with a diameter of this size are rare, they do exist, which has also affected the price of natural pearls.
As a businessman, he also had to leave some profit for himself, so he gave out a price of 100,000 yuan for the pearl.
One hundred thousand? Chu Feng was also shocked, he really didn't think it would be worth so much money. At the time, when he was at Zheng's Jewelry Store, if they could have given him five thousand, he would have sold it. But that manager was really too black-hearted, directly giving him only five hundred.
"Alright!" Chu Feng agreed without hesitation, but immediately he looked at Mo Yunfei and asked uncertainly: "I don't know how many you can buy?"
