Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"Garji~"

The carriage door opened, Liu Feng came out, glanced at the people below him, thinking that the temptation of pearls was strong enough, 90% of the businessmen in the city came.

"My lord, Happy New Year." Tori and Solo took the lead in shouting, which they learned from the newspaper.

"Happy New Year." Liu Feng was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, "Everyone, it's really early."

"Lord Liu Feng, we all came when we heard there were pearls," Tori answered.

"Okay, let's go in." Liu Feng turned his head and nodded to An Li who was standing behind him, "Let someone open the door."

"Yes." An Li said respectfully, stepped outside the Pearl Pavilion, and knocked on the door.

"Garji~~"

In less than two seconds, the door opened. There are already guys preparing for it inside, and they stood aside after opening the door.

Liu Feng walked in, and he glanced at the beast-eared girl standing beside him out of the corner of his eye. Is the spot on the ear a leopard orc? He didn't think too much, and stepped into the shop.

Mina stared at the leopard orc vigilantly. She felt the crisis and murderous aura from him, which was so obvious that she had to be vigilant.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

As soon as Liu Feng and the others went in, Tori, Solo and others all rushed in. They wanted the pearls too much, after all, they could make money by reselling them.

"Uh..." The merchants after entering the door stared blankly at the decoration inside. Isn't this too rough? It's not as beautiful as other stores.

"My lord, where are the pearls?" Tori asked curiously, but there was no pearl in the hall.

The people present only saw a dozen large wooden barrels in the hall. Could it be that the pearls were placed in the large wooden barrels? Are there too many pearls? Actually use a big wooden barrel to pack it?

"The pearl is here." Liu Feng raised his mouth and reached out to pat the big wooden barrel beside him.

"Really?" Tori's eyes lit up, and he rushed to the big wooden barrel and looked down into it. He was dumbfounded. There was only water in the big wooden barrel, and there were some flat stone-like things.

"My lord, are you joking?" Solo was stunned, how could this be considered a pearl?

"Don't believe me?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows, and said calmly to Maoer Niang, "Choose one and open it for them to see."

"Yes." Mina nodded, rolled up her sleeves, reached into the big wooden barrel with her left hand to pick up the top freshwater clam, slightly turned the saber with her right hand, pierced along the shell of the clam, and then pried it open.

"There are really pearls here?" Tori widened his eyes, looking at seven or eight pearls of different sizes in the shell in shock.

"It's unbelievable that pearls grow inside." Solo pointed to the shell and said in surprise, "My lord, what is this thing called?"

"Freshwater mussels can also be called pearl mussels." Liu Feng smiled and said slowly, "This kind of mussels has a certain chance of containing pearls."

"My lord, how do you sell these?" Tori asked quickly, thinking of the freshly hatched pearls.

"It's measured according to the size of the pearl." Liu Feng said lightly, and he took out a wooden box from his sleeve, which contained measuring instruments.

Chapter 0522 gambling mussels.

"Snapped!"

Liu Feng lifted the lid of the box, and there was a vernier caliper inside. The main ruler is usually in millimeters, and it is just used to measure pearls. You must know that the price of pearls is completely different for every millimeter more.

"Enli, let's test it." Liu Feng handed the vernier caliper to Hu Erniang. He taught it to the people in the castle when he brought it from the earth last night.

"Yes." An Li took the Kashi, squatted down and picked up the largest pearl to measure, and said, "This pearl is seven millimeters."

"This one is five millimeters, this one is three millimeters..." An Li quickly measured several pearls and recorded them on the paper. The smallest pearl was three millimeters.

"This... can be divided so carefully." Tori was surprised.

"My lord, how do you sell this pearl?" Solo asked quickly, he wanted to buy the biggest pearl.

"The price depends on the size and roundness of the pearl. The larger the pearl, the rounder it is, and the color determines the price." Liu Feng narrowed his black eyes and said lightly, "Take this seven millimeter pearl as an example, at least fifty pieces Silver coins start at the price."

The pearls produced by freshwater mussels are not very big. They are not cultivated artificially. The general size is about 7 to 8 millimeters. This is the conclusion Liu Feng drew from hundreds of freshwater mussels yesterday.

As for pearls larger than ten millimeters, they are relatively rare, and the price of at least one pearl starts at ten gold coins.

"Fifty silver coins?" Solo nodded. This price is the market price, which is not much more expensive than other pearls.

"A six-millimeter pearl costs only twenty silver coins..." Liu Feng briefly introduced the price of the pearl.

"My lord, I bought all of these." Tori said hastily. His clothing store business has been booming recently, which has allowed him to make a good fortune.

"Mr. Tory, you can't eat alone, I want to buy three pearls too."

"And me, please give me a five-millimeter pearl."

The merchants at the scene were not happy, and hurriedly screamed to buy pearls, as if they were afraid that they would not be able to buy pearls if they asked late.

"Everyone, please listen to me." Liu Feng waved his hand, and after everyone quieted down, he said, "Pearls, I still have hundreds of them here, and they are on the second floor. Go up to the second floor to choose."

"Great, then I won't argue, Mr. Tory please."

"Yes, since there are still pearls, don't hurt your feelings."

The merchants backed away awkwardly and gave up the venue to Tori, as if I would not fight with you, and Tori rolled his eyes angrily.

"My lord, are all these wooden barrels filled with this kind of pearl oysters?" Solo raised his eyebrows and asked, he was suddenly interested in this pearl oyster.

"Yes, these are full of pearl oysters." Liu Feng said lightly, this is the pearl oyster he ordered people to dig out yesterday.

The source of the pearl oyster was sealed by Liu Feng yesterday, and the salvage of the pearl oyster was also carried out in secret.

"Can I pry open one? Of course, I can pay for it." Solo said seriously.

"My lord, I want to try it too." Tori said quickly.

"Okay, the pearl mussels in these wooden barrels were pried by everyone." Liu Feng put his hands down and said with a raised mouth, "The price of the freshwater mussels in each wooden barrel is different in the wooden barrels here. In the wooden barrel next to it, the price of a freshwater mussel is ten silver coins, as for whether pearls can be opened, it depends on luck."

Yesterday, Liu Feng found some information on the earth, and he could barely tell which clams had pearls in them. As for the size of the pearls, it really depends on luck.

The first clam that was opened today was also arranged by Liu Feng before. It was for the performance of the people present, and it was for one purpose, that is, to bet on clams.

"This..." Solo became dull. The price of a freshwater mussel is ten silver coins. Once a freshwater mussel with pearls is found, it will definitely make a steady profit, and it will be a big profit. But I'm afraid that the freshwater mussels that are opened will not have pearls, and that will be a blood loss, which is completely like gambling.

"Of course, there are cheaper freshwater mussels over there, one that only costs five silver coins, and one silver coin." Liu Feng pointed to the big wooden barrel in the corner of the hall, and said lightly, "There are cheaper ones, as long as Five hundred copper coins, of course, the lower the price of freshwater mussels, the lower the chance of getting pearls."

He only put a few mussels with pearls in each barrel, and most of them were mussels without pearls. This would definitely make him earn money. As for the accidental high-quality pearls, it’s just a matter of luck. , It's really out of his consideration.

"Isn't this too exciting? If the freshwater mussels you buy don't have pearls, it won't hurt you for a long time?"

"But once the freshwater mussels you bought produce pearls, it's blood money."
