Chapter 180 Tracking

Jiangxia opened a golden pearl this time, big, round and bright! No flaws whatsoever!

The pearl lay in Jiang Xia's palm, glowing with golden light as Jiang Xia fiddled with it.

Zhou's mother looked over with a smile and couldn't help but feel happy: "Is this the King of Pearls?"

Jiang Xia smiled: "It should count."

Anyway, it is definitely the best among golden beads!

Collectible jewelry!

Not all pearls can be called jewelry.

Not all jewelry is worth collecting.

Jiang Xia felt that this one should be over a thousand and could be auctioned, so she happily stuffed it into her pocket.

Tian Caihua: "..."

She also wanted to ask Jiang Xia to take a look.

Tian Caihua was stimulated again and couldn't help but pick up another pearl oyster and open it herself.

This time I finally have it!

Her heart was racing and she carefully picked it out.

The result was a misshapen, dull pearl with more blemishes than the spots on her face! But it’s huge!

Tian Caihua: "..."

Zhou Chengxin couldn't help shouting at her: "Can you please stop touching my pearls!"

Tian Caihua didn't dare to touch it anymore.

She stepped back from a distance and quietly watched them open the pearls.

Without Tian Caihua's hindrance, Zhou Chengxin opened several pearls one after another, some good, some average, and one over 8mm in size, which was close to perfect.

Zhou Chengxin breathed a sigh of relief!

Finally a big one!

Tian Caihua also breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhou Chengxin opened the whole bag of pearls. There were three pearls above 8mm, several 5mm or 6mm pearls, and the others were below 4mm.

Tian Caihua couldn't help but look at Jiang Xia.

In fact, not every pearl oyster in Jiang Xia can produce pearls. She has also tried to open two or three pearls without pearls in succession, but most of the pearls she produced are large beads of 7mm or above 8mm, with few flaws and good luster.

The most important thing is that Jiang Xia opened more than one bead king, and she stuffed at least three in her pocket to prevent her from seeing them!

Out of more than fifty pearl oysters, Jiangxia only found five or six small pearls with defects and six without pearls.

Such luck, people who didn't know it thought she had raised the pearl oyster!

The pearl yield rate and quality of Zhou's father and Zhou's mother's pearls are similar to those in Jiangxia, but generally not as big as those in Jiangxia.

If you put three bowls of pearls there, it's clear who has better luck!

Tian Caihua is sour again!

There are so few bowls in her house! So shabby!

She deeply doubted life and wondered if the pearl oysters in her house were leftovers from them!

Father Zhou smiled after looking at everyone's pearls: "Yes, A Xin should be able to sell them for a few hundred yuan. Xiaoxia, are you going to go to sea tomorrow? If you don't go to sea, do you want to take the pearls to the market and sell them?"

Mother Zhou nodded: "Yes, it's better to sell it as soon as possible, so as not to keep it unsafe at home. Now the family is building a house, and there are many people coming in and out."

Jiang Xia: "I won't go to sea tomorrow. I will go to the market to sell in the afternoon and deliver a batch of small fish to the train station."

Zhou Chengxin: "Xiao Xia, please help me sell the pearls!"

Tian Caihua immediately said after hearing this: "Xiao Xia and I will go together! It's safer this way."

Jiang Xia: "Okay."

It just so happened that she didn't want to help them sell it, so as not to be thankless.

And if you go with Tian Caihua, you can ask Tian Caihua to help her pick out the fish larvae. She is very strong.

We can't let her just take advantage of it!

After the pearls bloomed, Tian Caihua took the pearls home. Zhou Chengxin and Zhou's father transported the pearl oysters back to the living cabin on the ship to raise them, and then put them into cages in the sea to raise them tomorrow.

Jiangxia also taught Zhou's mother to weave a kind of net specially designed for raising pearls, and then hung them in the sea to raise them.

That kind of net is actually very simple. It is to weave a net in a rectangular frame, and then weave pockets one after another on the net.

When the time comes, stuff the successfully inserted pearl oyster into the pocket of the grid and hang it in the sea water to raise.

However, pearl cultivation is very long, complicated and troublesome, and there are many processes.

Pearl oysters can produce pearls because foreign objects such as sand and other hard objects enter their bodies. Pearl oysters are stimulated by foreign objects and produce a self-defense reaction, secreting a smooth crystal substance to wrap the foreign objects.

Moreover, pearl oysters will continue to cover foreign objects with secretions, layer after layer, until thousands of layers can form a pearl.

Therefore, the high yield of artificially cultured pearls is because the pearls are inserted into the core.

This core also needs to be prepared. Jiang Xia plans to grind some small round cores out of shells. This is also a troublesome process.

It's too late today. Then we will see which pearls are not alive and use their shells to grind the cores.

Zhou Zhou had been watching them open the pearls. Just after taking a shower and returning to the room, Jiang Xia found her free time and went to find her.

Zhou Zhou was about to go to sleep when he saw Jiang Xia coming in and sat up: "Little aunt."

Jiang Xia smiled and said, "Is Zhou Zhou used to it at school?"

Zhou Zhou nodded: "Get used to it." "Are the teachers at school strict? Are there any scolding people?"

Zhou Zhou shook his head: "No."

"Are the classmates in the school friendly? Has Zhou Zhou met any bad classmates?"

Zhou Zhou glanced at Jiang Xia and shook his head: "No."

Jiang Xia understood and touched her head: "Go to bed early!"

***

Jiang Xia got up at six o'clock the next day and planned to secretly go to school with Zhou Zhou.

During breakfast, Zhou Zhou ate very slowly, and Zhou's mother urged her twice: "Zhou Zhou, eat quickly, it's seven o'clock! Do you have a labor class today, Friday? What do you want to bring?"

"dustpan."

"Then remember to take it."

"Okay." Zhou Zhou finished the last mouthful of porridge before going back to the room to get his schoolbag.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

It took me ten minutes to get my schoolbag, and at 7:10 I picked up a dustpan in the yard and went out.

In the first two days of school, Zhou Zhou was afraid of being late, so he went out before seven o'clock every day.

Guangzong Yaozu's brothers were even earlier. They didn't eat breakfast at home, so Tian Caihua gave them money and asked them to go back to school to buy something to eat.

The school does not start morning reading classes until 7:45, but most students arrive at school before 7:30.

Jiang Xia waited for Zhou Zhou to go out for two or three minutes, then told Zhou's mother to go to Zhou Zhou's school and then followed him out.

There were many students carrying schoolbags on the road. Jiang Xia quickly saw Zhou Zhou because she walked very slowly.

Jiang Xia followed from a distance.

The school is in the village next door, so we walk on a village road with many houses on both sides. People from several nearby villages are from the same production team and all know each other. In fact, the way to school is quite safe.

Until there was no more students on the road, Jiang Xia glanced at the time on her watch, which was seven forty-three.

Only then did Jiang Xia see Zhou Zhou running towards school in a hurry.

She also started running.

Zhou Zhou ran into the school to the sound of the bell.

Jiang Xia ran to the school gate and watched Zhou Zhou running into the classroom while panting.

Jiang Xia ran for an estimated eight hundred meters, which really cost her her life!

Jiang Xia panted and followed into the school. School management in this era was not so strict, especially in the village schools. You could come and go as you pleased.

The classrooms in the school are all made of mud bricks, with grass growing in the corners.

The playground is dirt and there is a lot of grass growing around it.

That’s why there are labor classes every week, and students have to bring brooms, hoes, dustpans and other tools from home to school to clean up the school’s grass regularly.

Jiang Xia didn't find anything and decided to stay in school this morning.

She came to the guard room and talked to the guard, and stayed there, talking to the guard and paying attention to the situation in the classroom.

The school is not big, with only a row of L-shaped teaching buildings. There is only one class for each grade and a total of eight classrooms, one of which is an office and one is the principal's office.

Jiang Xia waited until the last labor class and found no other abnormalities, but Zhou Zhou sat in the classroom the whole time and didn't even go to the toilet.

In labor class, all students went out to weed.

Each shift is responsible for one area.

Zhou Zhou brought a dustpan, and the grass removed by her classmates was put into her dustpan and asked to be poured out.

Zhou Zhou held a dustpan of grass and walked towards the garbage dump in a corner behind the teaching building.

In that corner, Jiang Xia was sitting in the guard's room out of sight, so she walked out of the guard's room.

Zhou Zhou just turned a corner from the teaching building and saw the male classmates.

She backed away unconsciously.

"Where's the money I asked you to bring?"

"I have no money, I really don't have any money!"

"Isn't your family very rich? Your brother-in-law drives a big boat! If you ask him to take it, or take it secretly, no one will know."

Zhou Zhou shook his head.

Thank you to those who voted and rewarded!

It’s a new month, keep asking for votes!

I will add more updates when the time comes!

My children at home will start school tomorrow, so my update in the morning may be a little late.
