Zheng Yuliang came to his door and told him that there would be a large and interesting market today.

In Zheng Yuliang's eyes, Chen Yun was just a tourist who would definitely be interested in this kind of rally.

Chen Yun was indeed somewhat interested in this grand occasion where people from all over the country gathered together for a market, so he agreed to it right away.

Now Zheng Yuliang was shouting that he wanted to set off.

After Chen Yun left the platinum at home.

At around five o'clock, Zheng Yuliang and I took the private car that had been arranged in advance and headed towards the rally venue.

As the dawn breaks, the sky turns a gentle blue-purple, and the air is filled with a fresh scent of the sea.

With full of expectations, the two set out on a journey to a large rally thirty kilometers away.

It didn't take long to reach the destination.

The scene before my eyes gradually became lively.

The gathering was held in a vast open space, surrounded by the gentle sea breeze, with the distant horizon and the sky interweaving into a beautiful picture.

Representatives from more than a dozen fishing villages set up colorful tents, like a colorful ocean. People from Qixi City also flocked in, making this already vibrant place even more bustling.

The seafood area is the most eye-catching, with a wide variety of seafood, from fresh and jumping fish and shrimp to crabs with bared claws and teeth, as if the entire underwater world has been moved to land.

Fishermen proudly displayed their trophies and shared fishing stories with customers. Every stall was surrounded by customers selecting ingredients and the sound of bargaining could be heard one after another.

Not far away, the area where pearls were opened from clams was also attracting everyone's attention.

The pearl oysters are arranged neatly, waiting to be opened by the hand of luck.

Every time the dazzling pearls were revealed in front of everyone, they would draw waves of amazement and applause. This exciting and exciting experience made many participants eager to try it.

Interspersed between these specialty stalls are various snack vendors and daily product sales areas, ranging from crispy and delicious snacks to handicrafts and daily necessities.

The enthusiastic cries of the vendors and the aroma of the food intertwined together make people unable to help but stop to taste or pick out a few items of their choice.

After Chen Yun and Zheng Yuliang moved among the crowd for a while, they parted ways.

Zheng Yuliang went to find something of interest.

Chen Yun also followed the perception of the transparent world and came to a small stall at random.

Under the tent, rows of bright lights are focused on several large aquariums. These aquariums are like miniature crystal palaces, quietly telling the mysteries of the underwater world.

The protagonists in the box are some amazing Arapaima.

It has a broad head and a deep mouth with rows of sharp teeth hidden inside. Even when it is still, it exudes a ferocious aura that should not be underestimated.

They cruise leisurely in a limited space, showing an innate kingly demeanor.

They were slender and powerful, with deep gray-brown skin, like ancient beasts lurking in the deep sea. The sunlight shone through the gaps in the tent onto their smooth scales, reflecting a faint metallic luster. Every time they swung their tails, they stirred up waves in the water, as if silently demonstrating their strength and majesty.

Chen Yun stopped here with slight interest.

The shop owner threw a small fish into the aquarium, which was instantly swallowed by the giant snakefish, and a lot of blood like a killing effect was discharged from its gills.

It looks exceptionally cool.

Looking at this scene, Chen Yun felt like raising a giant snake fish.

This thing looks pretty fierce, it should be fun to play with it.

Moreover, while buying it to raise for fun, it can also be used as an experiment on its "moisturizing" ability.

I haven't forgotten the experiment I wanted to conduct yesterday to use the "moisturizing" ability to stimulate biological evolution, but I haven't found the specific biological experimental subjects yet.

Let’s just give it a try with this giant snake fish.

If it is feasible to stimulate biological evolution, then what kind of beast will the giant snakefish become? He is very much looking forward to it.

Thinking of this, Chen Yun smiled and walked forward and said, "Boss, how much do you sell this fish for?"

····························

In a corner of the market, the crowd gathered into a tight circle, and the noise and curiosity intertwined into an invisible net, attracting the attention of passers-by.

In the center of the circle, a stall owner dressed in traditional clothing stood behind a simply built wooden table.

Huge pearl oysters are neatly arranged on the table, their shells glowing with an elegant rainbow luster, like a mysterious treasure box in the deep sea.

With a loud shout from the stall owner, the surrounding noise seemed to stop instantly, and all eyes were focused on the tools in his hands - a special knife and a thick glove.

The stall owner put on gloves skillfully, picked up a clam shell, and gently pried it at the gap. With a slight "click" sound, the clam shell slowly opened, as if revealing the secret of nature.

The children in the crowd opened their eyes wide, the adults held their breath, and everyone's face was filled with anticipation and excitement.

A fresh scent of sea water instantly filled the air, and then the stall owner carefully used a knife to open the clam meat, and pearls shining with soft light gradually appeared. Some were round like a full moon, while others were slightly odd-shaped, but each had its own charm.

The crowd burst into exclamations and applause, and the sound of camera shutters rang out one after another, recording this rare spectacle.

A man wearing a baseball cap saw this and put away the pearls with excitement on his face, as if he had made a fortune.

This made many people around eager to make a move.

"It seems that my luck is pretty good."

"I'll buy another one. Brother, do you want to buy another one to make up for the loss by taking advantage of my luck?"

The man in the baseball cap smiled and said to the person next to him.

This made the person he was talking about a little moved.

In a sense.

This scene actually has some of the feel of gambling on stones.

Jadeite gambling is a traditional custom that originated from the trading of jadeite raw stones. It is mainly popular in jadeite processing and distribution centers such as Ruili in Yunnan, Sihui in Guangdong, China, as well as jadeite producing areas such as Myanmar.

It is a high-risk, high-reward trading method, similar to a gamble in a stone.

Since the surface of jadeite raw stone is usually covered with a layer of weathered skin, it is difficult to directly observe the internal texture. Therefore, whether high-quality jadeite can be cut out from it becomes an unknown gamble.

The scene in this episode looks somewhat similar.

You pay to choose the clams, and then the stall owner will open them on the spot.

For most people who come to join in the fun, whether or not they can get pearls from the pearl jar depends entirely on gambling, and the probability of getting round and valuable pearls also depends entirely on gambling.

Wang Shanshan and her friend Deng Yuezhao also stood nearby, watching the scene curiously.

Since quitting her job as a host at Sichuan Traffic Radio, she has returned to the city where she went to college and has been hanging out with her old classmates until today.

I plan to play for another week before talking about work.

Today, the two of them came to this market specially to play. Seeing the clams being opened live, which they had never seen before, they both felt that they had gained some knowledge.

However, compared to her friend who became a teacher directly after graduation and has no social experience, Wang Shanshan felt that she had discovered some clues.

After standing here for a while.

She found that whenever the guy in the baseball cap made a move, he would basically get something good.

This led many customers around him to follow his lead and buy the pearls, but the success rate of others in opening pearls was obviously not as high as his.

Obviously, this guy is dragging his feet.

Wang Shanshan is absolutely sure about this.

She watched the man in the baseball cap tricking people around him into buying with him, and whispered to her good friend Deng Yuezhao beside her, "This guy almost always wins when he opens the lottery himself, but the man he tricked probably won't win anything."

Deng Yuezhao thought about what he had said and found that it seemed to be true.

It's just that the man in the baseball cap didn't hit the target 100%, and the people around him who paid to open the clams did not completely fail to open pearls.

So coupled with the lively atmosphere, people around temporarily ignored this point.

The two looked at the man who was fooled into paying another five hundred to open a pearl oyster.

As the pearl oysters are selected and opened.

The people around looked over expectantly, and shouted together in anticipation, “Out! Out! Out!”

But then, they all sighed with regret.

Obviously, this was another miss.

The stall owner turned the opened pearl oyster over and over again, but found nothing.

"Alas, brother, what a pity. You are just unlucky."

The man in the baseball cap patted the man who didn't get the pearl on the shoulder, with a comforting tone in his voice.

Of course, this is fake comfort.

Then the man in the peaked cap walked towards the stall with a smile on his face, muttering to himself, "Then let me pick one next."

His eyes darted left and right.

It's as if hesitating about what to choose.

"I'll pick... this one!"

After hesitating for a moment, the man in the baseball cap seemed to have finally found something, and was about to reach out with a smile.

However, Wang Shanshan, who had been watching for a long time, stepped forward and quickly picked up the pearl oyster before the man in the baseball cap touched it.

“I’ll open this.”

Wang Shanshan smiled and shook the pearl oyster in her hand.

This made the man in the baseball cap seem stunned.

"This...I picked this!"

"Boss, look!"

The man in the baseball cap glared and looked obviously angry.

Seeing this, the stall owner also stood up.

She seemed a little flustered and said, "Little sister, you are breaking the rules. This is indeed someone else's choice."

However, Wang Shanshan has seen a lot of things in the world, so she answered without fear: "I picked it up first, right? Stall owner, I'll open this one."

Her tone was particularly firm.

"Sister, this clam is different in appearance, but it's more expensive than the other 500 yuan ones."

"If you open it, it will cost four thousand!"

"How about this, if you don't want this one, how about I give you two others?"

The stall owner said after hesitating for a moment.

It looked like he was trying his best to persuade Wang Shanshan not to drive.

But Wang Shanshan smiled confidently: "Open, I like to play expensive things!"

talking.

She scanned the payment code and handed over the pearl oyster in her hand.

Then get closer to the stall owner and watch the whole process of opening the clams carefully to avoid any tampering.

When the stall owner saw this, he didn't say anything more.

He quickly and decisively used a knife to open the pearl oyster in his hand.

Including Wang Shanshan and Deng Yuezhao, everyone around them stretched their necks curiously to look.

But the result is...

Nothing!

There is nothing in the pearl oyster except the clam meat, not even a single irregular pearl.

See this.

There was a sigh in the crowd, and then they all started to pay attention to see if there would be the next person to open the clam.

Wang Shanshan fell silent.

The man in the baseball cap came up to me and said with a smile: "Hey, thanks, sister, you helped me save money."

The stall owner also glanced at Wang Shanshan with a smile, and then continued to sell pearl oysters to other people.

Although nothing was said.
