Hu Jingguo saw a beautiful tassel near a stall. It had a white-colored porcelain head that had a braided green-colored cord. Below the head, lay numerous threads beaded with pearls. "I want to buy this. How much is it?" Hu Jingguo queried, picking the tassel. Lei Wanxi astonishingly looked at her.
"Master, it's 80 cents. The pearls used in this are real," the seller with a broad smile replied.
Lei Wanxi took the tassel from Hu Jingguo and looked at the pearls. "Are you sure about your statement?" Lei Wanxi keenly observed the pearls. "Because I think they are fake," he added and looked back at the seller who gulped.
"Master, you have a good eye for this. Give me 15 cents," replied the seller and smiled. Hu Jingguo took out the money from his pouch and handed the 15 cents to the seller. He then put the tassel in his pocket and walked ahead with Lei Wanxi.
