Chapter 153 Chapter 153 (Two in One)(1/4)
Because we are receiving distinguished guests from all over, in order to prevent accidents, the receptionists sent by Kirigakure Village this time are all ninjas.
There are many chuunin and jounin among them.
Among them, the seaside and shopping streets are relatively more risky areas, so the largest number of Nakajonin are assigned to take charge.
It's just that Kisame Kisaki's face was really not suitable for receiving customers in the front, so he was assigned to be responsible for the logistics work of Pearl Oyster.
However, no one expected that such an exaggerated order would come.
"Three, three hundred?"
The ninja in charge of reception was dumbfounded on the spot.
"That's right, let's go."
The nobleman raised his head and took a comfortable sip of the fresh coconut juice in his hand.
The attendant beside him also had a very discerning eye and stepped forward to pay.
Reception Ninja: "..."
Dried persimmon Kisame: "..."
Both of their faces were just a little stiff, but they were both a little panicked in their hearts.
What should I do? There are not even 300 pearl clams on the stall now!
After all, it is a trial operation, and there are only so many customers in total. They feel that these are enough for a day or two.
'what to do?'
'What to do?'
‘Not enough pearl clams!’
While the two were moving, they desperately communicated with their eyes at an angle that no one else could notice.
‘...I’m going to dig it right now!’
What should I do if it’s not enough? Dig.
Kisame Inikasaki made a decision.
Otherwise, what should we do? Can we tell our distinguished guests, ‘We are not prepared enough’, to disappoint them?
This is the key to whether Kirigakure Village can transform.
How is it possible?
It’s impossible not to have enough, and it’s impossible not to have it.
At worst, he would plow all the waters of the Kingdom of Water, and he would be able to satisfy the wishes of the distinguished guests.
Chigaki Kisame thought so, but the movements of his hands did not stop.
Basket after basket of pearl clams was carried.
Then a few more ninjas took it, and in front of the nobles and other tourists, they used the kunai in their hands to quickly pry open the pearl clam and dig out the pearls inside.
"This is big!"
"Purple! Here are purple pearls!"
As people exclaimed one after another, pearls were taken out one by one, washed and placed on the plate on the counter.
Pearls of different sizes and shapes glow with a lustrous luster under the light. When piled together, they truly show people what "jewelry" means.
Among them, some pearls with special colors or large sizes also appear particularly conspicuous.
As a native of the country of water, the great nobles will certainly not be short of pearls.
To him, the pearls in front of him were definitely not of the highest quality, but the feeling of seeing them being opened with his own eyes was completely different from the finished products that others could see directly in front of them.
Especially after the receptionist Yuyue kindly mentioned:
"You're all here, don't you want to experience the joy of harvest with your own hands?"
Although the idea of 'opening clams with your own hands' does not suit the status of a great nobleman, it is indeed very convincing to 'come here even if you come'.
It’s just a fun picture, so what’s not to like?
So he readily agreed, and enthusiastically picked up a large pearl clam handed over by the ninja. After putting on protective gloves, he began to pry the pearl clam with a kunai under the guidance of the ninja.
Although the pearl clam had actually been processed to make it easier to open before it was brought up, as a nobleman with no fingers on the spring water, naturally he would not say that he could pry it open as soon as he took the kunai.
In fact, he didn't even hold the kunai correctly.
But the people present would not be so shy as to remind the nobles what the ‘correct way to hold a kunai’ is.
Everyone is just cheering for the noble Lord.
"That's right! That's it!"
"Yes, that's right, almost! Just a little bit close!"
Such unprecedented harmony again
In the atmosphere of everyone's concerted efforts to encourage and expect, the noble noble finally pried open the carefully selected large pearl clam in his hand.
"There are pearls!"
"It's quite big!"
And by coincidence, a pearl actually came out of this pearl clam, which was larger in size and rounder in shape than other pearls.
This time, the nobles were even happier.
He didn't care about trivial matters such as whether the price of this pearl was comparable to his expenses along the way, he would only be pleasantly surprised by the unexpected harvest in front of him.
Things you have worked hard to obtain with your own hands have a special meaning.
Not to mention the harvest is so huge.
"This is really the biggest pearl clam we have ever seen since we tossed so many pearl clams."
Even Ugetsu didn't expect this development.
‘Coincidence’ is a wonderful thing – but who doesn’t have a nice word to say?
She quickly changed her words and started boasting.
——In fact, they didn’t open two in total.
But opening one is still opening. The previous one is indeed not as big as this, so what they said is not a lie.
"Shall I put it away for you?"
"No, find a box and I'll take it with me myself."
The noble noble looked at the pearl he had opened and liked it very much. He even refused the attendant's suggestion to put it away and chose to carry it himself.
He decided that this pearl would be his lucky pearl from now on.
Let him think about it, what should he make of this pearl?
It’s a bit tacky to pair with gold and silver.
It would be a good idea to have a ring of gems around it.
When we go back, we have to let the best craftsmen in the world do this work.
The nobleman was thinking as he happily watched the ninjas open the other pearl clams they bought.
With this ‘big harvest’, everything else is just a trinket.
It doesn't matter whether we ship or not, whether we ship more or less.
He is happy!
And seeing the great nobles having so much fun, other curious bystanders were also ready to take action.
"I'll give you ten too."
"Give me fifty!"
"Who are you looking down on? Come and get a hundred!"
Although the customers were more and more active in supporting the business, the expressions of the ninjas in charge of the pearl clam stall became increasingly ugly.
Nothing else.
They really don’t have that much inventory!
How could anyone think of this!
Although pearls are also jewelry, at least 90%, if not 100%, of the people who come to participate in the event are from nobles or wealthy families. How could there be a shortage of pearls?
So when Ugetsu said he was preparing this stall, the Kirigakure Village ninjas didn't actually have much expectations.
But they forgot.
When it comes to 'opening pearl clams', 'pearl' is just one of them.
‘Opening’ is where the real fun lies.
