Chapter 1237 Pink Pearl, Blue Pearl

Zhang Fengming was taken aback. Are leaders this direct now?

It's like drawing a pie in the sky – all talk and no action. But if that pie is something you can eat right away, then it doesn't really count as drawing a pie.

This is his achievement, and Leader Li cannot take it all away. This outcome is quite good.

Liu Meilan quickly descended to the area where pearl oysters were being farmed. She retrieved some larger pearl oysters from the seabed at a depth of over ten meters and placed them in a net bag around her waist. Then, she went to the vertical farming area and used a knife to pry out more than a dozen of them.

About ten minutes later, Liu Meilan surfaced and quickly climbed onto the yacht.

Having prepared the tools in advance, Liu Meilan opened a pearl shell in front of everyone. Her movements were quick but gentle, revealing many large and small pearls of varying sizes inside.

Liu Meilan selected a larger bulge, carefully cut it open, and squeezed out round pink beads. Her eyes lit up, "These beads are so beautiful!"

Zhang Fengming eagerly took the pearl from Liu Meilan's hand, feeling it in his hand. "Meilan, pearls come in pink? Aren't they only white, off-white, and black?"

Liu Meilan smiled and said, "That's usually how it is, but I noticed that the rocks around here are red, and the water tank is also filled with algae with a high iron content, so is that why it has this color? I'm not quite sure, I'll write it down and have an expert come and study it!"

Upon hearing this, Manager Li quickly asked, "Mr. Liu, what's the price of these pink pearls? Are your white pearls cheaper or more expensive?"

Liu Meilan replied, "I don't know either! I'll open a few more and take these pearls with me so the people at the research institute can help study them. If the color doesn't fade, then the value might be higher! If the color fades in a short period of time, the price might be lower!"

"Based on past practices, I assure you that pearls of this quality are not cheap! Don't worry, on average, you can earn 2 to 4 yuan per acre! It mainly depends on the quality of the pearls grown; the higher the price, the more you earn."

Upon hearing this, Leader Li breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good!"

Liu Meilan harvested the larger buds from the pearl oysters, removing the pearls underneath, and placed the smaller ones inside to allow them to continue growing.

After opening more than a dozen pearl oysters, I found that half of the pearls were pink and shimmering. The rest were mostly white, or off-white, with very few pure white ones.

Liu Meilan is now almost certain that it is related to the environment of the island.

However, this is a good thing, as single-color pearls have limitations. Pearls of more colors allow for the design of better products.

"These pearls are so beautiful!" Liu Meilan exclaimed, her girlish heart beginning to flutter as she looked at their color.

To ensure authenticity, Liu Meilan went into the water again and retrieved dozens more pearl oysters, about the same as before, half of which were pink pearls.

Liu Meilan couldn't wait to take out her phone and call Wang Lemei. "Lemei, I'm inspecting the pearl farming base here. Our No. 1 farming base is producing pink pearls, and only half of them are produced! I'll have the harvested pearls sent back to have their luster and specific effects tested."

Hearing this, Wang Lemei was slightly taken aback. "If you like it this much, it must be pretty good! Oh dear, I'm still in my postpartum confinement period, I really want to go back to work right now!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Meilan quickly stopped her, "If you keep doing this, I won't tell you anything in the future! This is good news, that's why I couldn't wait to tell you! You should take good care of yourself during your postpartum period, not a single day less for a whole month! The vice president will handle company matters, and if there are any decisions she can't make, she will report to you! Besides, Xiaoyu is helping to keep an eye on things, so everything will be fine!"

Wang Lemei thought about it carefully and realized that everything was proceeding smoothly in terms of production, management, and marketing, so there was nothing seriously wrong.

The good news Liu Meilan brought is even more beneficial to their company.

"Okay, I understand!" Wang Lemei smiled. "I will definitely take good care of myself during my postpartum period and make sure I'm in great shape!"

If it were someone else, Wang Lemei might worry that her shares and company would be seized.

However, Wang Lemei felt completely at ease when facing Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu. This was because both of them were more capable than him, or more precisely, they looked down on her business.

Although the Huo family owns a larger share of Dafu Jewelry, Liu Meilan and Tang Xiaoyu are also shareholders, and they need her to manage Dafu Jewelry.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Meilan turned to Zhang Fengming and Leader Li, "In my experience, the pearls are of very high quality. I won't lie to you, and I won't try to lower the price! We'll be buying pearls in October. All the pearl oysters that meet the standards need to be transported to a sterile workshop for harvesting! These pearl oysters can be reused, but we need dedicated personnel to maintain them. Therefore, the construction of the sterile workshop cannot be taken lightly!"

Zhang Fengming quickly replied, "Under the instructions of our leader Li, the construction of the sterile workshop is progressing smoothly! It is now in its final stage, and in a few days, we plan to invite experts to conduct an acceptance inspection! In addition, we have also recruited temporary workers locally to ensure the completion of pearl harvesting and pearl oyster maintenance."

Leader Li also came to his senses; this had created 300 jobs for the local area.

Although it's only a three-month job, the salary is very high! For an average family, this is a very good job.

"We will definitely do our best to provide the relevant services!" Leader Li assured.

Liu Meilan expressed her gratitude, saying, "That's wonderful! We buy pearls and pay on the spot, we will never owe the farmers any money!"

Leader Li was very satisfied. "Then we'll have a pleasant cooperation! Comrade Zhang Fengming, you'll be accompanying me on my inspection of the aquaculture sites within our province. Feel free to contact me if you encounter any problems!"

Zhang Fengming has been busy all year, isn't it all for this day?

"Don't worry, leader, I will definitely complete the task!" Zhang Fengming assured him.

After Liu Meilan sealed these items away, she asked Leader Li to send them back to Shenzhen before heading to the second breeding site.

The pearls grown at the second cultivation site were quite normal, mostly white or off-white.

Because the purchased oyster seedlings were two years old, they were already quite large and contained pearls! After another year of cultivation, the pearls inside grew even larger and were quite plump.

Liu Meilan was very satisfied, because the pearls were not special. She simply sealed these samples, marked them, and moved on to the next one.

It took three whole days to finally arrive at the last aquaculture site in Haixi Prefecture.

This time, Liu Mei was pleasantly surprised again. The pearls cultured in this place were mostly blue.

There are light blue, dark blue, and royal blue, in various shades, but the light they emit is very captivating.

Liu Meilan stared wide-eyed.
