It's really a coincidence, the brothers found a fine piece of jade, intending to sell it for some silver coins, and just so happened to encounter the shopkeeper pondering over that bead."

"Upon closer questioning, it indeed seems to be that Lost Treasure, and it appears there's quite a bit of stock."
