There was no shop owner in Mutton Lane who did not know Academician Du.
"If you want, 800 RMB." The shop owner did not say much.
"Oh." Academician Du answered and said, "It's quite expensive."
As he spoke, Academician Du threw aside the ugly stone like he did not care about it at all.
The shop owner quirked his eyebrows. He carefully looked at the stone and remembered it.
Zuo Cidian knew what was going on when he saw this situation. Academician Du was using a strategy, and the shop owner was familiar with his tricks.
"Doctor Ling, look at this piece." Academician Du picked up another piece and showed it to Ling Ran. He then whispered beside Ling Ran's ears, "This is raw unpeeled beeswax. I guess that if we peel it off and keep a portion to make a sculpture, we can probably earn 30% to 50% more."
