[The Story of Pearl Girl]

[Episode 33]

Mr. Qin,

how's it going?

Come over.

In glassmaking,

cooling is the most crucial part.

Its shape, its form...

all determined in that instant of cooling.

Don't rush it.

Is making glass this difficult?

I only know about jewelry,

not glass.

Let's hope it works.

My hands are rusty.

I haven't done this in years.

I've done my best.

No worries, Mr. Qin.

There will always be a next time.

No big deal.

If it fails once,

we'll try again.

Yes, Ms. Su is right.

Yingtao, Shiqi,

check if there's anything that needs fixing.

Ms. Su,

could there be something wrong with the kiln?

Maybe the heat's off?

Mr. Qin is the expert on this.

We don't know much either.

Maybe it's just been too long for my father.

Let's try again.

What should we do?

I mean,

my hands may be rusty,

but the skills are still there.

Look!

It worked!

- It worked! - It worked!

Let me see!

Mr. Qin, you kept us in suspense!

I thought it was all for nothing.

Ms. Su, look!

It worked.

This is just as good as the glass I saw in the West.

Mr. Qin, you haven't lost your touch!

Thanks to Miss Su's support.

In all of Yangzhou, no other shop

dares to invest like Clear Mind does

to make its own glass.

Miss Su, thank you.

You've shown me I still have a purpose.

Ms. Su, congratulations,

your wish has come true.

It came true.

Thank you, Mr. Qin.

Everyone at Clear Mind,

our wish has come true.

From today onward,

Clear Mind has its own glass.

Yes, indeed!

On a joyous day like this,

why the teary eyes?

We should celebrate

and have a proper meal!

Ms. Su, you're treating us, right?

Yes, Ms. Su. I want a feast!

- Let's go! - Whatever you want today.

- Alright, on the Ms. Su's tab! - Mr. Qin,

take a rest.

Let's go!

Let's go, Yunxiu!

Be careful.

- Let's go. - Thank you, Mr. Qin.

Let's go.

Watch your step.

Ms. Su, hurry up!

Take it slow.

In the future, if you experience

temporary blindness or numbness,

it means the illness is progressing.

Eventually, it will lead to permanent blindness,

then death.

Master Yan.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Let's go.

Let's go.

A dignified inspector like you coming to Clear Mind,

it can't just be to watch a kiln opening, right?

I came because I have something to ask you.

Someone's here to take Xu Nanying away.

Mr. Wang from the Court of Judicial Review.

You knew about this, right?

Mr. Wang is just a pawn.

He wants to take Xu Nanying,

but we'll make sure he can't.

Simple as that.

Yan Zijing,

I knew it was you who poisoned him.

A minor thing.

No need to thank me.

You actually expect me to thank you?

What you did was illegal.

Once Mr. Wang leaves,

another Mr. Li will come,

then an Mr. Zhang after that,

then another Mr. Li.

Eventually, someone will come

who won't let you keep your head up.

What will you do then?

But you can't just poison people.

Can't you stop being so rigid?

Yan Zijing,

you keep breaking the law,

again and again.

Have you ever thought

about what would happen

if you're exposed one day?

You're so by-the-book,

but if criminals go free because of it,

what then?

Anyway,

at least for Duanwu's sake,

rein in your tactics.

Are you listening?

Got it.

The Black Dragon Bandits killed Shrimp, Cao Da.

Did you tell her about it?

I've told her everything.

But with Duanwu's nature,

she'll definitely seek revenge.

You'll protect her, right?

Of course, I will.

As a friend, of course.

You don't sound sincere.

I never got the chance before,

and maybe I won't in the future.

But as for you,

the misunderstanding is cleared up now.

So why are you still hesitating here?

It's too late.

Listen, Yan Zijing,

as long as you're alive,

there's still a chance.

What's all this "too late" nonsense?

Aren't you alive, too?

Isn't it too late for you, too?

I just can't talk sense with you.

Less talk, more work.

Look, the water's boiling. Add some now.

Here I am, an inspector, cooking at your place.

If you're happy with it, so be it.

Recently, fewer traders from the West are bringing beryl.

Beryl stones are getting scarce.

Prices are slightly up.

Speed up,

and ride this price wave

to finish and sell the beryl stones.

That way, we're on the safe side.

But we can't just rely on selling beryl stones.

Zhenlang Pavilion is practically empty now.

We're down to selling worthless items to make up the numbers,

like flower hairpins and rouge.

It's not a sustainable plan.

Don't worry.

Once everything is ready on your end,

I'll go home and swallow my pride to ask my dad.

To keep things under wraps,

he'll definitely hand over some other jewelry

for Zhenlang Pavilion.

Mr. Wu.

Come in.

Mr. Wu,

Kang Ming, the wealthy merchant from Kang, arrives in Yangzhou tomorrow

to procure jewelry for the royal family.

Is this reliable information?

Yes, absolutely.

The other guild directors have heard the news.

You want to sell this batch to the State of Kang?

Isn't this a perfect opportunity?

But all we have is beryl stones.

They come from the Western Regions,

so why would the State of Kang buy them?

We could bundle them with other jewelry as accessories.

We can't miss this chance.

Tomorrow, you'll come with me.

Yunxiu,

what are you holding?

A new piece?

Yes.

Let me see it.

Yunxiu, let me have a look!

This is a glass sample.

Duanwu is taking it for business negotiations tomorrow.

Yunxiu, just one quick look!

Or at least tell me about it.

I swear I won't touch it.

You absolutely won't?

Look, Duanwu modified these designs over and over,

and these colors...

Aren't they unique?

Mr. Qin and I worked for days and nights

to perfect it.

There's a whole pile of flawed glass

stacked up in the workshop.

This glass is so rare,

so beautiful.

If those ladies see it,

they'll definitely rush to buy it.

They're sure to love it.

I love it too.

There's only this one set,

so if it breaks, that's it.

Yunxiu, I won't break it.

You just promised you wouldn't touch it.

Acting cute won't work now.

But there's a new set of jewelry in the workshop,

and no one's tried it on yet.

How about giving that one a try?

Let's go, then.

Let's go!

Not angry anymore?

Not even a little.

It's really beautiful, Yunxiu.

How did you make it?

Please,

just let us in.

Just one look at Mr. Kang.

Everyone should get a fair chance!

Exactly!

Mr. Kang rarely comes all the way from the West.

Just let us in to see him.

Just let us in!

How many times do I have to tell you?

[Yangzhou Jewelry Guild]
Only guild directors are allowed inside.

Who do you think you are?

Mr. Kang is here in Yangzhou to buy jewelry,

and everyone has a chance to compete.

Why can't we go in?

Yeah!

Why can't we go in?

Move aside!

Step aside!

Mr. Wu, please.

Mr. Kang is a prominent merchant from the West,

treated with high regard in the State of Kang.

Ordinary merchants wouldn't even catch his eye.

If anyone brings in

poor-quality jewelry,

it would disgrace the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild.

Keep an eye on them.

Don't let riffraff disturb Mr. Kang.

Yes, Mr. Wu.

Ms. Su, what should we do?

Just wait.

He'll have to come out eventually.

I came to Yangzhou

hoping to buy genuine treasures.

Don't waste my time

with these cheap items.

I have finer pieces.

- Perhaps you'd like - Yes.

to take a look?

Greetings, Mr. Kang.

Mr. Kang,

my father is Zheng Shiyuan, head of Yangzhou Jewelry Guild.

I am Zheng Wu from the Zheng family.

May I know what type of jewelry you wish to purchase

on this visit to Yangzhou?

You can ask around.

In all of Yangzhou, Zheng's Jubao House leads the way.

We can find any jewelry you want.

So you're Zheng Wu from the Zheng family?

That's correct.

Even in the Western Regions,

I've heard of Zheng's Jubao House.

Let me be frank with you.

I'm here to buy a batch of top-quality beryl stones.

Pardon my curiosity,

but you're from the West,

why come all the way to Yangzhou

to buy beryl stones?

The West is unstable now.

Even if there are beryl stones, they can't be transported out.

It'd take a lot of manpower.

I came to Yangzhou

just to try my luck.

Mr. Kang, you've come at just the right time.

In Zheng's Jubao House,

we have everything you need.

This is Mr. Kang from the Western Regions!

Mr. Kang!

[Yangzhou Jewelry Guild]

Move aside!

Mr. Kang!

Mr. Kang, since it's an honor to have you here,

why not stop by our shop, Clear Mind?

A female merchant in the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild?

The Yangzhou Jewelry Guild is an open-minded place.

Though I am just a woman,

I've earned a place here.

Clear Mind may be a small shop,

but we do have some fine jewelry.

I invite Mr. Kang to take a look.

Indeed, this Clear Mind

has glassware in all kinds of designs.

It's quite popular among common women in Yangzhou.

I often travel between the Tang Empire and Persia,

and I'm quite fond of glass myself.

However, my purpose this time is beryl stones,

beryl stones as blue as the sky.

Beryl stones?

Ms. Su, do you even know

how much a beryl stone is worth?

For top-quality beryl,

one stone is worth a fine horse.

This isn't the kind of business

a small place like Clear Mind can meddle in.

So please, Ms. Su,

don't waste Mr. Kang's time.

While I may not have beryl stones,

Mr. Kang,

I do have glass as clear as spring water.

Crafted with Tang techniques,

the only one of its kind in Yangzhou.

Tang craftsmanship?

Hold on.

If there's anything lacking,

I'd be honored if you could offer guidance.

Nowadays, only glass from Persia

and the Arabian regions is valuable.

Some even consider them gifts from heaven.

Do you know why?

They're crystal-clear, surpassing even quartz.

Yes. But as for your glass items,

the color is impure, and the quality is lacking.

You rely solely on design for appeal.

In the marketplaces,

they might make a small splash,

but they'd never catch the eye of nobility.

Such poor goods

would only taint Mr. Kang's sight.

Mr. Kang,

in Jubao House, we have both top-quality beryl stones

and glass as clear as crystal.

Please, do visit Jubao House.

Another day, perhaps.

I'm a bit tired today.

Mr. Kang!

Su Muzhe,

you went through all this effort just to embarrass yourself. Was it worth it?

Embarrass myself?

Just getting Mr. Kang's feedback

is a reward in itself.

I'm curious to see

how long you can last

on Mr. Qin's glass alone.

Let's go.

How's Xu Nanying's situation?

Thanks to you,

Mr. Wang is stuck there, frustrated every day.

How are things on your end?

This deal could lead to a long-term trade with the State of Kang.

The Zheng family surely wouldn't let that pass,

but of course, they'll proceed cautiously.

Ever since Kang Ming spread the word

about wanting to buy beryl stones,

all of Yangzhou has gone crazy.

The price of beryl stones shot up as a result.

The problem is,

now we can't find any beryl stones.

From what you're saying,

are you planning to enter the beryl business?

What's wrong with it?

Just focus on your glass.

That'll stretch you thin

if you try to juggle both.

You know I'm stretched thin,

yet you're being so wasteful?

Haven't I put in my share of effort, too?

And you...

I feel like

beryl stones aren't essential.

Look at how high the prices are now.

It's definitely not just for Kang Ming.

I'm afraid someone's already

started buying them up in secret.

We need to be careful.

But who's buying them up,

we don't know.

Master Yan,

who do you think it is?

Who's buying them up?

No need to be like that.

I'm the one buying them.

And I used real money to pay.

All spent at high prices.

Wait, what are you doing?

I'm just trying to tell you,

Zheng's jewelry shop dominates Yangzhou.

No other merchant dares compete with him.

So with this order from Kang Ming,

the Zheng family will keep stalling.

But if Clear Mind joins the competition,

the Zheng family will feel the pressure.

But I think

you should focus on making glass.

Don't get distracted.

I can manage both.

Kang Ming is a famous merchant from the West.

Silk, spices, jewelry...

any profitable trade,

he's involved in it.

This time,

he's indeed here to buy for the Kang royal family.

The State of Kang...

What's wrong with the State of Kang?

Yan Zijing once said he's from there.

Did you confirm it?

I did.

Kang Ming

is practically the wealthiest man in Kang.

Most items used by the Kang royal family

come from him.

Could it just be a coincidence?

I don't think so.

Back in Guangdong,

Yan Zijing plotted things,

hoarding pearls and bringing down the Cui family.

I'm afraid he's trying the same trick on the Zheng family now.

If this is indeed Yan Zijing's scheme,

the rise in beryl prices

actually benefits us.

Don't forget

that batch of goods included a lot of beryl stones.

After you dismantled, modified, and sold them,

then...

Yan Zijing

would be shooting himself in the foot.

But I estimate that batch of beryl stones

won't be enough to satisfy Kang Ming.

Then we have no choice.

We'll take it one step at a time.

For now, moving the stock is the priority.

A servant.

Come in.

Mr. Wu, the master requests your presence.

Our Clear Mind glass is high-quality and affordable,

spreading by word of mouth throughout Yangzhou.

We've truly opened up the market

for women's accessories.

But sales have been slightly dropping these past few days.

Ms. Su, take a look.

Ms. Su.

Over the last few days,

those who've come to Clear Mind

to buy glassware...

Pure and flawless...

What about making glassware?

Mr. Qin's glassware,

combined with Clear Mind's designs,

could sell very well.

Persian glassware is the best.

Even if Clear Mind makes some,

it will be far inferior.

Besides,

the Zheng family specializes in Persian glassware.

Why compete?

Could we experiment with colors?

Even in Zizhou, creating colorful glass

could take years, even decades, to master,

and the output can't be guaranteed.

So, which path should we take?

Are you insane?

Why do you keep sneaking around?

I walked in openly.

What are you spying on here?

Spying?

What's wrong with you?

Not feeling well again?

It's nothing.

Lately, I've suddenly

been unable to see things clearly.

Wasn't that expected?

Mother,

I pleaded with him for days

before your father agreed to see you.

Don't mess it up again.

Got it.

Your father's scolding is for your own good.

What kind of person is Xu Nanying?

Alright, I understand.

I'm going to see Father.

Father, you wanted to see me?

Sit down.

Regarding that wealthy merchant from the West, Kang Ming,

how did you find him after today's interaction?

He has sharp insight and knows the ways of trade.

He specifically asked for beryl stones.

He only wants beryl stones?

Yes.

Father, during the recent Lady Huan case,

Zhang Jinran publicly accused Zheng Si

of fencing goods for the Black Dragon Bandits.

Given Kang Ming's true intentions,

shouldn't we be cautious?

Keeping that batch of goods here

is nothing but trouble.

Selling it to the West is the safest option.

Right now, Zhang Jinran is focused

on Xu Nanying's case.

Let's take this chance to clear it out.

Also, our family's Western trade route is cut off.

If Kang Ming is trustworthy,

you should seize this opportunity

to build a relationship with him

and secure a future for our family.

In that case, I'll go back

and urge Shijiu to expedite the redesigns

to ensure everything goes smoothly.

Send out invitations,

and call everyone together.

Tomorrow, I'll represent the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild

and host a banquet for Kang Ming.

I'll take care of it.

This is the Zheng family's old residence.

Take your things and get out!

Don't bother our Zheng Wu anymore.

Zheng Wu let me stay here.

If I leave, it'll be on his orders.

How shameless can you be?

Wu has treated you more than fairly.

He even gave you

the whole Zhenlang Pavilion,

and yet you're still not satisfied.

He's willing.

Gather her things and throw them out!

The Cui family is already in shambles,

and you still won't stop?

Are you here to ruin my son's life too?

What do you have to be so proud of?

You're so young, yet seducing men,

pretending to be the legitimate daughter of a noble family.

You're just like your crazy mother,

always putting on airs as if she's the legitimate wife.

She can't even bear a son.

The Cui family line will die out!

Insult me if you want,

but don't insult my mother.

You and your mother are cut from the same cloth!

How dare you push me!

Lady!

Lady, let me see.

- Blood! - Blood...

You jinx!

Hurry! Go get Wu!

What do we do now?

Call a doctor!

I'm bleeding!

Get Wu right away!

Yes!

Hurry and get Wu!

Go call Mr. Wu! Now!

You jinx!

Shijiu.

Shijiu.

What's going on?

My mother...

She's always like that.

When she's angry, she acts like a child.

Don't let it bother you.

Having Zhenlang Pavilion is enough for me.

What's a few insults?

It's nothing.

Tomorrow, my father is hosting a banquet for Kang Ming.

Prepare yourself and accompany me.

Hosting a banquet for Kang Ming?

Shouldn't we be more cautious?

It's wise to be wary,

but we can't miss this chance either.

We'll make a decision after the banquet.

Mr. Kang, it's a long journey here.

I hope it hasn't been too tiring!

I've long heard of Mr. Zheng's great reputation.

To meet

with all you guild directors of Yangzhou today,

I am truly honored.

Is this your first time in Yangzhou, Mr. Kang?

Come, try this fine Qionghua wine.

Please.

Mr. Kang, this is Soft-Cooked Eel in Sauce,

and this is Stewed Pork Ball in Brown Sauce

Both are famous Yangzhou dishes.

Please have a taste.

Mr. Kang, why do you seem downhearted?

Have I failed to host you properly?

Mr. Zheng,

I am troubled.

I traveled south all the way from Chang'an,

through many places,

yet I still couldn't gather

ten hu of top-quality beryl stones.

Ten hu?

This...

I have some,

but not much.

I can try to gather more.

I have some, too.

I have some as well!

I have some, too!

We have some, too!

But with such scattered sources,

how many orders would I need to sign?

It's rather troublesome.

My dear Kang,

with the combined power of the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild,

ten hu of beryl stones is no great challenge.

How about this,

let Jubao House take the lead

and sign a contract with you.

We'll gather the beryl stones from each source.

Wouldn't that be much more convenient?

Does that sound acceptable?

Of course, that's fine.

The Yangzhou Jewelry Guild is united.

We're all one family here.

Everyone,

do you have any objections?

We will follow your orders!

With this deal,

let's all prosper together in the long run.

Step aside!

As fellow guild merchants,

why does Jubao House get to monopolize

and take all the profits?

How rude!

Yingtao, such disrespect.

Greetings, Mr. Kang.

We're all merchants of the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild.

Each should play to their strengths.

Why should one business dominate

and oppress the others?

Oppress?

As the guild head,

I'm doing this

to prevent unnecessary losses

from reckless stockpiling

and fierce competition.

Isn't that right, everyone?

Mr. Zheng is very considerate.

- You speak wisely. - Indeed.

Yes, absolutely.

Yangzhou is vast,

with so many merchants here.

Since Mr. Kang wants beryl stones,

he's bound to compare options.

Now, Clear Mind

also seeks a fair chance to compete.

Su Muzhe,

you weren't invited to this banquet,

yet you came uninvited.

You're certainly shameless.

In business,

being shameless is essential.

If I'm not shameless,

how could I do business in Yangzhou?

Right?

Ridiculous.

There are dozens of merchants in Yangzhou.

Do you think just anyone can sit here?

Zheng Wu.

We're all guild merchants here.

There's no distinction of rank.

Ms. Su, if you wish to join,

simply gather ten hu of top-quality beryl stones.

You, glass seller,

what business do you have here?

Exactly, do you even have beryl stones?

Clear Mind has beryl stones.

Mr. Kang,

Clear Mind now possesses beryl stones.

I ask you

to grant us a fair chance to compete.

Ms. Su, this isn't the place for you.

Please leave.

Just a minor interruption.

Let it not discourage your spirits, my dear Kang.

Come, let's empty this cup.

Cheers!

Cheers.

Don't embarrass yourself.

Let's drink!

The Qionghua wine is wonderful,

but our guest from Kang might prefer

Persian Sanlejiang Drink.

Zheng Wu.

Yes?

How did you manage things?

How are there always intruders disturbing our guest?

It's my fault, Father. I'll take care of it...

Sanlejiang Drink?

In Chang'an, Sanlejiang Drink is everywhere.

But sadly, I haven't seen it since coming south.

You're from the State of Kang?

Indeed.

An old friend in a foreign land lifts the weight of my lonely drink.

Mr. Kang, would you join me for a drink?

Very well.

Sit by my side!

Thank you, Mr. Kang.

Let me introduce you.

The Ms. Su of Clear Mind here is...

a dear friend of mine.

Sit by my side too!

Mr. Zheng, I'll trouble you to make the arrangements.

Meeting a fellow countryman in a foreign land,

we must catch up.

You're too kind.

Someone,

bring seats.

Here!

The men of the State of Kang are all strong and brave,

capable of wrestling lions and tigers!

And the dancers there are graceful and beautiful.

Their dance moves swift like falling snowflakes.

Exactly!

Here!

What a pity,

I've been trading with nomads since childhood,

and I haven't returned in so long.

I miss most the golden peaches of our homeland.

They're large as eggs, sweet and juicy,

truly a heavenly fruit.

Cheers!

Ms. Su,

you're a friend of Master Yan,

so that makes you my friend as well.

Come, let's drink.

I'll give you a fair chance to compete.

Thank you, Mr. Kang.

Cheers!

Everyone,

I'm here

to select items for the Kang royal family.

Our royal family

values not only the beryl stones,

but also

the styles of Tang beryl.

Let's see who can meet our needs.

I'll drink to that!

[Yangzhou Jewelry Guild]

This banquet tonight...

Disgusting, revolting!

Su Muzhe had a point.

Why should they monopolize everything?

Truly overbearing.

This is just bullying.

What can we do?

Hasn't the guild been like this for years?

For people like us, just getting scraps is lucky.

So what are we?

Just here to entertain like songstresses?

That Su Muzhe does have some skills, though.

She actually managed to team up with Yan Zijing.

With those two in the mix,

things might get interesting.

Let's go.

After seeing today's events,

it's clear that the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild isn't that solid.

Looks like the other merchants

are starting to have second thoughts too.

The Zheng family's desperate to fill their losses.

Their actions are quite ugly.

What's on your mind?

I'm thinking...

the Zheng family has held sway over Yangzhou for too long.

It might be time to stir things up.

Add some fuel to the fire,

and it'll burn even brighter.

No rush.

After tonight's banquet,

they should be less inclined.

Seeing us work so hard to win this deal,

the Zheng family should feel the pressure too.

What I didn't expect, though,

is that the price Cui Shijiu paid for Zhenlang Pavilion

was to sell stolen goods for the Zheng family.

What's wrong?

Are you pitying Cui Shijiu?

Not exactly.

Everyone makes their choices,

their own sacrifices.

You've really grown a lot.

I believe

the Yangzhou Jewelry Guild's future

will have a place for you.

Are you praising me?

Haven't I always praised you?

Fine.

I'll take that as a good omen.

Since you've said it,

we'll make sure Mr. Kang's beryl stones

are perfect.

Isn't that order for the Zheng family?

Why are you bothering with it?

In business, you can't focus on just one order.

Since Mr. Kang is here,

we need to make sure Clear Mind

holds a place in his mind.

You're getting smarter by the day.

Fine.

When I return,

I'll have Kang Ju bring you the beryl stones.

Let's go.

Wait.

Don't you think the scenery here is quite nice?

And it's rare for us to have a moment's peace.

It feels like we've never really taken the time

to appreciate Yangzhou's nights.

Look,

tonight's moon isn't hidden by clouds.

Add some more wood.

Ms. Su, take a break and have some tea.

Here, drink some water.

Mr. Qin, Yunxiu,

here are the new designs.

Alright.

Here.

Okay.

[Palace of Pearls]

Mr. Qin, look.

This one can be made with beryl stones...

Let's try again...

Alright!

[Design details]

The elegance of the Tang Empire

truly brings out a unique charm

in these Western jewels.

Of course,

this is all thanks

to Ms. Su's exquisite designs.

Truly remarkable!

Mr. Kang,

since it's a fair competition,

perhaps you'd also like to view the jewelry

from Zhenlang Pavilion?

Certainly.

Go!

You actually have beryl stones of this quality?

Large as an egg, sky-blue in color,

one in a million, a true rarity!

Mr. Kang, you flatter me.

♪Half in regret, half in longing♪

♪Radiant memories tint your gaze♪

♪The world's bitterness♪

♪Still accompanies my dreams♪

♪Drifting afar on the shore of your life♪

♪Quietly watching over you♪
