Dong Xuebing stood in front of the walnut stall silently.
The stall owner was still shouting to attract customers:"This year's big Chicken Hearts are good. Come and try your luck!"
Someone in the crowd picked a pair of walnut fruits over: "Iwant this pair."
"Ok!" The wife of the stall owner took 200 RMB from thatperson and threw it into a plastic basket. She took out a small knife and startto cut away the flesh of the green color fruits. Soon, the flesh and skin ofthe fruit were cut away, and she washes the seed in a pail of clear water andstarts to scrub away the remaining flesh with a plastic brush. After cleaningthe seed, she took out a ruler and measure the seed. She said loudly. "The seedhas some dark spots, and one of them is 37, and the other is 39. It's not apair." This size was average, and the seeds must be at least 42mm to worthsomething. The dark spot on the fruit was considered blemish, and even if theseed was big, but dark spots will lower the value.
After hearing these, that buyer turned and walk away.
Soon, another person bought a pair of Lion Head fruits, andthe seeds were 39 mm and 41mm. These were not good too.
After that, someone opened a pair of 36mm and 38mm seeds.
The next person got 40mm and 39mm. This was considered apair.
After standing there for a while, Dong Xuebing gave up theidea of trying his luck. So many people had bought these fruits, and there wasnot even one that is more than 42mm. The chances of a 46mm appearing were evenslimmer. He knew that even if lady luck was on his side, it was also near toimpossible.
But Dong Xuebing was not willing to give up.
10 minutes...
30 minutes...
1 hour...
Dong Xuebing stood in front of the stall for almost 2 hours.The walnut fruits were getting lesser and lesser.
There were at least 100 Lion Head walnut fruits, and now,there were less than 30 remainings. One basket of Chicken Heart walnut fruits wassold in less than 2 hours. The stall owner brought a new basket from the backof the stall. The business was bustling for the stall owner. But Dong Xuebingstill have not seen any Lion Head that was more than 44mm. The biggest thatappeared was 43.8mm. But after the seeds were dried, it will shrink slightly,and the finished product should be at most 43mm.
These were too small!
All the seeds were too small!
At noon, Dong Xuebing went to KFC to have his lunch beforereturning back to the stall.
10...
20...
50...
At 4pm, Dong Xuebing was exhausted. Not only his eyes wereblurry, but his legs were also numbed.
At this time, there were lesser people, and the stallowner's wife looked at Dong Xuebing and asked with a northeast accent. "Youngman, do you want to try your luck?" She had noticed Dong Xuebing standing theresince morning. He was standing there for almost 8 hours and did not even buyone fruit.
What should I do? What should I do now?
Dong Xuebing was panicking. He had finally found what he waswaiting for. If he missed this opportunity...
Oh! Damn! I even forgot about it!
BACK!!!
...
Dong Xuebing felt slight giddiness, and the scenes aroundhim changed!
"How much for these Lion Head?"
The stall owner replied: "Normal Panshan Lion Head is 400RMB a pair. The bigger fruits are more expensive. There are 600 and 1,000 RMBtypes."
The big sized man extended his arm to pick those two bigyellowish fruits on the left of the basket!
Dong Xuebing immediately leaned forward and grabbed thosetwo yellowish fruits. "I want this pair! Boss! Help me cut it!" Dong Xuebinghad noticed the yellowish and slightly rotten fruits from earlier. He was surethat the ones in his hands were the same as earlier.
That man frowned and look at Dong Xuebing. He thought tohimself. "What's the hurry?" He moved aside and looked at the fruits on theright of the basket.
The stall owner looked at the fruits in Dong Xuebing's hand."800 RMB."
Dong Xuebing immediately paid him. His heart was beatingvery fast.
Please, don't let the seeds have blemishes! The seeds mustnot be damaged by insects... Please!
The stall owner had started to cut away the flesh of thefirst fruit.
First cut...
Second cut...
Third cut...
Soon, the crowd stirred. A Lion Head had appeared!
There were no blemishes and no dark spots!
46.8mm!!!
The big sized man grumbled under him breath. Damn!
The stall owner and his wife were shocked by this young man.This young man had been standing there from the morning and did not even buy asingle fruit. The moment he buys, a 46mm appeared! He could spot the differencebetween the walnut fruits?! Impossible! The stall owner had been selling walnutfruits for years and could not tell the difference from the exterior!
