When he finally opened the box, I saw that inside of it was a transparent gemstone with a color that looked like a mixture or orange and yellow, with a slight tinge of black to it. Yes, this is amber. Not a pearl, definitely amber. This is such a distinct color that there is no way for anyone to mistake that gem for anything else.
Uwaaaah
It is so beautiful..
Roxanne and Sherry expressed their amazement at the sight of amber from both of my sides. Just like any other girl in the world, they seem to really like beautiful, sparkling jewelry.
A small amber gemstone like this can cost from a thousand to several thousand Nars. A necklace made form amber can cost tens of thousands of Nars. The price of this necklace right here is fifty five thousand Nars, while this right here is fifty thousand Nars. As for why the price of the both of them is so high, it is because large grains of amber, which are pretty rare in and out of themselves, have been used to make them. So, how about it?
Perhaps it was because he immediately smelled a possible business opportunity, but the cat-eared merchant immediately recommended the necklaces to Roxanne and Sherry after seeing how lively they reacted to the piece of amber that he shown to us. *Sigh* merchants will be merchants no matter where you go I guess.
No, we.
Well, I see no harm in looking at them, so feel free to do that if you want.
Understood. Then, we would like to take a look, if it is not a problem.
I urged Roxanne and Sherry to check out the Amber Necklaces if they wanted. Roxanne took the one that was worth fifty five thousand Nars, while Sherry checked out the one worth fifty thousand Nars.
I also took this opportunity to see from up close exactly how Amber Necklaces are made.
Oooh, I see. So they are made like that, huh? Well, that might be a simple method, but I cannot say that it is not an effective one.
The Amber Necklaces that the girls were looking at now were made from dozens of oval-cut and polished egg-shaped chunks of amber connected through a piece of string that was going right through the middle of every individual stone. Is that how such a necklace would have been made in modern day Japan as well, or perhaps this method is a little bit old-fashioned? I cannot say with absolute certainty, because I do not really understand jewelry and other types of decorations like that, because in my previous life there was no need for me to bother myself with these things, since there was no need for me to be wearing them when I was spending the days in my room all the time and I did not have a girlfriend who would wear such accessories.
Do not worry then, because I have just the product like that.
Not allowing Roxanne to let this matter go after her words which normally should be taken as a refusal that should end all talks here and there, the cat-eared old guy continued to press her on by taking out another wooden box and showing her yet another necklace that was inside of it.
Eh? Eeeeeh?
This necklace right here is made out of a highly transparent amber, which gives it a light color that is quite refreshing for the eyes, and it is one of the last few that I have for sale purposes here. Price-wise, it is going to be cheaper than the other two that you looked over because its colors are not as vibrant and intense, but thanks to that it should be a pretty good deal to be had.
No, I..
Roxanne was even more hesitant than before, but the merchant did not let go his assault. He definitely is a true businessman, not allowing any potential prey to escape once he already set his sights on her.
And what do you think about them Miss Customer?
Hmm, let me think I think that both of these necklaces are good-looking and exquisitely made.
After the old man merchant spoke to Sherry, she returned the necklace to him as well. She praised the products that he has shown to us, but the tone of her voice was as cold as ice. And that glare of hers. This is a glare that is very different from the usual one that she is giving me whenever I say some dumb or questionable shit. I have a feeling that I should be uncomfortable looking at her staring daggers at someone like that, but this time this time that glare of hers caused me to feel good, mostly because I was not on the receiving end of it.
Does that mean that you like them?
The merchant asked her, seemingly unfazed.
Maybe I would have, if it was not for the fact that I am a Dwarf, and the necklaces of this length, which are typically made with humans and the tall humanoid races in mind, making them a more than a little bit too long for us.
You are absolutely right. Most of the things here are made with Humans, Elves and other tall races in mind because they tend to like the necklaces of this length, but for the clients who do not fancy the long ones we also have something like that.
