"Irish, I mean, you can't save too much money for me in this way, but you will waste much time," said Joseph while laughing at Irish.

"It seems you are good at abating a price," continued Irish.

"Of course, after all, I am a businessman," replied Joseph.

"Okay, you have to help me to abate the price later," said Irish, who wore a big smile.

Joseph gazed at her intently, gently rubbing the back of her head. "Don't stay in the sun for too long. You'll get a tan." 

"Okay, let's go," replied Irish briefly, then headed to the crowd with his hand in hand.

Joseph was like a Triton of the Minnows.

They kept hanging out and passed by a shop with extraordinary decorations.

They were beguiled by the romance and exotic atmosphere of the store as they walked in. What's more, they were also shocked by the shop owner's exaggerated makeup. Her curly hair was dyed red, and she wore her hair loose.

The woman was dressed in a long robe, making her look like a witch. Her blue eyes were shining when she talked with them. She was enthusiastic, while Irish felt it was because she was interested in Joseph. After all, he always attracted women's attention. The woman kept gazing at Joseph while Irish just remained silent.

Irish looked around the shop and found there were many jewels, among which crystal was the majority. Many various stones were also displayed on the shelf.

"What do you like?" asked Joseph softly. He ignored the woman's passion and stepped to Irish.

Irish pointed at a bracelet that was dazzling under the light.

The woman took out the bracelet with a smile and spoke highly of her good taste. And then, the shop owner began to introduce its specialty. The bracelet was made of several stones in different shapes. The most conspicuous one was the green leather inlaid with a glittering diamond.

"It is a small diamond," said Irish in a low voice.

Although small, it was dazzling and served as a decoration for this bracelet.

Taking over, Joseph looked at it calmly. The shop owner was aware that they were interested in this bracelet, so she hastily started introducing each jewel of it. Joseph said nothing while the woman kept indulging in verbiage.

Irish rubbed the small diamond while the woman hastily explained, "It was the top layer of cowhide with the designer's logo on it. In addition, turquoise and lapis are particularly good. As you can see in the crystal, they are clear and free of impurities."

The bracelet was special, and it was Irish's favorite style. Reaching out, Irish took over the bracelet and asked, "How much is it?"

The woman looked up and down at Joseph secretly, and finally, her eyes fell on his watch.

"Three thousand," replied the shop owner, whose eyes shone after seeing Joseph's costly watch. 

"Three thousand?" Irish was shocked.

"Yes. It is not expensive since it is made of rare jewels," said the shop owner with a big smile.

Irish looked carefully at the bracelet and then took a glimpse at Joseph.

"You said it is worth three thousand?" asked Joseph without a mood swing.

"Yes," replied the shop owner briefly.I think you should take a look at

Joseph said nothing while the woman continued, "It is a good gift to present it to this beautiful lady. It is a special gift," added the woman.

Irish remained silent since she wanted to see how he bargained. When she was wondering what he would say, Joseph said abruptly.

"It is important for a businessman to be honest with the customers. But you inlaid a fake diamond in it, and now you charged such a high price. It is not proper to do that," said Joseph slowly, word by word.

Startled, Irish opened her mouth slightly.

The shop owner was also shocked by what Joseph said. But soon, she calmed down and said, "Sir, don't talk nonsense. Why did you say that this is a fake diamond? This is a new shop, which is why the bracelet is so cheap, or the price should be higher. Some other bracelet without diamonds is much more expensive than this one."

Joseph showed a faint smile and then continued, "Well, now that you are selling a diamond bracelet, you must have a diamond detector."

Hesitant, the woman replied, "No, I have no diamond detector here."

"Okay, it doesn't matter because I can tell you the texture of it. It is zircon, but not diamond, so it doesn't have the value of diamonds." Joseph explained patiently. A moment later, he then continued, "What's more, as for the top layer of the calf leather, I also checked it carefully but found it is just common artificial leather. As for the lapis lazuli...." Joseph stopped and then squinted, taking a closer look at it.

The shop owner looked a little bit flurried, waiting for Joseph to continue.

"It is not a fake lapis lazuli," said Joseph finally.

The woman secretly relieved herself after hearing this.

"But it is in poor quality and contains many impurities, so this lapis lazuli only serves as an ornament but has no collective value," added Joseph.

The woman's face lost its color, but she said nothing.

"The crystal is okay, and at least it is a natural crystal. But I am sure you know that it is valueless," said Joseph, who ignored the woman's annoyance in her eyes.

The shop owner was oozing sweat, but soon she turned unpleasant and said impatiently, "Are you here to buy something or just make trouble?"

"Of course, we will not make trouble here, and we also want to buy something. But you must be honest with the customer," replied Irish, who was flattered.

"It sounds so absurd. Why did you say it is a fake diamond? You are not authoritative," said the shop owner, who took away the bracelet from Irish. The woman gnashed her teeth and continued, "It is a genuine good at a fair price. Get out of here if you don't want to buy."

Irish couldn't help but laugh since she noticed the annoyance in the woman's eyes, but she said nothing and just waited for Joseph's response.

Joseph stopped the shop owner from putting the bracelet back on the shelf and then looked around. "Are you sure it is a true diamond?"

"Of course, I am sure. What's more, the lapis lazuli is of good quality," replied the shop owner firmly.

"Okay, now that you are sure it is a true diamond. I am going to buy it," said Joseph.

The shop owner was cheered by Joseph's sentence, while Irish was shocked.

'What he wants to do?' Irish thought to herself. Irish clearly knew Joseph was a past master in recognizing the diamond with his sharp eyes.

"Okay, please wait for a moment. I am going to pack it for you," said the shop owner in a cheerful yet polite voice.
