Worried she might get serious, I said: "I also heard from others that the stones over there in Hetian are beautiful and might sell for money, but we don't really know if that's true. So just pick more, in case you find some good ones. Isn't it better to sell them at a good price later? You don't have to give us money now. When these stones are sold in the future, we'll split the money between our two families, how about that?"
