Chapter 1111 The Mussel Beads of the Fertile Water River Surprise the World
Then, Puzhu led the group to a pothole.
Pu Zhu was the one who introduced them.
Coincidentally, these two team members happen to be brothers, one is called Pu Zhen and the other is Pu Zhu, and their ancestral home is Hepu, Beihai.
Hepu is a famous city in history and an important port on the Maritime Silk Road.
It's not really important, and it's not because it's a seaport city.
It is famous at home and abroad because of the abundance of pearls there, and even a famous idiom "Hepu returns pearls" originated in this city.
To say that the pearl production in this city began in the Western Han Dynasty.
However, after experiencing natural and man-made disasters such as wars and regime changes, the production of pearls here has declined significantly, and the quality of pearls is not as good as a turtle.
In the process, the Pu family has always adhered to their ancestral profession of pearl hunters.
Although they see that there are fewer and fewer clams and the like that raise pearls, the quality of pearls is getting worse and worse, and the size of pearls is getting smaller and smaller, there is nothing they can do.
Faced with the greed of the human members, the two brothers are powerless.
Faced with this disappointing situation, the two brothers finally broke the traditional professional confinement of their family and came out to join the expedition.
Because the two of them are skilled in water and have a high level of water combat ability, they were included in the expedition team.
Being able to join the task force today and participate in underwater military operations is also a coincidence of the two of them.
What really helped the two of them was that they were given the special equipment they needed for underwater operations.
This set of equipment makes the brothers like fish in water.
Compared with their previous underwater equipment, this set had to build a building in the sky and put it on the roof, and the original ones had to dig a deep pit in the ground.
What made the two even more overjoyed was that the two of them shared this abyss, gathered the first-class fertile water mussels, and produced super-first-class fertile water beads.
Both of them are senior professionals, and their knowledge of pearls is definitely one of the best in the expedition.
The preciousness of this pearl was immediately recognized.
When they joined the expedition, they learned that the largest pearl in the world weighed about thirteen pounds and was worth about sixty million dollars.
With some effort, they found not only the mother body that produced the pearls, but also the huge pearl storage room.
That is, the pile of pearls they have now arrived.
In fact, according to Puzhu's understanding, these pearls are piled together, which is actually the garbage treatment plant of Woshui Mussel.
The pearls that are precious to those people are actually diseases such as clams, which are equivalent to human tumors.
They have carried this tumor all their lives, tormented by it, and it is so hard, so big, squeezing space inside the shell of the mussel, it must have given the clam that raised the pearl endless pain.
It is only after death that it is possible to relieve this chronic disease.
It turns out that according to the custom, the dead clam will be eaten by the living ones.
But the only part that can be eaten is the fleshy part of the clam shell, and the pearl cannot be eaten, it is even harder than the shell.
Since you can't eat it, it becomes a worthless waste, so find a big pit and throw it all in it.
The shells are not edible, but they are used for other purposes, such as sheltering the young clams from the wind and rain.
So what really gets thrown away are the pearls that don't have much use.
To say that they are useless, of course, is from the position and perspective of those fertile water clams.
If you eat it, you can't bite it, - it's too hard to cover it from the cold and rain, and it still takes up space if you keep it.
Thankfully, there was nowhere else to throw the garbage, otherwise it would have gone somewhere, and the expedition would not have gotten these windfalls.
Baili Liangliu and the others looked at the big pit and couldn't help but be shocked again.
It turns out that there are still many pearls in those waste pits.
The part that was dug up only took up a small half.
Now, it's time for a headache.
These pearls of at least 200 million dollars are piled up there, should they be taken out and taken away, or should they be ignored and continue to waste like garbage?
Looking at this Pu Zhu's earnest face, if Baili Liangliu said a word, he really dared to be anxious with him!
Violent destruction of heavenly things can't be as angry as you.
Forget it, dig it out, let's talk about it.
In fact, Baili Liangliu pushed the blame to Puzhu as an excuse, and his own heart was also extremely urgent to see how evil the giant pearls here were.
His observation power is incomparable, others may not have noticed, but he can see the same thing, the pearls in the pit are better than the ones dug out!
He also pondered, this may be after years of precipitation, the big ones are all sunk to the bottom, and the small ones are naturally floating on top.
The things that Puzhu dug up were of course the top to start, and needless to say, those were the smallest.
If this observation is correct, the smallest pearls in this pearl pit are thirty pounds, and the largest is not known how big it is.
With the decision made, Baili Lianglu said to the team members who came with him: "You five, help Pu Zhu dig pearls, move faster! The rest of the people, follow me to find Pu Zhen and see the progress of his elimination of alien animals." ”
Hearing Baili Liangliu's instructions, Pu Zhu's worries came to naught, and he shouted very happily: "Obey!"
plunged headlong into that pit of pearls.
The five members assigned to follow him also jumped down.
According to the direction that Pu Zhen pointed out just now, Baili Liangliu and the others soon came to the bottom of the waterfall, that is, the place where those clam clams liked to be smashed the most, and saw a man who looked almost the same as Puzhu was in a daze there.
Baili Liangliu looked, your business here is not finished, shouldn't you be in a hurry?
Qiao Zhi shouted: "Pu Zhen, what is the problem? The leader has come to inspect!"
Pu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said to Qiao Zhi: "Hello boss!
Qiao said straightly: "you! I'm here, it's the biggest boss here!"
Saying that, he pointed to a hundred miles of good horses.
Pu Zhen paid attention to Baili Lianglu at this time, and of course he knew it, but he didn't focus on it at the first time, so he also came to a sentence.
"Welcome to the Boss!"
Qiao asked straightly, "Ah Zhen, are you done here, have you killed all those damn xenomorph creatures?"
Pu Zhen's face changed obviously: "Except for those fertile water mussels, other aquatic animals have been killed by us, only those huge river mussels, which have not yet ...... But come and see!"
As he spoke, Pu Zhen flew up, rising more than a foot high, and then hit horizontally, blocking the waterfall with the largest flow in the middle.
The waterfall was blocked, diverging down his head and feet, revealing a section of rock below that had been covered by the waterfall.
Baili Liangliu and the others raised their eyes and couldn't help but be stunned.
The steep rock vertical wall of the rock face is densely crawled with river mussels!
The huge river mussels, neatly arranged in layers and in an orderly manner, were like soldiers in training to be paraded there.
What are they doing here?
How do they do it?
Under the surprise, there are questions, and everyone is full of question marks.
At this time, Pu Zhen turned over and folded down with a harrier, a little embarrassed.
He was able to hold on for so long with the best of his strength, and the power of the impact of that waterfall was really strong.
Quickly took a breath, and Pu Zhen explained to everyone.
"I don't know exactly why they line up against the current like this, but according to my observation and understanding of their habits, because they all want to find the best position to be hit by the water of the waterfall, they naturally think that the closer they are to the water source of the waterfall, the better, and in this case, they must follow the direction from which the water source came from, and this purpose can be achieved! Of course, this kind of understanding is not possessed by every individual mussel, in fact, they do not all need to understand why they do so, as long as there are individuals who understand, there are pioneers who set an example, and those young and ignorant people who follow suit, it is estimated that they also have a very strong herd mentality. ”
Baili Lianglu said: "Do they really have such wisdom and determination?"
At this time, Pu Zhen completely rested and grinned: "I don't know! This is all my blind thinking! If the boss has any high opinions, the boss's high opinion shall prevail." ”
Baili Liangliu was very useful when he heard this, and laughed: "What is my lofty opinion as a layman? It is subject to your expert's explanation, and your expert is responsible for any mistakes!"
He asked Qiao Zhi again: "Can you see it?" Expert Puzhen is reluctant to attack these river mussels! What is your opinion?"
Qiao Zhi said: "Although the wealth value here is huge, and the industry potential of raising mussels and pearls is endless, but we can't forget the righteousness, those river mussels are undoubtedly heterogeneous creatures! Those fertile water pearls are also heterogeneous products, in my opinion, it is better to destroy them clean! They are clean, our hearts are also clean, and our hearts are entangled in the future." ”
Baili Liangliu didn't even look at Pu Zhen, weighed it in his heart, and made a decision.
"In principle, kill the mussels and keep the pearls! However, those river mussels should not be moved for the time being, and leave them to Hua Sheng, and after he is sure that there are enough specimens for the experiment, the others will be killed; and those pearls will not be left until Hua Sheng does some tests to confirm that there is no major damage; until it is further determined what storage they are transported, these pearls will be left in this place and not moved! Since this place needs to be guarded and supervised, Brother Pu Zhen, you can stay, and after the processing is over, you can leave here and return to the brigade. ”
No one objected to the arrangement of Baili Liangliu.
On the one hand, his decision is final, and no one can oppose it.
On the other hand, it is also a moderate decision that takes care of all aspects in the current situation, and it is acceptable even if you are not satisfied.
After Baili Liangliu finished speaking, he left this waterfall area, intending to go to the next abyss, which was the flooded abyss.
After a few steps, he turned a corner, and went to see the brothers who were carrying the pearls, and if they were done, they were to be stopped and walked together.
At this time, I suddenly heard Pu Zhu shouting.
"Come and see! This pearl is amazing, it's all fine! Hurry up, let the boss come and take a look! Yes, the big boss, the second boss, the third boss!"
To the surprise of these family pearl pickers, it was definitely a real surprise, Baili Lianglu and Qiao Zhi immediately launched and ran over as if flying.
Unexpectedly, there is someone faster than them, it is that Pu Zhen.
It turned out that he was the third boss, Puzhu's eldest brother.
He also knew that his younger brother, who was experienced and calm, would not make a fuss, and if he said that he couldn't do it, he would definitely not do it.
So he thought about it from a professional point of view, and the discovery that surprised his brother was definitely something that shook the past and the present.
The three of them arrived almost at the same time, and they got a sneak peek together.
Sure enough, it was a huge pearl, roughly estimated, no less than a hundred catties!
Except for its size, its outer layer is golden.
I have never seen such a size or color like this.
Regardless of whether it is from a professional perspective or from the perspective of an ordinary consumer, I have never seen it.
Regardless of whether or not there was any contamination that might be brought by xenomorphs, several people jumped down together and carried out the huge golden pearl of fertile water.
Place it on the flat ground where the pearls are stacked for further observation and appreciation.
Against the backdrop of the mountains of large pearls next to it, this giant is even more outstanding.
The pearls are so big, how big should that clam be?
The one-to-ten body ratio between pearls and the purpose of raising them must be no problem, right?
However, the question has become a mystery, because all the clam clams that appeared in the garbage collection place have long since died, and there are no flesh and bones left.
This huge Fertile River Mussel Bead was brought out and displayed to the public, so everyone was amazed around it, especially the two brothers Puzhen and Puzhu, who even sent out an earth-shaking exclamation with an expert level.
Pu Zhu said: "If this is placed in the future generations, the era when the top luxury goods of natural jewelry are hard to find, this gold-colored hundred-pound pearl can cause the world's rich people to come to the starry night, can attract the world's rich women to seek each other, can make the heads of state put down government affairs, can lead to the great powers to start a war! This is really a masterpiece of creation, this is absolutely a wonder in the jewelry industry, see it with your own eyes, this life is enough!"
Seeing that the little brother was full of emotion, Pu Zhen was even more passionate, and raised his hands with his face to the sky: "Ah......"
Qiao looked at the two of them more flamboyantly, this is more of a tirade posture, if it is usual, it is not impossible to give the two of them a concert, but not today!
"Okay! Don't! Let's go first, you two brothers stay, take care of those fertile river mussels, in the dead of night, you two can do whatever you want, as long as those river mussels can tolerate it, don't settle accounts with you!"
Then he said to the other expedition members, "Let's go!
Everyone left in a gust of wind.
Walking far away, I also heard the elf sister laughing constantly: "Brother Zhi, Brother Zhi, you are really funny......! Ahhhh......h
