Chapter 94: The Appearance of the Bait
The bald head slowly unbuckled the buckle on the box and hugged the box with both hands.
What a ...... There is also a layer of red cloth wrapped inside.
Everyone in the room was silent, waiting for the bald head to reveal the mystery.
The bald head moves very slowly, and it is almost enough to whet everyone's appetite.
"Brother, we're all going to die of hunger, can you hurry?" said the owner of the jewelry store in a humble voice.
The bald head smiled, grabbed the corner of the red cloth, and ripped it off violently!
"Wow......" everyone in the room exclaimed. I was stunned by what I saw.
I saw a huge piece of apricot yellow amber in the center of the table, this piece of amber was crystal clear, very round, and irregular in shape, which should have been obtained by natural mining.
The most surprising thing was the center of the amber, where an unknown object resembling the shape of a human baby embryo was seen entrenched in the center of the amber.
Through the deep walls of amber, it is not very clear to see, but the blurring of this sense of mystery makes people feel even more itchy in their hearts, and a sense of awe arises spontaneously......
"This ...... What is this?" the owner of the jewelry store was also stunned, after all, he was a professional, and he had seen a lot of people on the market, and he was also shocked by this baby.
"Dude, I'll sell it first, can you tell me what is in it?" looked at the jewelry store owner with a bald smile and a word.
"It's supposed to be a fortuitous thing. Because most of the amber on the market is now, the ornamental value is extremely high, but the commercial value is almost none. But this ...... I really can't say well. Because most natural amber is also limited to some natural things, but this ...... How do I look like a baby!" Everyone was taken aback by the words of the jewelry store owner, and the timid waiter cried out "ah" next to him.
The bald head applauded the owner of the jewelry store: "Little brother, I really admire it." Brother, you are really well-informed, and what you say is very good!"
The owner of the jewelry store smiled and waved his hand, and asked the bald head very politely: "I take the liberty of asking, brother, where did you get this treasure from?"
smiled baldly and lit a cigarette: "Babies and people pay attention to fate." I can be said to have a relationship with this baby...... Got by chance. “
The bald head paused, and continued: "I have a hobby of climbing, and since I was young, I can say that I have visited all the famous mountains and rivers in China! “
"I joined a couple of hill-climbing clubs and made a lot of friends. They do everything from all walks of life, and many of them like jewelry as much as I do, especially jewelry from our own national culture. “
The jewelry store owner and Mr. Wang nodded.
"Last year, we were planning an expedition. Go climb a mountain in Southeast Asia. “
"Expedition? Is that a mountain that no one has ever set foot in?"
What Mr. Wang said is extremely true. This mountain is very famous in Southeast Asia, and the local language translates to mean skirt mountain. Because the mountain has a complex and diverse landform, not only karst landforms, but also complex volcanic potential, and there are many local rumors since ancient times, so the local people have always been in awe of this mountain, and if there is a catastrophe or a great drought, they will go to worship the skirt mountain. “
The bald head said that his mouth is like a river, it seems that he really has a set of stories, and the homesickness of those old Japanese people told me and my second uncle at the beginning scared me and my second uncle, and now there is a story of climbing the mountain to fool Mr. Wang!
I couldn't do it in my heart, I couldn't wait to expose the bald head on the spot and expose his face and conspiracy to the public, but the time is not yet ripe, and exposing it at this time will not only not help Mr. Wang, but will also expose himself.
I took a sip of tea, suppressed the anger in my heart, and continued to listen to the bald head and live in vain......
"There have been accidents on this mountain before, and after a few expedition teams went in, they lost contact. In the end, I found either death or madness...... So we're going to train a year in advance. “
"What kind of training are you doing?" asked the jewelry store owner.
"I have everything, the most basic is physical training, no matter how busy I am every day, I have to find time to run five kilometers, and there is mountaineering training. A few of us paid for a personal trainer and chartered a climbing gym to train every week. Also, I heard that there is a cave in the Skirt Mountain, so we also went diving specifically just in case. “
"Cave diving?" I asked.
"Yo, the lad knows how to do it! yes, cave diving. “
"That's amazing!" I said, giving a thumbs up and feigning admiration.
"Haha, yes, cave diving is one of the extreme sports. "The bald head is still proud.
"Then we trained intensively for more than half a year, who knew that there was a flood in Southeast Asia, and the entrance to the skirt mountain was blocked! It is said that there will be floods every year in the rainy season, so we plan to act in advance and go climbing the mountain as soon as the flood recedes!"
The bald head took a sip of tea and continued: "So the time has been advanced to the beginning of this year, when the season in Southeast Asia is the most comfortable. “
"But I didn't expect that there was something suddenly at home at that time, and I couldn't leave at all, so I didn't participate in that event. Maybe it's providence, thank God for saving my life......" said the bald head with a sigh.
"Did something happen?" asked Mr. Wang.
"Well, that time on the mountain, a total of five people went there, and only three came back!"
"Ah!" exclaimed Mr. Wang.
"Yes......" said the bald head, pretending to be very sad, "that mountain of death has taken away my two brothers." “
I almost threw up on the side, this guy is too good at acting! A few months ago, he didn't know which wronged boss he was busy cheating, and what else did he "take away his two brothers"!
The bald head held his forehead with his hands, looking grief-stricken, and the owner of the jewelry store handed over a tissue: "It's all unexpected, don't be sad, brother." “
The bald head nodded, and after a few seconds of silence, he said, "My brother who came back brought back this treasure." But none of them wanted it, and they always felt sorry for the two brothers who left. If it weren't for this treasure, they wouldn't have gone deep into the cave, and probably nothing would have happened. “
"Oh, I see. And how did this treasure get into my brother's hands?" Mr. Wang asked.
"Then one of my brother companies went wrong and needed money, and he was a thin-skinned man who wouldn't talk to me, so I made an excuse and brought this piece of amber back as collateral and lent him the money. ”
"I see, my brother is really righteous!" Mr. Wang said.
"Where and where, when it comes to righteousness, my brother Wang is the most famous in the rivers and lakes!"
The bald head is to compliment Mr. Wang when he takes the opportunity, and every time he says Mr. Wang, he is happy.
"Today happens to be our brothers' party, I want to bring this baby to open the eyes of the two brothers!"
"Yes, yes, it's unusual. ”
"Eh, brother, have you met someone in the industry?" asked the owner of the jewelry store.
"Passing each other" is the jargon of the jewelry industry, which means to find an expert to appraise and appraise.
"Hello, ...... is about that," the bald head stretched out five fingers.
"Five million?" answered the jewelry store owner.
"One more zero!" said the bald man arrogantly.
"Fifty million!" both the owner of the jewelry store and Mr. Wang expressed their surprise......
"Do you know what's in between, it's worth a lot here!" said the bald head, pointing to the humanoid thing in the middle.
Everyone was at a loss, and the bald head said: "This piece of amber is estimated by experts to be close to 100 million years old, it is a real thing, and this creature in the middle should be the embryo of a certain creature or paleontocreat!"
Mr. Wang, who was sitting next to me, moved his body and gasped: "Paleontology?"
"Yes, maybe it's an ape, maybe it's an orangutan, maybe it's a creature that's gone now......"
"Then this piece of amber is very valuable for scientific research!" said the owner of the jewelry store.
The bald head nodded: "Yes, I plan to treat him as a family heirloom, if it is not really operational, I will resolutely not sell it!"
"Hahahaha. The bald man's words made everyone laugh.
"Come on, let's do one!" everyone touched their glasses, but there were unspeakable thoughts in the splashed hops.
"Eh, Mr. Wang, I remember that you seem to love amber!" said the owner of the jewelry store, turning to Mr. Wang.
Mr. Wang smiled lightly: "Exactly." My favorite of all the jewels is amber, and I myself have a small amber collection. This piece is indeed extraordinary, and its commercial and cultural value is huge. Mr. Wang's eyes showed admiration, lingering around Amber.
"What my brother said just now was very sincere. If it weren't for the legend of this amber, I would have the heart to buy it hahaha. Mr. Wang quipped.
"Yes, my brother is really in love! I just heard that Mr. Wang, you like amber, so I brought you joy. “
"Haha, thanks thanks!"
The atmosphere of the dinner was very harmonious and friendly, but my heart was very chaotic, this time the ear thread was so long, so hard, I pinched a sweat for Mr. Wang and myself......
