Chapter 100: Encountering the Sky-high Price Again
ps: I want a ticket, and suddenly I have no words, so I'm going to be a little bit of a chatter
Li Yi perked up, and hurriedly followed what Wu Haitao taught him, put the tail of the rod against his waist, and then began to choose the line or reel according to the size of the pulling force. @
After a while, Zheng Shusen first noticed his movements, rushed over excitedly, and asked loudly:
"Old Five! Big? ”
Li Yi nodded, anyway, the pull force is not small, and the ones caught just now can't be compared at all! However, the strength of the fish in the sea is much greater than that of the fish in the reservoir, so he can't tell how big the fish is.
"Don't be too fierce in the pay-off and take-up, keep the line always tight, so that it is not easy to get off, and ......"
Wu Haitao handed over the boat to William, and also came to Li Yi's side to guide, William glanced at the fish finder, shrugged innocently, the fish finder didn't respond, how big can it be? Do you need to be so serious?
After fighting for about ten minutes, Li Yi finally dragged the fish out of the water, and when he saw it, it was a palm-wide hairtail fish! He vigorously lifted the hairtail onto the boat, and found that there was still one attached to the tail of the half-meter-long hairtail!
After this one was brought to the surface, oh my God, there was one in the back!
In the end, the four connected hairtail fish were thrown onto the deck, Li Yi squatted down to take a look, and the hairtail fish in the back were biting the tail of the hairtail in front of them, and they still haven't let go!
"This is a high-finned ribbon fish, which is very ferocious and greedy, and it is common to see this scene when fishermen used to hook and fish for hairtail fish in the past."
I'll go! You have to be greedy for this, just bite your companion's tail, and you won't let go when you are raised with water!
Li Yi saw that a few hairtail fish had not yet separated, so he was about to go over and take a photo, but as soon as his hand touched the hairtail, he was stunned all of a sudden, because a faint but cold cold current actually flowed into his palm from the hairtail's body!
Li Yi had been standing for a long time, and as soon as he squatted down at this time, he felt that his legs were sore, and he would never have thought that the ribbon fish would also have cold air, or the cold kind, so as soon as he felt the cool air entering his body, he sat on the deck.
"Highfin ribbonfish, 4 years old."
"South Sea White Pearl, 27*21, 25.1, 25*24.7, 18.2*17, 17.1, 15.9, 15."
When he saw that the spirit card actually showed Nanyang white beads, his wide open mouth that was surprised by the cold air was so frightened that he closed it suddenly, and he almost didn't bite off his own tongue!
Nima ...... Is the world swollen? When will the hairtail fish be able to produce pearls?
Then he saw the series of numbers that followed the white pearl of the South Seas. For a college student studying jewelry appraisal, this is all too familiar, two numbers with a multiplication sign indicate that it is not a bead, and only one number indicates a bead or a very similar bead, but it is just ......
Li Yi waved his hand at Wu Haitao, who came to help him, moved back with difficulty, and leaned on the boat gang.
Zheng Shusen also came over to ask, and when he heard him say that his legs were a little sore, he couldn't stand up, so he smiled and threw a bottle of water to him, and then hugged the ribbon fish and grinned and asked Wu Haitao to take a picture of him.
Li Yi leaned on the boat, closed his eyes and rested for a few seconds, then carefully looked at the numbers he had just seen, and after confirming that he was not mistaken, he picked up the water bottle and poured it into his stomach in one gulp.
He tried his best to control the muscles on his face and not let it twitch unnaturally. Yes, he was shocked, but not by the fact that a fish can produce pearls, but by the size of the pearls.
As an excellent graduate of the Jewelry Appraisal Bachelor's Degree, there are some things he can tell without even thinking about it.
The world's largest pearl, currently housed in the San Francisco Bank safe, weighs 6,350 grams, has a diameter of 280 millimeters, is the size of a human head, and was estimated at $4.08 million a few years ago.
At present, the world's largest and largest natural seawater round pearl in China, with a diameter of 24.5 mm and a weight of 102.15 carats, is worth ...... According to rumors, there are rich people who have made the highest offer of 17 million US dollars, but they have not sold it......
Why is there such a big difference in the diameter of two pearls, but the smaller one is more expensive? The key lies in the word "circle".
The value of a pearl is mainly determined by the following aspects: origin, weight, size, roundness, luster and quality.
The giant pearl is called a pearl mainly because it was indeed dug out of the body of a giant mussel under the sea, and the composition is exactly the same as the pearl. But if you don't know it's a pearl, you'll kick it away in disgust if you throw it in front of you, because it's so ugly! If you just pick up a rock, you might feel more pleasing to the eye than it is.
Therefore, it is very normal for small round pearls to counterattack large pearls, which are round, luster and beautiful, and the particles are large enough, and it is normal to sell them at sky-high prices.
What is not normal is the seven pearls in the belly of the hairtail.
Of the seven pearls, the largest round pearl is 0.6 mm larger than the world's largest round pearl, and the second largest very similar round pearl is 0.2 mm larger than the world's largest round pearl.
Not to mention the other five, there are three round pearls of 17.1 mm, 15.9 mm and 15 mm, one is 27*21 and 18.2*17 is round.
This batch of pearls is added up, and Li Yi estimates that the value is likely to exceed 40 million! Or dollars!
Of course, calculating the price is just a habit of Li Yi, and today he is not very likely to feel unbearable because of money, although this is likely to represent 40 million US dollars, but it will not surprise him to the point that his legs are weak.
What surprised him was that the pearls were actually produced with fish, and there were two that broke the current world record of seawater round pearls at the same time!
After taking a few big breaths, Li Yi calmed down his almost boiling heart, and also had a rough guess about the strange thing of taking fish to produce pearls.
According to his guess, the most likely possibility should be that the greedy hairtail fish swallowed alive a sea mussel that raised these pearls.
However, what can raise these big pearls is definitely a giant clam that doesn't know how long it has lived.
Therefore, Li Yi speculated that the giant clam should have broken the mussel shell for unknown reasons, and then he didn't know why it was picked up by the hairtail fish and swallowed the pearl sac into its stomach......
Thinking of this, Li Yi suddenly became scared, he jumped up, and shouted loudly at Wu Haitao, who was still holding the fish to take pictures,
"Return, return, exhausted!"
Wu Haitao put down the ribbon fish and replied with a smile,
"It's still early, and I haven't caught a big fish yet......"
Li Yi shook his head, there is no time to delay, who knows when the ribbon fish swallowed the pearl sac? If the pearl sac has been completely digested at this time, the stomach acid of the fish is definitely a killer for these precious pearls!
Seeing Li Yi's insistence, Wu Haitao yelled a few words at William, and then pulled Li Yi to the side of the hairtail,
"Mr. Li, it's really rare to be able to catch such a large number of hairtail fish at the same time, although they are separated now, but I still think you should leave a few group photos......
Li Yi thought about it, these hairtail fish are the original origin of the pearl, and they must be left as a commemoration.
So he bent down and touched all the hairtails to make sure that the pearls were indeed in the stomach of one of them, and then he picked it up with confidence and made a triumphant gesture.
took more than a dozen photos in various poses, and Li Yi felt that the feeling of taking pictures with 40 million US dollars seemed to be different! pondered for a while, and took out his mobile phone again,
"Third child, bring me two more!"
"Damn, burn the bun, net stimulate Lao Tzu's ......"
Li Yiguaner, this is called stimulation? I really can't say it, but if I did, I guess you kid should know what real excitement is......
