Chapter Sixty-Six: The Arowana on the Back

After breakfast, Yue Chengyu called and said that the decoration had been determined, and it was the person Xiao Tao helped introduce, saying that the person was happier than others, and took the initiative to say some special things to pay attention to, and the price was affordable.

Fang Tianfeng knew that Xiao Tao still contributed, and kept this matter in his heart.

Today's weather is a little cloudy, after receiving a call from He Changxiong, Fang Tianfeng went to treat He Lao, now He Lao's attitude is much better, he will smile when he sees him, Fang Tianfeng doesn't feel anything, but He Changxiong is very happy.

After the treatment, Fang Tianfeng went downstairs, met Xia Xiaoyu on the way, and the two chatted a few words while walking. Fang Tianfeng found that when he was with An Tiantian, it was An Tiantian who was talking; When he was talking to Xia Xiaoyu, he was almost all talking.

Xia Xiaoyu is still like that, she has a slight communication barrier, and she blushes at every turn.

Before parting, Fang Tianfeng stopped and texted her in front of Xia Xiaoyu.

"Goodbye, I think you won't be shy that way."

Xia Xiaoyu took out her mobile phone in confusion, and after finishing it, she was ashamed, blushing and leaving quickly, the pink nurse's uniform became a beautiful scenery in Fang Tianfeng's eyes, and at the same time, countless eyes competed with Fang Tianfeng for this scenery.

Fang Tianfeng did not return to Chang'an Garden, but asked Master Cui to go to the aquarium trading market, and then contact Shen Xin.

Shen Xin said that her friend Ah Li was waiting for him, and then gave Fang Tianfeng his contact information.

When he arrived at the place, the car stopped, and Fang Tianfeng said goodbye to Master Cui.

The full name here is Yunhai Flowers, Birds, Fish and Insects Market, which is divided into four parts: aquarium, bird market, flowers, plants and pets, and also sells various related equipment, which is the largest flower, bird, fish and insect market in Yunhai City.

Fang Tianfeng entered the aquarium, and around the main entrance were all kinds of smaller beds, some selling small tropical fish, some selling fish and bait, and some selling sand and gravel fish tanks and so on.

Further inside, there are a variety of larger shops, selling relatively expensive ornamental fish.

Fang Tianfeng called Ali, and then walked to Ali's shop, Mulongju.

Ali is a young man in his thirties, with a T-shirt and shorts, short hair, copper-colored skin, and is very enthusiastic.

Fang Tianfeng visited Ali's shop, which has multiple fish tanks and aquariums, and all kinds of beautiful arowana swim around, which is pleasing to the eye. Some are small fry, and there are mature arowana more than half a meter long, giving people an elegant and luxurious feeling.

Ali smiled and said, "You are Shen Xin's younger brother, that is, my Ali's younger brother, the store is my wife, and I will accompany you alone today." ”

Fang Tianfeng smiled and said, "Thank you." I raided the information about Arowana yesterday, and at present, the red Arowana and the over-the-back Arowana are worth investing in, right? ”

Ali was embarrassed and said: "I used to deal in these two kinds of fish, but unfortunately I lost a lot, and now I basically only deal in ordinary silver Arowana, star Arowana and blue Arowana. In fact, I just raise it for my own play, these kinds of fish are enough, and they are also very good, I personally prefer silver Arowana. If you invest, it is easy to get more returns if you choose the back Arowana and the red Arowana, but the risk is also large. ”

Fang Tianfeng said: "You don't understand it, and you are more experienced than me, a layman." I'm here today to find out, and I don't necessarily have to buy it back. ”

"Then I'll take you first, let's go."

Afterwards, Ali led Fang Tianfeng to a nearby shop, pΓΉ, which sold Arowana.

Ali pointed to an Arowana with a reddish tail, the edges of the scales were pale golden, and the inside of the scales was blue-gray.

Ali said, "Let's divide the Arowana into five grades here. This is the lowest-grade fifth-class red-tailed dragon in the Arowana, named because of its reddish tail. You, from the side, the fish has a total of six horizontal rows of scales from the belly to the back. And the gold of this fish only reached the fourth row, and the gold did not climb to the fifth or even the sixth row, so the grade was low. ”

Yesterday, Fang Tianfeng only gave a general introduction and classification, and many places were not detailed, so he asked: "Ah Li, the first four rows of this fish are only golden on the edges, and it can also be called Arowana?" ”

Ali smiled and said, "You don't understand this, aren't the scales of the fish you eat at home also a gradient in color?" The so-called 'gold' of Arowana means that the edges of the scales are golden, and insiders call it 'scale frame'. Inside the scale frame, it is the 'base color'. ”

As he spoke, Ali pointed to another Arowana.

Unlike the previous one, the tail of this Arowana is very light red, and the scales are golden yellow.

"You're a fourth-class high-backed Arowana, and the reason why it's called a high-back is because its gold color climbs all the way to the fifth row, which is one row more than the fifth-class red tail. Is there a slightly rounded scale under the dorsal fin of this fish? This is called pearl scales, and whether the pearl scales are golden or not is also one of the factors to measure the value of Arowana. The pearl scales of the fifth-class red-tailed pearl are not golden, but this one has a few pieces of gold, which is also one of the symbols of the high-backed golden dragon. ”

At this moment, after greeting another customer, the shopkeeper came over enthusiastically and said: "Since it was introduced by Ali, they are all friends, buy one for a 9% discount, buy more for more discounts." What's the most important thing to buy Arowana right now? Feel relieved! There are always some unscrupulous sellers who are shoddy and deceive consumers, and my Arowana are really good goods. You guys, you say a price and take it! ”

Fang Tianfeng and Ah Li went to the dragon fish pointed out by the shopkeeper together.

This fish has more gold on its body than the previous fourth-class high back, not only covered with the fifth row, but the sixth row even has a few pieces of gold.

The shopkeeper laughed in a low voice and said, "This B-grade back has just been shipped from the Bukit Merah Fishery in Malaysia, and the genuine goods still have to be taxed, and the price is too high." Our dragons are all smuggled. However, how beautiful this dragon is, if you invite it home, you can make the feng shui at home better. ”

Arowana lovers generally call Arowana "dragon" and buy "please".

Ali said: "Whether it is the third-class high-back just now, or this second-class B-pass, they are all the products of the cross-breeding of the second-class over-back golden dragon and the fifth-class red-tailed dragon!" He's my friend, don't be a fat sheep to slaughter. ”

The shopkeeper suddenly blushed and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know the relationship between the two of you." But this grade B is absolutely right, and it is produced in the Bukit Merah Fishing Grounds. Eight-fold, eight-fold is it okay? ”

Fang Tianfeng smiled and didn't speak.

Ali said to him: "The third-class B is over the golden dragon, and it is not worth investing,"

Ali looked around the shop, and finally his eyes fell on a dragon fish, and he couldn't help but admire: "What a golden dragon over the back!" I didn't expect to be able to get such a good back here. ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said triumphantly, "This is a new arrival, isn't it?" I'm a little reluctant to sell. ”

Fang Tianfeng, this Arowana is really more beautiful than just now, its whole body is glowing with golden color, and there seems to be a shallow halo around it, as if there is a kind of magic that can attract people's attention.

"You're an authentic over-the-back golden dragon. Counting from the bottom to the top, the sixth row of scales just crosses the back, and the scales of the sixth row of scales are all golden, which is the so-called back. This fish, whether it is bead scales or something else, is flawless, and is worth at least ten thousand. ”

The shopkeeper was upset and said, "At least 12,000!" ”

Fang Tianfeng asked: "The worst fifth class is the red-tailed Arowana, the fourth class is the high-backed Arowana, the third class is the B pass, and the second class is the over-backed Arowana, what is the first class?" ”

Ali smiled and said, "I'll bring you a more beautiful dragon." ”

But the shopkeeper suddenly said, "Wait and don't go." If you are sincere in carrying the golden dragon, I have a batch of good fry here, which are absolutely cheap. Ali, you can verify it yourself, there is a chip and a certificate, this can't be fake. ”

As he spoke, the shopkeeper pointed to a large fish tank.

There are two Arowana fish of about 20 centimeters in the bathtub, and the gold on their bodies has crawled to the fifth row, and the scales in the sixth row also have a lot of gold. These two over-the-back golden dragons swam slowly, shining against the backdrop of the white bathtub.

Ali took a closer look and said: "It's so small, it's full of pearls and scales, five full and six showing, and the quality is very good, with Malaysian standards, at least AA grade, how much is it?" ”

"Four thousand and fifty-one, and it can be cheap to buy both."

Ali said to Fang Tianfeng: "The golden dragon is not full of six rows of gold at the beginning, but as it grows, the gold gradually climbs up. These two are so good that they are twenty centimeters long now, and they will be more beautiful in the future, and they can make a small profit if they are raised well, and the price he gives is also very low. However, I still start raising ordinary dragons and practice your hands. ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "I have sold two of them today, and I want to buy them in the future, but they are out of stock." ”

Fang Tianfeng took a closer look, and always felt that there was a problem, so he subconsciously used the Qi Hope Technique, and found that the two Arowana were sick, and it felt even more wrong, so he smiled and said, "I'll wait a little longer." ”

As he said that, Ali also left, and the shopkeeper just sighed.

After walking away, Fang Tianfeng asked, "Can this fish be faked?" ”

Ali said with a smile: "This kind of over-the-back golden dragon is difficult to fake, because they are all from Malaysia or Singapore, and there may be smuggling, but they are all genuine." ”

Fang Tianfeng said: "I feel that those two Arowana are a little sick. ”

Ali was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said angrily: "I said how can he sell it so cheaply!" Fortunately, you have good eyesight, otherwise I would have almost been deceived by him! I didn't expect him to even have acquaintances! ”

Fang Tianfeng asked curiously, "What's the matter?" ”

"The older the golden dragon is, the more golden scales it has. But everyone is not old, just according to the body length to calculate, the same body length of the back of the golden dragon juveniles, the more golden scales, the better the quality, the higher the price. The twenty-centimeter-long golden dragon is theoretically eight months old, and the two fish just now looked like that, and they were in good condition. But as soon as you reminded me, I realized that it was not eight months old, but he used the method of starvation and slow feeding, starving the dragon that was at least ten months old to twenty centimeters long! ”

"I see. Thank you, if you don't explain, if I go back and buy it, it will be a big loss. Fang Tianfeng said.

Ali gave Fang Tianfeng a thumbs up and said, "Don't thank me, it's because of your good eyesight." I didn't make high-end Arowana because of my poor eyesight. Fortunately, you didn't buy it, if you did, I would only have to find a crack in the ground to get into Shen Xin. ”

Subsequently, Ali said ashamedly: "What I just said is too full, and I am suspected of being a trust, in fact, you can inquire in the market, I Ali has never done this." I have helped two or three friends to hire dragons this year, and each time it takes a lot of time, rather than earning a few hundred, it is better to sell fish to make more money. ”

Fang Tianfeng said with a smile: "Everyone has a time when they have their eyes, I believe in Sister Xin's vision." Besides, if you really want to partner with him to deceive me, there is no need to persuade me to buy ordinary arowana to practice first, and there is no need to tell me about the problem of the two fish, you should go back and continue to deceive me. ”

Ali smiled gratefully.
