Chapter 991: Windfall from the Sky

Looking at the red coral full of holes, Jin Muchen's brain was basically a mess at this time, so many red corals, he was dazzled, and his heart jumped to his throat. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

How do you describe that? It's like a person who has always loved to hunt for treasures, and suddenly falls into a cave deep in the mountains, and there is neither an imaginary treasure nor a treasure ship in this cave.

But there is something that people dream of the most, gold!! And it is also the most popular dog head gold on the market, there is no mining cost at all, just take out one, you can exchange it for millions of yuan...

This feeling is simply not too cool, and for Jin Muchen, these red corals in front of him are much more precious than the gold.

Although he is not bad for money, but when he sees these corals that are comparable to gold, he is also unspeakably excited.

This thing is now on the market, but it's a hard currency that is stronger than gold!

And in terms of the current market price, these red corals are not only much more expensive than gold, even the most expensive stone in the world, diamonds are dwarfed by the wind in front of this red coral.

How much is a carat of diamonds on the market now?

The current market price of diamonds, the top diamonds, is about $4,300 a carat, and a gram is about four carats, which means that a diamond is about $17,000.

At present, the price of one gram of top-quality red coral is only more than 20,000 yuan per gram, which seems to be much lower than diamond in price.

But that's not the case in terms of the price of a single gram, and if you look at it as a whole, it's not like that at all.

Diamonds, because of their high value, so those black-hearted diamond dealers like to divide them into small pieces to sell, so the common ones on the market are used as decorations on rings, and rich people like to make a set of fine jewelry, but even so, the price is only a few million, to tens of millions of dollars.

But red coral is different, the kind it sells in grams, and it is generally just broken scraps when collecting red coral.

And the really precious ones are the top-notch, naturally grown big guys who use trees as units.

This kind of red coral, because of its long growth age, and the very small number of surviving people, coupled with its huge size, is quite amazing.

After all, the red coral trees that grow naturally generally do not need to be carved, and they are natural top handicrafts.

For example, when Kangxi celebrated his birthday, an official from Fujian Province gave him a three-foot-high natural red coral tree, and the red coral tree was not carved much, but people made some inlaid decorations on the coral tree, such as inlaid with various red, blue and green gems of various colors, which became a rare treasure.

Later, when the emperors of the Qing Dynasty celebrated their birthdays, officials sent them handicrafts made of red coral trees.

And those coral trees, almost all of them were collected in the Old Summer Palace, but unfortunately when the Second Opium War was later, the Old Summer Palace was looted by Britain and France.

In fact, those coral trees have been recorded in the history of England and France.

At that time, the British and French troops once found a warehouse dedicated to storing coral trees in the courtyard known as the Garden of Ten Thousand Gardens, and in it they found various gifts made of precious coral received by the rulers of the Qing Dynasty for hundreds of years.

But at that time, the robbers who had already snatched the red eyes had no concept of cherishing in their minds at all, and they not only broke all kinds of corals, but also pried off all the gems set on the corals, and finally simply set fire to the yard.

In the end, the descendants of our Chinese family will not be able to appreciate the crystallization of wisdom and art left by our ancestors.

This also illustrates the history of this kind of thing in our domestic collection, as well as the degree of cherishment.

And now, a complete coral tree, especially a red coral tree, even if it has not undergone any processing and carving, is much more precious than the bulk red coral that Lun Kelai sells.

A complete coral tree, even if it is a foot high, can be sold for a sky-high price casually, at least it will be purchased for tens of millions of units.

And more importantly, such coral trees are basically priceless in the market, which means that you have no stock on the market.

As long as you have the goods in your hand, as long as it is naturally formed, even if it is the kind that is ten centimeters high, I am afraid that before you can take it to auction, there will be countless rich people, waving checks, looking for you to snap up the purchase.

This shows how precious this red coral tree is, and it is definitely the most precious collection in the Chinese market, even more precious than gold and diamonds.

And all over the world, there is an endless stream of people who like coral trees.

For example, the rich people in Japan and South Korea are also eager for the top red coral, because their own culture has an extraordinary obsession with this kind of auspicious and festive treasure, so those rich people in Japan and South Korea are very fond of this kind of red coral.

Europe, the United States, and the local tyrants in the Middle East prefer sardine corals from the Mediterranean, which are actually pink corals, which are mainly produced in Italy's sardine island, so they are also called sardine corals.

But it's just pink coral, which is slightly lighter than red coral, and it's slightly cheaper than red coral from Japan.

But if it's a larger, better-looking sardine coral, the price is also very staggering.

Now Jin Muchen looks at these red coral trees in this cave, and feels that his brain is a little difficult to use, this is simply a windfall from heaven!

The geographical environment of this cave is very special, it is a small island, a karst cave type cave under the continental shelf that extends to the sea, because it is located below the water level, so there can be seawater in the cave.

But because this cave also has a ventilation hole on the ground that connects to the passage, this cave will cause the sea water to rise and fall due to the rotation of the earth, so that the air and sea water in this cave form a wonderful pressure balance.

Moreover, the geographical location of this cave is very secret, which has created a unique ecological environment here, and no one has come here to destroy the natural ecological environment here for thousands of years, so it has formed a natural and delicate ecological balance.

The daily exchange of sea water and air has formed a very rich plankton resource here, and these plankton have attracted a large number of polyps.

And these polyps, relying on the abundant plankton resources here, are thriving for hundreds of thousands of years, and finally in this unique pressure environment of sea water and air exchange, forming so many rich natural red coral trees, just thinking about this process, people can't help but sigh at the magic of nature.

If it weren't for the unexpected encounter with that shark today, Jin Muchen would really not have found such a natural cave under the sea level, and then found so many red coral trees.

These red coral trees can be more than a meter tall at the highest, and this kind of physique is definitely the largest in the collection of red coral trees known to modern people.

If you can collect it, it will definitely be one of the treasures.

Smaller than this coral tree, it can also be seventy or eighty centimeters high, or about one meter high, and the specifications of red coral trees, even if there are historical records of those Qing Dynasty emperors' collections, is this kind of specification.

At that time, the emperor, even if there was such a red coral tree, it was already worth them to brag about for a long time.

And now red coral trees of this size are simply everywhere here, Jin Muchen probably counted them, and there can be about seventy or eighty trees...

As for the red coral trees that are half a meter high, or thirty or forty centimeters high, they are even more numerous.

And the most important thing is that Jin Muchen actually saw a few blue corals at the junction of the horizontal plane in this cave and the horizontal plane, that's right, the blue coral that had been declared extinct in the world before.

Wow, this is special, God really likes to throw pies on his head, when he saw these blue corals, Jin Muchen felt that his brain was a little deprived of oxygen.

When he first entered this cave, he felt that his brain was a little deprived of oxygen, and his eyes were dizzy from the abundant resources of red coral trees here, and he didn't have time to look closely.

At this time, he calmed down, and when he saw that there were not only red corals, but also several blue coral trees, he felt that his brain was about to crash.

Blue coral, a coral tree, is one of the most precious coral trees in the world, and was first discovered by humans and recognized as one of the most valuable coral species.

Of course, the blue coral that Jin Muchen saw was not the kind of blue coral that is now sold all over the world, but the kind of blue coral that first existed on the east coast of Africa and was finally excavated.

The kind of coral that is now circulating in large quantities on the market, which is called blue coral, can actually be regarded as blue coral in terms of species, but in the eyes of collectors, that kind of coral can only be called blue coral, and cannot be regarded as real blue coral.

Because that kind of coral, it is pure black under the water surface, and after the water is drained, it will gradually oxidize and turn blue.

And the blue coral that Jin Muchen saw now is the kind of purebred blue coral that shows blue under the water surface. (To be continued.) )
