Li Xiaofeng took out his mobile phone and began to check it.

He first checked the Tang Guan snail and Wanbao snail among the four famous snails, but unfortunately they were neither.

Among the four famous snails, the anchovy and the nautilus, he has seen in the photo.

If it's not one of the four famous snails, it seems that it may be some kind of unfamous conch.

Li Xiaofeng continued to search patiently.

The phoenix snail doesn't look like it!

Baoluo, this is even more different, the world is much more beautiful than it!

It's not like it!

……

Dragon Palace Weng Rongluo, hey, this one looks very similar, not like, it's just the same!

When he finished reading the introduction of Longgong Weng Rongluo, he was stunned, this simply shattered his three views!

It turns out that the ugly Dragon Palace Weng Rong snail is also known as the "King of Shellfish", or "Millionaire Snail"!

The dragon palace Weng Rong snail appeared in the Cambrian period of the Paleozoic Era, about 570 million to 490 million years ago, and it was thought that the snail was extinct until the 90s of the last century.

Because the dragon palace snail has evolved for hundreds of millions of years and still retains the same form as its ancestors, biologists call the dragon palace snail a "living fossil" among marine shellfish.

It is said that there are only about 300 conch whelks found in the world, and most of them are kept in shellfish museums in some countries, so it has always been a target for shellfish collectors.

In 2017, Taiwanese fishermen found a dragon palace Weng Rong snail, and a wealthy businessman in Taipei offered NT$1 million, but the fishermen did not agree!

In China's Qingdao Shell Museum, there is a collection of Longgong Weng Rong snail, known as the museum's "treasure of the town", estimated at 6 million yuan!

With a diameter of 22 centimeters, this Longgong Weng Rong snail is also known as the largest Longgong Weng Rong snail in China.

Li Xiaofeng looked at the Dragon Palace Weng Rong snail in his hand and felt that it was much more than it!

I just don't know if I can break the world record of 35 centimeters!

Now the more he looks at it, the more he thinks it's pleasing to the eye, and the more he looks at it, the more he thinks it's beautiful!

How can you say it's ugly? Who's calling it ugly?

Isn't it beautiful? That strange thing is that it looks like Ryugu!

Who said it looks like a cow poop shape, is it obviously a pyramid shape!

Liu Xuexia, who had made a meal, came over and called him to eat, and when she entered the house, she found that her son was obsessively touching the big ugly snail in his hand, and she couldn't help but shudder!

Son, is this a demon? Such an ugly thing he touched around there!

It seems that I still have to find a girlfriend for my son as soon as possible!

Li Xiaofeng, who was happy at this time, didn't know that Liu Xuexia was preparing to find someone to introduce him to a girlfriend again.

Seeing that my mother looked at the baby in her hand with disgust, she hurriedly said: "Mom, don't look at it like this, it's a big baby now!" ”

"What big baby? Isn't it just an ugly conch? Liu Xuexia said disgustedly.

"Mom! This one is called the Ryugu Weng Rong snail, and it is said to be one of the most expensive conch in the world! Li Xiaofeng explained.

"The most expensive conch, how much is it worth?" Liu Xuexia asked curiously.

"Qingdao Shellfish Museum has one, which is said to be worth 6 million!" Li Xiaofeng replied.

"6 million!" Liu Xuexia was taken aback, "It's really fake, this ugly thing is worth 6 million?" ”

Seeing that Liu Xuexia didn't believe it, Li Xiaofeng hurriedly showed her the news on the Internet.

After reading it, Liu Xuexia also looked like she was shattered, but now she looks at this conch called Longgong Weng Rongluo, but she doesn't think it's ugly!

Where is this ugly, it is clearly a personality and a unique appearance!

Li Yonglin entered the house and saw that the two of them were looking at the conch they picked up that morning with an obsessive face, which was also very strange. After Li Xiaofeng's explanation, he realized that the conch with a unique shape that he got back in the morning turned out to be a valuable treasure!

The three of them didn't care about eating, so they rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find a ruler to measure the diameter of the Longgong Weng Rong snail!

After repeated measurements, the diameter of this dragon palace Weng Rong snail is a little more than 37 centimeters, although their measurement may be wrong, but no matter how you look at it, this is also a proper break of the current world record!

After this measurement, it is no longer two people who are obsessively looking at Longgong Weng Rongluo, but now it has become three people!

How much is this baby worth?

1 million, 2 million, 3 million......

In the end, Liu Xuexia broke the tranquility and said, "Okay, don't look any further!" Now that this baby is worth a lot of money, we have to eat first, and then find a way to contact someone to sell it after eating! ”

After saying that, I went to the room and took out a piece of silk cloth and carefully wrapped it!

The three of them didn't have a good meal.

After eating, Li Yonglin took out his mobile phone to call some collectors he knew from selling ambergris last time, and Li Xiaofeng found the phone numbers of some shellfish museums from the Internet to see if they were willing to collect.

In this way, the two of them worked all afternoon, contacted more than a dozen interested buyers, and agreed to take Longgong Weng Rongluo to a five-star hotel in the city to meet everyone on the spot at 10:00 in the morning three days later! (Li Xiaofeng booked a meeting room in the hotel online for a day)

In the past two days, Liu Xuexia did not arrange for Li Xiaofeng to go to the sea, so she asked him to guard Weng Rongluo in the Dragon Palace at home, and Li Xiaofeng did not refuse.

In this way, Li Xiaofeng watched some videos of treasures in the ocean at home for two days in a row, and he saw many precious treasures in the ocean.

I just hope that the next time I see them, I can have a little impression and I won't know them completely! It won't be like many people this time, even if you pick it up, because you don't know it, you will throw it away later!

Li Xiaofeng felt that his niece Xiao Nuomi was really his lucky star, and if he hadn't wanted to bring the conch to her at that time, he probably wouldn't have picked up this big baby!

Even if you pick it up, you may throw it away again, just like several people did before!

Soon the time came three days later, and early in the morning, Liu Xuexia carefully packed the dragon palace Weng Rongluo.

In addition to wrapping it with a layer of silk, wrapping it in a summer quilt outside, and finally putting it into the gift box brought back by Li Xiaofeng is the end!

When Li Yonglin and Li Xiaofeng took a taxi with Longgong Weng Rongluo and came to the hotel at 9:00, the buyers were basically waiting in the conference room of the hotel.

After seeing the two people arrive, the buyer asked to measure the size of the dragon palace Weng Rong snail on the spot.

Finally, after the measurement of professionals, the diameter of this dragon palace Weng Rong snail reached 37.2 cm!

Broke the world record of Ryugu Weng Rongluo, which had been held by foreign countries before!

With the title of world No. 1, the atmosphere at the scene is even more enthusiastic!

As soon as 10:00 arrived, this one was in good condition, the world's largest dragon palace Weng Rong snail, and the on-site bidding started on time!

"3 million!"

"3.8 million!"

"4 million!"

……

In the end, after more than 30 years of bidding, he was bent on leaving this Longgong Weng Rong snail found in Jiangzhou and leaving it in the Shellfish Museum of Jiangzhou City in Jiangzhou City with 8.8 million yuan!

From then on, this dragon palace Weng Rong snail will become the treasure of the Jiangzhou Shellfish Museum!

After the bidding ended, the scene also resounded with warm applause!

This also created a new transaction record in the country of Weng Rongluo, China's Dragon Palace!

However, there is still a big gap to break the national conch auction record!

In 2005, there was a rare Qing Dynasty left-handed snail auctioned for a sky-high price of 11.22 million!
