It is said that there are only about 200 Merlot beads in the world, and most of them come from the royal treasures of the Nguyen Dynasty, the last dynasty of Vietnam

As for why the Meral Beads are called "Dragon Balls", it is because the Vietnamese royal family is deeply influenced by the traditional Chinese dragon culture, and regards the Merlot Beads as "Dragon Balls", which are only collected by the emperor, and are endowed with a layer of sacred symbolism.

Later, after the fall of the Nguyen Dynasty, these jewels were sold one by one by the last emperor of Vietnam in exile in France, and they were eventually lost in Europe.

So now most of the world's Merlot beads are collected by the European jewelry industry!

As a rare royal jewel, Merlot beads have been the target of collectors in the East and the West for many years, which has led to their high value.

As early as June 2003, at a jewelry auction held in Hong Kong, a 100.4-carat Merlot bead was auctioned for a sky-high price of 2.7 million US dollars!

You must know that one carat is 0.2 grams, and 100 carats is only 20 grams.

Now Li Xiaofeng, the little brother of Napoleon wrasse, has found this Merlot Pearl, which is bigger than a pigeon's egg, and the weight will definitely not be less than 100 carats!

What's even more rare is that this Merlot bead is not only large, but also perfect in appearance!

The shape is close to a perfect circle, and the interior is covered with wisps of flame-like flame structure, and the appearance has a crystalline ceramic-like luster. Holding it in your hand, the warm sunlight shines on its surface through the water, as if you are holding a round of red sun in your hand.

Li Xiaofeng likes it more and more, and ordinary people don't want to get this "Dragon Ball" from him, unless they add money!

After admiring it for a while, Li Xiaofeng reluctantly took it carefully into a small bag he carried. Looking at the little compressed air left in the oxygen cylinder on his body, he also planned to go back.

So he swam towards the little brother who was still working tirelessly, ready to say his final goodbye to it.

He didn't plan to take it back, this is not that he is crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, to be honest, although this little brother weighs more than 100 pounds, but it is still very easy for him to raise, after all, he is such a big fishing boat, just catch a little fish is enough to raise this Napoleon wrasse chubby!

According to the contribution it has made today, Li Xiaofeng will have no problem even if he raises it for the rest of his life!

But when you bring it back, where do you keep it?

No matter how big a fish tank is, it is still a fish tank, how can it compare to this boundless sea?

You confine a fish that has become accustomed to swimming freely in the sea to a small fish tank, which not only makes it lose its freedom, but also destroys its fish!

What's more, this Napoleon wrasse is in the prime of life, and he will also be looking for a girlfriend in the future.

So after playing with the little brother of Napoleon wrasse for a while, Li Xiaofeng swam back in the direction of the way he came, but he didn't expect this Napoleon wrasse to still be reluctant to give up on him and follow him closely.

Everything has spirituality!

You must know that the humane Napoleon wrasse found by Li Xiaofeng is not an exception, in Japan, there is a diver Arakawa Hiroyuki, who is the only diver in Japan and is responsible for maintaining this underwater shrine.

Thirty years ago, Hiroyuki Arakawa rescued a badly injured humphead fish, which was so badly injured that it was no longer able to hunt on its own. Arakawa then fed the crab every day for ten days until the humphead improved.

After that, the humphead fish seemed to know that it was Arakawa who saved his life, and in order to repay him for saving his life, he worked with him at the bottom of the sea every day and did not travel far.

Gradually, this person and fish became friends. Even Arakawa gave it a name: Yoriko.

Whenever Arakawa hits the metal with a hammer, it won't be long before the humphead fish appears in front of him.

What's even more rare is that this diver's job Hiroyuki Arakawa has been working for 30 years, and this humphead fish has been with him for 30 years!

Even now, Hiroyuto Arakawa is in his 80s, but he still insists on going to the sea every day to see his old friends.

Both Android and Apple are available. 】

This 30-year friendship has also touched countless people. (This is a real incident and can be searched on the Internet)

So don't think that only humans have feelings, sometimes animals know how to be grateful even more than humans!

Seeing that his little brother of Napoleon wrasse was still following him, Li Xiaofeng didn't mind, so this person and fish swam back together in the coral bush in the direction of the way they came.

But when they swam together not far from the fishing boat, and looked at the noisy fishing boat not far away, the big Napoleon wrasse seemed to hesitate a little.

Looking at the fishing boat in the distance, Li Xiaofeng also seemed to understand something, and hurriedly swam over to comfort him, and finally the wrasse wrasse continued to follow him towards the fishing boat.

When he came to the fishing boat not far away, Li Xiaoliang saw Li Xiaofeng who had surfaced and hurriedly greeted him, and then he saw the big Napoleon wrasse fish that surfaced after Li Xiaofeng.

Then I saw him pointing behind Li Xiaofeng with his hand trembling and said, "Feng...... Brother Feng......, there is a big shark behind you! Run! ”

These words also caused an uproar among the surrounding crews, and they avoided them one after another. You must know that there is no shortage of sharks in the South China Sea, such as great white sharks, mako sharks, whale sharks, blue sharks, hammerhead sharks, etc., which are really too many to count!

Seeing Li Xiaoliang looking nervous to death, Li Xiaofeng was also speechless.

What kind of eyes are these! His little brother of Napoleon wrasse looks so cute, where does he look like a shark?

So he had to correct him loudly at this time: "Xiaoliang, what kind of eyes do you have in this kid?" This is the national second-class wild protected animal Napoleon wrasse, such a simple appearance, where does it look like a shark? ”

At this time, everyone else could also see the appearance of the fish closely behind him, and in an instant there was a burst of laughter on the deck and in the sea.

However, his funny personality is also one of the reasons why Li Xiaofeng chose to take him to the new fishing boat, because as long as this guy exists, there is no shortage of laughter there.

Li Xiaoliang is thick-skinned enough, and he doesn't mind everyone's laughter.

At this time, he smiled and said, "Brother Feng, wasn't I a little nervous for you just now." But Brother Feng, you are too powerful, you can turn back all the wild protected animals! ”

Hearing this, Li Xiaofeng couldn't help laughing. He turned his face and rubbed the big wrasse that was carefully hiding behind him, as if he wanted to hide himself, and gave it a little comfort, before continuing: "This is also the little brother I just received!" Xiaoliang, you immediately arrange for someone to fetch some fish and feed it. ”

"Okay, Brother Feng!" Li Xiaoliang hurriedly agreed, and then turned his face to a slightly chubby young man next to him and said, "Xiaobin, you hurry up and go to the cabin to get some small trash fish." ”

"Don't take any small trash fish!" Li Xiaofeng hurriedly interrupted him, how could he wronged this loyal little brother to eat small trash fish, "Go and get the grouper, and don't freeze it, just go and get a bucket of the freshest grouper in the tank!" ”
