Chapter 208: Black Pearl

In fact, there is no need for an underwater robot to go down to find out the situation, and Zhang Yaohua basically understands it.

The depth of the sea here is not particularly deep, only about 200 meters. In the high seas, such depths are rare, and the vast majority of them are more than 200 meters deep.

The robot was launched, and it didn't take long for it to come to the bottom of the sea.

As you can see, there are clams everywhere, as well as scattered king crabs.

Perhaps sensing the threat of king crabs, those clams are now closed.

Closed clams, not to mention king crabs, even if humans use tools to pry them open, it takes some time and energy, not so easy.

"There's a lot of clams, can you get a little bit?" Someone asked.

After all, they had heard that Brother Hua had picked up a clams shell before, took it back and sold it, and sold it for 100,000 yuan.

However, they didn't tell these words to outsiders, and even their own family members didn't dare to tell them casually. The women in the village, all of them are horns, and they have no habit of keeping secrets at all, and who does the ghost know to whom they will speak?

"If there's only a shell left, you can take it back." Zhang Yaohua said.

Of course he won't stop everyone from getting rich, anyway, Tang Lao also said that if you get this kind of thing back, just leave it to him to deal with.

"Can a robot come up? Hard, right? ”

Zhu Weiguang: "Sink a rope down, control the robot to tie it, we just pull it up, what's so difficult?" ”

When everyone heard it, it seemed to be a good idea.

So, they threw a rope into the boat, and a big nut was tied to the end, so it sank quite quickly.

Through the underwater robots, they soon find a dead clams, leaving only an empty shell. On the inside of the clams, red can be seen.

This is another Aka-level ox blood red, and half a shell is worth 100,000 yuan.

After searching for most of the day, a total of more than 50 empty shells were picked up, and the quality was good and bad, and the size was different. At this point, it doesn't matter how much it's worth.

Zhang Yaohua has already told everyone that everyone has a part in this clams.

In that case, who will report it?

To do this kind of thing, the most feared thing is to eat alone. Even if you don't talk about it now, if you don't work under Zhang Yaohua in the future, maybe you will use this matter to pinch him.

At present, almost all the guys on the ship are surnamed Zhang, and they can be trusted. But what about the captain and the others?

In short, Zhang Yaohua doesn't mind sharing it with everyone. Anyway, this can only be regarded as making extra money, not his main source of income.

Next time, if you salvage the treasures of the sunken ship, Zhang Yaohua will also give everyone a bonus, so that everyone can benefit.

It's just that the biggest beneficiary has to be him.

Everyone on board was excited, after all, there was another income.

"Alright, let's go!" Zhang Yaohua was tasteless.

On the boat, there are a lot of clams, and if you see too much, that's it.

"I don't know if there are any pearls, do you want to open them and take a look?" Zhu Weiguang only wanted to know if there were any pearls.

To be honest, he was not at all interested in how much the clams sold for and how much he could share.

Not so much money.

"Then you open it! I'm too lazy to get my hands dirty. ”

Seeing Zhang Yaohua say this, Zhu Weiguang took action.

He is very interested in this kind of thing like opening a blind box.

This also attracted onlookers from the rest of the crew.

It didn't take long for the first clams to be opened, and everyone was surprised.

I didn't expect to win the lottery with the first one.

There are two pearls lying inside.

That's right! It's two.

And both are the size of a toe thumb. Unfortunately, this pearl is the most common white pearl, and it is not rounded and irregularly shaped.

Except for the special Tahitian black pearls and South Sea gold pearls, the general pearls are milky white, which is a natural white.

"Is such a pearl worth anything?"

Zhu Weiguang was also stumped.

He also didn't know much about the pearl industry.

But it is certain that the estimated value of a pearl of this shape will not be very high.

"This should also belong to Nanzhu, and the value is good. In any case, pearls are also natural, and they are certainly many times better than cultured. Zhang Yaohua said.

Zhang Yaohua knew that the pearls on the market were not worth anything at all, and they had long been rotten on the street.

To put it bluntly, they are all cultured beads, and their value is just a little higher than that of plastic.

After all, the natural ones have a small yield, and the scarcity is expensive.

Pearls are divided into East Pearl, West Pearl and South Pearl.

The name of Hepu Pearl is called Nanzhu, and those who go out of Europe and the West are West Pearls, and those who go out of the East are East Pearls. Historically, Nanzhu is represented by Guangxi Hepu Pearl.

Internationally, it has always been believed that "the West Pearl is not as good as the East Pearl, and the East Pearl is not as good as the South Pearl".

Next, five in a row, empty.

"Why don't I try? Brother Zhu, you can't do it with your luck! The onlookers couldn't stand it anymore.

"Okay, you can try your luck too."

"I'll come first, I'll ......"

Before he finished speaking, the guy was interrupted by Ah Xing: "Let's let Brother Hua come!" His luck, I don't need to say more, right? ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone had no opinion.

"Brother Hua, let's try it."

Zhang Yaohua shook his head and pointed to one of the clams: "You guys do it!" Take a look at that. ”

Zhu Weiguang moved quickly, and immediately walked over and moved out.

When the clams were pried open, everyone was stunned.

"This is a pearl too?"

Zhu Weiguang was excited: "Black pearl, it turned out to be a black pearl, this is valuable!" ”

Although the individual is not very large, the size of a quail egg, it is the size of three pieces, and all of them are round. This kind of natural pearl, which is almost perfect, is very rare.

"This is the Black Pearl? Why does it look like bronze? "Some people questioned.

"That's the color of black pearls, you don't understand it at all." Zhu Weiguang knocked off the hand that wanted to get the pearl.

Black pearls, a bronze-colored pearl, are a very valuable jewelry variety.

The beauty of black pearls lies in the fact that they have a variety of colors on their natural black tone, the most appreciated are peacock green, purple, sea blue and other rainbow colors, and its strong metallic luster will change with the rotation of the pearl, which is not comparable to other color change pearls.

But Zhu Weiguang was also puzzled, he heard that the mother-of-pearl that produces black pearls is a black lipped oyster that secretes black nacre. Can clams also produce black pearls?

"How much does a Black Pearl cost?"

"Such a big natural black pearl, it must start at 100,000!" In fact, Zhu Weiguang himself doesn't know much about the market, only that the production of black pearls is very low.

It is said that the annual production of fine black pearls is estimated to be no more than 150,000, 40% of which are sold through annual international auctions. Most black pearls are concentrated between 9mm and 10mm in size, and about 60% of black pearls are no more than 11mm in size.

The three pieces in front of you are more than 20mm, right?

This kind of black pearl is estimated to be hard to find.
