Chapter 624: Ambergris

[Fourth update]

Wu Qiang stood behind Yang Bo, "How can it be fragrant?"

Feng Jia and Mu Shasha covered their noses and looked at them strangely. How could "dog shit" smell good?

Yang Bo laughed, "This is ambergris!"

Feng Jia was stunned for a moment, then put down the hand covering his nose, and instantly felt a scent coming to his nostrils!

It is not appropriate to say that such a big lump is dog shit, because this big lump is the size of a small rubber ball for children to play with. It is just gray in appearance and looks very ordinary. It really looks like a big lump of dog shit.

!

"Ambergris?" Feng Jia looked over, "Is it dragon's saliva?"

Yang Bo laughed and said: "Ambergris is actually the secretion of sperm whales. Since sperm whales do not have the coracoid to digest fish, they will solidify the secretions in the intestines and then spit them out, forming ambergris. This is used to make perfume.

important raw material!”

Mu Shasha stared at the ambergris in Yang Bo's hand, "No, it turns out that perfume is made from this raw material?"

She put down her hand and smelled the rich aroma coming to her face!

The few people who were still discussing just now have dispersed!

The guy who just said he wanted to eat dog shit, hey, come back quickly!

Yang Bo handed the ambergris to Wu Qiang, "Actually, the ambergris that was just spit out was black and smelly, and it was still soft. Under the soaking and washing of sea water, it gradually turned into gray, light gray, and finally white. (

Baidu search 5 8 8 Check out the book (the fastest and most stable network update) The white ambergris has the best quality, but it needs to be soaked in seawater for more than a hundred years to completely float out the impurities before it can become a dragon. The best in salivation."

While talking, Yang Bo gently tapped the outer shell of the ambergris, and rustling dust fell down. Soon, the gray surface revealed the white inner substance!

The smile on Yang Bo's face became even brighter. This piece of ambergris has experienced at least a hundred years of history before it can turn into such a snow-white color. Moreover, such ambergris is worth as much as gold!

"Doesn't that mean that ambergris can be obtained by killing sperm whales?" Feng Jia has a great sense of business and immediately realized the crux of the problem!

Yang Bo nodded, "This is indeed an important method. In the past few years, the annual trading volume of ambergris was about 600 kilograms. In the past two years, it has dropped to 100 kilograms. The number of sperm whales is also decreasing year by year, and

, not every sperm whale has ambergris in its body!”

"After sperm whales form ambergris, they can excrete it, and only a small part will condense in the intestines. As a result, the number of sperm whales killed accidentally is very large!"

"How much is this piece of ambergris worth?" Mushasha asked.

Yang Bo smiled and said, "This piece of ambergris weighs two kilograms and is worth several million!"

"I'm willing to pay 6 million to buy it!" A man in Tang suit came over. He stared at the ambergris in Yang Bo's hand and explained: "I am an incense maker. We Chinese people think ambergris is good for the heart.

It’s good for the brain and stomach, so when making incense, I’ll also add a little bit of it.”

Yang Bo shook his head, "Forget it, I plan to keep it for myself. According to the ancients, being able to get ambergris is considered extremely lucky."

The man in Tang suit was a little regretful, but he smiled calmly, "That's true, because the ancients thought ambergris was the saliva of a dragon. When the dragon rested on the stone, the saliva floated to the water, and then gathered together to dry and solidify. Fishermen

We collect them and it becomes this very expensive thing.”

“Because collecting ambergris was very dangerous, the Chinese preferred to pay high prices to buy it from Persian and later Portuguese merchants. Royal courtiers often wore it as decoration, and rich families would also spray dragon water into the water when making tea.

Saliva powder. At the same time, it is also a kind of incense, used in festival celebrations."

After that, the man in Tang suit looked at Yang Bo again, "Sir, do you really have no intention of selling? How about 10 million?"

Yang Bo still shook his head.

The man in Tang suit couldn't help but feel a little regretful. He took out a business card and handed it to Yang Bo, "If sir, you are willing to sell it, please give me a call!"

Yang Bo took the business card, glanced at it casually, and nodded slightly.

Many people heard their conversation, and even heard the number the man said, ten million!

Such a simple piece of something is so valuable!

This is much easier than buying a lottery ticket!

Many people pretended to be casual and walked around on the beach. Everyone kicked the sand under their feet, hoping to find treasures in the beach!

There was only one piece of ambergris, and everyone tried hard to find it, but no one could find it!

At this time, Yang Bo and Feng Jia were already on the yacht!

Sitting on the yacht, Feng Jia took out the Hetian jade carving he bought. Yang Bo looked at it twice, nodded, and took it again. Now that he had Yang Bo's approval, he was relieved!

The sea breeze blows slowly, which is cool and comfortable. Looking up into the distance, the sun sets in the distance, and the water and sky are the same color!

Feng Jia brought the diving suit and asked Yang Bo, "How are you doing? Do you want to go for a swim?"

"Diving?" Yang Bo's eyes lit up. In fact, he didn't need this equipment, but he still took it, "Okay, I also want to see the underwater world!"

"I want to go down too!" Yue Junyao said.

Yang Bo frowned slightly, "The bottom of the sea is too dangerous, you should stay on the boat. Look here, the sea and sky are the same color, how beautiful it is!"

"I have the ability to protect myself. How about we have a fight?" Yue Junyao said.

Yang Bo waved his hand quickly, "No, no!"

Yang Bo knew very clearly that he would not be able to defeat the opponent, so he had no choice but to say: "Let me explain to you some common poisonous species. You must avoid them later. The first one is the sea snake..."

Within a moment of Yang Bo's explanation, Feng Jia was already in the water.

It was already getting late, and it would be dangerous if we went down any later. After all, it was pitch black under the sea, so we couldn’t see the danger!

After Yang Bo explained it, the sky gradually darkened. He put on his diving suit and got into the water!

When he got underwater, Yang Bo pulled out the oxygen nozzle. For him, diving was like walking on the ground without any pressure!

There are many species in the sea. He has already seen it once, but this sea area is obviously a little polluted, and the sea water is not as pure as the sea water on Xiaoyao Island.

The bottom of the sea was a bit dark, and some swimming fish actually emitted a faint light, which surprised Yang Bo.

The seaweed was floating, and Yang Bo tried his best to avoid it for fear of getting entangled. He looked up and saw Yue Junyao coming down, but she was like a curious baby, wanting to touch everything.

Even if it's seaweed, she has to pull it out!

Yang Bo was stunned. What she was holding was seaweed, and it was clearly a sea snake!

Danger!
Chapter completed!
