Galactic Garbage Station

Su Zheng looked over and over with a huge pile of white things. It looked like it was not looking, white and grey mixed “stones”, and the surface was densely and numbly covered with “bee-eye”. It was as big as four bricks, but it was very light, about two or three kilos, like a pumice. The surface was soggy and smelled like a stink.

Su Zheng stared for a long time. The more he looked at it, the brighter his eyes were. He dared not believe it. This white thing looks like the legendary amber. Amberjack, as the name implies, should be fragrant, but after drying, it smells bloody wet.

Amberjack is undoubtedly a precious ingredient that can be used not only as a prestigious Chinese medicine, but also as a perfumer, and is highly sought after by perfume manufacturers and is more expensive than gold. It floats at sea because of its high price and is also known as "floating gold at sea”.

In ancient times, ambergris was thought to be the saliva of a “dragon" in the sea, dripping into the sea water and solidifying, formed over time. As the era progressed, a mystery of nature was solved, and the assertion that amber aroma was the saliva of "dragons” was not scientific, which gave rise to various speculations: some said it was formed by a volcanic eruption beneath the sea; some said that bird dung on the island was flowing into the water and weathered over a long period of time; some said it was beeswax, which was produced over a long period of floating in the sea water; and some said it was a special fungus.

But then it turns out that amber is the excrement of the sperm whale, the sperm whale is the largest in the tooth whale sub body size, the male maximum is up to 23 meters long, the female 17 meters, they feed on squid, octopus, etc., but the squid and octopus have tough keratin jaws and tongue teeth, very difficult to digest. When the sperm whale swallows large molluscs, the jaws and tongue accumulate in the stomach and intestine, stimulating the intestine, the intestine secretes a special wax, wrapping the residue of the food, slowly forming the amber

The ambergris discharged into the sea was initially light black, a state of no value. After more than a decade, it gradually turned brown, grey, light grey and finally white. White ambergris has the best quality, and it takes 100 years of immersion in Shanghai water to float all the impurities to become the finest in ambergris.

“Tiger, you didn't really bring me the finest white amber, did you?” Su Zheng couldn't believe it. He was cautious in his hands. He was afraid of breaking it when he got the treasure to hold something white.

“This was found near the Big Head Monster.” The tiger whale shouted.

“The Big Head Monster... do you mean the Sprinkled Whale?” Su Zhuang's head accounted for a quarter to a third of his body. He could indeed be regarded as a giant monster. The scalloped whale was huge and fierce. He was also regarded as the master of the maritime side. However, compared to tiger whales, he was weak. If there was anything that could invade the area where the scalloped whale operated, it was not a tiger whale.

“Ask Shen Hong, although this old fox can be a pit at times, but his expertise is too hard, he should know better about amber.” Su Zheng immediately called Shen Hong, but did not answer the other side.

Su Zheng thought that Shen Hong might be temporarily in trouble, so he took a few photos of the white blocks. In the meantime, he also took a few photos of "Bamboo Stone Chart". He edited a piece of text and sent it to Shen Hong. Let him take a look at it first, and then send it back to the Marlboro auction house before it's too late.

Unexpectedly, not long after the photo was sent, Shen Hong called back. The tone was full of excitement: “You said you took the photo, your own bamboo stone chart and ambergris? ”

“Yeah,” said Su Qian.

“Are you home, I'll come over to you later.” Shen Honghong was excited. At the same time, he was envious of jealousy and hate in his heart. How come all the babies arrived in Su Jinnah? This is so unfair. What he couldn't have imagined was that the bamboo stone chart was bought from him yesterday and cost only a thousand dollars.

“I'll be at the Marlboro auction house in a day or two at the most. You don't have to come here. Tell me first if this painting is real, if this white thing is amber, if so, how much is it worth?” Su Qian asked.

“Just looking at the pictures, how can I tell? However, it seems that the bamboo stone map is most likely the true story of Zheng Panqiao and should be worth more than a million. The fast white object is also likely to be ambergris, so colorful of the finest ambergris at an estimated price of more than 1,000 yuan and a gram, and your piece of sun dried about two kilos, or at least a million. Of course, if you meet a collector you like, you don't count by grams.” Shen Hong replied.

Su Zheng's eyes were bright and the bamboo stone map was worth a million yuan, and the amber aroma was expensive. Moreover, in Shen Hong's character, he said that the price is absolutely conservative, that is, it could add a lot more than a million, provided, of course, that the bamboo stone chart is true, and the amber is true, and if it is false, the estimate is almost worthless, instantly falling from heaven to hell.

“I didn't see the real thing, it wasn't tested, I couldn't make a precise decision, when are you coming... I'm a little busy right now, or I'll come over to your house later to help you stick it out.” Shen Hong looked impatient and obviously saw the treasure move again.

“This... okay.” For Su Zheng, going to the Marlboro auction house to make an appraisal is not much different from being determined at home. Home appraisal may be more reassuring, at least in your own territory.

“I'll be right over with this. Don't ruin Amberjack yourself.” Shen Hong hung up when he finished.

“What's so exciting?” Asked an old man next to Shen Hong.

“Look at that.” Shen Hong handed over the picture of his phone.

“Bamboo Stone Chart! Amber!” The old man's eyes suddenly lit up. In fact, the bamboo stone chart was fine. He had seen a few truths. Not so surprised. The key is the amber smell of such taste. It's rare, "he said.“ Let's quickly identify these things and then hurry over. Some people don't know how to pretend, randomly detect them, and the result is damage to the baby. ”

“Well, hurry up.” Shen Honghong nodded.

After Su Zheng hung up the phone, he did not stay at home to wait for Shen Hong. He asked the tiger whale: "Tiger, you said you found this thing near the Big Head monster site. Can you still see Big Head monster when you go out to sea? ”

“As you can see, they're still there.” The tiger whale screamed.

“Go, show me.” Su Zheng put the white blocks in the storage room at home, then put on his swimsuit, put on a submersible mirror, and took the cameras that he bought the other day that could be taken underwater and rode the tiger whale out to sea.

First, you want to see the legendary sperm whale with your own eyes, and second, if the tiger whale is really ambergris, it's worth going to the neighborhood to see if there's any more. It's not too late, it's too long to wait, even if there's amber, I don't know where it's going.

After a few dozen meters out of the sea, Su Jun suddenly realized the safety issue. What if the sperm whale attacks him? After all, tigers are still small and cannot be rivals of adult sperm whales. Think about it, however, as trout whales rarely prey on the sea, they like molluscs like squid and octopus, and trout whales travel at less speeds than tiger whales. It's a big deal not to get too close. Turn around and run as soon as you have a problem.

Su Zheng raised his courage and was taken by the tiger whale to swim rapidly out of the sea.
