I have a paradise

Everyone saw the use of such an exquisite wooden box, the inside would definitely be a treasure, but when they opened it, it turned out to be such a broken stone, which was naturally disappointing.

At that moment, I felt that I was humiliated by these two people, and looked over at them with unkind faces.

Old God Wang Yi was sitting on the chair, looking at the old man with a calm expression, completely indifferent to those expressions.

When he saw the stone, Old Gao was also shocked, thinking it was a stone, and the person in front of him was here to make himself happy, but then he thought of Li Fan's previous credit and felt wrong.

Then he stretched out his hand to touch the stone in the box. What he saw was not the roughness of the stone, but a waxy texture. When he moved in his heart, he suddenly remembered something.

He stretched out his hand to pick up this'stone', watched it carefully, and then got closer and smelled it. The few people who were planning to attack were also taken aback when they saw Gao's appearance.Then he glanced at each other and waited for the senior's opinion.

"Little friend, can I scrape off a little bit of your thing? Don't worry, just a little powder." Senior Gao put down the'stone' and said to Wang Yi.

"Yes, please." Wang Yi said with a slight smile.

After obtaining Wang Yi’s permission, Elder Gao took out a small set of tools from the cabinet next to him, took out a small knife the size of a razor, took out a piece of white paper and laid it on the table, and placed the “weird stone”. Go to the top, and then use a knife to gently scratch the surface, some off-white particles are scraped onto the paper.

Put the strange stone back into the box, Senior General Gao took a palm-sized censer next to him, poured the off-white powder into the censer, and lit it.

A faint blue smoke floated up, then disappeared into the air, and soon the room was enveloped by a unique fragrance.

Several people involuntarily involuntarily indulged in it, one by one, their minds were emptied, and after a long time, they breathed out slowly.

"Old man, what is this?" Yu Chenghong asked when he woke up quickly.

"Yeah, what is this? It feels very comfortable." The others were also curious.Wang Yi and Li Fan looked at each other, and their tight faces also smiled.

"You should have heard of this thing." Older Gao didn't rush to give the answer, and took a sip of tea from the teapot.Seeing other people's listening posture, he spoke.

"If I guessed correctly, this should be Ambergris."

"Ambergris?!"

"To Ambergris!" Gao nodded affirmatively.

"In Duan Chengshi's "Youyang Miscellaneous", it is said that in the Southwest Sea, you do not eat grains, but eat meat. Often acupuncture cattle and veins, take blood and milk raw food. No clothes, only use sheepskin under the waist. Cover it. The woman is white and upright, and the Chinese people prey and sell it to foreign merchants at several times the price. The only land is ivory and Ahmad."

"The Ambergris mentioned here is Ambergris. There are numerous records of Ambergris in ancient and modern times, both at home and abroad. When Emperor Jiajing of the Ming Dynasty, Gao Yaojin presented 8 taels of Ambergris, the Emperor Jiajing ordered it to The price was 760 taels of silver, and the Prince Shaobao was added, so the enthusiasm for looking for ambergris began quietly."

"Ambergris has also become a royal tribute. At that time, there were regulations. Every year, local officials along the coast have a tribute to ambergris."

"I have seen a few pieces of ambergris in recent years, but most of them are dark brown with a fishy smell. When they are dried, they will have a long-lasting fragrance when lit.

This ambergris is off-white, which is only slightly worse than the best quality ambergris. To be honest, this is something you can meet and not expect now."

The old man looked at the ambergris in front of him, and admired again and again.

"Old man has good eyesight." Wang Yi applauded.

"Do you want to shoot this ambergris?" Gao said, pointing to the ambergris in the box.

"Older Gao is interested?" Wang Yi smiled.

"Of course, you can't miss this kind of thing."

"Old man, old man." Yu Chenghong hurriedly said: "Old man, such a big piece of ambergris, you will definitely not be able to use it up, so you can give us some money."

"Yes, old man, share the profit." The other two also said.

"Understand, you have a share, right? Ambergris has a long-lasting fragrance, and such a big ambergris is enough." Gao Lao waved his hand again and again.

"Thank you, Gao." When he heard Gao's promise, everyone thanked.

"Little brother, let's weigh it first, and then discuss the price."

"Yes." Wang Yi nodded.

Soon the weight of Ambergris weighed out to a total of 5.428 kg.It is two grams less than what Wang Yi said before. This should be what he scraped off several times before.

“The price of ambergris sold at Christie’s in Gaul last year was between 1.8 million and 2 million per kilogram. The price per gram of ambergris was between 1,000 and 2,000 yuan.”

"Little friend's ambergris is of very good quality, so buy it at a price of 1,800 yuan per gram."

"Little friend, what do you think?"

The price of 1,800 yuan per gram was much higher than what he had learned before, and the auction price was generally much higher than the normal trading price. Private transactions may only be 1,500 yuan per gram, Wang Yi Naturally willing.

"Lao Gao deserves to be the Taishan Beidou of the collection world. He is highly respected. I am very satisfied with the price. Everything will be done as you said." Wang Yi nodded and said.

"Well, at this price, I will let someone draw up a contract, and then we will officially trade."

"As for how we will allocate them, we will talk about it later, how about negotiating after we buy things?" Gao asked several people.

"Just follow the old man's way." Several people nodded.

After making a phone call, a lawyer who looked savvy and capable soon walked in and worked out a contract for both parties.

5.428 kilograms of ambergris, one thousand eighteen per gram, a total of 9.77 million, the tax rate for this kind of collectibles transaction is not high, only 3%, less than 300,000.

After the contract was drafted, Wang Yi read it and there was no problem. The two parties signed the contract. After a while, Wang Yi received a text message from the bank: "China Construction Bank reminds you that your end number is xxxx ’S bank account has just received RMB 9,770,400 in RMB transfer, and the current balance is RMB 10,193,743.65."

After the transaction was completed, both parties were satisfied.

"You bought this carved wooden box from there. The craftsmanship is so exquisite that it can be called a work of art." After collecting the ambergris, the old man pointed to the carved wooden box and said.

"I saw this by accident at a street stall. I liked it, so I bought it with money." Wang Yi said casually.
