Chapter 218 A date with pangolins
The sparrow was determined to be with Wu Di, but the reason was that his strength was not as strong as the Dog Cat! Just as Wu Di wanted to inquire about the origins of the military advisors, he followed the flow and said:
"Then I'll work hard for three people to transport these boxes of things back to the capital. Be sure to pay attention to safety on the road. Don't resist when you see it by the border guards. We don't lack this thing. After returning to Beijing, you have a good rest for a few days and don't have to come over again. I'll stay in Yangon for a few days before going to the public market. There will be no danger."
The next day, Wu Di slept until noon. When he woke up, he felt very refreshed. The gray sky in the mining area was so cute that he saw it. Dear second brother, you have become Wu Kunta's life savior, but they are still blaming you! Otherwise, you come back and go over to explain it? I'm reluctant to do it because you are old and weak. How about you accompany you?
When he got on the car heading to Myitkyina, he realized that sleeping too much is actually a mistake. In this car that was swaying around and slowly climbing like a turtle, what else can he do without sleeping? Sadly, can he sleep?
When Wu Di and the sparrow arrived in Myitkyina, it was the most lively time of the day. Various stalls and vendors emerged from the bustling, dilapidated, straight and curved streets and alleys. Wu Di glanced casually and saw at least three stalls selling elephants and tiger parts. He smiled and said:
"Hurry up, put down the things on the street and go for a walk!"
Myitkyina is one of the most abundant natural resources in Myanmar. Two-thirds of the land is covered with dense forests and has a subtropical climate, so the corresponding wildlife resources are relatively abundant. Therefore, there are many stalls selling teeth, whips, horns, palms, etc. of rare animals such as elephants, rhinos, tigers, leopards, bears, and bisons. It is hard to tell whether they are real or not. But for Wu Di, these are not difficult at all. The only difference is that he is looking at them.
According to the original plan, he would not stay in Myitkyina, so he should go straight to Mandalay and then switch to the Magog Mining Area. However, he harvested so many red and sapphires yesterday, so he didn't have to suffer anymore, so time was still very relaxed. It was also a very good feeling to linger in the streets of this foreign country. However, he looked at the sparrow with a little dissatisfaction, saying, would it feel more pleasant if you change someone? This public market, you can do whatever you want, and you can get a lot of colorful things. You have to grab it even if you kill me!
While chewing on the specialty of Myitkyina, Wu Di used sparrows to tease some cunning stall owners. Yes, tease! Because their rare animal parts are more fake than the antiques in Panjiayuan! But strangely, even though they knew that Wu Di was the mastermind, those stall owners often only stared at the sparrows with resentment. Later, the two realized that the sparrows, which were black and thin, and fluent in Burmese, were regarded as locals by them! Then their actions were easy to understand, Burmese!
Wu Di didn't care about the authenticity of things. He had just seen a large number of jade and red sapphires, and he also needed a process of adjustment. These strange things just gave him a relaxed atmosphere. Treasure hunting is to have fun by stretching and relaxing!
It was still a stall selling ivory and leopard whip. When the sparrow saw Wu Di squatting down again, she couldn't help but feel a toothache. He couldn't help but say quietly in Wu Di's ear:
"Fifth Brother, you are still young. Besides, you already have a leopard whip...hehe!"
Wu Di smiled and gave it to the boy, and said with a smile:
"At a young age, what can I learn? I'm looking at this... stone!"
The sparrow curled her lips and squatted down in grievance. What am I doing? Don’t think that you are elusive every day, I don’t know that I have two sisters-in-laws...
"Stone? You said my treasure is stone?"
The stall owner was immediately excited when he heard the sparrow's question. He picked up the gray-black stone-shaped thing weighing about four or five kilograms, and shouted with fingers.
The sparrow shrugged and said helplessly:
"Fifth brother, he said this is natural beef yellow."
"Bulin? Then how big should this cow be? Bull Demon King?"
Wu Di smiled and waved his hand, signaling the stall owner not to make trouble, and showing him the things is serious.
The stall owner glared at the sparrow with hatred. He indeed regarded this little man as a helper for the evil!
Wu Di grinned unfaithfully, took the stone with both hands, then raised the corners of his eyebrows slightly, and the strangeness in his eyes flashed away. This was actually a top-notch Long Danxiang!
Wu Di didn't know much about Long Danxiang, but he knew that the stool of this sperm whale worshipped by the perfume world should not be like this, at least the taste should not be like this.
The ambergris that had just been discharged into the sea initially became light black and smelly. Under the influence of sea water, the excrement of this sperm whale will gradually turn into gray, light gray, and finally become white. When you smell it carefully, you will feel a faint but lasting fragrance, which will make it even more amazing when you burn it!
The white ambergris has the best quality. It takes a hundred years of soaking in Shanghai water to float out all the impurities before it can become the best among ambergris. The worst one is like this stone, just like it, at most it will only be soaked for about ten years.
But why does the Book of Heaven remind you that it is the best? Wu Di immediately looked in. It turned out that the gray and black sè was just a layer of disguise. Under the thin layer of skin, there was an extremely simple pure white!
"How much does this...beef cost?"
"Ten thousand, ten thousand euros!"
The stall owner saw that Wu Di was a Chinese, most of whom came to buy wool materials, so he gritted his teeth and quoted a sky-high price. The sparrow almost swept the stall in front of him, and he had to pay 10,000 yuan? I'll give you one!
Wu Di smiled and said:
"Boss, let me tell you the truth. This thing cannot be natural beef yellow. Have you ever seen a stone that grows so big in the belly of a cow? Judging from the weight, it is probably a piece of amber! If the price is appropriate, I will buy it and play with it. No, just put it here and sell it as a beef yellow."
When the boss heard this, he scratched his head. In fact, he didn't know what it was. When the prodigal son of his neighbor's neighbor stole it and sold it to him, he said it was natural beef yellow, so he sold it as yellow. However, even a piece of natural amber must be worth a lot of money, right?
He thought for a while and said:
"Sir, you are a person who knows the goods. How much does this thing cost? If it is appropriate, I will sell it to you!"
"The price of amber is not high. It is a natural top-quality product. It can cost less than one euro per gram unless it is an antique or a jing artwork. Your appearance is so bad, but it is quite big. If you can carve something and play with it, I will pay a thousand euros, which is already a very high price."
"Impossible. I've weighed this thing, it's four kilograms, and it can't be sold at this price."
Although the boss only spent 10 euros when he received it, he wanted to test Wu Di's bottom line again, so he refused directly.
Wu Di stood up. Even the best Long Danxiang was worth only more than 100,000 euros. He wanted to buy it, just to satisfy his curiosity. Since he didn't sell it, then forget it.
The boss was anxious when he saw Wu Di leaving. He stood up and pulled his clothes. Uri said a lot more. The sparrow smiled and said:
"Fifth Brother, he asked him to add more and sell it to you."
Wu Di shook his head and was about to step forward. The boss stuffed Long Danxiang into his arms and reached his hand in front of him.
The sparrow followed Wu Di, hugged Long Danxiang and looked suspiciously for a while, and asked:
"Fifth Brother? This thing is really amber? Aren't that thing all transparent? I remember that there should be a fly, mosquito or something inside..."
"Haha, you kid knows amber too? If it is really amber, this thing is indeed the price. But this part is not. It is called Long Danxiang, a very precious top-quality spice."
The sparrow grinned and suddenly lost interest. They have always hated spices. As a special force soldier, if he had a special smell on his body when he was on duty, it would be almost a nightmare!
In front of another stall on this street, Wu Di stopped. He looked at a huge blood amber on the stall and scratched his head. Could it be that Cao cāo went to China from Myanmar?
Blood amber is a type of amber, with red or crimson appearance, and its main origin is Myanmar. But if you want to see such a large piece, don’t even hear it! Not to mention that there is a small pangolin here!
Wu Di remembered the piece of jade he bought in Pingzhou. He had not had time to untie it, otherwise he could be a brother to this piece. Of course, the premise is that this big guy is also natural.
The blood amber in front of me is more than 30 cm in length, and its width and thickness are also more than 10 cm. It is crescent-shaped, with a dark red color like the purest wine, emitting a charming glory under the street lights.
Although he was sentenced to death in his heart, Wu Di couldn't help but squat down. Why was this guy thinking about sealing a pangolin in?
I squatted down and saw it more clearly. The red sè was just like the wine in the bottle, even and transparent. There was not even a trace of impurity in the huge volume of blood. Under the street light, the pangolin's body was visible, which was even more realistic than the one in his glass.
Wu Di smiled. If you could take out a piece of natural amber so pure, I would call you a master!
Just as he was about to get up and leave, his heart suddenly moved, and Tianshu started to activate it. With just a moment, the guy took a deep breath and began to look at the stall owner. By the way, although he was an aunt from Burmese, he would be beaten if he called him an old man?
