Galactic Garbage Station

Chapter 44 Nautilus

Young man, that snail is very beautiful, how about selling it to me for two hundred yuan? When Su Jing was selling fish, some tourists on the beach also came to join in the fun, because those stone fish were too eye-catching, but there was a middle-aged man , but took a fancy to the snail that Su Jing picked up.

Not for sale, Su Jing said.

One thousand. The middle-aged man thought about it and said.

Not for sale. Su Jing shook his head.

Three thousand. The middle-aged man tripled it all at once, which made Su Liang, Su Xiaolin, and some surrounding villagers calm down. This inconspicuous snail that they ignored was actually worth three thousand? Is it more expensive than lobster?

Unexpectedly, Su Jing still said lightly: Not for sale.

Su Liang and Su Xiaolin secretly pushed Su Jing, and they were worried for Su Jing. It was only a snail, and it was still not sold for 3,000 yuan?

If you don't sell a snail for 3,000 yuan, how much do you want to sell? I want to buy it for my wife. She likes this kind of strange and beautiful thing the most, otherwise it wouldn't cost 3,000 yuan. The middle-aged man Some were dissatisfied, feeling that Su Jing was asking for a price.

3,000 yuan for what? A woman in a one-piece swimsuit approached.

Wife, don't you think this snail is very beautiful, do you like it? The middle-aged man laughed.

It's pretty, but 3,000 yuan is too expensive, don't waste your money. The middle-aged woman smiled, obviously her husband was willing to buy her a gift, and she was still happy, but she didn't want to waste money and said, Young man, can we sell it for 1000 yuan? Don't think that we can just dig if we have money. How much is a snail worth? If we miss our village, we won't have this temple anymore.

Not for sale. Su Jing still shook his head.

Forget it, keep the mold yourself. The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and pulled the middle-aged man away.

A Jing, what kind of snail is this worth so much? Not even selling it for 3,000 yuan? Su Liang asked, Su Xiaolin, Su Hu and the others also looked closely.

If I'm not mistaken, this should be a nautilus. Su Jing said. He didn't recognize this kind of snail at first, but after checking Baidu, he found the result. The entire spiral shell of the nautilus is as smooth as a circle. Disc-shaped, shaped like a nautilus, hence the name Nautilus.

Nautilus is an ancient mollusk with a life history of hundreds of millions of years, but its appearance and habits have changed very little. It is known as a living fossil and has high value in the study of animal evolution. They have more than 30 ancestral groups, but in the catastrophe 65 million years ago, they were wiped out with the dinosaurs to the fate of extinction. The few remaining surviving nautilus descendants inhabit the Indian Ocean and Atlantic waters, and the remaining Ponzi nautilus, deep-necked nautilus, big-headed nautilus and two less certain species.

Today, nautilus is as rare as a giant panda, how could Su Jing sell it for thousands of dollars? In fact, he was entangled in his heart. He couldn't sell it for any amount of money. Nautilus is a national protected animal, and it would be miserable to be reported.

What kind of snail is a nautilus? Su Liang asked strangely.

I'll tell you later. Su Jing carried the nautilus in the bucket and went to Zhenhong Seafood Shop. Su Liang and Su Xiaolin followed curiously. They knew Su Jing best and knew that Su Jing never made a loss. Business. When they arrived at Zhenhong Seafood Store, Su Jing put the nautilus in a fish tank. Su Zhenhong and the others learned that Su Jing had made tens of thousands more in the blink of an eye. Point, but the ability to make money is really not covered.

A Jing, what kind of snail is this, used as a pet? Zhao Mengxiang asked when she saw Su Jing put the snail in a fish tank and thought the snail was very beautiful.

I have never even seen this kind of snail. Su Zhenhong said in surprise.

Someone bid 3,000 just now, but A Jing didn't sell it. Su Liang smiled.

Three thousand? Su Zhenhong, Liu Shu, and Zhao Mengxiang were all stunned. They didn't expect this snail to sell for three thousand. Su Zhenhong and Liu Shu wondered if Su Jing was too greedy, but Zhao Mengxiang suddenly remembered the red sandalwood more than ten days ago. Regarding the wood matter, I thought that Su Jing must have his reasons for not selling it.

Su Jing took a photo of the nautilus and posted it on the forum of the Zhongyun Aquarium. He didn't want to hide it. The nautilus was either not for sale, or it was sold in a legal way, or it was sold for tens of thousands of dollars. Hundreds of thousands of dollars, but it is not worth it. Su Jing now, is it illegal to make money?

What Su Jing didn't expect was that a call came in not long after it was posted, and the caller ID was Zhongyun Aquarium. Su Jing was overjoyed and answered the phone: Hello, hello.

An old and excited voice came from the phone: Hello, I'm Ye Bo, a paleontologist. Now Zhongyun Aquarium is doing research. May I ask if you posted the post about nautilus on the forum?

Su Jing said: That's right.

The voice on the other end of the phone seemed even more excited: The nautilus is still with you, right? Where are you now, I will go to your place immediately, and don't sell or break the nautilus, take good care of it...

The old man's voice was even more powerful than Monk Tang's spell, making Su Jing dizzy for a while.

In the end, Su Jing told him the address, and less than an hour later, a white-haired old man and a middle-aged man walked quickly to Zhenhong Seafood Shop. Although the old man was old, his eyes were bright, and he could see at a glance. When I saw the nautilus in the fish tank, I walked up quickly.

It's really a nautilus. I didn't expect that there are nautilus in this sea area, and it's so big. Ye Bo's eyes lit up, staring at the nautilus, looking left and right, suddenly his pupils shrank suddenly, and a burst of light burst out. He said excitedly, This nautilus must be sent to the aquarium immediately, Xiao Ming, come and help.

Teacher, it hasn't been approved yet. The middle-aged man was speechless for a while. The teacher is fine with everything, but once he gets excited, he forgets everything about the world.

Oh, who caught this nautilus? Ye Bo asked.

Me. Su Jing raised his hand.

It's no problem to send this nautilus to the aquarium. This is a contribution to scientific research. Ye Bo said.

It's not impossible to send it to the aquarium, as long as you can afford it. Su Jing smiled. He understood that according to the Water Wildlife Resources Protection Law, the nautilus is not absolutely impossible to sell, as long as it is approved by the Ministry of Agriculture. , and each hand over 30,000 yuan of resource protection fees to the state can still be turned into legal sales. If it is sold to a private person, it is probably not easy to obtain the approval of the Ministry of Agriculture, but it is not easy to sell to the aquarium, and the aquarium can definitely handle all the procedures easily.

How much do you want to sell? Ye Bo looked at Su Jing with a half-smile.

150,000. Su Jing said, which made Su Zhenhong, Su Liang, Su Xiaolin and others suddenly open their mouths. This is too high a price, but what they can't think of is yet to come.

Deal, I'll transfer money to you right away. Ye Bo replied very succinctly, with almost no pause.

That's fine. According to Su Jing's estimate, the price of 150,000 yuan is a lot higher. I thought that Ye Bo might bargain, but when Ye Bo was so straightforward, he suddenly felt like he was at a loss, but said If you go out, it is like water that is poured out, and it is not easy to take it back.

The 30,000 yuan resource protection fee... Su Jing asked.

You're not selling the nautilus. The Zhongyun Aquarium is owned by the state. Handing over the aquarium is the same as handing it over to the country. I'm not buying it, I'm just giving you a subsidy. Jing turned 150,000.

... Su Jing was stunned for a while, but it turns out that this is still possible, so that the resource protection fee and tax are exempted.

Can you give me this little fish tank? Ye Bo asked.

Of course. Su Jing nodded, earning 150,000 yuan, he should have given him a fish tank.

Xiao Ming, come and help, take this nautilus to the aquarium as soon as possible, it is pregnant, it will give birth soon. Ye Bo said, and the middle-aged man and the fish tank moved the nautilus away.

... After listening to Ye Bo's words, Su Jing finally realized it. No wonder Ye Bo didn't blink. It turned out that the Nautilus was pregnant. Su Jing realized that he might have been at a loss, but then he thought about it. After all, the nautilus lays only a few to dozens of eggs, and the success rate of hatching is not necessarily high. It is not easy for people to do scientific research. At most, they should make some contributions to scientific research. Also worth it.
