Golden Fishery

Weir explained to Qin Shiou that the asphalt bath is a local feature. After it was discovered by the local Indians, it was used as a waterproof material for the bath.

Later, I found that when I took a bath, I applied a layer of asphalt that had just poured out on my body. After washing it, I felt more refreshed, and it was good for the skin after a long time.

Qin Shiou thinks this is unreliable. Doesn’t asphalt contain a lot of compounds such as benzene and benzopyrene? He remembered that these things were carcinogenic.

He told Weil the question, and Weil shrugged and said, "Maybe natural asphalt and chemical asphalt are not the same thing. Who knows the specific principle? Anyway, I heard that there are some microorganisms in these asphalt, which can eat people's old and bad things." skin, so it can be beautiful."

Qin Shiou looked in the mirror, his little face was white, tender and red, how could other men live if he was more beautiful? But who cares, it's a little bit handsome, wash!

The hotel itself is 120 yuan a night. The owner asked Qin Shiou what kind of special services to add, and the best one would be an extra 200 yuan.

Qin Shiouhao was so angry that he said, "The best, money is not a problem!"

The boss accepted the money with a smile, and asked a waiter to take the two of them to his room.

The room is very ordinary, and the bathroom is more stylish. It is not a bathtub but a small bathtub. There are some asphalt residues in it, which seem to be left over from the asphalt bath.

Qin Shiou turned on the video on his mobile phone and was chatting with Mao Weilong, saying that Lao Tzu was taking an asphalt bath, have you heard of it?

Mao Weilong was envious and jealous. He had never heard of this, so he waited expectantly.

Someone knocked on the door from behind, Qin Shiou said "It's about to start" and ran to open the door.

As a result, the door opened. Qin Shiou was a little dumbfounded. A woman with painted eyebrows and heavy makeup was waiting outside with a small box.

Seeing Qin Shiou, the woman in her forties stuck out her tongue and licked her lips seductively, and said with a smile: "Oriental? That's right, I haven't done business with Orientals for a long time. I like your little carrots... "

Qin Shiou was stunned, stopped the woman and said, "Wait. I said what are you doing?"

The woman raised her eyebrows and pretended to be seductive and said, "Didn't you order the top-level asphalt bath service? I'll serve you personally."

Qin Shiou pushed the woman out of the door in embarrassment,

Look at the bottles and covers in this woman's trunk. He knew what was going on, it was completely unexpected.

The woman yelled outside the door, saying that even if you don't accept the service and don't refund the money, Qin Shiou still wants money? Over there, Mao Weilong could see clearly through the camera. It's laughing.

When we went to dinner together in the evening, Qin Shiou complained that Weir gave me information indiscriminately. Weir looked puzzled and asked, "What's the matter, why did I give indiscriminate information?"

Qin Shiou asked, "Then have you enjoyed the asphalt bath?"

"Of course, look at my skin, does it feel smoother?"

"Besides, I'm not used to touching men's skin."

Weir looked hurt: "Qin, you are racist. You discriminate against black people."

I discriminate against a bird, Qin Shiou told the woman's matter full of resentment, Weir smiled awkwardly: "I guess there is something wrong with the service you chose. I only added fifty yuan, and an old man came in to wipe it off for me." A whole body of sludge, and nothing else."

Qin Shiou almost died of anger, spending too much money would do the wrong thing.

On the street, Qin Shiou saw locally produced asphalt mud in many shops.

The shop owner introduced to him that this is the raw material used in the asphalt bath. Inside is oil sludge with added fragrance, which is applied all over the body when taking a bath. Same thing with applying a mask.

Qin Shiou saw that the price was not expensive, so he bought dozens of copies for only 10 to 50 yuan a copy, and used them with Wei Ni when he went back. The two of them smeared each other.

The next day was about to get down to business. Qin Shiou and Weir went to a local company that excavated asphalt and planned to purchase 500 tons of asphalt for use first.

The price of this kind of natural asphalt is relatively cheap compared to other building materials. It only costs 350 yuan per ton. If it is bricks and stones, the price per ton will be several times higher.

This trip to the asphalt lake disappointed Qin Shiou. There was nothing to play at all. There was only black asphalt in the asphalt lake, no animals or plants, and it was very boring.

However, he did learn a lot of geography, such as the birth of Asphalt Lake. This is because there is a fault in the earth's crust here, and the two faults squeeze each other, so that the oil deposited in the deep layer is squeezed up, and then under the low pressure and high temperature environment, the oil is mixed with stone and soil, and finally becomes asphalt.

When he finally left, Qin Shiou had some gains. He was stopped and asked if he wanted fossils.

Qin Shiou is very interested in fossils. His villa lacks decorations, and he is worried about using famous paintings and antiques, so fossils are more suitable.

Seeing that Qin Shiou was interested, the local people became happy and took him to a warehouse.

The warehouse is full of animal fossils dug from the asphalt lake, such as western wild horses, ancient bison, 2-meter-tall land sloths, dire wolves, saber-toothed cats, North American lions and mountain dogs, etc.

These fossils are ugly if they are not cleaned up, but after being cleaned up by the people inside, they reveal their true colors, some are blackened, but most of them are well preserved. From an ancient bison fossil, Qin Shiou still felt the struggle.

"Isn't breaking the law?" Qin Shiou asked suspiciously.

The local man laughed loudly and said, "You can rest assured about this. The asphalt lake is now distributed to various companies. Since it was found in our land and we sell it, how can it break the law?"

Looking at Qin Shiou's complexion, he added: "The premise is that you don't take it out of the country. If you go out, it will be a little troublesome."

Qin Shiou asked Auerbach again, and the old lawyer said that indeed, as long as they are not key fossils protected by the state, ordinary fossils can be traded freely.

In this way, Qin Shiou felt relieved and bought some of the most complete fossils in the warehouse: five dire wolves, five western wild horses, two ancient bison, four land sloths, and two North American lions.

The price of fossils is not low. There are 18 fossils in total. The boss asked for 600,000 yuan. Qin Shiou talked with him and finally won it for 500,000 yuan.

Both sides are happy. In the eyes of the boss, these guys dug out of the asphalt lake are completely useless. In Qin Shiou's view, these fossils are interesting and face-saving as decorations. The average one is only 25,000 yuan, which is not expensive.

After receiving these fossils, Qin Shiou became happy again, it was not in vain.

After packing these fossils completely and sending them to the freighter, Qin Shiou first flew back to Farewell Island. Three days later, the fossils were delivered to the fishing ground, and he started to work.

In the living room, a fossil of a North American lion and an ancient bison was first placed. The tigers and leopards jumped and roared after seeing these guys.

Fossils of wild horses and ancient bison are placed at the entrance, and smaller dire wolves and land sloths are placed in the room. After arranging with Winnie, the villa has some artistic atmosphere. (to be continued)
