"One hundred thousand? Did I hear correctly?"
"A butterfly is priced at 100,000, are you crazy?"
There were noisy discussions all around, and everyone couldn't believe their ears.
A few of them showed a sneer. This short-haired middle-aged woman must be a stooge, right? However, if the price was raised so artificially high all of a sudden, the level of support is too bad, right? Are you crazy about money
"It can't be a trap, right?" The middle-aged woman who still retains her charm also doubted.
"It's possible." The middle-aged man nodded.
At this moment, a burly man squeezed into the crowd and said with a smile: "I will pay 110,000."
A thin old man raised his hand and said: "I will pay 120,000 yuan."
Those who thought they were being asked at first opened their eyes wide. Aren't the burly man and the thin old man important guests at this pet show? Are they all big sellers that major exhibitors want to curry favor with? Isn’t the grade of this care too high
"Everyone, I want to know what kind of butterfly this is? Is it really worth such a high price?" asked a woman. She also liked this butterfly and originally wanted to buy it, but she was a little dissatisfied when it was suddenly raised to such a high price.
"This is the goddess of light, the most beautiful butterfly in the world..." The short-haired middle-aged woman didn't know if it was her professional habit as a pet expert, so she introduced it to everyone in detail, leaving many people stunned and the middle-aged couple also looked surprised. , with some disbelief, I checked the information about the Goddess of Light Butterfly online, and compared it with the photos, I found that it was almost exactly the same as the one in front of me.
The goddess of light butterfly, also known as the Helena Morpho butterfly, is a butterfly of the genus Morpho, in the order Lepidoptera, Nymphalidae. Produced in Brazil, Peru and other countries, it lives in the Peruvian Amazon River Basin in South America. It is very rare in number and has weak reproductive ability, so it is very precious. There are only 3 wild specimens in our country, 2 are in Xi'an Dielianhua Insect Museum, and 1 is collected by BJ collector.
Morpho Butterfly, the goddess of light, once appeared in the "World's Wonderful Insects Exhibition" and was auctioned at a Sotheby's auction in the United States for more than 40,000 US dollars, which was equivalent to about 360,000 yuan based on the exchange rate at the time.
Nowadays, this kind of butterfly has been artificially bred in Peru and circulated as an export product. It can also be seen in the domestic market. The A1 quality unspread butterfly costs more than 450 yuan, and the wing-spread handicrafts range from 800 to 1,000 yuan. However, most commercial specimens have their abdomens removed to avoid oil leakage from the abdomen and damage to the butterfly wings during circulation.
However, the Bright Goddess Butterfly in front of me cannot be measured by the existing quality standards. It is absolutely insulting to use A1 quality on it. This Bright Goddess Butterfly has exceeded the standard of measurement and reached a new height of beauty.
Therefore, several experts concluded in their hearts that this must be the purest and purest goddess of light butterfly in the wild. Compared with this one, the butterfly that sold for a sky-high price of 360,000 yuan looked like a fake.
And, this one is still alive! For some people, they don’t like live ones, but prefer specimens, because the lifespan of the Bright Goddess Butterfly is not long, and the butterfly is too fragile, and its wings are easily broken and discolored, affecting its appearance. However, specimens can be preserved permanently. However, for some businesses, this is a huge business opportunity, because perhaps this butterfly can be used to cultivate a top-notch goddess of light butterfly.
"I'll pay 150,000 yuan." The burly man suddenly increased the price again. The thin old man and the short-haired middle-aged woman frowned and hesitated.
"Don't argue for now. I won't sell it for the time being. I haven't even finished participating in the pet show yet. Why don't you leave your contact information first and we can discuss it later." Su Jing said with a smile.
"Young man, the wings of the goddess of light are very fragile. Don't break them the night before."
"Be careful not to scare it, otherwise its wings will be broken when it hits the glass."
"I think you should sell it to me and make it a specimen as soon as possible, otherwise the wings will be broken and it will be worthless."
The burly man, the thin old man, and the middle-aged woman with short hair all obviously wanted the butterfly and were worried that it would be damaged. However, Su Jing insisted not to sell it for the time being, so they had no choice but to leave their business cards.
Su Jing took their business cards and put them away one by one. In his mind, he had already thought of a way to make money. He did not plan to sell the goddess of light butterflies, not even one. He planned to sell specimens, so as to avoid being sold by others. If you cultivate it, once others cultivate it, you will lose your advantage.
Seeing someone offering a high price of 150,000 yuan, Su Jing still refused to sell it, which made many people sigh. The middle-aged women watching the show had already retreated in dejection. They all wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl in.
"The snails last time were really more than three thousand, right?" the middle-aged woman asked with an embarrassed look on her face.
"I have a friend who works in an aquarium, ask him." The middle-aged man took a photo of the nautilus last time, and sent it to the knowledgeable friend to ask what kind of snail it was and how much it was worth.
"This is a Nautilus, where did you take the photo?" A friend quickly sent a text message.
"I took this photo at the beach some time ago. A young guy caught it."
"Damn, why are so many people so lucky these days, why can't I catch one?"
"Why, nautiluses are precious?"
"Nonsense, of course it's precious. Our Zhongyun Aquarium bought one from Sujiacun some time ago for 150,000 yuan. Although the price has increased due to pregnancy, even an ordinary nautilus costs at least 30,000 yuan."
"..." The middle-aged man and the middle-aged woman looked at each other, their faces were full of embarrassment, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts. These days, people really can't resemble animals or animals by appearance. They can't be so arbitrary next time to avoid being laughed at. .
…
"Shouldn't this butterfly be put in an insect exhibition? Why should it be put in a pet exhibition?" While everyone was sighing at the beauty and preciousness of the goddess of light butterfly, a strange voice sounded from the crowd.
"This is none of your business, right?" Zhu Jianhua narrowed his eyes.
"I am also one of the exhibitors. Is it none of my business if you disrupt order like this? Not only me, but also several nearby exhibitors have objections to you. I advise you to take this butterfly away as soon as possible." A face full of youth The young man with acne scars squeezed out from the crowd, and everyone was attracted to this side. They were not satisfied with the lack of people there.
"Who is he?" Su Jing asked in a low voice.
"Wei Qiang, the manager of a branch of Para Pet Store in Zhongyun City, is a competitor of our Perfect Pet Park." Zhu Jianhua whispered.
"I see." Su Jing nodded and had an idea in her mind. She and Perfect Pet Park were undoubtedly on the same boat, and their interests were closely related. Not only the sale of some pets, but also the scenes of the civet cats were connected by Perfect Pet Park. , will continue to cooperate in the future. The reputation of Perfect Pet Park has a great impact on Su Jing's interests.
"My butterfly is a pet." Su Jing said.
"Haha, don't laugh me to death, can this be considered a pet?" Wei Qiang said with an exaggerated smile.
"Then according to your opinion, what counts as a pet? What is the standard?" Su Jing said calmly.
"Watch it." Wei Qiang led a husky, gave an order, and threw a ball out at the same time. The husky ran over and came back with the ball in its mouth. Wei Qiang said, "See, this can be called a pet, and the butterfly can only be called a pet." It’s an insect, a commodity.”
"Haha, you've got your eye on it too." Su Jing smiled. This smile puzzled many people around him. Zhu Jianhua's heart skipped a beat. What did Su Jing want to do
