253. Strange fragrance repays old kindness

"It's ambergris. For you humans, it's an excellent spice, but for me, it's of no use." Long said that Yi didn't care. There are a lot of this stuff on the ocean.

Ambergris is obtained after sperm whales swallow large molluscs, especially giant squids and octopuses. These have tough horny jaws and teeth in their mouths, which are difficult to digest. The jaws and teeth accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract, irritating the intestines.

It secretes a special waxy substance that wraps up the remains of the food, slowly forming ambergris. Some sperm whales will vomit the condensation, and some will excrete it from the intestines. Only

A small number of sperm whales retain ambergris in their bodies.

The ambergris discharged into the sea is light black at first. Under the action of sea water, it gradually turns gray, light gray, and finally white. The white ambergris is of the best quality. It has to be soaked in sea water for more than a hundred years.

Only when all the impurities are washed out can it become the top-grade ambergris. The most valuable is the white ambergris; the least valuable is the brown, which has only been soaked in seawater for about ten years.

Long Weiyi took out the ambergris, all of which were like white wax jade. The standard was top quality. Liu Zhizhi picked up a piece, felt it, and his expression changed: "I'm afraid these ambergris are not ordinary ambergris, they are squid and octopus swallowed by sperm whales."

, already spiritual.”

"It should be like this. I feel that there is spirituality in it and it is better than ordinary ambergris. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a good gift to fellow Taoists. I refined it with my thoughts and made it into a brick shape," Long Weiyi said.

arrive.

"This is too valuable." Liu Zhizhi said.

"Maybe it is for you humans, but for me, it is useless. If you are interested in gold and silver, there are many sunken ships at the bottom of the ocean." Long Weiyi said.

"No matter what, I would like to thank you Taoist Master Long. If you can be of any use to me in the future, please let me know." After Liu Zhizhi finished speaking, he put the twenty or thirty pieces of ambergris into his storage bag, each piece weighing less than one kilogram.

This is even when ambergris is lighter than water, so you can see the size of a piece.

The two talked for a while, and the east became faintly white. Long Weiyi said: "Fellow Taoist, please leave here. After dawn, it is easy to attract people's attention." After saying that, he retreated to the sea and submerged into the sea in a blink of an eye.

Liu Zhizhi also returned to his villa. Liu Zhizhi counted a total of twenty-eight pieces and weighed them. Each piece weighed about 1.2 kilograms. Liu Zhizhi checked the value of ambergris online and the purchase price per kilogram.

The price is between 10,000 and 45,000 francs, and the spice company sells it for 00,000 francs per kilogram after processing.

The value of Liu Zhizhi's batch of ambergris is definitely over 100,000 francs per kilogram. After being refined by Long Weiyi's thoughts and his own spirituality, it is much stronger than the best on the market. Liu Zhizhi picked up a piece.

After purifying it with my mind, it was very pure. Human spices could not reach this level. When his spiritual consciousness was withdrawn, Liu Zhizhi himself did not notice it. A faint fragrance was withdrawn with his spiritual consciousness and lingered throughout his body.

Liu Zhizhi divided the ambergris into three parts and took one part for himself, which was ten yuan in total. The other two parts were nine yuan each. He made a phone call and made an appointment with Song Qi and Lai Jixue. Lai Jixue had returned to Shanghai and made an appointment with the two of them.

Song Qi met at the teahouse and didn't say why.

He took out another box, which he had made from the heart of a big tree in the Taihang Mountains. It could just hold two pieces of ambergris. Liu Zhizhi sealed the box and cast a small spell to seal the box. Ordinary people could not open it at all.

If he forced himself to open it, not only would the contents be damaged, but he would also be cursed. He planned to send this copy to Xiao Han and give it to Nan Muyan. Last time in Qinling, thanks to Xiao Han's help, Liu Zhide was saved. As for Dai Bingcheng,

Although he is in his early thirties and not yet married, this guy is devoted to martial arts, so the spice given to him is of no use. We will talk about it later.

After leaving the house, Liu Zhizhi first went to the postal department to mail the wooden box, and then sent a text message to Xiao Han, saying that he was sending something to him, for his sister-in-law, and that the box was enchanted.

Liu Zhizhi took the other two pieces of ambergris and went directly to Song Qi. As soon as he entered the door, Song Qi and Lai Jixue were already waiting there, but it was not the two of them, but also Su Wanqing and Yan Bing.

When Song Qi saw Liu Zhizhi arriving, he smiled and said, "Brother Liu, you called us to make an appointment. We were planning to make an appointment with you, but we didn't know you called first. Why do you have a fragrance after you use perfume?" Listening to Song Qi,

Qi Yi said, and the other three smelled it, and there was a faint fragrance on Liu Zhizhi's body.

"No, I'm a grown man and I've never used any cosmetics. Oh, I know what's going on. I'll tell you the reason later. Why do you want to date me?" Liu Zhizhi asked curiously.

After the four of them heard this, they no longer asked about the fragrance on Liu Zhizhi's body, although they became more curious.

"It's a matter between Brother Lai and Miss Yan Bing. In the previous stage, the two returned to the Lai family's old house to finalize their affairs. The two will get married next spring." Song Qi said.

"Congratulations to both of you, you have finally achieved success." Liu Zhizhi congratulated them both.

"Brother Liu, when you made an appointment with us, did you also tell us the wedding date of you and Ah Li?" Song Qi asked.

"You all know what happened between Ah Li and I, and you will be indispensable when the time comes, but I'm here today to give you a gift." Liu Zhizhi smiled.

"What are you doing giving us gifts?" Several people looked at Liu Zhizhi in confusion.

Liu Zhizhi didn't say anything. He took out the two pieces of nine pieces of ambergris and pushed them in front of the two of them. They were very curious and each picked up one piece. It was larger than ordinary bricks, but not heavy.

"What is this? It's wax. It's rare that it's beeswax, but it doesn't look like it." Lai Jixue held it in his hand and looked at it repeatedly. Song Qi didn't think of what it was for a while, but Su Wanqing put it to her nose and sniffed it, and suddenly realized: "

It's spice, this is the fragrance on your body, what kind of spice is this, it smells good."

As soon as she said this, Song Qi and Lai Jixue put it in front of their noses and smelled it. They both said at the same time: "Ambergris?!"

Liu Zhizhi nodded: "It's ambergris, it's the best."

"Where did you get so much ambergris? You know, the amount of ambergris traded in the global market every year is only one hundred kilograms. Each of these eighteen pieces of ambergris is more than one kilogram, which means there are twenty

"That's more than one kilogram, which is one-fifth of the annual global trade volume." Lai Jixue asked in surprise.

"That's not all. I took out ten yuan, which was sent by fellow Daoist Long Weiyi last night to thank us." Liu Zhizhi finally realized what happened last night after telling him about it.

"It's good to know a divine dragon. There are countless good things in the ocean. In the future, should I find fellow Taoist Dragon to do business together?" Lai Jixue said with emotion.

"You have a beautiful idea. Fellow Taoist Master Long is just out of gratitude. She has no regard for worldly possessions." Liu Zhizhi smiled, and then said: "However, Fellow Taoist Long's batch of ambergris has been refined, and

, this fragrance is no better than ambergris on the market, it is very spiritual, even if used by practitioners, it can also have the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind. Before I came, I used my spiritual consciousness to purify a piece, and the fragrance was inadvertently carried on my body.

"

"It's a good thing." Song Qi felt it and said.

Su Wanqing and Yan Bing ignored the sighs of the three of them. Each took a piece and discussed in a low voice whether to make it into incense or perfume. Yan Bing even suggested that she had rescued a Hong Kong perfume master on a previous mission.

, that’s the person in charge of Paris Perfume’s branch in Hong Kong.

"You two seem to be quite busy these days. Brother Lai is bringing his wife home. What is Brother Liu busy with at this stage?" Song Qi asked.

"There are a lot of things at this stage. It can be said that it is full of worldly affairs and no peace." Liu Zhizhi recounted what he had experienced at this stage. Even Su Wanqing and Yan Bing stopped discussing how to deal with ambergris and listened to Liu Zhizhi.

explain.

"Brother Liu, you are saying that Noriyama Abe was killed by you. I always wanted to go to Japan to settle the score with this guy, but he was killed by you." Lai Jixue said with some regret.

"I didn't kill him. It should be said that he died in the hands of Ye Cheng. Do you know who Ye Cheng is?" Liu Zhizhi asked.

"Ye Cheng? I seem to have heard of it. By the way, he should be considered a Suishan sect. The Suishan sect was once prosperous in history, but was almost ignored later. Ye Cheng was lucky enough to get the Suishan inheritance, but it was incomplete and partial to the side sect.

." Song Qi suddenly thought of it.

When Liu Zhizhi heard what Song Qi said, he nodded. He didn't care too much. There was no deep hatred between Ye Cheng and him. Although he would come to see him in the future, when he was in Qinling, he saw that the other party's cultivation and realm were

, not necessarily like him, each sect always has some unique skills, but what Liu Zhizhi learned is more complicated, but gradually turned into his own thing, and slowly formed his own system, but to take shape, at least wait until his own golden age.

After the success of the elixir, this is why he has not thought about recruiting disciples at all. What he has learned is not systematic, and he is still exploring how to train others.

After Liu Zhizhi came back, he wrote a picture, which he promised his sister Liu Zhiyan, and then sent it to be framed.

Liu Zhizhi later went to Miaojiang again, and gave eight pieces of ambergris to Ah Li. After staying in Miaojiang for a few days, he received a call from Xiao Han, saying that the things had been received, and Xiao Han thanked him on the phone.

I met Liu Zhizhi and said that Nan Muyan liked it very much.

After Liu Zhizhi answered the phone, his heart moved. When Lai Jixue gets married next spring, he has promised to give him a jade. It is better to make preparations in advance. The jade materials are in the hearts of the Chinese people. One is Hotan jade from Xinjiang, and the other is jade from Myanmar.

This place is located in the southwest, so it is better to go to Tengchong, choose a piece of jade material, and make a work, so as not to be caught off guard.

He said something to Ali, got up and rushed to Tengchong.

Liu Zhizhi came here not to gamble on stones. He chose materials with the eyes of a jade carver. More importantly, the materials Liu Zhizhi chose must have a certain spirituality, not just based on appearance. Of course, good jade

There are also people who are very spiritual, but spirituality does not mean that they are good in the eyes of the world.

Liu Zhizhi once again appeared in the jade material market. The price of jade materials has soared in recent years, and many people are stocking up on goods. Liu Zhizhi did not look at the full jade material. He thought it was the material that had been rubbed out, or half the jade material. Not only

Not only the color, but also the shape should be paid attention to, so that the design can be based on the jade material and make full use of the natural characteristics of the jade material.
