Chapter 14 Destruction of the Sabertooth Tiger Skin (Part 2)
Seeing everyone's fierce reaction, Zhang Heng was naturally overjoyed, but he still explained honestly: "My tiger skin is very big, but it hasn't been cut or processed well, but it is indeed a good piece of skin. I will open it now."
Let me show you."
As he spoke, he slowly unfolded the folded leather in front of everyone's astonished eyes, spreading it bigger and bigger, and finally it covered the entire counter. Even so, some of it fell outside, but the tail was a little short.
It’s less than half a meter long. This is something Zhang Heng is very dissatisfied with. It is said in Water Margin that a tiger’s tail is a great weapon. This tiger’s tail is so short, so it probably has poor combat effectiveness, so it was hunted by Cuckoo and the others.
Kill it!
"Hiss!" "Hiss, hiss..."
Zhang Heng was sighing with his head lowered as he looked at the tiger's tail. Suddenly, there were gasps in his ears. When he looked up, he was stunned because he saw fear in everyone's eyes, even the one who looked like
The same is true for mature and steady middle-aged people, whose eyes are so wide that their pupils are slightly dilated!
"Store manager, will you accept my tiger skin?" Zhang Heng asked aloud. Although the lady just said that she wanted to buy it, according to the village's rules, the sale was on a first-come, first-served basis, so he had to ask the store manager first.
Can.
As a result, before the store manager could reply, the middle-aged man next to him suddenly clapped his hands and said in a high-pitched voice: "What a strong domineering force. This is the power that the king of beasts should have. Even if there is only one piece of skin left, he can defeat everyone."
People are scared, young man, you can sell your skin today with confidence
Come on, I'll help you block other troubles. It would be a sin not to spread such a good tiger skin to let people appreciate it." In fact, the middle-aged man still had nothing to say, because just now he actually felt something.
The tiger pounced and almost fell to the ground in fright.
Luo Jiying also came to her senses at this time, and quickly answered and explained: "Sir, maybe you don't know that our country prohibits the sale of furs to protect animals, and you will be jailed if you are caught, so I asked the store to be closed.
, but you can rest assured now, with Brother Li’s help, it doesn’t matter if you buy this leather, you don’t have to take responsibility.”
Zhang Heng suddenly realized that there was such a thing. Although he knew that tigers were national first-level protected animals, he was just selling their skins, and they were not hunted within the scope of the earth, so he didn't think much about it at first.
Now I realized that I was too Menglang. Fortunately, I was lucky today. It seems that I met a good person. He quickly said: "Thank you, thank you Li, um, thank you Uncle Li."
The middle-aged rich woman answered: "Don't worry, young man, you won't get into any trouble if you sell the leather here today and keep it!" The meaning has been basically expressed, that is, sell the leather to her.
Zhang Heng said happily: "Thank you, thank you." But he still asked the store manager: "Manager, will you accept my skin? How much can you give me? I won't sell it if it's too cheap. This is an ancestral treasure.
"
For the first time today, Luo Jiying felt that the phrase "treasure passed down from his ancestors" was so appropriate. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir, the price is absolutely reasonable, but I have to wait until I take a closer look at this leather."
After finishing speaking, I didn't dare to look at the reaction of the lady next to me. I quickly took out a simple tool to measure it. To say that I looked carefully is actually an understatement. Anyone with a discerning eye will know that this leather is definitely genuine at a glance. The reason why I have to delay it.
When taking measurements, the main reason was that I couldn't suppress the speculation in my heart, because this leather looked too much like the rumored "saber-toothed tiger".
However, when Luo Jiying was measuring, the middle-aged couple next to them didn't mind it. They both touched the leather with their hands. The woman's eyes were filled with excitement, and the middle-aged man's eyes were filled with deep love, as if they were looking at a treasure!
The more Luo Ji measured, the more frightened he became. The total length of the long skin actually reached an exaggerated 3.3 meters. A Siberian tiger could reach this length, but be careful. The tail of a Siberian tiger is usually about one meter, or even
It's over one meter long, but the tail of this piece of leather is actually
It's only 45 centimeters. What kind of concept is this? The length of this piece of tiger skin is actually an exaggerated "2.85 meters". Hiss, Luo Jiying couldn't help but gasp. It's just based on her knowledge.
Look, this skin is probably the longest tiger skin in the world today.
Suppressing the fear that surged in my heart, I measured the width and leg length, and finally estimated a terrifying figure. The tiger weighed at least 400 kilograms, and the shoulder height could reach about one meter. It was really too big.
It's an exaggeration. What is the concept of a tiger weighing 800 kilograms if it pounces on a person? It can kill him in one face-to-face. There will be no suspense at all. Baby, it is really a baby. How can it be so domineering?
Unparalleled tiger skin exists in the world!
"Is it really the skin of a saber-toothed tiger? No, this is probably a cousin of saber-toothed tigers, a more terrifying saber-toothed tiger, and it is also very likely to be the king of saber-toothed tigers (the destroyer of saber-toothed tigers)." Luo Jiying said in
I thought in shock. But it's a pity that there are no teeth. The upper teeth of the Smilodon are bigger than the tusks of the wild boar.
It is as big as two daggers inserted upside down, and can reach a terrifying twenty centimeters in length. The teeth of saber-toothed tigers are only about ten centimeters, and the body is smaller than that of saber-toothed tigers. But whether it is saber-toothed tigers or saber-toothed tigers, they are earlier.
It became extinct on the earth tens of thousands of years ago, and all that is left now are only fossils, and no fur survives!
Suppressing the excitement and doubts in my mind, I carefully stroked the lines on the skin. It was light yellow, lighter than the color of today's South China tigers. There were multiple narrow black stripes on the back and sides of the body. The head was large and round, and the forehead was
There are several on it
The black horizontal stripes are intertwined, resembling the word "king". This is similar to the head of a Siberian tiger, but it is definitely not a Siberian tiger, because the structure of the entire fur is very similar to a lying big bear, with two front
The legs need to be longer!
It's an exaggeration, it's really an exaggeration. The value of this leather is simply immeasurable. The only pity is that the leather has not been processed well. The width is not the same on both sides, and some corners are torn on the sides, and there are even some dry parts.
There has been a faint trace of blood for a long time, but this trace of blood looks even more domineering. As soon as I smell this faint trace of blood,
Luo Jiying couldn't help but tremble at the fishy smell, as if the tiger had come back to life. It was as frightening as ever. Even if this skin was not preserved from ancient times, even if it was just hunted, or even if it was just a tiger that was artificially bred, its value would be insignificant.
Estimation should refer to the hidden value in it. What if this leather is used as a gift?
Zhang Heng raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch. He had to rush back at noon, otherwise his mother and sister would definitely be worried. It had been a while, and no one was talking. Even the three female clerks were stroking them excitedly.
Pizi couldn't help but said: "Excuse me, can you give me a price now?"
The middle-aged woman came back to her senses and understood when she looked at her husband's eyes. She quickly said: "Manager Luo, I wonder if this leather can be used?"
How could Luo Jiying not understand what it meant? When she took out the skin just now, she could see the middle-aged woman's love for this tiger skin, but now this situation? If it was just an ordinary tiger skin, that's all.
But this leather? He sighed heavily, thought about it for a moment, and finally could only say: "I'm sorry, sir. I can't be the master of your leather, but you can sell it to Mrs. Chen."
." This is completely against my will.
The middle-aged woman was overjoyed when she heard this. She nodded with satisfaction to Luo Jiying. Just as she was about to speak, she suddenly heard Luo Jiying say again: "Sir, please wait a moment. I need to help you check with the headquarters."
Purchase price data so that Mrs. Chen can give you a reasonable price."
As soon as Zhang Heng heard this, he answered: "Thank you, thank you to the store manager, and thank you to Mrs. Chen..." In fact, he was not very fond of this tiger skin, because there was absolutely no way that there was only this tiger in the original space.
He will definitely get more in the future, and he is eager to sell it now. He also wants to confirm whether selling animal skins can make him a lot of money. Moreover, he is too poor now, and only has a few hundred yuan for his whole body.
But at this time, the middle-aged woman reacted immediately. The contrast between Luo Jiying and Luo Jiying must have other meanings. Sure enough, when she saw Luo Jiying give her a hidden look, the middle-aged couple went to Luo Jiying after a while.
Went to the back room.
