They didn't disturb the middle-aged man. When he stopped, Old Li said, "You've got another nice stone, haven't you?"
The middle-aged man heard the voice and looked up. He said in surprise, "Teacher, what brings you here?"
The old man handed the stone egg to the middle-aged man and said, "I have something to do, so I'm here to borrow your cutting tool. Cut this stone and see if it's an uncut stone."
"This thing looks a bit weird. It looks like an uncut stone, but it doesn't seem to be. Let me cut it open and see."
The middle-aged man held it in his hand and looked at it a few times. Then, he took the stone egg and walked over to the cutting machine.
Liu Xiaobei and the others followed. The middle-aged man stuck the stone egg in the fixed position of the cutting tool and pressed the switch of the cutting machine.
As the cutting blade of the cutting machine spun at high speed, the middle-aged man moved it closer to the stone egg bit by bit. When the cutting blade touched the stone egg, it only cut a millimeter in. The middle-aged man lifted the cutting machine and looked at the incision on the stone egg.
Liu Xiaobei also looked over but didn't see any changes.
"There's no green. I'll continue to cut it," the middle-aged man said and operated the cutting machine to cut the stone egg again.
After cutting another millimeter in, the middle-aged man put the cutting machine away again.
He looked at the incision and said that there was no green yet. Then, he continued to cut it.
After cutting another millimeter in, there was still no green. The middle-aged man said, "Maybe it's a useless stone."
The old man nodded and signaled him to continue.
At this time, the middle-aged man cut one centimeter in and then put the cutting machine away. However, there was still no green. The middle-aged man didn't say anything and cut again …
This time, the middle-aged man seemed to have lost his patience. He directly cut the stone egg in half.
Liu Xiaobei and the others all looked at the stone egg.
"This is definitely not jade, but it doesn't look like a waste rock either. This is … it should be the egg of some kind of creature. Due to the long period of time, it has been petrified." The old man picked up half of the stone egg and looked at the smooth cut.
Liu Xiaobei also looked at the cut of the stone egg. It was indeed not bad. From the cross-section, it looked like an egg, but the center of the egg had been petrified.
"Is this thing still valuable?" Liu Xiaobei asked the question that Liu Xiaobei was concerned about.
I'm not a professional in this area, so I need to find a professional biologist. From the angle of the petrification of the egg, it might have been from a very long time ago. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been petrified. This has a certain archaeological value, but I can't determine how valuable it is. I suggest that you find a relevant expert for reference. After that, with the expert's appraisal, I'll collect it or auction it. Both of you can decide, "Old Man Li said.
Liu Xiaobei and the beautiful CEO looked at each other and nodded. They could only do so now. Liu Xiaobei couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He had thought that these were treasures! He didn't expect that he couldn't even determine the price. However, Liu Xiaobei thought that since Liu Xiaobei could feel its energy fluctuations, it should be good stuff. He could only put these things in the auction house first and study them later.
Back at the auction house, Liu Xiaobei gave this cut egg and the other three eggs to the beautiful CEO and asked her to keep them in the auction house.
Although there should be a lot of these stone eggs at the bottom of the sea, Liu Xiaobei wasn't interested in collecting them now.
The beautiful CEO called the hotel to order dinner. Liu Xiaobei invited the girl in black silk, Liu Xiaobei, and the other two to have dinner together. He didn't let the others go, because Liu Xiaobei had something to discuss with the beautiful CEO.
When they arrived at the hotel, Liu Xiaobei asked for a private room. Liu Xiaobei took out the three frozen Ice Worms from his backpack and gave them to the girl in black silk. Liu Xiaobei said, "There are very few Ice Worms in the coastal waters of Haikou City. Liu Xiaobei only found three in three hours. It seems that if we want to build a hospital to go on smoothly, we have to go to the deserted island or other areas to have a look."
"It's too far to go to the deserted island, and I don't want you to go there again," the girl in black silk said.
"I have an idea," the beautiful CEO said.
"Tell me about it," Liu Xiaobei said.
"The girl in black silk has already told me about building a hospital. It's a good idea, but building a hospital is a very complicated thing. We need to apply for a lot of relevant documents, and we have to go through many layers of examinations. It's very complicated," the beautiful CEO said.
"So troublesome?" The girl in black silk asked in surprise. It seemed that these girls in black silk had never thought about it, and neither had Liu Xiaobei.
"Yes, medical treatment is related to human life. It's a very rigorous industry. Not everyone can get involved in it," the beautiful CEO said.
"Then forget it. I don't want to do it. I get a headache every time I hear it," the girl in black silk said.
"The idea I'm talking about doesn't need to build a hospital. It can also make money, and the number of Ice Worms needed is small," the beautiful CEO said.
"There's such a good thing?" The words of the beautiful CEO instantly made Liu Xiaobei interested.
"Yes, I'm planning to open a health club, a very high-end one. The customers are all rich people. When I was on the island, I actually noticed the miraculous medicinal soup brewed by the girl in black silk. It has a miraculous effect on all kinds of injuries and diseases. At that time, I thought that most people after middle age have some minor diseases. If they take this soup, will it be effective? Because of my heavy workload, my cervical vertebra has always been weak, so I drank a small amount of the soup. The effect is also miraculous. My usually sore neck is not sore at all, so Liu Xiaobei planned to use this soup in small amounts. We don't need to build a hospital, but a health club. The members who come to spend will drink health tea. As long as a little bit of this soup is added to the tea, it will definitely have the effect of curing illnesses and preventing illnesses. "
The beautiful CEO spoke with fervor and assurance. Liu Xiaobei and the girl in black silk listened and nodded. This was really a good idea.
Health tea? This idea sounded good.
"I think it's a good idea," Liu Xiaobei immediately said.
The girl in black silk also nodded without hesitation.
"As for the Ice Worms, we don't need to go to the Deserted Sea Realm for now. I'll rent a fishing boat and ask Lin Dong to bring some trustworthy people who know your secret to go with you to the distant sea area to search for them. We don't need a lot of Ice Worms. If we can find some, we'll be able to sustain ourselves for a long time," the beautiful CEO continued.
Liu Xiaobei and the girl in black lace nodded repeatedly. The beautiful CEO was indeed a businesswoman. Everything she did was logical and logical.
After the meal, the next step of the plan was basically confirmed. They would rest the next day, and the beautiful CEO would go and handle the matter of renting the fishing boat. The day after tomorrow, Liu Xiaobei would set off to search for the Ice Worm in the distant waters.
If he could successfully get his hands on some Ice Worms, then the health club would be put on the agenda …
