In the end, the local tyrant couldn't hold back his curiosity and bought the bottle of sand at a high price.

Although he didn't have the large meteorite he wanted, this large bottle of sand was barely enough.

After the delivery meteorite hunter left, the local tyrant said to his subordinates:

"Let people pay attention to Feng Yi's movements. If he uses stones to test, pay close attention to the test results!"

Not only local rich buyers like them, but many people are paying attention to Feng Yi's movements.

The big buyers are waiting for the results of the appraisal over there, because they themselves will not take it to such an official organization for appraisal. If they send it to the appraisal and it is genuine, they have to keep the goods in their hands there.

And the sellers will not make such a head, they are afraid of being targeted by the authorities now, and it is absolutely impossible to send them to that kind of agency for testing.

Therefore, both buyers and sellers focused on Feng Yi. Of course they would be happy if someone came up with this idea.

Feng Yi's whereabouts were not concealed. When he arrived in Tuojia Town, Xiao Jia first drove Pan Weining and Wen Zhiyu to their residences. Afterwards, Feng Yi sent the newly found jar of small stones to the agency designated by the United Nations Insurance Bureau for appraisal.

There, Team Leader Yuan had sent someone to wait.

After checking the identity information, Feng Yi only needs to hand over the things to the other party, and the rest of the formalities will be handled by the people from the United Nations Insurance Bureau.

"When will the results come out?" Feng Yi asked.

"We can't be sure about this. If the ingredients are general, the identification result will be very fast. If there are any special ingredients or structures, then we are not sure how long it will take. However, the authenticity of the identification should come out soon, and I will send you a notification at that time." information," said the man.

Whether it is a real meteorite or not, the result will come out soon. However, the composition of the meteorite, whether it has scientific research value, and the time required for more detection data are uncertain.

Feng Yi nodded: "Okay, I'm sorry to bother you."

"You're welcome. Team leader Yuan said that if the identification is true this time, I will give you another credit."

Whether it's meritorious or not, Feng Yi doesn't pay much attention to this matter, he wants to know whether these stones have any abnormal structural components.

Return to the residence from the testing institution.

Pan Weining and Wen Zhiyu are setting the table for dinner, which they ordered from the hotel. After a tiring day outside, no one wants to do anything when they come back, but they want to reward themselves with something hearty, so they can only order food.

"Come back, when will the testing agency get the results?" Wen Zhiyu couldn't wait to ask.

"The authenticity of the identification will come out soon, and the composition data will not be confirmed for how long." Feng Yi said, "What about the sand you shoveled?"

Pan Weining said, "It's in the room."

They didn't pick stones from the sand as soon as they came back. They wanted to wait for Feng Yi's appraisal results before choosing how to treat the sand.

The sunset time in Tuojia Town is even later. When the sun completely disappears in the sky, the town that fell asleep in the past is still active today.

There are non-stop planes taking off and landing at the airport, and there are constant traffic and pedestrians in various hotels, hostels and homestays.

The small stalls placed on the street have turned on the lights and started the night market business model.

A seemingly ordinary tourist who just got off the plane and walked out of the airport observed between several booths.

After about half an hour, he came to one of the stalls and said to the vendor:

"I want all these [Star Wish Bottles]! Is there a discount from the boss?"

"It's easy to say!" The vendor was ecstatic, and started packing neatly. He didn't ask this guy why he bought so much, anyway, it's just such a thing, sellers like them just need to sell the goods, it's not a good thing to ask too clearly.

The tourist did not leave after receiving the goods, but leaned closer and lowered his voice and asked, "Is there any sand?"

The merchants understood as soon as they heard it.

This refers to the area where the bolide exploded and fell, the sand there.

There was no abnormality on the merchant's face, and he still entertained the customers warmly: "You bought a lot, this gadget is for you."

As he spoke, he handed over the gift naturally.

The tourist took the small gift, hesitated for a moment, and left.

He didn't open the gift on the street. He checked in at the hotel first, and opened the gift after entering the room.

except for one small

Things, and a card.

There is an address on it.

Ignoring the rest and putting down his luggage, he took this card and found a warehouse according to the address on it.

Knocked on the door.

After a while, a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard opened the door of the library a crack.

"Who are you?" the man inside asked.

"A tourist wants to ask if you have... interesting things here." While speaking, he passed the card in his hand.

The person inside took the card, looked at it, opened the warehouse door, and signaled him to go in.

There are a lot of goods stacked in the warehouse, the lights are dim, and it is hard to see what it is, but walking along the narrow passage to a corner, there is a brighter place, and the goods stacked there make people's eyes shine.

"Is this [Star Sand]?" the visitor asked.

[Star Sand] is the name given by the local meteorite hunters.

After all, the meteorite that fell from the bolide cannot be sold outside now. Even if the certificate cannot be issued, the sample may be detained if it is taken to the testing agency.

The appearance of [Star Sand] was completely inspired by Feng Yi.

If the samples handed over by Feng Yi are authentic, the price of Star Sand will soar rapidly.

Even if the identification is false, they will mix some meteorite debris into the sand. It's still the star sand, but it just can't be sold at a high price.

Anyway, they are not at a loss.

Based on their understanding of the market, some buyers may not necessarily like a bottle full of meteorites, with a little sand, and may even think it is more emotional.

There is also a large jar, a transparent glass jar filled with sand and stones, which are mixed with meteorite fragments, and buyers can manually pick out the meteorites from it. After selection, it can be sent for identification.

Playing is a kind of treasure digging fun.

Their team of meteorite hunters is now divided into two teams, one team is responsible for selling outside, and the other team is digging sand outside.

They never underestimate the businessman's sense of smell, look, this is another one coming here with a smell!

The "tourist" stepped forward with eager eyes: "Is it dug out of the core area?"

"Of course! They were all dug up during the day today!"

"What price? I'll buy in bulk!"

"Everyone who comes here buys in bulk, we don't just sell." The warehouseman reported the number.

This is a little higher than the price of star wish bottles on the market.

"Tourists" are hesitant about the price.

The people in the warehouse urged: "Hurry up and make a decision. Those like you who find it by yourself don't have many choices. There are not many locals who are willing to sell it to unfamiliar customers. If you don't believe me, you can go out and find it, and see if they sell it to you. "

The meteorite hunters who have lived in Tuoga Town for many years have their own sales channels and partners, and they will not easily trade with other vendors.

The few of them who are willing to sell just want to make some money as soon as possible, and they are not willing to take risks.

Who knows what Feng Yi's appraisal result will be like, if the appraisal is false, the price of the sand they are hoarding will plummet.

Although it's not a big loss, I would certainly prefer to exchange these sands for more money!

The "tourists" also have their own concerns. A small businessman like him is taking risks, with a gambler mentality.

However, even if you lose the bet, you can't lose too much money. Anyway, these star wish bottles filled with sand can be sold by making up some stories. Now the topic is hot, and many people are willing to buy it.

After thinking about it, the "tourist" still bought a batch.

After the "tourist" left, the warehouse door was closed, leaving only his own people.

Finally, a young man couldn't hold back anymore, counting the money and laughing out loud: "Hahaha, this time we've made a lot of money! If we have money, we'll earn it!"

Another older one glanced at him: "You know what a fart!"

Looking at the empty shelves, the elders looked deeply:

"If the stones that Feng Yi handed in this time are identified as real, they are definitely the fragments of the bolide last night...I can confess to Feng Yi!"

When he said confession, he was literally confessing.

The kind that puts statues of gods, sets incense tables, and serves altars!

People like them believe

strength, but also believe in luck.

Luck is a mysterious thing.

It doesn't matter if they are gods or not, they are very realistic, and they will make money for whoever makes them rich!

The official testing agency of Tuoga Town.

After people from the UNbao and the Security Bureau came over this morning, they set up a team to test samples related to the bolide incident.

The building is very busy today.

While the agency employees went to eat, the newly formed group was still going on.

In the staff canteen.

"Oh, I'm exhausted. Many tourists brought things here for testing today!"

"Me too. Tourists go to the Gobi Desert to pick up stones, especially the beautiful stones with a bit of gem light, and they all take them for identification. Is it necessary?!"

"If you want me to say, the group of meteorite hunters are still smart. They don't test the things they find, for fear that they will not keep them if they have scientific research value."

"Is there any progress with the newly formed group? Who knows?"

"The people from the United Nations Security Bureau and the Ministry of Security are in charge over there. We are not allowed to get close. How can we know the news over there."

"However, I heard from the person at the gate that today Feng Yi took the stone he found for testing."

"Which Fengyi? The one who is very popular on the Internet? Is he in our town?"

"Hey wait! The latest news is that the special investigation team of the Federal Insurance Bureau has returned. I don't know if they have made any new discoveries."

A certain floor of the testing agency is also where the newly established appraisal team is located.

Team Leader Yuan and his team have returned from their trip, and the samples collected in different places outside today have been delivered in batches.

Team leader Yuan and another person in charge of the security department came purposefully to the testing room where the identification team was located.

Before arriving, they received an initial identification report.

It was the sample sent by Feng Yi.

After identification, part of the jar of small stones that Feng Yi sent over was indeed a meteorite, and it was very likely that it was the fragments that fell from the burst of the bolide yesterday!

"How is it?" Team leader Yuan looked at the screen of an instrument.

The inspector next to him came over and handed over an electronic version of the data.

"According to the detected data and compared with the collected samples, what Feng Yi found is indeed the most likely leftover from yesterday's bolide.

"You know, we have found some peculiar crystal structures in the fragments that fell from bolides bursting in the air before. This is not the first time we have discovered them. It is also in the samples received today, which is another unique crystal structure." crystal structure."

Group Leader Yuan did know the crystal structure the other party mentioned. Several large companies related to new materials and new energy at home and abroad have been studying this kind of peculiar crystal structure.

The inspector called up another page: "This is the strange nano-cluster core we found in this crystal."

Team leader Yuan looked at these pictures carefully and asked: "Is this kind of thing already in the celestial body, or was it formed when it exploded during the falling process?"

The inspector said: "We are inclined to the latter. The conditions for the formation of this crystal structure are very harsh and may require a huge energy exchange in a very short time.

"According to the various data obtained by our detection, after comparison, we found that this fireball may belong to the same parent body as another fireball we discovered more than ten years ago. However, the special crystal structure in them is not the same. Same. We can use this crystal structure to resolve samples."

After a pause, the inspector said again: "As I said just now, it has a unique crystal structure. We speculate that there was a huge energy exchange on that bolide, and the high-intensity burst that occurred may not be found. When it comes to large meteorites, you must be mentally prepared when you go out to take samples."

Team Leader Yuan nodded: "That is to say, it is very likely that only fine particles or even finer particles of dust will fall?"

"That's right."

"Continue to analyze."

"Yes, the work is already in progress, we will compare more samples, and follow-up measurements will continue."

The person in charge of the security department listened and said, "It's really the first sample that Feng Yi brought."

Team Leader Yuan smiled, and then looked at the other person behind him.

Human: "When Feng Yi brought these samples over, did he say anything else?"

The man said: "He said, he said that after the test here, he would like to apply to keep a part of it for collection."

Experts within the Federal Insurance Agency can indeed make such an application. If the sample size is large enough, they can apply to keep a part of it for themselves. It is legally reserved and can be collected, but it cannot be traded.

It's just that the follow-up inspection is still in progress, and there are many things that need to be discussed before they can be decided. Team leader Yuan and the people from the security department can't approve it immediately.

Team leader Yuan glanced at the positions where various samples were placed beside them. These belonged to unimportant categories after identification.

On one of the boxes, Feng Yi's name was written on the label.

"Where is it?" Team Leader Yuan asked.

"Oh, it was sifted out of the samples sent by Feng Yi. Nearly half of the non-meteorite particles were sifted out of a can."

"So many are not meteorites?" Team Leader Yuan was surprised.

"It's normal. After all, there is no tool for accurate identification. Only by subjective judgment, half of the samples brought back are real. This is not easy!"

Team leader Yuan looked at the small non-meteorite particles that were screened out, and said nothing.

I don't believe it or not.

In fact, this was indeed deliberately mixed in by Feng Yi.

Feng Yi knew very well in his heart that if all he sent over were meteorite particles, normally speaking, the accuracy should not be so high.

Therefore, in order to reduce the accuracy, Feng Yi mixed in some non-meteorite particles that looked similar.

At this time, Feng Yi was in the room, feeling a little uneasy.

I don't know how many things were detected by the testing agency.

He also wanted to know if using energy matter to detonate the fireball would change the structure of the meteorite.

Thinking about these things in my head, I was cleaning the glass bottle in my hand.

Of the glass bottles he bought today, he chose two types without patterns.

One is slightly smaller, about the size of an adult's thumb including the cork. This small glass bottle, Feng Yi, intends to hold those meteorite particles, and it can be filled after the application for submission is approved.

The other is palm-sized and in the shape of a five-pointed star, which is used to store the dug sand.

Before the last glass bottle was cleaned, Feng Yi received a message.

It was sent by Team Leader Yuan, telling him that some of the samples sent over were identified as genuine, and after data analysis, it was very likely that they were debris from the bolide. Follow-up testing is still in progress.

This result was expected by Feng Yi, but the information he wanted to know was not received.

But seeing these, Feng Yi understands that the United Nations Security Bureau and the Ministry of Security will soon release the latest news on the bolide incident.

Now that some of the test results are out, they can be released to the public first.

Just as Feng Yi thought, half an hour later, the notice was released.

The influence of this matter is too great, and it has attracted a lot of attention both at home and abroad. After a multi-department meeting to discuss, the announcement was issued.

The specific test data has not been made public, and only the meteorite that fell from the bolide was mentioned to the outside world. After identification, the content of metals such as iron and nickel is not high. Therefore, the iron meteorites sold on the market are not the bolide fragments that everyone pays attention to. And, this meteorite has great scientific research value!

The experienced meteorite hunters were not frightened by this announcement. On the contrary, they were very excited. The issue of meteorites has always been controversial, and there are many loopholes that can be exploited.

Can't open the certificate? Then it can’t be opened, let’s not!

We don't sell meteorites directly, we sell sand!

We sell star sand!

Hahaha!

They have their own news channels.

Even if you can't get detailed and accurate data information, you can still know the approximate ones.

For example, the classification of meteorites related to the bolide.

For example, who sent the first authentic sample for identification~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Another example, the sampling area of ​​the sample...

Vendors in Tuojia Town gathered together to discuss the pricing of various goods tomorrow.

The price of empty glass bottles will definitely increase, and the price of star wish bottles will also increase.

The price of Star Sand has soared!

Vendors who have sold a large number of empty glass bottles are now regretting that they are selling too low!

At the same time, on the shopping platform, several merchants put on the shelves overnight the Star Sand and Star Wish Bottle from Tuojia Town, and the sales were quite hot!

As soon as the link was posted, it was sold out in less than half an hour!

In Tuoga Town in the dark night, off-road vehicles drove towards the desert one after another. No way, I have to replenish it!

The old meteorite hunters in Tuoga Town:

"Quick! Set up the case and offer the offerings! Give me Feng Yi!"
