I was amazed as I walked through the area where the health products are located.

Before Ye Yuan came to his senses, he heard Mu Qiang beside him say:

"I didn't expect that seafood can be played like this?"

"Yeah! I didn't expect seafood to be so fun."

After saying that, the two people looked at each other and laughed at the same time.

Continuing forward, the two people came to the rare creatures exhibition area.

Here, many unusual species in the ocean are displayed to tourists in the form of models or electronic displays.

It can be said that this is the purest place in the entire expo.

After all, all the display cabinets here are for the purpose of popularizing science and do not involve any commercial activities.

Originally, Ye Yuan was not interested in pursuing you.

After all, with his experience and knowledge, there are many strange creatures in the eyes of others.

He has seen it all with his own eyes.

But what he didn't expect was that in front of a booth not far away, he encountered a creature that shouldn't appear here at all.

No one is more familiar with this species than he is.

Because not long ago, he had dealt with this thing for a long time.

Yes, maybe someone has guessed it.

In this strange object area, Ye Yuan actually saw the birch beetle that had given him a headache not long ago.

However, the model of the beetle on the display cabinet was obviously much larger than what Ye Yuan had seen.

I don’t know if they are similar in appearance, or if the staff made them in a larger scale to make it easier for tourists to observe.

No matter which one it was, Ye Yuan could not let go of this opportunity.

After a few steps, I came to the display cabinet and looked at the black-shelled beetle that was as big as a sea bowl.

Through careful observation, Ye Yuan discovered that this creature was really different from the birch beetle.

It's just that they look similar.

The two beetles look very similar at first glance.

After taking a closer look, Ye Yuan discovered.

This unknown beetle has a particularly large mouth on its belly, which almost covers the entire area in the center of its abdomen.

The mouth of the horse birch beetle is located on the front part of its ventral surface.

Seeing Ye Yuan's interest in this model, a staff member came over and asked:

"Hello sir, how can I help you?"

Compared with other biological exhibition stands, this beetle is obviously difficult to attract others' attention.

This is also the reason why the staff here can take the initiative to greet Ye Yuan.

"What is this? Can you tell me?"

Seeing Ye Yuan pointing at the model and asking, the staff member smiled and replied:

"The Black-capped Giant Insect is a very magical marine insect.

It is a creature that lived 35 million years ago and is now extremely rare. "

The staff's words did not surprise Ye Yuan.

"So, is this model of yours restored to its original proportions, or has it been enlarged?"

Ye Yuan asked the doubts in his heart.

"Sir, I understand what you mean. Most people will have this doubt when seeing such a big marine insect.

But I can tell you responsibly.

Our model is a black-capped giant insect restored to its original size.

It is also the only original scale model in the expo. "

Speaking of this, the staff are quite proud.

Because there are creatures like some Dunkleosteus, Basilosaurus, Megalodon and other creatures.

Because the original size is huge, it really needs to be restored one to one.

The area it occupies is really not something that can be accommodated in a corner of a small stadium.

That's why he said this confidently.

Because there is only this kind of black-capped giant insect. Although it is called a giant insect, its size is still pitifully small compared to other creatures.

Mu Qiang, who had been following Ye Yuan all the time, was also shocked by this black bug.

Although he was not involved in the insect plague.

But don’t forget that he is not just a lover of insects.

He also saw the appearance of a birch beetle in the living room of Ye Yuan's house.

So when he saw this black insect model.

I was also shocked by the similarity between the two.

As a result, the staff now said it was a giant black-capped insect.

He habitually took out his mobile phone and wanted to check online.

Seeing Mu Qiang's actions, the staff smiled and shook their heads:

"Sir, you cannot collect information about this creature.

Because of this creature, almost no fossils have survived so far. "

"Then where did you get the model? Did you just imagine it out of thin air?"

Mu Qiang asked unconvinced.

The staff was not upset by Mu Qiang's tone of voice.

On the contrary, he still kept smiling and replied:

"This is our research institute. We once acquired the carapace of this creature in Iceland in the North Atlantic.

This name is also what the locals call him. "

Seeing that the two people were very interested in this kind of insect that no one usually cared about, the staff member simply told the two people everything he knew.

"According to research from our institute, this black-capped giant worm lives in the deep sea in cold waters.

It is the largest beetle-like creature among modern marine organisms.

According to some locals' descriptions, they have seen one-meter-long beetles.

But these are just rumors, and we have no evidence to prove it. "

Ye Yuan can now confirm that this beetle is similar to the birch beetle except in appearance.

In many other places the two are not the same.

However, Ye Yuan was still very interested in this kind of creature that he had never seen before.

"Is there anything special about this beetle?"

Ye Yuan didn't need to ask, Mu Qiang, a beetle enthusiast, was the first to ask.

Maybe it’s because not many people come to this showcase, so the staff are very talkative.

When Mu Qiang asked this question, the staff started to introduce it eloquently.

"Not only are they extremely rare, but they are also amazing creatures.

The life metabolism rate of black-capped giant worms is very low. They only need to be given a little food to maintain life on the seabed for a long time.

Their value lies in this carapace. "

With that said, the staff member took the model from Ye Yuan's hand, pointed to the shiny black carapace and continued:

"The amazing thing is that its carapace is not only very strong, but it also contains a substance.

This substance is similar to amino acids and is easily absorbed by living organisms.

Our researchers believe that the slow metabolism of the giant worm is due to the absorption of this substance in the carapace. "

Regarding the staff's introduction, Ye Yuan was noncommittal. After all, it was not a birch beetle, and he didn't know much about it, right?

But Ye Yuan felt it vaguely.

This creature is called a black-capped giant worm by staff.

and the horse birch beetle that previously appeared in the Blue Island Blue Hole.

There should be inextricably linked.

And this feeling is hard to explain.

"Sir, I see that you are very interested in the black-capped beetle.

Have you ever thought about investing in our institute?

Once the black-capped giant worm is commercialized by us, your investment will be returned countless times! "

The staff saw that Ye Yuan and the two were very interested in the model of the black-capped giant insect, and immediately promoted it.

"Huh? Are you here to solicit investment?"

Ye Yuan was stunned for a moment after hearing what the staff said, and then asked with some confusion.

"Yes, and no!

Here we exhibit the results of our institute.

It is a kind of publicity for our institute in itself.

Of course, if you are interested, you can also invest in our project. There is no upper limit for this kind of investment, and there is no lower limit. . . . . "

Through the introduction of this staff member, Ye Yuan finally figured it out.

It turns out that the so-called free display actually has so many benefits.

These research institutes around the world have presented their results of paleontology research here.

The purpose is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

The purpose of their coming here is to demonstrate their results and attract funds. This is their real purpose.

But that's what this staff member would never have imagined.

No matter how interested Ye Yuan was in this black-capped giant insect.

Nor will I invest a penny in their research institute.

That's what this guy was thinking.

My research institute is about to be established. Do I need to go to Iceland?

Capture some of these giant black-capped insects and bring them back to Yang Xiaohua for study.

According to this staff member, the carapace of this giant insect is a treasure.

If the first topic of your research institute can be an instant success, it is also a good choice.

Plus those health products made from seaweed that I have seen before.

Ye Yuan is more confident in the soon-to-be-built research institute.

The purpose of building such a research institute was very simple.

That is, I was in the deep sea, but I encountered many strange creatures.

The original intention of establishing the institute was to address these issues.

But Ye Yuan spent real money on the funds to establish the research institute.

We can’t let Ye Yuan keep spending money on future operating expenses, right?

Now, let’s find a new idea for the institute.

Although it will not fully commercialize the Yuwan Island Research Institute.

But occasionally we develop some commercial products.

The expenses to maintain the institute are still necessary.

Well, let's go back and discuss it with Professor Yang Xiaohua, if it's feasible.

Then I really want to go to Iceland.

Ye Yuan asked for the contact information of this research institute.

He said he would go back and think about it.

The staff were not surprised at all by this result.

After all, there are still only a few people who pay directly.

Even if most people are interested in the black-capped giant worm, they will give them an answer only after they go back and think about it.

Isn't the purpose of their coming here to get more people involved in the research and development of the black-capped giant worm?

As long as someone pays attention to them, for them, this exhibition will not be in vain.

Of course, it would be even better if you can get investment easily.

After all, no consortium will invest endlessly in a project.

As long as the control is in their hands, they really don't care that much about the research institute who invests.

Almost all research institutes that come here ultimately come with this purpose in mind.

It's just that their research results look more advanced and more attractive to investors coming here.

As for the Black Cap Giant Insect project, it is obviously not favored by others.

Now there is a potential customer like Ye Yuan.

It's also a good thing for this staff member.

He left the contact information of the institute, and the staff also thoughtfully gave Ye Yuan detailed information about the black-capped giant worm.

Only then did Ye Yuan leave the booth.

I walked around the expo again and felt like there was nothing interesting to see.

So Ye Yuan, accompanied by Mu Qiang, returned to the hotel where they were staying.

Ye Yuan returned to the room and casually opened the picture album given to him by the previous staff.

The more he looked at the black-capped beetle, the more Ye Yuan felt

It looks more like a horse birch beetle.

Except for the position of the mouth and the size of the body, the rest can be said that the two creatures are exactly the same.

Is this really a coincidence?

In order to prove this, Ye Yuan decided that the first topic of the Yuwan Research Institute would be the research and development of the birch beetle.

Some people may say, wasn’t the horse birch beetle eliminated?

Don't forget, Ye Yuan collected a lot of beetle carcasses before.

The most important thing is that there are tens of thousands of living bodies preserved in Ye Yuan's space.

Ye Yuan used space to breed these beetles in a corner of the sea.

At first, Ye Yuan thought that the beetles taken into the space were the same as those captured from the outside world.

After being captured, they will die immediately.

As a result, what Ye Yuan never expected was that the beetle could still live well after being captured into space.

It's just that these beetles seem to have entered dormancy, staying on the bottom of the sea without eating or drinking.

If it weren't for Ye Yuan's absolute control over space.

I really thought these guys were dead.

Let's go back and get some beetle carcasses and give them to Yang Xiaohua, so that he can study the carapace of those beetles.

See if it looks like this giant black-capped insect.

If two beetles have the same composition of material on their carapace.

That proves that these two creatures are the same species.

When this result is confirmed, I won’t even want to go to Iceland.

Ye Yuan also didn't expect that after participating in an expo, he would find himself a job at sea.

Rest in the hotel in the afternoon.

Ye Yuan took Mu Qiang back to the expo.

The reason why I came back is because there will be a bluefin tuna auction at the expo in the afternoon.

The company that organized this bluefin tuna auction is a company from the windmill country.

The Windmill Country is one of the countries in Europe that catches the most tuna.

Although Europeans are not keen on using tuna.

But because of its taste and nutritional content, Europeans are now slowly accepting tuna as a food.

Of course, the customers targeted by bluefin tuna are mainly in Asia.

When it comes to eating tuna, it is called true love in Japan.

Even Ye Yuan couldn't refute this.

After the two arrived at the auction, they saw many Japanese people.

What Ye Yuan didn't expect was that among these Japanese people, there was an acquaintance of his.

After seeing Ye Yuan, a middle-aged man's eyes flickered a few times, then he walked over and bowed:

"Ye Sang, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here!"

Fortunately, Ye Yuan has undergone brain development and taught himself several foreign languages.

Otherwise, the Japanese people who suddenly appeared and spoke Japanese language would not confuse Ye Yuan?

Ye Yuan had the impression that this person was the Japanese seafood merchant whom Wang Yueshan met when he took him to participate in the Japanese tuna auction.

What's your name?

It seems to be called Nohara Koji.
