On September 20, Lu Cheng came to the "Qiheng Leather Factory" in Quancheng.
He found the manager's office. The manager was a bald middle-aged man named "Li Mingxi."
Lu Cheng said: "I have three pieces of raw fur, and I would like to ask you to process them. Is that possible?"
Li Mingxi raised an eyebrow: "Only three? Too few. Our factory processes tens of thousands of furs every year. We have our own purchase and shipment channels, and we generally do not receive supplies from outside."
Lu Cheng said: "I am making a private order, so I can pay a high price."
Li Mingxi said: "The price of private customization is five times that of bulk goods. If you want to hire a master, the price may increase to 10 times. Are you willing to accept this price?"
Lu Cheng nodded: "The price is easy to say, but the key is quality."
"Okay, please take out the fur."
Lu Cheng placed two large bags on the ground.
Li Mingxi stood up from the chair, walked around the desk, opened the bag and took a look. He couldn't help being surprised: "Hey! Is this a tiger skin? There are two more wolf skins? And they are freshly peeled, less than a day old." !”
After Lu Cheng peeled off the tiger and wolf skins, he threw them directly into the jade ring. There was no concept of time in the jade ring, so it looked like freshly peeled skins.
Li Mingxi's face changed drastically, he gasped and said: "Sir, which zoo did you rob? You don't know that the Siberian tiger is a first-level protected animal and the wolf is a second-level protected animal? I think you should surrender yourself. .”
Lu Cheng took out a wolf skin, unfolded it, shook it, and said, "Director Li, have you ever seen such a big wolf skin? Tell me, which zoo's wolves can grow so big? Ordinary wolves, From nose to tail, that’s one and a half meters! And this wolf skin, not counting the tail, is three meters long!”
Li Mingxi was stunned: "It's not a wolf, what kind of animal is that?"
Lu Cheng didn't answer. He put the wolf skin into his bag and took out the tiger skin from another bag. He said, "This skin is too big. I can't hold it up by myself. Please help me hold it."
Li Mingxi stretched out his hand to pull on one side, and Lu Cheng pulled on the other side, forcing the tiger skin to straighten.
Lu Cheng said: "Look, this skin is almost six meters long and four meters wide. Do you think it is tiger skin? Can your tiger grow so big?"
"What is it if it's not tiger skin?"
"I don't know, Director Li. I promise I didn't rob the zoo or hunt wild tigers or wolves! I'm just asking if you can help me make fur?"
Li Mingxi frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Okay, three pieces of leather for 100,000 yuan!"
"Okay then, contact me when you're ready."
Li Mingxi issued him a receipt and recorded his name and contact information. After Lu Cheng left, he turned around and called the police.
Two police officers, a man and a woman, arrived quickly and invited wildlife protection experts from the Forestry Bureau.
When the expert saw these three rawhides, he was immediately stunned.
A policewoman asked: "Teacher Zhang, are these tiger skins and wolf skins?"
Expert Zhang Minsheng replied: "It must be tigers and wolves. This is correct."
"So, that man broke the law and we need to arrest him? He has his name and address, so it should be easy to find."
"I'm afraid not. According to the National Wildlife Protection Animal Law, there are regulations for each protected animal, such as jackal, raccoon dog, golden jackal, and gray wolf. Each subtype has a different body shape, territory, and living habits. Just Judging from these three skins, they belong to a species that has never appeared before. If you go and arrest the person, then this lawsuit will be fought!"
"You mean to say that since the country has not included this new type of wolf in the protected list, it cannot be said to be illegal, right?"
"That's what I mean. So don't rush to arrest people first. We need to take the fur back and have a meeting."
Research, learn the basics of the animal, where it grew up, and then make your decision. "
"Can't we just ask the person who sent the furs directly?"
At this time, the male police officer suddenly interrupted: "The man's name is 'Lu Cheng' and he lives in Qingquan Villa. If I guess correctly, he should be the Olympic champion Lu Cheng. He is a billionaire!"
The policewoman snorted coldly: "A rich man like this knows how to break laws and disciplines and be unkind for the sake of wealth!"
Expert Zhang Minsheng sighed: "Since he is a rich man, he cannot be arrested. Otherwise, he will hire a group of lawyers and ask you: What kind of tiger am I? What kind of wolf is it? Is it listed in the protection list? We will I was so stunned."
The policewoman said: "No matter what, it's always tiger skin, right?"
"It's true that the tiger skin is fake, but if the gene is sequenced, it will definitely be different from the Siberian tiger. It is so big, so it should have a genetic mutation. For example, a tiger and a cat look similar, but a tiger is a tiger. Cats are cats. What if the lawyer hired by Lu Cheng says that domestic cats are kittens, tigers are medium cats, and the cats he hunted were big cats of different breeds, what do you think?"
Factory director Li Mingxi asked: "Expert Zhang, are the tiger skins and wolf skins just confiscated? You have to provide evidence."
Zhang Minsheng said: "Tell Mr. Lu that our Forestry Bureau will borrow it temporarily and return it to him after the research is clear."
"Okay. It seems that I am too busy. But I have to remind you that if the fur is not treated, it will become rotten if it is not stored for long."
"It will be returned to you within half a month."
Soon, Lu Cheng received several phone calls, and some people came to the door in person, asking about the origins of tiger and wolf skins. .c0m
Lu Cheng had a headache. He had no choice but to point his finger to the sky: "It fell from the sky and I picked it up!"
No matter what the other party asks, it’s just this sentence!
The people from the Forestry Bureau couldn't do anything to him.
There was nothing the police could do, because since he had not committed any crime, they could not arrest him for questioning, nor could they give him a polygraph test.
Experts conducted various measurements on the fur and also conducted gene sequencing. Compared with the Siberian tiger, there are huge genetic differences, especially genes related to movement and bones. Some of the similarities are less than 95%, which is almost equivalent to different species! In other words, it is no longer a tiger!
For this reason, the three pieces of rawhide went around in a big circle and returned to the tannery. After a series of processes, they were soaked in water, washed, fleshed out, softened, and pickled to remove the oil film and dirt, disperse the collagen fibers in the skin, and then use Aluminum-oil tanned. After tanning, it needs to be washed, refueled, dried, regained moisture, softened, shoveled, degreased and trimmed to make soft fur.
This is not over yet, the fur needs to be renovated later, including dyeing, fading, whitening, shearing, etc., so that the fur color is bright, uniform and strong, the coat is loose and shiny, and the skin board is strong and non-greasy. .
The whole process was very complicated, and Lu Cheng couldn't do it alone, so he sent the fresh furs to the factory. He didn't expect to get himself into such a big trouble.
Lu Cheng was holding back his anger and thought to himself: "In the future, I will set up a fur factory by myself and tan the fur myself. Who will come to trouble me again?"
This business is not impossible, but he has to wait until his skills are higher, and it is best to become a spiritual witch, so that he can control the wind and rain in other worlds and collect animal skins from the Yi tribe. Otherwise, the people of the Peiyi tribe alone can hunt a limited number of wild animals, barely make ends meet, and do not have enough furs, so this business cannot be done.
Fortunately, after a lot of trouble, I got three soft furs. Whether they are hung on the wall to admire or spread on the jade bed to sleep on, I feel satisfied.
Especially when laid on a jade bed, fur has unexpected benefits.
Because the jade bed is rich in spiritual energy and has a hard texture, it will feel uncomfortable if it is not covered with quilts. If it is covered with cotton quilts, the spiritual energy will be partially isolated. However, tiger skin and wolf skin can access the spiritual energy without any obstruction, so they are excellent jade beds. Supplies on jade piers and jade seats.
Sometimes, Jiang Qiuyun spreads an outdoor camping blanket in the yard, and then lays a soft and huge tiger skin on the blanket. Several friends sit on the tiger skin and talk, not to mention how comfortable it is. _&
