283. Star pattern wallet (monthly pass +34)

Hans asked, “Which wallet?”

Li Du said: "Let Akalo tell you, you don't know? This wallet is very famous. I saw it, so I must take a picture of this warehouse."

The playboy who was watching the snakeskin wallet was shocked when he heard his words and asked, "Did you see this wallet? Did you see it? Where is it?"

Li Du pointed to the cabinet and said, "It's in this cabinet. The cabinet door was half open at that time. If you shine it in with a flashlight, you can see the first half of the wallet."

The playboy was stunned: "Do it, damn it, you really do? Why don't I remember it?"

Hans said: "Lee's insight is really very sharp, man, we make money by this."

Li Du shrugged and said, "Don't be curious, this is a talent. Since I was a child, my observation ability has been better than others."

The playboy was still a little unbelievable. Li Du called out a flashlight and shone it into the warehouse, pointing to a piece of clothing in the corner and said, "There is a small stool under the clothes, with painted Bavarian lines on it."

After hearing his words, the playboy walked into the corner of the warehouse and saw that, sure enough, his clothes were half-covered with a small round stool, and there were some painted lines on the edge of the stool.

But he could not see anything from the outside, and he could only see the edge of the stool exposed when he was close.

After coming out, he was almost promiscuous to Li Du: "God, you are so powerful. I must give you a thumbs up. You are so powerful!"

Hans smiled and said, "Of course, Li is actually a rain man, a rain man in the observation world!"

The playboy pointed at him and said, "Hey, what you said is wrong. Li is not Yuren. He is a normal super observer, like a superhero like Hawkeye!"

Rain Man is an Oscar-best film starring Dustin Hoffman. The origin of this name is that the protagonist Lehman is unable to pronounce the word clearly and always calls himself "Rain-MAN" and writes it in English as "RAIN-MAN". It is translated literally and becomes "Rain Man".

Later, "Rain Man" became a special noun with special significance, specifically referring to a person who has a certain special talent but cannot take care of himself in daily life, that is, an idiot genius.

Hans spread his hands and said, "Don't be like this guy. It's boring to stutter. Do you understand what I mean. Is this wallet valuable?"

Li Du smiled happily and said, "It's finally my turn to teach you. This wallet is indeed valuable and it is also very famous. If you read "National Geography".

"More valuable? Li, you are so modest." The playboy looked at the wallet over and over again, found a shield-shaped logo inside and reached out to touch it.

Hans said: "Damn it, you can't speak like this. Don't tease me, hurry up, hurry up, tell me its value and its identity."

"If this thing is brand new, the price should be about 400,000." Li Du said with a smile.

Hans was shocked and shouted, "Impossible, can the wallet be so expensive? If it is so expensive, why don't I know it?"

Playboy said: "What Li said is true. This is a product of the leather goods factory under National Geographic. If I remember correctly, it is a limited edition item, and only sixteen of them were produced in total."

"Yes, sixteen, because only twelve of the fifty-two cubs from the reticular python survived, of which only half of the forty dead snakes were suitable for wallets. Some of them were damaged during the production process, and finally sixteen wallets were produced." Li Du nodded.

Hans asked in surprise: "How did you know? I didn't know!"

Li Du said: "Because you don't read books, I remember one time we got a batch of National Geographic magazines at an auction, and then I bought them. Why do you think I bought them? Put them on the shelf like you?"

Hans shook his head and said, "Oh no, I need to read, I need to learn!"

The playboy sighed: "Knowledge is wealth, man, you taught us a vivid lesson! The warehouse I bought for 165,000 yuan was not as valuable as half the value of this wallet."

Hans asked, "This wallet is so expensive? Why is it so expensive?"

The playboy said: "Yes, because this thing is a limited edition good thing. Look at this snake head, this is not an ordinary snake guy, this is a reticular python."

"I know that the reticular python, nicknamed the Overlord python, is the longest python in the world, can easily grow to ten meters long. Once it grows to ten meters, they will even eat the owner as food."

The playboy nodded and said, "That's right, that's it. One time in National Geographic filming, a reticular python was found, but it died and laid fifty-two snake eggs before it died."

"After manual efforts, most of these snake eggs hatched, but they kept dying during their growth, and the dead were made into this thing."

"You must know that reticular pythons are endangered big guys. Their young snakes are very precious things. This wallet is made of the whole body of the young snake and then keep the snake's head."

"So, there is no need to be surprised that it can sell at a high price. In addition, looking at its eyes, these are rubies, two pure rubies, these two gems alone are worth 100,000!"

After the introduction, the playboy played with his wallet and added: "Anyway, this guy Li has a great vision. He was born to do this job!"

Hans said happily: "Of course, of course, I mean, we can make a lot of money this time, brothers!"

In fact, the Playboy did not accurately explain the reason why this wallet is so expensive. National Geographic generally does not interfere with the survival of wild animals. The reason they artificially hatch these small pythons is because the dead mother python has rare star patterns.

You should know that the back of the reticular python is generally gray-brown or yellow-brown, with diamond-shaped black-brown and yellow or light gray mesh-shaped pattern, which is why they are named.

The dead mother python has more complicated and mysterious star patterns on its back. The magazine staff believe that it may have inherited these patterns.

Later, after hatching the little python, the patterns on the back of the little python were also exquisite star patterns.

The name of this kind of wallet is not called python wallet or mesh wallet, but star pattern wallet, a good name.

After sixteen wallets were formulated, six were given to patrons who made special contributions to National Geographic magazine, and the remaining ten were given to Paris Fashion Week for sale, and the money earned was used to provide the reticle python protection organization.

Among them, the price of those ten wallets was a terrifying $400,000 US dollars. What's even more terrifying is that the ten wallets were sold out on the day they were released.
