"What is this?" he asked looking through the ID.

Hans didn't answer, and first said, "Be careful, don't break it!"

Li Du said: "This card is very hard. What exactly is it? Is it very valuable?"

Hans told him a few more words before saying complacently: "Yes, this thing is very valuable. We are so lucky that we found a black gold abalone fishing certificate."

"Black Golden Abalone Fishing Certificate?" Li Du looked through the card and understood what the shellfish pattern on it was. It turned out that this was a black golden abalone.

Black gold abalone is a black abalone, which is a very rare marine life. It has been passed down from ancient times to the present and is called living fossils by biologists.

This black abalone is a specialty in Australia and is produced only in Australia and New Zealand. Their meat and shells are highly sought after in the world. The indigenous Maori people in New Zealand call it black gold, so it has the beautiful name "black gold abalone".

Since ancient times, Chinese people have had a different passion for sea cucumbers and abalone. In fact, abalone is distributed in many sea areas around the world. Because of the difficulty of fishing and difficulty in cooking, abalone was very cheap in many places before the export of East Asian food culture.

For example, in the American waters where the United States is located, there are many rare abalone here, but Americans don’t know how to eat it and don’t like it.

Later, as East Asian countries, especially China, strengthened their national strength and economic capabilities, East Asians' love for abalone began to affect the world, driving the price of this kind of seawater product to rise.

Black gold abalone is an exception. The price of this kind of abalone has been particularly expensive since ancient times because Black gold abalone plays a very important role in the indigenous Maori culture and beliefs of New Zealand, and is believed by Maori people to have the magical power to ward off evil spirits and protect races.

Therefore, black gold abalone is a very common element in Maori mythology, and black gold abalone can be seen everywhere in Maori sculptures.

Looking through the black gold abalone fishing certificate, Li Du asked: "Can you only have this certificate to catch abalone? Why haven't I heard that the United States has this law?"

Hans said proudly: "You haven't heard that it's normal. This document is not used in the United States, but in Australia, Australia and New Zealand."

He introduced the preciousness of this document to Li Du. Because wild abalone resources are extremely limited, in order to maintain sustainable fishery development, many Australian governments have set a series of strict restrictions on black gold abalone in fishing quotas and fishing operations.

Unlike other regions, artificial diving fishing is the only legal way to harvest black gold abalone in Australia, and the law stipulates that any artificial oxygen equipment is prohibited when diving.

During the limited time underwater, divers must also choose abalone with a diameter of more than 12.5 cm to catch, which is extremely difficult to work.

In other words, if you want to fish for black gold abalone in Australia, you cannot bring oxygen cylinders. You can only rely on your own diving ability, and you cannot use machines to catch this precious seafood.

Hearing this, Li Du nodded suddenly: "Oh, this is the same as the provisions of the Fossil Forest National Park to find fire opals. In order to protect resources, it can only be obtained manually, and the use of machines is strictly prohibited."

Hans shook his head: "It is even more difficult to catch black gold abalone. There are at most a few wild wolves and some snakes and insects in the national park. The Australian waters are different, and there are all kinds of wild marine animals living in it all year round."

"Their existence makes many Australian seas full of dangers, so fishing for black gold abalone is a very dangerous profession in Australia."

Li Du said: "In this case, is this document still valuable?"

Hans said for granted: "Absolutely, it's more dangerous to go to Alaska waters to catch king crabs every year, but you see, when it comes to the king crab fishing season, aren't there still fishermen rushing in groups?"

The preciousness of this black gold abalone fishing certificate lies in that in order to protect wild abalone, the Australian government not only formulated a catch restriction policy, but stipulated that there must be a fishing certificate to catch it, but it also stopped issuing such certificates more than 20 years ago.

In other words, this black gold abalone fishing certificate is a limited edition and will only decrease in the future and will never increase.

Hans told Li Du: "The Black Gold Abalone Fishing Certificate is a heirloom for many Australian families. At other times when they go into the sea to fish, they will deposit the fishing certificate in a bank safe."

Li Du said in surprise: "Is it so precious?"

Hans sneered and said, "Do you know what a piece of this thing is in the market?"

Li Du shook his head, Hans raised five fingers with his right hand, so he asked, "Fifty thousand yuan?"

Hans said angrily: "Five million, Australian dollars!"

Li Du was shocked: "What are you kidding? This thing is worth five million? Five million Australian dollars? Almost four million dollars?"

Hans said confidently: "Don't question me, I just checked it online. In fact, the fishing certificate is priceless in Australia, and no one is willing to transfer their fishing certificate."

This is easy to understand. The output of black gold abalone is declining year by year, and there has been no large-scale wars in the world. Although the world economy has been sluggish in recent years, it still has an overall upward momentum.

When people have money, they have to enjoy it. In life, they are nothing more than eating, drinking, defecation and urination. The prices of black gold abalones have increased year by year. They are sold regardless of pounds, but only for sale. The lowest price of one is 100 US dollars, and the price is immeasurable.

Four million dollars seems to be a lot, but for Australian black gold abalone fishermen, they can get at least 400,000 and 500,000 dollars a year.

In this way, investing in buying a black gold abalone fishing certificate will recover the cost for at most ten years, and it will be a net profit in the future and can be passed on to future generations.

For example, having a black gold abalone fishing certificate in Australia is really equivalent to having a treasure pot.

I don't know where Vixter found this black gold abalone fishing certificate. He preserved it well and was cheaper to Li Du and Hans.

Australia's black gold abalone fishing certificate is unknown, and whoever gets it can use it, which is also one of the reasons why the price of fishing certificates remains high.

Li Du looked through the ID and laughed: "Good luck, it's really good luck. If we sell it, can we become members of the quasi-million club?"

Hans nodded like a rice-pecker: "Of course, of course, we can certainly become members of the quasi-million club. We can get millions each one of us right away, which is amazing!"

With this gain, the two were very happy. After tidying up the remaining old goods, they returned to Flagpole City the next day.

Godzilla and Dao unloaded the truck, and Li Du asked Hans: "Hi, man, how are you going to sell this fishing license? Can it be sold in the United States?"

Hans looked at him hesitantly and asked, "Do you really want to sell it?"

Li Du said: "What is true or false? Do we collect it like Mr. Vickers?"

Hans licked his lips and said, "No, why don't we use it to make money?"
