Chapter 623 Counting the Gifts
Ye Yuan never thought that Nibel would give him such a big surprise.

The hardness and density of mammoth ivory itself is better than that of Asian and African ivory.

Compared with the latter two, it is more suitable for making various handicrafts.

Because of these two reasons and characteristics, the price of fine mammoth ivory is already higher than that of modern ivory.

It is even more difficult to buy with money.

Because of the exquisite, gorgeous, durable and precious ivory carvings, it has the reputation of "organic gems"!

Mammoth ivory is the best raw material for ivory carving.

So for Ye Yuan who is already a master sculptor.

I have always wanted to have my own tooth carving work.

But the raw materials for ivory carving are too difficult to get.

So this wish has never been fulfilled.

It's all right now, with such a large pair of mammoth tusks sent by Nibel, Ye Yuan's wish will soon come true.

The reason why mammoth ivory is so valued by Ye Yuan is also related to its rarity.

We all know that mammoth ivory is the remains of prehistoric animals.

Most of the ivory found was either calcified or decayed, making it unfit for carving.

The finished product rate that can be used for carving is only a pitiful 20%, and the ivory in good condition is even rarer, which is especially precious!
This is also the reason why Ye Yuan came to check this pair of ivory for the first time.

Ye Yuan looked at the complete mammoth tusk, his appearance showed a "C" shape, and the whole tusk was only bent once.

The ivory is grayish brown, and Ye Yuan knows that this is caused by being buried in the ground for a long time and being eroded by the mineral components in the soil.

But when this layer of skin is broken, the "tooth material" part of the ivory should be mainly milky white and milky yellow, without gray tone.

After playing with it for a while, the water is full of mammoth ivory.

Ye Yuan temporarily gave up looking at this pair of ivory, and turned to open a larger wooden box.

This wooden box is filled with mink coats of various styles.

In Maoxiong Country, mink fur coats are very popular.

Someone once said, "In Mao Xiong, you can have nothing to eat, but you can't live without minks!"

Ye Yuan also couldn't decide whether this sentence was true or not, but Mao Xiong people were very keen on mink fur clothing.

Therefore, the price of mink fur in Maoxiong Country is also very expensive.

Not only in Maoxiong, but also in the northeast of China, mink fur clothing is also a symbol of rich people.

Ye Yuan looked at the four coats made of sable fur in the box, even Ye Yuan couldn't put it down.

Many people think that sable fur is purple, which is a big mistake.

Sables are actually brown. The reason why they are called sables is because the light reflected from the tips of their hairs in the sun gives people the illusion of a slight "purple" color.

Because sables are very expensive and rare, 90% of those furs in the mall who say their fur is sable fur are fake.

The kind of mink fur that is sold all over the street is made of North American mink, which is often called mink fur.

Because mink has a naturally white variety, it can be dyed any color you want.

There are also many unscrupulous merchants who use miscellaneous furs to pretend to be sables and sell them.

The real sable has thick but light fur.

Although the hair is long, it does not like to shed. Although there are guard hairs, it is extremely soft. The skin is soft and thin but strong.

The ones that are heavy, hair-shedding, rough to the touch, and hard and brittle are all fakes.

Ye Yuan knows that even in Maoxiong Country, a place where sables are produced.

The price of a piece of sable fur is also very expensive.

Let's put it this way, in Maoxiong Country, the price of a piece of sable fur can reach more than 1 euros, and it takes dozens of mink fur to make a coat.

It is conceivable that the few coats placed in front of Ye Yuan are all made of sable fur, how cherished they are.

Most importantly, this is not something you can buy with money.

It is very difficult to buy the real thing.

It is very possible that if you are not careful, what you buy is a fake sable made of mink fur.

Seeing these clothes, the first thing Ye Yuan thought of was his parents and elder sister. Fortunately, the styles of the clothes sent by Nibel happened to be 2 men and 2 women.

In this way, the problem of coats for the four members of Ye Yuan's family was solved.

Putting down his clothes, Ye Yuan opened several wooden boxes one after another, and the things inside were more complicated.

Most of them are fur and it is the kind of complete fur, including wolf fur and arctic fox fur.

Regarding these, Ye Yuan was really speechless.

You send a few mink coats, Ye Yuan can still accept it, but what the hell is sending so many furs?

Ye Yuan suddenly remembered that he had promised Ma Hua yesterday that he would bring some small gifts to the crew, and it happened that these wolf skins were given to the crew as gifts.

This solves the embarrassing situation where so many wolf skins have nowhere to go.

Ye Yuan shook his head and smiled wryly, he was actually thinking about how to deal with things that others couldn't even get.

Now that he has thought of a solution, Ye Yuan no longer has to worry about so many furs.

And he himself continued to look at the next 'little gift'.

What Ye Yuan didn't know was that in Kamchatka, people could breed sables and arctic foxes everywhere.

So many people in the local area will make some gifts with that fur and give them to some better friends.

Next, Ye Yuan had another headache.

Look at the dozen or so wall hangings made of reindeer heads big and small.

Ye Yuan was also speechless for a while.

It's a novelty for Nima to give one. Nibel people give so many, how can Ye Yuan deal with it?

But Ye Yuan is not worried either.

There are so many villas on his island, at worst, there is one in each villa, he really doesn't believe it, and there are things he can't handle.

In the end, Ye Yuan found the thing he most wanted to see besides the mammoth ivory in the innermost wooden box.

A beautifully crafted white tiger skin.

The white tiger has many stories in the legends of Huaguo.

But as modern people, we all know the reason why there are white tigers.

That's because tigers suffer from albinism.

So this also shows that the number of white tigers is very rare.

For this tiger skin, Ye Yuan still likes it very much.

He also has a tiger skin that he got from a Bali tiger before.

But because the size of the Bali tiger is too small, and the tiger skin is really not flattering.

After finding this tiger skin, Ye Yuan's goal this time has been achieved, only two boxes were left unopened in the end.

Ye Yuan simply opened both boxes at once.

One of them is filled with tiger bones, this is what Ye Yuan specially instructed after knowing that Nibel can get this kind of thing.

After all, my own tiger bone wine still needs a lot of tiger bones as raw materials.

Put these tiger bones into the space, and arrange the robots inside to continue brewing another batch of tiger bone wine according to the wine recipe obtained before.
