Chapter 1363 1346. Precious Oil (25)

Wild arctic shrimp, also known as cold-water shrimp and arctic sweet shrimp, are mainly produced in the Arctic Ocean and the North Atlantic Ocean. All of them are wild shrimp. The main fishing countries are Canada, Greenland, Denmark, Iceland and Norway.

This kind of shrimp grows in the icy seawater environment at a depth of 150 meters. It grows slowly. It takes 3 to 4 years to grow to the size required for commercial products, so the meat is very compact.

Arctic shrimp is located at the bottom of the food chain of marine animals and is the food source for the vast number of marine organisms in the North Atlantic Ocean. The daily diet of such giants as whales is also dominated by arctic shrimp.

Because they are extremely rich in amino acids and vitamin A necessary for human tissues, some production lines refine arctic shrimp to produce shrimp oil.

Arctic shrimp oil has many benefits to promote human health, including cardiovascular protection, reducing the accumulation of harmful oils in the blood, maintaining the nervous system, repairing bones and joints, protecting vision and skin care, etc., so it is expensive.

However, arctic shrimp itself still has up to 50% protein, which is wasted when used to extract shrimp oil. For manufacturers, in order to maximize profits, they cannot be used to extract shrimp oil.

The most popular shrimp oil on the market is krill oil. Krill is small and has little edible value. It has a large reserve in Antarctica, but shrimp oil in the Arctic is very rare.

Wang Bo was tempted after hearing the introduction, and quickly signaled the captain to find a way to trade.

The captain laughed and said: "My good man, Wang, you saw the splashing waves when the boat started. If we get close, the end will be the same as that of your bird. Let's take a step first and go to the pier to wait. with it."

They drove in front of the Atlantic Red Shrimp, and the captain called the fishing boat by radio, and then came out and said, "Okay, I've got in touch with you, and they can give you fifteen bottles of shrimp oil at most, 20,000 yuan per bottle, OK?"

Wang Bo made some calculations. A bottle of 20,000 yuan is about 200 New Zealand dollars. He asked, "How much shrimp oil is in a bottle?"

The captain smiled and said: "It's not the capacity, it's the granules. The capsules have been processed into granules on the ship, about a hundred or so."

Wang Bo thought about it, this is not enough.

Arctic shrimp oil is a good thing. Its ability to clean up hyperlipidemia and maintain joints is much higher than fish oil of similar health products.

He just checked with the onboard network, and it is generally believed that the health function of one arctic shrimp oil capsule is equivalent to the effect of 10 ordinary fish oils, especially for people with high blood fat and high cholesterol, the effect is better.

And because the structure of shrimp oil and fish oil is different, the absorption capacity of the human body is also different. Ten fish oil capsules cannot be absorbed at all, but one arctic shrimp oil capsule can be absorbed.

Therefore, from this aspect, the preciousness of arctic shrimp oil is even greater.

He thought for a while and said, "I need more, and I am willing to pay a higher price. Ask the people on board, if they are willing to sell, what is the highest price and how many bottles can they sell?"

The captain said: "I don't doubt your financial resources, Wang, but the customs has requirements on the quantity of shrimp oil, and what you do will be considered as commercial use."

Wang Bo smiled and said: "I have a very strong relationship, you can ask at ease."

The captain nodded and made another phone call, then came out and said, "The sailors on the ship have reserved a part. They wanted to give it to their friends. If you are willing to pay a high price, such as double the price, they can sell it to you."

"How many bottles?"

"A total of about fifty bottles."

Wang Bo said casually: "Okay, tell them I want all these, 40,000 yuan per bottle, right?"

"right."

They arrived at the port first, and then walked to the deep-water pier where the 10,000-ton giant ship was moored to wait for the Atlantic Red Shrimp.

There are many water birds on the seashore, and the white seagulls fly freely in the air, skimming against the sea surface from time to time, and then fly up with a small fish and shrimp in their mouths.

Xiao Meng was ready to move again.

Lao Wang gave it a brain collapse without hesitation, let it be quiet, this brat is definitely a fool.

Tourists and locals who came for a walk took advantage of the light and strolled along the seaside. Although the sea breeze was a bit strong, people didn't care. Those who should take pictures should still take pictures, and those who should have dinner are still having dinner.

There was still someone drawing a sketch in the seaside square, and when he saw Wang Bo, the man beckoned and said, "Sir, do you want a portrait of the whole family?"

Wang Bo said: "Sorry, I don't have that much time to wait."

The painter smiled and said, "No, you don't have to wait here all the time. You just need to let me take a photo, and I will draw on the photo. You can come back and take it after an hour."

In this way, Wang Bo did not refuse, so let's draw one.

A sketch costs 1,600 crowns. After taking a picture, Wang Bo gave the money, and the artist began to draw seriously.

At this time, the Atlantic Red Shrimp slowly drove into the port.

As the giant ship entered the port, many people surrounded it. Some of them were women with children. These were obviously the families of the sailors.

Some people were holding boxes, and the captain of the yacht told Lao Wang that these people also came to buy arctic shrimp oil.

According to the International Conservation Convention, the annual output of arctic shrimp caught in the Atlantic Ocean is about 100,000 tons, which has increased slightly in recent years, mainly in Norway, Finland, Iceland, the United States and Canada.

Therefore, pure shrimp oil is only produced in these countries.

However, there are many shops selling arctic shrimp oil in the market. These are all fake products, some are extracted from other types of shrimp, and some directly use fish oil, and sell fake products under the original label.

Among them, whether in Iceland or the United States, there are countless such fraudulent sales outlets. Obviously, there is a good place for counterfeit goods to survive on a global scale.

There are sailors on board who are responsible for distributing arctic shrimp oil to everyone. Only then did Wang Bo know that the shrimp oil was basically sold out before their trip.

When the boat went to sea, everyone was given a ticket according to the estimated quota. At this time, according to the ticket and money, they went to collect the shrimp oil in an orderly manner.

Previously, the captain of the yacht was able to win him fifteen bottles of shrimp oil, which was considered a great deal of face.

But money opens the way, omnipotent.

Wang Bo gave the money to a sailor through the captain, and the sailor took out a pile of shrimp oil in a plastic bag and handed it to him, saying, "Good luck."

Seeing him take away so much shrimp oil, many people were dissatisfied and shouted:

"Jackson, what's going on? Why does this foreigner have so much shrimp oil?"

"For God's sake, I'm your countryman."

"Schete, I only bought five bottles, that guy must have fifty bottles, right? It's disgusting."

The sailor said lazily: "Forty thousand yuan a bottle, that's what he paid for."

The noisy crowd suddenly became quieter, only some people muttered in dissatisfaction: "These foreigners are really rich."

Daddy Bo was with Wang Bo, and he laughed when he saw this scene, and said, "It's the same as when we used meat tickets and money to buy meat. So Icelanders also use oil tickets to buy shrimp oil?"
