NovelOnlineChapter 2162 Gold Mine and Silver Snow Sturgeon
The Endless Sea, also known as the Dead Sea, derived its nfrom the ever-present fog and the magnetic
disturbances that rendered compasses useless. No one dared to enter its waters, opting for a longer route to
avoid the potential sudden expansion of fog.
This treacherous place had once beckoned countless adventurers. Alas, as each group ventured in and vanished
without ever being found, the place becwidely acknowledged as a forbidden death zone. Therefore, when
Martin mentioned this area, it elicited intense reactions from the crowd. It was almost taboo to speak of it among
those who frequently sailed the sea, as it was believed to bring ill fortune. "Please remain calm, everyone. While
I may not possess exceptional intelligence, | assure you, I'm not foolish. Do you really think that I'd lead you all
into a certain doom?" Martin posed the question rhetorically, trying to ease the crowd's anxiety.
He clapped again, and his subordinates brought forward a large box standing half a meter tall. The entire hall fell
into a hushed silence the moment the box was opened. Excitement surged through those who were present as
their eyes gleamed with anticipation.

"Could it be... the Dog Head Gold?"
"How is it possible? The Dog Head Gold is never this enormous!"
"Is it genuine or a counterfeit?"
A mixture of astonishment and disbelief spread through the guests as they witnessed the immense size of the
Dog Head Gold-they had never encountered this before.
The Dog Head Gold, also referred to as Horseshoe Gold due to its distinctive horseshoe-like shape, was formed
as a result of the nearby gold deposits. The size of the gold often correlated with the size of its gold mine. The
Horseshoe Gold before them resembled a bull's head, which was a clear indication of an exceptionally vast gold
deposit.
The crowd fell into a profound silence as their minds were filled with thoughts about the scale of the gold mine.
The only audible sound was the collective heavy breathing. This was precisely the effect Martin had intended.
He then proceeded to provide an explanation without waiting for any questions from the guests, "By a fortunate
stroke of luck, my transport team stumbled upon this area. | now refer to this island and its surrounding waters
as Sky Island and Cold Trench Ocean respectively. The Horseshoe Gold was discovered on Sky Island. As for the
Cold Trench Ocean, not only does it possess remarkably pure water of an incomprehensible quality, but its
underwater resources are also astonishingly abundant."
As Martin spoke, one of his subordinates brought in a silver-colored fish measuring nearly four meters in length.
"Wait, is that a Silver Snow Sturgeon?" one of the guests exclaimed in astonishment.
"How is it possible? This is by far the largest Sturgeon | have ever seen!"
"Until now, the largest known Silver Snow Sturgeon was only two and a half meters long, but this one has to be
close to four meters."
The majority, if not all, of the guests were involved in the seafood industry, having been born in an archipelago
nation. Their familiarity with precious marine species was their second nature, and the Silver Snow Sturgeon was
considered a rare culinary gem. A Silver Snow Sturgeon over one meter in length would fetch no less than 150

ingredient, commanding a price several times higher than gold.
In the past, a two-and-a-half-meter Silver Snow Sturgeon fetched an auction price exceeding 9 million. Therefore,
the Silver Snow Sturgeon presented by Martin would undoubtedly command a significantly higher price. Martin
was observing the amazed expressions on the faces of the crowd from the stage and smiled contentedly. This
was precisely the reaction he had hoped for.
"The Sturgeon has been frozen for a week. While it may not be as fresh as the newly caught ones, | would like to
invite you all to indulge in a feast," Martin announced.
There was shesitation among the guests, and a representative from the Baeddan Family quickly intervened,
"Martin, it would be a shto conssuch a precious specimen."
"No need to worry. This species is not considered rare in the waters of the Cold Trench Ocean. | still have several
more in the refrigerated hold of my ship. Please, enjoy the fish," Martin reassured them.
Martin signaled one of his top-tier chefs to begin preparing the extraordinary Sturgeon with a wave of his hand.
Half an hour later, plates of fresh Silver Snow Sturgeon sashimi and a large dish brimming with roe were placed
before the eager and salivating crowd.
