I Can Extract Abilities From Antiques

83. One tael of agarwood and one tael of gold (35)

Panjiayao.

Hu Muzhi and Xia Yurou walked side by side in the two rows of booths, like a couple who just fell in love.

The reason why they say that they are just in love is because neither of them looked at each other, and their eyes were focused on the antiques in the booth.

While walking, Hu Muzhi suddenly smelled a very special fragrance.

There is a hint of coolness in the honey fragrance.

"This smell." Hu Muzhi moved his nose and smelled it more carefully.

Xia Yurou looked at Hu Muzhi's nose and sniffed, and couldn't help but ask, "Hu Muzhi, what are you doing?35

"Did you smell a very unique smell?" Hu Muzhi asked.

"Smell??" Xia Yurou moved her nose when she heard the words, however, she didn't smell anything.

He shook his head and said, "No - yes."

"No? Could it be that the smell came from you?" - Hu Muzhi wondered.

When Xia Yurou heard the words, she subconsciously smelled her clothes, except for the smell of washing powder, there was no peculiar smell.

Just when Xia Yurou was about to speak, Hu Muzhi took a few steps forward.

Finally, his eyes fell on a booth.

The stall owner is a middle-aged man in a white vest.

The booths were filled with all kinds of antiques, and there were more than 30 pieces.

But they're all gadgets, so it didn't attract any antique geeks to stop and watch.

"It's the smell from this stall." The closer Hu Muzhi got, the clearer the smell.

She looked back at Xia Yurou, gave her a follow-up look, and then walked towards the booth.

Coming to the booth, Hu Muzhi squatted down and his eyes quickly locked on one of the piles of antiques.

It was a piece of wood that was a little reddish in color, and its shape was very uneven. At first glance, it looked like it had been gnawed by countless ants, and it was extremely ugly.

However, it was such an extremely ugly piece of wood that made Hu Muzhi's eyes shine.

"Your stuff?" Hu Muzhi didn't start to look at the piece of wood, but asked the middle-aged stall owner.

"Yes, it's all mine." The middle-aged man spoke with a strong regional accent.

Seeing that someone was patronizing his booth, he took out a pack of big front doors from his body, took out one and handed it to Hu Muzhi.

"I don't smoke, thank you." Hu Muzhi waved his hand to reject the other's kindness.

Xia Yurou also looked at the things on the booth, because at this moment, she finally smelled the peculiar smell that Hu Muzhi said.

After scanning the booth, Xia Yurou also focused her gaze on the extremely ugly piece of wood.

After staring at it for a while, Xia Yurou also had a judgment on the wood.

At this time, Hu Muzhi had already held the extremely ugly wood in his hand, and asked the middle-aged stall owner, "How do you sell this thing?

"Boss, you can just look at it." The middle-aged stall owner said.

"That's what you said." Hu Muzhi shook his head and said, "I said one piece, you definitely won't sell it, but I said one hundred, but I don't think it's worth it, so it's better for you to set a price yourself, how much you are prepared to pay. ?"5

"Then give it eighty." The middle-aged man said.

As soon as Hu Muzhi heard the price, he knew that the stall owner was a real person, and he didn't ask for the price because he liked it.

At the same time, through the quotation of the stall owner, Hu Muzhi also understood that the stall owner must not know the origin of this 'wood'.

According to the rules, Hu Muzhi began to bargain.

This is a process that cannot be saved. Even if the other party only offers one piece, it must be returned.

"Seventy." Hu Muzhi said.

"Mid, seventy is seventy, and it can be considered an opening." The middle-aged stall owner happily agreed.

"Looks like I'm still short." Hu Muzhi smiled and took out seventy yuan from his pocket and handed it to the middle-aged stall owner.

The middle-aged man took the money, checked it, and nodded to Hu Muzhi, indicating that he could take it.

"Then you're busy." Hu Muzhi left the booth holding the ugly piece of wood in one hand.

Xia Yurou followed behind and walked more than 20 meters away from the booth before opening her mouth and said, "Hu Muzhi, the piece you are holding is agarwood, right?

"Amazing." Hu Muzhi gave Xia Yurou a thumbs up.

"Stop laughing at me." Xia Yurou laughed at herself: "If it's really amazing, you don't need to remind me to smell the unique smell of this agarwood."

Agarwood, also known as "Agarwood incense", "Agarwood in water"

There are many kinds of natural incense materials. Generally speaking, the natural materials of incense can be divided into two kinds: plant and animal.

The four most famous incense in history are "Sandalwood Musk", namely agarwood, sandalwood, ambergris and musk.

These four kinds of fragrant materials can be said to be the best of natural fragrant materials, and the price is also very expensive.

Agarwood and sandalwood are plant fragrances, while ambergris and musk are animal fragrances.

Strictly speaking, agarwood is not wood, because it is neither taken directly from a tree nor from a resin.

••••••••••*#*£•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• •

It is the agarwood that has been "knotted" for thousands of years under special circumstances.

Mixed resin, gum, volatile oil, wood and other ingredients.

Usually, agarwood needs ten or decades of age to have more developed resin glands, and after the formation of incense knots, it will take a long time to become agarwood.

Most of the agarwood has a slightly weaker fragrance under normal conditions, but it has a strong fragrance when it is smoked, and the fragrance lasts for a long time.

Agarwood has always been known as the king of incense, and the aroma it emits when burning can make people calm and enter a state of peace and tranquility.

Because the formation of agarwood is extremely difficult and long, it is also known as the diamond of the plant world.

Since ancient times, there has been a saying of 'one tael of agarwood and one tael of gold'.

And now, the prices of some top-quality agarwoods are even more expensive than gold, and their preciousness is even higher than that of diamonds.

Besides incense, agarwood is also a traditional Chinese medicine.

Agarwood can be used as medicine to relieve flatulence, and it has a good effect on the treatment of hiccups and vomiting, confidant pain, large intestine qi stagnation, chest and diaphragm blockage, asthma and other symptoms. Often drinking agarwood cooked water can regulate the five internal organs and relieve pain.

"Hu Muzhi, I have to say, not only do you have a unique vision, but also your sense of smell. You can smell it from so far away. If I don't get close, I can't smell it at all." Xia Yurou said.

"Manager Xia, why do you sound like you're not complimenting me, but rather scolding me?" Hu Muzhi said with a light smile.

"Don't get me wrong." Xia Yurou hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean to compare your nose to a dog's nose.

"Look, they all blurted out and said no." Hu Muzhi laughed.

"No." Xia Yurou said bitterly.

After teasing Xia Yurou, Hu Muzhi smiled and continued to hang out.

Half an hour later, Xia Yurou also got an object.

Jiaqing official kiln.

Although the Jiaqing official kiln cannot be called the three generations of Kang, Yong and Qian, it also has its market value.

As far as official kilns are concerned, in the near future, Jiaqing official kilns will also have high-quality official kilns sold for millions, as well as excellent works of 400,000 to 500,000 yuan.

But more are less than 100,000 yuan, which are most popular among collectors.

Hu Muzhi has seen the Jiaqing official kiln started by Xia Yurou, and the quality is good, and it is still a bottle of appreciation. After 20 or 30 years, it is no problem to increase to 200,000 to 300,000 yuan.

The two had been strolling in Panjiayao until after one o'clock in the morning, because they had to go to work the next day, so they went back to their respective homes and found their respective mothers for work.
