Treasure Hunt Tycoon

Sophie was going to work, Li Du took Grandma out.

The hospital has a large lawn. Many people are recuperating. He took the puppy to the grass. The puppy was exposed to the sun and the wind. It was just like a hyperstimulant.

Don't look at the grandma's short legs, it is not easy to run shortly after birth, but it is still very prestigious on the lawn.

Even if it is too small, the lawn is uneven, and there are potholes in some places, it is easy to fall into the whole running.

Young, small, and weak legs, once Grandma can't climb up once she falls into the pit.

At noon, Li Du invited Sophie for a meal.

There is a music restaurant in Flagstaff, with a very high-end style. It is full of small private rooms, and different rooms have different music playback.

The two chose a piano room, and Sophie explained the piano music to him. Li Du introduced her to these dishes and was very happy.

In the afternoon, Hans called Li Du and said, "I contacted a home furnishing house. They have experts in mahogany. I want to ask them to identify the wood."

Li Du was also very concerned about this. He first returned to the pine crown room and looked at the treasures, and then returned to the camp.

Among the treasures in his collection, the most valuable one is the Trossi-Leggenda watch that he wears. Don't worry about it being stolen because he is always wearing it.

The second is the jewel saber he picked up from the Arabs. This knife is inlaid with beautiful gems. The blade is sharp and the materials are fine. The scabbard is made of ivory.

But what really multiplied the value of this knife was its identity as a master. Li Du has seen the ability to reproduce time. The owner of this knife is rich or expensive.

The last owner he often sees in the news is Omar Muammar Gaddafi, the top leader of Libya.

He can find the figure of the knife even without the worm's ability. In some news about Gaddafi, his desk sometimes appears, and the knife is placed in the center of the desk.

Unfortunately, there is no introduction about this knife on the Internet. Li Du estimates that it is not a legendary knife. It was only because of using a lot of rare materials that it was collected by Gaddafi.

In addition, there is papyrus that he cannot understand. The text on these papers has not been interpreted so far, and he does not know what is written on it.

These three things were kept privately by him, and on the table was a bright specimen of a dodo skeleton.

This thing is almost out of him, but think about a specimen that can be exchanged for one million dollars, and he is very satisfied with it.

By the time he arrived at the camp, the mahogany expert had arrived. He was a middle-aged Chinese man and an old white man. Both brought tools to the camp.

Hans introduced them and said, "This fellow is your fellow, Antonio Sue, and his family has been doing mahogany research. And this gentleman, Bart Kerry, is an expert in wood and furniture. . "

Li Du shook hands with the two, and Antonio Su asked in awkward Chinese: "Loach, Lee, very practising mud, my foot is good, and I am in Jiangnan."

His Chinese was so embarrassing to Mr. Li that he introduced himself, then opened the wooden box, exposing the trunks inside.

Seeing these trunks, the two people stared at each other and nodded.

Seeing this, Hans asked happily, "The results are optimistic?"

Bart said: "Identification is needed, but in appearance, the results are optimistic."

Li Du asked: "What can you see from the appearance?"

Antonio explained, saying: "These woods belong to different varieties of rosewood. Maybe you know that mahogany is divided into thirty-three types, which are different in appearance."

"Take this," he pointed to a section of fuchsia trunk. "This looks like rosewood, and it looks like Indian small leaf rosewood, a very precious tree species."

Li Dudao: "I've been studying this knowledge recently, but as far as I know, African rosewood looks like this."

Antonio smiled and said, "IMHO, you may have learned, but you still lack experience. The color of Indian rosewood is red at first, and the back gradually becomes darker. Compared with African rosewood, there are patterns in purple and oily Don't do it. "

"African rosewood is purple and black, has no gloss, thick fibers, and has a lot of cow hair lines after drying and shrinking, which is very ugly."

"If the mystery is a bit strange, it is the same rosewood. The leafy rosewood is a living wood, and other rosewoods are dead."

When Antonio introduced, Bart moved into action.

He sought the opinions of two people, and after getting permission, took a small piece from each trunk, and then divided it into several smaller pieces for different treatments.

For each type, he took a small piece into a small beaker, added some solvents to it, and sliced ​​it under the microscope ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ with various processing methods.

Hans was surprised when he saw it: "Is the inspection so complicated?"

Bart laughed. "Of course, it takes five or six hours."

Hans looked at Li Du and said, "All of us lacked awareness of mahogany. We turned out to be stupid when we were at Holbrook."

Some of them called friends to describe them, while others took photos to show friends, and also performed videos, thinking that they could tell the true identity of Mahogany.

It turns out that these methods are very low-level and unreliable.

The most precious of the rosewood is rosewood, and the first thing the two started to examine was purple red wood.

Bart took out a piece of white paper, he took a piece of wood, and drew it on the white paper. He successively scratched more than ten bars, all of which had magenta marks, and the first to last marks remained unchanged.

Li Du asked: "Isn't it possible to determine its identity?"

Bart laughed: "Sir, you don't know how good the counterfeiting technology is now. Soaking certain wood with reagents after potassium iodide mixed with iodine and litmus solution can counterfeit this."

Then, he chopped down some wood chips from the wood chips and put them in a glass with clear water. He said, "We can wait, and we will use fluorescence detection to identify them later."

"It shouldn't be a problem," Antonio said, looking up at the microscope.

Li Du came to look in front of the microscope, the lens is a cross section of wood and fiber lines magnified many times.

He couldn't see anything, but for Antonio and Bart, who came into contact with the wood every day, there was too much information revealed in the microscope.

Antonio is a good teacher, saying, "This is a 30x mirror, and it is the most authoritative method for judging the mahogany message physically. Of course, you must combine other physical methods. Do you want to know?"
