Chapter 381: First East

Redwood identification is a very complex subject. Antonio and Bart only took a long time to identify the lobular rosewood and used many methods.

The two taught Li Du and Hans physical identification methods.

For example, look at the distribution of the hole in the cross section.

If it is real rosewood, the diameter of the tube holes in the whole growth wheel is slightly equal and distributed more evenly, otherwise it is fake rosewood.

You can also look at the growth wheel and observe it on the cross-section of the wood. Unlike other woods, the growth wheel of red sandalwood is not obvious, which is an obvious feature.

In addition, you can look at the surface color of the board. The new section of the red sandalwood is orange-red. Over time, it will become dark purple or dark purple, and it will also have light and purple-black stripes.

After watching the two demonstrate these methods of identification, Hans stunned: "Too complicated?"

Bart shrugged. "Oh, I've only introduced half of it. Come on, I will continue to introduce it. The following is judged by smell."

"Small leaf sandalwood has a unique fragrance when rubbing against objects, similar to sandalwood, but lighter. Especially after a quick file with a file, the taste is stronger."

Hans continued to stare. "..."

People who were so good at learning Li Du finally gave up studying, it was too difficult, and it was a test of experience.

Take the knife-cutting technique when observing, for example, the cross-section is required to be cut with one knife, and the knife cannot be returned.

After a complicated inspection, the appraisal came from noon to night, and the results came out.

Li Du is right, these woods are real mahogany!

Not only these woods, but also the planks from warehouse 46, which are also real mahogany.

Four wooden boxes and eight redwoods, the most precious of which is the most complex identification of red sandalwood, which is a real redwood from India. It weighs nearly four hundred kilograms and is of great value.

There are also black rosewood, ebony, Laos red rosewood, Southeast Asian white rosewood, and so on. Eight woods cover eight rosewood varieties and are genuine.

After getting the appraisal, Hans and Li Du gave a high-five and roared excitedly: "Thank God, we're very lucky! Ah, no, Li, you are too great!"

Li Du nodded, uh, this is a human talk.

Later the two discussed for a moment. The Trang Rosewood Pavilion obviously only had fake furniture, but why did it have precious real rosewood? And they haven't taken it?

No one knows the real answer. The speculations of the two people are the same as those of Li Du at first. Although the Redwood Pavilion makes fakes, they make high-end fakes.

The counterfeit mahogany furniture in the warehouse either adopts the superb craftsmanship and bleaching method, or performs skinny fakes.

Among them, real mahogany is needed when the skin is faked. They did buy some real mahogany for a high price, and used some, and some were useless, and put them in the warehouse.

Later, the Redwood Pavilion made a lot of money using the auction method. In order to prevent people from discovering problems, they immediately made money and left Holbrook.

The remaining unused real mahogany was left in the warehouse together with the fakes. For some reason, the counterfeiters did not take them away, and later they did not come and take them away.

In this way, the final warehouse lease contract expired and the warehouse company auctioned them.

Hans asked the two to value the wood. The biggest value was the small leaf rosewood. The market price was 100,000 US dollars per ton and the value was about 40,000 US dollars.

The second is the red rosewood, which costs about 20,000 US dollars per ton. This wood has 500 kilograms and can sell for 10,000 US dollars.

Other redwoods are relatively low in value, most of them cost less than US $ 10,000 per ton, and together they can be worth around US $ 30,000.

Li Du summed up a bit, all rosewood has a value of more than 80,000, which is not bad.

Hans was a little disappointed and said, "Isn't rosewood expensive? Why is most rosewood worthless?"

Antonio shrugged. "This is the market price. Some are really expensive. Chinese Huanghua Limu can sell for $ 1.5 million a ton, and Vietnamese Huanghua Limu can sell for $ 200,000 a ton, but you don't."

It takes hundreds of years and thousands of years to make Huanghuali wood into wood. This kind of wood is extremely rare, and the furniture made is extremely expensive. Many people like it and may not buy much.

Probably for this reason, the mahogany pavilion did not make counterfeit rosewood furniture.

It is also possible that the mahogany pavilion could not find the real huanghuali wood to veneer, so no fake was made.

Li Du gave a guess, Hans wondered, "No, when the first warehouse was opened, didn't anyone say that Huanghuali appeared?"

"They guessed blindly, do you really believe those people?" Li Du said angrily.

The profit of 80,000 yuan is not large, but it is always better than not making it. Of course, it is better to be fooled Boll and Rick. It is miserable to think that Rick lost more than 100,000.

Hans was looking for a mahogany buyer. Li Du was going to Boston during his trip. He had to send a Dodo skeleton specimen to him, but the other party offered a high price of one million!

He didn't want to let too many people know about this, so he took Godzilla and Boston together to Boston without Hans.

If he wasn't worried about the other side disposing of himself for one million ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ he didn't even want to take them.

Boston is the capital and largest city of Massachusetts, and the largest city in the New England region in the northeastern United States.

Located on the Atlantic coast in the northeast United States, this city belongs to the eastern region, and Arizona belongs to the western region.

Li Du has not left Arizona, and this trip to the east made him quite nervous.

However, Boston has a good law and order. It is an old city. It was founded in 1630 and has a great status in the United States. Even American history started from this city.

The birth of the United States originated from the War of Independence, and the fuse of this war was the Boston Tea Party.

This history Li Du learned in middle school, got on the plane, the plane's brochure was introduced again, and there was also an introduction manual in Chinese.

There are many good universities in and around Boston, and a large number of Chinese students reside here, so there is more about Chinese.

Li Du is very interested in geography knowledge, history and culture around the world. This is why he flew to Boston for trading himself. Otherwise, it is more prudent to invite the other party to Flagstaff.

The taxi drove from the airport to the city, then Dao asked him to park, and they walked into the city.

Li Du asked: "Why walk?"

"The layout of the city is compact, walkable, and not suitable for driving, especially in the Beacon Hill area we are going to, which is the oldest and busiest area in Boston's history."

Li Du didn't care about walking, but they carried the skeleton of the Dodo specimen. This thing was close to one meter high and too big.

Godzilla lifted the big wooden box without complaint. Under his burly figure, this wooden box was like a toy box, which successfully solved the problem that made Li Du difficult.
