The seeds of red sandalwood are not as simple as imagined, and in this day and age, it may take hundreds of years to plant a good red sandalwood tree. And the average time of a person's life is only 100 years. Subtract the early years, the youth years, and those times when they don't have so much time to take care of.

Moreover, red sandalwood is also a kind of hardwood that is one inch long for a hundred years, and it is more valuable than some cultural relics left by previous dynasties in terms of value, and it is extremely time-consuming to make. Although there are still very few red sandalwood trees in China, most of them have long been purchased by some merchants and sold as furniture.

"According to our current guess, this is a chair made of rosewood. ”

Zhao Ming, who has always shown an indifferent attitude, also firmed, "That's right, this is the red sandalwood tree." But don't you think it's a little strange that it's here??"

Su Yuelan touched her chin, "It's really strange, every family here is extremely poor, and if they want to buy a valuable red sandalwood chair, even if they smash the pot and sell iron, I'm afraid they won't be able to buy it with their current ability." But the fact that it appeared here is really puzzling. ”

However, in order to prove that what the two of them thought was true and not a mistake in identification, Su Yuelan went to the village chief's house, brought a bottle of alcohol, wiped it directly on the wooden chair, and wiped it with a paper towel. Instantly left a lilac on the tissue, which also proved that the two people's conjecture was true.

It's just that the two really can't figure out how to have a red sandalwood tree in such a poor family, which is a bit unreasonable.

"What are you two muttering here?? Can you take me with you, don't ignore me all the time. Qin Lang has been ignored all the time, watching the two of them concentrate on studying a chair, puzzled and at the same time very serious to look at the chair, but he didn't see the reason, it made himself even more confused.

Su Yuelan raised her head suddenly, looked at Qin Lang and asked, "This chair is a famous red sandalwood tree, its value is expensive, don't you think it's a little strange to appear here?"

Qin Lang listened confusedly, what kind of red sandalwood tree??Why do you want to be expensive, he didn't understand it at all, but it was like a swarm of black flies buzzing in his ears, and the noise made him have a headache.

"Can you tell me again, I didn't hear what you just said. ”

"I'm in a bit of a hurry to deal with it now, is there anything I'll talk about later??" Right now, what Su Yuelan is most anxious about is to know where this rosewood chair came from, or is it handed down by their ancestors? But what they analyzed just now, this chair has only been manufactured for about two years, and it is impossible if it is handed down by their ancestors.

"Zhao Ming, you repeat it to me again, but I still haven't figured out what the two of you are talking about. Su Yuelan said it too quickly, even if she repeated her words in her head, she couldn't understand it.

"Anyway, don't you think there's something wrong with this chair, which was made of a very expensive material, and now it's suddenly in the middle of a poor family? ”

"Couldn't this be handed down by his ancestors??" Qin Lang was puzzled. In this day and age, there are many things that have been handed down from generations ago and have become cultural relics by now.

The two of them had already considered this point, but combined with the current situation, they found that it was not possible.

"We've also considered this, it seems that the condition of your current chair is only two years at most, and it is unlikely that it will be handed down by his ancestors. ”

Qin Lang made a bold guess, "So the two of you are now suspecting that he stole it?"

"No, just curiosity. ”

Su Yuelan suddenly became serious, quickly walked to the villager's side, and pointed to the red sandalwood chair, "Where did you get this chair from??"

The villager looked at her serious appearance and scratched the back of his head, "Do you mean this?? This is a chair made from a tree planted by my ancestors a long time ago, and we found that this kind of tree is particularly good, we have been making this chair for many years, and it is still intact. We're going to make some furniture out of this tree in a while, but it's too heavy and too laborious. ”

"And, there's a lot more on the mountain. If you like it, I can take you to that place now, cut it down and make something by hand to bring it back. ”

"When I was at Zuo Qing's house last time, I never found out that there was such a thing. Zhao Ming didn't know when he came over, and carefully recalled that the last time he found it in Zuo Qing's house was only high porcelain, and he had seen it every time he saw red sandalwood.

"He only moved to us in the last two years, so he is also an outsider, even if the relationship is good, I can't give him what my ancestors planted, don't you say? ”

Although the time here is not long, Zhao Ming found that this is simply a treasure of feng shui! It seems that everyone is in tatters, and the poor life cannot be passed, but in fact, there are many hidden here

"Because our ancestors liked this in their time, these were planted by our group, but after they died, there was no one to manage them, and in our age, except for trying to earn money to leave the village, we really didn't have much interest in planting trees. ”

The words of the villagers immediately aroused everyone's interest.

"Can you take us to see it??"

The villagers finally agreed, "Of course!!, I'll take you there right now." For him, the trees planted by his ancestors are meaningless, and if he wants to chop some wood to make furniture, the mountains are all over the place.

In this mountainous area, there are only a few villages where a few families live. Most of them are surrounded by mountains, and at a glance, there are a variety of trees in front of you. Summer is crisp in autumn, and in winter it warms the heartstrings.

When the three of them went to the place where the wisteria tree was located with the villagers, they were suddenly shocked by the scene in front of them. It's like a mine! If you pull it all to mine, the village will soon become rich.

It's just that in today's society, the red sandalwood tree is almost extinct, and it is basically not seen anymore. And it's very attractive in terms of price.

"These trees look like they're hundreds of years old, right??"

"You're right, these trees were planted by our ancestors, and they have been planted for about 500 years now, until the last generation of my father died, and this area was abandoned to what it is now. ”

"Five hundred years??" the three of them were surprised.

Five hundred years is not a long time for a good rosewood tree, after all, it is not a problem for a rosewood tree to live for a thousand years without anyone cutting it down.

"Not only that, but in my grandfather's time, there were countless people who wanted to buy these rosewood trees, but my grandfather felt that it was something that our ancestors had left us, so much so that he refused no matter how much he offered. It's just that I never expected that those people would come here overnight to cut down, and at least dozens of them were cut down overnight, but they also went to court because of this. ”

"But in my generation, I really don't know if its value is really that mysterious, and because of the poverty here, no one cares about it anymore. ”

"Because there are too many, we cut it to burn the fire some time ago, but it is so heavy that everyone is too lazy to come. Simply chop wood nearby to make a fire. ”

The villagers talked about it one after another, and the more they went to the back, they also amazed everyone.

It is so expensive and valuable to build, and it is also a precious medicinal material, if it is only used in this way, it is better to let it grow like this, rather than waste it.

The corners of Su Yuelan's mouth twitched, "Do you know how much this is worth in my country?"

Some of the best wood was cut down and burned as a wood fire. If you change to a billionaire, I'm afraid he won't dare to do this.

The villager shook his head in confusion, "We've never heard of this. Isn't this just an ordinary tree that's as old as we are? "This tree looks like nothing else.

It's no wonder they would be so wasteful, it turns out that they don't know the preciousness of the rosewood tree at all.

Zhao Ming explained to the villagers, "You are wrong, this is extremely lacking in our country, and at the current age of 500 years, its value is at least hundreds of thousands. ”

The villagers were obviously shocked, "Are you kidding me, how can such an ordinary thing be worth so much??" His father and his grandfather never told him about it, but hoped that he would take good care of it. But because of his poverty, he really can't take care of it.

"Its name is red sandalwood, and it is not only extremely rare, but it has long been listed as a threatened plant in other countries. But we never expected that there were so many red sandalwood trees in this place, which really shocked us. ”

"Rosewood??The name sounds familiar. The villager frowned and muttered earnestly, "You can't be lying to me now, are you??" Although there were people in my grandfather's generation who searched for its traces and cut down my tree at the risk of jail for it, it was not as expensive as you say now. ”

"You have forgotten that I am a treasure connoisseur, and although I am not very qualified, I will certainly not go wrong in this regard! It's a pity that some of it has been burned by you before, otherwise if you sell it, you will definitely make a lot of money, and you will not be as poor as you are now. ”

"Are you sure it's a rosewood tree, and it's precious in terms of price?" the villager asked you again in disbelief.

Zhao Ming said firmly: "Not only is she sure, but I am also sure that this is a rare red sandalwood tree." ”

"But I'm curious, since there are so many rare rosewood trees here, why hasn't anyone come to steal the rosewood trees since your grandfather's generation, especially after that incident?"
