At first, he was a little upset when people lost money; As a result, when I saw that others had earned, I immediately became envious, jealous and hateful; Take a closer look, people can't make a lot of money, and he is happy again. This psychology is full of twists and turns, to put it bluntly, it is impossible to get rid of the word "greed". Seeing people lose money, they are afraid that they will be scolded behind their backs when they make money, and they want to make money comfortably, which is also a kind of greed.

Zhang Lu sneered in his heart, even if this old Xie often runs the wood market, he still can't get rid of the layman's level, he only knows how to look at the pattern. The pattern is important, but wood is the foundation, especially the large material that can produce the board.

As soon as the trunk opened, he smelled an unusual fragrance.

Hainan Huanghuali is just a folk common name, and the scientific name is Fragrant Sandalwood. Because he has a scent. What is Flavor Dropping? It's hard to tell, but the flavor is most pronounced when you just cut the material, which seems to be a little spicy, but rich and mellow, and a little ethereal.

It's hard to describe, even if two people smell the same piece of wood together, I'm afraid the description won't be the same, in short, it's a very smelly fragrance.

Different quality of sea yellow, the fragrance is different, new and old, avocado and bran pear, freshly cut and left for a long time, the fragrance is different.

Masters, from the fragrance, can even judge the quality of sea yellow.

Zhang Lu smelled this fragrance and knew that this sea yellow material was very oily.

Judging from the section, the pattern is indeed average. And the so-called general, in fact, is caused by the lack of obviousness, fine, supple, no undulating beautiful patterns.

However, this also means that the density is not generally good!

This sea yellow is a veritable "Zeshan Ge". And the age of the tree was also underestimated before.

It is the name of the people of Qiongdao for the best sea yellow heartwood. The general meaning is that "沤" has been in the mountains and soil for a long time, so it can produce classic and good materials.

"Yes, the pattern is really average." Zhang Lu sneered in his heart and smiled on his face, "Fortunately, it's big enough to make furniture." ”

Lao Xie nodded, "Today is considered to be a fortune together!" ”

Tang Yi thought to himself, at this density, it is rare in Haihuang, it is more than four or five hundred catties, and the weight may be about two percent more.

When assisting the workers in bundling and carrying, Lao Xie also felt that the actual weight was heavier than the visual inspection.

"Don't forget to let me know when the rest of the trees can come out!" Before leaving, Zhang Lu really stuffed Lao Xie with a big red envelope.

"A must!" Old Xie Lezizi. This kind of thing, of course, is best to fix a buyer.

Zhang Lu has already contacted the logistics company in advance, and the two pieces of wood, one thick and one thin, together with some small materials, were packaged and sent directly to the logistics company. After processing, Zhang Lu and Tang Yi directly chartered a car to return to the provincial capital of Qiongdao.

"This old Xie Guang knows the pattern, but he doesn't know that this material is so rare in density and oiliness, and it is even rarer than a good pattern!" On the way, Zhang Lu said to Tang Yi.

"Submerged oil is indeed rarer than a good pattern." Tang Yi said with a smile.

If the density of water is regarded as 1, then the air-dry density of Haihuang wood is generally about 0.9, so it is not submerged. This is also used by some beginners as a way to distinguish between sea yellow and red sandalwood, because the red sandalwood is dense and generally sinks.

Only a very small number of high-density Haihuang old oil can be sunk. The density of sea yellow is inseparable from oiliness, the density is large, the oiliness is generally large, and the oily wood is large, whether it is to make furniture or beads, the effect can be imagined.

"A lot of people are obsessed with sea yellow, and it all starts with patterns. Of course, the pattern is good, but if you give up the density and oiliness because of the pattern, it's a bit of a waste of time! Zhang Lu sighed.

"Now there are many people in the Hetian jade market who have this situation. I like the bright skin color, but I ignore the jade itself. But turnip and cabbage, each has its own love, and the market is like that. ”

Zhang Lu handed Tang Yi a cigarette, "This oiliness, on the surface, the feeling is not so strong, but I have done experiments!" ”

"Oh?" Tang Yi lit a cigarette, "You can't light it, do you?" ”

"Really. Once, I wanted to make a bead, the craft is not good, but a 2.2 cm bead car was broken, I just wanted to see the oiliness of the avocado, so I lit this bead! ”

The bead that Zhang Lu said was actually only medium to high in oiliness, but as a result, it was such a small bead, and after it was lit, he looked at his watch and burned for nearly six minutes!

"That's not all, just when the beads are burning, you can see that the grease inside seems to be boiling, and the smell is tangy! The smoke was white, not choking at all, and it was not smoky. ”

"After burning and cooling, it's charcoal, right? You know what? Zhang Lu remembers every detail very clearly, "I pinched it with my hand, I thought it would be crushed, but in the end, it was still very hard!" ”

On paper, I finally feel shallow, and I never know that I have to do it.

Especially in the antique line, it is useless to just read books, do not go back and forth to take medicine, do not experience a few experiences, and want to become a master, there is no door. Except, of course, Tang Yi.

When they stayed at the hotel, it was already afternoon, and the two were ready to rest for the night, and immediately set off for Hangzhou the next day.

After a brief meal, Zhang Lu looked at his watch, "Go to the antique market?" ”

"You're addicted!" Tang Yi smiled, "Let's go, I took a car all the way, and I just happened to move." ”

Out of the hotel, Zhang Lu thought for a while, "The antique market here can't be compared with Shu, I know that there are two antique cities, but it's not interesting." On the shore of the lake on Park Road, there is an antique market, fortunately it is Sunday, there may be stalls, let's go and see? ”

If you don't have a set goal, the fun of visiting the stall is naturally greater than visiting the antique shop.

When the two arrived at the market, they found that there were indeed stalls, but judging from the vacant positions, some people had been withdrawn, and some stall owners were cleaning up their stalls and preparing to flash.

The various antique markets are generally lively in the morning and even in the morning, and this is in the afternoon, and there are some stalls, which is good.

It is said that it is the antique market, but in fact, cultural products account for a considerable part. Because of the characteristics of Qiongdao, there are three kinds of cultural products here, the first is naturally Haihuang, and the other two are Tridac and Xingyue Bodhi.

Tridacnus comes from the ocean, and the geographical location of Joan Island is there. Xingyue Bodhi is because of the special wool material of Qiongdao. Maogan is a place name on Qiong Island, which is a high mountain area, foggy, and short sunshine hours, which creates high-quality Xingyue Bodhi seeds.

Those who sell Xingyue are shouting that they are hairy seeds, but in fact, Vietnamese seeds and seeds from other producing areas in Qiongdao are also called hairy seeds.

Because these three things occupy a lot of market share, and many stalls have been withdrawn, Tang Yi and Zhang Lu visited most of the market and didn't find anything worth starting.

Just as they were about to leave, Tang Yi found an object that the stall owner was about to put up.
