In the next half a month, Wu Shixiang accumulated the transformation energy value step by step, while transforming the red sandalwood bracelet, after a period of time, Mu Yuanju continued to have high-quality products, everyone gradually got used to the high-quality red sandalwood bracelet for sale, and slowly his small shop had a lot of reputation and fame in the market.

Don't underestimate this, as one of the largest cultural and entertainment markets in Kyoto, Shilihe has more than 100 merchants and thousands of customers on weekends. There is no one like Wu Shixiang who has worked for more than a year and has such a reputation!

Even Gu Gu secretly admired Wu Shixiang's strength, although cultural toys are not as old as antiques and have a profound cultural heritage, but they are also the hobby of literati. Play with the text! Something that cultural people play! As the old saying goes, no matter how much money you spend, it's just a thing! Commodity! If you can really play it yourself for more than three years, you can say that you are a thing! It's fun to play!

Wu Shixiang is a young man in his twenties, one has no backing, two has no funds, and three has no connections! Unexpectedly, he made a name for himself in the market? Even if it's ancient, it's not as good as it was back then! This kid was born to do this! If you don't accept it, you can't!

"You kid has been very moisturizing lately! I heard that last month, the storefront turnover was 200,000 smaller? The profit is at least seventy or eighty thousand, right? By the way, not counting the 350,000 you sold agarwood bracelets! O little rich man! "At noon, I called Wu Shixiang to come to the store to eat together, and chatted while drinking tea after eating.

"Hey, hey! Just getting started! That's a lot of money in your old eyesight! A set of mahogany furniture tops me for a few months to earn! Small money, little money! Wu Shixiang was modest, but he looked like a villain.

Gu first praised Wu Shixiang's business vision, and then said with concern: "Don't give me a poor mouth!" The last time you won Gou Peng, the people in the market were impressed with you, and I couldn't imagine how quickly you could find the best supply, and suddenly launched a boutique bracelet, taking advantage of the opportunity to open the market, and establish your Muyuanju brand, doing a good job! The beginning is very good, as long as you manage it well, the future is limitless! By the way, has Gou Peng's kid made any recent moves? ”

Wu Shixiang replied indifferently: "The big dog has not opened the door for more than a week since the last time Doubao lost, and then it was honest, and there was no small action, but he rarely went out, just stayed in the store, and he didn't want to see me embarrassed." I don't bother to bother with him, as long as he doesn't ask me for business, I don't want to see him! ”

"Hmmm! You have to keep an eye on this kind of villain! He fell very badly this time, not only the merchants looked down on him for his shameless style of bullying the small, but also lost a lot of old customers, a few merchants who had long had grievances deliberately slandered him behind his back, saying that he sold fakes, shoddy to deceive people, now I estimate that his store is not patronized! Gu nodded, taking a sip of tea.

"He deserves it! Usually arrogant and domineering, do you really think he is an ancient you? Don't pretend if you don't get to that status! Otherwise, you will definitely be thundered! If you don't die, you won't die! Wu Shixiang is even more disdainful of this kind of villain.

"You remember, since ancient times, it has been a king who has been a king and a loser! History is written by winners! If you lost last time, it's even worse now! Don't be impulsive next time you encounter something, planning and then acting is the way of smart people! Remember! "The old saying is serious about educating Wu Shixiang.

Wu Shixiang remembered the news he had just heard, and asked with concern: "By the way, I have heard that what kind of gambling competition will be held in our market in a few days?" ”

"That's what I called you today! A few days ago, Kyoto TV Wenwan financial management program came to me, saying that they want to organize a gambling competition, I hope our market can cooperate, I think it is a good thing, you can promote the market, let more people understand Wenyao, and Lao Zhao Lao Qian after a few old merchants discussed, we decided to do it together! Gu nodded in acknowledgment and explained.

"Cultural play and financial management? I'm a fan of them! The show is good, it's all about the little things around us, especially the host! It's called ~~~ hoarfrost! That look and figure! It's so hot! When Wu Shixiang heard that it was a show for cultural play and financial management, he became excited, he was an old fan.

"Hmmm! It was the white host who came to me and said that he hoped that our market organization, their TV station would report and publicize the whole process, and make a continuous program together to prepare for the National Day holiday. Your kid has a lot of tricks in his heart! "Ancient disdain shì Wu Shixiang.

Wu Shixiang muttered to himself in his heart: "That's you seventy or eighty years old!" If the body is not good, it is natural to be pure and have few desires! When a normal man sees that hoarfrost, there is nothing that is not hard! But he didn't dare to say it, so he could only think to himself.

"The rules of the competition we roughly want to be like this, the registration fee is 1,000 yuan, anyone can sign up, first conduct the audition one day in advance, find some players or merchants with good eyesight to enter the retest, and the audition will be refunded but the registration fee will be refunded. After entering the semi-finals, it will be divided into three competitions. "One is your strong point red sandalwood, the second is the cliff cypress that was fried in the sky last year, and the third is huanghuali!" We have some raw materials in the market, limited to 1,000 yuan, to see who has a good vision, can bet on the highest value of the material, and finally the winner can get a cash gift of 30,000 yuan from the TV station! The second and third places also have ten thousand and five thousand! "Ancient, let's briefly talk about the general part of the game.

Wu Shixiang heard that there was no problem, and asked the ancient meaning: "Yes!" Fair and just! It's all about eyesight! I've got your back! So what do you mean by calling me? ”

"I'm just asking you kid to participate? How do you bet on wood eyesight? If you're sure, participate! It's a rare opportunity to be on TV, now you're just a little famous in the market, if you can show your face on TV, it will be even worse! Come, I'll test you! ”

Gu Gu said as he took out a few pieces of wood and put them on the table for Wu Shixiang to see.

"There are red sandalwood, blood sandalwood, purple sandalwood, fragrant nan, water nan, as well as Yue Huang and Hai Huang here! You give me a point! Gu Gu took out seven or eight small ingredients at once, all shapes, different sizes, so that Wu Shixiang could distinguish the types.

"No problem!" Wu Shixiang started to get started with confidence, and in the past, he really didn't dare to pack tickets like this, but with the big player system, this is not a piece of cake!

"Let's start with these two! This is small-leaved red sandalwood, the aroma is mellow and natural, and this African blood sandalwood has a pungent taste and a sour smell! The color is also too bright red, and the brown eyes are large and dense, which is easier to identify! "Wu Shixiang started with red sandalwood, and he could distinguish the species as soon as he smelled it.

"Hmmm! Go on! Gu didn't express an opinion, and said lightly.

"Let's talk about these Nanmu species, in history, Nan, camphor, Catalpa, and Zhenshu are called the four famous trees, and Nanmu is crowned with its head, in Chinese architecture, Jinsi Nanmu has always been regarded as the most ideal, the most precious, the most advanced building materials, widely used in palaces, temples and mausoleums. According to the "Essentials of Naturalism", there are three kinds of Nanmu: one is fragrant Nan, the wood is slightly purple and fragrant, and the texture is also very beautiful. "The second is the golden silk nan, there is gold wire in the wood grain, which is the best kind of nanmu, and what is even more rare is that some nanmu materials form natural landscape character patterns; The third is water nan, the wood is softer, and it is mostly used to make zuò furniture. Now the bracelets are all playing golden silk nan, which is characterized by beautiful water waves. ”

"This piece has a soft texture and poor density, and it is a water nan! This one is a little fragrant, the color is heavy, and it is fragrant! Although the last one has white skin, the characteristics of gold wire can be seen from the cross-section, the texture is the hardest, the oil density is the best, and it is the authentic golden silk nan! "There is not much difference between Nanmu, it is difficult to distinguish the specific species without a few years of experience, Wu Shixiang did it in less than two minutes, so that Gu Gu couldn't help but nod secretly.

"Finally, it's your old job! Huanghuali! Gold in the wood, my ultimate goal. By the way, I heard that you spent millions of dollars to shoot a Huanghuali circle chair from Guardian in the late Ming Dynasty? Let me open my eyes? ”

"you! Get down to business first, and go home when you have time! Tell me the results! The old laughed and scolded.

"This piece is the standard more yellow! The texture is not very clear, the background color is not clean, the fragrance is a little sour, and the brown eyes are typical of wheat ear patterns. This is sea yellow, wide open door, tiger skin pattern, clean background, SOEASY! "Wu Shixiang has been playing red sandalwood and huanghuali for many years, and he knows the result at a glance, and there is no suspense.

There has always been a debate about the distinction between Haiyue and Haiyue, because Hainan Huanghuali is basically no big material now, and it is a national second-class protected plant tree! Living trees cannot be cut down, and the materials that can be found are all left over from the past or picked up in the mountains. Large materials start from 10 million a ton, and good materials can be sold for 20 million tons, which is more expensive than gold!

Players generally divide the sea more mainly hand string material, Vietnam's bracelet is half cheaper than Hainan's, but now with the material is getting less and less, the previous Yue Huang was only one-tenth of the price of the sea yellow, and now it is slowly rising to half, and the really good Yue North material bracelet is basically sold as Hai Huang!

The difference on the grain is mainly the center point of the grain group, and the biggest feature of Haihuang that distinguishes it from other Huanghuali is that the center of the grain group is "solid", which must be a black spot, black heart, thick or fine, and always gives people the feeling of "Ten Thousand Buddhas". The center of the yellow texture group is empty, and the lines are surrounded by a circle, and when they reach the center, they disappear one by one, and finally they don't finish.

Now many players take "grimace" as an important indicator to identify Hainan Huanghuali, this statement is not very accurate, the accurate standard should be "ghost eyes", that is, the "solid black spots" mentioned above, Yue Huang and Haihuang can have "grimaces", and only Haihuang has obvious "ghost eyes".

"Ghost Eye" is actually the center of the branch fork, Haihuang is a coiled tree species, the branches are very many, according to the words of the local Hainanese, it is to grow on both sides, not to the top, moreover, the maturity of Hainan is very long. In this process, either due to the harsh environment or due to the struggle for nutrients, a sea yellow tree continues to fork, and the texture of the guide tree will be distorted, forming the "ghost eye" we see today. Other Huanghua pear, such as Vietnamese Huanghua pear, has a relatively straight tree, and the maturity time only needs to be hundreds of years, so it is difficult to form a "ghost eye".

Another important factor is the proportion of oil in the sea yellow, after testing, it was found that the oil content of Hainan pear is up to 27%, and the more yellow is only 0.5%, because of such a rich oil content, after a sea yellow item is played for a period of time, the surface will begin to form a layer of crystal clear, amber-like texture, giving the player a comfortable feel, as delicate and smooth as the baby's skin, which is why the sea yellow is the most expensive.

"Not bad! You kid has a bit of eyesight, you're right! It seems that there is no problem in participating in the competition and entering the semi-finals, as for whether you can get the ranking or not, it depends on the performance on the spot! Sign up too! It's a good idea to have a chance to be famous! Gu said with satisfaction.

"Rematch? Look down on me! If you don't take the first place and let you see, it's not Wu Shixiang! ”

"Don't be too crazy! I have seen a lot of folk masters, who are not businessmen, but their eyesight is more poisonous than that of trading! This time it's a bet on wood, not a small material, there is everything on the wood, white skin, flower skin, wormholes, black spots! There's hollow, rotten material in it! It's no easier than gambling stones! Don't take it too lightly! The ancient stern admonished.

"Don't worry! I also signed up to try to get a good ranking, and also appeared on TV, and got close to the white frost! Ha ha! Wu Shixiang smiled treacherously, with an impure expression.
