And in addition to the issue of reputation, Li Yi also considered that such a large material, even if it is precious, he can keep a small part, and the rest must be sold. But since he wants to sell it, he has to wait for the news to be released, so that there are more talents who come and can sell it for a better price.

If he just relied on those small woods, he wouldn't be able to achieve this goal if he was exhausted!

It was precisely because of this situation that he deposited the wood with Boss Chen, and then took Gu Feng and Zheng Shusen to change the channel and start to gamble on Haihuang leisurely.

Hainan Huanghuali's gambling wood also has a lot of doorways in it. Because, although the Huanghua pear produced in Hainan is called Haihuang, there are still many differences between each other, if you don't know these, even if you bet on good materials, you are likely to end up losing money.

First of all, it is the difference between wild old sea yellow and artificially planted sea yellow.

In the case that both are also logs, the difference between old sea yellow and artificial sea yellow is mainly in the color of the heartwood, but the difference is not very large.

The real difference between the two will not be very obvious until the material is unraveled, especially after a series of processing into a finished product, even a person who doesn't know anything can tell the difference between the two at a glance!

Under normal circumstances, the price of artificially cultivated sea yellow is only a fraction or even a dozen of the wild old sea yellow!

Second, the wild old sea yellow also depends on the place of origin. Depending on the origin, the price difference will be relatively large. Specifically, the relatively expensive Hainan Huanghua pear is mainly grown in the Li area, especially the Changjiang Wang. The sea yellow produced in the lower region is the most precious.

And in this market, the slightly larger material is either more yellow, or artificially planted sea yellow.

Li Yi went to more than a dozen in a row, and after carefully comparing the difference between wood and price, he decided to make a move.

His goal is mainly on Lao Haihuang, although Lao Haihuang is generally quoted higher, but it is also 20% of the profit, and the more the base, the more natural the earnings. What's more, you can't expect that the wild ones don't have coolness, but the artificial ones grow cool, right?

Now what Li Yi is holding in his hand is a small piece of old sea yellow, which is only about seven or eight centimeters in diameter, which should be a branch of a big tree.

After observing it, scraping a little more skin and smelling the fragrance, and after finding that there was no problem, he activated the spirit identification card.

Under Li Yi's perspective, the base color of the heartwood part is close to the light walnut color, and the color of the wood grain is darker, and the deepest is close to black.

Moreover, the wood grain of this material is very diverse, including the long lines like flowing water, and there are also many swirl-like scar lines, which are often called ghost eyes by wood merchants. Moreover, in a certain section, a natural beauty like a desert of quicksand has even been formed.

This material is good, it is suitable for making some small carvings, and if you can solve the place where the ghost eye is more concentrated separately, the beads will be very beautiful.

Li Yi decided to collect it himself.

Next, he bought a few pieces of wood of about the same size, plus the gloomy wood at the beginning, which was said to be a lot of gains, but as time went by, Li Yi's brows became tighter and tighter.

Or not? In the past half a day, he has at least a thousand pieces of wood, and it is not limited to huanghuali, other red sandalwood, wenge wood and the like, as long as he encounters it, he will try it, but he still did not find even a trace of coolness.

Either there is no cool air at all in these species, or the cool air dissipates because they have been mutilated.

Now he wasn't sure exactly what the reason was, but he was leaning more towards the former. After all, he touched tens of thousands of peonies in Yangluo, and in the end, he accidentally harvested one only because of the appearance of the flower, and his subsequent experience proved that it was probably an accident.

However, although he didn't find the coolness, he didn't feel bored, because his current level of wood carving has entered the realm of entering the house, that is to say, he is already qualified to use these huanghuali or other hardwoods to create his own works.

Continuing on, Li Yi came to a shop that mainly deals in bright ingredients. The materials here are basically a half-foot-thick wooden pier, and there is no gambling at all, but since he is going to stock up on the materials himself, he doesn't mind stopping by to take a look.

In the shop, there is a strange smell, like an aroma, and like a stench, lingering on the noses of several people, lingering.

"I rub, what does this smell like? Boss, are there dead rats in your shop? ”

The boss was a thin old man, who was holding an elephant that had been carved and polished, and when he heard this, he just glanced at Zheng Shusen, and continued to work with his head down.

Li Yi smiled bitterly and pulled Zheng Shusen, this guy doesn't know if he doesn't learn and has no skills, and he is embarrassed to be thrown in front of the expert.

Most people believe that the taste of sea yellow is very unique, although it is not as dense and long-lasting as agarwood, but it is definitely refreshing, and some people will even be addicted to the fragrance of sea yellow!

But what they don't know is that not all sea yellow is like this, because of the growth environment, later storage, processing and some unknown reasons, some sea yellow does not smell good, sometimes not only not fragrant, but will produce a strange and indescribable taste.

Therefore, connoisseurs know that it is very unreliable to judge whether a piece of wood is sea yellow based on fragrance alone.

Li Yi carefully distinguished the strange smell mixed with the faint aroma, and quickly determined the source, which should be on the shelf that was slightly inside!

It was also the first time he had encountered a strange smell of Haihuang, so once he had determined his location, he walked over quickly.

On the third layer of this shelf, there are several large round pieces about 5 cm thick and more than 30 cm in diameter.

He took a piece of it casually, and when he saw it, his eyes widened, is it so weird?

This round material is indeed Huanghuali, and it is also the old sea yellow, it not only has a unique taste, but also more unique is its cross-section, that above, in addition to the annual rings, there is a black real eye-like ghost eye in the position near the center of the wood!

Ghost eyes are something that can often be seen in wood, and the wood grain of some materials, especially the scar part, is easy to form a slightly darker, eye-like wood grain, which is the ghost eye. In addition to ghost eyes and grimaces, they are all used to describe the shape of the wood grain.

However, the general ghost eyes are on the cross-section of the wood, like this, appearing on the cross-section, Li Yi's first reaction when he saw it was that he had seen a ghost, this is absolutely impossible!

After taking another look, he quickly activated the spirit identification card, and maybe this was the wood he was looking for that contained cool air!

However, there is nothing, not only is there no coolness, but the identification conclusion given by the Jianling card is also normal, wild Hainan Huanghuali.

Li Yi was a little unwilling to take the material to the door of the store, and carefully looked at it with natural light, and slowly, he saw that this was not some kind of material that pretended to be a ghost, it should be a heartwood with a strange shape and color!

On this piece of material, the shape of the ghost eye is very similar to the human eye, but if you look closely, you can still see that it is a strange pattern formed by the cross-section of several wood grains.

He let out a sigh and sighed, there was no cool air in such a peculiar wood, it seemed that this trip was in vain.

"Damn, how can there be such a strange wood? Boss, how do you sell this? ”

At this time, Zheng Shusen also noticed Li Yi's movements, and also went to get a piece of round material, but when he saw it, he was frightened, if this Nima was put in the bedroom, it could scare people to death in the middle of the night!

"His majesty's Lao Haihuang, 200,000 yuan a piece, no bargaining!"

After listening to the boss's offer, Li Yi understood why such a peculiar material was still placed here waiting for him to see, it turned out that the price was too outrageous!

Putting aside the ghost eye on the cross-section, this material is just an ordinary old sea yellow, and when cut into this way, it can basically only be made into beads, 30 cm in diameter, 5 cm in thickness, how many beads can be produced, dare to ask for 200,000? Even if the ghost eye is more peculiar, it doesn't help to make beads in the slightest.

"It's so expensive, only a fool would buy it."

Zheng Shusen muttered and put the material back on the shelf, he found that gambling on wood is not fun at all, it is better for him to gamble on stones, sometimes a piece of material for hundreds of yuan can be studied for half a day.

Li Yi looked at Zheng Shusen, who had an innocent and indignant face, with a smile on his face, your sister, you are scolding the bald donkey in front of the monk, because the fool who can buy it is Lao Tzu!

There are only five pieces of round material in total, Li Yi tried it, and after the boss did not bargain, he directly transferred one million.

Out of the store, Zheng Shusen touched his chin, is this material really weird? One million, your sister, if it goes on like this, his values will collapse!

When Gu Feng put the materials in the car and rushed over, Li Yi was choosing wood in a shop that dealt in Vietnamese huanghuali. The wood in this shop is much larger than the previous ones that are mainly sea yellow, and the thickest ones are even more than 50 centimeters, which can definitely be used to make large pieces of furniture, but his asking price is also very high, and it is not much different from ordinary sea yellow, so the business is not very good.

What Li Yi is looking at now is a piece of wood that is only ten centimeters thick, this wood was discovered by him by accident, it is very peculiar, although the whole material is not thick, but there is almost no sapwood, from the cross-section on both sides, it is a tan heartwood!

Li Yi took a look at the annual rings, and suddenly realized in his heart, if it weren't for the proportion of the heartwood part being too large, the wood of this year would be at least more than 50 centimeters thick, right?

He put his hand on the wood and activated the Soul Identification Card. Suddenly, as if shivering, my whole body shivered slightly. For mobile phone users, please visit wènhttp://mnet
