Chapter 423: Ginseng, Life
On the top of the old man's head, there are three green and turquoise leaves, and a flower spike is drawn out of the middle of the leaf, on which are these two finger-thick, bright red fruits, the fruit is not big, but it makes people salivate when they look at it.
"This is ginseng?" Guo Fatzi was stunned and asked, "But, when the jade was formed, was there a tall plant like ginseng?" β
"Probably not." Yang Kang thought of the many factors and ages that geologists had for the formation of jadeite mines, and immediately shook his head and said, "Humans don't know where to make proteins." β
"So, this thing shouldn't be ginseng?" Feng Xiucai walked over, holding a magnifying glass and a flashlight, and kept shining at the fruit.
"What I want to know is, can this thing be eaten?" Yang Kang smashed his mouth and said.
In fact, he is really not a greedy person, but since he first saw this piece of adding material on the jade plate in Jieyang, and used the Taiyin Treasure to see the fruit inside, he has been thinking about it, he wants to eat it, really, this mentality, even he himself is a little inexplicable.
Now, when Guo Fatzi came out of the stone and saw the real thing, he couldn't control his thoughts even more.
Feng Xiucai looked Yang Kang up and down, and then said, "Little Wangye, this is not delicious, right?" β
"Why, I look pretty fresh." Yang Kang said, "I want to eat it." β
"No......" Feng Xiucai didn't know what to say.
"Xiucai, little prince, don't discuss whether this thing is delicious or not." Guo Fatzi frowned and said, "Shouldn't we study it, what is this?" β
"Plant fossils from antiquity." Feng Xiucai said, saying in his mouth, but he was suspicious in his heart, this thing was really a plant in ancient times. If so, why is it in the jadeite, and is it well preserved? Really, the beautiful thing is not like the real thing, if it weren't for the fact that they personally came out of the jade wool, he wouldn't have believed it. This is a piece of jadeite.
Or, even if he believes that it is a piece of jadeite, then he will suspect that it is a jadeite ornament that a wealthy businessman in modern times has a brainless brain and uses high technology to forge it.
However, he has witnessed the whole process of calculating stones, and this thing cannot deceive others.
Guo Fatzi glanced at Feng Xiucai and said, "Xiucai." Have you ever seen such a beautiful, fresh fossil? Others don't know what fossils are, but we don't see them much? That ugly thing can be compared to this? β
"Then you say, what is this?" Yang Kang asked curiously.
"This is definitely the elixir preserved by the immortals in ancient times." Guo Fatzi said with his head tilted.
"At that time, people didn't know where to ......," Yang Kang said.
"So, at that time, there were only immortals." Guo Fatzi said seriously, "Xiucai, you should make a phone call to your master." The ancient mythological civilization he was looking for appeared, tsk tsk......"
Yang Kang pointed to the other half of the stone skin. said: "Fatty, there is still half of the stone skin, you grind it off for me." β
"Oh?" Hearing Yang Kang say this, Guo Fatzi immediately took the sand and stone and began to rub the stone.
"Little prince, what do you say?" Feng Xiucai looked at Guo Fatzi rubbing stones. Immediately walked up to Yang Kang and asked.
"What do you say?" Yang Kang asked rhetorically.
Feng Xiucai gestured for a moment and said, "In the face of such a strange piece of jade, don't you have any feelings?" β
"You're still acting as a journalist?" Yang Kang said, "Wait for the fat man to come out." I polished and polished it, and put it in my room as a decoration, I looked at all kinds of tall and tall, I was poor that day, and I could sell it as an immortal medicine, and I could exchange it for a large sum of money immediately, which was very good. β
"Aren't you curious, why is there such a thing in the jadeite?" Feng Xiucai asked.
"Curious!" Yang Kang said very seriously, "I'll check the information and study it when I go back next time, but now that the two of us are sitting here, can we discuss anything?" In fact, it may be a plant fossil from ancient times, after all, we have not seen ancient creatures, and we don't know how jadeite was formed, maybe jadeite was formed in an instant, for example, all of a sudden, there was an earthquake in that part of Burma, and then a large amount of vegetation was buried in the ground, and one of them was wrapped in stone and became jadeite. Of course, there is another possibility. β
Feng Xiucai couldn't quite accept Yang Kang's statement, and immediately asked, "What is the other possibility?" β
"Another possibility is that the things in this are not plants at all, but a part of the jadeite itself, you look at the fruit, maybe it is the wrapping of the jadeite, white is not white and yellow, it can only be regarded as impurities, and the calcite comes out, and it also affects the value of the jadeite. As for the green and red parts, it is the glass jadeite floating red or floating green, which is very common in jadeite. Yang Kang said with a smile.
"However, it's obviously a plant...... Feng Xiucai felt that his head seemed to be a little wandering.
"I've heardβ" Guo Fatzi said while calcing the stone, "about more than ten years ago, someone in Jieyang dissolved the stone, and a jade tree came out of the calcine. β
"I've seen similar jade trees." Yang Kang said.
"This thing has nothing to do with the Jade Tree." Feng Xiucai shook his head.
"Xiucai, don't interject, listen to me." Guo Fatzi said, "The jade tree calced out, and there were caterpillars in it, and when the stone was dissolved, it was also amazing, but this is not the point - the point is that on the jade tree, there is an egg that is slightly smaller than an egg." It is said that the texture has been completely jadeized, and it is also colorful and crystalline, very good-looking, and when it was solved, it was bought at a high price. β
"And something like that?" Yang Kang was immediately interested, he cheekily asked Shao Wenmo and Tang Chen for jadeite wool this time, just to pick and choose, whether he could find some strange jadeite, but among the jadeite wool sent by the two of them, there were a few pieces of good jadeite, but there were no rare ones.
Guo Fatzi and Feng Xiucai both looked at that thing through the jade, just like looking at antiques through tempered glass in a museum, they couldn't get started, naturally they were all speculation, but he was different, he had seen it with the Taiyin Treasure - the fruit similar to ginseng, through the skin, there was a trace of red blood in it, with plenty of juice, every time he looked at it, he was salivating, he really wanted to eat it.
Guo Fatzi said: "I have studied, when the jadeite was formed, there seemed to be no birds on the earth, so no one knows what that egg is, maybe it is a piece of jadeite similar to an egg." Just like the little prince said, this piece of jadeite is actually just a relatively rare piece of jadeite. Even if it's a plant, it's not worth making a fuss about. β
"Didn't you say that this is an elixir?" Feng Xiucai asked rhetorically.
"Haha!" Guo Fatzi said with a smile while grinding the stone, "If the little prince wants to make a move, hype and hype, say that it is an elixir, let it be played, we love to say what it is, it is what it is, anyway, it will not crawl out to find me theory, of course, if it wants to come out to find me theory, the little prince just said, want to eat it, tsk, it dares to come out, fat man, I will cook it, stew a radish soup for the little prince." β
Guo Fatzi said, and slapped the piece of jade vigorously.
Yang Kang looked at it and was also amused, and said: "Hurry up and come out, take a look, I have been delayed a lot of work today, when is it, I still have to sleep." β
"It's coming, it's coming!" Guo Fatzi said as he sped up.
Since there was only one stone skin left, Guo Fatzi was fast, and soon, he untied all the stone skins, and then he polished it for a while, making the surface much smoother, and washing it with clean water, so that the jade looked more clear and refreshing.
"Little prince, I'll move you into the room." Guo Fatzi said.
"Okay!" Yang Kang nodded and said, "I really like this big radish." β
"It's a pity I can't eat it!" Guo Fatzi laughed.
"You fat man, what do you know besides eating?" Feng Xiucai shook his head, he didn't know what to say.
Yang Kang was a little embarrassed and said with a smile: "I also want to eat it." β
"It's okay, little prince, we'll eat radish soup tomorrow, I'll buy some pork ribs to stew." Guo Fatzi said.
Yang Kang couldn't help but look at the things inside the jade again, and suddenly said: "When you say this, I suddenly feel that this thing is actually more like a radish, and ginseng is long, but the radish has this round shape, maybe there is a radish that looks a little like an old man." β
"Little prince, the leaves of radishes are not like this." Feng Xiucai felt that it was necessary for him to give Yang Kang a turnip.
"I've seen turnips!" Yang Kang said very seriously, "My grandmother often feeds rabbits with turnips. β
Feng Xiucai was completely defeated and said: "The mountain behind your house is very big, you can grow a lot of radishes to feed rabbits, and you can raise as many as you like." β
For this question, Yang Kang just smiled, now the place is big enough, the back mountain is indeed the boss, plus grandma likes it, so he is casual, in fact, rabbits are not very clean animals, there will be peculiar smells, raising a family will stink, he doesn't like it very much.
Back in the room, because the piece of jade calcite came out, it was a cuboid, and the bottom surface was very flat, so Guo Fatzi put it on the Duobao Pavilion for him, and said with a smile: "It's also suitable for decoration." β
"Hmm!" Yang Kang nodded.
"Little prince, you secretly told me, this jade ......" Guo Fatzi said in a low voice, "What is inside?" β
"How do I know?" Yang Kang was stunned and said puzzled.
"Then why are you so cautious?" Guo Fatzi frowned and said, if Yang Kang didn't know the surface of this piece of jadeite, why would he be so cautious, and even, he didn't hesitate to spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy it, even if he wasn't optimistic about the giant jade wool at all?
