Chapter 475: Hemp Walnut
By this time, the skin of the walnut has dried up, and it is so dry that it is not easy to clean it without the right tools.
Liu Fu looked at Han Peacock holding a knife, struggling to cut the skin of walnuts, she said, "What are you doing with this?" ”
Han Peacock said: "Haven't you heard of walnuts? ”
There are a lot of walnut lovers in the magic capital, and they can be counted in China, so as soon as Liu Wu heard Han Peacock say, he knew the way.
"You say this is a walnut? Isn't this the iron walnut that no one wants? Liu Wu said.
Han Peacock said: "Iron walnuts are also cultural walnuts, although the quality is poor, but there are still people who play them." ”
Liu Fu said in surprise: "You won't be a treasure hunter, right?" If this is really a walnut, you will only find out now, and besides you, no one else knows the value of this thing? ”
Han Peacock said: "I was still young when I left my hometown, at that time, I was an ordinary rural child, and I have learned a lot of knowledge in the past ten years, so it is not strange to discover the value of iron walnuts now." ”
"Is this really a walnut?" Liu Fu looked at the walnuts all over the ground, picked up one, and turned it upside down, it was really overwhelming, but this iron walnut was really incomparable with his father's pair.
"Why is it so ugly, my dad has a pair, jujube red, shiny, very beautiful." Liu Fu said suspiciously.
Han Peacock said: "That's after playing, these haven't been shelled yet, wait to remove the black skin outside, and then play for a while." This iron walnut should also be beautiful. ”
The little girl blinked her eyes and listened carefully to what Han Peacock said, but her heart was full of doubts, this kind of big and heavy iron walnut was something that no one wanted.
The first time she went into the mountains, she picked up a lot of these walnuts, but when she got home, she was beaten.
From then on, she knew that no one wanted these things, but why would this big brother like them?
"Little girl, such an iron walnut. Maybe it's worth more than your basket of walnuts and chestnuts. Han Peacock saw the little girl's doubts. So said to her.
The girl pursed the corners of her lips, obviously not convinced.
Liu Xu knew that Han Peacock would not deceive people, so she directly took the knife in Han Peacock's hand and picked up an iron walnut. Cut quickly in your hands.
Han Peacock waited for the flexible hands of the catkins. He shouted in surprise: "The skill is almost the way!" No wonder the hospital used you for a cow. With your kind of skills, it is really unreasonable not to go to the operating table. ”
Liu Wu said angrily: "When I just graduated, I didn't have this kind of skill. Not yet scheduled for surgery every day? You don't want to watch TV and say, the kind of intern doctor or something that doesn't have a chance to operate, that's a chance to become famous, there is no chance to get on, a chance to make people famous.
For example, when I just graduated, there were no major surgeries, but minor surgeries could not be done every day, and I spent almost all of my time at work on the operating table. ”
Liu Wu spoke, just a few knives, the black skin of the walnut mountain was cut off, and now all that is left is the remnants of some holes, for these, Liu Wu is also very methodical, I saw the knife in her hand flying, the knife was one by one, as if it was ripping off the rotten parts of the rotten apple, and soon, all the black skin was dug out.
"Alright, that's it." Liu Wu handed the walnut to Han Peacock and said.
Han Peacock sighed: "The thought that this kind of technique is practiced on the human body makes my scalp a little numb, but with your grasp of the scalpel, maybe learning hollow carving is also a good hand, these walnuts are high-quality carving materials." ”
The catkins hadn't been on the operating table for a long time, and now she had a little itchy hands, so after peeling one, she picked up another walnut and peeled it.
"Okay, you can teach me when you're free." The catkins didn't raise their heads.
Han Peacock said: "As long as your wrist strength is reached, with the level of your knife playing, you will definitely be a master carver." ”
"Then I must learn, every day surgery, no wrist strength, if the hand shakes slightly, it is likely to ruin the patient's life." Willow catkins said.
As he spoke, the catkins were three or two times, and another walnut was peeled.
When Liu Wu put the walnuts in Han Peacock's hand again, Han Peacock found out that this was actually a pair of toad heads.
Toad head is a variety of iron walnut, there are various sub-classifications in this variety of iron walnut, toad head is one of them, different origins, different tree species, toad head itself also has different finer sub-classifications.
The general characteristics are that the belly is large, the bottom is large, but it is uneven, the caudal umbilicus is long, the side is narrow and short, and it often disappears when it does not extend to the bottom, and the origin of the toad's head is due to its own lines.
This walnut looks like a toad lying there, with two forelimbs and two hind limbs and a head that are more vivid, and the lines of the pimples are even more vivid.
Of course, many iron walnuts are not quite like toad heads, which are a bit far-fetched, but this kind of iron walnuts, as long as you imagine it a little, you can see the similarity between it and toad heads.
The variety of toad head is generally relatively large, like other iron walnuts, the grain is shallow, easy to crack, and the price is basically not high, but no matter how high, it is more valuable than ordinary walnuts.
The eyesight of the catkins is very accurate, the two iron walnuts she selected are large, and what is even more rare is that after removing the black skin, the two walnuts are actually about the same size, Han Peacock visually inspected, both are more than forty millimeters, such a pair of toad heads, the price is more than 100 yuan.
Liu Wu cut out seven or eight iron walnuts in a row before he stopped, and when he saw that the little girl was looking at him with curious eyes, Liu Wu smiled and said, "Impatient, right?" ”
The girl shook her head, and Liu Fu said: "You can also pick some of these walnuts, which are worth more than the ones in your box." ”
The girl shook her head again, the memory of the last beating was still clear, and she would not make the same mistake a second time.
"Don't worry about her, as long as you can seduce this little beauty, we will take her home and raise her, and then she won't have to go into the mountains early in the morning to pick walnuts." Han Peacock said with a smile.
"It seems that she is also a prosperous fortune, if she hadn't led us all the way, you wouldn't have noticed these iron walnuts!" Willow catkins said.
Han Peacock said: "You two are prosperous. ”
Liu Wu rolled his eyes: "I don't know how much wealth Lu Dao can give you this time?" ”
Han Peacock said: "This kind of walnut is not very valuable, if it is just such a tree, it is not worth much, but I remember that we still have a lot of them in the back mountain, if there are more, the value is very considerable." ”
"And how much is such a pair of iron walnuts worth?" Liu Wu picked out a pair of the largest iron walnuts and asked Han Peacock.
Han Peacock looked at the pair she cut out again, although the texture is different, it is not a pair, but an ingot-shaped and a toad head, even if it is not a pair, the price can be sold for three or five hundred yuan a piece, and the price of these two is much higher than the previous pair of toad heads.
"Three or five hundred dollars!" The luck of catkins is still very good, among the iron walnuts, the best one is this price, if the size is small, thirty or fifty is a high price.
"Why is it so cheap? My dad's pair cost him more than 3,000. "The catkins said incrediblely.
Han Peacock said: "That might be a pair of hemp walnuts!" Hemp walnuts are different from iron walnuts, hemp walnuts as the name suggests that walnuts are hemp noodles in appearance, and now hemp walnuts are more valuable.
The chicken heart, tiger head, lion head, official hat and boy hat in hemp walnuts are more valuable, and the price of more than 40 mm is higher, at least 1,000 yuan for a pair.
Iron walnut is this kind of heavier, but generally very small, mostly below 4 cm, generally iron walnut shows smooth, there are four-edged varieties, but the price of iron walnut is low, generally between 300 and 500 yuan, not good varieties of dozens of yuan is also available. ”
"You don't think you're right! Look at this pair of iron walnuts, its surface is so wrinkled, it's like pockmarks, which is as smooth as you said? ”
Han Peacock looked at it: "Huh? Really. ”
Saying that, Han Peacock carefully checked a few walnuts cut out of the catkins, and after looking at them carefully, Han Peacock found that these iron walnuts were not smooth, they all had deep lines, and they were not small.
Han Peacock looked thoughtfully at the iron walnuts on the tree, generally the iron walnuts are relatively small, because it is very heavy, and the walnut branches are too big to bear that kind of weight, but this walnut tree is obviously an exception.
The biggest difference between iron walnut and hemp walnut is that the cortex of iron walnut is softer, and the texture of the plate feels a little "dull" after about half a year!
The hemp walnut is relatively hard in the leather, and if the plate is a few years old, the texture still maintains the original texture, but there is a slight pulp, which makes the texture feel rounded.
In terms of shape, iron walnuts are cross-pointed, pot-bellied, and heavy to the touch, and are cheap because they are produced in large quantities in the south.
Generally, the elderly like to rub a pair of such "whoosh" in their hands when they are walking! I don't feel sorry if I lose it or lose it.
The hemp walnut is an iron walnut and an ordinary walnut tree, in nature, after countless years of natural hybridization of the variety, of which almost a wild tree is a variety, except for grafting, of course.
There are also varieties of cross tips, such as cross stuffy, white lions, some official hats and boys' hats, etc., most of the others are big tips, blunt tips, etc., the belly is big and small, and the feel is much lighter than that of iron walnuts, but the hardness can be obviously felt.
"How's that, isn't it a little different?" Liu Fu looked at Han Peacock studying there and said curiously.
Han Peacock said: "This is definitely a hybrid variety, but in terms of feel, it is more likely to belong to iron walnut, but from the analysis of hemp surface, size, and shape, it looks like hemp walnut, because the wild walnut tree is almost a variety, so anything may appear, if it is really a hemp walnut, it is worth money."
