According to scholars, the "mountain clam" in the "Compendium of Materia Medica" and "The Book of Herbal Illustrations" in the "mountain clam" is today's Chinese forest frog.

The "oil" of the toad is the fallopian tubes, ovaries, and lipids of the female toad.

Husky toad oil has always been used as a royal tribute treasure, and was listed as one of the "Eight Treasures" and "Eight Mountain Treasures" during the Qing Dynasty.

In Li Shizhen's "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is recorded that the oil of the husky toad is sweet and salty, and the sex is peaceful. It has the ability to relieve deficiency, fever, water, swelling, replenish deficiency, and especially benefit mothers. In the "Chinese Pharmacopoeia", "Dictionary of Chinese Medicine", "Handbook of Chinese Herbal Medicine", "Chinese Pharmacology", etc., it is also recorded that the oil of the toad moistens the lungs and nourishes yin. It is used for physical weakness, postpartum qi deficiency, tuberculosis and cough, endocrine disorders, etc.

Medical researchModern medical analysis and identification of toad oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, estradiol, progesterone, phospholipids, 18 kinds of amino acids (including 8 kinds of essential amino acids), a variety of vitamins and a variety of essential, semi, essential trace elements and other components.

It is suitable for improving the body's immunity, promoting metabolism, regulating endocrine, supplementing estrogen, softening cardiovascular and cerebrovascular systems, tonifying the kidneys and invigorating essence, moistening the lungs and nourishing yin, delaying aging, moisturizing the skin, lowering lipids and other effects.

Modern medicine calls it "green soft gold" and is designated as a national second-class protected Chinese medicinal material, which can be said to be a real good thing, and Han Peacock knows so well, mainly because Liu Fu wants Han Peacock to breed some snow clams for backup.

Knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Qin Mingyue was even more careful. Such tricks are all played, and her little eyesight is really nothing in this antique shop, which makes Qin Mingyue, who has recently improved her memory, very frustrated.

I thought that I had a strong memory, and I might be able to show myself in front of Han Peacock by relying on erudition and strong memory, but I didn't expect it to be a real battle, only to find out that she was just talking on paper.

On the return trip. Han Peacock: They passed by the grandfather and grandson who sold wood carvings. It's a pity that there are already people going to the ground, and the old man has left any contact information, and I don't know how to contact him.

Han Peacock was a little disappointed, if he could hire the old man back this time. Then this time it is not in vain.

Shook his head. Han Peacock threw these thoughts out of his head, which didn't have any effect. I can only wait for the old man to call, I am lucky, but I am lost.

In the evening. Han Peacock: They found a hotel nearby to stay.

Just after dinner, Han Peacock received a strange phone call, and he wanted to hang up casually, but suddenly he remembered the events of the day, and came to a secluded place to answer the phone.

"Hey, is that Mr. Han?" Sure enough, it was the voice of the old man during the day.

"Yes, I'm Han Peacock, I don't know if the old man has thought about it?" Han Peacock suppressed his feelings and asked calmly.

"It doesn't matter where my old man lives, the main thing is whether you can get a hukou for my grandson and send it to the school." The old man spoke his terms.

Han Peacock paused slightly, making the old man think that he was considering, but he didn't pause for too long, just for a while, and said: "As long as there is no problem with the background, it is not a big deal to get a hukou, and it will be easier to go to school with a hukou." ”

"That's fine, I'll go with you, I don't know where your carving workshop is?" The old man decided to come down and asked.

Han Peacock smiled, and finally solved the problem of the carving master: "Since the old gentleman has decided, it will be easy to do, I don't know if the old gentleman knows Phoenix Jewelry, if he knows, it will be easy to do, and now the boss of Phoenix Jewelry is my wife." ”

The old man smiled and said, "I know, Phoenix Jewelry, I naturally know, since it's decided, it doesn't matter where it is." ”

"That's good, I don't know what the old gentleman is called after talking about it for so long?" Han Peacock said.

"My name is Qian Mingyuan, as for where I am from, I don't have a fixed place, I have been drifting like this for the past seven or eight years, if I want to say the exact place of origin, it is from Hetian."

Hearing this, Han Peacock smiled even more happily, and he immediately said, "That's the famous hometown of beautiful jade!" I don't know where the old man is now, can we meet again and discuss it in detail? ”

"Where do you say, I've already packed my things, and our grandparents can just go over." The old man said happily.

"Okay, I'm in the Warm Hotel, you come over and I'll wait at the door." Han Peacock said.

After Han Peacock made the call, he came over and said to everyone and went out to wait.

The town is not big, the old man led his granddaughter over soon, Han Peacock welcomed them into the hotel, Qian Mingyuan said that their ancestors and grandchildren had no fixed residence, so Han Peacock arranged a room for them, intending to let them stay.

"Old man, I won't beat around the bush, your old man should be specialized in carving nephrite, right?" Han Peacock got straight to the point.

Qian Mingyuan didn't seem to be surprised that Han Peacock asked this, so he said calmly: "Of course, in that place in our hometown, because of the production of Hetian jade, as long as it is a craftsman, it is all carved nephrite." ”

"I wonder if the old man has a teacher?" Han Peacock asked directly again.

The old man smiled: "Naturally, there is a teacher, and our industry has also been passed down from generation to generation, but in recent years, jade has been difficult to find, and our life has not been easy." ”

The old man was a little helpless, after he knew that Han Peacock had something to do with Phoenix Jewelry, he roughly guessed the purpose of Han Peacock, his carving is extraordinary, such carving, in the eyes of connoisseurs, it is easy to see what genre it belongs to.

Therefore, after Han Peacock found out that the old man's craftsmanship was superb, he had the intention of collecting him, and recruiting an elderly man would naturally be able to get a big boost, but the old man is likely to have apprentices and grandchildren, if so, buying such an old man is not a matter of collecting a craftsman, but a large group.

Tong guò talked, Han Peacock knew that the old man was really an ancestral craft, it turned out that their family belonged to a big family in Hetian, but in modern times, it was more unlucky, especially after the reform and opening up, jade resources were nationalized, and then they were controlled by some rising big families and underworld forces, and many of their original local families were severely hit.

Originally, carvers like them could still survive, after all, the craft was in the body, and they couldn't be hungry, but in recent years, jade carvings have been made by machines, so some traditional carvers have lost their way to survive, and the old people have offended people in their hometowns, so they will be so miserable.

Chatting with the old man thoroughly, Han Peacock's purpose has also been achieved, the old man has lived for so many years, he naturally has his own connections, and the carver that Han Peacock needs is really easy to find for the old man.

He really knows a lot of old craftsmen who are not famous, but have decades of carving experience, these people do not have much ability, they can't make a name for themselves, and their works can't be sold at a high price, so the cost of hiring them is high and the output is low, so they are unemployed.

There are a lot of people in such a group, but it is not easy to find them if they are not in the industry, of course, if you spend some effort, you can find some, but after all, it takes a lot of time, and Han Peacock doesn't have the time to do this.

Achieved the goal, arranged the grandfather and grandson, Han Peacock said goodbye and went upstairs, didn't see Qin Mingyue, Han Peacock was going to study the weird mirror he bought today.

Entering the room, Han Peacock carefully inspected the entire room to make sure that there were no cameras, then closed the curtains, and his whole body disappeared from the room and came to the space.

Han Peacock did not appear on the side of the bamboo building, but appeared near a small hill, stopping on a big tree with his eyes closed and recuperating Golden Eagle, feeling that Han Peacock came in, flapping its wings and flying to Han Peacock's arm.

Han Peacock fed it some beef, teased it a little, and then released it into the air, sat down under a tree, and began to study the mirror that he had harvested today.

This mirror doesn't look like anything, and during the day it's almost the same thing as the pile that has been corroded, and it can be a little unusual when put together, but now it's placed separately, and the edges are stained with rust, only the mirror in the middle, and you can see the blurred shadow, there's nothing special anymore, the whole image of a broken mirror.

But it was this terrible mirror, but it was the first time that Han Peacock had a wonderful feeling that was different from other things, and now that it was put in the space, that feeling became more and more intense.

Han Peacock wiped the mirror with his hand, and the blurred layer on it was rubbed off, revealing the smooth mirror inside.

With a move in his heart, Han Peacock's figure immediately appeared at the place of the space spiritual spring, came to the edge of the spring, and dialed some spring water to the mirror, and a magical scene happened, only to see that the place where the spring water was cleaned, the rust on it quickly melted away as if spring snow met the sun.

Han Peacock was surprised, the space spring water still has such a magical effect? Or is there another reason?

Continuing to clean the entire mirror with spring water to restore the mirror to its original state, Han Peacock found that the longer it was placed in the spiritual spring, the faster the mirror would recover.

In the end, Han Peacock directly put the mirror in the spring water to soak, only to see that the mirror was surrounded by a piece of sunflowers, and the current mirror surface was as smooth as the current mirror, Han Peacock touched it with his hand, it was not glass, it was indeed copper.

Turned over and looked at the back, it was indeed more surprising, the back is not copper, it is an unknown thing, carved with a painting, the periphery of the painting is no longer sunflowers, but sunflower patterns, the center is four phoenixes clustered together, this is actually a bronze mirror with four phoenix bird patterns.

Han Peacock touched the back with his hand, and it turned out to be rare cold rather than warm.

Now this mirror is like a brand new one, and the heavy historical charm has been washed away with the space spring water. (To be continued......)
