Chapter 229: Dragon Relic Pill
In a long glass box, a bottle of ginseng lay flat.
Duan Jingzhi took it and handed it to Chongning, and whispered, "Brother Ning, take a look."
Chongning opened the lid of the box and took out the ginseng.
The seller, a middle-aged man with a beard, looked at Chongning and said, "Authentic Changbai Mountain Wild Ginseng, one hundred and ten years old."
Chongning smiled and nodded, did not speak, and looked carefully.
The older the wild ginseng, the more precious it becomes, and the more old ginseng is more than 30 years old, and it can even hang the life of a dying person.
The identification of wild ginseng is also a science, focusing on seeing the five forms and recognizing the six bodies.
The five forms refer to the reed, the vessel, the pattern, the body, and the whisker.
The six bodies are spiritual, stupid, old, tender, horizontal, and smooth.
The main one is to look at the reeds and the reeds.
The head of the reed is the tip of the main body of ginseng, which is the same as the small head.
The round reed is the symbol of wild ginseng, and it has a horizontal finger length for 20 years.
It is an adventitious root on the head of a reed, which is curved, thin and round, similar to a human arm.
It is the key to identify ginseng, and the common ones are hairy, long, garlic and jujube.
There will be garlic cloves for more than 30 years, and jujube pits for more than 50 years.
The body shape and beard of this ginseng are free and natural, but it looks like wild ginseng.
The head of the reed is also round, more than a finger long.
The ginseng is slightly thicker, resembling the shape of a garlic clove, and is a distinct garlic clove.
The skin color, lines and ginseng whiskers are also vigorous and old.
Overall, it is a wild ginseng that is at least 30 years old.
Duan Jingzhi leaned over and asked, "Brother Ning, how is it?"
Ginseng is a precious medicinal herb that greatly replenishes vitality and is also the king of herbs.
Duan Jingzhi's father is seriously ill, and she wants to buy it to replenish his body and continue his life.
After all, old ginseng is becoming less and less, and it is very rare.
Hundreds of years of wild ginseng can be sold for two or three million at a market price.
Even with such a high price, it is still hard to find.
So when she saw this ginseng, she was more excited.
Chongning looked at the ginseng and relied on his own experience to discern it, and it didn't seem to be a big problem.
It's just that the ginseng age is not as old as the seller said, and thirty or forty years is possible.
He groaned and said, "There is a glance on the head of the reed and the color of the skin, but this ginseng is not like a hundred years."
He smiled, "At first glance, this little brother is an expert, this wild ginseng is indeed less than a hundred years, but there are thirty years."
"Look at how thick this ginseng is, how beautiful this body is, it's almost human."
It is called ginseng because of its almost humanoid shape.
Especially the old wild ginseng, the head of the reed is the head, the ginseng is like an arm, the main stem is the body, and the ginseng is bifurcated and thick like a leg.
Live is a mountain elf.
Therefore, there is a legend that some people participate in the ginseng circle.
The beard struck while the iron was hot, and said, "The goods are sold to know the family, and the little brother is also a knowledgeable person, and I will not bluff you in terms of price." Why don't you hold a hand?"
As he spoke, he smiled and stretched out his right hand.
Chongning is not completely sure of the authenticity of this ginseng, and the herbs are not too familiar.
He wanted to distinguish it with his golden hand, after all, this is a cure and a life-saving thing.
Xuan Zhen, who was squatting on the ground, suddenly said, "Fake things, whoever buys the mallet."
The beard was suddenly unhappy, and his face was gloomy, "This guy, do you not understand the rules, or do you want to make trouble?"
When dealing in antiques, it is extremely rude to tell a fake in person.
When you encounter a grumpy boss, you will even fight directly.
Xuan Zhen is a straight person, and he is not an antique dealer, so he doesn't care about these rules.
"Don't let people talk about fakes, the ginseng and ginseng are glued on, fooling fools."
At this time, Chongning picked up the ginseng and compared it to the sun, and sure enough, the above
There is a little shimmer, obviously a trace of gelatin.
Now you don't have to use your golden hand, ironclad fake.
The falsification of ginseng, that is strange, there are all kinds of ways.
Some hollow out the ginseng body, embed lead bars, sugar brine, etc., to increase the weight.
Some use sand cucumber and bellflower, which are disguised as real ginseng after processing.
The most difficult to distinguish is the use of real ginseng and the missing part, spliced together, this technique is called gold inlay jade inlay.
The parts of this type of fake ginseng are genuine, and then they are glued and formed with a secret glue.
The value of mutilated crushed ginseng and intact wild ginseng is worlds apart.
If it comes from a skilled counterfeiter, not a connoisseur, it is difficult to see the flaw.
The beard suddenly became angry, and directly snatched the object in Xuan Zhen's hand, "Don't look at it, my family doesn't do business with you."
With that, he pushed Hyun Zhen and drove him out of the room.
Xuan Zhen was very disdainful at the door, "Cut, there is no real thing, who rarely does business with you."
With that, he walked towards the other rooms.
This ginseng is obviously a fake ginseng, and there is no need for Chongning and Duan Jingzhi to stay, they are ready to leave.
The beard was a little unwilling, if it wasn't for Xuan Zhen's interruption just now, maybe it would have been a deal.
There are potential customers, and he doesn't want to let them go.
"Little brother, don't listen to that stinky Taoist priest's nonsense, he knows something. Ginseng doesn't like it, let's look at the others. I have a lot of natural treasures here."
The bearded man recommended with a smile, pulled the curtain, took a box, and said mysteriously, "Palace secret medicine, do you take a look?"
Chongning was going to leave, but the seller was mysterious and curious.
In fact, antique dealers like to create an atmosphere of mystery.
In the mysterious atmosphere, it tests the buyer's eyesight and also affects the buyer's psychology.
Duan Jingzhi was also very curious, and heard that there was a secret medicine, so she came over.
"What is this?"
I saw that in the small box was a pitch-black pill, oily and slippery, and a little bit of Venus, which looked very luxurious.
Afraid of being heard, he whispered, "Dragon Relic Pill."
Chongning smiled and said, "Dragon Relic Pill? Is there really such a thing?"
Duan Jingzhi had never heard of it before, and asked, "What is that?"
Hu Hu said: "This is a secret medicine of the palace, which can cure the disease and prolong life. In the Qing Dynasty, a dragon pill could be sold for five hundred taels of silver, and it was difficult to find a pill for dignitaries."
Hearing him say so mysterious and magical, Duan Jingzhi became interested and hurriedly looked at this inconspicuous black pill. Z.br>
"Brother Ning, it's really fake, does it work like this?"
"I've heard a few things that are made with fresh dragon relics, cinnabar and lilies, mixed with hawthorn and honey," Chongning said.
He smiled and said, "Little brother is really an expert, this Dragon Relic Pill can be regarded as meeting the Ming Lord!"
Duan Jingzhi was confused when she heard this, and asked curiously, "What kind of medicinal herb is that dragon relic?" How come I've never heard of it?"
Chongning suddenly couldn't hold it back, and laughed directly.
Duan Jingzhi was even more puzzled and asked, "What are you laughing at, what are you talking about, what is the dragon relic?"
