Chapter 233: Angong Niuhuang Pill
In the green brocade box on the edge of the bed, the white wax pills glow with gold in the sunlight.
Sun Yi looked at Chongning with a surprised face and asked, "Daning, what the hell is this?"
Chongning groaned and said, "This is the Angong Niuhuang Pill produced by Tongrentang in the early eighties."
Sun Yi raised his eyebrows and said, "So familiar?"
Chen Jinghan, who had not spoken beside him, said, "My cousin had a stroke a few days ago, and I bought this at the pharmacy, which works very well."
Sun Yi patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, yes, I bought the medicine online at that time, and I used a coupon, and the medicine was really expensive."
"No, I remember spending a thousand dollars less, but not tens of thousands!"
Chongning nodded, "The modern Angong Niuhuang Pill is generally eight or nine hundred yuan a pill."
Duan Jingzhi didn't quite understand and asked, "What's going on? There is so much difference between the old and the new?"
Chongning said, "Angong Niuhuang Pill, also known as the Soul Rejuvenation Pill, is a life-saving medicine. It is effective for stroke, convulsions, cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage."
"Basically, one pill can be dragged back from the ghost gate, and the effect is incomparable."
This is because of the special ingredients inside, such as rhinoceros horn, bezoar, musk, pearl and cinnabar.
But since '93, a ban has been issued on the use of rhino horn.
After that, the rhinoceros horn in the prescription was replaced with buffalo horn.
Natural bezoar and natural musk have also been changed to artificial bezoar and artificial musk.
Therefore, the difference between the pills produced now and the pills of the 80s is very different.
This is clearly reflected in the value.
In the spring auction of 16 years, ten Angong Niuhuang Pills were auctioned for 3.8 million, which is equivalent to 380,000 yuan.
At the time, I thought it was speculation, but then I saw that it was not, and the price has not been cheaper since then.
Rare is expensive, and it is a life-saving medicine, life is priceless, and the value of this miracle medicine is almost only high.
If Xuanzhen's piece is genuine, it will have to start at least 400,000.
He can take it for 20,000 yuan, which is definitely a big leak!
Xuan Zhen was triumphant, glanced at Sun Yi, and said defiantly, "I've seen it for a long time!"
Sun Yi rolled his eyes and said, "Even if the magic medicine is valuable, this one of yours may not be real!"
Xuan Zhen was very disdainful, "Dan Pill Herbs, can I still be wrong? If it's fake, I'll swallow it!"
Sun Yi didn't believe it, and said, "The surface of this pill has a layer of wax shell, and you don't have a perspective on it, how can you be so sure?"
Xuan Zhen snorted coldly and said, "The packaging is intact, and the surface of the wax shell also has a sense of age, it is indeed a complete set. You don't understand, I'm too lazy to take care of you!"
Just as the two were arguing, Chongning picked up the pill and quietly cast his hand with his back to everyone.
In its current state, he also considers it genuine.
After all, by all accounts, there are no flaws.
The packing brocade box, instruction manual and wax shell are all intact.
There is a difference between deliberately being aged and being naturally old.
Suddenly, Chongning's face was shocked, and Qianjinshou didn't react!
It's a fake!
No way?
Chongning hurriedly cast his golden hand again, but there was still no response.
He hurriedly lifted the pill to take a closer look, and there were three gold leafs on the surface of the wax pill.
Originally, I thought it was the exposed gold leaf of the pill body, but when I took a closer look, I found that it was the three gold leaf characters on the wax pill.
It's too old, and the gold dust has fallen off a bit, so it should be the words Angong bezoar.
Chongning stared at the wax pill, only to find that under the golden words, there were several small holes that were difficult to detect.
"It's true or not."
He felt it himself, and he was shocked.
Xuan Zhen's eyes were stunned, and his face was gloomy, "Daning, you can't just open your eyes and talk nonsense just to favor Sun Yi."
To say that this pill was fake, he would never believe it.
Sun Yi laughed and said, "Daning has been identified as fake, you still don't believe it?"
Xuan Zhen was obviously unhappy, and said with a straight face, "Where is this pill fake, you explain it to me clearly!"
Medicinal pills, that is Xuan Zhen's old business, if he is wrong, it will be a big shame.
Xuan Zhen is usually very arrogant, but he is also a person who wants to save face, and when he heard that Chongning was identified as fake, he immediately wanted to ask for an explanation!
The antique business is true and fake is fake.
Chongning took the pill, pointed to the gold leaf, and said, "Look at the bottom of this golden word, has it been manipulated?"
Xuan Zhen looked at it, disagreed, and said, "When the wax pill solidifies, there will be small bubbles, and it is normal for some small holes to appear after a long time."
At this time, his heart has already been recognized as true, and he directly ignores the flaws that appear.
This is also a common misunderstanding for many novices in the antique industry.
Chongning saw that he couldn't move, thought for a while, and said, "The truth is very simple, you open the wax pill, peel off the gold leaf, and it is clear at a glance."
Duan Jingzhi also agreed, "Anyway, you don't sell it, open it first." If that's fine, just seal it with wax."
Xuanzhen's elixir is basically for personal use, not for buying and selling for profit. Therefore, Chongning's suggestion is still feasible.
Xuan Zhen groaned, a little hesitant. z.br>
Sun Yi arched the fire next to him and teased, "What? Don't you dare?"
Xuan Zhen was so agitated that he snorted coldly and said, "What don't I dare."
As he spoke, he took the pill, and with a force of his fingers, the wax pill shattered directly.
Inside the wax pill, the golden one was a pill wrapped in gold leaf.
Angong bezoar pills are wax pills wrapped in gold leaf and then attached.
Such packaging can lock in volatile medicinal ingredients, prolong the life of the pill, and maintain the efficacy of the medicine for a long time.
Hyun Jin looked at the gold leaf, there was no big problem, and he was slightly relieved.
He carefully peeled back layer by layer, and the dark brown pill appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
At the same time, a strong smell of medicine spread.
Xuan Zhen's nose sniffed, and his face suddenly became ugly, "I'll go!" Fake!"
He knows all kinds of medicinal materials well, and he knows the authenticity of things as soon as he smells them.
As soon as the gold leaf was peeled off, Xuan Zhen realized that it was fake!
At this time, a dark cloud appeared on Xuan Zhen's face.
Sun Yi laughed next to him, "Haha, I'll just say it's fake! 20,000 yuan to buy a hawthorn pill!"
Xuan Zhen couldn't hold his face, so he directly picked up the brocade box and rushed out.
Chongning patted Sun Yi and whispered, "Don't gloat!"
The medicinal pill is a field that Xuan Zhen is proud of, and at this moment, he is annoyed and angry, and he has to go to the seller to theorize if he says anything.
The antique shop is looking for a back account, which is a taboo in the industry.
Insiders are all clear of money and goods.
As for the authenticity of things, whether they are eye-catching or leaking, each depends on their ability.
Xuan Zhen didn't listen to these old rules, and after discovering the fake, he went to the seller angrily.
Chongning couldn't hold him back, so he could only follow.
However, they had just walked out a short distance when they suddenly stopped!
