Chapter 553
In order to prevent freezing, the reed head of the mallet has to shrink to the depth of the ground as it grows every year.
This contraction force is mainly borne by the shoulder of the main root of the mallet.
The mallets are old for at least 30 years, causing the main root to shrink and accumulate to form ring-shaped horizontal stripes.
Since the mallet has not moved in the original place, the ring-shaped horizontal stripes are thin, dense and deep, and the shrinkage of the main root is very prominent, which is also a basis for judging the age.
A mallet of more than a hundred years is rare!
Each one can be said to be the king of ginseng.
When Lu Lu dug it out, he was very excited. It would be a waste of money to sell this kind of thing at the buying station. In the eyes of a real expert, it can charge several times the price of the buying station. If it is used as a collection, As there are fewer and fewer real good mallets in later generations, they have been increasing in value.
This matter, the most famous one is probably the one in the Jilin Exhibition Hall of the Great Hall.
In 285, four mountain farmers found a seedling of large ginseng on the gentle slope of Dahei Mountain on the edge of Changbai Mountain in Fusong. Two for the treasure' standard.
Until now, in [-], there are still regulations: the wild ginseng purchased by township supply and marketing cooperatives must be sent to the county medicinal material company, and the wild ginseng purchased by the medicinal material company must be sent to the county foreign trade company for export. to be sold freely.
In other words, the mallet cannot be bought and sold freely.
If you want to sell at a high price, you have to go through special channels and contact rich people to sell. Once the news is released, it is a very dangerous thing, and if you sell it at a buying station, the price given is at most five or six thousand. ,the price is too low.
Although the purchasing power of the current money is super strong, if you put it in a pile of money, you will still have that little money in a few years.
The ginseng tree in the Jilin exhibition hall was sent to the purchase station at that time. It was obviously a top-notch commodity, so it was ordered as a second-class mountain ginseng, plus a dozen small commodities. The provincial government purchased it and adjusted it to the first level of wild ginseng, and at the same time reissued more than 600 yuan to four mountain farmers.
In other words, the ginseng tree that could be put on display in the Great Hall was only 2000 yuan at the time, but now, as long as the fifth-grade club is in good condition, it has already far exceeded this price. , prices rose rapidly.
The most amazing thing is that the place where the ginseng tree grows is in the forest three or four meters away from the mountain path where people come and go. After so many years, no one has discovered it.
Compared with this, Lu Lu suddenly felt that in a mountain like Guokui Mountain, which can not be regarded as a deep mountain, where there are so many gang members, it seems that it is not surprising to find a top-notch sixth-grade leaf.
Several people stared at the mallet for a long time, and Zhang Shaofeng sighed slightly: "It has grown for more than 140 years, and it has only grown so small... Sigh!"
Lu Lu stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "This mallet is definitely at the level of eight taels of treasure. Don't look at it, it's not easy. Do you think it's a big turnip? The real wild ginseng , the weight gain is quite slow, unlike the artificially planted ones, which grow big in a few years, during the process, it can be said to be close to death."
"Near death?" Chen Xiuqing muttered in a low voice, very puzzled: "This grows under the soil, after all, it's just a herb."
"That's the magic of the mallet."
Lu Lu said with a smile: "They grow in the mountains and have to withstand freezing, heavy rain, and pests and diseases. During the long years of growth, they often encounter disasters such as insect bites and rat bites, or being trampled and disabled by wild animals. Years do not germinate and go dormant.
After staying in the ground for a few years, it breaks the ground and sprouts long stems and leaves. At that time, the number of leaves is less, and it will change from the original fifth-rank leaves and sixth-rank leaves to second-grade leaves, and reincarnate.
During the dormancy process, to maintain survival or repair damage, but also to absorb the energy accumulated by itself, the mallet will become smaller.This is not going through all kinds of hardships, what is a narrow escape?
This is why when we lift the stick, Erjiazi and Dengtaizi cannot be let go, and it is also the reason why people say that the stick has a spirit and will escape. "
When Lu Lu said this, he glanced at several people, and emphasized: "This matter must be taken seriously, because even if it is an Erjiazi tree, there may be a rare big one underneath, so you can't miss it. Be careful, don't be reckless."
After listening to them, they all knew that Lu Lu was teaching skills and knowledge, and they were studying very hard, so they all nodded seriously: "Remember!"
"So, let's go back and look for that place. We were in a hurry at the time." Liang Kangbo thought for a while and said, "This is a piece of land. We didn't even find a big piece of land. I didn't find the place where those guys were killed..."
"When I lifted the sixth-grade club, my first thought was to leave quickly and protect the things. The less people know the better, but I was pestered by those Koreans. I didn't see them and wanted to kill them. Are there any of our people? So many people have died now, we have to wait until things are cold, and we will go and see when we are ready to go back!"
Lu Lu took a deep breath: "I have always said that I must control my gun, but I never thought that when I behaved peacefully, some restless people would come to me..."
Zhang Shaofeng also sighed: "It's because they don't obey the rules, they insist on looking for trouble."
"They asked for it!" Liang Kangbo was also relieved now.
Zhao Yongke was very calm and said nothing, while Chen Xiuqing nodded slightly.
"After we go back, no one is allowed to mention this matter, as long as our brothers know about it, keep your mouth shut!" Zhang Shaofeng emphasized: "Even members of my own family can't talk about it."
If so many lives were killed all of a sudden, if you can't control your mouth and spread the word, isn't that causing trouble for yourself?Several people nodded silently.
"The reason why the mallet can grow so big is very rare, and there are other reasons."
Lu Lu paused for a moment, and then said: "Winter in the Great Wilderness is too long. In a year, six, seven, eight and three months are the peak growing seasons. The first frost begins in mid-September and ends in mid-May of the next year. The dormancy period is as long as 240 days, and it is not bad if the mallet grows one gram per year."
"Didn't you say that this mallet weighs more than half a catty before? It's more than 250 grams, so it can't grow for hundreds of years?" Chen Xiuqing asked stupidly.
"Listen to me...the weight gain of the mallet is very slow in the early stage of growth, with a weight gain of about half a gram per year. In the first few years, there will be negative growth, because many nutrients are still insufficient for the growth of stems and leaves. If the forest land is thin and fertile, it may even take 30 years to grow to about five grams, which is the size of a penny, and then enter the middle stage.
In the mid-term, it grows faster. Because the stems and leaves are thicker, the ability to absorb nutrients becomes stronger. At this time, it can grow to about two grams a year, and it will grow for about ten years, and it will enter the later stage.
By this time, the roots of the mallet have grown and began to shrink completely, or have been damaged, and the nutrient delivery will slow down again, and the weight gain will almost maintain at one gram a year in the future.
The place where our mallet is located is not bad, the soil is fertile and deep, and the reed heads, roots, etc. have not suffered any damage, so it can grow so big, try another place, but it may not be possible! "
Lu Lu explained patiently: "You know how rare it is to be able to grow so big!"
This knowledge is more based on his accumulated experience in collecting mountain goods in his previous life, and Jiang Zewei didn't have so much research there.
After so many years, it can be said that the club has truly absorbed the essence of the world, the sun and the moon, and continuously concentrated it.
Some people say that the stick will become lignified when it grows to a certain age, and it is pure nonsense to compete with such treasures with artificially planted garden ginseng or under-forest ginseng.
Among other things, there are so many rich people who are willing to spend millions of dollars to buy, they are not fools.
After laying the groundwork for so long, Lu Lu took the opportunity to get to the point: "I want to discuss with my brothers, I plan to keep this club and not sell it."
Several people were slightly taken aback, then laughed.
"If you want to keep it, you can keep it, what is there to discuss?" Zhang Shaofeng said immediately.
"If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to find these things! You can keep them to yourself!" Liang Kangbo also said.
Zhao Yongke simply said four words: "I have no objection!"
As for Chen Xiuqing, she smiled foolishly: "You're a smart guy. You found all the big stuff you've been looking for these days. Even if it's a reward, you deserve more."
However, Lu Lu shook his head slightly: "It's still the same sentence, our brothers settle accounts clearly, and there are some things that need to be explained. Participating in the mountains to carry the club, it is a whole, there is no distinction between high and low, but why did it stand up? The rule of equal division, to put it bluntly, is because the club is precious and avoids vendetta. We all understand this thing, and it is the way of survival for the mountain people.
What I said is a bit out of line, but things still have to be done clearly and honestly, so as not to affect the relationship between us brothers in the future.
This mallet is not easy, there are three ways to sell it.The first one is to send it to the purchase station according to the regulations, but the price will not be too high.
But this kind of high-grade mallet is not allowed to be freely traded, so if you want to sell it at a good price, you can only use another method. In some old Chinese medicine stores, people often entrust them to buy it. You can find such old Chinese medicine or It is the middleman who conducts the valuation, which is the second method.
The third way is to take a mallet to Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, where there are many rich people, to find buyers and negotiate prices face to face.
Here, the first method will definitely not work. The third method has to travel long distances. Not to mention the danger, it may not be able to sell at a good price. That is the second method. Although there are certain risks, the price given , is currently the most appropriate.
So, when we go back this time, when we pass through the big city of Harbin, let's go there and find out the price. Everyone thinks the price is right, so we will convert it according to this price, and I will give you the money.Let's also sell those fifth-grade and fourth-grade sticks by the way.What do you think? "
Speaking of this, how could a few people not understand what Lu Lu meant.
Although the words do not sound very pleasant to the ear, it is indeed such a rationale.
And this is also the reason why Lu Lu hesitated when Zhao Tuanqing proposed to let some people become sworn brothers, while the others were active.
He knows very well that in the face of financial interests, many times, such a sworn bond is as fragile as a piece of paper, which can be broken with a poke, so he feels it is unnecessary.
"We are sworn brothers!"
Zhang Shaofeng obviously didn't think so, and was slightly disappointed: "Is it necessary to distinguish so clearly?"
Liang Kangbo also sighed: "Brother, let me just say one thing, without you leading us, we don't even know where there is a mallet, and we can only scurry around in the mountains. , You can’t even smell the fart of the stick. No matter how good this stick is, can it be better than our brotherhood? In fact, we have been taking advantage of you. You should keep this stick, including in the future, when you see what you want to keep, I have no opinion at all, that's what you deserve."
"If you have to do this calculation, let's not talk about equal shares or non-equal shares. Just divide according to the method that when the mountain driving team was established, you took three shares and each of us took one share..." Zhao Yongke said suddenly.
As Lu Lv's eldest uncle, Chen Xiuqing wisely chose to remain silent at this time.
Lu Lu looked at the three of them, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help twitching a few times: "Third brother, that's a hunting assignment, not a mountain release! Besides, those Erjiazi and lampstands are all mine, I can already get a lot more !"
In this way, Lu Lu will only get more points!
"Is there any difference? They are all making money on the mountain!" Zhang Shaofeng also said: "Just according to what the third brother said! As for those second-jiazi and lampstands, how many trees can't match a fourth-grade tree? What a fuss."
Seeing that each of them looked a little angry, Lu Lu didn't have a good solution. If they were divided according to what they said, they would only get less.
He finally said helplessly: "I will keep this club, let's share it equally!"
"That's what it sounds like!"
Several people laughed.
Zhang Shaofeng followed up and said: "I have a suggestion, in the future when you carry the club, the best club will go to the fifth younger brother, and the rest will be shared equally, what do you think!"
"No comment!" Liang Kangbo nodded first.
Zhao Yongke smiled and said, "Agreed!"
Chen Xiuqing smirked: "Then I have no objection!"
They all know that Lu Lu is the real treasure!
