Punch: From third-rate anchor to top chef

Chapter 358

The warehouse in the backyard is ten times larger than the one in front.

Metal floors, metal walls, and a dozen cameras with red lights flashing on the ceiling.

The moment Li Xiao really walked into the warehouse, a familiar feeling came to mind.

But before he had too much reverie, he realized that it wasn't that he had been to this warehouse before.

Rather, this scene is the warehouse where important items are stored in those sci-fi blockbusters.

I heard the old man show off heartily:

"My warehouse is not bad, but it is designed according to the vault of 007."

"The design fee and decoration fee alone cost me more than 30 yuan."

"This 360-degree camera monitors, as long as there is a problem, call the police immediately."

"The floors and ceilings are reinforced, and the ventilation system is such that not even a mouse can crawl in."

···········
Li Xiao resisted the urge to roll her eyes with strong willpower, and showed a polite and graceful smile.

The audience in the live broadcast room didn't have too many scruples, and they all laughed when they heard the old man's words.

"This old man is fashionable enough, still watching 007?"

"I'm laughing at this old man, dressed in such a Chinese style, I didn't expect to be a foreign movie fan?"

"Isn't this too exaggerated? A little tea and tangerine peel should be protected by a vault worth hundreds of thousands?"

"This is the so-called figurine lover, right? Our figurines are plastic toys worth a few hundred yuan, and others' figurines are hundreds of thousands of 007 vaults?"

···········
But the audience couldn't laugh very quickly, because as Li Xiao followed the old man into the warehouse, the old man began to introduce the value of the items in the warehouse.

Everyone in the audience shut their mouths and dared not speak.

The old man took Li Xiao straight to the shelf in the middle, and pointed to the tangerine peel in rattan boxes on the shelf:
"This is a good thing, 30-year-old tangerine peel, are you interested in taking a look?"

"30-year-old tangerine peel? Fidelity?"

Hearing Li Xiao's last two words, the old man seemed to feel humiliated.

He blew his beard and stared at his warehouse, and said confidently:
"In this warehouse, if you find a fake product with the wrong year, I will give you a 9% discount on today's deal!"

Hearing what the old man said, Li Xiao was taken aback. This 9% discount doesn't sound like much, but he couldn't bear the fact that the amount of the transaction between the two parties was large enough.

The transaction of tangerine peel alone is as high as 400 million.

This is not counting the 13 small green oranges. Even if the price of small green oranges is not high, 10 yuan a piece costs 130 million.

In other words, their total transaction amount this time reached 530 million, and if they really discounted by 9, that would be 477 million, a full 53 less.

Li Xiao was a little moved, thinking about going to see if there might be some fish that slipped through the net, but felt that such a move seemed a little rude.

Seeing Li Xiao eager to try, the old man shook his head and chuckled:

"Don't worry, I'll take you there slowly, you can get started with everything, you can see if I'm bragging or real, haha."

"Look at it with confidence, I also hope that you can help me find the fake."

"You help me find fakes, and I'll give you a [-]% discount, absolutely unambiguous."

"If you pay less, I will also screen my purchase channels."

"After all, people are old now, and their energy is not as good as before. There is no way to inspect the goods one by one."

After listening to the old man's explanation, Li Xiao was really moved. No one would be happy to pick up 53 for nothing.

"really?"

The old man is also straightforward, raising his wrinkled hands:
"Come on, high five, isn't there tens of thousands of people in your live broadcast room?"

"They came to testify, and I, Zhang Haoquan, keep my word and say what I say!"

Seeing that the old people raised their palms, Li Xiao also put away his contempt. He also raised his palms and said:

"It's hard to chase a horse."

After the words fell, the clapping of palms gave out crisp applause.

Li Xiao put away his joking expression and became serious.

Although he doesn't know much about tea, it doesn't prevent him from having a deep understanding of tangerine peel.

After all, the skills he just acquired are quite good at appraising tangerine peel.

So he reminded

"Old man, I don't know much about tea, and I won't buy tea this time, you just need to show me the tangerine peel."

"Oh."

The old man raised his eyebrows, nodded and said:
"From what you said, it means that you don't know much about tea, but you know a lot about tangerine peel?"

Li Xiao nodded and said confidently:

"I don't really understand it, just a little bit."

The old man stretched out his fingers and pointed in the void, and said tsk tsk in his mouth:

"You kid, do you think I'm an old antique? I still understand a little, and I seem to be very confident. Come on, let me show you something good."

While talking non-stop, he opened the rattan box in front of him.

As the box is opened, the air inside the box re-circulates.

A restrained scent of tangerine peel leaked out from the box.

Li Xiao closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The smell of tangerine peel was very light, and together with the fragrance of tangerine peel, there was also a faint smell of pine wood.

As I said before, tangerine peel is most afraid of moisture. Once it is wet, even after drying, the quality will be greatly affected.

Therefore, the place where the tangerine peel is stored must be kept dry and dry.

However, it is well known that the climate in the south is generally hot and humid.

Even with a good ventilation system, there is often no way to ensure the environment inside the storage space.

Therefore, various desiccants have been derived, both chemical and physical.

And these round pine balls in front of you are obviously natural physical dehumidifiers.

The pine wood itself has no irritating smell, and the structure of this special pine wood is very sparse, which can easily lock the moisture in the air in the ball.

As long as the pine balls are replaced regularly, the dryness of the storage space can be kept stably.

However, the price of these pine balls is not low, and they should be replaced every 9 to 10 months, otherwise they will become a source of moisture.

If it is not used to store some valuable items, it is not worth using relatively expensive pine balls.

Just use some quicklime, iron powder or other synthetic chemical reagents.

However, such things are obviously not suitable for use on the relatively expensive tangerine peel.

The old man handed over a pair of white gloves, the kind of white gloves used for viewing antiques.

Li Xiao took the white gloves and put them on.

Studio.

"I'm going, why do you suddenly feel professional?"

"Laughing to be wearing white gloves? Are these things expensive?"

"Expensive is a relative term. The 30-year-old tangerine peel is not very expensive. Last time I heard from my dad, it was only 20 a catty."

"???"

"!!!"

"Really or fake 20 a catty? Liar!"

"Now the price of gold is only 350 a gram, and a catty of gold is only 17.5. Is this tangerine peel more expensive than gold?"

"It must be hype, right?"

········
When the audience in the live broadcast room were discussing, Li Xiao had already picked up a piece of 30-year-old tangerine peel.

The appearance of this tangerine peel is very good, and it can be seen that it has been carefully preserved.

There is nothing wrong with the color of the tangerine peel. According to Li Xiao's experience, it is 100% unworn and dyed.

Put it in front of the nose and stir gently with your hands, a faint tangerine peel rushes into the nose.

Elegant and rich, the fruity aroma is very light, but the medicinal smell is very strong.

The 30-year-old tangerine peel has been out of the scope of ingredients and has entered the ranks of medicinal materials.

There is no smell of any chemical components on the tangerine peel, even because it has been placed with pine wood for a long time, it also has a faint pine smell.

However, this pine smell does not affect the aroma of tangerine peel, but makes his aroma more intense.
