Fan Ming held it in his hand and put it under his nose and exclaimed in surprise: "Brother, there is a fragrance!" He slapped his hand in front of his nose, showing a respectful and insensitive look.

Phoebe has a fragrance of nanmu. Ancient books record that it is invulnerable to insects. Gold nanmu cabinets can store clothes, books, calligraphy and paintings to avoid insects. Modern experiments have proved that golden nanmu is anti-corrosion, anti-bacterial, termite erosion, and anti-corrosion by marine wood-boring animals. It is also strong, so the royal bookcase and bookcase are made of gold silk nanmu.But it should be insects and ants who hate these fragrances. I don’t know why Wukong resists it.

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "It does have a fragrance. According to "Bogu Yaolan", there are three kinds of nanmu: one is fragrant nanmu, the wood is slightly purple and has a delicate fragrance, and the texture is also very beautiful; the other is golden nanmu, which has golden threads in the wood grain. , is the best kind of nanmu, and what is even more rare is that some nanmu materials form natural landscape and figure patterns; the third is water nanmu, which is softer in wood and is often used to make furniture. Ancient feudal emperors and dragon chairs and thrones were all used Made of high-quality golden nanmu, it is also a special material for building royal palaces, mausoleums, gardens, etc. in ancient times. This tree species has been rare since the Qing Dynasty.”

Fan Ming looked at the sliced ​​nanmu with yellow and light green patterns in his hand, and asked a little strangely: "Then I asked my brother, is this fragrant nanmu or golden silk nanmu?"

Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "It can be said to be neither or both. This is Jinsixiangnan, which combines the characteristics of golden nanmu and fragrant nanmu. It is more valuable than the former two."

"Then what can this tree be used for?" Fan Ming asked after smelling the scent of nanmu in his hand, and looking at the huge trunk.

Zhang Taiping smiled and said: "There are many things that can be done. Golden nanmu is stable, not warped or cracked, and durable; moreover, it is mild in nature, warm in winter and cool in summer, and has a fresh and pleasant fragrance. Therefore, in history, golden nanmu Silk nanmu is specially used in the buildings and furniture of royal palaces and a few temples. The ancient feudal emperors' dragon chairs and thrones must also be made of high-quality nanmu. If someone uses it without authorization, he will be convicted for exceeding the ritual system. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that 'water cannot be soaked, and ants cannot burrow', and it can be buried in the ground for thousands of years without rot, so the coffins of emperors are mostly made of golden nanmu."

Fan Ming stuck out his tongue and said, "If it's as good as the elder brother said, it would be a pity to use it as a coffin."

Zhang Taiping shook his head and said: "Ancient emperors must do well no matter what they do, and it is only natural to use this as a coffin."

"Then how much is such a tree worth if you sell it?" Fan Ming asked.

Zhang Taiping looked around the tree again and said: "Well, such a big tree is really difficult to estimate."

He was telling the truth. In recent years, golden nanmu has begun to reappear in the arena, and quickly occupied the top spot in the market. There is a saying in the world: Huanghuali has a brilliant curtain call, and the king of golden nanmu returns.The price of golden nanmu furniture reappearing in the market is almost one price per day.

Golden nanmu is a precious wood unique to our country. It is a national second-class protected plant. It was on the verge of extinction at the end of the Ming Dynasty. In the early years of Kangxi, officials were also sent to the southern provinces to purchase nanmu. This move was too extravagant, costing people and money, and not benefiting state affairs, so Manzhou yellow pine was used instead, and many wooden pillars in the hall were outsourced and spliced ​​with nanmu.

Moreover, it grows slowly, and its growth law is late blooming (the golden stage of vigorous growth takes 6090 years), and it takes hundreds of years to become a pillar material.

To sum up, as a representative of Chinese classical cultural treasures, the furniture and wood carvings made of nanmu wood must have great potential for appreciation due to its high ornamental value, extremely rare quantity and excellent quality.

Therefore, it is impossible to estimate how many things such a large tree can make, so it is impossible to estimate the current price.

Speaking of this, Zhang Taiping put Yaya on his shoulder and said, "Let's go, let's go to the village chief's house."

"Brother wants to tell the old village head about this?" Fan Ming asked.

Zhang Taiping nodded and said: "Yes, such a big treasure cannot be occupied by one person, it can only become the public property of the whole village."

Fan Ming nodded.

When they arrived at the old village head's house, they were preparing to eat, Zhang Taiping said with a smile: "Old man, did you eat so early today?"

The old village head said: "Looking at the weather today, we can't do anything. We have eaten and rested earlier."

Zhang Taiping saw that the old aunt was going to get the bowls and chopsticks again, so he hurriedly said: "Auntie, don't worry about it, I came here to talk to the old uncle, after I finished speaking, I went back, and the food in the house is ready."

"Is there really something wrong?" the old village chief asked.

Zhang Taiping nodded and smiled, "A happy event."

"Okay, let's go, let's talk about it after entering the base."

Zhang Taiping put Yaya down, entered the room with the old village chief and Wang Gui, and Fan Ming also followed.

"What happy event?" The old village head entered the room and gave Zhang Taiping a cigarette, but he lit the dry cigarette and asked.

Zhang Taiping took the piece of wood from Fan Ming, showed it in front of the father and son and asked, "Old man, do you know what kind of wood this is?"

The old village chief looked at the wood in Zhang Taiping's hand and shook his head in doubt.However, Wang Gui's eyes lit up, he took the nanmu from Zhang Taiping's hand, put it under his nose and sniffed it, his expression became more excited.It's reasonable for him to know this. In which line of work he did before, he saw a coffin in a cemetery. The corpses inside were only bones, but the coffin was intact. He knew it was a coffin. Golden nanmu.

After calming down, Wang Gui asked, "Is this golden nanmu?"

Zhang Taiping nodded: "Golden nanmu!"

"It looks like it was freshly cut down, so there is golden nanmu nearby?" Wang Gui asked.

"Not bad!" Zhang Taiping gave an affirmative answer.

The old village chief took the dry cigarette holder out of his mouth and said, "Golden silk nanmu? What can you do?"

Before Zhang Taiping could answer, Wang Gui said, "Da, if there is nanmu near the village, it will be a big deal." The previous generation also called his father "Da".

Although the old village chief had heard that nanmu was rare, he didn't know the specific value of nanmu, so he frowned slightly and said, "Why is it so unreasonable?"

Wang Gui introduced: "In an exhibition of art treasures at the Wangfujing Art Museum, a pair of golden nan's top box cabinets were priced at more than 300 million yuan, a set of jinsinnan screens was priced at more than 100 million yuan, and a golden nannan's screen was priced at more than 70 million yuan. The Luohan bed is priced at 880 yuan, which is several times the price of similar red rosewood products, and can even be compared with similar products of huanghuali. For a time, it was widely rumored in the capital that Jinsinan will be another extreme after Hainan huanghuali. Valuable and precious wood. A collector’s set of [-] pieces of Jinshen furniture is priced at [-] million, which makes ordinary people daunting. A businessman occasionally gets a little Jinshen material and makes it into an official suitcase, which is exported to Taiwan. Selling tens of thousands of yuan, the price is much higher than similar products of red sandalwood and huanghuali. Because of its rarity, the price of Jinsinan’s bracelets is about [-] yuan, while the similar red sandalwood and huanghuali bracelets are only about [-] yuan.”

Wang Gui gave a series of examples about the value of golden nanmu. Although the old village chief didn't know where Wangfujing was, he understood that this golden nanmu was very valuable.In a word, it is worth the money!

The old village head was a little excited after hearing so much, but soon calmed down and asked, "Marshal, what do you mean?"

Zhang Taiping said: "Now there is a huge golden nanmu tree in our village, it can be regarded as public property."

"Our village? Where is it!" Hearing what Zhang Taiping said, the old village chief got really excited.

"It's the old dead tree on the west side of the village that was struck by lightning today!"

"That big dead tree?" The old village head and Wang Gui looked at each other in disbelief.

After a while, Wang Gui patted his thigh and said, "Oh! I should have thought of it a long time ago. It is very unusual for a dead tree to not rot for decades. It is actually dark under the lamp!"

The old village chief also came to his senses: "Yes, that tree was struck to death by lightning when I was a child. It has been more than 40 years, let alone now, and it has remained the same!"

Zhang Taiping said: "I was awakened by the old man when I mentioned it today."

"Go! Hurry up and have a look!" The old village head walked out, Zhang Taiping and Wang Gui followed.

"Why are you leaving again? Do you have something to do after dinner!" The old aunt shouted after seeing the old village chief walking towards the outside in a hurry.

"Don't eat!" The old village chief shouted excitedly, waving his hands back.

After five people, big and small, came to the tree, the old village chief and Wang Gui watched carefully in front of the tree.

It took a while for Wang Gui to speak: "It is indeed golden nanmu!"

The old village chief took a puff of dry tobacco and asked, "Does the commander know how much such a tree is worth?"

Zhang Taiping couldn't figure it out by himself, so he looked at Wang Gui.

Wang Gui smacked his lips and thought for a while and said, "At least it can be worth 1000 million!"

"Cough. Cough. How much? Cough. Cough." The old village chief choked on the smoke he was sucking in after hearing the number, and almost roared out the two words.

"1000 million!" Wang Gui said again.

This time the old village chief didn't doubt his ears anymore, he stepped forward to touch the tree, and didn't know what kind of treasure he fantasized about this big tree, the expression on his face was very strange.

The others looked at each other, all a little worried.They didn't know that the old village chief was calculating now, that 1000 million points would go to 20 villagers' families, and each family could get 20! 20, [-]!Nen is more than enough to build a small two-story western-style building.The more he thought about it, the heavier the old village chief's breathing became.

Wang Gui frowned and shouted behind the old village chief, only then did the old village chief come back to his senses.

"I have to cut down the tree quickly, don't worry about putting it here." The old village head calmed down and said to the next year.

Zhang Taiping nodded. It didn't feel like putting it here when he didn't know it before, but now that he knows it, he feels a little worried about putting it here. This is human nature.

So he said: "Then hold a meeting tomorrow to explain to the villagers and then start felling."

"Well! Tomorrow." The old village chief said in a fixed tone.
