The warehouse in the backyard is ten times larger than the one in front.
There are metal floors, metal walls, and dozens of cameras with red lights on the ceiling.
The moment Li Xiao actually walked into the warehouse, a familiar feeling came to his mind.
But before he had too much reverie, he understood that it was not that he had been to this warehouse before.
But this scene is exactly the warehouse where important items are stored in those science fiction blockbusters.
Just listen to the old man showing off cheerfully:
"My warehouse is pretty good, but it's designed after the 007 family's vault."
"The design and decoration fees alone cost me more than 300,000 yuan."
"With this 360-degree camera surveillance, we will call the police immediately if there is a problem."
"The floors and ceilings have been reinforced, and the exhaust system is such that not even a mouse can crawl in."
··········
Li Xiao used her strong willpower to resist the urge to roll her eyes and showed a polite and graceful smile.
The audience in the live broadcast room didn't have too many scruples, and everyone burst into laughter when they heard the old man's words.
"This old man is so fashionable. He still watches 007?"
"I'm laughing so hard at this old man. He's dressed in such a Chinese style, but I didn't expect him to be a fan of foreign movies?"
"Isn't this too exaggerated? A few tea leaves and tangerine peel need to be protected by a vault worth hundreds of thousands?"
"Are these the so-called figurine enthusiasts? Our figurines are plastic toys worth a few hundred yuan, while other people's figurines are 007-style vaults worth hundreds of thousands?"
··········
However, the audience soon stopped laughing, 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.
One by one, the audience closed their mouths and did not dare to speak.
The old man took Li Xiao directly to the middle shelf and pointed to the tangerine peels packed in rattan boxes on the shelf:
"This is good stuff, 30-year-old tangerine peel. Are you interested in taking a look?"
"30-year-old tangerine peel? Authenticity?"
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 of the wrong year, I will give you a 10% discount on today's transaction!"
Li Xiao was startled when he heard the old man's words. The 10% discount didn't sound like much, but the amount of the transaction between the two parties was large enough.
The transaction amount of tangerine peel alone is as high as 4 million.
This does not include the 130,000 small green oranges. Even if the price of small green oranges is not high, 10 yuan each costs 1.3 million.
In other words, their total transaction amount this time reached 5.3 million. With a 10% discount, it would be 4.77 million, a full 530,000 less.
Li Xiao was a little moved, thinking about going to see if there might be some fish that slipped through the net, but he felt that such a move seemed a bit rude.
Seeing Li Xiao's eagerness to try, the old man shook his head and chuckled:
"Don't be hasty, don't be hasty, I'll take you there slowly and you can get started with everything. You can see if I'm bragging or if I'm really awesome, haha."
"Don't worry, I hope you can help me find the fakes."
"If you help me find fakes, I'll give you a 10% discount, absolutely unambiguous."
"You pay less, and I will screen my purchase channels."
"After all, people are getting older now and their energy is not as good as before, so there is no way to inspect the goods one by one."
After listening to the old man's explanation, Li Xiao was really moved. Who wouldn't be willing to pick up 530,000 yuan for free?
"really?"
The old man was also straightforward and raised his wrinkled hands:
"Come on, give me a high five. Aren't there hundreds of thousands of people in your live broadcast room?"
"They came to testify. I, Zhang Haoquan, keep my word and I mean it!"
When Li Xiao saw the old people raising their palms, he also put away his contempt, raised his palms as well, and said:
"It's hard to chase a horse."
After the words fell, there was a crisp round of applause with both hands clapping together.
Li Xiao put away his joking expression and became serious.
Although he didn't know much about tea, it didn't stop him from having a deep understanding of tangerine peel.
After all, the skill I just acquired is quite good at identifying tangerine peel.
So he opened his mouth to remind
"Old sir, I don't know much about tea, and I won't buy tea this time. You just need to take me to see the tangerine peel."
"oh."
The old man raised his eyebrows, nodded and said:
"What you say means 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, I just understand it a little bit."
The old man stretched out his finger and pointed in the void, and said:
"Do you think I'm an antique? I still understand a little bit, and I seem to be very confident. Come on, I'll show you something good."
As he spoke, he kept moving his hands and opened the rattan box in front of him.
As the box is opened, the air inside the box begins to flow again.
A restrained scent of tangerine peel came out of the box.
Li Xiao closed his eyes and took a deep breath. The smell of tangerine peel was very light. Along with the fragrance of tangerine peel, there was also a faint smell of pine wood.
As mentioned before, tangerine peel is most afraid of moisture. Once it gets wet, the quality will be greatly affected even after it is dried.
Therefore, the place where tangerine peel is stored must be kept dry.
However, it is well known that the climate in the south is generally hot and humid.
Even if there is a good ventilation system, there is often no way to ensure the environment inside the storage space.
Therefore, a variety of desiccants have been derived, both chemical and physical.
And these round pine balls in front of you are obviously natural physical dehumidifiers.
Pine wood itself has no pungent smell, and the structure of this special pine wood is very sparse, making it easy to lock moisture in the air inside the sphere.
As long as the pine balls are replaced regularly, the dryness of the storage space can be stably maintained.
However, the price of these pine wood balls is not cheap. 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 a thing is 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.
"Let me go, why do you feel so professional all of a sudden?"
"It's so funny that you actually put on white gloves? Is this expensive?"
"Expensive is a relative term. The 30-year-old tangerine peel is not very expensive. Last time I heard from my dad, it only cost 200,000 yuan per catty."
"???"
"!!!"
"It's really 200,000 yuan per catty? It's a lie!"
"The current price of gold is only 350 per gram, and a pound of gold is only 175,000. Is this tangerine peel more expensive than gold?"
"This must be hype, right?"
·········
While the audience in the live broadcast room was talking a lot, Li Xiao had already picked up a piece of 30-year-old tangerine peel.
The quality of this piece of tangerine peel is very good, and you can tell at a glance that it was carefully preserved.
There is nothing wrong with the color of the tangerine peel. According to Li Xiao’s experience, it is 100% not aged or dyed.
Place it in front of your nose and gently stir it up with your hands, a light stream of tangerine peel will flow into your nose.
It is elegant and fragrant, with a light fruity aroma but a strong medicinal flavor.
The 30-year-old tangerine peel has left the scope of food and entered the ranks of medicinal materials.
There is no chemical smell in the tangerine peel, and it even has a light pine smell because it has been kept with pine wood for a long time.
However, this pine wood flavor does not affect the aroma of tangerine peel, but makes its aroma more intense.
