When you drive a sports car, put on a suit, hum a tune, and proudly bring a wild ginseng that costs hundreds of thousands to show off, suddenly someone tells you that the wild ginseng is fake, let alone tens of thousands.
It’s not worth ten thousand or ten thousand yuan. How would you react?
Yes, it will be difficult for you to accept it, and you may even become angry. Xu Mingjun is like this now. In shame and anger, he no longer cares about the demeanor of a child of aristocratic family, and repeatedly asked: "A few thousand yuan? Mr. Lin, do you understand?
?Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand. Pure wild ginseng from Changbai Mountain that is fifteen years old is only worth a few thousand yuan?”
Lin Hao said: "If it is really Changbai Mountain... well, no matter it is Jilin, Northeast, or Huicheng Duanhun Ridge, as long as it is really wild ginseng, if it lasts fifteen years, it can be worth two
30,000 yuan, but the problem is that it is not wild ginseng, it is just an artificially grown craft ginseng that looks like wild ginseng! If I say it is worth several thousand yuan, I am undoubtedly exaggerating!"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they all asked in confusion: "Craft ginseng?"
"That's right!" Lin Hao nodded and slowly explained: "Craft ginseng refers to artificial gluing, jointing, and special processing in the planting form to pass it off as wild ginseng or other valuable ginseng in order to achieve profit.
A kind of profiteering method, its method is tantamount to counterfeiting."
In order to save Xu Mingjun's face, Li Chen said: "As for wild ginseng, I have seen this one before. This one looks like a wild ginseng on the surface! It's no different from the ones I've seen before.
.”
Lin Hao said slowly: "The processing technology of craft ginseng has been around since ancient times, but because of its despicable behavior, which is mostly shamed by the industry, its whereabouts are extremely secretive and not known to outsiders. However, in modern times, due to huge profits,
According to the trend, traces of craft ginseng frequently appear in the wild ginseng market. However, because the wild ginseng industry has always been passed down by word of mouth, there is no absolutely professional and absolutely authoritative theoretical support, so the nature of the craft ginseng has been ambiguous for a long time. Don't say it.
It’s Uncle Li, even an expert would be able to spot him!”
Xu Mingjun sneered: "So, you are better than the experts? You can tell at a glance that it is a craft ginseng."
Li Hui obviously didn't care how much the ginseng was worth, whether it was wild ginseng or craft ginseng. He valued the knowledge here more, so he asked: "Yes, Lin Hao, how can you prove it?"
Lin Hao smiled and said: "Old man, I will give you popular science knowledge, but don't charge me for food!"
Li Hui smiled and nodded: "Deal!"
Lin Hao said: "There are many types of ginseng, and the classification is quite detailed. There are many different types. But generally speaking, some are named according to the cultivation method, such as wild ginseng, mountain ginseng, etc.; some are named according to the place of origin.
Some are named according to the processing method, such as Jilin ginseng, Liaoning ginseng, Shizhu ginseng, etc.; some are named according to the processing method, such as red ginseng, white sugar ginseng, raw sun-dried ginseng, etc.; there are also those that take both conditions into consideration, such as Korean red ginseng, Jilin wild ginseng, etc.
!The most precious among them is undoubtedly wild ginseng, because it grows in a natural environment, has a long growth life, low yield, and high medicinal value..."
"Dear!" Li Zifeng interrupted him impatiently: "Stop doing so much foreplay, I'm already high, let's get to the topic quickly, okay?"
Li Hui: "..."
Li Chen's face darkened, and he yelled at his stupid son: "Get out of here if you keep talking nonsense!"
Li Zihui hurriedly raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, and then said to Lin Hao: "You should tell me quickly!"
Lin Hao had no choice but to skip the foreplay, go straight to the subject, and said: "Wild ginseng is very characteristic. The main root is thick and short, and generally has two main branch roots. The reed is slender, about 2-8 years long.
Centimeter, slightly twisted and shaped like a wild goose's neck, commonly known as wild goose's neck reed! But although Xu Shao's ginseng is twisted, it is twisted very improperly!"
Li Hui asked doubtfully: "Isn't that serious?"
"Well, it means very abnormal and unnatural! These are often traces of artificial processing." Lin Hao continued: "In addition, its reeds have dense bowl-shaped scars, which are the reeds I just mentioned.
Bowl, if it is a thirty-year-old wild ginseng, the lower part of the reed bowl will gradually disappear as it grows, and the reed will be cylindrical, commonly known as round reed. But now it has obviously not disappeared. This illustrates two points. First, it has absolutely no three-dimensional reed.
Ten years. Two, it’s not wild ginseng.”
Li Hui looked at the ginseng plant carefully, nodded slightly and said, "What else is there?"
Lin Hao said: "Also, there are spindle-shaped adventitious roots growing on the reeds of wild ginseng, which are shaped like jujube pits and are commonly known as jujube pits. The top of the main root is wide and round, commonly known as broad shoulders. The skin is old and grayish-yellow, and the outer skin is tight and has longitudinal wrinkles.
, there are obvious and fine ring patterns on the upper part, commonly known as spiral patterns, the texture is solid, the fibrous roots are few and thin and long, mostly two to three times as long as the ginseng body, and there are often many small raised warts on it, commonly known as pearl bumps."
As he explained, everyone turned their eyes towards the wild ginseng, obviously trying to find the details Lin Hao said.
Lin Hao continued: "A real wild ginseng is old, has long reeds, a dense bowl, round reeds, a plump body, deep and dense spiral grains, jujube cores, pearl bumps, etc. These shape characteristics are
It is indispensable. But if you look at this ginseng, you will see that it does not have many of the characteristics that wild ginseng should have. What it shouldn’t have, it does. Looking at the whole ginseng, although it looks a bit like wild ginseng, it is just that.
It’s just a resemblance! So I’m sure that this is just artificially cultivated craft ginseng.”
After being educated by Lin Hao, everyone was undoubtedly in high spirits!
Xu Mingjun also completely understood that he had indeed been tricked, and the trick was not ordinary. However, his eyes looked at Lin Hao with resentment, as if the person who tricked him was Lin Hao.
Li Hui asked: "Is it what you just said to distinguish the authenticity and age of wild ginseng?"
Lin Hao shook his head, "The knowledge here is profound! If you want to identify wild ginseng, you must clearly see the five shapes and identify the six bodies."
Li Hui asked very eagerly: "What are the five shapes and what are the six bodies?"
Lin Hao said: "The five shapes refer to whiskers, reeds, skin, grain, and body! The six bodies refer to spirit, stupidity, oldness, tenderness, horizontality, and smoothness. Everything is extremely exquisite, and everything cannot be careless, so you really have to buy it.
Wild ginseng, especially old wild ginseng, in order to avoid being deceived, it’s better to find an expert!”
Li Hui nodded, looked at Xu Mingjun who was embarrassed and a little ashamed, and said: "No matter what, Xiaojun is interested!"
Li Chen also followed: "Yes, it doesn't matter whether the ginseng is wild or artificial, what matters is the intention!"
Xu Mingjun smiled casually and said, "I just treated it as paying tuition. It made everyone laugh!"
Lin Hao said seriously: "Master Xu, we won't laugh at you. The wild ginseng business is in deep water, and people who don't know the business can easily be deceived."
He undoubtedly meant well when he said this, but when it came to Xu Mingjun, it was extremely harsh, full of sarcasm, and extremely annoyed in his heart, so he asked: "Mr. Lin is right, but I don't know what you have prepared for Grandpa Li."
What's your intention?"
"Me?" Lin Hao was asked. He was just here to have a meal. Apart from an empty stomach, how could he prepare anything else?
"Yes, Mr. Lin, please take it out quickly and let us broaden our horizons!" Xu Mingjun said with a look of anticipation.
Li Bing knew that Lin Hao was completely unprepared and wanted to excuse him, but for a while he didn't know what to say!
"What?" Xu Mingjun saw Lin Hao standing there in a daze, so he bombarded him and said, "Mr. Lin must not have prepared anything!"
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Lin Hao felt that it was a rare opportunity and said in a daze: "This...that...is actually not unprepared."
Xu Mingjun sneered: "Then take it out and let me see it!"
Lin Hao felt a little reluctant, but he still took out a box from his pocket and handed it over.
"Chocolates?" Xu Mingjun took a look at the pattern on the box and almost burst out laughing, "Mr. Lin, aren't you? Are you giving chocolates to the old man?"
Li Hui was also somewhat dumbfounded. He was not a three-year-old child. He stopped eating high-calorie foods like chocolate decades ago.
Li Zifeng quickly grabbed the chocolate box and opened it. When he saw the contents inside, his expression suddenly brightened and he started counting, "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine...
"
Everyone couldn't help but look up and saw that the chocolate box contained something that seemed to be real chocolate, but it obviously didn't match the picture on the box. It was not round, but square and thin.
"Oh my god, it's a hundred yuan!" Li Zifeng quickly counted and said in surprise: "Lin Hao, you are not so generous!"
At first, everyone thought he was saying something sarcastic, but when they took a closer look at his expression, they felt it was different and became confused.
Li Zifeng picked up a piece of chocolate, stuffed it into his mouth, and said while eating: "Grandpa, do you know what this is?"
Xu Mingjun said disdainfully: "Isn't it just chocolate?"
"Chocolate? Have you ever eaten chocolate like this?" Li Zifeng snorted, picked up a piece and handed it over. He only handed it over halfway, thinking of its value, he quickly shrank back, "Forget it, you'd better not try it.
, this thing is too valuable!”
"..." Xu Mingjun's half-stretched hand stayed there.
At this time, Li Hui and Li Chen also realized that something was wrong, because they did not smell the fragrance of chocolate, but instead smelled the smell of traditional Chinese medicine.
Looking at Li Zifeng, who was full of food but full of praise, Li Hui couldn't help but asked: "Zifeng, what on earth is this?"
Li Zifeng said: "This is a medicinal cake made by Lin Hao himself. Don't look at it. It's just a small slice. It's expensive. One piece costs 10,000 yuan!"
Li Hui said in astonishment: "So expensive?"
"It's so expensive, but it's worth the money. It can remove toxins accumulated in the liver, gallbladder, spleen, kidney, intestines and stomach, etc., and at the same time, it can replenish qi and essence. Anyway, I have tried it before, and after taking it, I feel better.
, my feet are no longer soft, five times a night...anyway, it feels so good!" Li Zifeng realized that he had let something slip. He quickly stopped and changed his words: "There is one hundred yuan here, that's one hundred yuan.
Wan! In the past, I always thought Lin Hao was a stingy guy, but I didn’t expect him to be so generous today. Grandpa, you are quite proud!"
The more he heard what he said, the more distressed and regretful Lin Hao felt. When he saw him reaching out to grab the second piece, he finally couldn't bear it any longer and took the box back and stuffed it again.
Back in your pocket.
Everyone: "..."
Lin Hao smiled and said: "Well, I'm so sorry, I got the wrong one!"
Everyone was stunned: "Did you get the wrong one?"
Lin Hao nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I got it wrong!"
Li Zifeng said: "How could I get it wrong? Isn't this medicine very good? It's perfect for a birthday gift."
Lin Hao said: "This medicine is indeed very good, but it is more suitable for young adults. Middle-aged and elderly people like the old man, this is more suitable."
Everyone looked up and saw that he took out another bottle from his pocket and placed it on the table. When they saw the label clearly, they all stood there in shock.
Tianqi Dysmenorrhea Capsules, these six characters are clearly written on the label!!
Is this thing more suitable for Li Hui?
Li Hui has dysmenorrhea!!!???
I'm going for it!!!!!!!
You really got it wrong this time!
Seeing everyone staring blankly at the label of the medicine bottle on the table, Lin Hao realized something was wrong. He quickly reached out and tore off the label, and then calmly explained: "I made the medicine myself, because all the bottles prepared in advance were used."
When it was all gone, I temporarily found an empty bottle from Li Bing's room to put it in. The contents were pills, not capsules."
Everyone: "..."
"Cough!" Lin Hao cleared his throat and waved his hands: "The appearance is just a detail, don't worry about it! The medicine inside is absolutely good and has the function of detoxification. Although the tonic effect is relatively poor, the medicine is mild.
It is pure, moisturizing and more suitable for the elderly.”
Li Hui asked: "Is this really the case?"
"Really, pearls are not that real!" Lin Hao said: "Old man, you feel sleepy, tired, and low on energy. Taking one and a half pills will be better than eating a whole wild ginseng!"
Li Hui said with a smile: "Well, originally I thought it was a medicine that was three-thirds poisonous, so I would try not to take it if I could. But since Lin Hao is so intentional, I will reluctantly accept it!"
Xu Mingjun was very dissatisfied when he saw that the trouble he was looking for not only did not make Lin Hao embarrassed, but also won him the praise of Li Hui. However, when it came to things like medicine, he knew everything about it and couldn't get into it at all.
So I didn’t give in if I didn’t accept it, so I could only stare!
When he was thinking about how to start again, the butler Fu Bo came to inform him that lunch was ready.
Li Hui then waved his hand and said: "Then let's eat first. After eating, if you still want to fight, then continue. I really want to see whether Xiao Jun, a local snake, or Lin Hao is more powerful.
