Old Xie opened the box, while Liu Hong took the box out of the bag and opened it. Their gifts were respectively a wood carving and a porcelain vase, which seemed to be antiques and their value should not be low.

Su Jing did not intend to accept their gifts at first and he wanted to politely decline. Old Xie and Liu Hong are both friends of Old Mister Murong, and Liu Hong is still a good friend of Wang Zhuo. However, both Old Xie and Liu Hong insisted on giving the gift to Su Jing, who had no choice but to accept the gift.

Dr. Zhang did not bring any gifts, but he also expressed his thanks again and again. He used a few ginseng roots provided by Su Jing to recuperate the bodies of several patients. The patients were grateful to him, but he was very clear that the credit shouldn’t go to him but Su Jing and Dr. Zhang said: “Mr. Su, your ginseng is really amazing. I can’t believe that there is such a Divine Ginseng in this world, the medicinal properties are so good. There are several patients who want to buy it at a high price, I don’t know if Mr. Su is willing to sell them? Or, is it possible to cultivate this kind of ginseng in batches and promote it.”

“I only have a few such ginseng. I don’t plan to sell them, let alone promote them.” Su Jing shook his head.

“That is also good, such amazing ginseng must require a unique condition to appear, I’m afraid it will be difficult for anyone to obtain it without luck. Mr. Su already gave me a few, which is already the greatest favor.” Dr. Zhang sighed, with some regret but he did not say much. In his opinion, this ginseng is probably born in a Sanctuary and Blessed Land and was probably 300 or even thousands of years old, it is beyond the reach of most people.

Su Jing did not continue to discuss the topic of ginseng. After all, he really was reluctant to sell it. He picked up the Proclaim bottle that Liu Hong had gifted him and observed it for a while. He said, “Old Liu, if I see it correctly, this porcelain bottle should be from the time of Emperor Qianlong of Qing Dynasty and it should be a tobacco mosaic exquisite porcelain, right? “

“Mr. Su has a good eye.” Liu Hong nodded and smiled.

“I know a little bit about these things.” ​​Su Jing smiled. In order not to almost lay Lapis Lazulis on the floor like last time, he has recently learned a variety of ancient knowledge, but because of time constraints, he is not proficient in it. For example, he can clearly see that the Porcelain in front of him belongs to a Dynasty by its variety from the official seal and style, but his knowledge is not perfect and meticulous. If he wants to further identify the authenticity of this item then he cannot do that. Of course, this is a Porcelain bottle from Liu Hong, so it must be an authentic one, so no identification is needed.

“Old Xie, I see that this woodcarving is not only well-crafted but also the material is very good. I don’t know what wood it is?” Su Jing picked up the woodcarving that Old Xie had sent and asked curiously, It was a 15-centimeter-high Guanyin wood carving with a clear bottle in hand and a vivid and refined look. Even a beginner could see that the wood carving was extraordinary.

“Oh, this is the Small Nanmu Plant wood and this is a woodcarving from the Ming Dynasty,” Old Xie said.

“That’s a good treasure.” Su Jing praised, Small Nanmu Plant is of high quality and valuable, and now it is a national Second Level protected plant. Small Nanmu Plant plus top craftsmanship, plus a long history, it is definitely a treasure.

“By the way, Old Xie, I have a wooden box. Could you help me out with that?” Su Jing suddenly turns his eyes. As far as he knows, Old Xie used to be an Appraiser. Now he is too old to work. His specialty is calligraphy and painting, but he is also very knowledgeable about wood carving, Porcelain and jade.

Now that Old Xie is here, it is better to ask him as it would be more accurate than his amateur vision. Old Xie’s character is obviously better than Shen Hong’s, and he will not try to pit himself.

“Certainly, let me have a look.” Old Xie smiled. Su Jing couldn’t take the wooden box out of the storage bag directly in front of them, so he pretended to go upstairs and take the wooden box down.

When Su Jing approached and they took a closer look at the wooden box, Old Xie’s face, which had been smiling, suddenly froze. Suddenly he got up and stared at the box, unable to take his eyes off him. Then he took out his magnifying glass and looked closer. The more he looked, the more excited he became, and his breathing was a little short.

“Is this … Gold-Rimmed Nanmu?” Liu Hong also saw this and asked.

Liu Qing and Dr. Zhang didn’t know what was happening. Seeing Liu Hong and Old Xie, who had just given away gifts worth hundreds of thousand yuan, behaving like this, did they need to look so excited watching a broken box?

“It’s just a broken box. What if it’s Gold-Rimmed Nanmu?” “Asked Liu Qing.

“You know nothing.” Liu Hong glanced at Liu Qing and said, “Don’t talk nonsense if you don’t know anything. Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is said to be something that will remain immortal for thousands of years, it will not rot for thousands of years and it is also insect-proof and winter or summer doesn’t affect it and it remains warm in winter and cool in summer, it won’t be deformed easily. It won’t get cracked easily or naturally and it exudes a faint fragrance and it is one of the top-quality wood. Not to mention a broken box, even a small piece of this wood is very valuable.”

“Are you serious?” Liu Qing froze and looked at the wooden box again.

But to be honest, even if this box is tattered, it does look extraordinary, because the wood is golden yellow and the texture is beautiful.

“It turned out to be Gold-Rimmed Nanmu.” Su Jing suddenly realized. He didn’t know about Gold-Rimmed Nanmu very well but he had also heard about it. Hearing that Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is difficult to rot, so the Emperor used Gold-Rimmed Nanmu wood for their Coffins. Many Royal furniture was also made of Gold-Rimmed Nanmu wood, which has been a symbol of royal culture since ancient times, so it is called “Emperor of the Wood”.

“Oh my god, I have lived so long. I have seen countless Gold-Rimmed Nanmu wood material, but this is the first time I have seen such a superb quality Gold-Rimmed Nanmu.” Old Xie was shocked, and his body was shaking slightly, it looked as if he would pass out at any moment.

“How good is it?” Liu Hong asked as he wasn’t familiar with this.

“The value of gold thread is proportional to the grain, the more beautiful and rare the grain, the higher it’s value. There are at least 35 textures, roughly divided into five levels: Ordinary, Medium, Fine, Superb and Rare. This Gold-Rimmed Nanmu box, even if it is evaluated by the level of rarity is full of perfect dragon scale Gold silk grain design, it is simply the creation of heaven and earth. What’s more, the fragrance it is emitting is soothing and it is delicate to touch and is as smooth as a baby’s skin. Perfect, this is just perfect! ” Old Xie is so impressed that he almost uses all the compliments he has for it, but he suddenly asks, “But how could such a perfect Gold-Rimmed Nanmu be used to create such a simple wooden box?”

“I don’t know, it was like when I got it.” Su Jing shook his head. He couldn’t say that this is a box from the “Stellar Transformation Universe” and it was thrown in the Garbage in the Stellar Transformation Universe. Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is a rare treasure on Earth. However, in the unique environment of Stellar Transformation, Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is estimated to be everywhere in there like weeds. There is abundant spiritual energy in that Universe and there are many Sacred trees with diameters of hundreds of meters. Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is nothing but normal wood there.

So, even if he knows that this is a Gold-Rimmed Nanmu material and that its grade surpasses all other Gold-Rimmed Nanmu on earth, Su Jing is not surprised. He even thought that what Old Xie sees is just the surface, and the value of this Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is probably not just that. After all, Old Xie didn’t know about its origin. This wooden box had been in the ocean for many years but there was no sign of even a little bit of corrosion. This wood is probably not Immortal for a thousand years, but immortal for Millennium.

“Then how much is this wooden box worth?” Liu Qing couldn’t help asking.

“Even if the value is somewhat destroyed by the creator, but this material alone cannot be measured by value, it is still a priceless treasure. For the price, it will easily sell for more than 3 Million Yuan.” Old Xie said, In general, Gold-Rimmed Nanmu is valuable with dozens or even hundreds of yuan per gram, but it is difficult to put a value on the Perfect Gold-Rimmed Nanmu as it is extremely hard to find in the whole world. Any collector will not sell it easily and they will certainly try to make it into other works of art for themselves. If they auction it by creating a stir and let the wealthy collectors all over the world know about it, then it would not be a surprise for it to sell for a sky-high price.

“…” Both Liu Qing and Dr. Zhang’s eyes widened. Such a broken box is worth more then Three Million Yuan, is that really true? 

“It’s almost a reckless waste of natural resources, let alone Gold-Rimmed Nanmu carved into woodcarving, even if it is made into a tea tray, as long as it is kept intact, it would be perfect. But someone made a useless wooden box out of it, if the collectors in the world knew about this, they would probably strangle the creator of this box.” Old Xie is still worried about the shape of the wooden box, it is difficult for him to accept this and he began to lament it again and again, A Perfect Gold-Rimmed Nanmu was used to make a Wooden Box, why not ask the top masters to create an artwork out of this? Making such a simple box that is usually used for holding things, did the person who created this is really that rich. Is he blind? (To be continued ~ ^ ~.)
