    Although Meng Zitao chose a jade bottle that was full of color and looked like it was a jade bottle that had just been unearthed, Shu Ze knew that this bottle must be extraordinary from Shu Ze's understanding of him. Seeing Luo Haixu sullenly preparing to leave, of course he would not let it go.  A chance to attack Luo Haixu.

    "Zitao, why did you choose such a jade bottle?"

    Hearing Shu Ze¡¯s question, Luo Haixu paused. He was also very curious as to why Meng Zitao chose such a jade bottle instead of other items.

    Meng Zitao glanced at Luo Haixu next to him, and then said with a smile: "Because I think he might be Qiu Chuji's jade carving."

    "Qiu Chuji? The one in The Legend of the Condor Heroes?" Not to mention Luo Haixu, Shu Ze was also very surprised.

    "That's him, but he is a real historical figure, and he has a great reputation." Meng Zitao briefly introduced Qiu Chuji's life story, focusing on his jade carving field.

    Luo Haixu couldn't help but ask: "How do you know that this jade bottle was made by Qiu Chuji?"

    "I'm in a good mood today, so I'll teach you a lesson. It must be because of the influence of Qinse that you didn't pay much attention to this jade bottle. In fact, as long as you look carefully, you can find many things about this jade bottle.  Every place has its own unique characteristics."

    Meng Zitao talked eloquently and pointed out some of the characteristics of the jade bottle one by one.

    Luo Haixu looked at the jade bottle with a dull expression. After listening to Meng Zitao's explanation, he realized that this jade bottle did have many extraordinary features.

    The vessel has a beautiful shape, well-proportioned structure, high neck, closed bottom, and cleverly shaped melon ribs. The melon ribs are neat and uniform, full and plump, and the face is round and plump, almost natural.  Although the body and cap of the bottle are divided into two parts, the melon ribs extending to the top are actually one piece.  The double-activated ring is Ruyier, simple and elegant.  The round leather color on the front is like a finishing touch, which makes people's eyes brighter. It is elegant and noble, full of ancient meaning, and you will feel a sense of love when you look at it.

    "Why, why didn't you see it just now? If I had known this, I should have put the jade bottle back in my room!"

    Luo Haixu's heart was full of regret and annoyance. In fact, his previous gains were not limited to the few items he was holding in his hand. Some of the more precious ones had already been put back into his room. As for the items in his hand, he wanted to  I looked to see if there was a chance to exchange it for an antique that I liked, but unexpectedly I missed it.

    Luo Haixu raised his head and looked at Meng Zitao and Shu Ze. He hated himself for being stupid. He agreed to the bet even though he knew Shu Ze could not do a loss-making business. He also hated Shu Ze and Meng Zitao deeply, even though he had already left.  Eye, you actually want to tell the result. Isn't this just adding salt to your own wounds?

    "Unforgivable!"

    Luo Haixu turned around and left. After leaving the room, the blond and blue-eyed young man who followed him said: "Luo, now there is an opportunity for you to take revenge with your own hands. Don't you want to seize it?"

    Luo Haixu paused. He wanted to agree immediately, but he understood that there was no turning back. If he agreed, he might be trapped in a whirlpool.

    "Abel, let me think about it again."

    Abel said calmly: "Luo, you don't understand your situation, right? After the last incident, you have been far away from the succession of your Luo family. Although you have not been deprived of qualifications, I hope you can  It¡¯s already very slim, in this case, why don¡¯t you give it a try?¡±

    Luo Haixu's face turned gloomy: "Abel, you have to understand that my surname is Luo, and apart from my eldest brother, no one in this generation has higher prestige than me."

    Abel said with a half-smile: "What about Qian Luolin?"

    Luo Haixu's expression changed, and he roared in a low voice: "He is just a lowly private person, can he compare with me? Abel, if you still want to be friends with me, don't mention this person in front of me!"

    Abel ignored Luo Haixu's warning and said to himself: "No matter what, he is also the blood of your Luo family, and if he does not pose a threat to you, why do you care so much?"

    Seeing Luo Haixu's face turning red with anger, Abel changed the topic again: "Luo, you have to know that you are just one of our targets in this selection, not the only one. If others have agreed, you will lose it."  An opportunity to change your own destiny. And although the family assets are good, they are usually restricted by other members of the family. If it is your own property, you have the final say on all major decisions. I hope you will think it over carefully."

    Luo Haixu fell silent. After a moment, he raised his head and looked at Abel and said, "If it happens, what support can you give me?"

    "MyanmarMeng Zitao and Shu Ze were too lazy to listen to the cliches, chatting while waiting for the auction to start.

    The person in charge also knew that the people in the audience were impatient with him, so within two or three minutes, he ended his speech and officially announced the start of the auction.  at the same time.  An auctioneer stepped onto the stage, which also heralded the official start of the auction.

    "Hello everyone, the first auction item today is a very rare treasure, and it is also very special. It can be used to treat illnesses and save lives. As for what it is, I won't tell you. Please ask the staff to lift it.  Come up!"

    The auctioneer waved his hand and saw two beautiful staff members carrying a huge brocade box onto the stage. Meng Zitao took a closer look and saw that it was actually a ginseng. Judging from the size of the ginseng, it was obviously very old.

    At this time, I heard the auctioneer say loudly: "Yes, it is the ginseng that people are familiar with, and it is a ginseng that has been growing for five hundred years!"

    "Wow! Real or fake?! Five hundred years, it's impossible!"

    There was an uproar at the scene, and many people showed incredulous looks.

    Ginseng is no stranger to everyone. It mostly grows in East Asia, especially in cold areas.  The most famous product is produced by Kyrgyzstan Gaoguan Baishan, the representative of Chinese ginseng.  Ginseng from this mountain has the best texture. Ginseng belongs to the Araliaceae family. American ginseng is produced in North and Central America. It is also a top-quality warm tonic.

    Ginseng has obvious cardiotonic effects, and its most significant effect is in rescuing cardiogenic shock and hemorrhagic shock. This is why the ancients believed that ginseng has the effect of "reviving the dead."  Many famous works in ancient my country have written about the fact that royal families, wealthy families or medical families often mentioned the edible and medicinal use of ginseng.

    In ancient times, old ginseng was a treasure. However, nowadays, the phenomenon of "sky-high prices" of wild ginseng frequently occurs. The fundamental reason lies in the absolute scarcity of its resources.

    This is because in recent years, environmental changes and wild ginseng have experienced long-term uncontrolled mining and are now almost extinct. Even the discovery of wild ginseng is a relatively rare event. Therefore, the current domestic wild ginseng production is already very large.  It is difficult to count accurately.

    Every year, only about 6 kilograms of wild ginseng appears in the domestic market, and the dried product is less than 2 kilograms.  According to media reports, even if the national reserves are calculated, they are only about a few dozen kilograms. Wild ginseng is basically priceless and unmarketable.

    Under this premise, wild ginseng has become an "orphan" similar to a protected cultural relic. Once a wild ginseng in good condition appears on the auction market, it will set a new "sky-high price" record for this category.

    What we are talking about here is wild ginseng of a young age. The price of ginseng that is hundreds of years old is difficult to estimate, let alone ginseng that is five hundred years old.

    Meng Zitao had only heard of it before. In the late 1980s, a ginseng farmer accidentally picked up a "King Ginseng" weighing 305 grams. This King Ginseng had been living safely underground for more than 480 years.  Through media publicity, this wild ginseng has become a sensation at home and abroad. It has now become a national treasure specimen and is collected by museums.  It is said that there is also a thousand-year-old ginseng that lives deep in the mountains and forests, but it has not been verified.

    Shu Ze was a little excited: "Really or not, is it really a ginseng that has been growing for five hundred years?"

    "It should be impossible to joke about this," Meng Zitao said.

    According to reports, all the lots in this auction will be identified using scientific instruments. There is still a possibility of errors in identifying antiques, but for a plant like ginseng, its production age should be unlikely to be faked, not to mention the appearance of this ginseng.  Look at it, it can¡¯t be faked.

    Before the items were auctioned, the guests had a small amount of time to appraise the items, so the guests stood up one after another. Basically everyone was interested in ginseng. After all, its effects are so outstanding. In some critical moments, it can  But it¡¯s a treasure that can save lives.

    When the guests returned to their seats one by one, the auctioneer said: "The first lot is a five-hundred-year-old wild ginseng. The starting price is five million. Each increase in price must not be less than one hundred thousand. Let's start now"

    "Ten million!" Each bid doubled the price.

    As early as the end of July 2007, a wild ginseng found in Changbai Mountain was purchased by a ginseng dealer in Jilin Province for 3 million yuan.  In 2009, a 75.8-gram wild ginseng tree fetched a record price of 2.22 million yuan.

    As for this five-hundred-year-old ginseng, Meng Zitao and Shu Ze are both waiting for the right time to start bidding (remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
