    The old man glanced at Chu Chen who was chatting with him. He probably thought that Chu Chen was more pleasing to his eyes, and then said: "You guys are not locals. It's a coincidence that you are here. This is the first time that Qingpi has appeared in our place." Latest chapter visit:.  . And we are the only one doing this kind of business. To be honest, I don¡¯t think much of this business.¡± Chu Chen asked humbly, ¡°What do you think?¡±  How much does a better Wenwan walnut cost? Five or six hundred is enough to buy a very good one. A pair here costs 20, and the pile on the right costs 300. Whether the walnuts are good or not depends on luck.  , If you have this time to bet on green leather, you might as well go and buy it. You will know if I am right if you look at how many people are betting on green leather." Seeing Chu Chen nod in agreement, he continued: "Of course.  If Xiao Cheng expands his business to a big city like Beijing, he probably won't lose money. The purchasing power of buyers there is relatively high, unlike here, where every penny has to be broken in half. But he just doesn't.  They said they were trying to open up a business here, and they did something out of season. Don¡¯t you think this will increase costs?¡± When Chu Chen heard this, he said curiously: ¡°Uncle, why doesn¡¯t he expand his business?  Are you going to the city at a later time?" "You're not angry with me." The old man smiled and explained: "Lao Cheng doesn't agree with him to do this job. He has a stubborn temper and vows to do it on this street.  Make a name for yourself. In the final analysis, he is not joking with his own money, but this guy has a character that never looks back. He won¡¯t even listen to me, let alone others. ¡±  The reason was that Wu Ke looked at the two piles of green-skin walnuts on the left and right, and asked curiously: "Uncle, why are the prices of walnuts on the two sides so different?" The old man smiled and said: "You get what you pay for, Wenwan walnuts"  There are so many varieties, and the price difference is also very big. The pile on the right is the best wild lion head that Xiao Cheng brought back from other places. It is big and plump, and it is out of season. The green leather is not easy to preserve, so the price  "Of course it's higher." "Actually, I think these top-quality wild lion heads are pretty good if they are out of season. Why are these ordinary goods out of season? If they are in season, the cost will be increased for nothing.  With a pair of money, business will definitely be much better than it is now" Just as the old man was explaining to Chu Chen, another middle-aged man came forward and took out a hundred yuan, handed it over and said:  "Xiao Cheng, give me five pairs!" Xiao Cheng was slightly startled, raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man, and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Ping, what are you doing?" "Of course you are betting on green skin, can you still  What are you doing?" "But you don't usually play with walnuts!" "Stop talking nonsense, I want to play now, okay" While the two were talking, the old man whispered to Chu Chen: "This shopkeeper is  The family friend of Xiao Cheng's family has always been very fond of Xiao Cheng. He probably saw that Xiao Cheng's business was not doing well, so he tried to support the situation. " As soon as the old man finished speaking, Xiao Cheng still couldn't resist Shopkeeper Meng, and finally gave him the walnut.  But I gave it to seven pairs at once.  Shopkeeper Ping frowned and said, "I said, why do you and I have so many?" Xiao Cheng smiled and said, "Didn't I say this, buy three pairs and get one pair free? You are my elder, buy five and get two free.  That's right." Shopkeeper Ping didn't want to delay Xiao Cheng's business anymore, so he agreed directly: "Okay, open it for me quickly." "In fact, walnuts are very easy to open, especially this kind of old ones.  For green-skinned walnuts, you only need to use a sharp knife to carefully turn it around in the middle, and then you can break off the flesh and take out the core with your hands.  However, one thing that is very annoying about green-skinned walnuts is that there is a kind of black juice on the skin, which stains the hands black and is not easy to wash off.  Therefore, even if it is easy to open walnuts, the previous buyers asked Xiao Cheng to help them open them to avoid the trouble of going back.  Of course, this is not useless at all. For example, some jade dealers like to use walnut peels to give jade stones their color. This can save costs and prevent the color from fading easily.  To bet on green peel in the market is to carefully select two green peel walnuts. If the shape, size and texture are similar after peeling, it means they are the right match, and the closer they are, the higher the value.  For example, if a pair of green peels is priced at 20 yuan, the person who buys walnuts can choose them by himself. If he has good eyesight and picks a large pair with good texture, it may be worth one or two hundred yuan, and he will make a profit.  But if it happens that the texture is not good, the tip is yellow, and the pairing is not perfect, then it will be a waste, and no one will want a pair of ten yuan.  In addition, what affects the value of walnuts is the kernel.The size of ?.  Generally speaking, the three different sizes, 40 mm, 45 mm and 50 mm in diameter, represent the three grades of low, medium and high.  Generally speaking, walnuts that are above 45 are rare. Wenwan walnuts that are above 50 are quite precious. If the variety is good and the pairing is good, it can easily cost tens of thousands.  However, large walnuts are rarely seen anymore, let alone ones that can be paired successfully.  Among the seven pairs of walnuts selected by Shopkeeper Ping, five pairs were sold one after another, and the largest size was wrong, 39. Fortunately, Shopkeeper Ping was lucky. There was a pair of walnuts with a diameter of 38, and the variety, color, texture, etc. were all the same.  It's very close. After all, there is no loss of 100 yuan, and there is still a small profit.  Sometimes, it¡¯s enough to bet on something like this without losing money, not to mention making a small profit. Shopkeeper Ping feels very satisfied with this.  Next, the atmosphere at the scene suddenly became lively, because Xiao Cheng actually opened a walnut with a diameter of 45 cm. It was complete in appearance, full of fruit, and even the texture looked quite exquisite.  This walnut alone was worth hundreds of dollars, and the surrounding audience was filled with envy. Shopkeeper Ping's face was also filled with joy. The old man even said sourly, maybe this is good news for good people.  However, the diameter of the next two green peel walnuts that came out did not exceed 40, which made the atmosphere at the scene cool down again.  "Hey, this walnut is so big, and the shape and texture look similar to the one just now?" When Xiao Cheng untied the last green walnut, the audience around him exclaimed.  "It's true. It won't match the one just now, right?" "Xiao Cheng, first measure the diameter of the walnut." Xiao Cheng smiled and nodded, then quickly picked up the vernier caliper and measured it.  .  "45, it's also 45!" Xiao Cheng said excitedly.  "Ah! I didn't expect it to be 45. Shopkeeper Ping, you are so lucky" "Xiao Cheng, quickly match up and see" Xiao Cheng heard this and quickly put two walnuts in his hands. This pair of walnuts is of the lion head variety.  They are all short piles with big bellies. The overall feeling is very solid, the color is basically the same, the texture is smooth, the chrysanthemum pattern at the bottom is radiating, and the variety characteristics are distinctive.  The pairing was ¡®awesome¡¯.  "It's really the best!" Seeing this, the surrounding area suddenly became excited. Someone congratulated Shopkeeper Ping. Shopkeeper Ping returned the gift and his face was full of joy. 45 walnuts are relatively common, but they can be matched.  , and it is very rare to match such a good lion head, and the price of a pair must be thousands.  "Shopkeeper Ping, can you let us appreciate it?" an audience member said loudly, and others also agreed.  Shopkeeper Ping seemed a little embarrassed when he heard this, and someone next to him said: "Pair such good walnuts, they are big, and they are relatively expensive. I will go to the next door to borrow a small table, and come up to watch them one by one. Don't get started. Everyone  What do you think?" Everyone agreed, and Shopkeeper Ping nodded in agreement.  The table was borrowed and the walnuts were placed in a conspicuous position. Everyone came forward to appreciate it one by one. With so many people there, nothing happened, which made shopkeeper Ping feel relieved.  Chu Chen also stepped forward to admire it carefully, but he found that there was something wrong with the last walnut that opened. There was a not too obvious yellow neck near the tip. It was bright yellow, but the inside was not yellow enough.  Not too deep.  Seeing this, Chu Chen frowned secretly, why do you think this is happening?  It turns out that this particularly obvious yellow neck is a disease of walnuts, which is a change in the internal structure of the wood caused by malnutrition during the growth process.  Compared with normal wood, the density of yellow areas is much sparser, which is reflected in the hardness and is very soft.  If the hardness of the normal hemp walnut shell wood is similar to sandalwood and boxwood, then the hardness of the yellow part is similar to the poplar wood used to make toothpicks. Some are even softer and can be pressed with a fingernail to make a mark.  Because the texture is relatively soft, such walnuts are easily injured by bumps. Therefore, walnuts with this problem no longer belong to the category of full products.  We often hear the "three no's" emphasized by nuclear dealers, and the first of these "three no's" is "no pornography".  Fortunately, the "yellow neck" on this walnut does not penetrate too deeply, and it is not considered a serious injury. But even so, for knowledgeable people, the value of this walnut will be somewhat compromised.  .  "And if it were Mr. Liu, he wouldn't buy this kind of walnuts no matter how cheap they were.  This is not because Liu Lao dislikes walnuts with only 45, but he believes that after playing with a pair of walnuts for a few years, they can develop that beautiful old red color, with a smooth and transparent coating, a round and smooth feel, and a crisp and clear sound.  .  Only such walnuts are worth playing with when they are in white stubble.  On the contraryThere is no need to collect walnuts that cannot be played with and are difficult to play with.  Obviously, it is impossible for this kind of "yellow neck" walnut to achieve that effect. Therefore, for players like Mr. Liu, there is no need to buy this kind of walnut.  However, with so many people present, Chu Chen probably saw the problem. After the others saw it, they all expressed their congratulations to Shopkeeper Ping. They were a little impatient and even talked about the price with Shopkeeper Ping, but Shopkeeper Ping  He didn't agree immediately, and he didn't say die, he just said he would go back and think about it.  ¡ª¡ª40143+dsuaahhh+25915678¡ª¡ª>?¡­
