Chapter 292: Are these medicinal materials real or fake?(1/2)
At this time, the entire warehouse is full of medicinal materials!
Wu Lan can swear to God that this is the most medicinal materials she has ever seen in her life!
Moreover, these medicinal materials are extremely precious, and the medicinal fragrance fills the entire warehouse. Just smelling it, I suddenly feel relaxed and happy, and my whole body is full of energy!
Li Xianmu took a few deep breaths, his face showing unprecedented satisfaction.
"Brother Weiguo, have you really purchased everything??"
Li Xianmu was extremely shocked.
Xu Weiguo nodded, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that I have really purchased it, but you don't believe me, and there's nothing I can do about it!"
Wu Lan stared blankly at the pile of medicinal materials in front of him. He did not speak, but quietly walked into the medicinal materials and carefully examined them.
"There are generally two ways to identify the age of ginseng. One is to look at the stems, leaves, and fruits; the other is to look at the roots. However, using the stems, leaves, and fruits of ginseng to identify the age of ginseng is less reliable. Generally, ginseng is used
The root is used to identify the age of ginseng. The root of ginseng resembles a human figure and is composed of reed head (head), taro (upper limb), main root (hiding trunk), lateral root (lower limb), fibrous root (foot), etc.
The shape of the main root can be divided into straight body, rhomboid body, knotted rhomboid body, etc. Among them, there are more straight body and less rhomboid body. The reed head, skin color, texture, etc. of the ginseng root can be used as the basis for identifying the age of the ginseng, but the reed bowl is used
The number of reed bowls shall prevail. The reed bowls are the scars left by the annual regeneration of the above-ground stems and leaves of ginseng. If there are several reed bowls, it can be considered to be several years old. These are standard 10-year-old ginseng!"
"The older the ginseng is, the higher its value and the better the medical care effect. Generally, the average annual growth rate of ginseng within 50 years is about 0.5 grams; the average annual growth rate for 50 to 100 years old is about 1.0 grams; the average annual growth rate for ginseng older than 100 years is about 1.0 grams.
, average annual growth
About 2.0 grams. Wild ginseng over 50 grams will take decades to grow, and larger ones will take one to two hundred years. As the saying goes: seven taels are ginseng, eight taels are treasure, and there are sixteen taels in one pound, so eight taels.
Two is equal to half a catty now, that is, two hundred and fifty grams!"
"Hiss——"
Suddenly Wu Lan saw some particularly large ginseng in the ginseng pile, "This must be more than fifty grams! These are at least fifty-year-old ginseng!"
Xu Weiguo smiled slightly, "I guess the quantity is not enough, so I took a few large ginseng sticks to make up for it. I'll talk about that supplier later!"
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books is the source-changing app, huanyuanapp. Install the latest version.]
Wu Lan immediately rolled his eyes, "Brother, please don't talk about your supplier. The value of these ginseng roots is probably higher than the value of other people's participation!"
Li Xianmu suddenly said: "These ginseng seems to be well preserved. Even the size and appearance are the same. I'm afraid they are not fake ginseng! I have heard that some people have used radish or tree roots to bring them.
Counterfeit ginseng looks great, but turns out to be worthless!"
Hearing this, Xu Weiguo said nothing.
Wu Lan was silent for a moment, and then said: "The authenticity of ginseng can be distinguished by the length of the reed, the dense jujube core, the tight skin, the fine grained pearl whiskers. The reed refers to the rhizome of ginseng; the bowl refers to the reed bowl, which is the stem on the ginseng rhizome.
mark; the digit of jujube core refers to the person
The adventitious roots on the ginseng; the tight skin and fine lines refer to the spiral patterns on the ginseng roots; the pearly fibers refer to the ginseng fibrous roots, which grow once a year and rot once, leaving pearl spots. According to these points, there is no problem with these ginseng."<
/p>
"On the contrary, these ginseng are well preserved and are rare and top quality!"
"There is also a big difference between pure wild ginseng and cultivated round ginseng in Renzhong, and the difference is very obvious. The body of pure wild ginseng has an elf-like appearance, thick at the top and thin at the bottom, with strong and powerful legs, like a tough and mighty general;
The round ginseng is thin at the top and huge cylindrical at the bottom. The body is fat and thick, like a fat white doll.
The difference between the reed heads is that the reed heads of pure wild ginseng are slender and twisted, and the reed bowls are small and tight, surrounded on all sides. The reed heads of round ginseng are thick, short, straight, and the reed bowls are large.
The difference between the cocks of pure wild ginseng is that the cocks of pure wild ginseng are rare and straight downward, while the cocks of round ginseng are many and flat and upturned.
The difference between the grains is that the ring grains of pure wild ginseng are thick and deep, while the ring grains of round ginseng are floating and shallow.
The difference between the skins is that the skin of pure wild ginseng is delicate, tight and shiny, while the skin of round ginseng is rough, loose and matte.
The difference between pure wild ginseng fibrous roots are slender, flexible and convoluted like dragon whiskers, with obvious pearl points, while round ginseng roots are thick and short, like brooms, with no pearl points.
So is it wild ginseng or round ginseng? Is it a donkey or a horse? You don’t need to pull it out and sneeze, you can tell whether it’s good or bad at a glance.”
"According to my experience, these ginsengs are definitely wild ginseng of sufficient age and are of extremely high value!"
Li Xianmu listened to Wu Lan's words with wide eyes, and couldn't help but applaud, "It's amazing, you are worthy of being the chief of the acceptance section of our special supplies department! The energy in his eyes is amazing!"
Wu Lan was also quite proud of himself and said proudly: "That's because I looked and looked at these wild ginseng and garden ginseng for several months!"
"And I have consulted many masters. There is no one in the entire special supply department who is more familiar with these things than me. Otherwise, how do you think I came to be the head of the acceptance department?"
Xu Weiguo also nodded, "Xiaolan, you have nothing to say about your business ability. You have to learn from Xiaolan on this first!"
Li Xianmu nodded, "I should indeed learn from Comrade Wu Lan, but...Brother Weiguo, do you also know about these medicinal materials? Otherwise, you wouldn't dare to take these medicinal materials so readily!"
When Li Xianmu was talking, he deliberately winked at Xu Weiguo. Obviously, this guy didn't think that Xu Weiguo was as good as Wu Lan in terms of medicinal materials.
"Brother Weiguo, you won't tell us that you haven't even looked at these medicinal materials!"
"Oh my God! These medicinal materials are worth tens of thousands, and you didn't even blink when you bought them. Even if the money was paid by the employer, if you buy fakes, it is equivalent to making a big mistake!
”
As he talked, Li Xianmu started to sweat for Xu Weiguo. In his heart, Xu Weiguo had always done research on growing vegetables, fishing, and aquaculture. As the saying goes, lines are separated like mountains, so Xu Weiguo definitely didn't know much about medicinal materials.
The counterfeiting of medicinal materials has been a business for thousands of years, and there are countless cases of being deceived. Even in the special supply department, buyers are looking for it every year.
Thinking of this, Li Xianmu changed from teasing at the beginning to genuinely caring about Xu Weiguo, and quickly said to Wu Lan: "Chief Wu, although you are sure there is nothing wrong with this ginseng, there are still more than ten other precious medicinal materials in this warehouse.
You should quickly take a look, some suppliers are so thief, everyone is paying attention to ginseng, they may not fake it, but other medicinal materials may not!"
"Hurry up and take a look at the other medicinal materials to make sure there are no problems with the other medicinal materials. We can't let Brother Weiguo suffer!"
Hearing this, Wu Lan also became a little wary, "Brother, I think Li Xianmu's words are quite reasonable. Anyway, I have to go through them all when I get to the unit. I will go through them here first. If there are any problems, we will also go through them."
What a great chase!"
Although Li Xianmu and Wu Lan really care about themselves, Xu Weiguo is a little unhappy. It seems that you still don't believe that I can purchase these medicinal materials!
In this case, let you take a good look!
Xu Weiguo did not speak, but nodded silently.
With Xu Weiguo's permission, Li Xianmu and Wu Lan took action immediately.
"Chief Wu, I'll move it and you can see it, so you can see it faster!" Li Xianmu said proactively.
Wu Lan nodded, "Okay, basically don't look at the ginseng, there should be no problem! Even if other ginseng has problems, you won't lose money if you have these ginseng that are at least fifty years old!"
"Let's look at Ganoderma lucidum next!"
"Okay!"
Li Xianmu nodded, and then raised the bag containing Ganoderma lucidum in front of Wu Lan.
Wu Lan opened his pocket and took out one of the Ganoderma lucidum. He looked at it, touched it and smelled it. After a lot of manipulation, his expression changed many times.
Li Xianmu watched anxiously. After Wu Lan put down the Ganoderma lucidum in his hand, he quickly asked: "Chief Wu, please tell me quickly, what's going on with this Ganoderma lucidum!"
"You have to be more specific with me. It's too professional and I can't understand it!"
Wu Lan said in a deep voice: "Ganoderma is a precious traditional Chinese medicine. It has the effect of nourishing qi and calming the nerves, relieving cough and asthma. It is mainly used to treat restlessness, insomnia, start of the season, cough and asthma with excessive phlegm, fatigue syndrome, etc."
"It is divided into three types: red ganoderma, purple ganoderma and cultivated ganoderma. Among them, red ganoderma has an umbrella-shaped fruiting body, a hard cork cap, semicircle or kidney shape, 10-18cm in diameter and about 2cm thick. The skin is hard and initially yellow.
, gradually turning into reddish brown, shiny, with annular ribs and radial wrinkles, the edges are thin and truncate, and often slightly involuted. The fungus flesh
Near white to light brown; the bacterial flesh on the lower surface of the cap is white to light brown, composed of numerous fine tubular holes. There are basidia and spores in the bacterial tube. The stipe is cylindrical, lateral, 7-15cm long and 1-4cm thick.
, reddish brown to purple brown, with a paint-like luster. The spores are small, yellowish brown. The smell is slightly fragrant and the taste is bitter.
Purple Zhizhi: The skin is purple-black or brown-black, with a paint-like luster. The fungus flesh and the bacteria tube under the cap are both rusty brown. The stipe is 17-23cm long.
For cultivated Ganoderma lucidum: the fruiting body is thicker and thicker, with a diameter of 12-22cm and a thickness of 1.5-4cm. There are often a large number of dust-like yellow-brown spores outside the skin."
"Based on this, we can judge that these are red mushrooms!"
"The quality of Ganoderma lucidum can be determined by its color. Wild Ganoderma lucidum has a natural color and mottled marks on the surface. Artificially cultivated Ganoderma lucidum has a smooth surface, basically the same size and regular shape. Wild Ganoderma lucidum has different sizes. The wild Ganoderma lucidum tastes bitter.
Yes, artificial ones have a less bitter taste. Artificially cultivated Ganoderma lucidum is generally managed strictly and is almost free of insects. Wild Ganoderma lucidum is infested by insects and will have irregular insect eyes."
Li Xianmu also picked up a piece of Ganoderma lucidum and looked at it, "These Ganoderma lucidum are almost the same in size and size. They don't even have insect eyes. It seems that these Ganoderma lucidum plants are all artificially cultivated!"
"If it is artificially cultured Ganoderma, I heard that the effect of Ganoderma is not as good as that of wild Ganoderma!"
"Besides, those old guys at the Medical College probably don't like artificially cultivated Ganoderma lucidum, right? They probably won't be able to pay back if they take these back, which is equivalent to Brother Weiguo being fooled!"
Wu Lan shook his head, "If you just look at the insect's eyes, it can indeed be judged as artificially cultivated Ganoderma, but... I have seen artificially cultivated Ganoderma with my own eyes. Compared with the Ganoderma here, it is obvious that the Ganoderma here is better than artificially cultivated Ganoderma."
Cultured Ganoderma lucidum is much better, so I doubt that this is actually a well-maintained wild Ganoderma lucidum!"
Um!!??
Hearing Wu Lan's remark, Li Xianmu was stunned, "Chief Wu, I don't understand what you are saying. What is a well-maintained wild Ganoderma lucidum? Aren't all wild Ganoderma lucidum raised in mountains?"
How can it be well maintained inside?"
"This..." Wu Lan was also a little confused, "I don't know how to explain it to you at the moment. These Ganoderma lucidum give me the feeling that the quality is the same as that of wild Ganoderma lucidum, just without the insect eyes!"
"Isn't that still artificially cultured Ganoderma lucidum?" Li Xianmu.
"Um...I can't be sure now. Maybe I can only be sure after sending it to the Medical Academy for their professional appraisal!" Wu Lan said rather tangledly.
At this time, Xu Weiguo spoke, "Actually... whether Ganoderma lucidum is wild does not depend on the number of insect eyes!"
