Chapter 68 Five Hundred Years of Polygonum multiflorum
"Xiao Wu, why don't you take a look?"
After Miss etiquette left, Mr. Lin communicated with Zhou Wu in a low voice.
Zhou Wu shook his head and smiled: "You don't need to get started, just take a look."
"You can tell it just by looking at it?" Lin's grandson asked in surprise.
"More or less, I have a strong sense of spiritual power."
Mr. Lin took a deep breath, and then asked in a test-oriented tone: "Then can you tell me how old this ginseng is?"
"I can't tell exactly how old it is, but it does have aura on it. It's probably less than half the size of the previous fern."
"You can't tell how many years it is? But you can tell how much spiritual energy there is?"
The two ancestors looked at each other, what is this?
Zhou Wu scratched his head and said a little embarrassedly: "Grandpa Lin, do you know how old it is?"
"About fifty years."
"Fifty years?"
Zhou Wu also took a deep breath, a fifty-year-old wild ginseng, this is something extraordinary.
"Then do you think the Bai family can see it?" Zhou Wu asked curiously.
"As a medical family, how could they not see it? They just don't say it."
Mr. Lin shook his head and said, "If you can't tell, the Lin family won't be able to acquire it or put it up for auction."
"Well, that makes sense."
At this moment, the hostess returned to the podium and put down the tray.
Bai Zongbao also smiled at this time and said: "You must all know it by heart, right? When my grandfather purchased it, he determined that this wild ginseng is fifty-one years old."
"Of course, this is just a reference. The Bai family cannot guarantee it. Whether it is a panacea or not depends entirely on your ability."
"Yes, this ginseng is more than fifty years old. Mr. Bai's eyesight is amazing and he can never be wrong." Mr. Huang praised at this time.
"Thank you, Mr. Huang."
Bai Zongbaogong handed over his hand: "This mountain ginseng has a base price of five million. Each increase in price must not be less than one hundred thousand. The bidding starts now."
"Wow~"
A young man sitting next to Mr. Huang and Mr. Zong in the front row raised a sign and said: "My Zong family bids six million."
It immediately went up to one million.
"Seven million."
Someone followed immediately behind, a young girl, and an old man in Tang suit beside him.
"Ten million."
Suddenly, the third person raising the sign, with an obvious Cantonese accent, directly increased the price to 10 million.
"Xiangdao Situ Family."
Mr. Lin whispered at this time: "A rich man in the Chinese circle."
"Um."
Zhou Wu nodded, he was not interested in who was who.
Because he was thinking about one thing at this time.
The spiritual power on the previous fern was more than double the spiritual power on this old mountain ginseng.
Does that mean that the fern is more than a hundred years old?
He gradually got a clue in his mind, and if he continued to look at it, he might have a clear understanding of the elixir.
"Xiao Wu, is it worth taking action?" Mr. Lin suddenly asked at this time.
Zhou Wu shook his head: "It's not worth the price. It's too expensive. Even if Grandpa Lin buys it and makes it into ginseng, it won't have much effect after drinking it."
"makes sense."
Lin Tianyang shook his head with a wry smile.
The twenty years he was delayed were in his prime. If he had not been delayed, he would probably have attained the Great Perfection.
So now he desperately hopes that he can also enter the innate world.
After Xiangdao Situ's family bid 10 million, the venue fell into a brief silence.
Bai Zongbao also smiled and said: "Bidder No. 8 bids 10 million, is there anyone else who bids?"
"Fifteen million."
It was the young people from the Zong family who raised their placards and got another five million.
The elixir of old wild ginseng is worth the price.
Even if there is no aura in the wild ginseng, the fifty-year-old wild ginseng is still very expensive.
Because this wild ginseng can kill you.
"Sixteen million."
The person holding the placard on No. 12, that is, the young woman raised the placard again and increased the price by one million.
"Twenty million." The Situ family continued to increase the price by leaps and bounds.
As soon as 20 million came out, Mr. Huang and Mr. Zong all shook their heads.
The young woman stopped raising her sign.
"Bidder No. 8 bids 20 million..."
"Twenty million times..."
"Twenty million times..."
"Thirty million, the sale is completed. Congratulations to bidder No. 8."
Miss Liyi immediately brought the tray over, but the Situ family was not short of money and signed the check on the spot.
The second lot next is a Ganoderma lucidum.
But when the etiquette lady walked up to Zhou Wu with Ganoderma lucidum, Zhou Wu didn't even look at it.
There is no spiritual energy inside, it is just an ordinary mountain ganoderma.
And those present were all discerning people. After all, this was a high-stakes auction, and everyone brought experts with their eyesight.
The base price of Ganoderma lucidum is one million.
However, the auction failed!
No one would waste a million dollars.
The third lot is still a Ganoderma lucidum, but this Ganoderma lucidum has spiritual energy inside.
Mr. Lin quickly determined that the Ganoderma lucidum was about thirty years old.
When he heard the words thirty years, Zhou Wu's eyes lit up.
Because after inferring the aura of ginseng, this Ganoderma lucidum and the fern, he can now infer the age of the elixir based on the thickness of the aura.
And sure enough, the time given by the Bai family was about thirty-five years!
Zhou Wu had a clear understanding, and this time he gained more knowledge.
This Ganoderma lucidum was photographed by the Zong family.
The next fourth, fifth, and up to the tenth lot all have more or less aura on them!
Zhou Wu has been studying and listening. Even when the tenth elixir was brought over, he only glanced at it and secretly concluded that the elixir was only about twenty years old.
And sure enough, the Bai family also gave him twenty years.
Mr. Lin also participated in several placard-raising events, but was unable to take any photos. It is true that the people here are very wealthy.
At noon, everyone had a free lunch in the Baizhai Courtyard. They all had authentic specialties, including mountain delicacies, but no seafood.
The taste was very good, and even Zhou Wu found that every dish had a hint of aura.
Lin Guanyu told him that in fact, the reason why hundreds of bidders spent 100,000 yuan to participate was because of the lunch meal.
Because the meal prepared by the Bai family at noon was a delicacy cooked with elixirs, it was even rumored that three years ago, someone ate this lunch and achieved the innate realm in the afternoon.
As soon as this news came out, people would come even if it cost one million yuan, let alone one hundred thousand yuan.
Zhou Wu didn't feel much. To be honest, he did have spiritual energy, but it was too thin and not enough to support his practice.
Zhou Wu never made a bid because he felt that it was not worthwhile to spend hundreds or even tens of millions on a medicinal herb. Moreover, he did not find that any of these elixirs were over a hundred years old.
However, just after five o'clock in the afternoon, when the sixteenth and last lot was brought over, Zhou Wu's eyes lit up.
"Polygonum multiflorum more than five hundred years old!" Zhou Wu's heart was shocked.
Bai Zongbao introduced before that this strangely shaped elixir root weighing three to four kilograms is Polygonum multiflorum.
However, what Zhou Wu didn't expect was that the Polygonum multiflorum was probably around five hundred years old.
Because it looks five times more powerful than the aura of the fern.

[The author has something to say]
Note: It is normal for Polygonum multiflorum to be more than 500 years old. In 2015, two Polygonum multiflorum flowers over 500 years old were discovered in two places in the south.
