Warm male Shenhao started from traveling around the world

Chapter 48

Qinan agarwood?In the past, Li Xiaofan had only heard the fairy tale of "Chen Xiang saves his mother" on the stage in the village. Chen Xiang is the name of a person who splits the mountain to save his mother in the drama, so what is this Qinan Chen Xiang?
The introduction after AI recognition starts on the screen of the remote control:

[Qinan, also known as agarwood, is the top grade of agarwood, that is, Ganan incense, another name for super-grade agarwood.In the Qing Dynasty, Cha Shenxing's poem "Talking about the Old with Chen Zhangpuxin": "The rent from the mountain is transported to the sea shell, and the ship is cheap to Canaan." It is the best of the best agarwood. .Usually, only a very small part of a large piece of agarwood seeds can be regarded as Qinan, which is extremely precious.

"Qinan" is a word translated from ancient Sanskrit, and it is often written as "Dagala" in Buddhist scriptures of the Tang Dynasty.Qinan is qualitatively transformed from agarwood, but it requires extremely harsh special conditions. Qinan belongs to agarwood, but there may not be a piece of agarwood.It is a plant of the family Daphneaceae, agarwood or white wood, a wood with a lot of resin near the root, and its taste is sweet and warm.The fragrance of Qinan is elegant and noble, which can only be felt by experiencing it personally.Since the Han Dynasty, the royal family worshiped heaven, prayed for blessings, worshiped Buddha, worshiped gods, and made incense indoors, and Qinan was the most important incense material.In the Sikuquanshu, Borneo (today's East Malaysia, Indonesian Kalimantan, and Brunei) and Champa (today's kingdom in southern Vietnam) are the best and most orthodox, but other agarwood-producing countries are also strange. . 】

Wow, Qinan turned out to be the so-called agar!Then the East Malaysia area of ​​the Aegean Island where I am now is the ancient Borneo area.

Li Xiaofan couldn't help thinking, this Qinan is so precious, what is its market price, is this item expensive?
I checked it on the Internet with my mobile phone, and I probably understood: Qinan Agarwood is very precious, and has always been a rare item in the royal collection.The current market price is at least RMB 1 per gram.At present, the super rich in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea are in great demand for it, and the price they offer is also very impressive...

Damn, you read that right, more than 1 yuan per gram!

This is the first time I heard that the world of the rich is incredible!

I found a lot of information on the Internet: Not to mention Qinan agarwood, high-quality agarwood is also a rare thing.For example, the yellow ripe incense collected by the Japanese royal family - "Lanshedai" is a piece of agarwood with a history of more than 1300 years. At the incision of the fragrant wood of "Lanshedai", there are three paid signatures, which respectively write the records of three influential figures in Japan, such as Ashikaga Yoshimasa, Oda Nobunaga, and Emperor Meiji, "how many inches and cents were cut in a certain year and month" . "Lanshedai" implies the word "Todaiji", known as the No.1 fragrance in the world, and is regarded as a national treasure of RB.

The official name of Lanshedai in the literature is Huang Shuxiang. It is preserved in the Shosoin of Todaiji Temple in Nara, Japan. Shosoin is the treasure house attached to Todaiji Temple. It is a representative collection of important cultural relics from the Nara period in Japan.According to research, Lanshe may be a kind of agarwood produced in Borneo in Southeast Asia. It was probably introduced to Japan by the Tang Dynasty of China in the ninth century AD.In the eighth year of Tianping Shengbao (756 in the Gregorian calendar), when the Empress Dowager Guangming presented it to Todai Temple, the weight of Lan Shedai was 13 kilograms.The emperors and generals of all dynasties have cut small pieces to use or reward meritorious officials.According to records, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and Emperor Meiji have all used it.Precious……

Immediately, Li Xiaofan became very interested in treasure hunting for Qinan Chenxiang on the mountain.

He said loudly to Qian Ruoxue in the sea: "Ruoxue, you dive slowly first, I'm going out for a while, come back later! If there is anything, let's call!"

"Husband, where are you going? You are in such a hurry!"

"I'm going to hunt for treasure in the nearby mountains, you should dive slowly first!"

"Treasure hunting? Go up the mountain and be safe! Do you want me to go with you?"

"No, I can go by myself. I grew up in a small mountain, so it's fine, don't worry!"

After speaking, Li Xiaofan put on his sneakers, took the drone and some outdoor equipment and went out.

At the entrance of the reception hall in the villa area, Li Xiaofan rented an off-road vehicle driven by a local aboriginal driver for one hundred dollars, and under the guidance of the drone above his head, he headed towards the virgin rainforest on the side.

When the off-road vehicle arrived at the foot of the mountain, a few dark clouds floated over and drizzled.

Li Xiaofan asked the native driver to wait in the car, and went up the mountain by himself following the guidance of the drone.

This is a dense rainforest trail for mountaineering enthusiasts to climb. It is very slippery after getting wet in rainy days.

After climbing for more than an hour, there was no way. A huge boulder in front blocked the way. Behind the boulder, there was a loud crash of waterfalls and streams.The boulder looks to be nearly 200 meters high. The cliff at the top of the boulder is covered with vines, covered with many unknown exotic plants and flowers, and there is a faint fragrance and aura in the clouds.

The drone was still hovering in the sky, indicating that Qinan Chenxiang should be in the nearby area.

Li Xiaofan became curious and planned to climb up the rock wall on the left to see what happened.The cliff on the left side is extremely steep and steep, and the rainwater gathered into several streams and scattered among them.Pulling the cane, Li Xiaofan struggled to climb to the waist of the boulder.

He rested for a while and continued climbing.

Suddenly, the roots of the vines he was holding loosened and the roots were uprooted.In an instant, his whole body lost support, and he slid down the cliff with a rattan in his hand.

After sliding down for tens of meters, Li Xiaofan felt his feet get cold, and fell into a small green pool!

Fortunately, the water was not deep and everything in the backpack was still there.

Standing up and looking, a rapid waterfall more than ten meters thick flew down from a high stone end in front of my eyes, making a loud noise like thunder.The surrounding water is like clouds and mist, surrounding the waterfall like a white dragon.After the waterfall met the stone halfway, some waterfalls flowed into thin and transparent crystal curtains, some were as thick as several feet, and some were as thin as a long rope swaying in the air with the wind, all of them flowed to the depth where they were. pond.The sound of the water falling on the rocks, accompanied by the sound of the spring in the pool and the roar of the waterfall falling from the peak, is just like a wonderful symphony.

Walking to the rocky beach and filtering the rainwater, Li Xiaofan looked around and saw that there was actually a huge basin around the deep pool, like a tiankeng.The basin is covered with lush trees, flowers and plants. Thousands of drops of water splashed and fell on the nearby green grass, green and shiny, like pearls, rolling with the wind from time to time.The flowers, plants and trees in this basin are nourished by the waterfall and mist, and the soil and moss are more and more visible, and the flowers are like a smile.

Li Xiaofan took a deep breath, the oxygen in this place is abnormally abundant and thick, if it is in the world of cultivating immortals, it may be a very suitable cave for cultivation.

　Happy Chinese New Year, good health, smooth work, and happy family!Good luck in the Year of the Ox!
