Chapter 612 Lantern Walnut
Chapter 612 Lantern Walnut
Finally saying goodbye to the enthusiastic Wu Liguo, Qi Tianming, under the guidance of Gu Chang, followed the winding path and headed straight for the walnut trees!
Along the way, Qi Tianming was full of anticipation, wondering what kind of surprises these walnut trees would bring him.
After walking for about ten minutes, Gu Chang brought Qi Tianming to the walnut trees that Wu Liguo had brought him to yesterday.
When Qi Tianming took a look, he saw tall and straight walnut trees full of densely packed fruits, which made people happy.
As soon as he arrived at the destination, Qi Tianming couldn't wait to run under the tree and carefully picked a dozen green-skinned walnuts.
He peeled off the green skin of the walnuts with his hands, deftly and quickly, and soon, a dozen smooth walnuts appeared before his eyes.
Qi Tianming lined up the walnuts in a row, placed them in front of himself, and began to carefully observe their appearance and shape.
Each walnut is round and full, with bright colors, as if it contains endless vitality. As time goes by, Qi Tianming's expression becomes more and more excited, with excitement flashing in his eyes.
"How is it, Old Qi? What's the quality of this walnut?" Gu Chang, who was standing aside, looked at Qi Tianming's focused expression and couldn't help but ask curiously.
Qi Tianming took a deep breath and tried to calm his excitement: "The quality is too good, far beyond my imagination! Look, these dozen walnuts I picked casually..."
Qi Tianming looked at the walnuts in front of him, his eyes sparkling with excitement: "These walnuts are really great!"
"Look, the quality of these dozen walnuts is very good. Except for the three or four on the left, which are slightly inferior in quality, all the others are top-quality!"
He picked up one of the walnuts and looked at it carefully, as if he was admiring a precious work of art.
Then, Qi Tianming said with a hint of excitement in his voice: "After my observation and research, I can confirm that the fruits of these walnut trees, although slightly different from the traditional old lion heads, are definitely not inferior to those classic styles in quality."
"If these walnuts are put on the market for ornamental walnuts, they will surely be hotly sought after and become the focus of collectors and players."
He put down the walnut in his hand and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Hearing Qi Tianming's words, Gu Chang couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, secretly feeling fortunate in his heart.
Great, I found another treasure!
He thought silently in his heart.
At the same time, he decided to tell Wu Liguo the good news as soon as possible, and told them to protect these precious walnut trees.
The value of these walnut trees may far exceed the total value of several acres of ordinary walnut trees.
"Come on, I'll take you to see some other walnut trees."
Gu Chang also said with some excitement.
“Are there any walnut trees like this?”
Qi Tianming asked in shock. He had thought there were only these few special walnut trees, but he didn't expect there were more.
"Of course! There are still quite a few!" Gu Chang said with a smile.
"Come on, come on, take me to see it!"
Qi Tianming said excitedly. He couldn't wait to know what other walnut trees looked like.
So, the two walked along the mountain road, admiring the beautiful scenery in the mountains while looking for walnut trees. Under Gu Chang's leadership, they checked five walnut trees, a total of nearly twenty trees!
The walnut trees in three of the sites had fruits that were either too small or affected by insect pests, so the fruit quality was poor. However, when they came to the other two sites, Qi Tianming couldn't help but widen his eyes and almost jumped up with excitement!
The walnut trees in these two places are extremely lush, with broad crowns and lush green leaves.
The most surprising thing is that they are full of huge walnuts with smooth skin and bright colors.
"This one looks especially like a lantern walnut!" Qi Tianming picked a few walnuts, observed them for a while, and said.
"Lantern walnut? Is it because it looks like a lantern?" Gu Chang asked curiously.
"That's right!" Qi Tianming nodded.
"The Lantern Lion Head is a very niche variety with a moderate price and is not often seen on the market." Qi Tianming continued, "However, it also has its own characteristics and charm."
"Most lantern walnuts are basically brown chestnut color, and very few are yellow. The biggest feature is that they are easy to polish and color quickly. They will look very attractive in 1-2 years," Qi Tianming said with a smile, "and their patterns are deep and fine, which is very beautiful."
"However, most of the lantern walnuts are small in size, with deep lines and many edges and corners. They are prickly to the touch when they are rolled up. It can be said that some people are happy while others are worried! What they love is the deep and fine lines, while what they are worried about is the prickly feeling!" Qi Tianming explained.
"Hiss... You guys who are playing with walnuts really don't understand!" Gu Chang shook his head, indicating that he couldn't understand.
He tried to pick up two lantern walnuts, rubbed them together, and immediately felt the stinging sensation from the sharp edges.
"Can this thing really be polished to a patina?" Gu Chang asked doubtfully.
"Of course! As long as you keep playing with it for a long time, you will naturally find surprises." Qi Tianming encouraged.
"Well, I still prefer the old lion head in front." Gu Chang smiled helplessly.
Although he didn't understand why some people liked to eat this thorny walnut, everyone has their own preferences.
"You don't understand this! This is the feeling I want!" Qi Tianming also held two lantern walnuts. He grimaced because of the prickles, but he said it with a look of enjoyment.
Gu Chang curled his lips!
"Damn it! You're pretending again!"
