As soon as Grandfather Tang said this, all the Liang family members present were shocked. Even Xia Ruofei couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.
Previously, Grandfather Tang had offered a price of 10 million Huaxia dollars. Now, he had suddenly changed it to 10 million US dollars. This was a difference of more than six times! Although this gold-threaded cedar looked to be of extremely high quality, was it really worth that much money?
10 million US dollars. Many people wouldn't be able to earn that much money in a few lifetimes!
Even Liang Weimin couldn't help but say, "Uncle, the price you offered …"
"Do you all think that my price is too high?" Grandfather Tang smiled and interrupted Liang Weimin's words. He looked around and asked everyone.
The Liang family members didn't say anything, but from their expressions, it was obvious that they felt that the price was a little too high.
Grandfather Tang looked at Liang Weimin with a smile and asked, "Weimin, this material was found for me by your family's Little Chao. Tell me, how much do you think I should offer?"
Liang Weimin looked at the gold-threaded cedar, then looked at Xia Ruofei. Finally, he said, "Uncle, Ruofei's gold-threaded cedar is indeed of high quality. It can be said to be the best old material. What's rare is that it's a whole piece. But even so, I think … 20 million Huaxia dollars should be more appropriate."
"Hehe, 20 million?" Grandfather Tang smiled and said, "Weimin, I'll offer 30 million. As long as it's a material of this quality, I'll take it all!"
Xia Ruofei also stood up at this time. He smiled and said, "Grandfather Tang, it seems that this material of mine isn't simple!"
Liang Weimin also came back to his senses and hurriedly asked, "Uncle, is there any secret to this material? Can you give me some pointers? "
The other relatives of the Liang family also looked at Grandfather Tang and asked him to give them some pointers.
Grandfather Tang smiled and walked in front of the gold-threaded cedar. He pointed at the window and asked, "You should all be able to see that the texture of this material is very beautiful, right?"
Everyone nodded in agreement.
"Then tell me, what kind of pattern is this?" Elder Tang was not in a hurry to answer everyone's questions. Instead, he asked a question of his own.
Liang Weimin said uncertainly, "Uncle, it should be water ripples!"
At this moment, another relative of the Liang family frowned and said, "I think it looks like a gall …"
In fact, whether it was the water ripples mentioned by Liang Weimin or the gall mentioned by the other person, it was already very precious for it to appear on the golden-threaded cedar. This showed that the golden-threaded cedar wood was distributed in patches to form such a pattern. Otherwise, there would only be sparse golden-threaded cedar wood.
However, neither the ripples nor the gall were enough to increase the value of this material by more than six times.
Elder Tang faintly smiled and said, "What you two said is quite close, but neither of you is correct!"
"Uncle, this is …" Liang Weimin asked.
Elder Tang pointed at the pattern on the material and said, "First of all, this is definitely not a gall. A gall is formed by a lesion. However, this cedar wood was very healthy when it was growing. There was no lesion at all. As long as you look at it carefully, you will know that these are naturally formed patterns."
Then, Elder Tang said, "In fact, this is already a cloud pattern. Although it looks a bit like water ripples, its texture is smaller than water ripples. It is like a cloud and is very irregular. Look at this position. Doesn't it look like the scene of lightning and thunder?"
Liang Weimin and the others looked at the position Elder Tang was pointing at. After looking carefully, they all nodded.
Elder Tang smiled and said, "The value of the cloud pattern material is much higher than the water ripples! And this is only the tip of the iceberg … "
Then, Elder Tang pointed to the other positions of the wood and said, "There are more than thirty lumps on it. The few lumps that have been opened up now are only relatively small ones. I have reason to believe that if the whole piece of wood is opened up, it will give me a lot of surprises. There might even be a high quality big wave!"
Liang Weimin and the others couldn't help but reveal a shocked expression. If there was really a high quality big wave pattern, then the price of ten million USD was really not expensive. In fact, it was too cheap!
This was because the big wave pattern could be said to be the best among the gold-rimmed cedar wood patterns. It was like a stormy sea, and the golden silk was fine like Jiangnan silk. It had the majestic momentum of the waves, and it also had a charming and charming visual impact.
The people present had never seen such a high quality material because it was too rare. They had only seen it in pictures.
However, even if they looked at the pictures, they could feel the strong visual impact.
In fact, for such a large piece of material with such fine cloud patterns, it was basically worth 10 million US dollars. Of course, this price would only be reached at an auction.
However, if the core material that was hidden within the bark and sapwood could have even more beautiful textures, then the price that Elder Tang offered really wasn't considered expensive.
After listening to Elder Tang's explanation, everyone looked at Xia Ruofei with envious eyes.
Liang Weihua and Liang Xiaojun were so jealous that they were about to go crazy.
Not only did Xia Ruofei ruin their good fortune, but now he was going to make ten million USD. How could the father and son calm down?
At the same time, Liang Weihua was also a little scared. If Elder Tang had really pushed the boat with the current and made him pay the extra money, then he would have had to bleed a lot.
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Elder Tang is really open and aboveboard. In fact, if you didn't say it, we wouldn't have been able to see the mystery of these patterns. You didn't have to offer such a high price …"
Elder Tang said, "Doing business is based on integrity. Brother Xia, I'm sure you know that I bought this Gold Silk Nanmu to make my own longevity material! If I took it by deceit, how could I lie in it peacefully after a hundred years? "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but laugh when he heard this. This Elder Tang was really a wonderful person.
"How is it? Is Brother Xia satisfied with this price? " Elder Tang asked with a smile, "Of course, you can also choose to open a few more windows. If there really are higher quality rare patterns, then we can discuss the price."
Xia Ruofei waved his hand without hesitation and said, "No need! If it weren't for the episode just now, I would have sold it for ten million Huaxia dollars. It's already very good to get six times the money now. People still have to be content! "
Grandpa Tang laughed and said, "Be content with what you have! Brother Xia, you have a good attitude! "
"Elder Tang, then it's settled!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "From now on, this material is yours."
"Thank you! Thank you! "Elder Tang was overjoyed.
After that, Elder Tang motioned for his assistant to bring the checkbook over.
