The super-rich started by winning one million.

Chapter 244 Fake Haihuanghuali Furniture Bought for 680 Million
Yi Anguo arrived at Anguo Furniture Factory today. Yi Xiaolin and Yi Xiaoman were waiting at the factory gate early to greet him.

Today's Anguo Furniture Factory is no longer what it used to be. Although the site was large in the past, the factory building was very small and looked lonely. There was only a dormitory building, a factory building, and an office building.

The rest are production workshops and warehouses built with iron sheets and tile houses.

But now we can no longer see large open spaces, nor can we see any iron-roofed houses. They are all buildings with the same appearance design as hotels. They are very beautiful, clean and tidy. When passing by outside, you can see It doesn't even look like a furniture factory, but rather like a high-end hotel.

This design was proposed by Yi Anguo because he knew that with the continuous economic development of Shenzhen Town, enterprises such as furniture factories would be forced to relocate sooner or later. Strictly speaking, furniture factories are also polluters that do not meet environmental standards. Enterprises of this type are destined to be eliminated in Shenzhen City.

Yi Anguo has also chosen another place in Dongguan City next door, bought a large piece of land, and is building a new Anguo furniture factory.

The land in the east management area is larger than here. Because I bought it earlier, the price is not expensive.

The factory over there has almost been built, but the factory here in Shenzhen will still be used. Now Anguo Furniture's business is very good, so there is no need to worry about no orders, so no matter how big the factories on both sides are, there is no need to worry. It will be left empty and wasted.

"Take me to the mahogany wood warehouse. How much big-leaf rosewood is there in stock now?"

As soon as Yi Anguo arrived at the Anguo Furniture Factory, he said to Yi Xiaolin and Yi Xiaoman.

"There is still a lot of big-leaf red sandalwood in stock, but recently there have been more orders for big-leaf red sandalwood, and consumption is also fast. Recently, the market price of big-leaf red sandalwood has remained high. It has risen to 25 per ton, and it seems that it is still The trend is continuing to rise, and I was just about to ask you, do you want to stock up on some more big-leaf rosewood wood?"

"At the current consumption rate, how long can the large-leaf rosewood wood in our inventory be consumed?" Yi Anguo thought for a moment and asked.

"At the current rate, it will probably last two or three years. It should not take more than three years at most before our inventory of big-leaf red sandalwood will be exhausted." Yi Xiaolin said.

"And now the furniture orders for Daye Rosewood seem to be increasing faster and faster, so maybe if we don't buy them for two years, the inventory will be exhausted."

"I just don't know if the price of big-leaf rosewood will continue to rise in the future. If it continues to rise and we don't have inventory now, our costs will be very high by then."

"But the current price is already so expensive. If the price drops by then and we purchase inventory now, we will suffer a big loss in the future."

"Two or three years have passed. The price of big-leaf red sandalwood is already very high now, and it will definitely fall in price in the future. So we don't need to buy anymore now, and we have to take advantage of the current good market to sell it as soon as possible. Make it into furniture and sell it." Yi Anguo nodded and said.

"How can you be so sure? The price of small-leaf red sandalwood is also skyrocketing now! There are more and more wealthy people, but I feel that the possibility of a sharp drop in the future is slim." Yi Xiaolin said with disapproval.

"Of course I have my own reasons for making this prediction. Do you know why the price of big-leaf red sandalwood is getting higher and higher?" Yi Anguo said with a smile.

"That's because many people replace small-leaf red sandalwood with big-leaf red sandalwood. Small-leaf red sandalwood is too expensive and ordinary people can't afford it, so they can only play big-leaf red sandalwood instead."

"Big-leaf rosewood comes from the islands of Madagascar, an African island country. The exact period when it entered our country should be around 1996."

"Because it has been identified as red sandalwood by some domestic experts for quite some time."

“Because its name is only one word different from the small-leaf rosewood, its price has soared since entering the country, surpassing Siamese rosewood and Cochin rosewood, and it is highly respected by consumers and players.”

“Although it was later confirmed by scientific testing that it was not rosewood and was classified as a black rosewood species of the Dalbergia genus in the National Rosewood Standard, its price has skyrocketed and has been unable to come down.”

"The price of big-leaf red sandalwood logs may even reach a peak of over 30 per ton, putting it beyond the reach of many materials."

“Although it is not red sandalwood and is also classified as black rosewood, it does not prevent it from being sought after by some friends who like wood and hope that it can create the next red sandalwood myth.”

"It also stems from the fact that the appearance of large-leaf rosewood is relatively close to small-leaf rosewood, but the biggest visual difference between it and small-leaf rosewood is: 1. Its density is lower than that of small-leaf rosewood, and the oiliness of the wood is poor."

"Second, he can barely see the iconic cow hair pattern and Venus pattern of red sandalwood, but the surface is distributed with slender brown eyes."

"Third, the black veins of large-leaf rosewood are more than those of small-leaf rosewood, and they are very visible. The appearance of many woods is black and yellow stripes, which is quite different from the deep purple color of small-leaf rosewood."

"With the decrease in market demand, the increase in knowledge about wood, and the failure of using big-leaf rosewood to replace small-leaf rosewood, the biggest possibility in the future is that the market price of big-leaf rosewood will be cut in half, and this will create wealth. The mythical story will also come to an end."

"In the future, the market price of big-leaf red sandalwood will be below 10, or even lower, and may be as low as 5."

"Is it that exaggerated?" Yi Xiaolin was startled, took a breath of cold air and said.

"This is no exaggeration at all. Except for rare woods such as sea huanghuali and Vietnamese huanghuali, it is not surprising that the price of any wood has plummeted and halved."

"Let alone big-leaf rosewood, even if it is small-leaf rosewood, the price will fall back in the future."

"Now their prices are just artificially high." Yi Anguo said.

"When the price of big-leaf red sandalwood is cut in half or even lower in the future, those who play with big-leaf red sandalwood will suffer a loss in their own hands."

"Since the large-leaf red sandalwood in stock can still last for two or three years, there is no need for us to buy any more, lest it be in our own hands."

As a reborn person who has been in the mahogany furniture industry for many years, Yi Anguo is very familiar with the development trend of big-leaf red sandalwood.

From 2010 to the end of 2013, it was the highlight moment of big-leaf red sandalwood. The price of aniseed material was more than 30 per ton. More than ten years later, the price of big-leaf finger-picked material was only 5 per ton, and the price of small material was only 2 per ton. Only tons are needed.

On the contrary, the Laotian Siamese rosewood is not as good as it now. More than ten years later, the price of large-sized sheets will be as high as 800 million per ton, medium-sized materials will cost 15- per ton, and small materials like firewood will cost . A ton.

Nowadays, the Siamese rosewood in Laos, although the large materials and sheets are also very expensive, they only cost more than 4 or per ton, and the medium materials cost more than per ton. Even the small materials, like firewood, cost In case it’s a ton.

But this price has increased by ten or twenty times compared to 08.

Yi Anguo has been producing Siamese rosewood furniture, including some rosewood furniture, commonly known as Huazhi. At the same time, he has not stopped and continues to purchase Siamese rosewood and Huazhi wood. Because the price of these mahogany lumber will rise sharply in the future, including the rosewood branches that currently only cost more than 10 yuan per ton, the price of aniseed and sheet materials will also skyrocket to more than yuan per ton, and the medium-term material will cost to yuan per ton.

Moreover, Siamese rosewood and red rosewood furniture are particularly easy to sell and the profits are considerable, so they are not sold in limited quantities.

The only high-quality products sold are sea huanghuali and Vietnamese huanghuali. It can be said that these two types of wood are used a little, but less, especially sea huanghuali. Now it is too difficult to purchase tons of sea huanghuali wood. Difficult.

Especially the aniseed, flat and old materials of sea huanghuali have been collected by private individuals and are difficult to buy even if you have money.

And now the market price of sea huanghuali wood has reached as high as 200 million, or even tens of millions per ton. The price of Vietnamese huanghuali has also soared to hundreds of millions per ton. Good aniseed sheets are even more expensive. It has reached million per ton.

However, this has not yet reached the highest price. In a few years, the price of sea rosewood will rise to more than 3000 million per ton, and the highest price may even exceed 4000 million per ton, and it is still the kind that has a price but no market.

The future market value of Vietnamese huanghuali will reach tens of millions per ton.

Due to the popularity of rosewood furniture in the domestic market, Shanghai rosewood has almost become extinct and is basically difficult to buy, so everyone has started to hype up Vietnamese rosewood.

The amount of hot money entering Vietnam to purchase Vietnamese huanghuali this year has exceeded 2 billion, and may reach 3 billion.

And now there is a practice called gambling on wood. Assuming a Vietnamese huanghuali tree, before it is sawed down, the price of purchasing this huanghuali tree is only one-third of the normal price.

If after this Vietnamese huanghuali tree is sawed down, the center of the tree is not empty and can be used to make aniseed and sheets, then you will make a lot of money.

But if the core of the Vietnamese huanghuali tree is hollow and rotten after being sawed down, then you may suffer a big loss.

Many newbies who don’t know the ropes like this method of betting on wood.

Vietnamese huanghuali is divided into northern material and southern material. The northern material is closest to the characteristics of sea huanghuali. Therefore, many domestic merchants will buy the northern material of Vietnamese huanghuali and make Vietnamese huanghuali furniture, passing it off as sea huanghuali. Huanghuali furniture for sale.

A couple purchased a single-board wooden bed made of huanghuali for 680 million. However, knowledgeable friends discovered that it was furniture made from Vietnamese huanghuali.

The market price of furniture made from Vietnamese huanghuali is only 80 yuan at this time.

The couple was so angry that they took the merchant to court, but in the end they lost the lawsuit.

The reason for this embarrassing situation is that the identification standards for huanghuali are not included in the mahogany standards.

The National Redwood Standard, which was formulated by the China Forestry Research Institute over two years and released in 2000, stipulates that furniture made of 5 species of wood in 8 genera and 33 categories can be called redwood furniture.

The mahogany materials listed are all wood species that exist on the market and have been used in ancient mahogany furniture. Vietnamese huanghuali, which has similar physical properties to Hainan huanghuali, is included in the standard and is called fragrant branch wood. Dalbergia tree species.

However, the most precious sea huanghuali was not included in the standard. The main person in charge of formulating the standard later revealed that during the actual inspection, it was found that the sea huanghuali was no longer on the market, so it was not included in the standard.

And it is said that, except for real antiques, all current trade in Hainan Huanghuali is in a "grey area" and is strictly illegal.

According to the Qionghai Provincial Forestry Department, so far, Qionghai Province has not approved a timber trading market with the right to trade Qionghai’s wild huanghuali, nor has it approved a processing plant with the qualifications to process wild huanghuali. At the same time, There is no approved grower that legally collects directly from wild huanghuali trees in Hainan.

It is precisely because of this that the couple lost their lawsuit against the merchant.

It is absolutely difficult to buy some aniseed materials and sheets to make Haihuanghuali furniture, even if you have money.

Nowadays, the small amount of sea yellow rosewood furniture produced by Anguo Furniture Factory is basically placed in various specialty stores as a store treasure.

Yi Xiaoman and Yi Xiaolin went deep into the Li village in Qionghai Province and purchased a large amount of yellow rosewood. They also purchased a lot of old furniture made by local people using sea yellow rosewood, and even some farm furniture. All the farm tools were purchased by them.

Nowadays, the materials used are basically dismantled old furniture and remade into Haihuanghuali furniture.

Although the price of sea yellow rosewood has not yet reached its highest point, furniture made of sea yellow rosewood is still very expensive. Ordinary people cannot afford it. Even ordinary rich people can't afford it. Can't afford it.

In addition to being displayed to the public in specialty stores as a treasure of the store, because the price is too high, not many people are willing to spend money to buy it.

But Yi Anguo doesn't want to sell these rosewood furniture at a low price. Many people may think that the price is a bit too high now, but in a few years, everyone will not think so.

Some of the purchased sea rosewood furniture has a certain history, but it is just old folk furniture. It is naturally incomparable with the old furniture from the Ming and Qing Dynasties that came out of the palace.

However, there are some old folk furniture made of rosewood from Qionghai Province, which still have high collection value.

Huanghuali, also known as "Delbergia rosewood" in Chinese, is recognized as the top raw wood for furniture because of its hard wood, clear and unique texture, and its ability to emit a light, refreshing fragrance on cloudy days.

At the same time, Dalbergia Dalbergia is also a valuable traditional Chinese medicine. This wood is called Dalbergia Dalbergia and Antihypertensive Wood in the "Compendium of Materia Medica". It has medicinal value of relaxing muscles and activating blood circulation. It is the main component of safflower oil.

Furniture made of huanghuali wood is natural, does not require paint, and can last for thousands of years without deformation, cracking, bending, or decay, regardless of the cold or heat.

What’s even more amazing is that natural patina can form over time, and the color will become more beautiful. Therefore, Huanghuali furniture also has the reputation of "the king of Chinese classical furniture".

But now, the meaning of the three words Huanghuali has gone far beyond that...

Before Yi Anguo was reborn, he had read an article introducing two autumn auctions held by two internationally renowned auction companies in November and December 2010.

It was these two autumn auctions that completely triggered the domestic enthusiasm for collecting rosewood furniture.
