A curious fan asked.

"Brother Xuan, those trees outside look so old. What kind of trees are they? Are they some kind of rare species?"

Push open a window.

A drone flew out to film the trees outside.

I couldn't see clearly from the entrance.

This made it clear to everyone.

Someone who knew the answer then sent a message.

"No way, this is a small-leaf sandalwood tree."

'Wow, it really is.'

'This is nothing, I have one at home too.'

"Yes, you have one at home, but you probably don't have a 500-year-old rosewood tree."

This statement shocked many people.

"The person upstairs isn't mistaken, is they?"

'I specialize in this, how could I be wrong? This one is definitely five hundred years old.'

What is the price of this one?

'It's uncertain, but as long as there's no gap in the middle, the value won't be low.'

Gu Xuan explained with a smile.

"None of the trees outside will be hollow."

'That's amazing.'

Many people don't believe it.

"That doesn't seem right. I've studied it; these trees tend to become hollow after a certain number of years."

That's right.

"Brother Xuan, the trees here are about 500 years old. I bet the hollows in the middle are huge."

Many people think so.

After all, this situation is very likely to occur for small-leaf sandalwood.

Of course, there will also be situations where there is no central control unit.

But this situation is not common.

After all, the saying "nine out of ten sandalwood trees are hollow" is not without merit; sandalwood will become hollow after a certain number of years.

But the small-leaf sandalwood here at Guxuan is different.

Because the environment, water, and air are different from the outside world, and because of the origin of this small-leaf sandalwood, none of the surrounding sandalwood trees are hollow.

Gu Xuan explained.

"The different environment and water source here have also created the differences in the small-leaf sandalwood. The small-leaf sandalwood here will not be hollow."

He answered very affirmatively.

Some fans started to believe it.

But some people have voiced different opinions.

'I really don't believe it. If you don't believe me, cut off a few and show us.'

'Yes. '

'That's right, cut off a few to prove it to us.'

Gu Xuan glanced at the comments and gave a cold smile.

“Chopping down a few is no problem, I’ll do it if you pay me.”

'It's just money.'

I'm out.

Seeing these comments, other fans became furious.

'This must be a hater.'

It looks like it to me.

'They're here to cause trouble.'

The other party, however, refused to back down.

'What, you won't even let me question you?'

Gu Xuan said with a cold laugh.

"I'll cut it as long as you pay me."

'Okay, name your price.'

The other party appeared to be very wealthy and powerful.

Gu Xuan quoted a price directly.

"A five-hundred-year-old tree, this one is worth around ten million. I won't rip you off, I'll just give you ten million. Which tree do you want to cut down? You can transfer the money as you wish."

After Gu Xuan finished speaking, he looked at the comments section.

The person who had just spoken seemed to have vanished.

There was no sound.

I waited a few seconds.

A fan sent a comment.

'They ran away.'

'He's just a troll who talks big, who cares?'

"With Brother Xuan's popularity rising, it's inevitable that he'll attract haters; after all, he has a lot of fans here, while there aren't many elsewhere."

Indeed, many scenic spots are seeing a decrease in visitors.

'You can't blame Brother Xuan for this; if he didn't do a good job, how many tourists would he attract?'

'That's right.'

I waited for a while but didn't see a reply from the other party.

Gu Xuan also changed the subject.

Retrieve the drone.

"As you can all see, the small-leaf sandalwood trees here are growing well, but I don't plan to cut them down. Of course, some people may like to pick some branches, and I don't object to that, as long as the trees are not damaged."

"Also, I prune its branches every year, and I believe many people know that."

After he said that, a lot of comments appeared on the screen.

"Boss Gu, I understand. Just tell me when you want it trimmed, and I'll bring the money."

'And here I am too.'

'I live nearby; I live in Haicheng.'

Some people don't understand why.

'What does this mean? I don't understand. Isn't it just pruning tree branches?'

Then someone explained it to us.

"This isn't just simple pruning; these pruned branches have a good market and can be made into bracelets. Even slightly larger ones can sell for a high price."

'You can do that?'

Forgive me, I don't quite understand.

"Many bracelets sold online are made from this material or scraps. Although the price is low, there's a large market for them."

'Indeed, and the market is huge.'

I'd like to get some of everything you've mentioned.

'Let's just leave it to the professionals.'

Gu Xuan continued to explain.

"Don't worry, these branches will be pruned this year, and I will put the suitable timber up for sale at a price that will definitely satisfy you."

Small-leaf sandalwood trees grow very slowly. However, as with any tree, some branches may grow, as well as some that fall naturally, and of course, some that block electricity.

These all need to be pruned.

This is also to allow it to grow better.

These branches are very marketable.

After all, the time limit is there.

Gu Xuan continued.

“I will be holding an auction this Sunday for porcelain, but in addition to porcelain, I also have some small-leaf sandalwood, Hainan rosewood, and of course some ebony and golden nanmu for auction.”

After saying that...

The wood merchants who were originally in the live broadcast room started to get restless.

'When will Boss Gu's item be auctioned?'

"Tentatively scheduled for Sunday evening."

'No, I need to go prepare.'

I'm leaving now.

Many people left the live stream immediately.

They all went to prepare for the auction.

Gu Xuan then led the fans in the live stream to continue their tour of the remaining rooms.

After looking at the restaurant and conference hall at the very front.

Keep going up.

There are escalators all here.

They moved slowly, climbing uphill for a while.

Then we arrived at the second floor of the Hua character.

This is the room.

However, the rooms here are all ordinary rooms; you just push open the door and enter a room.

The interior is also antique, even the restrooms are decorated with wood.

This room is also the smallest.

There was only a bed, two wooden chairs, and a small table.

All other components are working properly.

'This must be a standard room.'

It looks significantly larger than the standard rooms in those chain hotels.

'It is indeed a bit too big.'

Gu Xuan explained.

"The rooms here are indeed not big, but each room is at least 30 square meters."

Let me continue explaining.

"The rooms are located on both sides, with a passageway in the middle, and the windows on both sides offer views of the outside scenery."

I went to the window.

I saw the trees and garden outside.

"The second floor is the same, and the rooms on the first to third floors are all the same size. The rooms on the left and right sides are also the same. I won't take you to see the rest."

"Let's go straight to the third floor."

Arriving at the third floor of the Hua building, we found ourselves in a standard room as well.

The rooms on the fourth floor became suites, albeit smaller suites, with an additional small living room, a tea-drinking area, and a tea table.
