Chapter 159
Chapter 159
Divine grass, in fact, is a mallet, well-known ginseng!!
If the tiger is the king of beasts, then ginseng is the king of herbs!!
As one of the top Chinese herbal medicines in China, the status of ginseng has never changed in the history of thousands of years in China and even the entire East Asian circle, in the past, it has always been the exclusive supply of the court, especially the old ginseng, that is even the emperor extravagant existence! !
You can’t buy it for much money!!
Many people believe that ginseng can last life! ~!
In the previous life, Xia Feng saw the best quality ginseng, the year is more than 70 years, the starting price is as high as 5 million, the final transaction price is unknown, I only heard that a certain big man came forward, leaving aside the auction and private negotiations with the seller – the sale.
You know, those auctions are not fuel-saving lamps, the treasures auctioned every year are in hundreds of millions, and they will pump water from them every time they are auctioned.
To make the greedy capitalist back down and allow the buyer to trade directly with the seller in private, you can imagine how terrifying the energy of that big man is!!
That’s not simply a matter of money, and monstrous power!!
Therefore, in order to earn huge wealth, people have long turned over the areas rich in ginseng.
For example, in the well-known Changbai Mountain area, almost every inch of land has been explored.
Wild ginseng is almost extinct!!
Although the current era is not as exaggerated as later generations, after so many years of picking, wild ginseng is extremely scarce.
The entire Xiaohe Village could not find a professional to carry big leaves, and all the ginseng diggers usually do other things, and only enter the mountains in their spare time.
Xia Feng carefully cleaned the dirt and snow from the tree trunk, and what appeared in front of the two was a pattern that looked carved out of a knife and axe.
Wang Erzhu lowered his head and looked at it carefully, the pattern looked blurry, so he asked: “Boss, what is the scratch on this??” ”
Xia Feng knew that Wang Erzhu had never touched the line of Fangshan, had never dug ginseng, and naturally did not know the rules inside.
After confirming it repeatedly, he definitely said: “This is an old omen!!” ”
Old signs, it is also a sign, this is the jargon in the circle of ginseng diggers, some older generation of ginseng diggers after digging ginseng, will choose a large tree nearby, with a knife and axe to engrave some relatively simple information on it, such as this time there are a total of several people in the mountain, how big ginseng was dug up, and there are also specific years, months and days engraved on the lower right, in order to communicate information to the later mountain-releasing people.
This is related to the growth habits of ginseng.
As the saying goes: there is nothing to keep the old signs, and the children and grandchildren are fed!
Every year in August, the top of the ginseng stem will grow into spikes of ginseng seeds, which are red and bright red, called red hammers.
Ginseng diggers rely on distinguishing red hammers to confirm the location of ginseng.
After these ginseng seeds reach a certain level of maturity, some will be eaten by birds, and some will fall nearby.
Therefore, wherever ginseng has been produced, if there are no accidents, new ginseng will grow every few years.
And this kind of place is also called Samko.
The longer the ginseng has existed, the more likely it is to have big goods!!
Xia Feng grabbed a handful of snow and rubbed it the trunk, carefully discerning the information on it: “This seems to be left in 1911.” ”
“In 1911,” Wang Erzhu calculated in his heart, “Shhh! ”
“Doesn’t this have to be close to 70 years?!”
“Well, this vintage is quite rare.” Xia Feng did not expect to see the nearly 70-year-old ginsengzi, you know, today is different.
As with hunting, many newcomers simply do not follow the rules left by the older generation.
If anyone discovers the old man, he must be tight-lipped, and even in order to keep the secret, he will not hesitate to destroy the old omen! ! !
Xia Feng continued to look down, because it was too long, and the information recorded on the trunk was not clear in some places, but it still interpreted the words “Six Pins Leaf”.
The few leaves mentioned here refer to the fact that ginseng has several palmate leaves.
As the growth years increase, ginseng will grow more petioles, each with 5 palmate leaves.
Those with only 5 leaves are Yipin leaves, also called slap; 10 leaves called dijiazi; The 15 leaves are called lampstands, and more are four-pin leaves, five-rank leaves, and six-pin leaves.
Therefore, experienced people can judge how much ginseng age has reached according to the number of ginseng leaves, and how many leaves it is.
The six-pin leaf is already considered a treasure among ginseng!!
This made Xia Feng can’t help but look forward to it.
Because the old ginseng that has produced good ginseng is very likely to produce good ginseng again!!
This is not feudal superstition, it has a basis in fact.
Ginseng is a plant that is very spiritual, and it seems to pay attention to the right time and place!
For example, later generations of developed science and technology, in the Changbai Mountain generation, many ginseng farmers were artificially planting ginseng.
Hundreds, thousands, even tens of thousands at a time!!
However, after countless verifications, people were surprised to find that artificially grown ginseng and wild ginseng look similar, but in fact they are not comparable at all.
For example, in one of the places where the difference is the largest, artificially grown ginseng does not grow much.
After it grows to a certain number of years, it will automatically wither, instead of growing up to 10, 20, 30, or even longer like some wild ginseng!
This puzzled many farmers.
It’s all plants, how can the difference be so big ??
Until later, someone came up with a tricky method, that is, to find the old man, and then throw the ginseng seeds into it, and after making a mark, they would never care about it again.
This seemingly self-deceptive method turned out to work!!
It does prolong the survival time of those ginsengs!!
Although it is still not comparable to real wild ginseng, it is much better than the kind of ginseng that grows in the ginseng field.
Doesn’t it feel unscientific? The ginseng farmers serve carefully, and the ginseng that sprinkles water and fertilizes is not large.
On the contrary, wild boys who sleep in the wild and are either dry or waterlogged thrive.
Just change the environment, the change is so big, it is strange.
But the fact is that ginseng is very controversial in modern medicine.
Western medicine could not understand why ginseng had such high medicinal value from the beginning, after all, from the perspective of composition alone, ginseng is not necessarily better than some plants.
The topic is far away.
After Xia Feng confirmed that he had not missed the information, he pulled Wang Erzhu back a few steps, and he was not too dirty. (Read violent novels, just go to Feilu Fiction Network!) )
I found three random regular stones of similar size, and then knelt down on the spot.
Grass for fragrance and leaves for paper.
This is the first thing that a mountain herder should do after entering the mountain.
However, the summer wind they originally came to hunt, and it was not an offense to add it later.
“Grandmaster Sun Liang, the old head of the mountain god, I hope you can bless us to dig up good ginseng…”
The “ancestor master” and “mountain god old man” mentioned here actually refer to the same person – Sun Liang.
In the line of Fangshan, he is a recognized ancestor, and the title of “Old Master of the Mountain God” is rumored to have been canonized by the Kangxi Emperor himself!!
After praying, Xia Feng began to look for ginseng.
Ginseng is a delicate spiritual object, not resistant to cold or waterlogging, and its temperament is like shade, but it cannot be completely without sunlight, especially the old ones that can grow large goods, and the environment is definitely top.
The summer breeze scanned left and right, and soon found that not far away there was a small mountain depression, which was full of pine, birch, ash and other species, a typical coniferous and broad mixed forest.
This is also a favorite environment for ginseng.
Xia Feng stepped forward and took a stick and poked into the soil, unlike the hard soil around it that had not completely thawed, it was very soft, and when plucked up, you could clearly see that it brought out a lot of brown rot.
Those are the nutrient soil accumulated in this forest in recent years, such as dead leaves, dead grass, animal carcasses, etc., piled up and decayed, which is the best soil for plants.
The northeast black soil, which is famous throughout the country and is known to be able to pinch oil, evolved from these.
“That’s it!!”
Xia Feng put the thing down, made a color towards Wang Erzhu, turned around and picked up a branch, and knocked on a tree nearby.
“Mountain god Eh~ There are guests coming to the door, open the door~”
Wang Erzhu immediately continued: “The door is open~”
The melodious voice echoed through the valley and reached the top of the mountain next door.
On another hill, a group of five people led three dogs, chasing their prey.
One of them was still an old acquaintance, but he was less than one meter and seven meters tall, did not carry an invading knife, but carried a large axe on his back, and the Type 56 semi-automatic rifle in his hand was obviously held, but it gave people a sense of violation with a soil troll.
Put it before liberation, proper mountain bandits!!
This person is Zhao Ertao!!
When I heard a voice in the distance, I heard one of them laugh and said, “I don’t know which Tunzi’s tiger is it, and it began to release the mountain in March.” ”
“Yes, I don’t even have a red hammer in these years, so I went to find ginseng with my stomach and eyes.”
“Eighty percent is poor and crazy.”
“I really can’t afford to live this year, it’s better to hunt, at least there is no shortage of meat to eat.”
“Yes, my family still let me go to the mountains in the fall, isn’t this nonsense.”
“….”
A few people, you said a word, and chattered there.
Only Zhao Eryu’s brows frowned slightly, and he always felt that the sound just now was somewhat familiar.
But there is some uncertainty.
After all, in his impression, Brother Xia Feng should not do such a shameless thing.
As several others have said, the mountain release begins after autumn.
At that time, the ginseng seeds were ripe red, towering high, very conspicuous in the grass, and could be seen from half the mountain with good eyes.
And at the moment, the grass has not yet opened, the ginseng seedlings have just emerged, and the green is completely submerged in the humus soil layer, and you can’t see it at all, how to find this??
Don’t say that worshipping the mountain god is the boss, even if you worship the mountain god, it is not easy to make it! ! !
“Could it be that the sound is too far away and misheard??”
Just when Zhao Erchu doubted his listening fork.
After a while, another voice came:
“The key to the mountain~”
The key to opening the mountain refers to finding the second grade leaf ginseng! Then!.
