Invincible Witch Doctor King

Chapter 11 Wild Ginseng

"Zhao Tian, ​​what's in your bag? Medicine? I think it must be a good thing, a century-old mountain ginseng? How about showing it to us?"

The State of Song made another plan after failing to make a plan. Didn't Xie Jin say that Zhao Tian was a herb picker?Then see what kind of medicine you can come up with, if it's good, forget it, if it's just an ordinary medicine, then you're welcome, just step on it.

Who am I provoking?

Zhao Tian looked at Xie Manting helplessly, but found that she was sitting as if nothing to do with her, as if she didn't know that Song Guo was targeting him.

"Oh? Is it something extraordinary? Thousand-year-old Polygonum multiflorum? I ate the kind that can open up the two veins of Ren and Du, so I don't want us to see it? Hahaha!"

Song Guo sneered, Zhao Tian was holding a black plastic bag, it's no wonder there were good things in it.

"Do you really want to see?"

Even the clay figurines were angry, not to mention that Zhao Tian was only eighteen or nineteen years old, and his face sank immediately.

"It's a fool who doesn't want to look at it! Zhao Tian, ​​if there's something good, let's have a look. Don't worry, if it's good, I'll offer you a good price."

Song Guo pursued closely, staring at Zhao Tian.

Zhao Tian put the bag on the tea table, opened it, took out the medicinal materials inside, and laid them out one by one, then looked up at Song Guo without saying a word.

"Hahaha!"

Song Guo couldn't help being amused when he saw the medicinal materials Zhao Tian took out, and laughed loudly, and said, "I thought it was something good, but it turned out to be angelica, safflower, and sumac... Could it be that you are here to buy it?" Picked from a [-]-meter cliff? Besides, I don’t think the quality of these things is very good? Man Ting won’t collect such garbage here.”

"This... is actually not the medicine I picked, but I found it in the medicine collected by Man Ting's house."

Zhao Tian touched his nose, and looked at Song Guo with an expression of watching the show.

Song Guo was dumbfounded.I just said that the angelica that Zhao Tian took out was garbage, and that Xie Manting's house would not accept it. In a blink of an eye, Zhao Tian said that it was actually picked from the medicinal materials collected by Xie Manting's house. His face was really hot.

But the words have been spoken and can never be taken back.

"Hehehe, thank you old man, you know the purpose of my coming here today, how about it, are you willing to sell the thing in your hand?"

Song Ding coughed, put down the teacup in his hand, and showed a forced smile on his face. He was very unclear about Song Guo's thoughts, but now that the general was going to be tricked, he could only change the subject.

When Wang Shi heard this, his face suddenly became serious, "Mr. Xie, you also know the purpose of my visit today. As long as the things are right, the price is not a problem. You know that."

"Humph!"

Song Ding sneered, turned his head to stare at Wang Shi, and said, "Boss Wang, don't be so loud, in this world, you are not the only one who can afford money, nor are you the only one who knows a few rich people. "

Wang Shi pretended to be a fool to run on himself just now, but he kept it in his heart.

"This matter is very simple, the highest price wins!"

Wang Shi's face turned cold, "If I, Wang Shi, don't have enough money, naturally I won't put an extra fart."

"Hehehe."

Xie Xian smiled and waved his hands, and said: "Old man Song, Boss Wang, don't get angry, no matter what, there is always a solution, don't you think? Everyone is in the circle, see you when you look up, don't get hurt Peaceful."

Zhao Tian curled his lips. Although Xie Xian said it nicely, he actually wished that Wang Shi and Song Ding would pick each other up - so that the things in his hand could be bought at a good price.

"Xie Xian, don't tell me what you have or what you don't have, just tell me directly, is that ginseng in your hand sold or not?"

Song Ding glared at Xie Xian and waved his hand.

"This... I mean old man Song, where did you get the news from?"

Xie Xian frowned.

"Xie Lao, do you still want to deny this matter?"

Wang Shi became anxious when he heard that, although he and Song Ding were about to become competitors, if Xie Xian insisted that he did not receive the old mountain ginseng, then there would be no chance at all, and Tun Shi would stand on the same front as Song Ding , "forcing" Xie Xian to admit the matter first.

"This...Of course not. I did buy an old ginseng some time ago, but not many people know about it...so I'm a little curious about where you got the news from."

Not many people know?

This is simply not the case.

Xie Xian's face remained calm, but he was even more puzzled in his heart. He collected the wild ginseng from a visitor from other places. When he collected it, there was no one else but himself. How did Wang Shi and Song Ding know this? information?

If he didn't say it himself, the only possibility is that the participant said it - but he is a foreigner, and he is carrying the 20 he gave him, so isn't he worried about revealing the truth?

Wang Shi was relieved when he saw Xie Xian admit it. He was entrusted by a rich man to buy an old wild ginseng. Old man, look at what you said... We are all people who have been in the circle for many years, so we must grow ears? How about doing business?"

"Thank you, old man, that thing is useless in your hands, so you can just sell it—take it out and have a look."

"Yes, yes, Mr. Xie, even if we can't agree on the price in the end, we still have to learn from each other, so it's not a waste of time, right?"

Xie Xian hesitated for a moment, finally nodded and said, "Okay, wait a moment."

Zhao Tian turned his head to look at Xie Manting, and made a gesture. He remembered that Xie Manting had come to him to see the old wild ginseng that was newly harvested by her family, and thought, could it be this one?
Xie Manting nodded slightly.

The actions of Zhao Tian and Xie Manting fell into the eyes of Song Guo, and immediately aroused another wave of anger, but he just made a fool of himself, so he didn't dare to sarcasm immediately, but he secretly vowed in his heart that if he had the opportunity, he would definitely do it a hundred times. Get back your humiliation.

Zhao Tian frowned, thinking that since there was something wrong with the mountain ginseng, why would Xie Xian make a move?You must know that old mountain ginseng is not an ordinary thing, but you have to eat it in your stomach. Once there is a problem, it will be a lot of fun.

Xie Xian is not a "salesman" who shoots a gun and changes places. If something happens, he will definitely be found on his head.

It is impossible for Xie Xian not to understand such a truth.

"I'll have to find a way to persuade old man Xie later."

Zhao Tian secretly made up his mind.

Xie Xian came back soon. When he came back, he was holding a one-meter-long brocade box in his hand. After getting down, he carefully opened the lid.

"This is the old mountain ginseng I received some time ago, please take a look."

As soon as Xie Xian finished speaking, Wang Shi, Song Ding and Zhao Tian couldn't help standing up and looking at the box.

Ginseng is also called yellow ginseng and goblin. In the Northeast, it is called the "Three Treasures of Northeast China" together with mink fur and Uralia grass. On deep brown forest soils or mountain grayed brown forest lands.

The earliest surviving Chinese pharmacy monograph "Shen Nong's Materia Medica" said: "Ginseng, sweet and slightly cold, mainly nourishes the five internal organs, calms the spirit, calms the soul, stops panic, eliminates evil spirits, improves eyesight, and improves intelligence. Long-term use, light body and prolonged Year. One title, one ghost cover. Born in the valley."

In the "Compendium of Materia Medica", it is believed that it can "cure all deficiencies in men and women".

A ginseng plant was placed in the box Xie Xian opened.

The main body of ginseng is not long, only about one finger long, but the whiskers are extremely long, and the box of about one meter cannot be fully unfolded. Zhao Tian estimated that it should be more than two meters long.

"This thing... looks very good, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it."

Zhao Tian was even more puzzled.

There are many classifications of ginseng. For example, it can be divided into American ginseng, Korean ginseng, and Chinese ginseng according to the place of origin. It can also be divided into raw sun-dried ginseng and red ginseng according to different processing methods. According to the growth mode, it can be divided into three categories, garden ginseng, forest ginseng and wild ginseng.

The so-called garden ginseng refers to the ginseng planted by artificial seeding. The ginseng farmer means that the person who grows ginseng will find a piece of land in the forest, plant it manually, and then take care of it. Generally speaking, it will be harvested in 3-6 years.

Under-forest ginseng refers to the ginseng that is artificially planted in a mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forest composed of trees, shrubs, and weeds. There is no artificial intervention, and the ginseng that grows purely naturally. The difference between under-forest ginseng and garden ginseng is that the former is artificially sown. It will no longer interfere, and let it grow freely, that is, to fend for itself. As for the latter, it will be taken care of by Cannon during the whole growth process.

Wild ginseng, also known as wild ginseng, is a purely natural ginseng, without any human participation in the whole growth process from sowing.

Needless to say, the cheapest of these three types of ginseng is garden ginseng, while the most expensive is wild ginseng.Perhaps in some people's eyes, the identification of these three kinds of ginseng will be more complicated, but in fact it is not so, even to a certain extent it can be said to be very simple.

Because garden ginseng is grown in ginseng farmers, fertilization will be applied during the whole process, so it will naturally grow larger. Those ginseng that look like small radishes on the market don’t need to look too much, they are probably garden ginseng.

Under-forest ginseng is generally allowed to grow naturally for 15 years. Due to the longer growth time, such under-forest ginseng is closer to wild ginseng in terms of quality, but there are still differences. Generally speaking, real wild ginseng will be more Thin, as if malnourished, and the skin color is very dark. Although under-forest ginseng also has dark skin, it is not difficult for people who have seen real wild ginseng to distinguish.

The old mountain ginseng that Xie Xian took out is very similar to wild mountain ginseng, at least it is also a forest ginseng that has grown for many years. At least Zhao Tian can't see anything wrong with it at a glance.
