(This big chapter is still finished today with 10,000 words)
We arrived at the medicinal materials market by the river and plunged into a well-decorated Chinese medicinal materials store.
A rather handsome waiter in his twenties came up to him, "Sir, what do you want to buy?"
¡°I want to see wild ginseng, do you have any here?¡± Jiang Bian said.
As soon as Jiang Bian opened his mouth, the waiter laughed, "Wild ginseng? There really aren't many wild ginsengs nowadays. We do have some in our store, but the price is a bit high."
The waiter saw that Jiangbian looked younger than her, so it was unlikely that she could afford wild ginseng. She probably heard about the price of that kind of garden ginseng and thought that wild ginseng was very cheap.
"Oh, it's very expensive. How expensive is it?" Jiang Bian asked.
"At a recent ginseng special auction, a century-old wild ginseng weighing 30 grams sold for a sky-high price of 3 million yuan. Is it expensive? Of course, the price of wild ginseng that is not very old is generally not that high. High, but the medicinal effects are very different." Although the waiter thought that Jiangbian would not be able to afford ginseng, he patiently explained to Jiangbian.
¡°Tell me, how old are the wild ginseng in your store?¡± Jiang Bian asked.
"Where are there so many wild ginsengs now? Those with signs saying they are wild ginseng are just selling sheep's heads as dog meat. In fact, they are artificially grown. But the price is dozens of times higher than artificially grown ones. It¡¯s more than twice that.¡± said an old man next to him.
The waiter smiled awkwardly, "The wild ginseng in our store has been authenticated by authoritative departments."
"I didn't say that the ones in your store are fake, I just said that there are not many real wild ginsengs now. Young man, you'd better look carefully," the old man said with a smile.
Jiangbian nodded, "Thank you for the advice, old man. I'm just curious and asked about the price of ginseng."
When Jiangbian came in, he didn¡¯t really intend to buy ginseng, but he just asked about the price so that he could have something to say when he gets back.
Seeing what Jiang Bian said, the waiter said calmly, "If you want to see the price, you can go to the counter in front and look at it. The price is clearly marked on it."
Jiang Bian nodded, walked towards the counter, and found that there were indeed a lot of ginseng in the glass counter, all packed in very delicate boxes. These ginsengs have been dried, and their shape is very similar to the ginseng grown in space.
The price of this ginseng is indeed not low, it can easily cost several thousand, and if it is older, it can cost tens of thousands. Jiangbian looked at it, and judging from its shape, it was hard to tell whether it was wild or not.
However, Jiangbian feels that something is wrong. Although wild ginseng is buried in the soil, it cannot avoid that the epidermis will be partially damaged during the process of growing in the wild. However, the epidermis of cultivated ginseng can basically be maintained due to proper management of water and fertilizer. whole.
¡°But the wild ginseng in this store seems to be a little too complete, with no flaws from top to bottom, which makes the riverside look a bit unreal.
After taking a quick note of the prices, Jiangbian visited several pharmacies. Almost every store would have a few wild ginseng on display, which surprised Jiangbian. Is this wild ginseng so easy to find?
Of course, wild ginseng is not so easy to find. The so-called wild ginseng in this store has almost the same characteristics as the one in the previous drugstore, and even the shape seems to be carved from the same mold.
Because the growing environment of each wild ginseng is very complex, it is impossible for two wild ginseng plants to be completely identical, and it is even difficult to achieve similar shapes.
Jiangbian shook his head. It seemed that Xiao Yalin was right. This wild ginseng was not so easy to find. Fortunately, he didn't really come out to find wild ginseng, but just made an excuse.
As I walked forward by the river, I heard a salesperson in a store shouting, "Authentic wild ginseng seeds are guaranteed to be replaced if they are fake. One fake will be punished ten times. Authentic wild ginseng seeds are fake"
This shouting sound is very attractive to Jiangbian. Although Jiangbian does not know much about medicinal materials, he also knows that the ginseng in his space is not authentic wild ginseng, but some variety that has been cultivated for who knows how many years. Fortunately, the role of space is relatively powerful, and it can actually have such a great effect. What would be the effect if authentic wild ginseng seeds were planted? Jiangbian is really looking forward to it.
Jiangbian looked over there, only to find that this store actually sold Chinese medicinal seeds. In fact, many Chinese medicinal materials can also be used as ornamental crops, so the seeds are also quite marketable.
Although the salesperson shouted vigorously, she attracted no customers. I yelled for a while, but when no one paid attention, I put down the speaker angrily and pulled up a stool to sit on.down.
Jiangbian walked over quickly, "How do you sell these wild ginseng seeds?"
The salesman obviously hadn¡¯t recovered from the disappointment yet, and he didn¡¯t even hear Jiang Bian¡¯s words. He only reacted when he saw Jiang Bian squatting down and looking at the ginseng seeds.
"What did you say? Did you just tell me?" the salesperson asked.
Jiangbian nodded, "Is this ginseng seed?"
"What else could ginseng seeds look like if they weren't like this? Let me tell you, these are authentic Shandong wild ginseng seeds," the salesperson said.
¡°Are there so many wild ginseng now? Where do they get so many seeds?¡± Jiang Bian asked.
"Well, that's the thing. Although these seeds are not collected from the wild, they are authentic wild ginseng seeds, because they are offspring bred from wild ginseng seeds without any breeding technology. And now those garden seeds After years of breeding, the cultivability of ginseng has improved a lot, but the seeds are no longer pure, and the medicinal properties of the grown ginseng have naturally decreased a lot," the salesperson explained.
Jiangbian finally understood, "How do you sell wild ginseng seeds?"
"Three hundred and one catty, don't think it's expensive. Authentic wild ginseng seeds are priced at this price. This is the lowest price. If you ask elsewhere, they may give it to you for a hundred dollars per catty, but that's all It¡¯s those seeds that were bred,¡± the salesperson said.
Jiangbian nodded, "Okay, I want ten pounds."
Last time, I didn't buy all the ginseng riverside, and I still regretted it. This time, I saw the wild ginseng seeds, so I just bought them all at once. The space is constantly expanding. This time, the cultivation level should be improved a lot, so the space should be There will be relatively large room for expansion. Maybe we can plant these ginseng seeds.
This made the salesperson a little overjoyed, and he sold more than 5,000 products in one fell swoop.
But he was not satisfied yet, "I see you are someone who likes to grow Chinese medicinal materials. I have some other Chinese medicinal seeds here. Do you need them?"
Jiangbian was quite interested, "Oh, what kind of seeds are there?"
"Look at the saffron bulbs that are among the top ten precious traditional Chinese medicines. I also have them here. Look, these bulbs are so strong. One kind will definitely survive." The salesperson took out a saffron bulb and handed it to Jiangbian to see.
Where have you seen any saffron by the river? I took it in my hand and looked around, "Why does it look like a garlic ball?"
"Brother, where are your silly eyes? These are genuine saffron bulbs, not fake at all. The price is not expensive, 50 yuan per kilogram. How much do you want, brother?" the salesperson asked.
Jiangbian thought for a while and realized that the fifty-one kilograms were indeed not expensive. Of course, this was because he did not know the market conditions. In fact, the price of ordinary saffron bulbs on the market is not high now. Many people are attracted by the name of saffron. Confused.
Saffron is indeed valuable, but only saffron of a certain quality is so expensive. Ordinary saffron cannot be sold at a high price, and low-quality saffron is even worthless.
With the expansion of cultivation area, these bulbs are even cheaper.
When I compared the price of ginseng seeds to saffron bulbs by the river, I naturally felt that the saffron seeds seemed very cheap, but I didn¡¯t expect that there were only a few saffron bulbs per kilogram.
Jiangbian is a person who doesn¡¯t care much about money when he starts working, ¡°Here¡¯s twenty pounds.¡±
The salesperson almost jumped up. After a few words, he gained another thousand yuan in sales, and he even sold the product at the highest price. This time, the income is really quite a lot. Since such a person has so much money, the salesperson is naturally not willing to let him go easily.
¡°There¡¯s one more thing you can¡¯t miss,¡± the salesperson said.
Jiangbian asked, "What?"
"Do you know about Cordyceps sinensis?" the salesperson asked.
"Yeah, I know. Do you still have Cordyceps sinensis seeds here?" Jiang Bian asked.
The salesperson smiled awkwardly, "Of course not. This Cordyceps sinensis is not a grass but a fungus. It is a pseudosclerotium formed by the Cordyceps fungus parasitizing the body of the bat moth larvae, which is a mixture of mycelium and insect body. "
The salesperson paused and continued, "Therefore, cultivating insects, cultivating bacteria and cultivating grass are necessary conditions for artificial cultivation of Cordyceps sinensis. As long as these three conditions are met, Cordyceps sinensis can be grown."
The people on the riverside were confused, but he didn¡¯t understand this thing at all, ¡°Just tell me what you have here.¡±
"Okay, let me tell you"??I have ready-made seeds for these three things. If you make these three things, you can grow Cordyceps sinensis. "said the salesperson.
"How are you selling this?" Jiangbian asked.
The salesperson became even more excited when she saw what was going on, "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, it's pretty inexpensive. I don't have much stock here. I'll make a set meal and sell it to you. Just give me two thousand yuan."
Jiangbian didn¡¯t know that Cordyceps sinensis also needs another important factor, which is the climate environment. In fact, so far, no one in the world has been able to grow Cordyceps sinensis. Those so-called Cordyceps promotion are not actually Cordyceps. The unique plateau climate above the snow line of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is difficult to simulate in practical applications. Even if it can be simulated, the cost is quite high.
I spent 6,000 yuan on the riverside, but I didn¡¯t feel anything at all.
The salesperson seemed to think it was better to just accept it as soon as it was good, so after making this sale, he didn't sell anything else to Jiangbian.
And for Jiangbian, no matter how much it costs, as long as one thing is true, it is a good harvest. As for whether these things are expensive to buy, it is not very important.
Jiangbian wandered around the medicinal materials market for a while, and bought some other traditional Chinese medicine seeds. For ginseng seeds alone, he bought them from several stores. Jiangbian¡¯s idea was to wash the sand with waves, and there would always be enough to grow authentic wild ginseng.
After Jiangbian finished everything, he returned to his residence and entered the space.
Jiangbian was shocked as soon as he entered. The space suddenly became wider, covering an area as large as ten acres of land, and the pool became as narrow as a ditch.
Jiangbian is not a hard-working person at all. No matter how big the land in the space is, he has no intention of becoming a small landlord. He planned to expand the pool first, and then directly scatter the seeds he bought into it.
As for whether it can grow out, he doesn't really care. Isn't that important? The germination rate of one thousandth will not be missed. This is also the main reason why Jiangbian buys so many seeds at once.
However, how to expand the pool is a headache for the riverside. It is said that a water area of ??several acres wide can be created, and larger fish can be raised in the future. But if you have to dig a pond covering several acres of land, you can¡¯t get enough energy from the riverside.
"It would be nice if I could make this place what I want it to be." Jiangbian thought to himself, "Well, if that's the case, I can make a river wherever I go, and a mountain here. , make it flat land over there, and make a deep water area here. Make two or three acres of land, and you can put in the fishing sharks in the future."
Jiangbian was thinking, but he didn't notice that the space actually moved according to his intention. Soon, a river was formed. One side of the river grew into a hill, and the other side became a flat land. , a small lake formed at one end of the river.
The animals in the space were dumbfounded and did not dare to move. They saw that their home suddenly changed, but they did not know what was going on and looked around stupidly.
But the initiator was still building it, thinking this way and that again. As a result, the grape vines were moved four or five times, and the pear trees were moved seven or eight times. Da Jin and Xiao Jin were extremely depressed. Their home was because of that ginseng plant. He was moving east and west, and he was exhausted.
The dog generals have been lying on the ground shivering. They didn't understand that their new home, which was originally isolated from the world, suddenly became so scary.
Jiangbian didn't expect that thinking about the problem would be so troublesome today. After thinking about it for a while, the plan changed several times. He suddenly felt dizzy and fell directly into the bushes in the space, with his head facing down and his legs in the air. Quite individual. The world is finally at peace in space.
When Jiangbian woke up, four dog generals were surrounding him, licking his face affectionately with their tongues from time to time, and humming in their mouths.
Jiangbian felt a numbness in his heart, and his body rolled down from the bushes. The thorns in the bushes scratched his skin, which was painful.
Jiangbian stood up with difficulty and looked around, only to realize that he was in a strange yet familiar place. "Where is this place? Why is it so familiar?"
Jiangbian naturally knows where he is. These four dog generals are the most striking feature of the space.
"How did the space become like this?" Jiang Bian wondered in his heart.
Suddenly I remembered that when I was in a coma, wasn't it when I was imagining what the space would look like? Could it be possible to control the terrain evolution of space with thoughts?
Jiangbian is very familiar with the current shape of the space, because the space is designed according to the style of Banshan Village.Designed in a ??? shape. It¡¯s just a small mountain village
"Right." Jiang Bian patted his thigh. He still had important things to do. Jiang Bian emerged from the space, holding a bunch of ginseng taken out from the space in his hand, and put it into a plastic bag, quickly ran outside.
Looking at the sweaty riverside, Xiao Yalin chuckled, "Brother, did you buy that wild ginseng?"
Xiao Yalin naturally did not believe that Jiangbian could buy wild ginseng back so easily.
Unexpectedly, Jiangbian nodded and handed the plastic in his hand to Xiao Yalin, "Look, is it wild ginseng?"
What Jiangbian didn¡¯t notice was that the ginseng he took was a living one, and the leaves were still green.
"Hahaha" Xiao Yalin laughed while holding the bag.
Jiangbian was a little confused and looked at Xiao Yalin in confusion.
Xiao Yalin laughed for a while before she stopped laughing, "Brother, how much did you buy this wild ginseng?"
"A few thousand dollars, almost ten thousand," Jiang Bian said. He tried to make it more expensive, hoping to make Xiao Yalin think it was true.
Xiao Yalin tapped Jiangbian's forehead with her hand, "Fool, you were deceived by others. If this is really wild ginseng, how could it still be alive? Could it be that it was grown in Qiantang City? Look, the leaves are not even there yet. If he died, he might have just pulled it out of the plate."
Jiang Bian thought to himself, "This woman who just pulled it out really has a delicate heart."
"Moreover, is this wild ginseng too fat? How heavy is it? The environment in the wild is so complicated. How can wild ginseng grow so fat? Besides, look at the skin, it's tender and tender, like a radish. You must buy it. I lost the ginseng planted by others." Xiao Yalin said.
Jiangbian scratched his head. Except for the factor of space, Xiao Yalin said that every item was correct.
"Will this garden ginseng also have some effect?" Jiangbian asked weakly. Although he knew that this thing was definitely effective and might be more effective than ordinary wild ginseng, he couldn't tell it.
"The effect will be a little bit, but it is more than a little worse than wild ginseng." Xiao Yalin said.
"It's okay. I'll wash it, cut it into a few slices, and put some in a cup of rose. See if it has any effect?" Jiang Bian said as he walked into the room.
After a while, Jiangbian brought out a pot of tea, found two cups, and poured two cups, "Sister, would you like to drink a cup and see if it has any effect?"
"Well, aren't you trying to see if this thing is poisonous? You brat, you actually asked your sister to test the poison," Xiao Yalin said angrily.
"Xiao Yalin acted like a daughter, which made Jiangbian stunned. She recognized this sister, she was really good-looking. If you can dress up properly, you will definitely be much more beautiful than those movie stars.
"What are you looking at?" Xiao Yalin asked softly, with the utmost gentleness, but two red clouds floated on her pretty face.
"No, what didn't you see? My sister is so beautiful?" When Jiang Bian was nervous, his Mandarin changed to Banshan dialect.
Xiao Yalin pursed her lips and smiled, put the cup to her mouth, took a sip, and her eyes immediately opened wide, "Brother, where did you buy this wild ginseng?"
"Didn't you say that I bought it in the medicinal material market and it was fake?" Jiang Bian said.
"Hey, it's really interesting. Who sold this wild ginseng as garden ginseng?" Xiao Yalin said.
¡°Do you think this is real wild ginseng?¡± Jiang Bian asked.
"It should be real, the fake ones don't have such a pure ginseng flavor," Xiao Yalin said.
"Then giving it to Rose should be useful?" Jiang Bian asked.
"Yes, it should work. Yueji just took medicine and fell asleep. Wait for her to wake up and give her some ginseng tea to drink. The longer the ginseng tea is soaked, the better the effect will be. You are really lucky. This is not an ordinary wild ginseng. It must be old. Just now I really wanted to see that there are already several leaves on it. It must be quite old. You have such great luck. It can be considered a blessing for the rose." Xiao Yalin said.
"Jiangbian didn't expect that getting a ginseng root by himself could stir up such high waves. Why are the people in the city so rare and strange?" At that time, people were not so surprised when Liu Huijun got involved.
After waiting for a while, Li Yueji woke up, but her expression was still pale, but her eyes were a little more energetic. It seemed that the Chinese medicine had played a certain role.
"Rose, just in time, I made a cup of ginseng tea for you by the river here. Drink it soon. It will be very helpful for your recovery. Speaking of which, you are really lucky. My brother made a special trip to buy ginseng for you. I thought he must be I bought cloth, but I didn't expect this guy to pick up a big ginseng and bring it back. He bought an old wild ginseng for a cabbage price," Xiao Yalin said.
"Is ginseng expensive? I don't dare to use such expensive things," Li Yueji said.
"Aren't you an outsider? The wild ginseng has been cut into slices by Jiangbian. Besides, Jiangbian originally bought it for you. Are you still reluctant to give it to you?" Xiao Yalin said.
Jiang Bian smiled and said, "What a girl you are. No matter how valuable things are, no one is important. If I need anything, you are willing to give it to me."
Li Yueji nodded and thought, "I am willing to give up my life." She took the ginseng tea from Jiang Bian and drank it slowly.
As soon as I took the ginseng tea into my mouth, I felt a heat flow in my body, and the unpleasant feeling in my body disappeared without a trace. This ginseng tea had an effect so quickly. After a while, Li Yueji's originally pale face suddenly gained color.
"I didn't expect this ginseng tea to be so effective. I feel much better now," Li Yueji said in surprise not long after putting down the tea cup.
"Well, this ginseng tea is indeed magical. It may have a lot to do with the fact that the wild ginseng is still alive." Xiao Yalin said.
In fact, this pot of tea had been prepared by Jiangbian a long time ago. He took out the pot that had been brewed last night and used water from the space. The brewing time had already been very long. Jiangbian only warmed the tea a little. A little bit. This effect is naturally good.
"Since the effect is good, you can drink some ginseng tea every day for the past few days to recuperate your body as soon as possible." Jiang Bian said.
"Yeah" Li Yueji responded.
In the evening, Li Yueji's mental state improved significantly. She felt sleepy very early and went to bed early alone.
Xiao Yalin was actually also frightened that day. Although not as serious as Li Yueji, her mental state was not as good as before. After drinking ginseng tea with Xiao Yalin several times, her condition completely recovered. There is a bit more charm on the beautiful face.
Jiangbian waited for Xiao Yalin and Li Yueji to go to bed, then entered his room, hurriedly closed the door and got into the space.
When entering Jiangbian, I was still amazed by the transformation of the space. From a modest size in the beginning, it has grown to such a large scale. Jiangbian wonders if there will be a limit in the future. If every time you improve your cultivation level, you can have such a big change, will the space in the future be as boundless as the outside?
Jiangbian didn¡¯t bother to think about such a complicated issue. He walked into the space and picked up a few bags of seeds that were randomly thrown on the ground. With a thought, the seeds in the bags automatically flew to the sky above the hill and fell down to the hill like rain, making a gurgling sound everywhere. The sound of licking.
After the ginseng seeds fell to the ground, they plunged into the soil like elves. The saffron bulbs automatically fell to the flat land on the other side of the Xiaolu River, and the soil covered them.
Wow, the space really rained in the space, wet all the soil, and left only a place at the end of the river, and remained dry.
In the end, the three seeds of fungi, worms, and grasses that grow Cordyceps sinensis are left. Just scatter them in a corner of the flat ground and get rid of the problem. Jiangbian will not study how to grow Cordyceps sinensis through artificial methods.
To be honest, if Jiangbian hadn't thought that planting these rare plants might be of great help to the growth of the space and might also be helpful to his own cultivation, he wouldn't have bothered to get so many things. The money he earns now is enough for him, so there is no need to spend too much time on it.
Jiangbian¡¯s ability has become stronger, but his ambition has not become lofty. His ambition is to live in a small western-style building in a mountain village, have a beautiful mother-in-law, and have a litter of smart babies.
The space becomes more harmonious and the animals don¡¯t have to be crowded into a bunch. But not all animals are happy.
As soon as General Gray saw Jiang Bian coming in, he showed a resentful expression and walked around Jiang Bian groaning.
Being stared at by General Gray on the riverside made me feel numb. This guy didn¡¯t look like a dog now, but more like a wild wolf that was rarely seen in the Heron Mountain.
I once heard King Turtle say by the river that the wolf king on Heron Mountain has a strand of golden hair on its head. This is the main difference between it and ordinary gray wolves.
??Looking carefully at the gray general by the river, isn¡¯t there a strand of golden hair in the center of his head? This guy is actually the Wolf King?
Jiangbian then remembered that General Gray had picked it up from the Lujiang River by himself. At that time, he had never heard of a female dog in Banshan Village having a pup. Could it be that it came from a heron?
