If you are a seasoned ginseng picker, you will know how to observe qi, and a genius earth treasure like ginseng will generally have a trace of purple gas above the land where it grows after reaching one serving a year.

Of course, non-seasoned ginseng pickers generally don't see this purple qi, because there is very little purple qi and it is easy to ignore it.

Therefore, in the past, those ginseng pickers would choose a head, and the head must be able to look at the ginseng purple gas, one is because it is easy to find ginseng by looking at the ginseng purple gas, and the other is because ginseng with purple gas is generally more than fifty years old, like the newborn ginseng, there will be no purple gas, but it also saves everyone the effort to dig.

You must know that although ginseng is judged by the number of stems and leaves to judge the approximate year of ginseng, the stems and leaves of ginseng are very fragile and are sometimes trampled by passing animals, and when they grow again, the leaves will start from one again.

I believe that many people have heard some rumors about ginseng, and one of them is called: people participate in the run. This means that if ginseng senses that there are people nearby, the ginseng will run away on its own, so it is necessary to tie it with a red rope, which is called a rope (ginseng), and only when it is tied will the ginseng not be able to run.

In fact, ginseng will not run at all, the reason why there is such a saying, is because the stems and leaves of ginseng are very fragile, maybe the stems and leaves of ginseng seen here today, the next time they will be stepped on by the animal, there is no trace, so, in order to mark the location of ginseng, there will be the practice of tying ropes.

Ginseng has a strong regenerative function, and after the stems and leaves are damaged, they will grow again, but they are the same leaves as new ginseng, and they start from two pieces, which is called reincarnation. Therefore, knowing how to look at ginseng purple gas is a very powerful skill for digging ginseng. Otherwise, if you don't dig up those newly-born ginseng leaves, it may be more than 100 years old, and you won't be willing to dig them up and take a look.

But if you dig it, if it's really new ginseng, it will be a waste, a few years of ginseng will not have a big effect, and if you dig up the new ginseng, there will be no old ginseng in the future.

Rely on the mountain to eat the mountain. The most important thing to pay attention to is not to dry up and fish.

Therefore, knowing how to look at ginseng purple qi is the dream of any ginseng picker, however, it is not a simple thing to learn to look at purple qi, just as any skill is tempered by thousands of tempers, and the same is true for ginseng purple qi.

This requires at least ten ginseng purple strains that are more than 100 years old, and then add the guidance of people who have come before. will grasp the mystery of this, in the past, although there were few such people, but at least one team into the mountains to collect ginseng will have one.

But now. With the excessive collection of ginseng, there are very few ginsengs that are more than 100 years old, and there is no such a good opportunity for ginseng pickers to study and ponder, except for the older generation of ginseng pickers. No one will look at purple gas anymore.

......

Returning to the topic, after seeing the purple qi of ginseng, the group walked towards the bushes under the leadership of Elder Pu. Pu Lao took out two wooden sticks from his waist, and between the two sticks was a red rope, and the red rope was tied to each side of the stick with a copper coin.

On the other side, the two siblings, Park Hye-hyun and Park Hye-so, also took out a stick each, carefully cleaned up the weeds in the bushes, and picked up the bushes, and it didn't take long to see the ginseng that Qin Yu had seen earlier in the bushes.

"Grandpa Park, it's five leaves, that's right, there's also a red string, this is the ginseng that my grandfather left a mark. Park Hye-hyun shouted excitedly when he saw the ginseng leaves with five branches.

In fact, there is no need for Park Hye-hyun to shout, everyone has already seen this ginseng, after all, the red fruits on this ginseng are so eye-catching, it is difficult not to be discovered.

"Boss Wang, I didn't lie to you, I just said that my grandfather left a century-old ginseng plant. Park Hye-hyun, who was excited, said to the middle-aged pot-bellied man.

"Well, yes, when this ginseng is dug up, a million will be yours. This Boss Wang's eyes also flashed brightly, this century-old ginseng strain, to him, is worth far more than one million.

"Wait. ”

However, just when Park Hye-hyun was excited, Park Lao frowned, he walked into this ginseng, touched the copper coin on the red rope tied to the ginseng stems and leaves, and asked Park Hye-hyun: "Did your grandfather tell you the Kaiyuan copper coin tied to ginseng, or did you guess it yourself?"

"It was my grandfather who wrote it in his notes. Park Hye-hyun took out an old notebook from his pocket, flipped through the pages, and said, "My grandfather recorded in his notebook that when he found this ginseng, he tied a Kaiyuan copper coin to a red rope and tied it between the stems and leaves of the ginseng. ”

Park Hye-hyun was excited, but he didn't notice that as his words came out, Park Lao's brows furrowed more and more, but in the end, he sighed and said, "Hey, let's go." ”

Retracting the two wooden sticks in his hand, Elder Park closed the bushes, but his actions and words made everyone except Qin Yu stunned.

"Grandpa Park, we haven't dug up the ginseng yet, what are we going to do?" Park Hye-hyun asked suspiciously.

"Take a look at this coin for yourself. Park Lao didn't speak, and moved out of the way, Park Hye-hyun walked to the place where Park Lao was standing before, squatted down and played with the ginseng leaves, picked up the copper coin and looked at it.

At this glance, Park Hye-hyun's whole person first showed disbelief, and then stood in place, looking stunned.

At the same time, Pu Lao's voice sounded again, "This copper coin is a Qianlong copper coin, and since your grandfather wrote a Kaiyuan copper coin, it means that this ginseng was not marked by your grandfather, but someone else." ”

According to the rules of ginseng pickers, ginseng that has been found cannot be picked, but the owner of the mark can be found, so that when the ginseng is dug up, if it is sold, you can get a share of the money.

The reason why Park Hye-hyun is stunned is because he knows this rule, which means that they can't pick this ginseng.

"What kind of rule, if you want to say this, I went to the Changbai Mountains for a walk, and when I saw the ginseng, I marked all the ginseng, does it mean that all the ginseng in the Changbai Mountain is mine. Boss Wang said with some annoyance.

"If you have the ability, you can. Old Pu's words swallowed Boss Wang at once.

As mentioned earlier, the stems and leaves of ginseng are very fragile and can be easily trampled by passing animals, so many ginseng usually cannot be found at all, and sometimes they need to be encountered by chance or coincidence.

Moreover, there is another very important reason, such a genius treasure like ginseng, the most loved by snakes, many ginseng will be guarded by snakes nearby, once the ginseng is ripe, the fruit will be swallowed, and there are no stems and leaves, so it is even more difficult to find.

"Park Hye-hyun, dig up this ginseng, and a million will still be yours. Boss Wang saw that he couldn't make sense with Park Lao, so he turned to Park Hye-hyun and said.

And after Park Hye-hyun listened to Park Lao's words, his face showed a look of interest, one million, he is now in a hurry to lack money, and after thinking about it, he also thinks that what Boss Wang said is right, is it because this ginseng has been marked, can't it be dug up? If some people specifically pick out those ginseng that are not old enough to mark them, and leave them for future generations to dig up, other ginseng pickers will not use it.

At this time, Park Hye-hyun didn't expect that his previous thoughts were just the opposite of now, and it was precisely because of his grandfather's mark that he knew that this ginseng would not be dug up by the ginseng pickers, so he would take Boss Wang into the mountain to find ginseng.

Human nature, sometimes like this, when this rule is good for him, he will follow it, and when this rule is not good for him, he will selectively refute and ignore it.

"Grandpa Park, ...... look" Park Hye-hyun looked at Park Lao with some hesitation, with a pleading look in his eyes.

"Huixian, we can't break the rules of ginseng picking, otherwise, the future troubles will be endless, and the entire mountain will be completely dug up. ”

Park Lao's expression was very strict, and in the face of the plea of his benefactor's grandson, he didn't want to agree, but rules are rules, and there are deep reasons why this rule is set.

Because, if there is no such rule, many ginseng pickers will dig up the ginseng when they see that the year is not enough, because if they don't dig it, they may be dug by others. Even if the year is not enough, it is ginseng, which is worth more than a straw.

And if you really want to do this, it will be a ruining blow to the ginseng in the Changbai Mountains, as well as the entire ginseng industry, the old ginseng is getting fewer and fewer, and the new ginseng is constantly being dug up, and in the end, it will become the whole mountain range with no ginseng to dig up.

This is the real reason why there is such a rule in the ginseng picking industry, so that some new ginseng can be dug up, so that the ginseng can grow to a suitable year and sell at a suitable price, and secondly, it will not make the ginseng pickers desperately look for ginseng.

This involves a psychology, when a ginseng picker marks so many ginseng plants, he will subconsciously control his own behavior and no longer make too much, of course, unless he is in a hurry to lack money.

"You are ginseng pickers, you can't break the rules, but we are not, since you dare not dig, then let us come, but I tell you, if we dig with our hands, then I will only give 500,000. ”

With a wave of Boss Wang's hand, the three sturdy men walked in front of the ginseng, but Pu Lao was one step ahead of them to block the way of the three of them, his face became very ugly, and he said in a low voice: "The rules of the ginseng pickers cannot be broken, you are the ones I brought up the mountain, so you must abide by these rules." (To be continued......)
