Chapter 245: The Soil Problem (2nd Update)
Before Chen Hao planned to catalyze ginseng, he looked up some information about ginseng on the Internet in advance.
The price of this ordinary [garden ginseng] on the market is only a few dozen yuan a catty. But once the year breaks through 10 years, the price of ginseng begins to show an upward trend in a "J" curve.
You must know that this ordinary ginseng, no matter what kind of ginseng, as long as it is not a wilted product, can be used as a nutritional supplement for the elderly, children, pregnant women, or people who are recovering from serious illnesses.
In traditional Chinese medicine, this ginseng has the effect of replenishing qi, replenishing blood, and exaggerating to cure all kinds of diseases.
I don't know if everyone has eaten American ginseng slices?
A little greed and eating a few more slices can make you get nosebleeds.
Not to mention the wild ginseng from the Northeast!
However, this is only limited to the ginseng of the ordinary year.
Once this ginseng grows to more than 100 years, the nutritional value of it is said to be able to bring half a dead person back to life!
A hundred years of ginseng!
This thing is in Xianxia, and it is a rare commodity for cultivating immortals and refining medicine. When it is taken to the mortal world, it is said that if you take a piece of it, it can make the dying person breathe a sigh of relief!
Although in this real world, whether this century-old ginseng has such a miraculous effect, Chen Hao does not know. But for the auction price of this century-old ginseng, he still found some clues on the Internet.
For example, a few years ago at the Northeast Ginseng Conference, a fresh [wild ginseng] that was more than 100 years old was directly auctioned at a price of 1.68 million.
As for the 325-year-old [wild ginseng] with the highest transaction price in history, according to rumors, it was pushed to a sky-high price of 10 million yuan!
Looking at the price of hundreds or tens of millions, Chen Hao was naturally ready to move, wanting to catalyze the ginseng in his hand into a ginseng king for thousands of years.
"According to historical records, the ginseng with the longest life only lived for more than 400 years. ”
"If I really want to cultivate a thousand-year-old ginseng plant, then I can't transform into essence?" Chen Hao thought happily in his heart, and immediately increased the amount of chakra injected into the No. 1 ginseng that had already blossomed and borne fruit in his hand.
1 point!
2 o'clock!
3 points!
The red berries hanging from the stem, and the brightly colored ginseng petals, began to wilt and wither rapidly, and then a new round of petals and fruits grew.
After repeating this several times, the sound of "rustling" began to be heard in the black soil of the northeast where ginseng was buried underneath.
Originally, Chen Hao didn't feel strange about this voice. Because he had encountered this situation when he was growing vegetables before.
Stems and tubers that resemble ginseng, such as carrots, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, all have this sudden increase in size and the sound of rubbing against the soil.
It's just that when Chen Hao glanced down at the black soil where the ginseng was buried, he was stunned!
Because the black soil that was originally airlifted back from the Northeast turned into a gray-white slag after he injected 5 drops of [Mu Dun Chakra].
The nutrients and water in the black soil were actually pumped clean by the fast-growing ginseng!
"it!"
"And that kind of thing?"
"Isn't it the soil?"
Chen Hao muttered while hurriedly digging out the No. 1 ginseng in fright.
It's just that it's okay not to dig, but as soon as he digs, Chen Hao will be dumbfounded!
"It's huge!"
"It's so thick!"
"It's definitely a few decades old, isn't it?"
"And this branching root, this strong smell...... This is a variety of [wild ginseng]! It is definitely not comparable to those garbage [garden ginseng]!"
"[Mu Dun Chakra] can actually catalyze the artificially cultivated [Garden Ginseng] into authentic [Wild Ginseng]?"
"This is not worse than [Fishman Blood]!"
Chen Hao lifted the long string of ginseng full of roots and whiskers in his hand with a look of amazement. I saw that the ginseng seedlings, which were only about 2 years old, had grown to about 30 years under the injection of his 5 points [Mu Dun Chakra].
The reason why he was able to recognize the year of this No. 1 ginseng at a glance was that he had seen a [wild ginseng] framed on the wall in the pharmacy of Ruicheng Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital earlier.
The size of the plant in the pharmacy of the Chinese medicine hospital happened to be about the same size as the one he was carrying.
It's just that the one in the pharmacy is dry, and the one in his hand is a freshly baked fresh product [Wild Mountain Ginseng].
Comparing dried ginseng and fresh ginseng of the same vintage, the price difference between the two is as much as 4 or 5 times.
This is because ginseng is dried to remove the water from the ginseng for long-term preservation. However, this practice will cause the business essence of ginseng to lose most of it.
Only fresh ginseng like Chen Hao's hand, which has just been dug out of the soil, is the most perfect!
It's just that after seeing the ginseng in his hand that had been cultivated for about 30 years, the black soil under it was suddenly pumped into slag, and most of Chen Hao's joy in cultivating [wild ginseng] was washed away.
"I see!"
"No wonder the growth cycle of wild ginseng is so long!"
"After the nutrients in this soil are absorbed by ginseng, it must need to be replenished periodically for a certain period of time. ”
"In the natural environment, the soil contains microorganisms to produce metabolic nutrients, as well as biological feces and decaying leaves to replenish, which can bring continuous nutrient supplementation to ginseng. ”
"But the black soil that I flew in is like water without roots, which can only support the growth of this ginseng for about 30 years!" Chen Hao stared at the ash and slag soil, and recalled in his mind the biology and science knowledge he had learned in junior high school and high school.
He felt that even his own [Mu Dun Chakra] was so perverted. The cultivation and catalysis of this kind of medicinal plants is still inseparable from the coordinated effect of soil, water and sunlight.
"This No. 1 ginseng is no good, and once it is dug up, it is equivalent to dead ginseng. ”
"So the next 9 strains of ginseng are cultivated...... Is it necessary to transplant it into the mountains and forests?"
"But most of the soil in Ruicheng is highly acidic red soil, and the nutrients should not be as good as the black soil in the northeast, right?"
"What can I do?"
"Is it possible to go to the northeast?" Chen Hao had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and he began to find it difficult to choose the soil for cultivating ginseng.
As for his "own son" Chen Shuisheng, at the moment, he was lying on the edge of the huge round pool because he was bored, staring at Chen Hao with a pair of round eyes, and holding a few tender white tentacles, throwing mud balls back and forth in mid-air.
You read that right!
It's a ball of mud!
Because Chen Shuisheng had crossed into the ocean before, this stupid octopus sea monster actually learned to play with the mud on the bottom of the sea.
Because he didn't think of a good solution all of a sudden, Chen Hao's eyes were also attracted by the sound of "snapping" in his ears.
It's just that when he just saw the mud balls thrown back and forth in Chen Shuisheng's tentacles, Chen Hao's confused eyes suddenly lit up!
"There it is!"
"That's it!"
"This thing is the soil with the highest nutrient content!"
The second more ~~
