Of course, the identification of wild ginseng does not rely entirely on the leaves. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Because the leaves of wild ginseng are reincarnated, growing from the leaves of Yipin. Grow from one to six, and then back to the first fret, and start again.

Therefore, it is difficult and inaccurate to rely on simple leaves to identify their age. It will not appear when selling wild ginseng, looking at a few leaves to set the price.

However, there is another situation that is very special, that is, the ginseng growth environment is excellent, so the leaves will not wither, but will continue to grow.

From the first product to the sixth product, then to the seventh product, the eighth product, and even the ninth product.

Generally speaking, the wild ginseng on the market is very good to have four leaves, five is considered a high-quality product, and the sixth is a rare treasure. At present, the largest ginseng king found in China is only seven leaves, which is already a peerless treasure.

As for the seventh grade upward, the eighth grade to the ninth grade, this level of wild ginseng only exists in legends, and no one has seen it at all.

"Let's not dig for now, there should be better ones in this valley. Liu Mang thought about it, but decided to look for it first and walk through this valley.

The trees in the valley are tall and shade most of the sunlight overhead, so the light in the forest is somewhat dim.

Liu Mang walked in the forest, and from time to time some birds with gray backgrounds and red feathers flew over his head, making a call of 'Brother Wang Gang, Ligu'.

"It's no wonder that this valley is rich in ginseng, and there are so many ginseng birds. ”

The ginseng bird, also known as the mallet bird, feeds on the ginseng seeds, and whenever the ginseng seeds are red, they call each other to find food.

It is a guide in the harvesting of ginseng, and wherever there is ginseng, there must be this bird.

There is a folk song in the Changbai Mountain area in Northeast China: If you want to dig ginseng treasure, you have to find a mallet bird!

"Wupinye!" After walking in the forest for a while, Liu Mang found another one. Counting carefully, this ginseng plant has five small leaves on it, like a child's slap.

"Yes, the price of this ginseng plant on the market is about hundreds of thousands, and if it is in good condition, it is not uncommon to have millions. Liu Mang squatted down and took out a red rope from the space and tied it to the root of the ginseng.

Ginseng picking is very particular, and the tools and doorways used in it are difficult to figure out if you are not a professional ginseng picker.

For example, after entering the forest area, you should pay great attention to your words and deeds, each person holds a wooden stick to call a suo bao stick, usually a talisman cane, and at critical times, use a wooden stick to beat the tree, and use the loud sound made by hitting the tree to determine the distance between companions.

When encountering a snake, you can't call it a snake, you have to call it a money string, and you are not allowed to hurt it casually. Each person should also prepare a set of mallet locks and mallet pins.

The mallet lock is to tie the two ancient copper coins with a red velvet thread, and after finding the ginseng, he pinched the ginseng seedling leaves with one hand, let go of his throat and shouted: "The mallet ......", "What goods......" and "Sipinye ......"

There are questions and answers, and everyone who hears them must sing and harmonize together, which is the origin of shouting mountains.

In addition, the tools used to dig ginseng are also very special, and they are usually made with homemade antler skewers to cut the soil of the ginseng roots little by little. Sometimes a large ginseng plant has to be dug up for a day and a night.

The process of digging ginseng is as tedious and delicate as that of archaeologists digging up artifacts. Because if you accidentally cut off the finely chopped roots of ginseng and destroy the quality, the value of the whole ginseng plant will be greatly reduced.

Of course, Liu Mang is alone now, and he has the help of the kitchen god space, so of course the process does not have to be so complicated. However, the necessary procedures still have to be walked through, which is a kind of respect for ancient customs and a kind of reverence for nature.

After tying the red rope to the ginseng, Liu Mang took out a few sticks of incense from the space. After lighting it, he bowed to the person on the ground, and then reached out and pinched the rhizome of the ginseng, and shouted-Collect!

Immediately, an intact ginseng plant appeared in Liu Mang's hand. All the roots are intact and undamaged.

Liu Mang thought of this method before he came, and thought of using the kitchen god space to take ginseng with the function of putting things away.

After all, he is not a professional ginseng picker, and the traditional soil planing method will definitely damage the ginseng rhizome. But after using the function of space, no matter how powerful the ginseng picker is, the old master, he can't pick such a perfect ginseng like him.

The ginseng in his hand is half the size of an adult's arm, and the roots on it are tangled and swirling, like an old man's beard. Put it in your hand and check it, and the weight should be about 400 grams.

"Yes, a lot of gains. Liu Mangmei smiled: "Xiaobao, help me transplant it into the space." ”

"Okay, master. ”

After collecting the ginseng, Liu Mang then walked forward, and the more he walked towards the center of the valley, the more often he found ginseng.

"My good man! There really is a six-grade ginseng!" After walking through a few ginseng plants below the fifth grade, Liu Mang finally found that a ginseng plant had six leaves growing on it.

Liu Mang knows very well that every time the grade of ginseng jumps by one level, the price doubles up.

The price of the five-grade plant just now is about one million, so how much should the six-grade plant be worth now? tens of millions?

Of course, Liu Mang was not short of money, and he didn't think about selling these ginseng. However, from the price, you can see the preciousness of these ginseng.

"The sixth grade has already appeared, will there really be a seventh-grade Sam King?" his heart pounded.

Take out the six-pinned ginseng, and Liu Mangzhi gently pinched it and looked at it carefully.

In addition to paying attention to the year, wild ginseng also pays attention to the beauty of the five elements. These "five shapes" refer to the reeds, swords, bodies, whiskers, and lines of ginseng.

Because wild ginseng grows naturally and comes in a variety of forms, it is rare to truly meet the standards of beauty in all five forms.

Most wild ginseng only has one or two morphological characteristics, and it is a good product to have three forms; if it can have four shapes, the market is rare, and there is no doubt that it is a fine product; and occasionally encounter a masterpiece with "five shapes and beautiful shapes", it is absolutely fortunate.

And the six-grade leaf in Liu Mang's hand is the real five elements, and it is definitely the best in ten thousand.

After putting away the current ginseng, Liu Mang continued to walk forward, but as he walked, he found that something was wrong.

"Huh, this branch on this tree was sawn off by someone?" Walking in front of a big tree, Liu Mang was taken aback when he touched the smooth fracture on it.

"But it's also normal, I'm not the first person to get the "Food Treasures", there must have been seniors in this valley before. When I thought about it, I was relieved.

Then walked a few hundred meters forward, Liu Mang suddenly felt that his eyes lit up, and a small open space appeared in front of him. The sun shone down from the sky unobstructed, shining on a small house in the clearing.

"That's?"
