Wen Jianguo had never bought wild ginseng, but he knew that the price of wild ginseng was very expensive. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I haven't seen what that wild ginseng looks like, how can it be valued?!" Wen Jianguo said with a smile, "Actually, even if I see it, I don't know how to estimate it, I think as long as it is strong enough and has the characteristics of wild ginseng, connoisseurs will know at a glance that it will be hundreds of years, and it will definitely be able to sell at a sky-high price, not to mention selling tens of millions, it is not difficult to sell for millions." ”
"How do you dig up ginseng?" Wang Haoyu asked, "It won't be plucked like a turnip, right?" ”
"I just broke a branch, dug it briefly, and lost some roots, hehe, I have seen on the Internet, those who dig wild ginseng, see dozens of hundreds of years of wild ginseng, it takes hours, even days to dig up."
"If you don't take it out and sell it for money, you don't need to pay too much attention to the quality of the wild ginseng you take." Wen Jianguo smiled, "If it is used to sell, you have to find a few patient people to dig it, and the wild ginseng with intact roots can be sold at a sky-high price!" ”
"Now the production of wild ginseng in Changbai Mountain in China is very small, right?" Zhou Haitao asked.
"The annual yield of real wild ginseng is very small, and the annual yield of dried wild ginseng may not exceed ten kilograms." Wang Yunlong replied with a smile, "In myths, legends, and novels, wild ginseng has a particularly amazing effect, I think it's too exaggerated. Now there are a lot of understory ginseng, artificially sowing ginseng seeds in the understory land, if not fertilizing, no spraying of pesticides, the growth time is long enough, the medicinal effect of this understory ginseng and wild ginseng will not be too different. ”
"Yunlong, I agree with you." Wen Jianguo said with a smile, "Now many things that sell sky-high prices are just selling a gimmick." ”
"Dad, Russian caviar sells at sky-high prices, black truffles and white truffles sell at sky-high prices, these are all gimmicks?" Wen Liqiang asked with a smile, he didn't quite agree with his father's point of view, "As far as I know, the production of caviar, black truffle and white truffle is not small. In addition, high-quality matsutake mushrooms can be sold at sky-high prices in the country, and high-end seafood such as wild yellow croaker, bluefin tuna, napoleon wrasse, and grouper are also very expensive. ”
Wen Jianguo asked with a smile: "Can the hundred-year-old wild ginseng be compared with these ingredients you said?" ”
Wen Liqiang said: "Wild ginseng is a medicine, not a delicious ingredient, and the ingredients I said, people like their deliciousness. ”
Zhou Haitao interjected with a smile: "Cousin-in-law, do you agree with Yunlong and your father's point of view?" ”
Wen Liqiang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and asked with a smile: "Haitao, wild ginseng sells for a sky-high price, do you think this is a gimmick?" ”
Zhou Haitao nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"In recent centuries, wild ginseng that is more than 100 years old has been a rare item in China and can be sold at a high price. During the Republic of China, a hundred-year-old wild ginseng, I estimate that I can change a courtyard house with a large area in the capital, and now such a courtyard house can be sold for 50 million ......."
Wen Liqiang paused as he spoke, and said with a smile: "I think it's not a gimmick for a commodity whose value has been recognized by the public for a long time and can be sold at a high price." Yunlong, what do you think? ”
Wang Yunlong smiled and said, "You say that, it makes sense. ”。
Wen Liqiang stared at Wang Yunlong for a few moments and asked, "Have you ever eaten wild ginseng?" ”
Wang Yunlong replied: "I haven't eaten it before." ”
"I've heard that people with strong bodies who eat too much wild ginseng are prone to getting angry and their noses will bleed." Wen Liqiang smiled as he spoke, and quipped, "How did you think of getting wild ginseng to eat?" Want to make up for it? ”
Wang Yunlong smiled and said, "That's right, I want to make up for it." ”
Wen Liqiang smiled: "Your body is so strong, why do you need to make up for it?!" ”
Wang Yunlong smiled slightly and did not answer.
After a while, Zhou Haitao said: "We have picked a lot of chicken fir mushrooms, is it enough?" ”
"Enough is enough." Wang Yunlong had a thought, and the two pangolins ran out of the cave and ran to his side, and he handed the bag containing the chicken fir fungus in his hand to Wang Haoyu who was standing beside him.
"It's so cute for pangolins." Wen Liqiang glanced at them with interest, turned his head to look at Wang Yunlong, and asked, "Yunlong, can you bear to kill them?" ”
"You don't want to eat?" Wang Yunlong asked rhetorically.
"This ......" Wen Liqiang smiled, "Let's kill it, I've eaten pangolins before." ”
Zhou Haitao muttered: "I think the law in our country is quite strange, it is illegal to eat pangolin meat, and regular Chinese medicine stores sell pangolin nail tablets." ”
Wang Yunlong grabbed two pangolins and put them in a plastic bag, one for each bag, and after packing, tied the mouth, if the pangolin wanted to escape, the plastic bag would easily cut through the bag with its claws, but they didn't do it.
Wang Haoyu said with a smile: "Haitao, eating pangolin meat, just eating, eating it in a restaurant, it is generally not illegal, and selling, transporting, buying and slaughtering pangolins, ordinary people do these things, it is illegal, and some institutions and some people, after getting a permit, can legally hunt and kill pangolins." Let's just say that the killing of whales in the name of scientific research is legal in a certain sense, although many people and many institutions oppose it. ”
Zhou Haitao asked: "Most of the pangolin nails sold in pharmacies are obtained illegally, right?" ”
"That's how it should be." Wang Haoyu smiled, "There are not many people who don't know that they will be sentenced to death if they are caught, and in order to make more money, they are not drug traffickers at the risk ......of killing their heads."
"Okay, don't go far, we catch pangolins on this planet to eat, which is essentially different from trafficking // drugs." Wang Yunlong interrupted.
Wang Yunlong grabbed Wang Haoyu's arm and sent him back to Earth first, then the other three away, and finally, he also returned to Earth.
Wang Jiaqi saw that the bag in Wang Yunlong's hand contained pangolins, and said with a smile: "You really caught pangolins?" ”
"In my eyes, they're not much different from two fish." Wang Yunlong said lightly, "I put the pangolin in the kitchen first, and the chicken fir fungus is also in the kitchen." ”
"I'll get it." Zhou Haitao smiled, stretched out his hand to Wen Jianguo, Wang Haitao and Wen Liqiang took the bag containing chicken fir mushrooms in their hands.
Wang Yunlong put the pangolin in the bucket, took two basins and handed them to Zhou Haitao, and then took two knives.
"What are you doing with a knife?" Zhou Haitao asked.
"After catching the pheasant, they killed and bloodletted over there, and the pangolin and wild boar, as well as the money turtle, were all killed there, and the internal organs were removed, and the provincial kitchen smelled fishy."
"It's troublesome to kill wild boars, and it's also troublesome to kill pheasants, so you have to pluck your feathers." Zhou Haitao muttered.
"Why do you still eat fish and spit out bones when you eat fish?" Wang Yunlong joked.
"It's troublesome to kill wild boars, and it's also troublesome to pluck chicken feathers." Zhou Haitao smiled and insisted on his point of view.
"I'm going to kill the little boar like this, don't want the head, don't want the hooves, don't want the internal organs, don't want the skin, it's quite easy to deal with. As for plucking chicken feathers, I don't find it troublesome...... In the evening, don't you eat pheasant and wild boar? ”
"I'm here to help, why can't I eat it!" Zhou Haitao smiled unhesitantly, "I'm thinking about having dinner early now." ”
"The ingredients for dinner are ready, don't cook dinner right away. Later, we'll go over there and see the trees. Wang Yunlong walked out of the kitchen with two knives.
Wang Haitao followed behind Wang Yunlong and asked, "Can you easily find the Huanghuali tree that was sawn before?" ”
"It's not easy, but it's not hard. Earlier, I told you that there is a river near there, and it is easier to follow that river to find it. ”
Wang Haoyu looked at Wang Yunlong and said with a smile: "Yunlong, I thought of an interesting thing. ”
Wang Yunlong heard his cousin's laughter, guessed that nothing good would happen, and hurriedly said, "Don't say it, just steal the fun yourself." ”
"You don't want to hear it," Wang Haoyu smiled, "Then I won't talk about it." ”
"Let's go over there and collect matsutake mushrooms."
Wang Yunlong said and brought Wang Haoyu, Wen Jianguo, Wen Liqiang and Zhou Haitao to Wang Xing, and came to a pine forest with a large number of matsutake mushrooms growing around.
