Chapter 38 Wild Ginseng

Liu's Pharmacy

Su Zhe handed the ginseng he brought to the old Chinese medicine doctor in the store and let him watch it.

Li Wenbo, an old Chinese medicine doctor from Liu's Pharmacy, opened the paper wrapped in ginseng, looked at the ginseng inside, and then asked Su Zhe, "Do you want to sell this ginseng?"

"No, I'm trying to test the year of this ginseng." Su Zhe shook his head and said, he has no intention of selling it now.

Originally, Liu's Pharmacy generally does not help people identify medicinal materials, unless you use them to sell to pharmacies. However, Li Wenbo himself was also very interested in this ginseng, so he agreed to help Su Zhe identify it.

Li Wenbo looked at the ginseng in his hand over and over again, and after Su Zhe's consent, he cut off a small root of ginseng to taste, and after a long time, Li Wenbo spoke: "Your ginseng is very similar to wild ginseng, the five forms and six bodies of these two ginsengs are very consistent with wild ginseng, your ginseng is at most 10 years old, but this weight and shape are not like 10-year-old wild ginseng." ”

This old Chinese medicine practitioner who has been practicing medicine for decades is very strange in his heart, generally wild ginseng does not grow much in 30 years, so the authentic wild ginseng that generally appears on the market will not be less than 30 years old, but Su Zhe's ginseng is extremely consistent with the symbol of wild ginseng.

Su Zhe was confused by what Li Wenbo said, and he didn't understand the five forms and six bodies that Li Wenbo said. However, he knew from Li Wenbo's words that his ginseng could be said to be 10 years old wild ginseng, and the weight was much heavier.

"And what is the price of this ginseng?" Su Zhe asked, this was the question he was most concerned about.

"If you sell it to our Liu's Pharmacy, I can call the shots and buy it at a price of 400 yuan per gram, and if it is dried ginseng, I can give you a price of 1,200 grams per gram." Li Wenbo said that he desperately hoped that Su Zhe would sell the ginseng to Liu's pharmacy. With his many years of experience in medicine and identifying medicinal materials, Li Wenbo can already be very sure that Su Zhe's ginseng is wild ginseng, and Su Zhe's ginseng is in good condition. In recent years, wild ginseng has become scarcer and more expensive.

Anyway, Su Zhe didn't want to plant these two ginseng back, so he simply sold them to Liu's Pharmacy. “

Li Wenbo cleaned all the soil on the two sticks of ginseng before weighing them, and the net weight of the last two sticks of ginseng was 48.5 grams, with a total value of 19,400 yuan.

Li Wenbo's final price shocked Su Zhe, he didn't expect the price of ginseng to be so high, he only took a month to grow 10 years of ginseng, and he only paid more than 10 points of divine power per ginseng plant.

"Mr. Li, what is the price of 50-year-old wild ginseng? Also at this price? Su Zhe asked, he suddenly thought that there were 10 specially cultivated ginseng plants at home, and according to this case, those ten ginseng plants should be 30 years old.

"No, the price of 50-year-old wild ginseng has doubled, if the quality can be the same as these two ginsengs, dry ginseng, I can give you the price of 10,000 grams of ginseng. Do you have any other ginseng? ”

"No, I'm just curious. And what do you say about the five forms and six bodies, and how do you see them? Su Zhe said that he was very interested in this ginseng identification, after all, he now grows a lot of ginseng by himself, and has learned to judge the year of ginseng first

"The five forms refer to the whiskers, reeds, skins, lines, and bodies, and the six bodies refer to the spirit, stupidity, oldness, tenderness, horizontal, and shun." Li Wenbo said, and also took out the ginseng in the store to compare with Su Zhe: "Like the ginseng in my hand, the one that is white and tender and crisp is not pure wild ginseng, but artificially grown." There are also pure ginseng with old skin, yellow-brown color, tight and shiny texture, and artificial ginseng with tender and white skin. The pattern of wild ginseng has fine and deep screw-like horizontal lines on the shoulders at the upper end of the hair roots. Those with rough horizontal lines, shallow and incoherent are not pure ginseng. ”

Li Wenbo was extremely enthusiastic about solving Su Zhe's doubts and explaining the difference between wild ginseng and ginseng one by one.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, but the knowledge of this ginseng is too deep, I still need to digest it, and I will leave first if I still have something to do." Su Zhe didn't expect that ginseng was so complicated, he just knew that ginseng was a medicinal herb and the price was not cheap.

"Okay, Brother Su, if there is still ginseng, I hope you can consider Liu's Pharmacy first. I promise to give you a satisfactory price," Li Wenbo said with a smile.

Su Zhe agreed and left Liu's pharmacy.

On the way home, he also went to the bank, transferred 200,000 yuan to An Xin's account, and bought some more delicate empty glass bottles.

At home, An Xin is cleaning, and the baby is watching cartoons.

Su Zhe said hello, took all the glass bottles to the bathroom, disinfected the glass bottles with disinfectant water, then rinsed them with water, and finally soaked the glass bottles in hot water.

He found the business card he had given him from a nearby water delivery company and called them to order a few bottles of distilled water.

After hanging up the phone, he found An Xin standing in front of him.

"Did you transfer the 200,000?" An Xin took out her mobile phone and showed the information on it to Su Zhe. She suddenly received this message just now, and she was startled, but she saw that the account transferred to her was Su Zhe's, so she came over.

Su Zhe glanced at it, nodded and did not speak.

"Why give me so much money, I don't need your sympathy, I can earn it myself." An Xin's eyes were red, her life experience made her character extremely stubborn, no matter how hard it was, she was unwilling to accept help from others, and she had to get every penny with her own hands.

"You need this money now, you know that your sister's illness can't be delayed, An Xin, when everyone is in difficulty, they can't fight everything by themselves." Su Zhe said softly, An Xin's character will make you like it, but it will also make you feel distressed.

"Moreover, this money is only temporarily lent to you by me, and I have to pay it back." Su Zhe continued, not giving An Xin a chance to refuse.

An Xin knew that Su Zhe said this on purpose, in order to let her accept the money: "However, I may not be able to pay it back for the rest of my life?" ”

"That's the best, so that I can tie you to me for the rest of my life, and let you cook and do laundry for me for the rest of your life." Su Zhe saw that An Xin would no longer refuse, and hurriedly said.

When An Xin heard this, her face turned red, and she ran away: "I'll go cook first, and I'll be fine soon." ”

After An Xin ran away, he reacted, how did what he said just now seem to be confessing and proposing, he looked at An Xin's figure with a wry smile, but the final result was good, at least An Xin accepted his money.

Soon, the water company delivered the distilled water he needed.

Distilled water is naturally not bought and drunk by Su Zhe, this water that has been distilled many times no longer has a source of 5% of the trace elements needed by the human body, so drinking distilled water regularly is not good for the body.
