Xu Shiyan and his wife arranged two tables in the Shenshi Hotel and invited the helpers to eat.

Xu Haiqing and Xu Jinhui ran home and invited their grandparents over.

The two children supported their grandparents and walked away, and Xu Haiqing's mouth was not idle.

Tell your grandparents about the ginseng today, and how big the ginseng is.

The old couple were a little dumbfounded when they heard it, they have been dealing with mallets all their lives, and they have never heard of a mallet that grows several pounds.

Is that still called a mallet? That's a mallet spirit, right?

Waiting for dinner, Xu Chenghou inquired with his son.

"San'er, I heard Haiqing say, our family's mallet this year is not small?"

"Well, it's not small, the largest can be more than four pounds.

Dad, you haven't seen that mallet like it, it's a rare old man. Xu Shiyan nodded and said with a smile.

This year, this mallet can be said to be too much harvest, fifty zhang ginseng ground, and the mallet is hardly less than a pound of weight.

"The ginseng land in the Liumao River is really good, the long mallet, and the careful service that Yingzi led to serve, I estimate that it can be sold at a good price this year."

A pound of hammers, according to the current market, when it comes to the market, it has to be sold for at least 2,000 yuan a tree.

Besides, there are big ones in it, and the proportion is not small, and it is conservatively estimated that these fifty zhang ginseng land can be sold for a small one million.

Of course, this is also quite costly.

At the beginning, the big planting in the ground was almost one or two sinking, and the cost of planting twelve or thirteen catties in one zhang was more than three hundred.

In the past five years, I have taken care of it carefully, and the first two years are the mallets that I have to look at alone, and the cost of just looking at the participation fee for a year will be 20,000 yuan.

This is still the ginseng land of the Liumao River, there are few miscellaneous bacteria, the soil fertility is sufficient, and the mallet can last in the ground for five years and grow so big.

If you change it to ordinary ginseng soil, let alone grow so big, I don't know how many will rot and how many will be left.

Therefore, this is purely a bet on luck, Xu Shiyan is lucky, the bet is right.

If you lose the bet, it is estimated that you will lose all your money and have nothing.

The routine operation of planting ginseng is still the three-three system, even if you really want to cultivate large goods, it is best to be nine-year-old like three-three-three.

"Fifty feet old is so good? Then if you are all pointing to the market to sell, what year and month do you have to sell it? ”

Xu Chenghou took two puffs of cigarette and suddenly felt a little worried.

Ordinary people can't afford such a big mallet, so they have to be bought by the big boss or something, or eaten, or keep it for soaking wine.

There are also people who make a big glass bottle and soak it in a big mallet, and put it there to look great and magnificent.

But how many such buyers are there?

If you get a squatting ginseng market with ten or eight trees and sell it slowly, you can always sell it.

But these fifty zhang are almost all big goods, so how much can they afford? Where did so many big bosses come from in the market?

"Well, I've consulted with Eiko.

Tomorrow, she will call those customers in the south and tell them that there is going to be an auction in the 20th of Donggang Shenshi.

Shengkai and they will also hurry up to contact the participating farmers in all parts of our county tomorrow, and when the time comes, they will be in the ginseng market and hold an event or something, I estimate that they can sell more than half of it.

The rest is packed in moss and foam boxes and shipped directly to the capital, Shanghai, and Yangcheng.

Don't we all have a store over there? If you put this thing in the freezer and refrigerate, it can be stored for a while, and it should be able to be sold. ”

Xu Shiyan thought about how to operate it on the mountain, so that he would not hold these mallets in his hands.

This is Xu Shiyan's family, and there are many channels to sell goods.

If you change it to someone else, to put it mildly, don't look at the mallet that grows well and has a good harvest, if it doesn't make trouble, it really can't be sold.

The 180 ginseng plants in the market are slowly sold okay, but there are too many, and it is really difficult to sell.

Xu Chenghou listened to his son's words and nodded, "Well, you two just have a plan in mind." But don't smash your hands and can't sell it. ”

The old man is worried about this, what if you say it can't be sold? Isn't that money for nothing?

"Dad, no, it's really not good, we can also scrub the wine to make fresh ginseng."

That thing is not afraid of Chen when it is soaked in wine, and it stays in the mountain village and sells it slowly. ”

Xu Shiyan laughed when he heard it. I really didn't have to worry about dealing with this little thing.

The two of them chatted for a while, and Xu Shiyan and they were tired enough to go up the mountain, so they took the child home to rest.

On Monday the next day, Xu Haiqing and Xu Jinhui went back to school to attend classes, while Su Anying seized the time to contact the merchants.

Everyone she could reach called to let them know.

On September 23rd, an auction will be held in Donggang ginseng market, and there will be a catty and two catties of garden ginseng auction.

Not to mention, many people are quite interested in this and agree to come and take a look.

At this time, it was already September 12th, and it was very close to the scheduled time, so there were many things to prepare.

Thanks to the proper manpower here, everyone started to prepare together, arranging people to publicize it to the outside world, and setting up a stage to prepare the venue.

Su Anying still has to take people to select all the ginseng and weigh them one by one.

Tie each ginseng with red silk, hang a slip underneath, and write the weight.

Order another batch of white foam boxes, carefully pack each ginseng with moss and moist soil, and store it in cold storage.

All the mallets have been sorted and weighed and packaged, and there are two of the largest, both of which are more than four pounds heavy, worthy of the name of the king of ginseng.

Under the guidance of Xu Shiyan, Su Anying picked the heavy one, and picked a lot of heavy ones about a catty, and led people to drive to the province with ginseng.

The largest one was given directly to the province, not to any leader, but to the province.

In 82, the second brigade got up with a ginseng tree weighing half a catty.

Yu Shouguang sent it to the town, and the town sent it to the county, and finally to the province.

At that time, I felt that the ginseng that was half a pound heavy was very rare, and it could be called the king of ginseng.

At the ginseng festival in 88, Su Anying took out a ginseng tree of six halves and was named the king of garden ginseng.

How long has it been? Six years later, there was a four-pound ginseng.

I have to say that this is definitely a milestone in the history of ginseng cultivation in Ji Province, and it is estimated that in the short term, no one will be able to break through.

As soon as King Sam was sent to the province, it was really a sensation in the entire provincial capital, and various news media interviewed and reported one after another.

Fusong ginseng farmers reaped a bumper harvest, and a new ginseng king appeared, weighing 2,106 grams.

The huge headline was printed on the front page of the provincial newspaper.

The provincial TV station also broadcast the news on the news that night, and gave the ginseng a big close-up.

Immediately afterwards, the provincial leaders hurriedly reported to the capital, and then the ginseng was sent to the capital.

Eventually, after processing, the ginseng was sent to the Jilin Hall of the City Hall for storage and display.

This time, Su Anying also won the title of "Ginseng King", not only with a certificate, but also with a golden plaque.

The news of the appearance of a four-pound Shen Shenwang tree in Ji Province soon spread, and the public was very interested in it.

Immediately afterwards, news came that on September 23, there would be a ginseng king auction in the Donggang ginseng market.

At that moment, many people were excited, and hurriedly booked tickets to prepare to go to Fusong, Ji Province, to participate in this auction.

On September 23rd, the autumn was crisp and the wind was light.

Colorful flags are flying, gongs and drums are noisy on the side of the Donggang ginseng market, and banners are pulled on the gate of the ginseng market, and red silk and balloons are tied on both sides.

Su Anying invited people from Donggang Primary School, Shenchang Primary School, Shenchang Art Troupe, Forestry Bureau Art Troupe, and Fusong Mountain Red Opera Troupe to come to a grand singing and dancing performance.

After the performance, the Samwang auction officially began.

Mid-to-late September is the day when ginseng is used to make goods.

After the previous campaign, the farmers all know that there is an auction on the 23rd.

Many people picked out the big ginseng they had grown out of their homes and came to participate in the selection and auction.

Even if you can't be rated as a ginseng king, the price of ginseng is also very high in this kind of activity, and it is much more cost-effective than usual.

At the same time, there are also those mountain herders who run the mountain all year round, bringing the ginseng they dug up.

In recent years, the domestic ginseng resources have gradually decreased, and it is difficult to see large goods.

However, in the past two years, some people have applied for relevant documents and went directly north to neighboring Russia and dig ginseng in the Far East.

According to legend, when the Soviet Union was first founded, Lao Maozi used an airplane to sow a large number of ginseng seeds in the Far East.

No one knows whether this is true or not, but the Far East has a harsh environment and a vast and sparsely populated area, and Lao Maozi doesn't know how to dig ginseng in the mountains.

It's true that there are very abundant mountain ginseng resources over there.

Therefore, many people went through the relevant procedures and ventured into the Far East to find treasures in the mountains.

There were many people in Donggang who went over together, and there were still people looking for Huang Shengkai at that time.

However, Huang Shengkai helps Su Anying do things, and he earns a lot of money a year, and no one wants to run out and risk his life to earn that money.

There are really a lot of good goods at this auction.

One of the seedlings weighs more than 300 grams, and the shape is very beautiful, which can be called the best.

Before the auction, there was a display where all the participating ginseng was placed on the stage and casually watched.

Each exhibit has a number, and the merchant looks at that one and writes it down himself.

When the auction starts, each bid, and the highest bidder wins.

Su Anying brought the four-catty ginseng, and a few three-catty and two-catty ones.

The event was organized by her, but she couldn't bring everything she had at home, so how could others sell goods?

So Su Anying only brought these, and the others would trade privately with those merchants and not occupy the auction quota.

In the end, the four-pound ginseng was auctioned off by a Hong Kong businessman for 52,000 yuan, and the rest were sold for a very high price.

And the ginseng over there was finally sold for 1.3 million, which is also the highest price of mountain ginseng in China.

The two-day auction sold more than 10 million yuan.

The main reason is that the mountain ginseng market is good and the price is high, which plays a crucial role in the turnover of this auction.

The success of the auction has benefited Donggang City, Donggang Town, and even the county.

Although Xu Shiyan's family has a lot of ginseng, there are many merchants who can't stand it this time.

Many people didn't buy anything at the auction, and privately contacted Su Anying and Xu Shiyan to see the goods and negotiate the price.

Some Hong Kong businessmen bought 100 trees at once, and the price was not low.

Originally, Xu Shiyan also said that the rest would be shipped to the capital or Yangcheng, but in the end, there was nothing left.

Thanks to Su Anying, she set aside some in advance, and the person who should have given it away had already been sent away.

Over the years, the relationship network between Xu Shiyan and his wife has been quite large, and they have to move around when they have human contacts.

It is extremely rare to have more than a pound of ginseng, which is used to give gifts and take away favors, it is definitely a treasure, and anyone likes it when they see it.

After deducting the one given to the province, as well as the part that was given as a gift and left favors, as well as the elders left by the family to Xu Chenghou, Su Weizhong, Chu Xuanhuai, and Han Wenzhong, the remaining ginseng was sold for nearly one million in total.

The special product tax of ginseng is collected according to the number of zhang at the time of ginseng, and the amount of money per zhang is stipulated.

Participants in the auction also paid a 10% handling fee in accordance with the rules.

So there's no problem in the middle, and others can't find it even if they want to find fault.

These 50 zhang ginseng was sold, and there were still 100 zhang of ordinary six-year-old ginseng in the ground.

You don't have to think about it, you can hire someone to go up the mountain and come back, send it to the processing plant for processing, and then ship it in grades and sell it.

Su Anying discussed with Xu Shiyan that from this year onwards, the family will no longer plant ginseng.

I really don't have the time to take care of it, even if I hire someone to do the whole work, someone has to go over and take care of it a few times, right?

Ji Shengyuan's development is getting better and better, how can Su Anying still have time to take care of the land?

Xu Shi'an's side is the same, the farm is getting busier and busier, his family doesn't plant ginseng anymore, and he doesn't have time to help Xu Shiyan take care of it.

In fact, not only Xu Shiyan's family, but even Huang Shengli, Zhao Jianshe and others have also decided that they will not plant ginseng at home in the future.

It's not that they can't afford to make that little money, the key is that they are busy with Su Anying's Ji Shengyuan company, and they really can't take care of it.

However, Huang Shengkai, Zhao Jianguo, Feng Yue and others, they did not enter Ji Shengyuan Company, but were only responsible for the periphery.

Every year, I help to buy all kinds of medicinal herbs, pour mountain wild vegetables, and earn a lot of money a year.

Plant a little more mallet to guarantee the bottom, and life will be prosperous.

This year, there will be no ginseng, so after this batch of goods is properly processed, Su Anying hurriedly set off for the capital and other places.

Although there are reliable people in the Jishengyuan branch to manage it, Su Anying can't let go of it and don't care about anything, she still has to go to the headquarters to sit down.

In ninety-four years, Jishengyuan Health Products Company has annual sales of more than 500 million.

It has developed dozens of kinds of products, in addition to the main products, other products sales are also very considerable.

Jishengyuan has branches in Shenzhen, the capital and Shanghai, and has more than 2,000 sales stores in various cities across the country, as well as cooperative sales points in rural areas.

It can be said that the sales channels of Jishengyuan have been fully rolled out, and in terms of volume and sales, Jishengyuan has been the leader of domestic health care products.

In the blink of an eye, ninety-four years have passed, and ninety-five years have come.

On April 6, 95, a national naming meeting for the hometown of specialty products was held in the capital.

Fusong was officially named "Ginseng Township" by the Organizing Committee of the Township of Specialties, ranking first among the 100 Famous Townships of Specialties.

When the news came, the whole county rejoiced and held colorful celebrations.

At the same time, the county held a propaganda and ideological work conference and the "Best Citizen" commendation conference, and Su Anying's name was prominently listed.

At the beginning of the second semester of the third year of high school, all the students entered a state of mental tension.

All kinds of exams, all kinds of rankings, followed by physical examinations and volunteers.

This year, fill in the college entrance examination or apply for the volunteer first and then take the exam.

Students can only estimate their approximate score according to their daily grades and college entrance examination review status, and then fill in the volunteers.

There are certain drawbacks to this way of volunteering.

Some children usually do well in exams, and they report as usual, but the test performance is abnormal.

Such a child is easy to report high.

There are also children who usually have average grades, but if they have divine help on the day of the exam, they will perform extraordinarily.

As soon as the results came out, they were a few tens higher than usual.

Such a child is easy to report low.

Compared with the students who are entangled in grades and aspirations all day long, Xu Haiyuan is much easier.

He has already received an admission letter from the medical university, and he is just waiting for the fall semester to report to class, and he has no burden.

So every day, he goes to school as usual, and he doesn't have to worry about applying for volunteers, test results, etc.

In a blink of an eye, in July, the weather is getting hotter and hotter, and the college entrance examination is coming.

It stands to reason that a person like Xu Haiyuan who has taken a guaranteed place can not take the college entrance examination.

But Xu Haiyuan was idle and bored, so he told the school that he wanted to take the college entrance examination to feel it.

The school did not object, and registered Xu Haiyuan and recorded the admission ticket in accordance with the normal procedures.

Nowadays, it is not popular for children to take the college entrance examination with their parents.

Besides, Xu Haiyuan has already been escorted, and Xu Shiyan and his family are busy, so they don't plan to come to the provincial capital to accompany them.

On July 7, 8, and 9, Xu Haiyuan and his classmates worked hard with the exam papers in the stuffy examination room.

At the end of the college entrance examination, both children and parents breathed a sigh of relief.

The next thing is to wait for the results of the college entrance examination, and then wait for the admission notice.

"Dad, the college entrance examination results are out, and my brother's results are very good.

The total score was 71, and my brother took 692. ”

On this day, a big list was posted on the school's publicity gallery, on which were the students' college entrance examination results.

Xu Jinping happened to see it, and hurriedly called back to report the good news to her family.

The total score of science was 710, and Xu Haiyuan took the 692 exam, ranking first in science.

This score is really enough for the test of Qingbei.

When the results came out, many people shook their heads when they saw it, but they couldn't understand why such an outstanding child had to study medicine?

"Well, it's good, your brother followed your mother to the capital, waiting for me to call and tell him.

Girl, how are you at school? Tired of schoolwork?

If you're too tired, let's stop participating in any competitions, okay?

You just go to school obediently, and just like any other girl, you can play for a while when you need to, and go shopping if you want to.

When the time comes, let's take the college entrance examination, and we will score as many points as we can. ”

Xu Shiyan actually didn't care much about his son's college entrance examination results.

No matter how much I take the exam, it's useless, anyway, my son has been admitted to the medical university, so he can go to class in the fall.

It's a girl, who hasn't been home for a long time since she went back to school after the New Year, and she panicked.

Thinking that in order to prepare for the competition, her daughter kicked out all the three years of high school courses in her first year of high school, and every day in addition to attending classes, she did papers and brushed questions, Xu Shiyan's heart felt painful.

Whose daughter doesn't have a pain in her heart, but his daughter has to fight desperately with those books.

"Dad, what do you say? I didn't come to the provincial capital to study. ”

Xu Jinping on the other end of the phone was speechless for a while, what is there to visit on that street? Going shopping on a hot day, she has a problem with her brain, right?

With that time, she might as well brush up on a few sets of questions.

"Dad, I don't feel tired, really, I like math, I like to do problems, you don't have to worry about me."

"Okay, then you usually remember to eat well, pay attention to the combination of work and rest, you can't do questions all day long, beware of bad health."

Xu Shiyan had no choice but to nag and nag his daughter, and told her to pay more attention.

"Oh, oh, got it, Daddy. That, I hung up the phone, and my aunt called me to eat. ”

Xu Jinping couldn't stand her father's nagging, so she quickly hung up the phone and went upstairs to eat.

Xu Shiyan, after hanging up the phone, sat on the chair and looked out the window and lost his mind.

The weather is not very good today, it has been a little cloudy since the morning, and it is very cloudy at the moment.

The dark clouds pressed very low, and it felt like it was going to rain at any moment.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed across the sky.

Then there was a rumbling thunder, loud.

The first lightning bolt seemed to turn on a switch, followed by a burst of lightning and thunder, accompanied by a torrential downpour.

Xu Shiyan's heart suddenly jumped, and he quickly grabbed the phone, "Qingguo, is the county ready for flood control?" ”

"Third uncle, what are you talking about? Flood control? Probably not at this time, right? On the other end of the phone, Zhou Qingguo looked confused.

Generally speaking, it is the rainy season in late June, and the more the high school entrance examination, the heavier the rain becomes.

There has been no rain in July this year, and the ground is dry, and today's rain is just the right time, why do you still think about flood control?

"Don't ask why, let's arrange it quickly."

When the lightning lit up just now, Xu Shiyan suddenly remembered that at the end of July and the beginning of August in the ninety-fifth year of his previous life, the Songhua River was flooded.

The water of the Xijiang River overflowed the embankment, and all the low-lying places in the county town were flooded.

At that time, Xu Shixiang lived in the county, and I heard him later say that the situation at that time was particularly hanging, and things were floating all over the street.

Some people's refrigerators and washing machines have been washed away by the flood.

Zhou Qingguo suddenly remembered that when Xu Shiyan first moved to Donggang, he could always give early warnings so that the Second Brigade and the Commune could avoid losses.

"Got it, third uncle, I'll let people arrange it."

Zhou Qingguo's heart sank, life has been good in the past few years, but he has forgotten about this matter.

Others don't believe it, but his third uncle's words must be believed.

So, Zhou Qingguo hung up the phone and immediately organized a meeting.

"Secretary Zhou, this can't be, right?

Although the weather forecast said that there was heavy rain, it had not rained for a long time, and you can see that the water level of the Xijiang River has dropped a lot.

Even if this rain is a little heavier, it shouldn't be watery. ”

"Don't care if you have it, it's time to prepare first, what if something happens?"

Zhou Qingguo firmly believes that Xu Shiyan's reminder must have a basis, so he insists that people prepare in advance and be prepared.

Zhou Qingguo's style of acting is very similar to Guan Enxue, which belongs to the kind of vigorous and resolute action, and his methods are very tough.

Don't look at his young age, but these people in the county really don't dare to underestimate him.

Since Zhou Qingguo insisted so much, others could not object, so they could only do what Zhou Qingguo wanted.

Immediately notify the villages along the Songhua River, pay attention to the rainfall at any time, remain vigilant, and always be ready to move to higher places.

On the other hand, all parts of the county along the river are also monitored at any time, and flood control materials are prepared, so that they can be rescued at any time in case of problems.
