Chapter 106: Unlocking the Wood Hourglass
The recruitment is not too urgent, and Lao Liu has a more urgent matter here.
Unlock the third five-element hourglass!
The Five Elements Hourglass that Lao Liu wants to unlock this time is the Wood Hourglass.
The evening was not too busy, Lao Liu asked his uncle to sit at the bar for the time being, he returned to his house, first fed the dumplings that were getting more and more beautiful, and then began to unlock the wooden hourglass.
The happiness points required to unlock the wood hourglass are almost ten times that of unlocking the earth hourglass before, if it weren't for the large number of happiness points harvested in the past half month, plus the morning rescue of the injured in the car accident, the happiness points needed to unlock the wood hourglass have been made up until now.
The happy points in the big hourglass were continuously injected into the wood hourglass, and slowly, the mini world tree began to become clear.
When the World Tree was fully displayed in front of Lao Liu, the Wood Hourglass was finally unlocked.
However, Lao Liu was not in a hurry to verify the efficacy of the wood hourglass.
Based on his previous experience with the Hourglass of Earth, Lao Liu knew that it was best for him to think of something first and then use the Hourglass of Wood to condense it.
The hourglass of wood, the things that are condensed must be related to "wood".
It could be a plant, or it could be a seed or something else, anyway, as long as it is hooked with the "wood" in the five elements, it is estimated that the hourglass of this wood can be condensed.
Of course, this "wood" refers only to the original meaning of the five elements, which is plants. The meanings that extend from the five elements, such as the geography of the five elements, the seasons of the five elements, the time of the five elements, and the internal organs of the five elements, may not be condensed by this hourglass of wood......
"What should you do? It must not be too abrupt, if you make a world master (American giant sequoia) here, it is estimated that you will have to be pulled by the relevant departments to slice it the next day. ”
"Alas, it's a pity that this is not Heishui, if you get a small tree out of Heishui, maybe you can get a bonus of 300,000 yuan!" Heishui is located on the Qiangtang Plateau, which is the only city in the world that does not grow any trees.
In order to allow Blackwater to grow a tree, Blackwater even offered a high reward - whoever can successfully plant a tree in Blackwater will be rewarded with 300,000 yuan!
"Hey, I remember seeing a report before, saying that a few years ago, several cadres from Ji Province aided Tibet successfully transplanted the old mallet seedlings (mountain ginseng seedlings) from Changbai Mountain to the plateau, and those old mallet seedlings were successfully planted at an altitude of more than 4,000 people!"
Lao Liu's consciousness withdrew from the Five Elements Jade, and he began to think back to the report he had inadvertently read.
It seems that a few cadres from Kyrgyzstan Province who came to Tibet wanted to bring a way to get rich to the local Tibetan compatriots after they came to Houzang. After thinking about it, these cadres who came to aid Tibet set their sights on their hometown's specialty, Changbai Mountain ginseng.
After careful investigation and verification, these cadres even visited the county where they worked, and finally they all believed that ginseng should be able to be grown in Houzang.
Because although the altitude of the county they work in is about 1,000 meters higher than that of Changbai Mountain, the county where they work has pine trees and birch trees, and the soil is loose and fertile, and the air is moist and cool.
The altitude is about a thousand meters higher, but the latitude is about fifteen degrees lower.
Therefore, several cadres who assisted Tibet finally decided to get a batch of ginseng seedlings to try to plant them.
Unexpectedly, this batch of ginseng seedlings with a total weight of about 500 kilograms, who came to Houzang by plane across thousands of mountains and rivers, bloomed beautiful ginseng flowers in the second year after being planted in Houzang!
"Why don't you get an old mountain ginseng? If you can, you can get another ginseng garden here?"
As soon as this idea came up, it was immediately vetoed by Lao Liu.
Although he has not yet witnessed the effect of the wood hourglass, Lao Liu has no doubt that the wood hourglass can condense an old mountain ginseng.
It's not a big problem to condense an old ginseng, it's a big deal to collect it so that others don't see it. But if you make a piece of ginseng, it will be really shocking.
And the environment that is suitable for ginseng growth is not available here.
Although it is four or five hundred meters higher than the altitude of Houzang, it is too dry and the intensity of sunlight is very high. Ginseng prefers sandy loam soils with loose texture, good aeration, good drainage, and fertile nutrients. The soil near the inn is barely suitable, but ginseng also prefers a cool and humid climate, and although it is resistant to low temperatures, it is not exposed to direct sunlight.
Only the soil and temperature around the inn were barely suitable for growing ginseng, but the dry air and strong sunlight were enough to kill the ginseng.
Therefore, the conditions for growing ginseng are not yet available, at least.
"However, there is no way to grow ginseng, we can grow plateau ginseng!"
Through the thought just now, Lao Liu thought of another plant, which is the large flower Rhodiola rosea, which is known as "plateau ginseng"!
Needless to say, the medicinal value of Rhodiola Rosea can be called "plateau ginseng", which is enough to explain the medicinal value of Rhodiola Rosea.
However, most rhodiola rosea lives in mountainous areas below 2,000 altitudes, and only Rhodiola grandi can grow above 5,000 altitudes.
And the real "plateau ginseng" is actually talking about Rhodiola grandiflora.
"It is estimated that it is no problem to plant Rhodiola grandiflora, but can you still grow Cordyceps?" Lao Liu was suddenly startled by the idea that came up with him.
Although Cordyceps is not as expensive as wild ginseng, it is definitely a very valuable Chinese herbal medicine. The most important thing is that if ginseng appears in a large area, it will definitely be suspicious, but Cordyceps will be fine.
It is no exaggeration to say that Cordyceps is all over the mountains and fields on the plateau, especially on the northern Tibetan Plateau, even in the grassland north of the inn, you can find Cordyceps casually. Tibetan compatriots all know that there is actually a lot of cordyceps in the pasture that yaks and sheep usually eat!
Every year when it is time to dig Cordyceps, many Tibetans, especially children, go up to the mountains to dig Cordyceps, but even so, the amount of Cordyceps dug up is less than 1% of all Cordyceps.
There are many Cordyceps, but not many can be found and dug up. Because Cordyceps is so small, it is difficult to find it among the wild grasses scattered all over the mountains. It's much harder than finding weeds from a wheat field......
If there is a large area of Cordyceps here, it will never arouse suspicion.
It's a pity......
Lao Liu also vetoed this idea.
Real Cordyceps sinensis cannot be cultivated artificially. Most of the so-called Cordyceps that appear on the market today are artificially planted Cordyceps militaris or Cordyceps militaris or Cordyceps militaris, which is a medicinal fungus combined with fungi.
Nowadays, many people mistakenly think that Cordyceps sinensis is Cordyceps, but in fact, there is an essential difference between the two.
The appearance of brass is similar to gold, but are the two the same? The difference between Cordyceps and real Cordyceps is almost the same as the difference between brass and gold!
Cordyceps sinensis can be cultivated artificially, while Cordyceps sinensis cannot be cultivated artificially......
