  Chapter 46 Encountering wild ginseng again

  Ginseng can be said to be the treasure of the whole body, not to mention the root, which has extremely high medicinal value.

  The leaves can be used to make tea, make tobacco, and extract saponins, and the ginseng flowers can also be used to make tea, make medicine, and make cosmetics.

  Even steaming ginseng, the water left in the pot can be boiled and concentrated to make ginseng paste.

  This ginseng ointment is a good thing. If anyone has a sore or boil, get some ginseng ointment and apply it, and it will be fine in a few days.

   Catch up with which year there is mumps, which is often called mumps, and ginseng ointment can also be applied.

   If it is a little more extravagant, you can also use ginseng paste mixed with hot water to soak your hands and feet, which can make your skin white and tender.

   Therefore, every pot of steamed ginseng water will not be wasted. It has been reserved by everyone early and brought home to boil ginseng paste.

  Autumn is a season of harvest, a season full of joy. Every busy person has a happy and satisfied smile on his face.

  The busier they are, the happier everyone is, because that means they can have a good harvest this year.

  Dongjiangyan brigade started to participate in the production of 500 feet this year, and the 40 people can rise more than 200 feet a day, so the work was almost finished on the morning of the third day.

   "Shixiang, we don't have many feet left this afternoon, right?" Yang Chunming asked Xu Shixiang during lunch.

   "Well, there is only the first string left, which is only about thirty feet long. It won't take long in the afternoon to get up and go home."

  Xu Shixiang nodded. He was familiar with how many ginseng lands there were in the team, so he would definitely not remember them wrong.

   "Oh, let's not start working too early in the afternoon. It's too early to go back. It's hard to remember the work points."

  Yang Chunming has a lot of eyes, so he had to remind Xu Shixiang.

   It is definitely different for one day and half a day, but for those who work, there is not much difference.

   It's been a day since I left, who doesn't want to earn a few more work points?

  Xu Shixiang was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Okay, let's take a good rest at noon. It's tiring enough to play the club for three days in a row."

  Xu Shixiang is quite versatile, otherwise he wouldn't be able to become a sideline captain at a young age. In addition to being educated, he is also capable.

  It’s all work in the team, the work points are given by the government, and it’s not taken out of Xu Shixiang’s pocket, so why offend others?

   Seeing Xu Shixiang nodded happily, everyone was very happy.

   So they ate quickly, some people ran to the house to lie down and rest, some set up a table outside to play chess, or they drank tea and chatted.

   "Third brother, take advantage of the lunch break, let's go into the woods to pick up some mushrooms, or pick some mountain grapes, soft dates and so on?

  My little boy is hungry all day long, and there is nothing for him to eat at home. "Yang Chunming approached Xu Shiyan and asked in a low voice.

  Yang Chunming married early, married a daughter-in-law before his twenties, and now his children are five years old.

  Xu Shiyan immediately nodded in agreement when he heard this.

  There are a lot of jujubes and grapes in the nearby woods. Go and pick some and bring them home, and give them to Su Anying as snacks.

  There are not many fruits that can be eaten these days, unlike in the future, as long as you have money, you can buy everything.

  Su Anying is pregnant and sick, but there is really nothing for her to eat at home.

   There were still a few foreign persimmons a few days ago, and these days the foreign persimmons have been eaten up, so Su Anying can only eat radishes.

  If you can pick some mountain grapes, jujubes, etc., you can eat them for a few days, especially jujubes, which are the best vitamin supplements.

  The two reached an agreement, got up quietly, grabbed a sack and walked out.

  Zhao Jianshe, Wang Zhijun and other people who get along well on weekdays saw it, and they all came over.

  As soon as they heard that they wanted to go to the forest to pick up mushrooms, these few also came out with their shoulder bags.

  The mountains in autumn are rich in colors, red maple leaves, yellow birches, poplars, and green pine trees.

  There are many delicious foods hidden in the mountains and forests. There are pine cones, walnuts, pears, and hazelnuts on the trees, grapes, schisandra, and soft dates on the vines, and hazel mushrooms on the ground. It can be said to be a huge treasure house.

  These days, people in the village are busy with autumn harvesting and growing ginseng, and they haven’t spared time to go to the mountains.

  Furthermore, Qianchuan is far away from the village, with tall trees and dense forests, most women dare not come.

  So there is everything in the forest, and there are many of them. You don’t have to go too far into the forest to see patches of mushrooms.

  Xu Shiyan was not interested in mushrooms, and when others squatted down to pick mushrooms, he continued to move forward.

  Finding a mountain grape tree covered with bunches of purple-red grapes, Xu Shiyan reached out to pick two and put them in his mouth, frowning sourly.

   This stuff, I guess his little daughter-in-law will love it, the taste of pregnant women is different from that of ordinary people, the more sour the better.

  After picking a vine, and walking forward, I met another jujube.

   Jujube is a local saying, and the scientific name should be kiwi fruit.

  It belongs to the same category as kiwi fruit, but the soft date kiwi fruit in Northeast China is small and hairless, and tastes sweeter and more fragrant.

  If it is close to the village, the jujubes will be picked up by the children before they are ripe.

  Pick the slightly raw jujubes home, put them in a wooden barrel, cover them with a handful of wormwood, and cover them for a while to soften them.

  For children, it is also a kind of fun and enjoyment to rummage through the wooden barrels for ripe soft dates every day.

  The mountains are far away from the village, and no one comes to pick them. The jujubes will hang on the trees and lose water slowly.

  Especially after the frost falls, the jujubes are sweet and soft, especially delicious.

  Xu Shiyan didn't care about those things, he grabbed a jujube tree and picked it all up, leaving none left.

   "Third brother, are you here to do the sweeping? Look at the tree you picked, I think the black blind man will cry when he meets him."

  After the first few young men saw it, they couldn't help teasing Xu Shiyan.

   "I picked it for your sister-in-law, she is sick now, and there is nothing good to eat at home."

  Xu Shiyan just smiled when he heard the words, let go of the jujube tree in front of him, and continued to move forward, looking for the next target.

  All the people picked wild fruits, mushrooms, and walnuts, and gradually walked into the depths of the forest.

  The more Xu Shiyan walked, the more familiar he felt. Looking carefully, he found that the front was the place where he brought Chen Deyong and others to release the mountain last time.

   "Not far ahead, there is a tree stump, where Chen Deyong was bitten by a snake." Xu Shiyan pointed to not far away, and told everyone.

  As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately regained their spirits, and they had to let Xu Shiyan take them over to have a look.

   Just like that, everyone walked towards the tree stump while discussing Chen Deyong's funny scene at that time.

   When they got closer, everyone saw the environment around the tree stump and couldn't help shaking their heads.

   "Chen Deyong really wanted to die, how dare he urinate on a tree stump in such a place?

  There is obviously a hole under the stump, there must be something living in it. "

  At that time, Chen Deyong was bitten by a snake, and Xu Shiyan left in anger, not paying attention to the tree stump. Now that I look at it carefully, I always feel that something is not quite right.

  A flash of light flashed in his mind, and Xu Shiyan raised his head quickly.

   "The club." Xu Shiyan shouted loudly.

   I found that some people don't understand wild ginseng and garden ginseng at all.

   The wild ginseng in the mountains without artificial cultivation is called wild ginseng. This thing is basically extinct in China. I have never heard of anyone entering the mountains and encountering big goods in these years. A few years ago, one tree was auctioned at the Ginseng Festival, and the price was 8 million. It was actually dug up from Maozi in the north.

   Artificially cultivated ginseng is called garden ginseng, which is the type that can be seen in the market, and basically grows for six years. With the current policy changes, the price of garden ginseng has also increased year by year. Last year, fresh ginseng, about ten trees per catty, could be sold for 90 to 100 yuan per catty.

Some people say that ginseng costs two yuan a tree. Hehe, the kind of ginseng that is about the thickness of chopsticks is called ginseng seeds here. It has only grown in the ground for two or three years. , I am not rare to eat, really.
