Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1107, Is this a radish?
"Oh~"

Chen Feng got up slowly and touched his buttocks. There was nothing wrong. The primeval forest here has a thick and fertile humus layer, and the soil is very fertile and thick. There is nothing wrong with falling down.

Picking up his right hand, he was about to clap his hands, but Chen Feng's eyes suddenly locked on the thing his right hand was holding.

This one looks a bit like a radish, a small radish, not as big as a radish, but also as thick as two thumbs, with many whiskers and dirt on it.

There is a branch at the top, which has several leaves, and a small seed-like fruit in red at the top.

"There are wild radishes in Quebec?"

Chen Feng looked at the thing in his hand, it looked like a radish, but it didn't look like a radish.

"The smallest radish is bigger than you, and the leaves of the radish are not right with this one, and the radish will not bloom and bear fruit."

"What the hell is this?"

Chen Feng couldn't help thinking, and then he also carried the 'radish' and walked to the resting place of the expedition team.

"Brother Chen~"

"Brother Chen, are you okay?"

At this time, several team members heard the sound of Chen Feng's fall, and hurriedly searched for him.

"It's okay, I just fell down."

"Who of you know this thing?"

When Chen Feng saw his team members, he raised the things in his hands and asked.

"Brother Chen, where did you get the carrots?"

"This radish is too small, it's not enough for my chopsticks."

Peng Chao looked at the things in Chen Feng's hands, smiled and said.

"I didn't expect there to be wild radishes here, but I can look for them again, and put them in the pot to eat. The taste is definitely good."

Chen Qi also nodded.

"I just grabbed it when I fell down."

Chen Feng smiled and pointed to the place where he just fell down. Looking around carefully, he suddenly found several plants that were the same as those in Chen Feng's hands.

Someone went over immediately, one by one, quickly pulled up several, and shook off the soil on the roots. After a careful look, it was the kind of small radish in Chen Feng's hand.

"It doesn't look like a carrot~"

"It's ginseng!"

At this time, someone picked up a plant and looked at it carefully, then thought for a while and said.

"Ginseng?"

When Chen Feng and the others heard this, they immediately looked over in unison.

"If I remember correctly, this should be ginseng."

"Ginseng is a very precious medicinal material, and generally only the really rich and big families can afford it."

"I remember when I was in Daming, I went to see a doctor when I was sick, and I saw a landlord Lao Cai go to the store to buy ginseng."

"At that time, I saw that the doctor took out a ginseng and put it in a good wooden box with a red cloth inside. It looks similar to this thing. It's like a radish, with many roots."

"However, the ginseng I saw at the time was not as big as ours. It was only less than half thick, but it was very expensive. I remember that ginseng seemed to cost five taels of silver at the time."

The man thought for a while and said.

"Five taels of silver?"

When Chen Feng and the others heard this, they couldn't help but widen their eyes slightly, and then carefully looked at the little radish in their hands.

"Is this thing worth five taels of silver?"

Chen Feng couldn't believe it.

"If it's ginseng, it must be very valuable, because ginseng is a precious Chinese medicinal material."

"At that time, the doctor said that although our Ming Dynasty has a vast land and abundant resources, ginseng is only available in Liaodong and North Korea, and there is no ginseng produced in other places."

"This is a great tonic medicinal material. Those rich landlords and officials often eat this ginseng to nourish their bodies. The price is not cheap."

The man thought about it carefully and added again.

"I wipe~"

"Well, if this thing is worth five taels of silver, wouldn't we be rich?"

Peng Chao looked at the things in his hand, thought for a while and said.

"It's too early to say~"

"First of all, we need to determine whether this is ginseng, and secondly, we need to see how much ginseng is in the area. If the amount is too small, we will not be able to make much money."

Chen Feng looked at the things in his hands, thought carefully and said.

"Well, no matter if it's ginseng or not, we'll collect a batch and bring it back. If it's really ginseng, our trip won't be in vain."

"Yes, yes~"

"Whether it's worth it or not, take some back with you."

Chen Qi, Peng Chao and the others nodded immediately.

Some team members around who heard the news also gathered quickly, and after learning that this unremarkable thing might be ginseng, and one could be worth a few taels of silver, the team members immediately became excited.

I didn't find this gold or silver, but I didn't expect to find this kind of thing. One can be worth a few taels of silver, which is amazing.

One must know how big the forest in front of him is, it is almost endless, there must be a lot of this kind of ginseng in it, if there are thousands or tens of thousands, it is also a considerable amount of money.

Thinking of this, the team members immediately became excited.

Even Chen Feng began to show a smile, and began to order the team members to set up camp on the spot, and then everyone went to find this kind of ginseng, and mined these ginseng back.

The whole expedition began to get busy.

Originally, he just took a rest and didn't set up camp, but now he started to put up the tents and planned to stay here for a while.

The team members began to look around for ginseng again.

"Here is a plant~"

Peng Chao quickly found one and shouted excitedly.

"I found three here~"

Some team members replied immediately.

"Haha, I found a large area here, I counted, one, two, three, four, five... there are more than a dozen."

Soon some players responded with a smile.

Chen Feng was also looking around carefully, while listening to the cheerful laughter of the team members.

This is the case with the expedition team. When there is no harvest, there are always various complaints.

But whenever something is discovered and harvested, the team members will throw away all the complaints, worries, dissatisfaction, etc., and replace them with joy and excitement.

"Is this ginseng?"

"Looking at it this way, it seems that there are a lot of them, not a few."

Listening to the team members shouting, and looking in front of them, it is easy to find. The red fruit is very bright and eye-catching, so it is easy to find.

There were a lot of them, far beyond Chen Feng's imagination. The team members easily found a lot of these things around. It seemed that no one went back to mine these things in this place.

Just like the grass that can be seen everywhere here, it is very common, very common, it can be seen almost everywhere, and it is not a rare thing.

In just one day of mining, more than [-] team members under Chen Feng found tens of thousands of plants, and when they were piled up, there was a huge pile.

So much so that in the evening, when Chen Feng and his team members gathered together, they couldn't help looking at these things carefully again.

"Is this really ginseng?"

"I think it's similar to radishes. It's everywhere. It's almost like grass. It's nothing special. There are a lot of them here."

"We found this whole bunch just by looking around."

"If this thing can be worth five taels of silver per plant, then we have mined at least tens of thousands of plants in one day. Doesn't this mean that we can get fifty thousand taels of silver in one day?"

"Crap~"

"I also think it's a little nonsense. I feel that this thing is similar to the roots of those ordinary plants at home. Could this be ginseng?"

"Second Hu, have you admitted your mistake?"

"Don't make everyone work in vain. If this thing is worthless, we will work in vain."

"That's right. It's worth a few taels of silver. This thing should be very rare. At least it shouldn't be seen everywhere."

"Yes, yes, hurry up and make it clear, I've been busy all day, if it's worthless, I'll cut you to death."

The team members looked at the ginseng piled up in front of them, and said to Hu Laoer.

Hu Laoer felt that he was wronged, looked carefully again and said: "I'm not sure, I have never eaten ginseng, and I only saw it once in the medical clinic."

"However, I can be sure that the ones seen in the medical hall are exactly the same as these, there is no difference, except that the ginseng in the medical hall does not have the branches, leaves and red fruits on it."

"The appearance and whiskers of the radish below are exactly the same, so it's definitely not wrong."

"Hu Er Er, everyone can't wait to come out, but they are all counting on these radishes to turn around, so don't make a mistake."

"That's right~"

Chen Feng listened to the words of the team members and pondered slightly.

To be honest, he has no confidence in his heart now.

There are really too many of these things here, they can be seen everywhere, and it is not a rare thing. It is a bit unrealistic to link it with ginseng, and one plant is worth five taels of silver.

He still understands the truth that rare things are valuable.

Although I have never eaten ginseng, the valuable things should be in small quantities.

My own expedition team of more than [-] people collected tens of thousands of plants in one day. It doesn't look like a rare thing anyway, and this thing is too common here.

"Okay, everyone, stop arguing~"

"Eat and drink quickly and go to bed."

"Regardless of whether this thing is worth money or not, we will mine it for two more days tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and bring some more back home. We will set off for the north the day after tomorrow."

"If this thing is valuable, then we will make a lot of money this trip, and we can make a lot of money by relying on this thing in the future."

"If this thing is worthless, we've just wasted a few more days, and there's nothing to say."

"Those who should sleep should go to sleep, and those who should be on duty should be on duty."

　Some book friends have guessed it, yes, this is ginseng, American ginseng, also called American ginseng~~
