Chapter 987 The Shocking Secret
The village chief winked and signaled the watering man not to say anything, but unfortunately the man had already picked up the water ladle and was about to water the medicine, so he didn't see the village chief's eyes. He watered the medicine field and said, " What I water is that the seedlings will grow!"

This name is really unfamiliar, Li Chunlan frowned and asked, "What is Miao Bichang?"

"You don't even know about such a famous medicine. It's a chemical fertilizer that promotes the growth of food. It's used in the medicine field. The medicine grows very well. Look at how vigorous our medicine is growing this year!" The medicine farmer was very interested I will introduce it to everyone.

"What, you actually applied chemical fertilizers to the medicinal materials?" Li Chunlan was shocked.

"Of course we have to apply chemical fertilizers. In the past, the output of our one-acre medicinal field was very small. Now, one mother medicinal field can produce hundreds of catties of crude medicine!" The Yaonong was very proud.

The village head on the side looked embarrassed. Of course he knew that chemical fertilizers cannot be used in Chinese herbal medicines, so he never mentioned it to the buyers.

The village chief didn't expect that Li Chunlan and Xie Zixiu would run into the field in person, just in time to break through this secret.

That drug farmer had slipped his mouth, but he didn't feel it, and was still rambling on about his experience in using chemical fertilizers.

Xie Zixiu's face turned livid, and he looked at the village chief angrily, "No chemical fertilizers, pesticides, or growth hormones can be used in the medicine field. This should have been written into the contract for you when we bought it. , why do you knowingly commit crimes?"

The village chief said with a bitter face, "I can't blame me completely for this matter. The main reason is that our medicine production is too low and we don't make any money at all. I increase production mainly to improve the lives of the villagers!"

Xie Zixiu shook his head, "If you do this, the villagers will earn a little more money, but have you ever thought that the medicine produced in this way has no effect at all?"

The village chief lowered his head in embarrassment, and his voice lowered a lot, "Why is it completely useless? I just used chemical fertilizers, the seeds of this medicinal material, and its normal environment have not changed!"

Both Li Chunlan and Xie Zixiu shook their heads. They didn't know what to say to such an ignorant person.

"You wait for my lawyer's letter," Xie Zixiu said with a stern face, and walked out of the medicine field angrily.

At this time, Director Liu and the others also finished taking samples of the medicinal materials and tested the preliminary results, "Professor Xie, Dean Li, the medicines in this place have no medicinal properties at all!"

Xie Zixiu replied with a sullen face, "They have applied chemical fertilizers to these medicines, and of course their medicinal properties are gone!"

Xie Zixiu's words reminded everyone of what the medicinal material purchaser said this morning. This year's medicinal material production is particularly good, so the purchase price will be very cheap.

Director Liu was speechless, "You mean, they used chemical fertilizers to increase the production of medicinal materials, which caused the medicinal materials to lose their medicinal properties?"

Li Chunlan nodded sadly.

She didn't know how to evaluate the behavior of the villagers.

Perhaps when the villagers decided to use chemical fertilizers, they did not think of this situation. Although the output of medicinal materials has increased, the prices have been lowered, so they still cannot achieve their goal of making a fortune.

Everyone left Baique Village with mixed feelings.

The village chief was obviously embarrassed. After being exposed, he never appeared in front of everyone again.

When I went to the next few villages, I found that the situation was the same as in Baique Village. All the medicinal materials with problems were grown after adding chemical fertilizers. The yield was extremely high, and the medicinal materials grew strong, but somehow the medicinal properties disappeared .

The mystery of the medicinal materials was solved, but everyone felt very heavy.Because this is not a small-scale problem, although most people in Jinghong are still growing medicinal materials honestly, but some people have such crooked thoughts, and sooner or later it will affect the people around them.

"No wonder many people now say that traditional Chinese medicine is useless. How can Chinese medicine grown in this way be useful?" Director Liu was very emotional.

In addition to applying chemical fertilizers to medicinal materials, during the processing of medicinal materials, roasting and frying are very particular, and all of these links are indispensable.

If someone cuts corners, then the medicine that grows is useless.

Donna didn't know why, and no one explained to her what happened. Everyone came to work, only she was wearing high heels like a big lady.

Everyone seemed to have seen the future of traditional Chinese medicine, and the whole atmosphere was very dull. No one talked much until lunch time.

"I still have to collect a batch of salvia miltiorrhiza for redispensing," Li Chunlan cheered up.

"Next to Jing Hong, there is a place where medicines are also grown. I'll accompany you to take a look there this afternoon!" Xie Zixiu also collected his emotions.

Donna became angry again when she saw the two of them singing together, and smashed the noodles in the bowl with all her might, "People in this place are really stingy, they don't eat good white rice, but they want to eat some noodles, and they're corn noodles!"

Xie Zixiu was too lazy to talk about this apprentice anymore.

After eating, Tang Na went back to her room with the excuse of feeling unwell, Xie Zixiu ignored her, and let the car set off, heading towards Songwan Township next door.

Songwan Township is even poorer than Jinghong because it is deep in the mountains.

Up to now, there is no decent road to get out of the mountain. A few years ago, I received donations from overseas, so I reluctantly got some gravel to pave the road so that it can be opened to traffic.

Walking along the rugged mountain road, all the way towards the depths of the mountain, looking at the trees in front of them, they could only feel that the sky was getting dark ahead of time.

"I didn't expect there were people living in this mountain!" Li Chunlan only felt very emotional.

"During the times of war in ancient times, people still thought that this deep mountain and old forest was a paradise. They didn't have to pay government taxes and they could avoid war disasters!" Xie Zixiu said with a smile.

After walking for two hours on the stone road in the old forest that covered the sky and the sun, everyone finally saw the family.

Several people got out of the car and asked the locals to find out that this is Songyuan Township.

Few outsiders came to this place. After seeing Xie Zixiu and his party still driving, all the children in the village ran over to watch the excitement.

Li Chunlan took out a bag of candy and generously distributed it to the children, "My children, where is the head of your village?"

These children ate candy and were about to do something for the foreign guests. When they heard Li Chunlan's words, they ran and jumped to lead her to the village chief.

What surprised Li Chunlan even more was that the head of this village turned out to be an old lady.

The old lady is quite old, and her hair has turned into snow-white color, but her back is not bent, her eyes are not dim, and her voice is quite loud, "You are all guests from outside, you go to Songwan Village Come, do you want to buy medicinal materials, or visit relatives and friends?"
