Chapter 51 Top Grade Purple Ganoderma Lucidum

"It should work. But I heard from my old man that you need to know how to take care of herbs when you grow them, because each herb likes to grow in different places.

How about this, when we go to sell herbs tomorrow, we can ask Doctor Wang if he has any books on how to grow herbs?"

Zhou Huaian frowned, "Why is it so troublesome? Look at these fragrant incense sticks, and those spatholobi and chuanxiong. No one has ever taken care of them, but they are still growing well."

Yang Chunyan didn't know how to explain it to him, "You see, it grows well in the wild, but it may not grow well if we take it back.

I think every herb has its favorite place to grow, just like the mountain incense, which I have never seen on the edge of a field, only in the woods. "

Zhou Huaian recalled that when he was a child, he saw a beautiful orchid flower and wanted to dig it up and plant it. His grandmother told him that things that are born and raised by nature have spirituality. You see it is living well outside, but it will not survive if you take it back.

"What you said makes sense. Let's ask Doctor Wang tomorrow if there is such a book. If it's too much trouble, let's just forget it!"

Yang Chunyan mercilessly exposed him, "You are not afraid of trouble, you are lazy! I wonder who made you lazy?"

Zhou Huaian was not angry when she exposed him. "My grandma spoiled me. When she was around, my mom and my husband didn't dare to control me." He paused. "I think it's good to come out and dig herbs to sell. There are herbs everywhere in the mountains. They will grow back after I dig them."

Your grandmother can’t protect you for the rest of your life, and in the end you’ll be the one who suffers!

Yang Chunyan rolled her eyes at him. "Why don't you think about this? When everyone in the village knows that they can make money by digging herbs and selling them, young and old will go up the mountain to dig herbs and sell them. Where will you go to dig them then?"

Zhou Huaian thought about it and felt that it was true. "It seems that it is best to grow it by ourselves. At least it is more profitable than growing corn and sorghum." He raised his head and looked at Yang Chunyan with sparkling eyes. "Yan'er, should we dig up the Manshanxiang and plant it now?"

Yang Chunyan shook her head: "It's not easy to keep the plants alive now. Besides, before the family division, my mother and husband won't agree to let us use the land to grow herbs. We can decide after the family division."

Zhou Huaian nodded repeatedly, "You are right. If you use the fields to grow herbs, I will definitely beat you to death."

Yang Chunyan glanced at him and said, "If you are as steady and reliable as my elder brother, maybe he will believe you."

"Even if you are my eldest brother, it's useless!" Zhou Huaian glanced at her, "If you don't believe it, go back and ask!"

Yang Chunyan felt unsure, "Forget it, my mom and my husband will definitely not agree!"

The two of them talked as they worked, and in no time, all the fragrant grass in the forest was harvested.

Yang Chunyan carried the Manshanxiang to an empty space, pulled down the chicken-arrow vines hanging on the branches, sorted them and piled them together. The disgusting smell of runny chicken shit from the chicken-arrow vines spread instantly.

Cistanche deserticola is also a herbal medicine that has the effects of dispelling wind and dampness, digesting food and eliminating accumulation, relieving cough and relieving pain.

It can also be crushed and applied externally to treat unknown swellings and infections.

The reason why it is called chicken-arrow vine is that when its leaves are rubbed, they emit a foul smell like chicken poop.

The vines of the cockscomb are slender and curved, very tough, the surface of the vines is hairless or has slight hairs, the leaves are oval or rectangular in shape, with thin tips and round bases.

The flower is in the shape of a trumpet flower, with pink or purple in the middle, and the five scattered petals are serrated, which looks very fresh and cute.

Ignore its smell, it is actually a climbing plant with pretty little flowers.

Because its vines are very tough, villagers cut them to make hemp ropes when they forget to bring ropes when cutting grass or chopping firewood.

Zhou Huaian wrinkled his nose, "It's so stinky, I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Cockspurred vine is also a herb. I told you last time that there are no wild herbs in the mountains, and those who know them are all treasures! When you buy a book on medicine, take a good look at it."

"It's enough for you to recognize it. Why should I learn it?"

"A lazy person doesn't care much. Why don't you think about it? If you know how to recognize herbs, you can dig up good and valuable herbs wherever you go and sell them for money."

"I think you are the one with the most crooked ideas!" Zhou Huaian rolled his eyes at Yang Chunyan, "You won't feel comfortable if you don't squeeze me dry."

Yang Chunyan glared at him and pointed at the shrub next to her that was covered with lavender flowers. "I don't want to bother with you! Pick up the rest and I'll go cut the shrub."

"Tap it with a stick first to avoid being bitten by insects."

Zhou Huaian spoke kindly, and Yang Chunyan did not argue with him. She smiled and replied, "I understand."

Yang Chunyan used a bamboo pole to knock the vines around, then picked up a medicine hoe and used a pickaxe to hook the chicken-foot vine off the branch.

After hooking down all the cockscomb vines, I began to gather them together. When I was pulling a vine, I suddenly saw a dead maple tree behind the bushes.

Thinking that purple Ganoderma lucidum likes to grow on maple trees the most, she quickly pushed aside the bushes and walked over. At a glance, she saw a dozen or so purple Ganoderma lucidum of excellent quality growing sparsely on a maple tree stump that required several people to hug.

Purple Ganoderma lucidum is a medicinal fungus that has nourishing and strengthening effects, brain-boosting and anti-inflammatory effects. It has significant effects on improving the body's immunity, tolerance to hypoxia, anti-fatigue and sedation.

The cap of Ganoderma lucidum is semicircular or nearly circular, and the flesh is uniformly brown to dark brown; the stipe is brown, dark brown or gray-brown.

Both the cap and the stem have a unique purple-black paint luster.

The growth cycle of purple Ganoderma lucidum is one year. If you miss the best picking period, the Ganoderma lucidum will go bad.

Some of them will be infested with insects, which will drill into the back of the cap and eat up all the essence of the Ganoderma lucidum, leaving only an empty shell.

Yang Chunyan excitedly pushed aside the bushes and crawled over, lying in front of the dead tree. The two purple Ganoderma lucidum caps in front of her looked like two fans.

The two next to it are slightly smaller, some are as big as the mouth of a two-bucket bowl, and some are as big as the mouth of a bowl. Some of them have a circle of white edge on the cap.

There are also two purple Ganoderma lucidum with a small circle of white edges on the skirt of the cap. This kind of Ganoderma lucidum is not fully mature yet and is still growing.

The most important thing is that these Ganoderma lucidum are at the best picking period and have no signs of insect bites.

Yang Chunyan thought it was because there was a Cistanche deserticola growing nearby.

She walked up the trunk and came to the broken stump, where she found a dozen more flowers on it and also on the roots of the maple tree.

There was a Ganoderma lucidum flower that was spewing spores, and the leaves of the grass and saplings next to it turned yellow.

Yang Chunyan looked at these purple Ganoderma lucidum with a smile on her face. She had collected herbs for decades in her previous life, but had never collected so many and such good Ganoderma lucidum.

It was really a stroke of luck that even the door panel couldn't stop it.

"Huaian, come and see, there are so many purple Ganoderma lucidum here." Yang Chunyan patted a purple Ganoderma lucidum, held the stem with a little force and picked it down, then shouted happily to Zhou Huaian.

Zhou Huaian threw down the chicken-arrow vine and ran towards her, asking as he ran: "Is it worth it? Is the Polygonum multiflorum more valuable or the Purple Ganoderma lucidum more valuable?"

In his eyes, anything that is valuable is a good thing, and something that is worthless is useless no matter how good it is.

Yang Chunyan held up the purple Ganoderma lucidum and looked at him with a smile: "These purple Ganoderma lucidum are of good quality, and the price should be not much different from that of Shouwu."

"Really?" Zhou Huaian looked at her in surprise.

"Hmm!" Yang Chunyan squatted down and pulled up a purple Ganoderma lucidum, held its shiny purple stem, and continued to pick Ganoderma lucidum.

Zhou Huaian also plucked one and said, "We're going to Ning'an tomorrow. Nothing to buy, right?"

"Nothing to buy." Yang Chunyan put the purple Ganoderma lucidum in her hand aside and glanced at him. "Huai'an, do you want to buy a bicycle?"
