Chapter 108: One hundred and fifty years old ginseng? This luck is simply too good!



When Shen Qingli was exploring, she found a familiar plant under a tree.

It is about 60 cm tall, with palmate compound leaves, three large leaves, two small leaves, and a total of five branches. The most eye-catching thing is the cluster of berry-like red fruits swaying in the wind on the plant.

She had seen this plant in Douyin's video in her previous life.

What was it?

Just as Shen Qingli was thinking hard.

The 98K was circling around the dead wild boar.

After turning around a few times, 98K raised its hind legs and urinated near the little wild boar.

With this pee here, I believe no blind beast would dare to steal the meat.

Because this urine carries its scent!

Its body can restrain its breath, making the beasts in the forest think it is just an ordinary dog, but its urine cannot restrain its breath.

After Shen Mingan and Shen Qingyu prepared the bark skateboard, 98K ran to the little wild boar and barked twice.

"Xiao Jiuba, what do you mean? We can't take this wild boar away, so let's leave it here for now!" Shen Ming'an touched 98K's head.

"By the way, I almost forgot about the pheasants and rabbits we hunted before." Shen Qingyu slapped his head and said after seeing the little wild boar.

"Woof woof!" 98K nodded.

So this is what it means!

This little money-grubber.

Seeing 98K nod, Shen Mingan couldn't help but shook his head and smiled: "You just wanted Xiaoyu to take the pheasant and hare we put in front, right?"

98K nodded, with an expression that showed that he was teachable.

"Xiao Yu, go get it in front and bring it back and put it together with the wild boar." After Shen Ming'an finished speaking, he came to the place where Shen Qingli had just slid down, adjusted the bark skateboard and said, "Xiao Jiuba, let's go!"

Upon hearing this, 98K quickly jumped into Shen Mingan's arms.

Shen Mingan held the 98K and sat directly on the thick bark skateboard at the moment the bark slid down.

Shuba quickly disappeared with the man and the dog.

Seeing the two of them go down, Shen Qingyu did not dare to delay and walked quickly to the place where he had placed the backpack before.

"Get out of here!"

When Shen Qingyu arrived, he saw a lone jackal about to eat a hare in a backpack.

Shen Qingyu quickly shouted and picked up a stone on the ground and threw it at the jackal.

The jackal was frightened and ran away quickly.

Shen Qingyu did not dare to delay and quickly poured the contents of the three backpacks into one, then stacked the three backpacks together and ran away carrying them on his back.

Because jackals like to live in groups, Shen Qingyu can deal with one, but if there are more, he will just be feeding them.

Shen Qingyu ran around for a while and saw that the jackal did not catch up, so he ran to where the little wild boar was with confidence.

When they arrived at the place, Shen Qingyu placed the backpack next to the little wild boar, and quickly sat on the tree bark and slid down.

What Shen Qingyu didn't know was that the moment he slid down, a jackal appeared sneakily near the little wild boar.

At the bottom of the valley, Shen Qingli finally remembered what this plant was.

She was overjoyed and took out a small shovel from the ring space and prepared to start digging.

At this moment, a familiar exclamation came from behind: "It's a hammer! It's a hammer that's quite old!"

"Dad, you guys are coming down!" Shen Qingli put the small shovel back into the space without leaving any trace.

"I didn't expect there would be a mallet here." Shen Ming'an squatted down and carefully observed the ginseng plant.

The more I watch, the more frightened I become!

According to the method taught to him by the old head who had been collecting ginseng for many years, Shen Mingan can be sure that this mallet is at least ten or twenty years old.

"Dad, do you understand this?" Shen Qingli asked in surprise.

"Yeah!" Shen Ming'an nodded. "I once learned a little about the mallet from an old ginseng picker... a ginseng picker."

Shen Ming'an had worked in the Heilongjiang Provincial Military Region for several years. Once when he was on a mission in Changbai Mountain, he rescued a ginseng picker, who was an old leader with many years of experience in mountaineering.

In order to thank Shen Ming'an for saving his life, the old man taught him all his skills.

Unfortunately, Shen Mingan didn't have much vacation time, so he only learned the basics.

"What a pity I didn't bring a mallet lock or a mallet chisel!"

Shen Ming'an sighed, stood up, pulled out the red belt from around his waist, rolled up his trouser legs, and pulled out the dagger tied to his calf.

This dagger was captured from the Japanese!

Shen Mingan found it very convenient to use, so he did not hand it in.

Shen Mingan used a dagger to cut a piece of red cloth from the red belt and tied it to the temporary treasure lock stick made of branches and the ginseng plant.

Then he tied the thinner red belt back to his waist.

He did not put away the dagger used to cut the red belt, but used it to cut a few pieces of wood to use as hammers and chisels.

Following the old foreman's instructions, Shen Ming'an knelt three times and kowtowed nine times, then he lay on the ground and began to dig up the ginseng bit by bit.

Digging wild ginseng is a slow job that takes time and effort.

Especially the wild ginseng that is old and has well-developed roots, which is more troublesome.

Because aged wild ginseng, even its roots are very nutritious.

More importantly, for wild ginseng of the same year, the better the quality, the higher the selling price!

Shen Ming'an followed the old foreman's instructions and carefully dug wild ginseng while lying on the ground. When Shen Qingyu came down, he had only dug a little bit.

The more Shen Mingan dug, the happier he felt. This ginseng was probably more than twenty or thirty years old.

Just as Shen Qingli and Shen Qingyu took the 98K around the valley several times, they came back and leaned against a tree trunk to take a nap out of boredom.
