Chapter 59



When Lu Chuanbei saw the people Yang Bai brought with him, he immediately understood: "Is it about the ginseng garden?"

Yang Bai nodded a little embarrassedly: "Yes, we want to talk to you about this matter, okay?"

"What's the difference between a yes and a no? This matter originally concerned our village. He took over the ginseng garden without consulting us. It was his responsibility to do so..."

"I handed over the ginseng garden to the country." Lu Chuanbei's words shocked the villagers who were just talking loudly.

【What? 】

[I think I heard it wrongly. I heard something about turning it in...]

[You heard correctly, Lu Chuanbei did say he handed it in.]

"No way! This is a whole ginseng garden, worth tens of millions! How could he possibly have handed over all the money he earned?"

[I don't believe it, is it a lie?]

So, Lu Chuanbei really handed over the ginseng garden? He didn't even keep a single ginseng plant?

[I suddenly became a fan of Luchuan Beilu...]

[He's so damn charming that he can hand over tens of millions of dollars without blinking an eye.]

"Hand it over?" Yang Bai looked at Lu Chuanbei in surprise.

Lu Chuanbei nodded: "Yes, I handed the ginseng garden over to the country."

As soon as these words fell, the villagers of Beiyang Village became excited: "Why did you hand over the ginseng garden?"

"The ginseng garden was discovered on our mountain. Why would you, a person from another village, hand over something from our village?"

"It's good enough that our village allows you to record the show here, but that doesn't mean you can dispose of our village property!"

[Good fellow, just by opening your mouth, you've become the property of your village?]

[Aren't the people in this village too snobbish? ]

If I remember correctly, Tiantian was the first to discover the ginseng garden. Isn't it true that Chinese herbal medicines are marked by whoever discovers them first? So the export ginseng garden they're talking about is in their village?

If Tiantian hadn't discovered the ginseng garden, your village wouldn't have even found one in a hundred years, right? And you still have the nerve to claim it's from your village?

[They're right. The ginseng garden was discovered on the mountain in Beiyang Village, so it stands to reason that the village should have a share.]

[According to this statement, does that mean that if anyone digs up medicinal herbs from this mountain, everyone in Beiyang Village can claim them as theirs?]

【The villagers say this, it really does seem like they have a bad impression of me.】

[As expected, no one can remain calm when it comes to money.]

I think what the villagers said makes sense. The ginseng garden is such an important matter, Lu Chuanbei should definitely discuss it with the villagers before making any decisions.

[Yes, the ginseng garden is not a small amount of money. Why should Lu Chuanbei decide on behalf of the villagers whether to hand it over or not?]

[It feels like everyone up there is acting like a saint. Who would care whether the villagers agree or not when they find herbs in the mountains?]

According to the above argument, should all medicinal herbs found in our country be turned over to the state? After all, the whole country is our territory. Why should a village like yours make decisions for the country?

【that is……】

He Xuebin laughed out loud. "According to what you said, all the herbs found in the mountains are the property of the village. Then why don't you just give all the herbs you dig up in the mountains to the village? Why do you keep them for yourself and sell them for money?"

"T-This is different."

"What's the difference? They're both medicinal herbs. But since the ginseng garden is valuable and the herbs you dig are less valuable, why are they different?"

"Besides, you can't even give the herbs you dig from the mountains to the village for free, so why are you asking us to hand over our ginseng garden?"

"Besides, it was our Tiantian who discovered this ginseng garden first. If you have the ability, you can look for it yourself. Whoever finds it will own it. It's not a hero to be jealous of other people's things."

"you……"

"What do you mean by 'my'? Don't you know we're live streaming? Everything you're saying is being posted online. Do you dare to ask everyone to judge for themselves? Is it reasonable to dig herbs from the mountains and then share them with the villagers?"

He Xuebin's rapid-fire speech left the villagers speechless for a long time.

The old village chief's expression kept changing, and after a long while he finally said, "Let's go."

【Dabin is really good at speaking.】

【Dabin is mighty! 】

[Dabin is a match for a group.]

[Tsk tsk, the old village chief's expression changed.]

[But who can be blamed for this? It's not reasonable to give the herbs you dig to the villagers. It's not like the communal meals of decades ago where the whole village has to share them.]

As soon as the villagers left, He Xuebin immediately looked towards Lu Chuanbei: "Xiao Lu, were you serious just now? Did you really hand over the ginseng garden?"

"Yes." Lu Chuanbei nodded. "Rather than leaving the ginseng garden in my hands, it would be better for the country to realize its value."

"That's true, but this is ginseng. Don't you have any left for yourself?" He Xuebin asked Lu Chuanbei expectantly.

Lu Chuanbei shook his head: "No."

"You are such a ruthless person." He Xuebin said, "I was thinking of waiting for you to dig up the ginseng and then save one for me."

"Um... then you're too late. The ginseng garden now belongs to the state."

"Well, it's just that I'm not destined to be with it." He Xuebin sighed regretfully.

"Dad, don't sigh. It's just ginseng." He Jingnian patted his chest and said, "I'll find it for you later."

He Xuebin was amused: "Really? Then I'm waiting for you to find ginseng for me."

"Yeah, leave it to me." He Jingnian said confidently.

Hearing this, Song Tiantian also trotted over to Lu Chuanbei and looked at him expectantly: "Dad, do you like ginseng? If you do, I can find some for you."

"No." Lu Chuanbei was already frightened enough by this shock, and he didn't dare to do it a second time: "You'd better be quiet."

"Why can't I be at peace?" Song Tiantian was unconvinced: "I've been very well behaved."

"Yeah, just be good and run into the crack in the rock wall." Lu Chuanbei rubbed the little girl's head unhappily. "Do you know how scared I was at that time? I was so worried that something might happen to you in there."

Hearing this, Song Tiantian lowered her head in shame: "I was wrong."

"It's good that you know you were wrong. Don't go into such a dangerous place alone in the future, okay?" Lu Chuanbei said seriously to the little girl.

Song Tiantian nodded obediently: "Yes."

"Be good." Lu Chuanbei rubbed the girl's head again. The furry touch of the bun made Lu Chuanbei want to pinch it.

Song Tiantian obediently lowered her head and let Lu Chuanbei pinch her comfortably.

Lu Chuanbei nodded in satisfaction: "Okay, go get the soup recipe verses from the room, and we'll recite two of them."

"Yeah." Song Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief and quickly ran into the house.

After a while, he ran out of the room holding the soup recipe song.

It was the first time He Xuebin heard Song Tiantian reciting the soup recipe song. He looked at the thick brick in Song Tiantian's arms with interest and said, "Xiao Lu, you are teaching Tiantian to recite the soup recipe song to enlighten her, right?"

"Right." Lu Chuanbei took over the recipe and said, "Tiantian's grandfather runs a Chinese medicine store, so we've been cultivating Tiantian's knowledge of this since she was young."

"I knew it." He Xuebin said with a look of having guessed correctly, "But, this book is so thick, can Tiantian carry it all?"

"It's okay, take your time." Lu Chuanbei said modestly.

He Jingnian was already frightened by the book: "It's such a thick book, I can't memorize it even if I take my time."

"No, just memorize two passages a day and you'll be able to finish them quickly."

"Two articles? Is that difficult?"

"It's not difficult. You'll be able to memorize it in a short while."

"That's good." He Jingnian breathed a sigh of relief for his little friend.

But after hearing the song that Song Tiantian was about to sing, He Jingnian felt terrible.

He Xuebin was also startled and looked at Lu Chuanbei hurriedly: "Little Lu, you are too curly, aren't you? How can Tiantian recite such a long song? How can she recite it so well?"

"It's okay, sweet."

"Uncle He, I can do it."

Lu Chuanbei and Song Tiantian said in unison.

He Xuebin looked at the father and daughter and couldn't help shaking his head.

Then, he heard Song Tiantian fluently recite the entire Tangtou song that Lu Chuanbei had just recited.

"This, this, this..." He Xuebin couldn't help but look at the book in Lu Chuanbei's hand.

After seeing Song Tiantian recite it word for word, He Xuebin couldn't help but look back and forth between Lu Chuanbei and Song Tiantian: "Xiao Lu, did you guys memorize it in advance?"

Lu Chuanbei smiled and shook his head: "No, this is the first time Tiantian has recited this soup song."

"It's impossible that such a long article is difficult for me to read. How can Tiantian memorize it after listening to it only once?" He Xuebin felt extremely frightened.

[Seeing Dabinzi's frightened expression, I suddenly felt relieved. What should I do?]

[Not bad, not bad, this is what I want to see. ]

[I had the same expression when I heard Tiantian reciting the soup recipe song the day before yesterday...]

[We have materials for emoticons again! ]

[However, Tiantian's memory is truly amazing.]

[Look at my child, then look at Tiantian. It's really frustrating to compare yourself to others.]

I wonder if buying a book of soup recipes for my son to memorize will make him smarter...

Is this about the soup base rhyme? Is this a memory issue?

[Never mind, it's just a soup recipe, I'll buy it first.]

[I understand. I’ll place the order now…]

【Got it! 】

【Hey, I've placed my order and am back! 】

[Wow, it's already this hot? I'll go buy one too.]

Suddenly, a long-unsold soup recipe on Taobao suddenly saw a surge in purchases...
