Chapter 298 Discovering Snow Ginseng



Jiang Tiantian glanced at the young man who was jumping for joy and beginning to fall in love, thought for a moment, and finally gave him a reminder.

"It's best to discuss this decision with your parents and get their consent."

"Otherwise, I'm afraid they will try every possible way to stop you later."

This young man has lived under the strict discipline of Cheng's father since he was a child. Suddenly, the son grew up, his wings were strong enough, and he wanted to fly solo.

I wonder if a patriarch like Mr. Cheng, who has a strong control desire, can accept this?

When Cheng Tianyu heard this, the smile on his face faded a little and his eyes dimmed a little.

"Sister Tiantian, I know. Don't worry, I will find a way to convince my parents and won't cause any trouble for you."

Jiang Tiantian nodded with satisfaction, "That's good, now it's like a man."

"I am only responsible for helping you with the admission procedures here. You have to handle your family affairs yourself."

"Yeah, I understand." Cheng Tianyu nodded seriously, clenched his fists and cheered himself up.

This time, he will never shrink back or escape again. He will fight hard for the person he loves and the life he wants.

After Jiang Tiantian returned to the Cha family.

Cha Jizu was seen walking in the yard with his hands behind his back, looking very happy, and his steps were a little lighter than usual.

Jiang Tiantian tilted her head and asked curiously, "Grandpa, what happy thing happened?"

When Cha Jizu saw Jiang Tiantian coming back, he waved to her and said, "Tiantian, come here. Grandpa wants to ask you a favor."

Jiang Tiantian didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Grandpa, if you have anything to say, just tell me directly, there's no need to use the word begging."

Cha Jizu smiled happily, "I think this matter really depends on you."

Just because of Jiang Tiantian's incredible luck, wouldn't it be a better chance of success if we asked her to help find something?

Jiang Tiantian opened her big eyes, looked straight at Cha Jizu, and said jokingly, "Grandpa, can you tell me what's going on first?"

"Let me make it clear first. I won't do anything that involves robbery or anything that violates the law or taboos."

"I am a good citizen." Jiang Tiantian straightened her back and said proudly.

Cha Jizu pointed at her unhappily and scolded her with a smile, "You are naughty."

He put his hand down, and the joy on his face deepened. "Don't worry, it's a good thing."

"Just now, the second kid from the village came over and said that when they were grazing, they met nomadic herders on the other side of the mountain. They said they found traces of century-old snow ginseng there."

"I thought you have good luck and a keen nose, so if you come with me to look for it, maybe the chance of finding it will be higher."

"Oh, that's it? No problem." Jiang Tiantian nodded without thinking when she heard it.

Cha Jizu smiled with relief, knowing that this girl was a straightforward person.

"Come here first, I'll teach you how to identify snow ginseng." Cha Jizu said, and walked towards his pharmacy.

In the pharmacy.

Cha Jizu held a very small snow ginseng in his hand and showed it to Jiang Tiantian.

"Snow ginseng is a perennial herb that grows mostly under forests, on grassy slopes or on rocky slopes at altitudes between 3,000 and 5,000 meters."

"Snow ginseng can harmonize the five internal organs, calm the mind, and also nourish the blood, replenish essence and strengthen qi. It is a very precious Chinese medicinal material."

Cha Jizu gently stroked the snow ginseng in his hand and said with emotion, "This snow ginseng is probably several decades old, but this one is already very rare."

"This was given to me by a nomadic herder who brought his son to see a doctor before, and he forced it on me as medical expenses."

As Cha Jizu said this, he turned around and took out a dry weed from a drawer and handed it to Jiang Tiantian.

"Snow ginseng is the root of a herbaceous plant, and its entire branch looks like this."

Jiang Tiantian took it, held it in her hand and looked at it carefully, and asked Xiaoqi to save the scanned data.

When we get to the mountain, we will just send out a drone to search like casting a net.

This is much faster than manual searching.

Cha Jizu went on to explain, “Because snow ginseng grows at extremely high altitudes, many people call it the medicine closest to the sky.”

"It is also difficult to find because it grows at a high altitude, especially those of a certain age, which are even rarer to see."

Jiang Tiantian asked curiously, "Then why don't the nomadic herders just pick them up when they see them?"

Cha Jizu smiled when he heard this, "You don't understand this, right? It wasn't discovered by nomadic herdsmen, but by cattle and sheep that were let out to graze. The herdsmen saw a sheep carrying one back at night, and only then did they know there was one nearby."

"But we still need to find out where exactly it is. Don't think the area is small. Many cattle and sheep can walk more than ten kilometers a day."

Jiang Tiantian suddenly realized, "I see. But now the scope has been narrowed down a lot, it should be easy to find."

Cha Jizu nodded, "I thought so too. It's so hard to find it, and if I don't look for it, I will regret it."

Jiang Tiantian also nodded in agreement.

Knowing that there are viruses in that area, we certainly can't let it go.

Cha Jizu pointed at the herbs in Jiang Tiantian's hand and continued to explain, "The branches and leaves of snow ginseng also have certain medicinal value. The whole herb can play an anti-inflammatory role and can also treat headaches, fractures, etc."

Jiang Tiantian nodded as if she was being taught. "It has many uses. Should we collect the entire snow ginseng, including the flowers, leaves and roots?"

Cha Jizu smiled and nodded, "If it's convenient, of course it's better to bring back the whole plant."

Jiang Tiantian stretched out her hand and snapped her fingers, "I understand."

"But, Grandpa, you are already so old, and you don't want to go over mountains and rivers and go to places with such high altitudes. Don't worry, I will take care of it and I will definitely pick them for you."

Cha Jizu retorted angrily, "Why, do you dislike my old age?"

"I'm telling you, I'm in good health. If it comes to climbing a mountain, you may not be as good as me."

"Thinking back to when I was young, I went up the mountain alone to collect herbs. For a rare herb, I went to cliffs, high mountains, deep streams, dragon pools and tiger dens... Is there any place I haven't been to?"

"You didn't know where you were then?"

Jiang Tiantian helped Cha Jizu to sit down at the table with a smile, "Yes, yes, Grandpa, you are still strong and healthy, you can kill a blind bear without any problem."

"I mean, why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?"

"Just leave this kind of small matter to me. It's not your turn to do it yourself."

Cha Jizu glanced at Jiang Tiantian with amusement and said lovingly, "You are the only one who has a sweet mouth."

However, Cha Jizu also knew that if he really went with them, although his body was fine, he was old after all, and his speed would not be fast, and he might even hold them back.

If we went early in the morning, we might be able to get back that evening.

However, it doesn’t seem appropriate to let Jiang Tiantian go alone.

Cha Jizu said without question, "How about this, Grandpa won't go. I'll let the two apprentices from the clinic go with you."
