Ye Ran sighed, "Nothing is easy!"
Lu Yi smiled and said, "That's right. If you're lucky, you can become rich overnight. If you're unlucky, you might die in the mountains and no one will even know."
That's why ginseng has been valued since ancient times!
After saying that, he carefully dug open the ginseng root, only using tools to carefully pry open parts that he couldn't dig by hand.
Lu Yi explained to Ye Ran, "For a ginseng plant to be of good quality, not even a single root can be broken."
After Lu Yi carefully dug out all the roots of the ginseng, he gently shook off the loose soil from the roots.
Looking at the old ginseng that was almost human-shaped, Ye Ran and Lu Yi could not hide their excitement.
Ye Ran's eyes were full of admiration, "This is the first time I've ever seen such a big ginseng!"
Last time at the hospital, I saw a doctor prescribe a small piece of ginseng to a patient, and it cost him three thousand yuan!
How much does this ginseng cost?
Lu Yi chuckled, "I've seen quite a few good things, but I've never seen such a large ginseng before."
A few years ago, an old ginseng caused a sensation in the medicinal herb market in Beijing. It was dug up from the Changbai Mountains.
It was said to be a ginseng that was one or two hundred years old, and it eventually sold for a sky-high price of 360,000 yuan. But looking at it, that ginseng wasn't even half the size of this one.
Ye Ran's gaze towards the ginseng plant in front of her intensified. "It seems we won't need to sell gold anymore. We can just sell a ginseng plant directly. One plant is worth almost a pile of gold!"
Lu Yi smiled and nodded, "That's fine, but this kind of thing is very eye-catching, so it's best not to take it out."
Ye Ran sighed, "That's true! But we won't waste them; we'll keep them all as family heirlooms!"
"Haha! You're right, the kids will definitely adore you in the future!"
"Of course! I heard that Old Liu hasn't been feeling well lately. Do you think we should send him one?"
Lu Yi stroked his chin. "Okay, but we definitely can't just give it away like this."
Ye Ran took the ginseng from Lu Yi's hand, "Then you should dig it out first, and we'll think about it after you've dug it out."
"Dig up two! One for Grandpa too."
Lu Yi nodded, rolled up his sleeves, and got busy again, finally digging out two more old ginseng roots.
The two people carried the ginseng to the house they had built in the space, found several jade boxes, and carefully placed the three old ginseng roots inside.
The next morning, when the two of them got up to have breakfast, they took the jade box to the dining room.
Lu Tian was eating breakfast inside when he saw them come in. He greeted them with a smile, "Come and eat! It's still warm! What are you carrying?"
Lu Yi sat down to Lu Tian's left and handed him the jade box.
Lu Tian curiously opened the jade box, and after seeing what was inside, he looked at Lu Yi blankly.
"Where...where did you get this?"
Lu Yi didn't speak, but calmly drank his porridge. Ye Ran smiled and said, "Didn't you want to make ginseng wine yesterday? So we came up with a way to get some."
Lu Tian was overjoyed and didn't ask how he got it. He just held the jade box in his hand and looked at it again and again.
"My granddaughter-in-law is the best! How can this thing grow so big? It must be at least several hundred years old! Oh my! It's almost the size of a radish!"
Before Lu Tian could finish celebrating, Lu Yi calmly said, "There are still two more! See if you can tell me how to send them to Grandpa and Old Liu."
