The team members gathered around, some squatted down, some stretched their necks, staring at the astragalus plant without blinking, listening attentively.
Uncle Zhang looked at it carefully, nodded his head and kept saying, "So that's how it is. I saw this grass in the mountains before, but I didn't know it was so precious."
"Be careful when picking it." Lin Zhiyue continued, "First, use a small hoe to gently dig up the soil around the astragalus. Be gentle and don't break the roots.
