"Xu Yan, look what that is!"
Tang Yiyi was led forward by Xu Yan, looking around, wondering if he could see some other game.
Suddenly, a plant with green leaves and red fruits in front of her caught her eye.
It's ginseng!
Xu Yan was also stopped by Tang Yiyi's exclamation and turned to look in the direction of Tang Yiyi's finger.
"It's a goblin." Xu Yan said in a low voice.
But everyone says this thing is poisonous, especially the roots that grow underground.
My grandmother told me that there was a man who worked as a servant for a landlord. He knew this and thought it was a good thing, so he dug a lot of it and took it home to eat. In the end, the servant kept bleeding from the nose and had diarrhea, and he became very weak. Everyone started to spread the rumor that it was poisonous because the goblins ate too much of it, so over time, no one dug it up anymore.
So Xu Yan didn't know why Tang Yiyi was so excited when he saw this.
Ginseng is also called ginseng, but the name varies in different regions.
"Xu Yan." Tang Yiyi looked at Xu Yan with a sneaky look.
Xu Yan was puzzled by Tang Yiyi's gaze and asked hurriedly, "What's wrong?"
Tang Yiyi jumped up and hugged Xu Yan's neck. Xu Yan staggered and reached out to hold Tang Yiyi to prevent her from falling.
"Xu Yan, we are going to get rich!" Tang Yiyi kissed Xu Yan on the face excitedly, then jumped down again and concentrated on digging ginseng.
Xu Yan was different. He just stood there in a daze.
It felt like there was a drum beating in my heart, over and over again.
Tang Yiyi dug out a ginseng before he gave up the thought of savoring the kiss.
"Let's go home. We can dig these up later. The older they are, the more valuable they are." Tang Yiyi said to Xu Yan with a smile on his face, holding the ginseng in his hand.
"This thing is poisonous." Xu Yan didn't want to hit Tang Yiyi, but considering safety, he still said it.
"Why do you say that?" Tang Yiyi was puzzled.
Xu Yan told him what his grandmother had told him, and Tang Yiyi was secretly happy: I can make a lot of money now!
"This thing is not poisonous, it is a tonic. If you eat less, it will be nourishing, but if you eat too much, it will have the opposite effect, which is equivalent to being poisonous. So that person must have eaten too much and got a sore throat, which led to the nosebleed and diarrhea." Tang Yiyi explained it to Xu Yan.
It must be that person who doesn't know how to take it. He thinks it's a good thing so he eats more, without knowing the side effects at all.
"Besides, this thing is very valuable. Look at it, it's a little small and shouldn't be that old. If someone wants it, I can sell it for this amount!" Tang Yiyi stretched out five fingers.
"Five dollars?" Xu Yan asked in a daze.
Tang Yiyi thought she must have heard it wrong, and was stunned for a moment, then reacted.
Because someone had misinformed us before, and no one knew about it, it was normal that people didn’t know about it and didn’t understand the price.
"Five thousand!"
This is wild ginseng, and although it is not very big, it must be quite old. Selling it for 5,000 yuan might be too little for me.
As for this wild ginseng, if it were put into 2023, it would probably be worth tens of thousands.
Xu Yan also suspected that he had heard it wrong. This tree root could actually be sold for so much money.
Seeing the disbelief in Xu Yan's eyes, Tang Yiyi put the ginseng in the basket and said, "Let's go home and let it continue to grow. When we find out who can buy it, we will come back to dig it."
"Okay." Xu Yan responded.
The two walked down the mountain hand in hand.
When Tang Yiyi was digging ginseng in the mountains, Li Shijing was surrounded by everyone and walked towards the village chief's house with a smile on his face.
"Li Zhiqing, you are going to get married. You look energetic and in good spirits." Someone said this, and it instantly caused an uproar among everyone.
Li Shijing smiled and said nothing, but he really enjoyed listening to these people talk.
The corners of his mouth rose with pride, and his mind was thinking about the excitement of having an affair with Xie Qingqing last night.
Thinking of looking for another opportunity next time.
"You're talking about it. It's not like you haven't married before. This wife you married is different from being a shrew. You can hug your wife to sleep every day. It's so beautiful just thinking about it."
"You little brat, you want to get married too? You'd better wait a little longer. Look, your hair hasn't grown out yet. It will be awkward even if you get married!" A slightly older man immediately took over the conversation.
After that, everyone burst into laughter. The stinky kid's face turned red. He wanted to refute, but he thought that what the man said made sense, so he chose to remain silent and looked down silently.
I wish I could grow faster.
We soon arrived at the village chief's house, where a big double happiness pattern cut out of red paper was pasted on the door.
The door was full of people, all smiling as they watched Li Shijing walk towards the village chief's house.
"The groom is here, Xu Danian, Li Guifang, why don't you come out and welcome your new son-in-law!" Wang Caixia shouted in the crowd.
The sharp sound spread throughout the village chief's house, causing a group of aunts to burst into laughter.
Xu Danian, who was already unhappy, looked even darker, and the more he looked at Li Shijing in the crowd, the more he disdained him.
A pretty boy with fair hair and white complexion.
Instead, Li Guifang ran out happily to greet Li Shijing.
"Mom." Li Shijing shouted to Li Guifang.
Li Guifang was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling. She replied, "Hey, good boy, come in quickly. Yueyue is waiting for you!"
Li Shijing was also very happy. Thinking of Xu Yue waiting for him, he felt itchy.
Although he had been staying here for the past few days, he slept in a separate room. Xu Danian didn't give him any chance to get close to Xu Yue.
Sometimes, Xu Yue would come to see him secretly, but would always be discovered by Xu Danian, who would angrily tell Xu Yue to go back.
