Chapter 234 Cornucopia
There was no conversation that night. Jiang Xiaoxiao talked to the old lady for a long time, and then they both fell asleep.
It's been a day after all.
Jiang Xiaoxiao didn't even know when Song Moting would come back.
After breakfast, they prepared to go to the fields.
Jiang Xiaoxiao led the way, after all, this ginseng field was related to each and every one of them.
Besides, she also wanted to know why these ginseng seedlings did not grow in her own space, but were watered with the spring water in the space.
What is the current situation?
Those rice and wheat seedlings are much taller than those in other wheat fields, but she doesn't know if the same effect applies to ginseng, so she thought about going to the fields to take a look.
Song Moting didn't stop going to the fields just because the old man and the old lady were around.
He is the captain who leads by example. Besides, the old man and the old woman went directly to the director of the forest farm. People of their age can talk to each other.
The old man still wants to take a walk around the forest farm.
Song Moting took his men directly down to the ground.
Jiang Xiaoxiao entered the ginseng field.
When I first saw this seedling, I was a little stunned. It really is growing too outstanding!
Logically speaking, although they had grown the ginseng seedlings in advance, they had of course smuggled them into space in advance, but she was afraid of being discovered at the time, so she only did it for a moment.
It shouldn't grow so fast.
Look, these ginseng seedlings have already bloomed and borne fruit. How long has it been?
It has only been a few months, and Jiang Xiaoxiao is a little curious about how big the ginseng under the seedling has grown now.
You should know that the ginseng they grow here can be produced in one year. Of course, it is not valuable, only a few dollars per kilogram. But there are also those that can be grown for many years. The longer they are grown, the higher the price will naturally be.
But she was unsure.
While pulling out the weeds, Jiang Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to pull up a ginseng seedling.
In the end, it didn't move.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was stunned. The only explanation for why the ginseng seedlings couldn't be pulled out was that the ginseng underneath was growing well.
Jiang Xiaoxiao had no choice but to reach out and dig up the surrounding soil, and dug out a ginseng. The ginseng has grown for a long time, with long stalks, dense bowls, round stalks, plump bodies, deep and dense spiral patterns, date-seed-shaped tips, pearly bumps, and tough fibrous roots that are not easy to break. The ones with all five shapes are the best mountain ginseng.
Of course, not all ginsengs have all five shapes. Due to the influence of various natural environments, a ginseng that only appears to have a few of the five shapes may also be a good ginseng.
But they only had it for a few months.
This was seven or seven years ago, not a century later, when the conditions for large-scale cultivation of wild ginseng were not yet met.
The wild ginseng we grow is basically the same as raising chickens and ducks, and it can be grown in two or three months.
But people who know the business will definitely not charge a high price.
The problem is that this wild ginseng has grown into all five shapes in just a few months. The iron wire patterns have become much denser and the peel has become darker and darker.
This is already very good wild ginseng.
Jiang Xiaoxiao looked at the wild ginseng in surprise, and there was an extra person next to it.
Song Moting was also surprised when he saw it.
"This ginseng has grown so well? It looks like a ten-year-old wild ginseng at least."
Jiang Xiaoxiao turned around and nodded bitterly. How to explain this?
"Yeah, Brother Song, this is too weird!"
The look in the eyes and the expression on his face were so lifelike, showing the surprise and ignorance of the situation.
Song Moting just felt that Jiang Xiaoxiao was a little weird, and the tone of her voice seemed a little wrong, but he didn't doubt it.
After all, everyone is involved in the process of raising the ginseng seedlings and transplanting them into the field, including watering, fertilizing, and various operations in the field. So what's strange about these seedlings?
Even he couldn't explain it clearly, so how could he possibly suspect Jiang Xiaoxiao.
To put it bluntly, these seeds and seedlings are all ordinary ginseng seedlings.
But it is indeed surprising that it has grown to this extent now.
It only takes a few months to grow a ten-year-old ginseng. Even Song Moting himself couldn't explain why.
But it really looks like this.
Others also gathered around.
Looking at the ginseng in Jiang Xiaoxiao's hand, although it has not grown very thick yet, it is surprising enough that this ginseng has grown into five shapes.
Many people were so surprised that they almost jumped up. You know, they have dozens of acres of land here.
At the beginning, no one thought about what ginseng would grow into. Even if it was a one-year-old wild ginseng, as long as it could be sold at 50 cents per pound, they could make a lot of money.
I heard from the old people that the wild ginseng in this forest can produce about 2,000 kilograms per acre.
Fertilizer must keep up.
Everyone was originally thinking that if the purchase price could reach 50 cents, then their one acre of wild ginseng would be worth at least 1,000 yuan.
They have dozens of acres of forest land. If they sell it, it will be a huge profit, tens of thousands of dollars.
It’s not a small number for each person.
Otherwise, everyone won’t be able to grow ginseng.
The problem is that happiness comes too early now.
Who would have thought that it would have grown into this after just a few months? Judging from the state of this ginseng, although everyone doesn't understand the market very well, at least they know that they can't get it for 50 cents.
Everyone had a happy face.
"Brother Song, we have a good harvest this time, right? Can we collect ginseng now? Collect it and sell it directly to the purchasing station. A few days ago, some people who collect mountain products came to our forest farm. They also asked if we had a good harvest of ginseng. We should contact them immediately.
I didn’t expect that we would have a good harvest so soon. I thought we would have to wait until next year or the year after.”
Gu Dali was excited. No one's family was rich. Even though some of them were born in wealthy families, being born in a wealthy family did not mean that their family was necessarily good.
Who doesn’t lack money? Who would complain about having too much money?
The few work points they earned from the farm and the little wages they received were barely enough to fill their stomachs.
Especially the male educated youth who would want to smoke and drink from time to time. Those who came from the city all had those problems. They always had to use soap, shampoo, etc. to wash their hair and take a bath.
Forest workers generally don't use these things because they think they are very valuable.
So they consumed more energy from the educated youth.
He spends money lavishly.
Everyone’s hands are tightly packed.
At this moment, suddenly everyone is going to get rich. The excitement in my heart is indescribable.
He Aiguo was also excited. If she had this money and Jia Shu distributed it at the end of the year, she could immediately pay everyone back and she wouldn't have to worry so much anymore.
Jia Shu has been gone for almost ten days and hasn't come back yet. It's really worrying. There's not even a phone call or a letter from her.
Song Moting smiled and slapped Gu Dali.
"The harvesters haven't come in for the past two days, so we're still growing them in the fields. The bigger the ginseng grows, the more expensive it is. I think we should all keep our mouths shut. Otherwise, if we suddenly make so much money, people will be jealous. What if someone steals our ginseng in the middle of the night before we harvest it?
By then, everyone will be penniless.”
This is correct. When everyone heard it, they nodded eagerly. Several male educated youth have already started discussing that they will take turns to send one person to guard the woods at night.
The fruits of our hard work for several months cannot be destroyed in the hands of outsiders.
At this moment, everyone is looking at this forest as if it is a cornucopia, because it is full of money.
