Chapter 53 Qinyuan Spring. Snow
... "By the way! Brother Zhang, is that wild ginseng that has been more than 900 years old still alive now?" Tang Lei suddenly asked.
"Of course I live! It's growing in the soil on this mountain now, but my father knows the only one where the ginseng grows."
"No wonder my father looked like a baby, but he didn't expect that he was really a baby!" Zhang Dehai quipped with a smile.
Tang Lei shook his head with a smile.
...
After walking for a while, Zhang Dehai took Tang Lei and Zhao Zhengang and others to the place where he discovered wild ginseng.
The wild ginseng plant that Zhang Dehai discovered has been engaging in almost 80 years. It was discovered by Zhang Dehai two years ago. At that time, Zhang Dehai was happy about it for a long time!
Compared to the place where Zhang Dechao discovered wild ginseng, his place is closer to Qianshantun, so Zhang Dehai planned to dig out the wild ginseng here first, and then go to the place where Zhang Dechao discovered wild ginseng so that both ends would not run away.
Zhang Dehai walked under a silver fir tree, squatted down, and began to slowly pierce the thick snow on the ground, and the green leaves of wild ginseng hidden inside were also revealed!
Tang Lei looked at Zhang Dehai's operation intently. This was the first time he had seen the wild ginseng that was really buried in the soil!
Tang Lei Xinqi walked up and watched Zhang Dehai holding a small shovel and carefully digging this wild ginseng!
Since it is winter now, the snow in Changbai Mountain is very thick and the soil has become frozen, so it is very difficult to dig. Moreover, most of the ginseng's bodies are in the soil and the roots are very thin. If you are not careful, it will destroy the quality of ginseng, so you must be very careful.
After looking at it for a while, Tang Lei was amazed in his heart. I have to say that digging ginseng is indeed a skillful job!
"In fact, it is not suitable for digging ginseng now, because ginseng will run smoothly in winter and its quality will be slightly worse." Zhao Zhengang explained from the side.
"Is that right? But it doesn't matter. When I left, I brought some soil from Changbai Mountain to wrap the ginseng!" Tang Lei said without any attention.
"Brother Tang, they can't finish digging it up in the first half. We're fine anyway. I'll take you to a great place to see the scenery!" Zhao Zhengang suggested with a smile.
"Okay, Brother Zhao really understands me!" Tang Lei laughed.
...
After a while, Zhao Zhengang took Tang Lei to a mountain with few trees.
"Brother Tang, this mountain has a wide view. Looking close, you can see the ridge of Changbai Mountain. Looking far away, the scenery is great. Brother, how is the place I chose?" Zhao Zhengang asked Tang Lei with a smile.
Tang Lei did not answer Zhao Zhengang's words because he was now demented, looking at the endless silver snow field ahead, like a dream!
In this world decorated with snow, the world is the same color, and only silver white can be seen. Tang Lei feels like he has come to a crystal clear fairy tale world!
The heart is peaceful and excited!
"It's so beautiful! I really envy Northeastern people who can see such beautiful scenery in winter!" Tang Lei sighed!
"Hahahaha! People from Northeast China don't think so!" Zhao Zhengang laughed.
Tang Lei looked at the beautiful scenery of the snow field in front of him with a smile, and couldn't help but start to chant loudly:
The scenery of the north is filled with ice for thousands of miles and snow for thousands of miles.
Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, there are only the vastness; the river is rising and falling, and the river suddenly loses surging.
The silver snake dances in the mountains, and the wax figures are galloping, trying to compete with the heavens.
On sunny days, I look at the red dress and it is very charming.
The country is so beautiful that countless heroes are competing for the competition.
The Qin Emperor and Han Emperor were slightly inferior to the literary talent; the Tang Emperor and Song ancestors were slightly inferior to the charm.
Genghis Khan, a genius of a generation, only knew how to bending a bow and shooting eagles.
All of them have gone, and there are several romantic figures, and I still look at the present day.
"This Chairman's poem is really compatible with this feeling!" Tang Lei smiled and sighed with emotion after chanting for a long time.
"Brother Tang is a college student, it's different! He is worthy of being a talented student in the Chinese department!"
"Like us rough people, we can only say: It's so fucking beauty!" Zhao Zhengang praised Tang Lei with a smile!
"Brother Zhao is also an elegant person, otherwise how could he discover this place?" Tang Lei shook his head and said modestly.
"Let's go, after seeing the beautiful scenery, it's time to do serious business!" Zhao Zhengang laughed after hearing this, patted Tang Lei's shoulder, and said with a smile.
Tang Lei was somewhat impressed by the beautiful scenery here, but he still turned around and followed Zhao Zhengang and returned to the place where Zhang Dehai was digging ginseng.
"Come on, Brother Tang, see how this wild ginseng is like. You can look good! When I dug it, I didn't hurt a ginseng beard! And it seems that it has been around 78 years! Hahaha..." Zhang Dehai gave the wild ginseng to Tang Lei and said with a laugh.
"Brother Zhang, how do you think about the age of this ginseng?" Tang Lei asked curiously at the wild mountain ginseng in his hand.
...
One pm.
When Zhang Dechao led Tang Lei and the other two to the place where he discovered wild ginseng, it was already one o'clock in the afternoon.
Tang Lei and his group set off since 7 o'clock in the morning!
Even if it wasn't for the half hour when Zhang Dehai dug ginseng, he had been away for almost four or five hours! It can be seen that the ginseng land that Zhang Dechao discovered grew in such a rare deep mountain.
After arriving at the place, Tang Lei had nothing to do, so Tang Lei could only watch Zhang Dehai and the others dig ginseng.
Seeing that he had nothing to do, Tang Lei made an excuse and left Zhang Dehai and the other two with excuses.
It was not until he left Zhang Dehai and the others that Tang Lei stopped and looked around carefully. After asking the Tinder Number to open the "White Hole" storage space, took out the tools, and began to shovel soil into the "White Hole" storage space of the Tinder Number.
Finally, he told Yiyi to be wary of her surroundings in case Zhang Dehai and the others saw it.
The "White Hole" storage space of the Fire Number is an absolutely vacuum space, and no life can survive for a long time, because there is no air necessary for carbon-based living organisms to survive in the "White Hole" storage space.
Although ginseng does not require oxygen, it needs nutrition, Tang Lei can only make this decision, hoping to dig some native soil in Changbai Mountain and put it in the "white hole" storage space of the fire number, and use this soil to try to maintain the activity of ginseng so that these ginseng will not die before Tang Lei returns!
Almost half an hour later, Tang Lei had dug about one cubic meter of black soil in Changbai Mountain and put it into the "white hole" storage space of the Fire Number.
Tang Lei felt that it should be almost enough, so he put the digging tool back into the "white hole" storage space and returned to the wild mountain ginseng land that Zhang Dechao discovered.
When Tang Lei returned to the ginseng field, Zhang Dehai and his team's work of digging ginseng only reached one-third.
"Brother Tang, we won't dig those who are too young. It's not easy to find such a wild ginseng field. You have to keep some seeds and you can't dig them out!" Zhang Dehai smiled and explained with a smile.
"Brother Zhang, you can just make a decision, I don't care! It's really useless for those who are too young to participate!" Tang Lei replied with a smile.
"Okay, Xiaochao, Lao Zhao, we won't dig ginseng for less than ten years, we will only dig ginseng for more than ten years!" After hearing Tang Lei's answer, Zhang Dehai instructed Zhao Zhengang and Zhang Dechao.
But in this way, there are actually only a dozen wild ginseng trees that can be dug in this ginseng field. It is estimated that all of them should be dug before four o'clock in the afternoon.
Tang Lei was so idle that he wanted to join the ranks of digging and was preparing to learn from Zhang Dehai to collect ginseng in a good manner, but Zhang Dehai stopped him with a smile!
The reason is that novices are picking and easily breaking the quality of ginseng. This wild ginseng plant is not cheap. Tang Lei ruined one, but Zhang Dehai felt very distressed!
Tang Lei, who was stopped by Zhang Dehai from trying to dig, was not angry, so he simply squatted beside Zhang Dehai, watching his skillful digging skills while chatting in a low voice.
Zhang Dehai needed to concentrate on finding the ginseng of wild ginseng, so he could only chat with Tang Lei in a mess, and sometimes he simply said directly: "Brother, I'm busy, you can play with your own!"
Tang Lei could only shake his head and smile bitterly.
The time of joy is always short, but the time of boredom is long.
It was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhang Dehai and his friends finally dug all the wild ginseng that had been more than ten years old, and found some soil-wrapped ginseng roots, and then prepared to go down the mountain.
"Xiao Chao, you guys are lucky and you actually found such a big wild mountain ginseng land!" Zhang Dehai laughed and scolded his brothers on the way back.
...
When Tang Lei and the others returned, the sky was completely dark, but because there was snow everywhere, the road surface could still be seen clearly.
After dinner at Zhang Dehai's house, the group of four began to count today's harvest.
"Xiao Chao, there are 2 plants on your side that are over 60 years old. These two plants are counted as 600 for you!"
"4 plants have been more than 30 years old, then 6 plants have been more than 20 years old, and 5 plants have been about 15 years old. These are counted to you in total 1,300!"
"Brother Tang is here too. I don't make a penny of your money. It's 1,900 in total. What do you think?" Zhang Dehai said with a smile at his brother.
"Okay! Brother, please say as much as you want!" Zhang Dechao agreed with a smile.
"You kid can have a good New Year this year!" Zhang Dehai said with a smile.
"Come to make up an integer, 2,000! Thank you for your hard work today, I ran in the mountains for a day!" Tang Lei said as he counted two thousand yuan and gave it to Zhang Dechao with a smile.
Zhang Dechao looked at Zhang Dehai, wondering if he should take the money from Tang Lei.
"Brother Tang is generous, just take it!" Zhao Zhengang said with a smile.
"Thank you, Boss Tang!"
"Brother Hai, Brother Gang, Boss Tang, then I'll go back first!" Zhang Dechao bowed to Tang Lei and said with a smile.
"Let's go back!" Zhang Dehai waved.
After Zhang Dechao left, Tang Lei took out 200 yuan from his bag and stuffed it to Zhao Zhengang with a smile and said, "Brother Zhao, I have been busy in the mountains for a day today and took me to see the scenery. This is what I am the younger brother, thank you!"
