Chapter 1107, is this a carrot?

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    "Oh~"

    Chen Feng slowly stood up and touched his butt. It was nothing. The virgin forest here had a thick and fertile humus layer, and the soil was very fertile and thick. It would be nothing if he fell down.

    He picked up his right hand and was about to clap his hands, but Chen Feng's eyes suddenly locked on the thing he was holding in his right hand.

    This is a small radish that looks a bit like a radish, not nearly as big as a radish, but about the thickness of two thumbs, with many whiskers on it and dirt attached to it.

    There is a branch at the top, with several leaves, and a small red seed-like fruit at the top.

    ¡°There are actually wild radishes in Quebec?¡±

    Chen Feng looked at the thing in his hand. It looked like a radish, but he always felt that it didn't look like a radish.

    "The smallest radish is bigger than you, and the radish leaves are not right for this. The radish will not bloom and bear fruit."

    "What on earth is this?"

    Chen Feng couldn't help but think, and then he carried this 'carrot' and walked towards the resting place of the expedition team.

    "Brother Chen~"

    "Brother Chen, are you okay?"

    At this time, several team members heard the sound that Chen Feng made when he fell just now, and hurriedly came over to find him.

    "It's okay, I just fell a little."

    "Which of you knows this thing?"

    When Chen Feng saw his team members, he raised the things in his hands and asked.

    ¡°Brother Chen, where did you get the radish?¡±

    ¡°This radish is too small, it¡¯s not even big enough for my chopsticks.¡±

    Peng Chao looked at the things in Chen Feng¡¯s hands, smiled and said.

    "I didn't expect that there are wild radishes here. I can look for them again and put them in the pot to stew the meat. It will definitely taste good."

    Chen Qi also nodded.

    "I just grabbed it and pulled it out when I fell down."

    Chen Feng smiled and pointed to the place where he had just fallen. He looked around carefully and found several plants that were the same as those in Chen Feng's hand.

    Someone came over immediately, pulled up several of them one by one, and shook off the soil on the roots. A closer look revealed that they were the kind of radish in Chen Feng's hand.

    "This doesn't seem to be a carrot~"

    "It's ginseng!"

    At this time, someone picked up one and looked at it carefully, thought about it and said.

    "Ginseng?"

    When Chen Feng and others heard this, they all looked over.

    "If I remember correctly, this should be ginseng."

    "Ginseng is a very expensive medicinal material. Generally, only the really wealthy families can afford it."

    "I remember when I was in Daming, I went to see a doctor when I was sick, and I saw a landlord, Lao Cai, going to the store to buy ginseng."

    "At that time, I saw the doctor take out a ginseng, put it in a good wooden box, and there was a red cloth inside. It looked similar to this thing, like a radish, with many roots."

    "However, the ginseng I saw at that time was not as big as ours. It was only less than half as thick, but it was very expensive. I remember that one ginseng cost five taels of silver at the time."

    The man thought for a while and said.

    "Fifty taels of silver?"

    When Chen Feng and others heard this, they couldn't help but widen their eyes slightly, and then looked carefully at the radish in their hands.

    "Can this thing be worth five taels of silver?"

    Chen Feng is a little unbelievable.

    ¡°If it¡¯s ginseng, it must be very valuable, because ginseng is a precious Chinese medicinal material.¡±

    ¡°At that time, I heard the doctor say that although our Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and rich resources, ginseng is only found in Liaodong and North Korea, and no ginseng is produced in other places.¡±

    "This is a very tonic medicinal material. Landlords, rich people, government officials and the like often eat this ginseng to replenish their bodies. The price is not cheap."

    The man thought about it carefully and added again.

    "I'll wipe~"

    "Here, if this thing is worth five taels of silver, wouldn't we be rich?"

    Peng Chao looked at the things in his hands, thought about it and said.

    "It's too early to say~"

    ¡°First we have to determine whether this is ginseng, and secondly we have to see how much ginseng is in this area. If the quantity is too small, we won¡¯t be able to make much money.¡±

    &nbThe only difference is that the ginseng in the medical clinic does not have the branches, leaves and red fruits.  "

    ¡°The radish below looks exactly the same as the one below, so it¡¯s definitely correct.¡±

    "Hu Laoer, everyone is finally out for a trip, but they are all counting on these carrots to turn around. Don't make a mistake."

    "That's right~"

    Chen Feng pondered slightly as he listened to the team members' words.

    To be honest, he has no confidence in his heart now.

    There are so many of these things here, they can be seen everywhere, and they are not a rare thing. It seems a bit unrealistic to associate it with ginseng, and to sell it for five taels of silver per plant.

    He still understands the principle of rare things being valuable.

    Although I have never eaten ginseng, the quantity of valuable things should be small.

    With more than twenty people in my expedition team, I collected tens of thousands of plants in one day. It doesn¡¯t look like a rare thing in any case, and this thing is really common here.

    "Okay, let's stop arguing~"

    "Everyone, please eat and drink quickly and go to bed."

    "Regardless of whether this thing is worth anything, we will mine it for two more days tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, and bring more back with us. We will set off back to the north the day after tomorrow."

    "If this thing is valuable, then we will make a lot of money on this trip, and we can make a lot of money from this thing in the future."

    "If this thing is not valuable, we have just wasted a few more days, and there is nothing more to say."

    ¡°Those who should sleep should go to sleep, and those who should be on duty should go on duty.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
