Qin Yi smiled and asked,""Let me ask, do you often run around the mountains?”
Cai Chengdong nodded.
"Then do you know the herbs? Chinese Knotweed, Lingzhi or something." Qin Yi asked.
"There are a lot of these things. What's wrong?" Cai Chengdong was puzzled.
"A lot?" "Are you sure?" Qin Yi was surprised.”
Cai Chengdong nodded seriously. I also have a few ginseng at home, but they're not worth much. No one wants to sell it here."
Qin Yi was a little confused when he heard this.
When did ginseng become a common commodity? The supply and marketing cooperative didn't want this good thing? What was going on? Moreover, did this place really have ginseng?
"Big brother, do you want this? There were many people in the village. However, the villagers used it to make wine. No one wants it even if we sell it." Cai Chengdong asked carefully.
"Where are you from?" Qin Yi asked.”
"I'm from this county. Over there. It's a little far."
Cai Chengdong pointed at the two o'clock direction.
Qin Yi looked in that direction, but he couldn't see anything. He only knew that there was a mountain in the distance.
It seemed like they were near the mountain.
"Can you take me to your village later? I want to buy some."
In this day and age, Chinese medicine basically came from the mountains. Artificial cultivation? Yes, but at least in the countryside, they were overthinking things. He didn't even have enough to eat, so he planted medicinal herbs?
"Sure," Cai Chengdong smiled. His dry lips had also recovered a lot.
Qin Yi looked at the two eggs in his hands. They were not bad.
He had eaten real pheasant eggs when he was young, but not many. The egg yolk that was knocked out was very red.
It was said that this kind of egg was very nutritious for women who were in confinement.
However, it was difficult to find the real one in the future.
The goods were still being unloaded, and Qin Yi kept asking Cai Chengdong about their village.
Soon, Jiang Peng slowly walked back while smoking. When she saw Qin Yi chatting happily with a child, she was shocked.
Seeing that Jiang Peng had returned, Qin Yi smiled and said to Cai Chengdong,""Come, call Brother Jiang."
"Brother Jiang."
Cai Chengdong was not a shy person. He could feel that Qin Yi treated him very well. Otherwise, she wouldn't have given him such a delicious bottle of water the moment they met. He even gave him a good price.
"Yes." Jiang Peng nodded slightly. "What happened?"
Qin Yi smiled and said,"I found a way to make money." Brother Jiang, do you want another serving?"
Hearing the word 'money', Jiang Peng's eyes lit up. He stopped smoking and threw the cigarette on the ground. He quickly said,"What's going on?"
"It's him." Qin Yi looked at Cai Chengdong. I asked around, and it seems that their village has a lot of Chinese medicinal herbs. Perhaps we can buy some.”
"Then what are we waiting for? I…Why haven't I finished unloading it yet?”Jiang Peng looked inside, but he was still unloading the goods.
"There's no hurry. It was almost noon, and there were only four people unloading the goods today. Slowly. Let's go eat first." Qin Yi said.
Jiang Peng nodded.
He had earned a few hundred yuan from Qin Yi in the past two days. When he heard that he was going to make money again, he was naturally anxious.
When they arrived at the state-owned restaurant, Qin Yi paid and Jiang Peng issued the tickets. It was Cai Chengdong's first time eating such delicious food, so he ate a little cautiously. Qin Yi also told him to eat more.
After a full meal, they returned to the supply and marketing cooperative and unloaded most of the things.
Seven or eight minutes later, they were all unloaded. Jiang Peng hurriedly signed the documents and drove away.
Cai Chengdong sat in Qin Yi's car and was very excited.
He didn't dare to move around and just looked around curiously. At the same time, he pointed at the road.
Jiang Peng followed behind.
Two trucks drove past on the road, naturally attracting the attention of many people. There were very few cars here, and it was in the county town.
The distance was only relative in terms of walking distance. It would take more than twenty minutes to travel by foot.
It wasn't too far by car.
However, when they reached the place, they realized that the road was not easy to walk on.
They had no choice but to back out of the road leading to the village after driving for less than twenty meters. The car couldn't enter.
At the village entrance, after getting out of the car, Qin Yi said to Jiang Peng,"
"Brother Jiang, why don't you stay here and keep an eye on them? I'll follow them in and take a look.”
Jiang Peng looked around and felt that it should be fine, so he nodded."Alright, be careful."
Therefore, under Cai Chengdong's lead, Qin Yi took out a backpack from the car and walked to the village.
Along the way, Qin Yi also realized that although the road in the village was small, it was not that cars could not enter. However, once his carriage entered, the people who were driving the carriage or pushing the wheelbarrow could not come out. Or maybe the people we came in can't go in either.
To put it bluntly, if the car entered, it would become a road hog.
About seven or eight minutes later, under Cai Chengdong's lead, Qin Yi was sweating from the heat and arrived at the door of a house that could almost be called a bare house.
This was Cai Chengdong's home.
There were no adobe walls. Instead, there was a courtyard surrounded by a fence. It was a thatched house with two longan trees growing at the door. A scrawny yellow dog was lying under the tree.
When the young paparazzo saw Cai Chengdong, it immediately stood up and stuck out its tongue. It wagged its tail happily and ran over.
"Big Yellow, don't scream. Did Mother come back?" Cai Chengdong hurriedly ran over. He stroked its head and asked in a low voice.
"Woof woof!" Rhubarb barked twice.
Qin Yi smiled when he heard Cai Chengdong's words. So this kid had sneaked out.
"It's good that Ah Ma hasn't returned yet. Don't scream, he's a good person." Cai Chengdong pointed at Qin Yi.
"Big brother, come in with me. I'll show you.”Cai Chengdong stood up and walked inside.
"Okay." Qin Yi didn't refuse.
Rhubarb kept sniffing Qin Yi's feet from behind and did not bark.
The lighting in the room wasn't very good, but it was very cool. In this hot weather, this was a very good place to escape the heat.
Houses in the countryside with tiled roofs were often cooler than houses made of cement. The main problem was heat dissipation.
This kind of thatched roof was also cool. However, it was easy to breed insects.
"Big brother, this is the ginseng my father left behind. Mother kept it."
At this moment, Cai Chengdong took out a small cloth bag that was more than 30 centimeters long and wrapped in oilcloth and rope from the inner room.
Qin Yi nodded. Cai Chengdong had already told him about his family's situation on the way. Her father had gone up the mountain to hunt and was bitten by a snake. He was gone. Therefore, only the mother and son could rely on each other.
Cai Chengdong opened the cloth bags one by one. Soon, three dried ginsengs that were two fingers wide and more than 20 centimeters long appeared.
Looking at the three dried ginsengs, Qin Yi began to examine them one by one.
Although he had not studied this thing, he still had some understanding of it. After opening the cloth bag, the rich smell of ginseng assailed his nostrils. He knew that it was not fake.
At the same time, he was surprised that the three ginsengs were only about 20 centimeters long and their roots were well preserved. At the same time, the iron threads on the ginseng's body were also extremely dense.
This meant that these three ginsengs had been growing for quite some time.
"Are you sure you can sell it?" Qin Yi asked.
Cai Chengdong hesitated and asked,""Big brother, how much can this ginseng be sold for?”
Qin Yi thought about it and said,"
"How about this, Qin Yi asked. Bring me to your mother. Let me tell your mother, whether you sell it or not, your mother has the final say. Is that alright?"
Cai Chengdong nodded repeatedly.
Hence, he closed the door and left with Qin Yi. Rhubarb, who was at the door, wanted to follow him but was stopped by Cai Chengdong.
