Cai Tongguang shook his head and said,"
"Eating is a problem now. Why would I care about so many things? Let them grow slowly. In any case, ginseng could not be grown in a short period of time.
It was not like he was growing vegetables, just like the old man said. This thing was not considered ginseng until it was more than five years old. Even if a five-year-old ginseng was like grass, it did not have much value.”
Qin Yi thought about it and felt that this sentence made sense. A few years of ginseng would not be effective.
Only wild ginsengs that were more than 10 years old could truly match the name of a treasure.
But unfortunately, people were not full now, and eating ginseng was useless. Therefore, they were basically sold at a low price. Nowadays, people did not realize the value of ginseng. It was like not recognizing the preciousness of an old object.
He had originally wanted to suggest that the villagers use that piece of land to grow ginseng. If they protected it, they would not need to artificially fatten it up. They would just let it grow in the mountains. After 20 to 30 years, the value of the ginseng would be great.
But after thinking about it, he decided not to.
People would only think about other things when they were full and had no worries.
Soon, under Cai Tongguang's lead, they arrived in front of an old house.
At this time, Cai Tongguang said,
"This is the only old Chinese doctor in the village. His name is Lin Tianen. He was 49 years old when he fled to our place with his wife. Although he had retired and was 97 years old, he was still very healthy. He drank a little wine every day and looked very good.
He also often helped the villagers to see a doctor. He was quite famous in the nearby villages. I won't disturb you anymore. Go talk to him. If I go in, this old man will probably quarrel with me.”
Qin Yi nodded. After thanking him, he watched Cai Tongguang leave.
However, just as he was about to knock, the door was opened from the inside.
An old man with white hair, a long beard, and white eyebrows walked out. His skin was wrinkled, but his face was rosy. He walked like a dragon and a tiger.
"Where's Cai? I heard you badmouthing me! Where did he go?"
The old man's voice was full of energy and loud. Qin Yi had no choice but to take a few more glances.
It was impossible to tell that this old man was already in his nineties. Moreover, from the looks of it, it would not be a problem for him to live for another ten or twenty years.
However, hearing him call Cai Tongguang a kid was also fun. In terms of age, he was really a kid. But in his heart, he probably didn't have a chance to buy the wine.
At his age, he was alone. What had he not seen?
"Old Master Lin. Hello." Qin Yi bowed slightly to the old man.
"And you are?" The old man looked at Qin Yi.”
Qin Yi smiled and nodded.""Yes, I am. I came specially to visit you."
Lin Tianen sized Qin Yi up and shook his head slightly."
"Young man, you're not sick either. You're in good spirits. You're not here to see a doctor. What's the matter?"
Qin Yi wasn't surprised that Lin Tianen could tell his physical condition at a glance. Looking, listening, asking, and feeling were also impressive skills for experienced Chinese medicine students.
"Old Master Lin, I'm from another town. I heard that you have tiger bone wine here." I want to buy some for my grandfather."
"I'm sorry, young man. I don't sell my wine to outsiders." Lin Tianen rejected him directly.
"Then can I take a look?"
Qin Yi was mentally prepared, so he was naturally not disappointed. Nowadays, it was not easy to get such a real thing.
"That's possible." This time, Lin Tianen didn't refuse.
Qin Yi followed behind Lin Tianen.
His house was different from the others in the village.
Although it was a mud wall that had long become bumpy, there was a different scenery inside.
The courtyard was very big, and there were many plants that were unknown whether they were flowers or herbs. There was also a shelf. The shelves were already filled with grapes.
The ground was made of gravel, unlike the mud floor in his house.
It was obvious that this old man knew how to enjoy life.
"Old Master, are these all medicinal herbs?”Qin Yi asked.
"No." Lin Tianen shook his head slightly. It doesn't matter to me whether I grow medicinal herbs or not. Come in."
At this moment, Lin Tianen led Qin Yi into a side room. Once he entered, Qin Yi looked at the things and medicine cabinet inside, as well as the thick smell of Chinese medicine that assaulted his nose. He could not help but feel quite comfortable.
"This is my medicine room." Lin Tianen said and then said,"There, that's what you wanted to see."
As he spoke, the old man pointed to a half-meter-tall clay jar beside the medicine cabinet.
"What? So many?" Qin Yi was slightly stunned. This half-meter-tall jar could probably hold more than a hundred catties of wine.
Lin Tianen smiled." There's not much left. I've drunk almost all of it."”
No wonder Qin Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However, that was also true. Cai Tongguang said that this jar of wine had been soaked for more than ten years. There was still a little left. He probably drank it sparingly.
"Old Master, why don't you sell this jar of wine to me?" Qin Yi asked. Look, you've been drinking for so many years. His body was strong and healthy. It would not be a problem for him to live for another ten or twenty years.”
"Young man, don't think too much. I'm not selling this. Everyone in the village wants it, but I won't give it to them.”Lin Tianen said with a smile.
Lin Tianen had an easy-going personality, but he was only arrogant towards Cai Tongguang. The main reason was that this guy was too infuriating.
"Old Master, as long as you're willing to sell it, you can exchange it for anything." Qin Yi still refused to give up.”
"You really want it?" When Lin Tianen heard this and saw that Qin Yi was not giving up, he could not help but ask,""Anything?"
"As long as you can give me this jar of wine, I'll do anything.”Qin Yi nodded.
"That's not impossible." Lin Tianen suddenly smiled. He had almost finished this jar of wine. Even if there was more, it was only a few catties.
After thinking for a while, he said,"Since you want it, there's no problem." I'll tell you the truth and not lie to you. After clearing away those things, there were probably about three to four pounds left in this jar of wine.
However, the things inside could still be soaked for a second time. Adding 50 pounds of 42-degree white wine, then steaming them over water, boiling them, cooling them, sealing them, and burying them underground for a month, the effect would not be as good as the first time. But it was still pretty good.
Since you want it, I can give it to you. However, at my age, I basically don't lack anything. What can you find for me?"
When Qin Yi heard this, he was also excited. He didn't expect it to work. He thought for a moment and said,
"Old Master, you've eaten more salt than I've eaten. I don't know what you want either. Why don't you tell me?”
But Lin Tianen shook his head.”
When Qin Yi saw this, he didn't say much and only said,""Then can I walk around here and take a look?”
"Other than the room, anything else is fine." Lin Tianen didn't refuse.
Hence, Qin Yi went straight to the living room.
