"Points" refer to small bumps distributed irregularly on the whiskers, which are callus left by tiny absorbing roots. They are commonly called "pearl points" (also known as "pearl bumps"). The pearl points of wild ginseng are usually from relatively small roots.
The thick fibrous roots extend all the way to the ends of the fine fibrous roots. Sometimes they are sparse, but they are always very obvious, and they are still clearly visible after being processed into dry goods. (.)
Pearl spots can also be seen on larger or older fresh garden ginseng, but they are not as obvious as wild ginseng. They are rarely distributed on the thicker fibrous roots, and they are even less visible after being processed into dried products.
As for Han Kongque's batch of ginseng, there are not many pearl spots at all, which is definitely a characteristic of garden ginseng.
"I planted a batch of real wild ginseng, and the final identification result turned out to be garden ginseng. It's really ironic." Han Kongque looked at the patch of ginseng and smiled bitterly.
"At worst, I'll eat them all myself." Han Peacock said harshly.
Anyway, he knew that this batch of ginseng was real wild ginseng, and the medicinal power must be sufficient. If he ate it, he would not be deceiving himself.
However, he has already found a buyer for this batch of ginseng. If he has no goods to sell to others, he will not look good.
But he was not willing to sell it as a garden ginseng, but he even suspected that even if it was sold as a garden ginseng, it might not be easy to sell.
Generally, garden ginseng is only three to five years old. No matter what type of ginseng it is, if it is wild, it can boast that it is the best wild ginseng after it has been around for more than ten years.
But all the ginseng in Han Kongque are quite old. According to external calculations, they are all about ten years old.
This is the use of chaotic space that Han Kongque has only recently developed. Otherwise, it would be normal to produce ginseng that is hundreds of years old.
Logically speaking, this should be a good thing, but Han Peacock ignored an important issue.
Most wild ginseng grows in a very hard soil layer. Even if there is plenty of water, the soil is hard after all, so it will not grow fat!
The kind of super-old ginseng that is sixty or seventy years old is usually the size of two or three quail eggs, and its roots are very long.
Those engaged in drug research can judge the age of a ginseng based on its wrinkles, nutritional content, reed heads, etc.
Garden ginseng is grown in sandy soil or humus layer, and its growth is not hindered. Therefore, it grows very fat!
Any ginseng tree here is like two eggs placed together!
This batch of garden ginseng and Korean peacocks are planted quite a lot. In addition to this valley, there are also many densely planted in other places. The reason why so many are planted is naturally to form a new industrial chain, so that more people can be settled.
Many people.
Nowadays, more and more people are following Han Peacock for a living, especially his army. If Han Peacock wants military morale, he must take good care of his military family members, and ginseng is another profitable business that Han Peacock has thought of.
Anyone who owns something like ginseng is capital, and more importantly, there is no need to worry about selling it.
But now, big and white garden ginseng like his is not easy to sell.
Who can grow garden ginseng for more than ten years? With no way to harvest it for such a long time, it is impossible for ordinary people to do this kind of thing like planting trees for others to enjoy the shade.
And it grows so well, which means that the fertilization and care are excellent. Who would invest more than ten years in vain?
Even the ‘forest ginseng’ that is planted under the forest to simulate the wild environment, few have been planted for more than ten years!
If you don't sell it, it won't work. If you keep planting it, the flaws will only get bigger and bigger!
Han Peacock simply harvested the ginseng in this area. Since the land was soft, it was not troublesome to pick it. Each of these ginseng plants weighed half a catty, and they filled several large boxes together!
In the end, there were only 50 plants scattered in the valley, untouched in the ground. Han Peacock decided not to sell these, thinking that he could keep them as long as he could. If he planted new ones in the future, he would put them next to them.
This ginseng rhizome grows very luxuriantly, but I didn’t take it properly when I sampled it, so the quality is poor! It’s so plump that one doesn’t believe in its medicinal power at first glance.
Han Peacock pinched some ginseng whiskers. Regardless of the soil, he tasted it and found that it tasted pretty good.
After Han Peacock finished processing this batch of ginseng, Xiaoxiao and Xiaoxiao were almost done.
"Let's go home for lunch." Han Peacock shouted, and when the two children came back unwillingly, he took them away.
"Dad! This is the ginseng I picked for you." As soon as he went out, he saw Lao Han.
"Is this ginseng? Is this white radish?" Looking at the fat and white ginseng, Old Han said directly.
"My ginseng grows better, but this is really ginseng." Han Kongque said with a bitter smile.
"Where do you have ginseng? Han Ping happens to be a little weak. I heard that ginseng and eel soup is very good. The Honor family will be back today, and I will prepare some for them." Han's mother walked out of the kitchen and said.
"Let's make wolfberry, ginseng and eel soup! This is better. This kind of medicinal food is the best for children." Liu Xu also walked out of the kitchen and said.
"Ginseng can replenish qi and promote fluid production, and wolfberry has the effect of nourishing blood, improving eyesight, and nourishing the kidneys. When boiled with eel into a soup, the effect is even better. It can moisturize the stomach, aid digestion, cleanse the intestines and detoxify, and is helpful for the physical development of weak children.
, to prevent and treat minor diseases." Liuxu explained.
"Do you have any eels at home? How about I get some for you?" Han Peacock said.
"There are eels in the pond at your Uncle Li's house. After you have dinner, you go to catch two, and you can take the catkins and the others for a spin," Mother Han said.
"Fishing? We are going fishing." Han Feng ran over at this time and looked at Han Peacock and said.
Looking at his son, Han Kongque couldn't say no, so he could only nod in agreement.
"This is really ginseng!" Old Han still didn't believe Han Peacock. After tasting it, he found that it did taste like ginseng.
"Such a big ginseng? How did it grow?" Mother Han exclaimed.
"It's good when you're older. You can eat more when you're older. I heard that ginseng is good for making tea. I'll cut a piece of it and make it for me to drink later." Old Han now also knows that his son is very powerful, and he's not bad at this, so he also
Will enjoy it.
"Can we eat fresh ginseng? People use dried ginseng outside." Mother Han looked at the catkins and said.
Liu Xu smiled and said: "Fresh ginseng is better. One fresh ginseng is equivalent to three red ginseng."
Red ginseng is a cooked product of ginseng, and its processing method is through soaking, cleaning, sorting, steaming, drying, drying and other processes. During the steaming process of red ginseng, chemical reactions will occur due to heat treatment, and the ingredients
After drying, the red ginseng has a red color and a strong smell, so it is called red ginseng.
"As long as it works, that's good." Old Han said cheerfully.
"Actually, it's best to stew the ginseng. Cut the ginseng into 2m thin slices, put it into a porcelain bowl, fill it with water, seal the mouth of the bowl, place it in the pot and steam it for 4 to 5 hours before taking it." Liu Xu said.
Han Kongque said: "In terms of economy, it is best to stew this and take it. It is easy to digest, but you can also chew it! Take 2 to 3 slices of ginseng, put it in your mouth and chew it carefully. It will stimulate body fluids and refresh you. It is sweet and delicious. I think
This is the easiest way to take it.”
"You two, don't argue. Grind the powder, make tea, or make wine. Anyway, there are so many ginsengs, so we will try each one." Han Mu said.
"It's too troublesome to grind the ginseng into powder and swallow it. You also have to grind the ginseng into fine powder." Old Han said.
"This is a troublesome point, and you need to pay attention to the dosage. If you grind it into powder and swallow it every day, the dosage depends on your personal constitution, usually 1 to 1.5 grams each time." Liu Xu said.
"Making tea is easy. Just cut the ginseng into thin slices, put it in a cup, brew it with boiling water, cover it for 5 minutes and then drink it." Old Han muttered and walked into the living room.
Han Kongque said: "The oldest thing is to soak it in wine. Cut the whole ginseng into thin slices and put it in a bottle. Soak it in 50 to 60 degree white wine. Take it carefully every day. If you add some other things, it will be better.
alright."
"Then just make a little bit of it all. It just so happens that you still have a long time there, so it's not a waste to soak the ginseng in the wine." Liu Xu rolled her eyes at Han Kongque and said.
After everyone had lunch, Han Kongque led Xiaoxiao and Han Feng to Li Xiaoyi's house. His family also built a farmyard with an eel pond for guests to fish and play. The eel they caught was just right.
Serve to guests.
Eels are one of the oldest creatures in the world and a very mysterious animal on earth. With the development of science and technology, there is still very little understanding of eels.
Han Peacock's laboratory on Devil's Island has a dedicated team to study eels, so Devil's Island produces a lot of all kinds of eels, so it is not difficult to supply enough eels for Li Xiaoyi's family.
Most of these eels are caught, and only a few are farmed, because eel farming is very difficult.
There are a total of 18 categories of eels. No matter which category, several characteristics are the same: they are ferocious, carnivorous, and they are migratory.
However, they lay eggs in the deep sea, and then the young eels drift along the ocean currents to where some rivers flow into the sea, and then swim to live in fresh water. Therefore, it is not difficult to raise them, but it is difficult to breed and cultivate them.
Since they are all shipped from other places, you can catch any kind of eels here.
Eels can be said to be a rather strange species, and the most unusual thing about eels is that they can 'change'.
When they find that there is plenty of food and can reproduce in large numbers, the eels will turn into females; when they find that there is too little food to reproduce, they will turn into males.
Really, the world is so big, and there are all kinds of abnormal creatures!
Because eels only lay eggs in the deep sea, people cannot breed eels artificially. It is difficult to obtain fry, and it is also very troublesome to raise them artificially to grow up.
So no matter what kind of eel, the price is not cheap.
The way to catch eels is rather strange. Unless they are ridiculously large eels, you cannot catch them with a hook, because they eat like an "alien", opening their mouths to bite the prey, and then popping it out of their throats.
Hook, clamp the prey and pull it into the belly...
It wasn’t until the development of technology a few years ago that people realized this. Before that, people didn’t know how eels eat! (To be continued.)
