Hello 1983

Soon someone yelled again, there were animals scurrying around in the tree, at first they thought it was a squirrel, but after a closer look, it was indeed a squirrel, but it was chasing a sable.

"In the past two years, there seem to be more and more sables in the forest."

Ding Xiaomao was also in this team, looking at the sable on the tree, he was quite moved. The price of a mink fur is still very attractive.

Ding Laohei next to him knocked his companion on the head: "Then don't play tricks, you have to protect it, understand?"

A pinch of hair kept nodding: "Understood, I'm thinking about getting a fur collar for my wife."

"Then tell me, should I make the sable jump around the tree, or wrap it around your daughter-in-law's neck?"

"Qingshan has said it all, protecting the environment in the mountains is the best savings!"

Ding Laohei admits to death, anyway, he has always believed in Liu Qingshan's words.

Ding Xiaomao chuckled: "If it were my daughter-in-law, I would be happy with the whole hair collar, but with my temper, I can get used to her."

Dahuo burst into laughter, everyone knew that Ding Xiaomao was a well-known beloved daughter-in-law, of course this was bragging.

Liu Qingshan is well aware of this point, after several decades, there will be only forests left in the forest, without birds and beasts, it will be a dead forest.

A middle-aged woman in the team interjected, "Xiao Mao, I'll tell your wife when I get home."

"No, aunt, you are my own aunt." Ding Xiaomao panicked and begged for mercy.

Everyone was laughing and laughing, and they were not lonely along the way. They quickly bypassed the hot spring and entered the depths of the valley.

The ecological environment inside the valley is very different from the outside. It is darker and more humid here, and because there are few people, it retains the most natural state.

"This can't be a mallet, can it?" Ding Xiaomao rubbed his eyes vigorously, and then yelled: "Stick!"

This is also the rule in the mountains. When you find old ginseng, you must roar and stop the stick.

"Don't make a fuss, keep going." Liu Qingshan yelled at him.

"No, isn't this mallet digging?"

Where can Ding Xiaomao move his legs? From the leaves of the old mountain ginseng, it can be seen that this is already a sixth-grade leaf, and it can be lifted out.

According to the rules in the mountains, you don't need to dig up any second-grade and third-grade leaves, but you must not be polite to fifth-rank leaves and sixth-rank leaves.

"Dig it later when you need it, and keep it in the forest to save money." Of course Liu Qingshan knows that wild ginseng will become more valuable in the future.

But he also noticed that there was a trace of greed in everyone's eyes, which is human nature.

So he laughed and said, "Don't think about wild ginseng, this is where we contracted from Jiapigou."

When everyone heard this, they came to their senses. It's just that some people were still thinking about crooked ways in their hearts.

Liu Qingshan continued: "Today, we are led by my master, so we can come here smoothly. If you came here by yourself, you would have died countless times."

Naturally people didn't believe it, the journey was smooth and smooth, the worst thing was seeing a few sables, those things didn't dare to attack people.

"Master, don't call Shan." Liu Qingshan yelled at the dumb grandfather in front of the line.

The dumb grandfather's ah ah sound also stopped, and the forest suddenly became much quieter.

After walking a few hundred meters further, everyone suddenly felt a little nervous. They are all old mountain hunters, and their ability to perceive danger is of course far beyond ordinary people.

"Wolf!" Someone yelled, and everyone was shocked, and they all clenched the belongings in their hands, such as poles and hooks with wooden handles.

Some people raised their backpacks and stood in front of them.

In the woods, a dozen or so wild wolves flashed past, staring at the crowd unkindly.

That is to say, there were a large number of people, so the wolves did not attack. If there were a small team of several people, the wolves might have already pounced on them.

"Aah!"

When the dumb grandpa yelled, the wolves immediately disappeared into the jungle without a sound, as if they had never appeared before.

Only then did everyone feel that their tense bodies relaxed a lot. The pressure brought by the wolves is the greatest, even more severe than any tiger or leopard.

"You know it this time." Before Liu Qingshan could say anything, Da Zhang Luo yelled:

Zhang Ganzi is also afraid that the world will not be chaotic, so he took the opportunity to fan the flames:

"Tell you, there are still mother tigers and big brown bears here. There is no dumb uncle to lead the way. No one is used to those wild animals. Don't wait until then, and the family members want to collect your corpse, but they can't find the bones!"

This really frightened everyone, everyone quietly followed the large army, and never dared to think of other ideas.

Chapter 733 Please don't pretend to be poor

In the depths of the hot spring valley, everyone finally stopped, and there was a yew forest in front of them.

Most of them are big trees that need to be hugged by two or three people. The branches and leaves are flourishing and scattered. They seem to be chaotic, but in fact they are most in line with the natural state of plant growth.

Even these old mountain runners were deeply shocked, because everyone knows the value of yew, and in recent years, these villages have planted a lot of yews one after another.

However, it takes time for small saplings to mature, and the yew grows extremely slowly. How can this thousand-year-old tree bring more visual impact to people?

Now everyone is more convinced of Liu Qingshan's words: protecting the mountains and forests is really equivalent to saving money.

Liu Qingshan's gaze fell more on the trees, because there were many yew saplings growing one or two meters high on the ground.

These saplings have also grown for ten to 20 years, but under the cover of big trees, small saplings are doomed to fail to grow. This is the law of trees.

But if transplanted, these saplings would be a huge fortune.

"Ahhh!"

The dumb grandfather's roar sounded, and soon, everyone saw a huge monster jumping out of the forest.

I saw it standing up, looked around for a while, and then walked away slowly. It turned out to be a big horse bear.

What a bear!

Zhang Ganzi also shrank behind Liu Qingshan in fright. He was just talking nonsense just now, but he didn't expect that he really hit the mark.

Although no other wild beasts were seen, the forest was not peaceful, and the rustling sound rang for a while before returning to tranquility.

Only then did the dumb grandpa make a few gestures, indicating that everyone can start working.

Only then did everyone let out a sigh of relief. The pressure brought to everyone just now was too great, and those invisible dangers were the most frightening.

As a result, when everyone climbed the tree, their arms and legs were sore, and several people almost fell from the tree.

A tuft of hair even wandered in mid-air. Fortunately, he strictly followed the operation requirements and had a safety rope tied around his waist, so there was no danger.

"Everyone pay attention to safety, the safety rope must be fastened!" Liu Qingshan yelled again to remind everyone that this kind of high-altitude work is not a joke.

Everyone sat firmly on the tree and began to pick small yew fruits.

The ones near you can be picked easily; the ones that are far away and grow at the ends of the branches and leaves can be picked with a hook with a wooden handle to gently bend the branches and pull them to you.

If it's really out of reach, forget it.

Climbing to the tree, it is impossible to carry the big flower basket half a person's height on the back. They are all small baskets more than one foot high. They are carried on the chest and directly put the fruit into the basket, which is more convenient and efficient. .

When the small back basket is almost full, it is hung under the tree with a rope, and someone pours it into the big back basket.

Seeing that everyone was working, Liu Qingshan found a tree and climbed up to pick fruits together.

This work is not only dangerous, but also boring after a long time.

Just like Zhang Ganzi, already humming a ditty on the tree: "Second Sister Wang is sitting alone in the Xiulou with tears in her eyes..."

To be able to entertain and find fun, Zhang Ganzi probably has this mentality. Liu Qingshan reckoned: If Uncle Ganzi keeps this mentality, he will definitely live past a hundred years without any problem.

They worked until noon, when Da Zhang Luo yelled to call it a day, and everyone came down from the tree one after another.

The harvest in the morning was pretty good, about three to four thousand catties were picked.

So I carried it back and carried it back to the hot spring, where someone had already cooked a large pot of egg soup and was frying mushrooms.

The oil cakes brought were heated up in the pot, and each person had a bowl of soup, took the big cake, rolled it inside and ordered dishes, and they all started to gobble it up.

"It would be even better if I could have a sip." Zhang Ganzi was still not satisfied, and yelled for a drink.

"When you come home at night, no one cares even if you drink your wife's milk. If you drink the pole and get confused, you will plant it from the tree."

Da Zhang Luo said with a smile, and soon, the topic turned to something unsuitable for children.

After eating and smoking a cigarette, hurry up and work.

It gets dark earlier in the valley, so you can't be greedy for darkness.

When I drove home at night, even these strong laborers were all tired and staggered.

In Zhang Ganzi's words, that is: I have lost all energy for breastfeeding.

However, the harvest is still quite large. More than 1 catties of fresh fruit were picked in one day, and even after drying, it is estimated that there will be [-] catties left.

Liu Qingshan predicted that tens of thousands of catties of dried fruit would be harvested in the end, but he didn't know how much paclitaxel could be extracted from these materials?

Regarding the procurement of equipment and the recruitment of technical personnel, Liu Qingshan has already called Xiao Li in the United States and asked him to contact him for help.

However, the difficulty is estimated to be not small. Lao Mei has strict control over this aspect, and she can't wait to hold all the fun things in her own hands.

Sure enough, it was exactly as Liu Qingshan expected. That night, he received a call from Xiao Li, saying that he had contacted several pharmaceutical companies, but they couldn't reach a conclusion.

On the contrary, Pfizer is more interested and plans to send an inspection team to negotiate.

And at this time, Hou San also came to Jiapigou from his hometown, there was nothing he could do, Liu Qingshan asked them to stay here for a night, and then told Hou San to go back to Heihe first.

No matter what, he had to finish discussing the yew matter before leaving. He didn't feel relieved to leave this matter to others.

After waiting for a few more days, the delegation did not arrive, but Victor came to Jiapigou excitedly again.

As soon as he saw the old boy's bald forehead, Liu Qingshan knew something good was going on.

Sure enough, sitting on the edge of the kang at Liu Qingshan's house, Victor said with a smile on his face: "Liu, we held a tasting meeting according to your method, and guess what happened?"

Liu Qingshan could only build a ladder for him: "What's going on?"

"More than half of the people can't tell the difference between the two types of truffles. Even a few old gentlemen who often taste truffles have guessed wrong, haha!"

Liu Qingshan couldn't help muttering: "Victor, it's not all the babysitters you arranged, right?"

Victor shook his head like a rattle: "There are still a few of them with noble titles, do you think I can bribe them?"

Liu Qingshan also shook his head with a smile, he knew that the truffle matter must be settled.

"Liu, how about I take one-third of the profit this time?"

Victor didn't lay an ambush with Liu Qingshan either, it's not a matter of money when it's related to them.

Victor really didn't intend to play tricks, otherwise, he would not have told Liu Qingshan the truth, so of course Liu Qingshan had to show enough sincerity.

"of course can."

Liu Qingshan also nodded in agreement, in fact, this result has already satisfied him very much.

Because many commodities, in fact, most of the profits are taken away by middlemen.

As for the final price, Victor said: If it is an authentic French black truffle, then depending on the size of the truffle, the price per kilogram ranges from a few hundred dollars to thousands of dollars.

Oversized truffles will go directly to the auction.

However, the truffles produced in Jiapigou, of course, cannot be sold at such a high price all at once.

This point, Liu Qingshan is clear, because in later generations, the price of the truffles produced in the south of Caiyun is only a fraction, or even a tenth of that of others.

After Victor explained, this quote:

"Liu, some high-end restaurants I contacted are only willing to give half of the price, which is about [-] to [-] dollars per kilogram. What do you think?"

Liu Qingshan is quite satisfied with this price, at least the gap is not that big.

And after the reputation is fully developed, the price still has room to rise.

The current Jiapigou complex already has mountains of more than a hundred miles, and it is no problem to produce thousands of kilograms of truffles.

Both parties are old partners who have cooperated for many years and signed an agreement immediately.

Liu Qingshan's side, of course, is in the name of Jiapigou Cooperative, and he doesn't want to profit from such a business.

After signing the contract, the digging of truffles started naturally. Liu Qingshan told the news to all the villages in the consortium, and they all started to take action.

A few days ago, the specific location of some truffles has been found out, just dig it out.

There are also some people, leading pigs and dogs, wandering all over the mountains and plains.

Purchasing truffles is also a technical task, and you have to measure them with a ruler, and then determine the specific price according to the size of the truffles.

But no matter what, the lowest grade can be sold for one hundred and twenty thirty dollars per kilogram.
