Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

However, Liu Hongjun and others did not actually go to the uninhabited area opposite Huyuegou.

It's still too dangerous over there. Even though there are more than a hundred dogs protecting us, it can't guarantee absolute safety.

As the carriage slowly moved forward, the scenery in the mountains and forests gradually changed, transitioning from sparse bushes to lush forests, and the air was filled with a fresh scent mixed with soil and leaves.

The sunlight shines through the dense treetops, casting dappled shadows, adding a touch of mystery and romance to this treasure hunt.

Liu Hongjun and others did not turn, but kept walking along the Xiongxiazi Valley. At noon, they finally reached a small valley.

Liu Hongjun asked everyone to stop the car through the intercom.

The environment of this valley, and the altitude here, are several hundred meters higher than that of Yushutun. The environment is humid and dark, and the humus soil is very thick, which is very suitable for the growth of Gastrodia elata.

"Dashan, Shitou, you two will follow the old rules and be responsible for chopping dead wood and preparing lunch." After stopping the carriage, Liu Hongjun instructed Dashan and Shitou.

"OK!"

Dashan and Shitou agreed and took action immediately. Holding sharp machetes, they went into the dense jungle and looked for suitable dead trees.

Liu Hongjun couldn't wait to run to the hillside and start searching for Gastrodia elata.

His eyes were so sharp that they seemed to be able to penetrate through the layers of weeds and dead leaves and reach the precious treasure hidden beneath the soil.

Sure enough, Liu Hongjun's guess was correct. On a hillside covered with dense forests, there were densely packed Gastrodia elata growing.

Gastrodia elata has grown out of the ground to a palm-high height and has just emerged above the ground.

They are like shy girls, hiding quietly in the dead grass, revealing their yellow-white figures, waiting to be discovered by those who are interested.

If you don't look carefully, you may not be able to find it.

"Brother Shengli, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, come here!" Liu Hongjun shouted while holding the walkie-talkie.

Soon, Qian Shengli and his wife, as well as Dashan and Shitou’s wives, came running over.

"We're staying here and not leaving!

I looked around the hillside nearby and it was all Gastrodia elata." Liu Hongjun said to the four people with a smile.

"It's true, there are so many Gastrodia elata here!" Qian Shengli's wife bent down and picked up some dry grass, and immediately shouted in surprise.

After standing up, he asked Liu Hongjun nonstop, "Brother Hongjun, you are really amazing. How did you find this place? Didn't you say to go to Huyuegou?"

"This is very simple. There are a lot of Gastrodia elata in our mountains. As long as it grows, it will grow in clusters.

For thousands of years, no one went to the mountains to collect Gastrodia elata, so the Gastrodia elata grew more and more.

It is very easy to find Gastrodia elata. As long as you know the environment where Gastrodia elata grows and then look for a place suitable for its growth, you can basically find Gastrodia elata. "Liu Hongjun explained with a smile.

There are two ways of reproduction of Gastrodia elata, one is asexual reproduction and the other is sexual reproduction.

Asexual reproduction is the combination of Gastrodia elata tubers and Armillaria mellea, followed by growth.

When it grows up, it will produce many tubers, and then each tuber will grow into a Gastrodia elata plant in the spring of the following year.

Sexual reproduction is through seeds, which are spread by wind or animals.

After the seeds fall to the ground, if by chance there is honey fungus, they can grow and reproduce.

It is also because of this that Gastrodia elata can reproduce across regions.

After finding Gastrodia elata, no one cared about how Liu Hongjun found it.

No need for Liu Hongjun's instructions.

Qian Shengli and his three companions took out small hoes and started digging Gastrodia elata.

Liu Hongjun didn't say anything else, he bent down and started digging Gastrodia elata.

These densely packed Gastrodia elata are like pieces of RMB. We have been running around for the whole morning, isn’t it just to dig these Gastrodia elata?

At this time, we naturally have to seize the time to dig Gastrodia elata.

Dashan and Shitou were responsible for chopping dead wood, hunting, finding food and making lunch.

No one bothered to talk, they just knelt on the ground and dug hard at the Gastrodia elata buried in the ground.

Pieces of Gastrodia elata were dug out and thrown on the ground at random.

They didn't stop until Dashan and Shitou prepared lunch and called them.

“Let’s eat first!

Gastrodia elata is growing in the ground and can’t escape.” Liu Hongjun stood up and shouted to everyone with a smile.

"Yes, let's eat first and then continue digging after eating." Qian Shengli also stood up and said.

Liu Hongjun and Qian Shengli are both people who go into the mountains frequently, but they are not so enthusiastic about digging Gastrodia elata.

Dashan and Shitou's wife was entering the mountains for the first time. She was digging very hard. When she heard the call for dinner, she was reluctant to leave.

There are so many Gastrodia elata and so much money. If we don’t hurry up and dig them, how will we eat?

However, at the call of Liu Hongjun and Qian Shengli, the two of them got up and left, going down the mountain to eat.

Lunch was simple, chicken stewed with wild mushrooms and sticky bean curd brought from home.

After dinner, Qian Shengli, his wife, as well as Dashan and Shitou’s wives, continued to go up the mountain to dig Gastrodia elata.

Liu Hongjun and Dashan Shitou built a shack together and prepared a campsite for the night.

Liu Hongjun first walked into the valley to see if there was a suitable camping site.

After walking around the valley, I didn't find a suitable camping site, but I did find a lot of Gastrodia elata.

There is a small stream flowing out of the valley, collecting snow water flowing down from the mountains and flowing out through the valley.

The whole valley is humid and dark, with densely packed Gastrodia elata growing.

I really found the nest of Gastrodia elata.

Usually no one comes to this place, so there are a lot of Gastrodia elata.

At this moment, Liu Hongjun also remembered that according to the plan of the Forestry Bureau, this place would be planned as a logging area in three years.

Only then will the Gastrodia elata here be discovered.

This valley was called Gastrodia Valley. Later, the people who contracted the logging area used it to grow Gastrodia and made a fortune.

It is said that the money he earned from the Gastrodia elata dug here and the money he earned from planting Gastrodia elata later were several times more than what he earned from contracting the logging area and cutting wood.

This is also what Liu Hongjun said before: when contracting a logging area, the most profitable thing is not the felled timber, but other side businesses.

Since it's impossible to live in the valley, we can only live outside.

This is also Xiong Xiazi Valley. Liu Hongjun crossed the ditch and came to the opposite hillside.

On the sunny slope opposite, we found a col.

Liu Hongjun called Dashan and Shitou and asked them to build a shack in this valley.

The col is the wild boar's favorite place to live.

The col is also called a winnowing basket mouth. It is high on three sides, with an open mouth on the sunny side and a concave middle, which can perfectly block the wind without blocking the sunlight.

This is the place Liu Hongjun chose.

After choosing a place, the three men went into the woods, looked for trees as thick as bowls, and cut them down to build a hut.

Even if Liu Hongjun and his team did not cut down these trees, which were as thick as bowls, most of them would not grow big in the dense forest and would eventually die.
