Chapter 559 I finally understand why Cordyceps is so expensive

After riding for more than ten minutes, he came to the side of a small wooden house. Awang parked the car directly.

"Is it okay to leave the car here?"

"It's okay. No one will steal my Ngawang's things in Kangding, and if I steal them, they won't be able to do anything about it."

"Awang, I always feel like you are bragging."

Awang laughed and did not refute.

"How high is the altitude here?" Zhao Qin was originally wearing a thin coat, but now he felt a little cold.

For every kilometer of altitude increase, the temperature will drop by 6 degrees.

"Feeling uncomfortable?"

Seeing Zhao Qin shaking his head, Awang said: "It's about 3800 meters here. The location where we are going to collect Cordyceps is higher, about 4200 meters or more. If you feel uncomfortable, just say,

I brought a bottle of oxygen. If it doesn’t work, we’ll go down. "

"No, I don't feel anything." Zhao Qin took out a thin down jacket from his bag and put it on. It was necessary to keep warm.

The higher the altitude, the oxygen content in the air will decrease, making people feel more and more tired.

So when he was approaching the destination, Zhao Qin was already out of breath. Not only him, but Awang was also the same. They would joke with each other at first, but after a while they lost the desire to talk.

"Take a break, we'll start looking from here later."

Both of them were sweating, but they still didn't dare to take off their coats. Keeping warm at high altitudes is very important.

Moreover, there is a slight breeze and it is very cold. If you are not careful, you will catch a cold and then develop pneumonia, which will be troublesome.

Awang took out beef jerky and rice cakes, and the two of them ate and drank from the kettle. The beef jerky was very hard, so I tore off a small piece with my hands and threw it into my mouth, which made my cheeks hurt from chewing.

"Awang, what does Cordyceps look like? How can I find it later?"

"It's very simple, just lie down on the ground and look for it. The ones that come out of the ground are just a few buds, a bit like..., forget it, I'll find one first and you'll know."

Awang thought for a long time but couldn't think of a good adjective.

After eating, the two began to work. Awang held a short stick in his hand and fiddled with the newly sprouted grass from time to time.

Zhao Qin tried to imitate him, but he was very depressed. He probably wouldn't recognize her even if he encountered her.

"Awang, what's going on? It's been almost an hour."

Zhao Qin turned over and lay down, looking at the blue sky, and said feebly, "I haven't touched one for an hour. This is very wrong."

"That's it. Who told you to come so late? It's the end of the season now, and it's hard to find it during the peak season, let alone now." Awang replied without raising his head.

Zhao Qin suddenly laughed. Awang has made progress. He knows how to shirk responsibility. It seems that he is ready to join the team.

"Haha, come here Aqin, there is one here."

Zhao Qin jumped up, walked closer and looked in the direction of Awang's finger. After looking for a while, he still found nothing and shook his head.

Awang was stunned until his finger pointed at a small bud that was similar to soil.

At this moment, he really wanted to imitate what Wei Xiaobao said when he saw Eunuch Hai's cleansing bottle: Wow, it's so exquisite!

"I finally understand why Cordyceps is so expensive." Zhao Qin sighed.

"That's true. It's like cabbage. No matter how good it is, it's worthless. Watch me dig it out. Please be careful and don't break it."

The soil is not hard. According to Awang, hard soil cannot grow Cordyceps at all. The short stick in his hand was easily inserted into the soil, deeply, and then he pried it gently, and the piece of soil was dug up along with the Cordyceps. come out,

Then carefully peel off the soil on the side, revealing the true appearance of the Cordyceps sinensis.

"Not bad, this one is quite big." Awang said with a smile.

It's really not small, about the same length as an adult's middle finger, and slightly thicker than a matchstick.

Awang took out a small box, first picked some moss and spread it on the bottom of the box, then spread the cordyceps on top, and then closed the box. "Go on and look for it. You are lucky when fishing. Let's see how you find the cordyceps."

Zhao Qin was naturally unwilling to be the last, so he lay down on the ground and started doing it.

Staring at the same color or shape for a long time will make people feel dizzy. After looking at it for a few minutes, Zhao Qin had to rub his eyes.

In just half an hour, he didn't find any, and he sighed inwardly. On the one hand, he lamented the difficulty of those who dug up Cordyceps, and on the other hand, he was depressed about how his luck had failed.

Two grown men set off early in the morning and have burned a lot of oil, but only harvested one stick. This is so embarrassing.

I glanced at my watch and saw that it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. Although the local sunset was late, this speed was really annoying.

Zhao Qin considered himself a patient person, but he simply didn't look for these four words. He almost blurted it out several times.

It’s funny to think about it. As a billionaire, why should I compete at such a high altitude? If I really want wild ones, when the season comes, I can just ask Awang to pick up a few pounds for me.

"Aqin, there is some beef jerky, you can eat some." The higher the altitude, the more calories must be ensured. Awang was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he took out the food he had brought and handed it to him.

"I have no appetite, Nga Wang. How much can I pick in one day during peak season?"

"It's impossible to say for sure. If you're lucky, you might get 40 or 50 kilos a day."

Hearing what he said, Zhao Qin became even more discouraged. Grandma, forty or fifty pills a day might be the ultimate goal.

I was thinking of beauty before I came here, and I planned to dig out a few kilograms and take them back.

He said he had no appetite, but he still took the food, tore a small piece of beef jerky into his mouth, chewed and looked for it, and Awang yelled, "I found another one."

Zhao Qin came up again, and this time he didn't need Awang to point his fingers carefully, he also saw it.

"The progress is not bad. We may not be able to collect ten by the time we go down the mountain." Awang said happily, but Zhao Qin felt depressed when he heard it.

I have 79 lucky points!

Should I just replace it with ten cordyceps?

It's more interesting to drive on the mountains than on the sea.

Just as he was thinking, he heard chirping not far away. He looked up and saw several marmots standing up not far away, clenching their front paws and looking at him.

"Hey, you guys are here too, come here." Zhao Qin finally felt better after seeing a few little guys.

Several marmots heard the call and ran over quickly. The largest one came close and picked up his trousers again.

"What, isn't your family member injured again?"

Zhao Qin glanced at Awang, who scratched his head. It was too far away from their nest. It took at least three or four hours to go back and forth, but he couldn't say anything if he didn't save him.

"Awang, forget it, why don't we stop looking for them and just follow them down the mountain to see if they are really injured. If so, let's cure them and go home."

Zhao Qin thought to himself that he might as well go to a hot spring with his wife.

"Okay, it's the end of the season and we really can't pick much. I'll go to the Cordyceps Market tomorrow to have a look. If I come across wild ones, I'll buy some and you can take them back."

"Then let's go together then. I also want to take a look." Zhao Qin did not refuse, but lowered his head and said to the marmot pulling at his trousers:

"Okay, little guy, you go ahead and we can follow."

The marmot chirped twice, let go, turned around, and ran forward in small steps. After running a few steps, he turned back, waiting for the two of them to catch up.

"Aqin, this doesn't seem to be the way back?"

"you ask me?"
