With Pinxixi in hand, I have a supermarket in the Changzheng!

Chapter 390 Why is wild ginseng so expensive?

Zhou Yue knew that ginseng was not cheap, but she didn't expect it to be so expensive.

On the mall page, the prices of wild ginseng all start from several thousand points.

Some years with longer periods may even require tens of thousands of points.

Zhou Yue silently calculated in her mind that in modern times, the price of rice is about two yuan per catty.

In the system mall, one kilogram of rice is also worth two points.

At this rate, wouldn't a root of wild ginseng cost several thousand yuan? Oh my god! This is too expensive!

Shocked, Zhou Yue quickly communicated with the system in her heart.

[Tongzi, why is this wild ginseng so expensive? I remember that in my last life, a can of ginseng slices soaked in water only cost a hundred or eighty yuan!]

The system's voice sounded in her mind with a hint of ridicule.

[Haha, Sister Yueyue, don't compare those artificially grown ginsengs with this pure wild ginseng! Wild ginseng grows in the wild, absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, has excellent medicinal effects and is rare, so of course it is expensive! ]

Through the system's introduction, Zhou Yue understood what was going on.

The ginseng slices soaked in water that she bought from the pharmacy in her previous life were not wild ginseng, but artificially cultivated ginseng, also called garden ginseng.

The medicinal effects of artificially grown ginseng are much worse, and the price is very cheap and affordable. The roots of this kind of ginseng are round and plump.

With the nourishment of chemical fertilizers in the field, artificially grown ginseng can easily grow to half a kilogram.

But wild ginseng is different. It looks skinny and twisted, giving it a somewhat immortal look.

Even if it grows for hundreds of years, it only weighs a few taels.

Although small in size, it has strong medicinal effects. Eating just one whisker of a ginseng that is hundreds of years old can make you bleed from the nose.

Zhou Yue continued to scroll down the mall page and suddenly saw the most expensive one.

[Ah! There is actually a 240-year-old ginseng king! But the price is too expensive, 112 million points! That's enough to buy so much food! ]

The system said after hearing Zhou Yue’s sigh.

[This is the same model as in modern auctions. This price is normal! Wild ginseng that is hundreds of years old can easily cost hundreds of thousands! ]

Then Zhou Yue searched again for artificially grown ginseng.

The price is much cheaper now. If you buy it by kilogram, it only costs a few hundred yuan per kilogram.

Zhou Yue thought about it and realized that Dong Sheng’s mother needed ginseng to save her life, so she must have certain requirements for the medicinal efficacy.

Although artificially cultivated ginseng is cheap, its medicinal effect is definitely not very good, so after thinking about it, I decided to order some wild ginseng.

Zhou Yue ordered fresh wild ginseng, the kind with roots and seedlings included. She didn’t choose the particularly expensive ones, all of which cost several thousand points each.

[100 wild ginsengs have been ordered. Please confirm the placement location and time. 】

Zhou Yue thought about it and replied.

[When Brother Sheng goes up the mountain, just place one or two plants each time within his field of vision.]

When we got down the mountain, it was already getting dark, and we placed all the wood we had brought back in the yard.

After breakfast the next morning, Qiangzi and Dong Sheng picked up their tools and went to the yard to prepare to deal with the elm trees.

"Brother Qiangzi, are we going to get the wood to build the house now? Aren't the adobes dried yet?"

Zhou Yue walked forward with confusion in her eyes.

Qiangzi smiled, stopped what he was doing, put the knife on his waist and explained.

"We're not building a house yet. The wood has enough moisture in it, so we need to let it air dry for a while before we can use it."

Zhou Yue nodded slightly, her eyes falling on the wood.

"So what are we going to do today?"

"Today we need to peel off the bark of the elm tree and put it in a well-ventilated place. The freshly cut wood has a high moisture content. If we use it directly, it will easily deform and rot, and it will also be eaten by insects. Then the house will be destroyed."
