Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 120 Planting Ginseng? (3140)

Xu Yue agreed to collect mushrooms from Huang Liang not because he wanted to make money.

He doesn't care about that money.

The mountains are indeed a treasure.

But why do the villagers no longer have a mountain to rely on for their livelihood?

In addition to the dangers in the mountains, there is also a lack of access.

Of course, there are certain limitations in thinking.

Xu Yue agreed, just wanting to increase the income of the villagers.

But if he wastes his time on this, it will obviously be more trouble than gain.

Therefore, Xu Yue prepared to ask someone to collect it from the beginning.

Why look for Xu Dashan?

Xu Dashan is one of the few people who often goes to the mountains nowadays.

This is also the reason why he has a lot of dried mushrooms at home.

If you pick too many and can’t sell them, you’ll have to dry them for easier preservation.

Of course, Xu Yue chose Xu Dashan not because he happened to be in the right place, but because he was familiar with the mushrooms in the mountains!

We know exactly which mushrooms are edible and which are not.

He is definitely the best choice in the village.

"Can I?"

Xu Dashan was stunned for a moment, and even the movement of picking peaches froze.

Nowadays, who in the village doesn’t want to follow Xu Yue!

Nowadays, there are probably not many young people who can earn a fixed monthly salary of two to three thousand yuan when they go out to work.

The key is that the work is easy and familiar.

"As long as you are willing." Xu Yue said.

"Yes! Of course I do!"

Xu Dashan said quickly, only a fool would not want to
This is a stable income!

Isn't it tiring to collect mushrooms?
What's more, Xu Yue is well-known for his generosity in the village.

Xu Dashan didn't ask about the salary, he just asked when he could start work.

"Come back after you pick the peaches!" Xu Yue said, "The agricultural trade company pays quite a bit."

Picking peaches is a temporary job and is more tiring, so the pay is naturally not low.

These peaches won't be picked for a few more days.

Xu Chengmin moved quickly.

The villagers reacted quickly, and some people went up the mountain carrying baskets that day.

And more on the second day.

Huang Liang's movements were not slow either.

The price list was also delivered to Xu Yue early in the morning.

Very detailed, including what kind of mushrooms, what price, how much fresh ones there are, and how much dried ones there are.

They even gave Xu Yue a suggested price for purchasing from the villagers.

The difference in price among middlemen is taken into account.

Xu Yue was not so greedy and did not adopt his advice. Instead, he raised the price and squeezed his own profits.

The price is slightly higher than that of those who occasionally come to the village to collect mushrooms.

"Fourth Grandpa, please send this price to the group and tell them to be careful when entering the mountains." Xu Yue said, "Safety first, don't go too deep. If anything happens, don't blame me."

"So high?" Xu Chengmin looked at Xu Yue and said, "If we sell it in the city, I'm afraid it will be around this price, right?"

If you sell it yourself, the price will naturally be higher than the price of purchasing it from someone else.

But it may not be sold, and you may even have to pay for the transportation.

This can be sold directly in the village, and the price is lower, which is reasonable.

"I won't do anything that will lose money." Xu Yue said with a smile, "The higher the price, the larger the quantity."

Xu Chengmin looked at Xu Yue and nodded.

He obviously realized that Xu Yue was increasing the villagers' income in this way.

good boy!

Xu Chengmin immediately sent the price to the group, and then many people went into the mountains with their backpacks.

There was naturally a burst of exclamations in the group.

Xiao Yue is so righteous!
Xu Dashan still had to pick peaches and didn't go to work, so Xu Yue had to trouble his father.

He even went to the city to withdraw money.

After all, not all villagers use online payment.

Stay safe.

Payment is made on the same day. However, the agricultural trade company does not settle accounts every day, but monthly.

Xu Yue had no objection to this.

As for when to pick up the goods, that depends on how much.

In the first few days, of course I came here every day.

There are a lot of goods in the first few days.

If you look for mushrooms to sell, you will find them mostly on the outskirts of the mountains, not deep inside.

Safety first.

Everyone in the village knows that the mountains are dangerous.

After all, mushrooms have a growth cycle.

After the first wave of searches, there will naturally be less goods.

"Those selling mushrooms today basically earned hundreds of dollars."

During dinner, Xu Jiangming spoke.

"Not enough cash?" Xu Yue asked, "I'll get some more tomorrow."

"You're buying this for the agricultural trade company?" Li Xiurong asked. "At such a high price, are you making any profit?"

"A little, but not much! We don't need that much." Xu Yue said, "After the peaches are picked, Uncle Dashan will take care of this area. It won't be a big deal for us."

Xu Jiangming and Li Xiurong both nodded without saying anything.

As long as you don't lose money, it's fine.

As soon as the price was announced, their family’s reputation in the village soared instantly.

You can earn more, but it's not necessary.

This small business is indeed not a big deal for their family now.

As for Xu Chengyang, he wouldn't ask about it.

I have been obsessed with studying medicine recently.

He rarely even leaves his room.

When I leave the room, I will most likely go to see the medicinal herbs I have planted.

Oh, right, my ginseng!
Thinking of this, Xu Yue suddenly remembered.

After dinner, Xu Yue went to take a look at his old room.

There are several foam boxes where ginseng is planted.

One is the ginseng seed planted at the beginning, and the rest are all artificially cultivated ginseng that was replanted.

“Is this ginseng?”

Zhang Ruoxi asked casually.

Xu Yue nodded, then carefully dug one out and went to his grandfather's room.

"Grandpa, what do you think of this ginseng?" Xu Yue asked straight to the point.

"Huh?" Xu Chengyang looked at the ginseng and said, "It's very spiritual, even more so than wild ginseng. If I didn't know you planted it, I might have mistaken it for a wild one, and one that's quite old."

Xu Yue planted ginseng in his room, and Xu Chengyang was naturally aware of this.

Some of them were even planted by Xu Yue under his supervision.

"Then I'll take it to the pharmacy tomorrow and try it out." Xu Yue said with a smile, "If I can sell it for a high price, maybe I can grow more."

It doesn't need to be as expensive as wild ginseng, but it's higher than artificially cultivated ginseng, so you can plant more.

A ginseng root can be sold for hundreds of thousands, but planting one acre of ginseng is not enough.
Okay, overthinking that.

Wild ginseng that is less than 30 years old seems to be inexpensive.

The expensive ones are those that are hundreds of years old.

The key is that scarcity makes things valuable.

If he really grows an acre of "hundred-year-old ginseng", can the price exceed one million?

Certainly not.

Why one acre?
Even with Xu Yue, I don’t have that ability now.

The spiritual soil used to grow ginseng.

The back mountain and the vegetable fields. Although the soil there has been improved by array formations, it is still a long way from being spiritual soil.

If you want it to become spiritual soil, it will take time for it to change subtly.

Planting ginseng in a vegetable field will not have this effect.

With Xu Yue's current level of cultivation, he would have to produce an acre of spiritual soil in batches.

With the Hunyuan Qi in his body, it is impossible for him to produce an acre of spiritual soil at one time.

It also needs maintenance, otherwise its spirituality can easily be lost.

"Judging from the appearance, your root should be similar to wild ginseng that is over fifty years old." Xu Chengyang said, "It's still a little far from being a hundred-year-old wild ginseng."
