Now reading: Chapter 251 - 249: Auspicious Signs and Unexpected Income! from Leisurely Life: I Have Ten Thousand Acres of Grassland, a Fantasy novel by Epiphyllum Falls.

Hadan drove the tractor, cutting the hay.

The grass here grew extrely tall.

At that mont, he saw many strange plants appearing in the grassland ahead.

Hadan roughly recognized these plants; they seed to be so Chinese herbal dicines.

There are many valuable dicinal herbs growing naturally in Inner Mongolia’s grasslands.

Of course, even though they are valuable, they’re not as expensive as sothing like top-grade ginseng or Cistanche. Even a large area can only be sold for thousands or tens of thousands of yuan altogether.

Hadan imdiately reported this to Jiang Feng.

At this mont, Jiang Feng was feeding parrots at the ranch and imdiately responded when he heard Hadan’s voice over the intercom:

"Okay, I’ll go take a look now."

Jiang Feng had quite a good understanding of plants.

He was still live streaming, and the viewers were quite surprised by their conversation.

[Found Chinese herbal dicine? Could it be that the ranch owner is about to make a huge profit again?]

[The white deer was born at the ranch, the owner is sure to encounter good luck!]

[It truly is, when auspicious signs appear, it’s definitely different!]

Jiang Feng rode a horse and galloped towards the grassland.

Now, riding a motorcycle wouldn’t be a problem either, but Jiang Feng preferred riding a horse.

Before long, Jiang Feng arrived at the area where Hadan was cutting grass.

He walked into the grass to investigate the situation ahead.

Indeed, there were many peculiar-looking plants, obviously different from the ordinary hay.

"It’s licorice, quite a common dicinal herb on the grasslands, and it’s valuable."

"I didn’t plant licorice seeds this ti; it should be naturally grown, pure wild licorice."

"Licorice is known as one of the four noble gentlen of Chinese dicine, mainly used to harmonize the characteristics of other dicines, clear talk, relieve coughing, and detoxify. It can also be used for making tea or porridge daily."

"Chinese dicinal herbs are expensive now, especially wild ones, they’re even more costly."

"Such a large area is worth so money."

Jiang Feng imdiately decided to harvest all these herbs.

The grassland is so vast, when there’s money to be made, you should make it.

Don’t waste it.

Jiang Feng carefully observed that there was quite a bit of this wild licorice, growing in clusters.

Cattle and sheep on the grasslands usually eat herbs too, but those are very common with little value.

Licorice is different; it’s sowhat valuable.

"Hadan, go ahead and cut it all."

"Then I’ll pick through it."

Jiang Feng shouted to Hadan on the tractor.

Hadan made an "OK" gesture, then the tractor pulled the mower forward.

Accompanied by the mower passing by, all the tall hay was cut down, falling to the ground.

Then, Jiang Feng called Bugude and Zhu Huo to bring a few bamboo baskets from the ranch to work.

The two directly drove in with an SUV, driving in their own grassland was no problem.

Jiang Feng demonstrated what licorice was, then the three began to pick herbs from the ground.

The herbs were placed in the bamboo baskets and quickly filled one basket.

These wild herbs were highly valuable.

Jiang Feng roughly estimated they could sell for tens of thousands.

Of course, compared to his hay, this money was nothing.

This year, the ranch had a great harvest; selling hay brought in millions.

It’s hard for ordinary people to understand why grass from the grassland can be so expensive.

But for the livestock industry, that’s the price of hay.

As long as the grass on the grassland grows well, it’s as good as gold.

Viewers watched the three pick herbs from the ground and were extrely envious.

[The ranch owner makes money so fast that just picking herbs from the ground can earn tens of thousands!]

[Earning tens of thousands a day, I can’t even imagine this speed!]

[Another little profit, I’m extrely envious!]

[The ranch owner’s daily life is like picking up money from the ground!]

In the grassland, soon, the three had filled three large baskets with wild licorice.

Seeing this, the baskets were far from enough.

"You two drive these three baskets back and then bring a few sacks over."

"We’ll use sacks to pack them!"

Jiang Feng said to them.

"Alright."

Bugude and Zhu Huo drove back again.

Life at the ranch is like that; sotis, work suddenly cos up.

Soon, they drove back with a few sacks.

Then, the three continued picking herbs.

The herbs were more than expected.

It just looked like a patch of herbal ground, but when picking, it turned out these herbs could really fill several sacks.

After picking enough, Jiang Feng had everyone stop.

"This afternoon we’ll find a Chinese dicine rchant and ask for a price; wild licorice should have a higher price."

Jiang Feng planned.

At this mont, while Hadan was driving the tractor clearing the grass, it seed he had found sothing again.

He said in the walkie-talkie:

"Manager, co over here and take a look, there seems to be new herbs."

Jiang Feng was a bit surprised upon hearing this.

Herbs?

"Alright, I’ll be right over."

Hadan’s tractor wasn’t far from here either, Jiang Feng got on the vehicle and had Zhu Huo drive forward.

The three of them reached the tall grass area again.

The area that had been grazed looked clean and simple, while the untouched tall grass area, with waist-high pastures swaying in the wind, seed to give shape to the breeze.

Jiang Feng walked past the machinery at the back of the tractor, then circumvented the tractor to arrive at the front.

The drone captured from up high, providing a great view.

In front of the pasture, there was another patch of herbal plants.

The stems stood upright, and the opened leaf surfaces appeared light brown.

Jiang Feng imdiately recognized this herb.

"It’s wild Astragalus Root."

"Mongolian Astragalus Root is likely the best variety, great for strengthening the spleen and replenishing, perfect for treating deficiency of vital energy and blood."

"Again, wild Mongolian Astragalus Root."

"I didn’t even plant herbs, how co these grow so well."

Jiang Feng marveled.

Artificially cultivated herbs are also quite profitable, but because they are artificially nurtured, they grow without hindrance, resulting in lower dicinal qualities.

Nonetheless, even so, many herders in the Tibetan Area earn hundreds of thousands to millions from herb farming.

Jiang Feng, having to care for the pasture animals, does not focus much on herb cultivation, mostly planting pasture.

Many pasture seeds were system rewards.

Looking at it this way, perhaps these varieties of pasture are also suitable for the growth of herbal dicine.

"Are all these herbs? We really couldn’t tell."

Zhu Huo looked at the spread of Astragalus Root and expressed his feelings.

Bugude chid in, "The manager recognizes them, we don’t know, even if we see them."

Jiang Feng said:

"There are many herbs on the pasture, but most are ordinary, suitable for livestock, priced similar to pasture."

"But dry grass and Astragalus Root are considered valuable."

"Let’s work hard and gather these Astragalus Roots as well."

"Tonight, I’ll ask Old Sun to add a course, we’ll have hot pot with beef and lamb."

Listening to Jiang Feng’s words, everyone got busy again.

Hadan drove the vehicle to mow down the herbs, then the few people collected herbs from the stacks.

The viewers in the live stream watched this scene with amazent.

At the sa ti, two official accounts gifted the strear and left ssages:

[Kirito Hall] gifted the strear Heart of the Universe*1: "Manager, we have a branch in Xilinhot, we can purchase all these wild herbs."

[Xuanhu dical Clinic] gifted the strear Heart of the Universe*1: "We are also willing to purchase wild Astragalus Root and Licorice at high prices!"

The current herbal dicine market is chaotic, although recovering, it is still unstable.

In herbal dicine, especially the wellness-type, consumption is large.

Wild herbs have far superior efficacy compared to artificially cultivated ones.

Once identified by herbal pharmacists as wild, their prices can be three tis those of cultivated herbs.

Jiang Feng saw these bullet comnts from the two entities and nodded, saying:

"Okay, I’ll visit the city’s herbal dicine store this afternoon, and check the prices."

"I’m definitely selling these herbs."

He hadn’t dealt with herbal dicine sales channels before, so wasn’t very knowledgeable.

However, relying on live streaming to find dealers is relatively simple.

The three of them packed several bags of wild Astragalus Root.

After a simple lunch, Jiang Feng took Zhu Huo straight to Xilinhot City.

The afternoon was basically spent inquiring about and checking prices.

Finally, these herbs sold for a total of 120,000.

Although not a huge amount, it was an unexpected inco.

Having a good pasture field is truly comforting.

That afternoon while Jiang Feng was asking about prices, another piece of news climbed the trending list.

The trending content made Jiang Feng feel amused.

#White Deer Brings Auspicious Signs#

The topic revolved around a white sika deer born on the pasture, bringing auspicious signs to the field.

The discovery of two patches of wild herbs during mowing, hence profiting from them.

People claid these herbs were brought by the white sika deer.

A manifestation of auspiciousness.

This story brings a uniquely Huaxia romanticism, which the public loved hearing.

Thus, more people chatted, leaving prayers in the video comnts.

Praying for career, love, health.

Jiang Feng saw these contents online.

He never expected the white deer suddenly beca a mascot of good fortune.

Clearly, there was no actual connection between the herbs and the white deer.

But it’s alright.

As long as everyone is happy.
