The netizens were utterly speechless.
"You're digging up He Shou Wu, and you're making such a big fuss over it?"
"What's with the Left and Right Protectors?"
Chen Yang grabbed his cowhorn hoe and began digging around the He Shou Wu root.
He continued while digging, "Don't think I'm overreacting here."
"The natural environment of Southern Mountain is just too good. This leads to a lot of wild animals around here."
"Wolves, wild boars, I've seen them with my own eyes."
"And there are even rumors that there are bears and tigers deep in the mountains. But, I've never actually seen one."
"Alright, I've dug it out!"
Chen Yang cleared away the surrounding soil, grabbed the root of the He Shou Wu, and gave it a gentle shake. A complete root came out of the ground.
He held the root in front of the camera for the viewers to see.
The viewers could clearly see the root system of the He Shou Wu.
"Holy crap, it's huge!"
"Holy crap, it's thick!"
"Holy crap, it's black!"
"I suspect you guys are talking dirty, but I have no evidence!"
"Stop suspecting, arrest them all!"
"This He Shou Wu is half a meter long, right?"
"Where's the medicine store young master? Tell us, how much would this level of He Shou Wu be worth?"
[Xiao Dong]: "Master Chen's luck… I don't even know how to say it. For Chinese medicine, the age of the herb matters. The older it is, the more expensive it is.
This He Shou Wu is about half a meter long, and its shape is really good. Considering how big it's grown, I'd estimate it's at least 40 years old.
Don't think 40 years is short. In fact, a 40-year-old He Shou Wu is already quite rare. If Master Chen is willing to sell it, I'd buy it for 50,000."
"50,000?!"
"For this one, 50,000 bucks?"
"Master Chen, you've hit the jackpot!"
"Old saying goes, there's a golden house in books, looks like it's true!"
"If I had studied medicine back then, I'd be a millionaire by now."
"Wake up, even if you studied medicine, you wouldn't find this."
Chen Yang roughly assessed the price of this He Shou Wu and concluded, "In the market, this should be worth around 60,000."
Xiao Dong's offer of 50,000 was not bad at all.
After all, the medicine shop also needed to make a profit, and they wouldn't engage in a losing business.
[Drunk lying across the world] tipped 1 rocket and commented: "Master Chen, sell me this He Shou Wu, I'll offer 100,000. Xiao Dong, don't compete with me, I'm meeting my girlfriend's parents next week, and this He Shou Wu would be the perfect gift."
[Xiao Dong]: "… Sending He Shou Wu as a gift, what are you thinking?"
[Drunk lying across the world]: "Hahaha, ordinary gifts are too tacky. He Shou Wu is much more elegant."
[Xiao Dong]: "He Shou Wu elegant? Just wait, when Master Chen digs up a hundred-year-old wild ginseng, that's what I call elegant!"
[Drunk lying across the world]: "If Master Chen really finds it, I'll take it all."
[Xiao Dong]: "A hundred-year-old wild ginseng? That starts at a million, and you want to send that as a gift?"
[Drunk lying across the world]: "A million? Is that a lot?"
[Xiao Dong]: "……"
The netizens were silent.
"Front row watching the rich folks chatting."
"Who gave me the courage to watch the livestream with rich people?"
"I'm crying tears of poverty, I don't even have a hundred bucks."
Chen Yang knew that many rich people watched livestreams, but he hadn't expected that he'd have this level of wealth in his own stream.
One million and they didn't even care about it?
He had a strong impression of Drunk lying across the world because he was the number one donator in his livestream, with tips totaling almost 40,000.
Chen Yang quickly brushed off the dirt from the He Shou Wu root and said, "Drunk lying, send me your address. I'll ship it to you in the next couple of days."
[Drunk lying across the world]: "Sure, I'll PM you. Also, send me your bank account, I'll transfer the money to you first."
And so, the deal was made.
The viewers watched in envy.
But they all understood this was something they couldn't envy.
Because Chen Yang had earned it with his own expertise, digging in the mountains.
This was truly earning money with his own two hands.
He continued walking deeper into the forest, and by this time, it was already 4:00 PM.
The days in March were short, and the night fell quickly.
The sun was setting, and in an hour, it would be dark.
And in the mountains, unlike the bustling city, once the night fell, it was pitch black—no streetlights, nothing.
Chen Yang decided to keep searching for another half hour. If he still couldn't find anything, he'd head back home.
Along the way, he discovered many other medicinal herbs.
Jiagao, Rehmannia, Schisandra...
However, he only explained them to the viewers and didn't pick them.
"This place is about three or four kilometers from the village, and it's already 4:30. I still haven't found any wild ginseng."
"Looks like my luck isn't great today."
Chen Yang sighed and looked up at the sky, saying, "It's almost dark now, so I can't stay any longer. Even though I'm familiar with the mountains and not afraid of the dark, at night, a lot of wild animals come out to hunt, so it's not safe."
"If you ever come to the mountains to play, make sure you don't stay overnight in the wild. It's very dangerous."
He gave a word of advice.
"No wild ginseng? What a pity."
"Not bad, you found a He Shou Wu worth 100,000."
"I don't know why, but I feel happy inside when I see Master Chen not finding anything. Am I the only one who feels this way?"
"You're not alone."
"He's calling you inhuman."
"2333~"
At that moment, Little White suddenly started whining, sitting down and refusing to move.
"Are you tired?"
Chen Yang crouched down and petted Little White's fluffy head. Little White licked his hand with its tongue.
Clearly, it was exhausted.
They had walked the whole afternoon, and Little White was still a puppy. Chen Yang had taken breaks along the way, but if not, Little White might have collapsed on the ground and not been able to get up.
"This won't do. I'm counting on you to guard the house later."
Chen Yang chuckled and picked Little White up. "Let's go. Time to head down the mountain and get you guys something to eat."
At the mention of food, Big Black suddenly perked up, nudging Chen Yang's pants with its head.
"Big Black is so cute! I just want to pet it!"
"Big Black is a true foodie. Mention food and it's all energized."
"I'm so envious of Little White, being carried by Master Chen like a princess. I wish I could be held by Master Chen too."
Chen Yang held Little White in one arm and was about to head down the mountain when he suddenly glanced at the spot where Little White had been sitting.
Then, his eyes widened, and he froze in place.
The viewers felt an ominous premonition rise within them when they saw Chen Yang's expression.
"Could it be?"
"It can't be… could it?"
"Master Chen, what did you see? I can't handle it, take it easy on me."
[Drunk lying across the world]: "Hahaha, stop looking. Master Chen must have found wild ginseng, so now it's his turn to laugh."
[Xiao Dong]: "Looks like he really found it, and it might even be quite big. When he found that small wild ginseng before, he didn't react this strongly."
At this moment, Chen Yang spoke.
He cleared his throat and said helplessly, "Ahem, actually, I was really planning to go down the mountain and head home. But the mountain doesn't seem to want me to leave, and look… I really found something. And it's a five-grade leaf old wild ginseng."
The netizens were completely stunned.
