Further inside, the fruit trees gradually decreased, earning the Spiritual Fruit Garden the moniker of "garden within a garden," with an outer periter of the orchard.
The second layer was a flower garden, planted with various lavish flowers, with colors ranging from purple magnolias to white jasmines and pink peonies. It was a dazzling display that overwheld the senses.
After both nose and eyes had received a treat, Xiao Xian followed Roo One into the innermost part of the Spiritual Fruit Garden. Devoid of the intricate flower hues and mouth-watering fruit fragrances, the innermost part of the Spiritual Fruit Garden consisted of several dozen acres of dicine fields, subdivided into equally sized blocks, resembling tofu chunks in appearance.
"Depending on the type of crop you’re planting, you can choose the appropriate soil," Roo One led Xiao Xian around the fields, and after a short walk, they had seen all of the dicine fields.
Xiao Xian stopped in front of a few acres of land.
The dicine field before her eyes felt familiar. Approximately five or six acres of land, the cultivating herbs and tilling thods all appeared to be the work of one person.
"This area is planted with ginseng, right?" Xiao Xian pointed at the blossoming herbs, "Can such precious herbs also be planted inside the Spiritual Fruit Garden? Aren’t you afraid of them being lost?"
"Those who enter and exit the Spiritual Fruit Garden are students and robots from the Campus. Any precious herbs produced in the garden are registered, so there’s no need to worry about losing them," Roo One had quite so trust in the integrity of the students from his Campus.
"Why didn’t I see ginseng as an option in the planting catalogue I saw just now?" What Xiao Xian had seen were common herbs like Perilla and Ma Huang. No matter how dedicated the cultivation, these could not match the value produced by the ginseng grown within the Spiritual Fruit Garden.
"The ginseng seedlings used for planting in this ginseng field are provided by the student themselves. The Campus does not object to students using their resources to cultivate higher quality herbs," Roo One answered in a monotone, providing a basic explanation.
Of course, the Campus wouldn’t object. Gaining 20% of a high-quality herb for free would make anyone grin from ear to ear.
As for Xiao Xian, she was now in possession of the Purple Ginseng provided by Zhou Ziang. Such ginseng, precious in the eyes of others, was no longer rare to her.
The reason Xiao Xian was taken aback was that she had recognized this variety of ginseng: the "new variety ginseng" previously brought to the market by Huang Yaoshi, which was the Xu Family’s ginseng.
The Xu Family’s ginseng naturally could not compare with pure wild ginseng in terms of quality. The market’s conventional ginseng classification was: wild ginseng, mountain ginseng, and garden ginseng.
Wild ginseng was like the Spirit Ginseng Xiao Xian had seen on the Changbai Mountain ginseng spiritual vein, which grew from seed to flowering and fruiting without human assistance, grew slowly, and was the most scarce.
Mountain ginseng was the result of ginseng farrs sowing seeds in natural environnts suitable for the growth of ginseng, collected at set periods, as wild ginseng beca increasingly rare and nearly extinct. Its dicinal effectiveness was between wild ginseng and garden ginseng.
As for garden ginseng, it referred to dicinally used ginseng produced on a large scale under modern agricultural practices, with an age of less than ten years. Most beautifully packaged ginseng on the market falls into this category.
i Nian and Pharmacist Huang Yaoshi initially did not pay much attention when a large amount of ginseng appeared on the market because they were confident that it could only be garden ginseng, the quality of which could not compare with the stock in the pharmacy.
However, they later realized that the quality of this variety of ginseng was much higher than garden ginseng, almost on par with mountain ginseng. Despite their efforts, Huang Yaoshi could not uncover the source of this ginseng through various channels of communication.
The mystery persisted until Xiao Xian visited the Spiritual Fruit Garden, where she discovered that the Xu Family’s ginseng ca from the North Campus.
Xiao Xian even suspected that the Xu family sent Xu Lan Ya to the Huake Institute because they knew of such asures at the North Campus.
"Who planted these few acres? The quality is very good; I will go and learn," Although she was almost certain, Xiao Xian decided to double-check for caution.
"Your eye for quality is not bad, these few acres of ginseng field are a demonstration field in Area B of the Spiritual Fruit Garden. The ginseng field is cultivated by Interdiate Student Xu Lan Ya. Since she entered our Campus, she has always been a role model for cultivation in the Spiritual Fruit Garden, enjoying a 20% tax relief every year," Roo One’s answer confird Xiao Xian’s suspicions.
"Thank you, Roo One, I’m done with the tour. I’ve decided to plant so herbs, and as for the land, I’d like..." Xiao Xian casually pointed to a spot nearest to Xu Lan Ya’s demonstration ginseng field, "I’ll take that spot over there, about the sa size as these ginseng fields."
Roo One moved to the spot Xiao Xian indicated, quickly asured the area size, and then inserted a silver-white plaque representing her student ID.
"Interdiate Student Zhu Xiaoxian, as a first-ti planter, the school can only allocate two acres of land to you. Once the planting area is confird, the school will send the corresponding robots to perform a spiritual power irrigation for you within the next two days. After completion, you must plant the chosen crops within three days; otherwise, your responsible field will be treated as neglected and reclaid. What kind of plant do you choose to grow?" Roo One answered chanically.
"I’ve made up my mind, I will also grow ginseng," Xiao Xian wrote the herb she wanted to cultivate on the silver-white plaque, grinning.
Xu Lan Ya, you’ve always been setting traps for to fall into, but this ti it’s your turn to learn about Zhu Xiaoxian’s prowess. (To be continued. If you like this work, please co to Qidian (qidian) to cast your recomndation ticket, monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
