A Chinese cabbage growing on the Sichuan-Tibet line is worth a lot of money, and it is said that you have to pay 4,000 yuan to pick one, if you touch this kind of Chinese cabbage that grows on the Sichuan-Tibet line.
One can bankrupt you, don't think it's alarmist, it's real.
In 2019, a daring self-driving tourist picked a plant that looked like a Chinese cabbage with his bare hands in the middle of a mountain driftstone beach along the way.
Originally, the tourist planned to take this Chinese cabbage from the Sichuan-Tibet line home to taste, but he didn't expect this move to cause him a big disaster, which not only sparked heated discussions among netizens, but even alarmed the police.
What is so special about this Chinese cabbage growing on the Sichuan-Tibet line, and why is its picking so controversial?
«——[The sky-high price of "cabbage" caused an uproar·——»
Things have to start from 2019, the cause of which was that a self-driving tourist picked a cabbage on the Sichuan-Tibet line, but something big happened in this battle.
On the way to the Sichuan-Tibet line, I found a plant that looked like Chinese cabbage on the side of the road.
The tourist was very curious, got out of the car and turned on his mobile phone, and took a video, the tourist held his mobile phone while walking towards the Chinese cabbage on the side of the road, ready to pick it.
So the friend said that he wanted to bring the Chinese cabbage back, and his hands were not idle, so he picked the Chinese cabbage with his hands, and then, the friend posted the video he took on the social software platform, and once the video was released, it caused an uproar on the Internet.
Sharp-eyed netizens pointed out that where is this Chinese cabbage, which is obviously comparable to the existence of gold, which is a unique plant on the Sichuan-Tibet line, and its name is Tahuang.
As soon as this netizen's comment came out, many comments and accusations continued to appear under the video, and even the popularity of this comment alarmed the local police department.
At the end of the matter, the man was verbally educated by the Public Security Bureau for picking rare plants on the plateau by mistake, and paid a huge sum of 4,000 yuan.
According to the locals, picking this special Chinese cabbage is at best damaging the environment, and at worst, it can really kill the locals.
What is so special about this plant, which is called Ta Huang, why is it so controversial to pick, and how special is it?
«——【·Non-protected plants also need to be cared for·】——»
Tahuang is a unique plant that grows on the Sichuan-Tibet line at an altitude of 4,000 meters to 4,800 meters, because this plant has a unique form and growth environment, so this plant has also attracted the attention of countless netizens.
At first glance, Ta Huang may seem to people to think that it is quite similar to our common cabbage, but in fact, it is very different from Chinese cabbage in terms of form and growing environment.
Tahuang is a net height of 2 meters, thick and straight plant, from a distance, it looks like a green lighthouse, unique on the desolate plateau.
The leaves of this plant are wide and fat, and they are green or yellowish-green, giving it a sense of vitality.
At the top of the yellow stem, there is a large flower with yellow-green or lilac color, which gives off a faint fragrance.
However, what attracts the most attention is not the appearance of Ta Huang, but the environment in which it grows, which grows on the extremely high flowstone beach, where the environment is harsh and gravel is piled up, and almost no other plants can survive.
However, this plant of Tahuang has taken root and grown in this desolate land with extremely tenacious vitality, becoming a unique landscape on the plateau.
For the people living in Tibetan areas, Tahuang is a treasure of the plateau, this plant is not only unique in form, but also its medicinal value cannot be underestimated.
Ta Huang is a kind of precious medicinal material in Tibetan medicine, in Tibetan medicine, Ta Huang is widely used in the treatment of various inflammation and pain, its rhizome is rich in active ingredients, with the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, reducing swelling and relieving pain.
In the highland area, Ta Huang is loved by the locals.
In addition, Tahuang also has a variety of biological activities, some people may think that the man paid 4,000 yuan for a Tahuang because of a plant of Tahuang, because Tahuang has extremely high medicinal value, but it is not.
The reason why this man paid a huge amount of money because of Tahuang is because of the unique ecological value behind this plant, although its appearance and form are similar, its growth environment and ecological value are far from being comparable to cabbage.
Tahuang grows on the flowstone beach at an altitude of 4000~4800 meters, under normal circumstances, in this area, the environment is harsh, gravel accumulates, basically other plants have no way to survive here.
However, Tahuang is a plant that is unique in this desolate land because of its particularity.
Its root system can penetrate up to 2 meters into the ground, drawing nutrients from the barren earth, not only supporting its own growth, but also acting as a stabilizer of sand and gravel.
Therefore, once the tower spring is lost, the flowstone beach may become unstable, and there may even be landslides and other dangers, which may seriously threaten the safety of the local people.
Although Tahuang is not a national protected animal, in order to protect the ecological safety of the alpine region, the local government and people still strictly protect him.
Therefore, this man's behavior has caused some damage to the local ecological environment, which is the real reason behind his huge payment of 4,000 yuan.
After seeing the role of Ta Huang on the plateau, some people also continue to cry out for the man, even if the tower spring plays a protective role in the plateau area, but picking a Ta Huang will not directly cause the loss of sediment on the plateau.
Putting the lives of the locals at risk, why was this man punished so severely?
«——【Symbiosis and co-prosperity with plateau creatures】——»
However, the fact is that the man was really not wronged at all when he received the 4,000 yuan penalty, in addition to its own unique ecological value, Ta Huang also formed a close symbiotic relationship with other creatures on the plateau.
At altitudes of up to 4,000 meters, the temperature difference between day and night is large and ultraviolet rays are strong, making it difficult for most plants to survive.
However, Ta Huang is an extremely tenacious plant with an extremely tenacious vitality in this land, and Ta Huang is a plant with an extremely long growth cycle.
It needs to store nutrients for at least 5 to 7 years from germination to flowering, and once it blooms, it spreads tens of thousands of seeds.
A small insect called the swift mosquito plays a key role in the process, and the yellow bud has no chloroplasts and cannot photosynthesize, but its UV resistance and heat preservation function provide an ideal breeding ground for mosquito training.
The swift mosquito thrives in the buds of Ta Huang, and also helps Ta Huang to spread pollen and seeds, achieving a mutually beneficial symbiosis between the two sides.
This symbiotic relationship not only ensures the continuation of the Tahuang population, but also maintains the balance of the plateau ecosystem.
Therefore, if the tower spring is destroyed, the living space of mosquitoes and other organisms will also be threatened, which is likely to affect the stability of the entire plateau ecosystem.
Therefore, for the ecosystem of the plateau, the lack of a tower spring is a fatal thing, and the tower spring itself has extremely high medicinal value.
Ta Huang is known as the auspicious three treasures of Tibet along with the snow lotus and rhodiola rosea in the Tianshan Mountains, so in Tibet, Ta Huang is a rare thing in the eyes of many people.
Even those who know the value of Tahuang do not dare to pick it easily. This is because this behavior will not only damage the local environment, but also threaten the survival of the Tahuang population.
It is completely reasonable for this man to receive a fine of 4,000 yuan for picking Ta Huang, as a unique plant on the Sichuan-Tibet line, which not only has unique ecological value, but also carries the deep feelings of the local people.
