"Silly Dachun! This is cordyceps! ”
Who would have thought that hundreds or thousands of precious medicinal herbs that are usually sold outside would appear on the road!
On July 22, a video of "multiple men stopping cars on national highways" released by official news quickly aroused strong heated discussions among netizens as soon as it was broadcast.
However, what people never expected was that they thought that something big had happened on the road to make such a bad behavior.
But I never thought that the reason why the man stopped the car was to clean up the "caterpillars" on the road!
At first, after people saw such a thing, many netizens stood up and accused the man.
And claimed: Stopping cars on national highways without permission is already suspected of constituting a violation!
However, who knows, this sudden "caterpillar" has a great origin! Its real identity turned out to be the larva of Cordyceps!
Right! You read that right!
The man stopped the car on the Qinghai-Tibet National Highway, and what he stopped was "Cordyceps" worth tens of millions!
As soon as the incident came out, many netizens changed from a serious attitude to a lively mentality.
Many netizens said that this is a common custom of the people of Sichuan and Tibet, they respect natural life, and they usually mourn when they kill cattle and sheep.
Moreover, for small beings like this, they attach more importance to them, so they will behave like this.
When the editor searched the information, it was found that indeed as this netizen said, the Tibetan people do have a sense of reverence for natural life, and they usually pray before meals, just like what United Kingdom people do before eating.
Because of this, netizens began to gradually recognize the men's behavior, and also praised a few of them!
It means that as the customs of ethnic minorities, we should have a little more respect!
However, it was the same as the accusations of the previous people.
This matter is far from what netizens guessed! Things have taken a shocking turn again!
Just when netizens praised the approach of these men.
Some netizens questioned why "Cordyceps" appeared on the road?
And for Cordyceps sinensis, a creature that "is a worm in life and money after death", the audience may not know that its market price can generally reach tens of millions now!
Moreover, it is one of the three major supplements on a par with ginseng and deer antler velvet, and in the mouths of some traders, it is even boasted that it can "bring the dead back to life"!
Compared with this larvae, which are still alive, because of the "advantages and disadvantages" of environmental conditions, the quality of Cordyceps sinensis is also directly affected.
After searching for relevant information, it was found that as the origin of Cordyceps sinensis "Qinghai-Tibet Plateau", the cordyceps it produces is as high as 200,000 kilograms!
Even, if it is a larval stage, its value is many times higher!
However, at this time, some netizens may think, "this thing" is so expensive, why don't these men catch the bugs and sell them for money?
Sell? They are not afraid to sit in prison!
As early as many years ago, the state has not allowed the sale of Cordyceps sinensis without permission, and has adopted strict supervision of the market to crack down on the illegal sale of Cordyceps!
Moreover, according to historical records, in the medical classics 1,300 years ago, among the thousands of Chinese herbal medicines, none of them can replace Cordyceps sinensis alone.
And in 1615. Gong Yanxian, the great imperial physician of the Ming Dynasty and a famous medical scientist, recorded in "Shoushi Baoyuan": "Cordyceps sinensis is sweet and warm, hemoptysis is exhausted, and nourishes stomach and spermatozoa."
Not only that, in the well-known "Compendium of Materia Medica", there is also a record of information about Cordyceps sinensis "entering the lungs and kidneys".
Seeing this, many viewers may be starting to be a little impatient, you said so much, why is this cordyceps so valuable, didn't you still say it?
Don't worry, audience, I'm going to explain to you what the shocking secret of this little bug is!
In fact, in the final analysis, the effect of Cordyceps sinensis is only to "nourish the kidney and fat, stop bleeding and reduce phlegm".
To put it more popularly, it's this little bug, he's just a "yang tonic"!
And why this Cordyceps sinensis can be sold at a sky-high price of "200,000 kilograms" is because of its growing environment and the malicious touting of merchants later.
In fact, as early as the 60s, the price of Cordyceps sinensis was only "5.6 cents per kilogram", but in the 70s, its price soared to "20.30 yuan per kilogram"!
The younger generation may not know that 20.30 yuan in the 70s is equivalent to how much money is now.
To take the simplest example, my grandfather was born in '56, and when he went to work in the coal mine in '76, his salary at that time was only a few cents!
Compared with the 20.30 yuan Cordyceps sinensis, it is like the stars in the sky and gold on the ground.
Because of this, Cordyceps sinensis has been found by many malicious merchants to make high profits, and since then, many merchants have begun to sell Cordyceps.
Today, in 2021, the price of Cordyceps sinensis has risen tens of thousands of times, reaching an astonishing 100,000~300,000 yuan per kilogram.
However, after learning about the origin of Cordyceps, will you still feel ridiculous about the inexplicable behavior of these men?
Although cordyceps sinensis is not worth so much money, as a Chinese medicinal material, they do have their real effects.
As for the Qinghai-Tibetan people who revere life and have lived with them for a long time, they also regard this "caterpillar" as a kind of distinguished customer.
After all, I learned from my friend's father that many Tibetan people make their living on Cordyceps, and they also call Cordyceps "Yazha Gongpo", which means "winter worm, summer grass".
end
Back to the video, although we don't know if these men are Qinghai-Tibetan people.
However, it is undeniable that these so-called "caterpillars" are indeed larvae of "Cordyceps".
And the actions of these men are precisely to protect this ecological environment and respect the cycle of life.
From this point of view, regarding the matter of "a man blocking a car on the Qinghai-Tibet National Highway to clean up caterpillars", we should follow the local customs and respect the local customs.
However, at the end of the article, I still appeal to everyone to see "Cordyceps sinensis" rationally!
After all, it is only for a blind Chinese herbal medicine, and Chinese medicine pays attention to "internal and external adjustment", when encountering physical discomfort, you should first listen to the doctor's advice, and then buy medicine, do not use drugs indiscriminately, and finally the gains outweigh the losses.
In this regard, what do you think of the "sky-high price" of Cordyceps sinensis?
