The Best Male God

Chapter 6: Entertainment Circle Reality Show 6

Hi..I forgot to post this chapter even though it was done. SorryI will make up the other chapters that I owe soon (gonna do my best to stay focused during this break/delayed school). I know it's easy to MTL and updates are slow as heck, so I appreciate your patience and visit to my translation!

Due to Tang Bingyus injury, they couldnt continue with the organized missions. Not only did Zhou Zekai have to keep a watch on Tang Bingyu, he also began to divvy up the mushrooms. There were lots of mushrooms on this mountain, one could say that there was a mushroom everywhere you stepped as you followed the pathway. Except there were various kinds, and it was not possible to identify them all. Zhou Zekai learned the names of these mushrooms from the old grandfather who came to visit, as well as the period of growth and market price. He seemed to be very interested in this kind of thing.

Although Tang Bingyus foot still hurt from the injury, she listened in as well. She hadnt known that with one trip to the mountain, a basket of mushrooms could sometimes only sell for a couple ten or so yuan. This was the case for the amount that was able to be moved out from the village. If they couldnt move the mushrooms, then those are all for their families to eat. By eating mushrooms, they can less need for other food.

The people in the television crew filmed while lamenting the poverty and backwardness of the village. While they were at it, they reported to the people above about the programs circumstances. When they heard that another child that was to be changed in the program was already making a fuss to go home and getting into several fights, they truly felt fortunate that they were following Tang Bingyu and Zhou Zekai. Otherwise, wouldnt that be asking for their lives?

Thus in this kind of peaceful atmosphere, in the following afternoon, Zhou Zekais grandfather Zhou Yunye and his father Zhou Hongyi arrived. After all, his son had said in the phone call that he had discovered a ginseng root. Putting aside how far the ginseng dated, this luck alone was enough for them to make the trip. Furthermore, Zhou Zekai had specifically requested that Uncle Feng come.

This Uncle Feng was named Feng Ximing. He was a doctor of traditional chinese medicine and Zhou Hongyis good friend. His father Mr. Feng Sr. also had an extremely close relationship with Zhou Yunye. Whats most important was, if he came over, then they will immediately know if this ginseng was valuable or not.

Feng Ximing received Mr. Zhou Sr.s phone call in the night. Naturally, he could not refuse. He pushed back his own work and joined them on their way here. They found an acquaintance in the area beforehand to arrange for a car that can carry a freezer. As soon as they descended from the plane, they jumped onto the car and came here.

Grandfather!

Zhou Zekai heard the sound of the television crews greetings at the door while he was chopping the firewood. He immediately guessed that his grandfather had arrived. Dropping the chores that he was doing, he ran over. Zhou Yunye was also happy to see his grandson. Seeing Zhou Zekai come over, he reached out a hand and rubbed his grandsons head.

You didnt cause any trouble here, did you?

Actually, Zhou Yunye was aware that this grandson of his would not trouble others. He may have a tyrannical personality, but he was a child who knew how to take care of others.

No, grandfather. Quick, quick, quick. Follow me. That ginseng that I found is definitely a good one. After you [formal] and Uncle Feng examine it, you can just take it home. Just think of it as a sign of filial piety from your grandson!

Zhou Yunye was already in his seventies this year. When Zhou Zekai saw his grandfather, he couldnt be happier. He pulled Mr. Zhou Sr. into the room, leaving Father Zhou and Feng Ximing behind looking somewhat helpless.

When Zhou Zekai was sent to this village, he was in the middle of a falling out with Father Zhou. Zhou Zekai wanted to buy one of those cool racing motorcycles, Father Zhou wouldnt let him, hence the current situation.

After dragging his grandfather in, Zhou Zekai saw Tang Bingyu who was sitting on the bed and introduced her.

Grandfather, this is the little girl whos participating in the show with me. Her names Tang Bingyu, what do you think? Pretty, right?

As he cheerfully spoke, Zhou Zekai noticed that Tang Bingyu had been startled by the sudden appearance of his grandfather and found it extremely amusing.

Pretty. Very pretty. Grandfather Zhou nodded in agreement. Tang Bingyu quickly snapped back to her senses after being startled. A bashful grin appeared on her face, but it was still graceful and dignified.

Hello Grandfather Zhou!

Seeing this little girl be so sensible, Zhou Yunye was also all smiles. Under Zhou Zekais arrangement, he sat on the bed. There was no helping it, this room was too clean. It didnt even have a chair.

After seating his grandfather, Zhou Zekai speedily took out the ginseng-containing box that he had modified. Then he set it on the bed and opened it.

Uncle Feng, come and help me take a look. Isnt my luck good?

He waved Feng Ximing over. Zhou Zekai believed that the man would be able to recognize this ginsengs value.

As soon as the container was opened, Zhou Yunye was shocked. Although the leaves on top were withering, the ginseng on the bottom made Zhou Yunye so surprised that his eyes were gleaming. This ginseng head was so big, it must be 400 grams! This wasnt a ginseng, this was a treasure! No matter how old this thing was, solely judging from the head, it was most likely a treasure!

Feng Ximing also looked over. On the car ride over, he knew why he was called along. Upon hearing that Zhou Zekai dug out a ginseng plant, he found it odd. How could there be ginseng in this Mingan Villages landscape of your average tall mountain and forestry region?

Anyway, even if it did indeed have ginseng, it probably wasnt of good quality.

Yet now when he laid his eyes on this ginseng, he felt like it simply was a slap on his face. This ginsengs head was just too big! Not to mention that the leaves developed so well, its age was most likely quite a good number of years..

He couldnt resist reaching out his hand and carefully taking the ginseng over. Then he meticulously examined its wrinkles and its roots. Feng Ximing didnt dare to make a definite evaluation.

Uncle Zhou 1. The way I see it, this ginseng is already a treasure. Weighing it by hand, its definitely over 400 grams. And Ive noticed that these ridges are at least three hundred years. This kind of wild ginseng is basically a rare thing to come across today. Zekai is extremely lucky!!!

He reported a rather conservative number; in truth, Feng Ximeng was of the opinion that this ginseng had to be above three hundred years old. He couldnt pinpoint the exact year; they needed a professional specialist to determine that.

Father Zhou was also surprised. He didnt understand the ginseng field, but he could understand what more than three hundred years old meant in this sense. Right now ginseng that were decades old were worth about twenty million; this plant that was more than three hundred years old was extremely rare to come across. Even if its sold for a exorbitantly-high price, there would still be those who were willing to pay. Who told it to be a bona-fide wild mountain ginseng?

The television crew were also dumbstruck. That was a ginseng plant that was around three hundred years old! And it was a ginseng treasure! They werent that knowledgeable about the ginseng industry, but they did know that the older it was, the more valuable it is. This particular plant that was around three hundred years old could sell for at least a hundred million or so, wouldnt it?

Zhou Zekai was unmoved. After all, Feng Ximings evaluation was not entirely accurate. This wild mountain ginseng was definitely more than five hundred years old. Otherwise, it wouldnt have such a huge head. On the other hand, he was more amused at the sight of the little girl on the side with her eyes bugging out in surprise.

Uncle Zhou, this ginseng is of wonder quality. I can only give an approximate guess, if my father came, he will most likely be able to determine its age. However, the conditions for preservation here are not the best. Our freezer is entirely too necessary! Otherwise, this ginsengs medical properties would have been ruined.

Feng Ximing chattered nonstop. He was really so happy. Even if he couldnt possess this kind of ginseng in his life, he was already pleased enough to have seen one with his own eyes!

After all, this was a three hundred year or so old wild mountain ginseng plant!

1. Aside from a way to refer to your fathers eldest brother, the noun called in the raw is a respectful term of address for unrelated older men
