Chapter 98 The Ginseng King Of A Hundred Years

"Just when you thought you've seen it all, someone came in with a stupid carrot, claiming it's ginseng." Said the clerk stationed at the counter, a hint of disdain evident in her voice.

Without saying another word, Jacob Ye removed the hard soil stuck on the root, then took it out for a wash at the pond, finally revealing its true identity.

"That is... a wild ginseng. It was huge, seemed to have aged about more than a hundred years old." The old Chinese medicine doctor, who had just returned from lunch, was astonished.

"Wait, is that really ginseng?" The shop keepers were stunned, including the one at the counter who was rendered speechless.

"That's right, not only was it over a hundred years old, it's also probably about five hundred years old." said a customer who came to buy medicine and clearly knew their ginseng as they gathered around, in awe of its presence.

"Five hundred years..." The clerk was beginning to see stars, as she almost fainted.
