You think at $220,00 it can't get any crazier... and then it does. This dude freaking started dying the roots so they could be traced.
Now... the story of such a story gets even crazier... know who informed me?! MY FUCKING MOM. I'm not gonna sit around for 5 years and wait for a goddamn gunfight over some ginseng roots, I don't give a fuck how much they're "worth".

comma in usual space, before com, as that's still funny.

I shit you not he actually uttered "supermice". What the fuck.

Each time Yenzi harvests a root, he plants a handful of dried seeds, which sprout the next spring, propagating ginseng that will be ready to harvest in about seven years. During the past four decades, Yenzi has planted millions of seeds.
Seriously. This is the most amazing fucking thing ever.
