What is the origin of Xiaocaoba Tianma

Xiaocaoba Tianma is well-known outside. In the 50th year of the Qianlong reign of the Qing Dynasty (1785), the governor of Yibin, Sichuan Province, sent trusted officials to lead medicinal merchants and farmers to Xiaocaoba to collect and dig gastrodia elata, carefully selecting the finest ones and putting them in brocade boxes to celebrate the birthday of Emperor Gaozong Hongli. As soon as the trend started, false rumors spread, and officials at the prefectural and county levels used Tianma as a means of personal gain and promotion, which became a common problem. From the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, during the annual Tianma picking and digging festival, officials and merchants from various regions gathered at small grass dams to purchase. In remote mountainous areas and bustling cities, the daily market volume reached over a thousand kilograms. At the 1973 Guangzhou Autumn Commodity Fair, the price of "Chinese Xiaocaoba Tianma" was as high as 120000 yuan per ton, and buyers were still crowded and overwhelmed
