Chapter 43: Transplanting Mushrooms

There was a gust of wind and a gust of rain. The heavy rain finally stopped in the early morning.

at this time.

The entire production team's rice fields and ditches were filled with roaring floodwaters.

The air after the rain is fresh and slightly cold.

at this time.

It was the time when the young men in the production team were going up into the mountains and forests in search of wild products, drilling ditches and going to the fields to catch fish and shrimps with dustpans.

Luo Xuan walked out of the room, stretched out his arms and stretched out.

Now I have no intention of fishing for fish and shrimps in the water.

Go fishing for these things in the flood. The water is a bit cold. Luo Xuan doesn't want to waste his precious energy doing something that can't bring him high profits.

I took a short look around my new home, and saw the clear scenery after the rain.

Luo Xuan then entered the space, slipped out the broken clay pot he had picked up, and placed it in the shade of the yard.

Then he took a dustpan, dug some dustpan soil on the ground in the space, took it out and put it in a clay pot.

Finished with these.

Luo Xuan took the hoe again and dug a small hole in the corner of the yard while the soil was soaked by the heavy rain and easy to dig.

Then find some gravel.

Use yellow mud to build a pond as small as half a ping pong table with stones. Then pick out some of the big eels in the space and put them in the small pond to raise.

Luo Xuan also carefully built a straw shed on top of the small pool.

This prevents the mud pit from being exposed to the sun, making it difficult for the eels kept in it to survive.

However, these eels will be taken to the market by Luo Xuan tomorrow to be sold. They are only kept for a day or two, and the eels will definitely not die.

The next period of time.

Luo Xuan estimated that the three Zhou brothers would bring him a lot of earthworms, small fish and shrimps this week.

If you take earthworms, small fish and shrimps into the space every time to feed the eels, it would be difficult to explain to others what you are doing with so many earthworms, shrimps and shrimps.

Although judging from how afraid the three brothers of the Zhou family are of him, they may not dare to ask him questions.

But it would be better if we could try not to arouse others' suspicion, right?

So Luo Xuan planned to raise some earthworms in this clay pot first.

After I buy the chicks and ducks in two days, I can cover them up perfectly.

At that time, if anyone thinks that Helix bought so many earthworms, small fish and shrimps to feed such small chickens, ducks, eels, etc., is it a bit too much?

Luo Xuan was already prepared for this.

I am only a young man, and my family has just been separated, and I am just setting up a family.

A half-grown man is in charge of the house, and his house is in ruins.

Sometimes, when you do things by yourself, others don’t think you are doing it perfectly, and you do it a little bit taking it for granted.

Just like the little daughter-in-law who is making dough for the first time, either she adds too much water or too much flour, which is normal.

Moreover!

Luo Xuan is the head of the family, so what should he do? It's none of their business?

If you feel sorry for yourself that you are not doing things safely enough and someone who cares about you, you can come and give me some advice.

But Luo Xuan would never allow anyone to come and point fingers at him.

After all this work, it was already two strokes a day, and it seemed to be more than 8 o'clock and less than 9 o'clock.

Usually at this time, Luo Xuan would already be fishing for eels with his fishing hook in hand.

But now there is a flood in the rice fields, and the seedlings are submerged in the water, so I can't go out to fish for eels.

"Luo Xuan! Luo Xuan!"

Every time Zhou Laoer came to see Luo Xuan, he would always call Luo Xuan's name from a long distance away.

It was as if he was afraid that if he didn't reveal his identity in time, he would be plotted by Luo Xuan's agency.

At this time, Zhou Laoer had already been psychologically shadowed by Luo Xuan.

As for Boss Zhou, ever since he said "I obey you" to Luo Xuan, he has always avoided Luo Xuan intentionally or unintentionally.

So every time something happened, the second oldest son of the Zhou family always came to see Luo Xuan.

Follow Zhou Laoer's voice.

I saw a fish basket in his hand. As expected, the second eldest son of the Zhou family must have gone to the gap in the rice field early in the morning to catch small fish and shrimps and came back.

Wait until Lao Zhou and Lao Er approach.

Sure enough, I took the fish basket in his hand through the fence.

Luo Xuan opened it and took a look: there were some small miscellaneous fish and small shrimps of varying sizes.

"A little over 3 pounds."

Luo Xuan estimated the weight, then took out 3 candies and handed them to the second child of the Zhou family, saying: "This time, our account is settled."

Carrying the fish basket, Luo Huan turned back to the kitchen and poured all the small fish and shrimp into the casserole.

Then return the empty fish basket to Zhou Laoer.

"Luo Xuan, I found a great place for Nagano mushrooms!"

Zhou Laoer took the fish basket and said to Luo Xuan in a mysterious and low voice: "I will take you to see this place. It will be considered as my filial piety... Ahem, can it be considered as my contribution to you?"

"

In the rural areas of Bashu Province, every time it rains in summer and the sky clears up.

In some woods, many wild mushrooms will grow in the mountains.

As long as you find wild mushrooms in a certain place once, you will definitely find mushrooms in the same place again after it rains next time.

So the place where every child finds mushrooms is their secret and they will never tell others.

Luo Xuan took out the last candy corn from his pocket and handed it to the second child of the Zhou family, "I won't get your stuff for nothing. But why did you tell me this place?"

The second child happily took the candy, scratched his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "We have a total of 5 places to pick mushrooms. In the morning, my brother went to 4 other places to pick up mushrooms. Now he has gone to Hongxing Township to sell mushrooms.

went."

When Luo Xuan heard this, he immediately understood.

The mushroom that the second person mentioned just now is definitely still very small.

The three brothers of the Zhou family can't wait to pick the last mushroom.

Because Boss Zhou has already left to sell mushrooms in Hongxing Township. After he sells the mushrooms on hand and comes back to pick this place, the mushrooms may have been overgrown and become useless.

If the three brothers of the Zhou family had picked it off earlier and fed it to themselves, they might as well have "sold" it to Luo Xuan.

In this way, not only can they get a piece of candy to eat, but it can also bring Luo Xuan closer to them.

This wild mushroom grows very, very quickly. It only takes more than half a day for it to sprout from the ground and become completely old.

If you look at it in the morning, maybe it's only half the height of a chopstick.

But by the time you arrive at noon, the mushrooms may already be more than one and a half chopsticks tall.

Moreover, this kind of wild mushroom is very intolerant to storage.

If you find it is only a finger high in the morning, you think the mushroom is too small and plan to wait a while before picking it again.

But when you go there in the afternoon, it's possible that the mushroom has overgrown, has a hollow core inside, and the crown and stem have become woody.

Mushrooms that are old and dying like this have lost their fresh and tender taste and taste like chewing wood.

There may even be many tiny maggots growing on overgrown mushrooms.

This kind of mushroom is dry and woody, without the unique fresh and tender taste of mushrooms, so it is really inedible.

Luo Xuan followed Zhou Laoer and found the two mushrooms hidden in the corner of the woods.

The mushroom here is indeed very small, only the size of a finger now.

Luo Xuan said to Zhou Laoer: "You go back first, I'll wait here."

Wait?

The second child was stunned, feeling very confused: Although the wild mushrooms are sold at a good price, there are only two of them, so how much can they be sold for?

Luo Xuan actually doesn't mind the trouble and just waits here stupidly for it to grow up?

Feeling puzzled, Zhou Laoer didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he had to take the candy and walk away alone.

Wait until he is gone.

Luo Xuan used a small hoe to carefully dig out the dead wood stems around the mushrooms, as well as the surrounding soil.

Then bring the mushrooms, the culture and the mud together into the space, and plant them gently beside the spring pool.

This wild mushroom is extremely fresh and tender.

The delicious taste is definitely not comparable to the oyster mushrooms and gallbladder mushrooms artificially cultivated in later generations.

During this period, it was not easy for anyone to eat wild mushrooms. We did not have the technology and equipment to cultivate mushrooms artificially.

Usually if you want to eat mushrooms, you have to rely on luck.

Only after it rains will people in the market come out to sell bunches of wild mushrooms along the street.

Wild mushrooms have a very short shelf life and have special properties, so if someone picks up a wild mushroom, they can openly sell it.

Normally, if it doesn't rain, there won't be any mushrooms at all in the market.

Since the things in the space are not easy to rot and deteriorate.

Luo Xuan wanted to try whether he could successfully grow mushrooms in space.

If it succeeds, according to Luo Xuan's estimation, as long as he takes time to sell mushrooms, the price should be very high.

Rare things are valuable, and this principle is the same in any era.

(Don’t talk about poverty, no matter how poor you are, you never see beef being dumped into the ditch. No matter how poor you are, there are still people who eat expensive things...Shh⊙﹏⊙)
