Era: Started from raising livestock in the mountains

It rained continuously for four days and stopped on the night of August 26th.

Lin Heng and Xiulan arrived at Hongfeng Mountain early in the morning on the 27th of the Gregorian calendar, July 12 of the lunar calendar.

The two fish ponds are full of water and are flowing out from the overflow openings.

"Do you want to drain all the water in the two ponds?" Xiulan looked at Lin Heng and asked.

Lin Heng held two pieces of five-centimeter-diameter plastic hose bought from the town. Each section was seven or eight meters long.

"No, just put the water from the second pond."

Lin Heng shook his head and said, the first pond has been disinfected, so there is no need to drain the water, just keep it.

The second pond has not been dug yet and must be drained and left to dry for a day before work can continue tomorrow.

Lin Heng blocked one end of the water pipe, laid it outside the pond, and asked Xiulan to fill it with water.

When it is full, pinch it and put it into the pond. Lin Heng opens the mouth of the pipe below, Xiulan lets go, and the siphon action will automatically drain out the water in the pond.

In order to drain the water cleanly, Lin Heng brought two pipes and drained the water together.

Without electricity, even if there is a water pump, it cannot be used, so we can only use this stupid method.

But fortunately, the effect is not bad. The water is drained in one morning. When the sun is shining, it will not be possible to do the work tomorrow, but it can be done the day after tomorrow.

"Husband, tomorrow, July 13th, is the market day. Are you going to the town to go to the market?" Xiulan asked on the way back.

"No, I want to pick mushrooms tomorrow." Lin Heng shook his head and said. .

"That's good. You can take care of Xiaoxia at home. Mom asked me to accompany her to the hospital in town to buy some medicine. She has been feeling sick recently." Xiulan looked at him and said.

"Okay, go ahead and let mom check it out, buy some more medicine, and give me some money." Lin Heng nodded.

"I understand, don't worry." Xiulan nodded.

After returning home and having dinner, Lin Heng and Xiulan's family went to the mountains to pick mushrooms. They had a leisurely life without any farm work.

During this period, there are still more tea tree mushrooms, and there are also some green head fungi and egg fungi. The broom fungus Lin Heng was looking for did not appear. He estimated that he would have to wait until mid-September of the Gregorian calendar when the temperature dropped a little.

Broom fungus, also known as coral fungus, is a very delicious fungus that blooms in autumn.

I found two Ganoderma lucidum flowers, which have almost stopped growing.

Lin Heng was looking forward to the temperature dropping in autumn. At that time, there will be an explosion of matsutake, Hericium and other mushrooms.

If you are lucky, you can also find a lot of black truffles.

They have black truffles here, and someone discovered them last year. It’s just that this thing grows underground, and finding it often depends on luck.

"Hey, Lin Heng."

When going back in the afternoon, Lin Heng met Jin Yan on the road. She looked at Lin Heng and said hello with a hint of resentment and a hint of amusement in her tone.

Because Lin Heng took all her mushrooms last time and didn't know what trick he used. From then on, Lin Hai didn't even look at her.

Even when she took the initiative to talk to Lin Hai, he was indifferent. Jin Yan felt that this must be Lin Heng's fault.

She felt that Lin Heng couldn't let go of her and didn't want to see her cousin interact with her, so she used a trick.

"What's wrong?"

Lin Heng was holding his daughter, looking confused. What was wrong with Jin Yan's tone?

But Jin Yan didn't speak at all, she just glanced at Lin Heng.

Xiulan looked at Jin Yan, her intention to protect food was very obvious.

"Don't look at me like that. Even if you give me your man, I won't care." Jin Yan smiled disdainfully.

She has a strong sense of superiority. This is just a man she doesn't like, so Chen Xiulan treats him as a treasure.

Xiulan nodded calmly: "This is best. It's enough that I care about him."

Jin Yan sneered and left.

Xiulan turned her head to look at Lin Heng.

She never doubted Lin Heng's feelings for her, she just simply wondered what happened.

"I'll tell you when I get back. She probably hates me for ruining her good deeds."

Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Okay." Xiulan nodded.

When he got home, while handling the mushrooms, Lin Heng talked about what happened last time.

He probably took all the mushrooms from her, and then called Lin Hai away, saying that the woman was for sale and was not Lin Hai's cup of tea. If he had the time, he might as well go after Tian Yan or something like that.

"Do you understand now? She hated me for calling Lin Hai away." Lin Heng said with a smile.

Xiulan nodded: "Understood?"

"Are you jealous?" Lin Heng chuckled.

Xiulan gave him an angry look: "Then how about you kneel down on the washboard like other men?"

"But you still have to stay away from other women, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable when I see you. You will only be mine."

Xiulan added another sentence, expressing her strong possessiveness.

"Yeah, I promise." Lin Heng nodded hard. He didn't think this was a mandatory order, but a proof of his wife's love for him, and he was happy in his heart.

And Xiulan herself did the same thing. Except for sometimes responding to a greeting, she never talked to the men in the village alone.

"Dad is mine." Xiaoxia raised her little hand and held her father's and said crisply.

"You were all born to me, and you are also mine." Xiulan pinched her daughter's face, feeling a little funny.

After dinner, Lin Heng read a story and put his daughter to sleep.

"Honey, I want to eat the paper wrap." Lin Heng smiled, opened the mosquito net and got into bed.

Soon I was eating the big, fragrant and soft buns, the kind that couldn’t be held in one hand.

Xiulan fiercely showed her possessiveness towards Lin Heng, overwhelming him with her gentle and delicate feelings.

Early the next morning, when Lin Heng woke up, his wife was already getting dressed, and he watched with interest.

"Be good and take care of the kids at home. My sister will give you sweets when she comes back." Xiulan playfully patted his face.

Lin Heng chuckled: "Sister, I also want to eat the paper wrap."

Xiulan gave him an angry look: "Well, it depends on your performance."

Lin Henglai didn't get up from the bed, mainly because he was a little tired yesterday and his lower back was a little weak.

Xiulan cooked vegetables for Lin Heng and steamed the rice. She ate a portion for herself, then went into the bedroom and poked Lin Heng's chest: "I'll get up and eat later. I want to rest and eat before going to bed, otherwise I'll be starved." My sister feels sorry for me.”

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded. It felt good to be loved by his sister.

It's great to have a wife who loves you as a grown-up, but will also feel sorry for you.

Xiulan glanced at him, took ten yuan and put it on her body in front of him, and went out with her backpack on her back.

"Isn't Lin Heng going?"

Mother Lin looked at Xiulan and asked.

"No, he's still resting." Xiulan said with a smile.

"What a lazy man, let's go." Lin's father laughed and complained.

Father Lin is also going to the market today. He plans to sell some medicinal materials. Liu Qicheng has no choice but to take a few items to the city to sell them.

Due to the continuous rain for three or four days, when the weather cleared up, there were many people going to the market.

When they arrived in town, Xiulan accompanied Lin's mother to the hospital to see a doctor and buy medicine.

Father Lin went to sell medicinal materials. When he walked to the purchasing station, he felt that there was a lot of noise, as if something big had happened.

"What's wrong?" Lin's father asked as he walked forward.

"The price of mulberry and yellow has increased greatly. It has suddenly risen to 3.5 yuan. Look at the big words written on the wall." A person next to him responded.

"The price of mulberry and yellow has increased significantly??" Lin's father was stunned and couldn't believe it.

He immediately looked up and saw a few large characters written on the gray-white plaster with black charcoal: Harvest a lot of mulberry, three yuan and a half a pound! !

"Oh my god!!"

Father Lin was shocked. The price of mulberry huang had really increased.

Rubbing his eyes, he looked carefully again. It was indeed true, the price had really increased.

"No, I have to ask." Father Lin felt that the words on it were not reliable.

I squeezed to the front and found Liu Qicheng who was selling the goods and asked, "Really the price of Phellinus mulberry has increased to 3.51 pounds? Are you not lying?"

When Liu Qicheng looked at Lin's father, he immediately recognized that this was Lin Heng's father Lin Xuan.

His expression instantly became complicated, with regret and jealousy intertwined.

He was really filled with regret now. When Lin Heng bought Phellinus mulberry, he thought he was a fool and went crazy.

Now it seems that he is the biggest clown. If he had left some mulberry leaves in the first place, he would have made a lot more money now.

The most uncomfortable thing was that the young boy he looked down upon had transferred such a large sum of money from him.

Especially these days, when he has nothing to do, he goes around saying that there are fools who still keep Phellinus mulberry. Now these people look at him like, oh, so this is a real fool.

"Of course it's true." Liu Qicheng said this reluctantly.

Father Lin was stunned. This information had such a big impact on him that he would not recover for a while.

"Do you still sell medicinal materials?" Liu Qicheng looked at him and asked, his tone involuntarily becoming kinder.

"If you don't sell it, you're selling it!" Father Lin grinned, turned around and rushed out, running to the hospital in one breath.

"Dad, what happened? Why are you running in such a hurry?" Xiulan asked quickly.

"That's right, why are you in such a hurry? You can't walk slowly." Mother Lin was speechless. At such a big age, she was still like a baby.

"Don't... don't talk about this. We'll go see a doctor later. I'll take you to see something." Father Lin gasped and said excitedly.

"What's going on? We'll be in line soon." Mother Lin felt that her husband was acting like a child today, and she didn't know what could get him so excited.

"Oh, stop talking nonsense, you will know when we get there."

Father Lin didn't bother to explain, so he pulled Mother Lin and walked out quickly. Xiulan could only follow.

"Really, if it's not a big deal, you'll have a good harvest." Mother Lin was speechless. She didn't even want to see her when she was sick. She came to see something.

When Father Lin took them all the way to the purchasing station, Mother Lin and others found that many people from Murakami were coming here, looking at them very strangely.

"Look at that wall for yourselves!!" Father Lin pointed to the large black characters written on the plaster wall in front of the purchasing station.

They all have primary school education, so they still know these words.

“Purchase a large quantity of Phellinus linata for three yuan and a half a pound!!!”

Mother Lin murmured and read it several times before she understood the meaning of this sentence, and couldn't help but froze in place.

Xiulan had already guessed that the price of Phellinus linteum might have increased when Father Lin called them here, but she was still stunned when she saw the specific price.

She didn't expect that it would rise so much all of a sudden, from 20 cents to 3.5 yuan, more than ten times.

It’s nearly double the original price of two yuan a pound.

Not only Xiulan Lin's mother was stunned, but most of the people in Hongfeng Village nearby were also stunned.

Phellinus mulberry costs three yuan and a half per kilogram. Lin Heng had hoarded at least a thousand kilograms before. How much does this cost? ?

Oh my god.

They had no idea how they would spend so much money.

Jin Yan, who was standing not far from Xiulan, was silent for a long time. She was a little confused about how much money Lin Heng would make.

She looked at Xiulan in front of her on the left, and her eyes inevitably revealed envy and regret.

If she had agreed to the Lin family's marriage proposal, she should be standing there waiting for everyone to envy her.

Yesterday, she said that she would not care if Lin Heng, a man, gave her a gift. Now she really regretted it.

It would be better if she never had it, but she had the opportunity, but she looked down on him because he was poor.

In the end, she gave up, and Chen Xiulan picked it up as a treasure, and really opened a piece of gold inlaid jade.

This taste was too sour and refreshing, and Jin Yan couldn't bear it. She felt empty in her heart, as if she had lost something.

"Jin Yan, why are you running so fast? Calculate it and tell me how much money Lin Heng can make this time?" Liu Lan next to her said quickly.

When she said this, many people looked over, and Jin Yan ran faster.

"Liu Lan, you are too blind. Lin Heng proposed to Jin Yan before." Someone said with a smile.

"That's right, why do you care how much money Lin Heng makes? He must be the richest man in Hongfeng Village. How can Jin Yan not feel uncomfortable?"

The people who spoke were a little gloating. They were also envious and regretful. But seeing someone who was more uncomfortable than themselves, they felt much better.

Xiulan came back to her senses, glanced at Jin Yan who was running away, and then pulled Lin's mother and said, "Mom, let's go."

"Okay!" Lin's mother nodded, thinking that it was really inappropriate to stay here. The whole village was talking about them, so it was better to leave first.

On the way, she whispered again: "Xiu Lan, how many kilograms of Mori Huang did Lin Heng collect?"

"A little more than two thousand kilograms." Xiulan said with a smile.

Mother Lin calculated and opened her mouth wide: "Oh my God, that's not seven thousand yuan, how much money is that?"

"More than that, this is just the price Liu Qicheng gave, it should be more expensive in the city. Not only did your son become the richest man in Hongfeng Village, he may also become a millionaire."

Father Lin excitedly grabbed Mother Lin's hand, he really couldn't see through Lin Heng.

"Oh my God, I dare not dream of such a dream." Mother Lin widened her eyes and opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.

"We have to thank Xiulan for this, she is the biggest contributor."

Father Lin looked at Xiulan and said: "Xiulan has always believed in Lin Heng, even we opposed it. If it were other women, I'm afraid that Mulberry Huang would be secretly sold after entering the house. Lin Heng really found a good wife."

"Yes, Xiulan's contribution is the greatest. Without you, that stinky boy Lin Heng might still be fooling around outside." Mother Lin grabbed Xiulan's hand and nodded affirmatively.

Xiulan smiled, with a happy expression on her face: "Mom and Dad, you are too much. I am not that good."

...

Not long after Xiulan and the others left, Lin Heng's eldest father Lin Xuping and aunt Li Ping also came quietly.

Looking at the current price of Coriolus versicolor, they were stunned. They had been waiting for Coriolus versicolor to fall sharply again so as to laugh at Lin Heng. As a result, it not only did not fall, but also soared.

They felt empty in their hearts and did not know what to say for a while.

The two looked at each other and left silently. Every time they looked at each other, they felt more regret and jealousy in their hearts.

In Hongfeng Village, before Xiulan and the others came back, someone had already brought back the news in advance.

The news of the sharp price increase of Coriolus versicolor came as fast as wings.

Village chief Zhao Xiancheng was drinking tea at home. His wife Tang Qing rushed into the house and said to him: "The price of mulberry mushroom has increased greatly. It is 3.5 yuan per catty. Lin Heng is going to make a fortune!"

"What!!" Zhao Xiancheng was stunned when he heard this, and the enamel pot almost fell to the ground.

That kid really made a lot of money by hoarding mulberry mushroom?

He felt a little unreal. He was fooling around with his son before, but how could it become like this all of a sudden.

Tian Dongfu, who also got the news, seemed much calmer: "Now we don't have to worry about Lin Heng not being able to pay wages. It is estimated that in a short time, our Hongfeng Village will also have a millionaire."

"It's incredible. How did Lin Heng determine that the price of mulberry mushroom can increase?" Wang Qin was very puzzled and really couldn't figure it out.

Looking at her daughter Tian Yan who was reading in the yard, Wang Qin smiled and said, "I heard that Lin Heng pursued you before. Do you regret it now?"

Tian Yan rolled her eyes and said, "What do you regret? I am interested in people, not money."

As she spoke, the shadow of Lin Hai flashed through her mind.

"Hahaha, you are worthy of being my daughter. People with knowledge really look at things differently." Tian Dongfu laughed.

In any case, this is something worth being happy about for him.

Before 12 o'clock in the afternoon, Xiulan and Lin's father and mother came back. Her parents did not go home, and they came directly to the new house with Xiulan.

"Lin Heng, you have made a fortune!!" Lin's father said happily as soon as he entered the door.

Lin Heng was playing games with Xiaoxia in the house. Hearing this, he couldn't help but smile: "The price of mulberry yellow has increased?"

"Yes, not only has the price increased, but it has also increased to 3.5 yuan per catty, which is a big increase." Lin's mother said excitedly.

"Haha, it's good if it goes up." Lin Heng said with a smile. Although his tone was calm, he was also very excited.

Although he was reborn, he was not sure that the price would definitely go up. What if it changed because of some butterfly effect?

"Alas, I won't say anything about what you do in the future. I really don't understand what's going on outside." Lin's father shook his head and said.

"Yes, if you want to do it, do it. Your father and I will not let you starve to death even if you lose money." Lin's mother nodded and said, feeling that at this moment Lin Heng really grew up and matured.

"Mom and Dad, don't think too much. You said this. I know you don't let me collect Coriolus versicolor because you are worried about the money I earned with great difficulty. I haven't been angry." Lin Heng said with a smile, feeling a little heroic in his heart.

It has been half a year since I was reborn, and I finally got the recognition of my parents.

"Brother, you are rich."

The eldest brother and his wife also came to congratulate. They just came back from picking mushrooms in the mountains and learned about this news.

The eldest brother's eyes were the most sincere blessings, and the eldest sister-in-law's eyes were full of envy and relief.

Envy Lin Heng for making so much money, and fortunately married Lin Yue, and could also get some light.

"Mom and Dad, and the eldest brother and his wife, let's eat here at noon. Xiulan bought meat, just celebrate it."

Lin Heng said with a smile.

"Yes, I'll go cook for you." Xiulan was so excited that she forgot to cook.

After lunch and some drinks, the family finally calmed down.

Lin Heng didn't dare to go out in the afternoon, and stayed at home with Xiulan.

If he went out, he would still be bombarded with inquiries and congratulations. It's better to wait until things calm down.
