Rebirth 1988 Farming and Raising Children

Chapter 3 Reassurance

However, the mountain people in 1988 had not yet escaped poverty, and no matter how delicious the mushrooms were, they were not worth the food.

Especially the people in the mountains, from snacks to adulthood, don't think it is rare.

People in the city are quite happy to eat it, but the whole territory of Yuncheng produces mushrooms.

At present, the tourism and commercial economy have not yet developed, and the supply exceeds demand due to self-produced and self-marketed mushrooms. The local market price of mushrooms is often only a few cents per kilogram.

The matsutake that the gringos admire, commonly known as the big flower mushroom, has a strong smell, and when people in their village see it, they don't even bother to take a second look.

A few slices of truffles in Western restaurants can be worth tens of thousands of dollars. They are all fed to pigs here, and they are also known as suis.

As soon as the pigs were released on the mountain, they would eat themselves under the pine trees.

In the early 90s, the export trade of truffles and matsutake took shape. Later, in this little-known village, because matsutake could not be cultivated artificially, many outsiders came to buy mushrooms.

The purchase price given to them by outsiders is a few yuan per catty, but it can be sold to exporters for tens of dollars per catty, but exported to foreign countries, it can reach hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The high profits, followed by Huaguo's gradually increasing export volume, have caused the cakes that have touched the interests of other countries. Although the prices have plummeted, it has not affected their reputation in the country.

By 2022, domestic matsutake and truffle manufacturers will do a lot of marketing. After truffles and matsutake are famous at state banquets and delicacies on the tip of the tongue, domestic sales of matsutake and truffles are no longer limited to exports, and domestic sales are also booming.

People in the village rely on the mountains and make some money.

Because he is paralyzed, his wife is the only labor force in the family. She has to take care of her and the children, and also has to take care of the fungi in the mountains. Therefore, compared with other families, the money they earn can only slightly improve their lives and ensure their son goes to school. , and bought him an expensive wheelchair, so that he can no longer be aggrieved to stay in bed.

It is now 1988, and their Junhua Village is located in Caixia Town, which is remote, and no one is buying matsutake and truffles.

But he believed that there must already be a place to buy matsutake and truffles in Yuncheng.

The reason is that the journey is long, and the best shelf life of matsutake and truffles is only three days. It takes him five hours to travel to Caixia Town, and there is only one passenger bus a day to Yuncheng, and it is often not crowded. If he brings mushrooms into the city, he must Gotta figure out a way.

While he was thinking of a way to be unobtrusive, he quickly cleaned the fungus.

After getting a wheelchair in his previous life, the kitchen belonged to him.

He cooks good dishes, and the whole family loves them.

One rooster was huge, and he cut it in half, and used half for stewing soup and half for stir-frying.

The strong fresh fragrance penetrated into the nostrils of Sun Miaolan and Xiao Yu'er after a while, and Xiao Yu'er kept pointing at the chicken in the pot, clapping her hands excitedly, "Eat me. Eat."

When he was just learning to speak, his mouth was full of small white teeth, and he was still drooling.

Sun Miaolan laughed, beautiful and moving.

She scratched Xiao Yu'er's nose, "I'll have something to eat in a while, and I can't do without you, little glutton."

Jiang Ancheng raised his eyes and saw this scene, his heart was filled with happiness, "Go and sit down, we can prepare dinner."

"it is good."

The steaming hot food was served on the table. It was obviously the same fungus, but it was extraordinarily delicious today.

Sun Miaolan put the chicken legs into his and Xiao Yuer's bowls, and Jiang Ancheng changed the bowls quietly, "Xiao Yu'er was born small, Er Bao can't be like this, you should eat more."

Sun Miaolan gave him a pleasing look with lowered eyebrows, and couldn't hide the joy on her face, "Okay."

The chicken soup was very delicious, Xiao Yuer didn't like soup, so Sun Miaolan didn't persuade her, she picked up the bowl by herself and drank a large bowl.

Jiang Ancheng took a bite of the crispy soaked radish, and then said: "After dinner, I'll go find the old man Li to repair the house." Then he said in a discussing tone: "Let's fix a small one first, and we'll fix it after a while. Make it bigger."

Sun Miaolan doesn't care about big or small, as long as it can rain without leaks and robbers can't get in, she is very satisfied.

She smiled, "I listen to you."

The little fish was full and ran around, the little man, with great strength, took a dustpan with the mushrooms that Sun Miaolan dried yesterday, and sent them to the two of them like a treasure, the little finger pointed to the chicken stewed mushrooms in the pot, and then He said three words in succession, "Eat, eat. Eat. Baba"

It means that I still want to eat chicken stewed mushrooms in the future.

Jiang Ancheng saw the fungus in the dustpan, rubbed Xiao Yu'er's round head, and said with a smile: "Well, eat, let's eat it whenever Xiao Yuer wants to eat, and open his belly to eat."

Seeing him coaxing the child, Sun Miaolan also felt happy, thankful that she was finally able to see the moonlight when the clouds opened.

Xiao Yu'er was very satisfied with his father's words, put down the dustpan again, and ran out to play.

Sun Miaolan scrambled to clean up the dishes, Jiang Ancheng picked out a piece of half-dried matsutake from the dustpan, and asked, "Where did you find this?"

Sun Miaolan turned her head and glanced, a little surprised that Jiang Ancheng often ran into the mountains, but he didn't know where the big flower fungus was.

Jiang Ancheng often goes to the mountains, but Sun Miaolan at home likes to eat colostrum mushrooms the most, and he likes to eat green palms the most, so he doesn't pay attention to things that even pigs dislike.

She didn't think too much, "There are quite a lot of shade on the hillside behind our house."

Jiang Ancheng smiled and said, "Then I'll go and have a look later."

Truffles can only be dug in winter, so he can raise a dog in advance and train him to find truffles as a housekeeper.

It was the matsutake season, so he had to hurry up and earn some good money now.

Sun Miaolan subconsciously asked, "What are you looking for, but no one eats it."

There are too many mushrooms here, and no one in the village wants to give them away.

That is to say, their family has little land, and she was afraid that there would not be enough food, so she picked up mushrooms and dried them to eat in winter.

Jiang Ancheng randomly found a reason, "I went to the town and saw that some people were collecting this kind of fungus. It seems to be quite valuable. If they can be sold for a good price, it is much better than risking the risk of hunting."

Sun Miaolan frowned, feeling unbelievable, "This kind of big flower fungus is everywhere in the mountains, how can they be sold at a good price, don't be fooled, let's make more baskets, you teach me, I learned it, so I don't have to go hunting gone."

For the restaurants in the town, people go to the mountains to collect fungi by themselves. People from the city come to collect fungi, and it is unlikely that they will come to Caixia Town to collect fungi.

Every time Jiang Ancheng went to the mountains to hunt, it took several days. She was worried every day, and she didn't want him to go for a long time.

Jiang Ancheng shook his head, "Try it and it doesn't cost money. If it doesn't work, I'll teach you how to make bamboo sticks honestly at home."

In the future, making flower baskets will also make money. This craft must not be let go.

This trip to the city, he can also see if the flower market has developed.

No matter what, I have known the business for many years, so it must be easier to enter the industry.

In her previous life, Sun Miaolan's biggest dream was to open a flower shop.

With Jiang Ancheng's promise, Sun Miaolan happily said: "Okay, then I will go digging fungi with you."

"Don't go, just discuss house repairs with Lao Li at home, and implement any additional requirements one by one."

"But if they know that we have money to repair the house, what should we do if we make trouble again?" She worried that Jiang Ancheng would soften his heart under Jiang's father Jiang's mother's pressure.

"Don't be afraid, the money is in our pockets, even if the Heavenly King and I come here, we won't be able to take it away!"

Jiang Ancheng's eyes were firm, and Sun Miaolan seemed to have taken a reassurance. As long as he was not soft-hearted, she would not be afraid of being poor.
