Windy: The leisurely life of the village owner

Chapter 162 The Great Harvest

Hearing this, Xie Zhiyao on the side also nodded and said:
"Xiao Feng is right, Lao Hu, don't think too beautifully!"

"As Xiaofeng said, even an experienced mushroom collector cannot guarantee that he can make a living by collecting matsutake mushrooms."

"Being able to harvest one pound a day for a few hundred yuan is considered a blessing from God."

"It's not every day that we can achieve such a big harvest. After all, it doesn't rain every day."

"Only after rain, various fungi on the mountain will grow rapidly."

"Normally, if you can collect a pound of matsutake in a day, you are considered very lucky."

After listening to Xie Linfeng and Xie Zhiyao's explanations, Hu Youyu nodded suddenly.

At this time, Mr. Ma on the side couldn't help but chuckled:

"Old Hu, there's no way to get rich so easily."

"You can think of this, can't others think of it?"

"But if you look at the locals in the village, they all either learn a craft or go out to work."

"If you can make a fortune by picking mushrooms, wouldn't the locals come in droves to pick mushrooms?"

"They must have tried it all. You can't make a fortune just by collecting fungi!"

"So, everything happens for a reason. It's still too simple to think about things!"

When Lao Hu heard this, he couldn't help but nodded obediently and said with a smile:
"It seems that I thought too superficially!"

When Xie Linfeng heard this, he smiled and said, "Actually, you can make money by collecting fungi."

"However, that requires a lot of experience and a bit of luck."

"Moreover, going up the mountain to collect mushrooms may also face some uncontrollable dangers."

"Let's put it this way, when society was underdeveloped in the past, people in the village could only rely on the mountains to survive."

"However, once you enter the mountains, you will face some unpredictable dangers."

"At that time, more or less villagers would be buried in these continuous mountains every year."

"So, without relying on the output of the mountains, the villagers cannot make a fortune."

"After all, in addition to various fungi, there are also many precious medicinal materials in the mountains."

"These are very valuable outside. If you are lucky, you can easily make a fortune from them."

"However, those who can really make a fortune out of this are only isolated cases after all."

"The dangers are out of proportion to the opportunities, so few people are willing to rely entirely on the mountains and forests for their livelihood."

Hearing this, Xie Zhiyao on the side also nodded and said:

"Yes, we grew up in Yunmiao and have seen many cases of people losing their lives due to entering the mountains."

"Therefore, very few of the younger generation in the village are willing to rely on the mountains and forests for their livelihood."

"I just go to a factory outside to make screws and earn a hundred dollars a day. Isn't it nice?"

"You don't need to face uncontrollable dangers at any time, and you can have more experiences!"

"Therefore, those who are still active in the mountains and forests today are the older generation of villagers."

"They have little culture and skills, so they can only rely on mountains and water to survive."

After saying this, Xie Zhiyao also felt a little emotional and paused before continuing:

"In the past, villagers could go fishing in the Erhai Lake and alternate between going up to the mountains and down to the sea."

"You can go up to the mountains during the harvest season and go to the sea during other seasons. You can have income to support your family all year round."

"But now that fishing in Erhai Lake is closed, the villagers have lost a lot of income."

"Therefore, those with skills in the village can only rely on their skills, and those without skills can only go out to work!"

"So, social development cannot be said to be a benefit to ordinary villagers, but it cannot be said to be a disadvantage."

"Humans, that's the way it is, you can't suffocate yourself to death! You can always find a way to survive."

"The original intention of our return to our hometown for development is to create better living conditions for the villagers."

"At least this way, we can avoid some avoidable tragedies from happening again!"

When Xie Zhiyao said this, his expression was already in a trance, as if he was thinking of something from the past.

Others may not know the hidden meaning of Xie Zhiyao's words.

However, Xie Linfeng is a Yunmiao person and a time traveler who knows the original plot.

Therefore, Xie Linfeng is very clear about the profound meaning of Xie Zhiyao's words.

Take the people around Xie Zhiyao, such as Xie Xiaochun and Xie Xiaoxia's father.

At the beginning, he died of an illness and did not receive timely treatment.

In fact, his illness was not a fatal illness.

As long as it can be treated in time, it can be easily cured.

Unfortunately, Yunmiao was very backward at that time, and there was no road in the village.

Therefore, we could only rely on horse-drawn carriages and ox-carts to transport him to the hospital in the town.

Unfortunately, the road into the town was difficult at that time, so we wasted a lot of time on the way.

By the time he was taken to the hospital, he was already dead.

Therefore, in the original drama, Xie Xiaoxia hopes so much to make a lot of money so that she can move to the city.

Even for this reason, I was accidentally phished and defrauded of more than 3 yuan that I had worked hard to save.It's not because Xie Xiaoxia is really that stupid and can't even distinguish such a simple fishing.

It was because he was too impatient at the time that he accidentally fell into someone else's trap.

To paraphrase Xie Xiaoxia’s words: He is the only man in the family, and he wants to support the family!

Of course, this is an example of other people's families, so why not Xie Zhiyao's own family?
In order to support the family, Xie Zhiyao's father and his mother had no choice but to work outside.

It was precisely because of their day and night work that Xie Zhiyao's mother became seriously ill.

When Xie Zhiyao was a teenager, his mother died due to overwork.

Such examples are not limited to Xie Zhiyao's family, but are common in rural areas.

Therefore, it is precisely because I have seen too many tragedies that could have been avoided.

However, because the village is too backward, these tragedies are difficult to prevent.

That's why Xie Zhiyao wanted to return to his hometown to develop Yunmiao, just to prevent those tragedies from happening again.

Unlike Xie Zhiyao, Xie Linfeng is not that great.

His original intention of returning to his hometown for development was because he was a salty fish in his previous life.

He couldn't accept the repetitive, nine-to-five work atmosphere of his original job every day.

Anyway, you are not short of money now in this position, so why are you still working so hard to make money?

It happens that there is still a villa in the village that can be inherited, so I might as well go back to my hometown to develop villa tourism.

Maybe you can make more money as a result.

Moreover, you can still be a salted fish honestly, why not?

Therefore, if Xie Zhiyao returns to his hometown to start a business, his intention is to prevent tragedy from happening. It is a sign of great love!

Then Xie Linfeng returned to his hometown to start a business. The so-called development of the rural economy was just incidental.

The main reason is Xie Linfeng Xianyu. Anyway, the two reasons of making money and developing Yunmiao are not in conflict, right?
Back to the topic, after some popular science with Hu Youyu, everyone began to disperse again and continued to look for fungi.

In the following time, Xie Linfeng, Xie Zhiyao and Chen Nanxing all began to gain something.

The fungi that Xie Zhiyao and Chen Nanxing found were all boletus, which were considered good fungi and were not small in size.

And Xie Linfeng's harvest turned out to be the same as Xu Hongdou's, which was matsutake mushrooms.

Moreover, Xie Linfeng was very lucky, and he harvested two matsutake mushrooms.

After all, Xie Linfeng's five senses are much stronger than others, and his eyesight is even better.

Therefore, Xie Linfeng quickly found two matsutake mushrooms next to each other not far from where Xu Hongdou harvested matsutake mushrooms.

The two matsutake mushrooms harvested by Xie Linfeng were slightly smaller than Xu Hongdou's.

However, the length is also more than five centimeters, and the condition is also very good.

Therefore, the two matsutake mushrooms Xie Linfeng found were both truly high-quality mushrooms.

As for Mr. Ma and Hu Youyu, they suddenly became anxious when they saw that everyone had gained something.

However, the two of them are newbies after all, so don't be impatient when looking for fungi, as they will definitely be rewarded.

The two of them discovered a lot of other miscellaneous bacteria, but not many of them were valuable.

No, Xie Linfeng and Xu Hongdou followed behind them, but they soon gained something.

Under a bush, Xu Hongdou noticed something strange with sharp eyes.

Using the bamboo stick that Xie Linfeng had prepared for her, she gently lifted up the dead leaves.

A fat and white matsutake mushroom appeared in Xu Hongdou's eyes again.

Xie Linfeng followed Xu Hongdou. As soon as the matsutake appeared under the withered leaves, Xie Linfeng also noticed it.

"Hey, Hongdou, you are really lucky. You can actually pick up places where Ma Ye and Hu Youyu have searched?"

Xie Linfeng's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Even Ma Ye and Hu Youyu, who were already more than ten meters ahead, heard it.

Then, the two looked at each other, quickly turned around and ran back.

At this time, Xu Hongdou had already chuckled, and then began to squat down and clean up the dirt from the dead leaves around the matsutake.

When Ma Ye and Hu Youyu gathered again, Xu Hongdou had already cleaned up the soil and started using bamboo sticks.

Xu Hongdou's learning ability is really strong, and her movements of prying matsutake mushrooms look quite skillful.

Even Xie Zhiyao and Xie Linfeng on the side couldn't help but nod with expressions of appreciation when they saw this.

Soon, Xu Hongdou pried out a huge matsutake mushroom.

This matsutake was quite big, almost twice as big as the one she had before.

Xie Linfeng took the matsutake from Xu Hongdou's hand, shook it gently, and said with a smile:
"Yes, it's another fine mushroom, and it weighs at least three or four taels."

"Just one matsutake mushroom is worth more than 100 yuan."

"Haha, it's almost comparable to a day's wages of an ordinary worker!"

Hearing Xie Linfeng's praise, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but smile and said:
"I didn't expect that I would get such a harvest just by turning over the dead leaves casually."

When Xie Linfeng heard this, he chuckled and said, "So you are lucky. The matsutake mushrooms are all hidden under the dead leaves."

"You can turn it out just like that, it deserves this fate!"

Hearing this, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but pursed her lips, smiled slightly and said nothing.
