Super Ranch: Brothers come to Africa to farm

Chapter 21 A bumper harvest of wild mushrooms
Wang Lu finally thought about it and transferred [-] yuan to his account in China through his mobile phone, and then transferred it to his parents.

His domestic mobile phone number was basically abandoned, so Wang Lu also took the initiative to use his current mobile phone number to call his parents in China.

"Hello who?"

The father's voice on the other end of the phone was confused. Fortunately, Wang Lu immediately realized that it was a foreign number and quickly reported his identity.

"Dad, this is me, Wang Lu."

Hearing the familiar voice, Father Wang relaxed his guard, but soon started asking.

"Why did you transfer money to me and your mother again, such a huge amount? Where did it come from? And what's going on with your phone number? Why does it show that it's abroad?"

"The company sent me on a business trip to Africa. I should stay here for a while. The money is a subsidy given to me by the company. Just keep it. I don't have much expenses here. I use the company for food and accommodation. It doesn’t cost anything.”

Wang Lu just told the lie he made up casually. As expected, the father on the other end of the phone didn't dig into it, but he changed the subject.

"Where can I live without spending money in a foreign country where I am not familiar with my life? Just fool your father and me. I'll tell you how many times you can go back home. You don't have to worry about it. I'll transfer the money back to you quickly. A poor family has a way to get rich. It costs even more money abroad.”

When Wang Lu heard this, he quickly made up another lie to stop his father.

"The company paid a total of [-] yuan. I kept [-] yuan for myself, which is enough to spend. You can take this money with peace of mind, and I will have family leave at the end of the month to go back!"

As expected, Father Wang's attention was suddenly diverted:
"That's good. Your mother and I have pickled two jars of sauerkraut. You can eat it when you come back at the end of the month. This girl Wang Wei will jump up if she knows you are coming back."

Wang Lu felt a warm feeling in his heart, and then Dad Wang hung up the phone on the grounds that cross-border long-distance calls were expensive.

Then Wang Lu also went to the official website of the airline to book a round-trip ticket for himself to return to China at the end of the month. However, he had not yet adapted to his status as a multi-millionaire. Seeing that the first-class ticket price was close to 4 yuan, he decisively chose to give up. This round trip It’s almost less than [-].

We still have to save our money to build a ranch. We should spend it in the province. Why can't we return to China in economy class? The price is only about [-], and Wang Lu doesn't even have to think about it.

After settling the matter of air tickets, Wang Lu realized that the little guy beside him was already so anxious that he couldn't help but push his little head against his chest when he saw that he hadn't paid attention to it for a long time. He hurriedly hugged the little guy in his arms and hugged him hard. Masturbated for a while.

Although the rainfall was not heavy, it was the last song of the rainy season, but it continued to rain all night long.

In this way, Wang Lu hugged the little guy and fell into a comfortable sleep with the sound of rain.

In the early morning of the next day, Wang Lu stood up from the wooden house in high spirits. The drilling rig outside had been buzzing for a while. Wang Lu even heard Parker's voice in his dazed state.

"Hey guys, cheer up, this is not a good state to work in!"

Wang Lu didn't even know where this guy's energy came from, but having such a loyal and motivated subordinate was not a bad thing for him.

"Boss, you're awake. I've already purchased fresh beef and fresh milk for the little guy!"

When Parker saw Wang Lu appear, he immediately ran over and expressed his suggestions on the main content of today's work.

"If you don't have any special arrangements, I think we should collect the civet cat excrement."

Wang Lu also thought of the high value of those cat poop coffee beans, so he naturally readily agreed to Parker's suggestion.

After feeding the little guy, he let the little guy play by himself in the wooden house. Then Wang Lu followed Parker and took the tools to the Woulu Mountains.

Along the way, Wang Lu saw the African buffalo group, which numbered only about a dozen. They were still leisurely eating rich water plants. It seemed that they really planned to settle in the living area in the southern part of the Woulu Mountains. There were simply not many of them. Wang Lu ignored them.

Continuing to walk towards the coffee forest, thinking about the rain yesterday, Wang Lu suddenly felt something in his heart, and his eyes involuntarily began to lower his head to search.

Parker on the side was still a little confused when he saw this, and also asked aloud:

"Boss, what are you looking for? Maybe I can help."

As a result, the next moment he saw his young boss suddenly walking into the woods on one side as if he had discovered something, and squatted down excitedly.

Wang Lu looked at the umbrella-shaped things growing on the pile of loose earth bags in front of him, and he couldn't hide the excitement on his face.

"I never thought I could see chicken conongs in this part of Africa!"

When Wang Lu was a child, Wang Lu would go to the mountains behind his house early in the morning to search for the delicious mountain fungi, whenever it rained. Therefore, he was no stranger to this stuff. He could even be said to be extremely familiar with it. As long as the thing is watered by rain, it will pop up overnight.

The memory that had just been engraved in my bones was suddenly awakened. I thought that it rained yesterday, and I might be able to harvest something on this mountain. As a result, I found a nest of chicken fir trees during my search. .Apart from being larger in size than the ones in his hometown, there was no difference between the African gallinobacteria and Wang Lu. He picked all the gallinobacteria casually, so that one batch could be fried on a plate. , but he hadn’t tasted the taste of gallinobacteria in several years since he went out to study. The little umami taste could make a person hungry to death.

As a result, before Wang Lu could take action, he was stopped by Parker with a strange look on his face.

"Oh boss, these things growing on termite nests are so disgusting, I don't recommend you pick them!"

Wang Lu stared at Parker for a while, and after confirming that this guy was serious, he asked curiously:
"Parker, in your hometown, don't you all eat this fungus?"

Parker said with an exaggerated expression, as if he had heard some great news:
"Boss, you mean you picked these things to eat them? No, no, don't mention these strange fungi in the recipes of my hometown. Even mushrooms rarely appear."

Wang Lu finally understood after hearing this. He had known before that some foreigners were completely unable to accept various fungi, just like many people couldn't figure out why Chinese people eat animal offal. Obviously Parker was one of them. elements.

"Believe me, it will be delicious beyond your imagination."

Wang Lu followed the guidance while picking these gallinopsis fungi.

But Parker still resisted and spoke plausibly.

"But boss, it grows in a termite nest. My scalp goes numb when I think of those densely packed creatures!"

In fact, the favorite place for the Corianderma fungus to grow is termite nests, which is also an important basis for identification of the Corianderis. It is said that the reason why the Corianderis is so delicious has a lot to do with termites.

After figuring out that this guy's resistance to the chicken fir was purely due to his own overthinking, Wang Lu started picking it on his own.

Moreover, in addition to chicken fir trees, a rain caused many fungi to pop up in this forest. In just a short time, Wang Lu saw no less than ten kinds of edible wild fungi, such as green-headed mushrooms. , chanterelles, ganba mushrooms, etc.

And the amount of output is much greater than that in the forest land in my hometown.

"It seems like this land is really fertile!"

Wang Lu even discovered traces of matsutake while passing by the pine forest that had produced truffles.

Like the truffles, the unearthed matsutake also requires rainwater. At least when Wang Lu was digging for truffles before, he had never seen matsutake growing.

But after the rain, they all came out. The cute little ones were nestled quietly in the soil between the pine trees, their figures covered by a large number of pine needles. If Wang Lu hadn't been sharp-eyed, it would have been difficult to spot them.

This made Wang Lu suddenly shift the focus of today's work to picking these wild mushrooms. These are good things that can only be encountered but cannot be found.

Especially since the local area is about to usher in the dry season, if I want to eat these things, I guess I have to wait until the rainy season arrives in several months!

Parker on the side looked at his boss digging for those strange-looking wild fungi with great interest. He had already planned in his mind that if his boss got something wrong later, he would have to contact Arushana as soon as possible. A big hospital nearby!

After all, it is not easy to find such a young, generous, easy-to-get-together employer in the local area who is willing to provide him with a long-term and stable job.

After working all morning, the bag originally used to hold the cat poop coffee was filled with wild mushrooms.

Anyway, I don’t know how long the cat poop coffee thing has been left in the wild. It doesn’t matter if it is kept for a longer time. These wild fungi will soon rot in the forest if they miss the opportunity to pick them.

"Boss, are you sure you want to eat these dangerous wild fungi? As a subordinate, I feel it is my responsibility to remind you that this behavior is dangerous."

"Parker, as a field guide, have you never eaten these wild mushrooms before?"

"Yes, that's right! I won't eat them until I'm in a life-or-death crisis. In fact, certain conditions are needed to obtain these wild mushrooms, such as a rain. Usually, under such conditions, I will have better quality food. s Choice."

"Then you've missed a rare delicacy in this world!"

After Wang Lu said categorically, he immediately began to make plans. With so many delicious wild mushrooms, the most suitable thing is to have a pot of wild mushroom chowder!
Add some fresh beef into it, and the taste goes without saying.

Until Wang Lu had put the wild mushrooms into the hanging pot, Parker did not give up his persuasion.

But Wang Lu focused solely on cooking. In the end, Parker had no choice but to make a decision:

"Boss, if you insist on eating these things, I ask that you let me try them first. If they are not toxic, I will let you continue to eat them. This is my responsibility!"
