Chapter 136 - Microbial Community
What happens in Chapter 136 of "Peach Blossom Divine Medical God"? After spending a night outside, Chen Yang was on his way home, his mind constantly... Read on to find out!
After spending a night outside, Chen Yang was on his way home, his mind constantly filled with thoughts of the animals at home and the greenhouse.
With him gone for a day, the animals must have been starving.
As for the greenhouse, he had no idea what condition it was in.
Chen Yang rushed home at lightning speed.
After parking the electric tricycle, he immediately went to the vegetable plot, pulled up some carrots to feed the wild boars, and then gathered some weeds and corn kernels to toss into the wild rabbit and wild chicken enclosures.
As the number of wild chickens increased and the range of movement in the iron cages was limited, the food supply in the Weed Slope area was no longer sufficient for them.
So Chen Yang had to carry a bucket or two of corn kernels to feed them every day.
After taking care of the corn kernels, Chen Yang suddenly remembered something.
He had prepared some wild chickens to send to Li Han the day before, allowing the hotel to try out the quality of his wild chicken meat.
However, due to Li Hanâs incident, he had forgotten about it.
Recalling this, Chen Yang immediately pulled out his phone and sent a message to Li Han, mentioning his intention to deliver the wild chickens.
He soon received a reply.
Li Han was very willing to accept the wild chickens, as her hotel primarily used feed-raised chickens and was in need of wild game.
âGood, Iâll bring them over now,â
Chen Yang replied with a smile and, after pocketing his phone, went inside to load the coops he had prepared yesterday onto his electric tricycle, then headed towards the county.
Around ten in the morning, Chen Yang arrived at Lintianxia Hotel.
Upon his arrival, the head chef Wang De immediately came out to greet him enthusiastically.
After handing over the wild chickens to Wang De, Chen Yang didnât go up to Li Hanâs office for a visit but chose to ride straight back home instead.
There were still some chores awaiting him at home.
He hadnât had a chance to check on the tents he had set up yesterday.
If there was anything odd about them, it needed to be dealt with promptly.
Otherwise, the loss could be significant.
On the way back, Chen Yang was in a good mood.
Humming a tune all the way, he returned to Liuhu Village.
Upon arriving home, Chen Yang went straight to inspect the greenhouse.
Wandering around the tent, he was pleased with the way the tree branches he had brought back from the locust forest and the pruned branches were almost fully integrated with the nutrient layer.
âAs long as they integrate, I can recreate the environment of the locust forest, and then I wonât have to worry about finding wild mushrooms,â
Chen Yang mumbled with satisfaction.
After several rounds of inspection in the greenhouse, Chen Yang didnât rest.
He ran back home to connect the water pipes he had bought from the county near the greenhouse.
Fortunately, the distance between the greenhouse and the village wasnât too great, so Chen Yangâs water pipes could indeed be connected to the villageâs water mains.
Water pipes are essential for cultivating wild mushrooms, as they only grow wildly after being exposed to water.
Chen Yang spent the whole day busy around the greenhouse.
He installed water pipes and did this and thatâit was a busy day.
Only in the evening did he drag his tired body back home.
Back at home, Chen Yang cooked himself a lavish dinner, took a bath, and then lay down on the bed to rest for a while.
He thought that tomorrow would be the right time to spread the spores.
Today, the nutrient layer in the greenhouse had evaporated nicely.
âI must tell the mayor this good news; sheâs been worried about this quite a bit,â Chen Yang thought, then immediately took out his phone and shared the news that he was ready to spread the spores with Wu Kexin.
After receiving the message, Wu Kexin first expressed happiness for Chen Yang but then regretfully said, âIâm sorry, Chen Yang, I have a meeting in town tomorrow, so I wonât have time to help you spread the spores.â
âAh?
Got a town meeting to attend?
Need me to give you a lift?â Chen Yang replied.
âOf course I do!
Or else am I supposed to walk there?â
Seeing this message, Chen Yang chuckled, âOkay then, what time are we leaving tomorrow?
Iâll take you.â
âHow about nine oâclock.â
âAlright, then Iâll take you.â
With a smile, Chen Yang turned off his phone and went to bed.
The next day, he got up, washed up, had breakfast, and rode his electric tricycle to the village office.
âVillage head, are we good to set off?â
He parked the tricycle at the entrance of the village office and shouted inside.
Hearing Chen Yangâs voice, Wu Kexin hurriedly grabbed a briefcase and walked out of her room.
âWhy are you so early?
Didnât we agree on nine oâclock?â Wu Kexin approached and asked.
Chen Yang took out his phone to check the time and found it was only eight forty.
Chen Yang smiled and said, âWell, I was worried the tricycle might be slow and make you late!
Besides, getting there early doesnât hinder anything.â
âThatâs true.â
Wu Kexin nodded and then climbed into the vehicleâs cargo bed.
âVillage head, hold on tight, Iâm starting up,â Chen Yang cautioned Wu Kexin, then started the tricycle and headed towards the town.
On the way, Chen Yang felt a bit bored and started looking for a topic to discuss, âVillage head, whatâs the meeting about in town?â
Wu Kexin sat in the cargo bed, looking at the surrounding fields and replied distractedly, âI donât know either, but since the townâs notice has come down, I just have to go.â
Upon this response, Chen Yang just acknowledged it and didnât ask any further.
But then, Wu Kexin suddenly brought up the subject of wild mushrooms.
âChen Yang, where did you find out those wild mushrooms were so valuable?
And have you considered, with such high prices for the wild mushrooms, even if you cultivate them, can you find a steady buyer?â Wu Kexin asked with doubt.
âI learned about the wild mushrooms from Li Han, their hotel often deals with that stuff!
And as for the market, Li Han has also solved that for me, her hotel is really short on wild mushrooms,â Chen Yang explained straightforwardly.
Chen Yangâs dealings with wild produce and wild mushrooms had been discussed with Li Han beforehand.
As long as they were cultivated successfully, they could supply whatever amount Li Hanâs hotel required.
So he didnât need to worry about finding buyers at all.
âSo thatâs how it is.
I was wondering why you suddenly got into this; turns out there was a recommendation,â commented Wu Kexin, realizing the situation.
âHaha, itâs not really like that.
The idea to cultivate wild mushrooms was my own.
Actually, Li Han also feels the same as you guys and didnât want me to get into wild mushrooms because she too thinks it involves a big investment and the cultivation is tough.
It was me who insisted on doing it,â Chen Yang said, laughing as he explained.
At this, Wu Kexinâs mood seemed oddly cold as she let out an âOh,â then fell silent.
This sudden coldness from Wu Kexin left Chen Yang somewhat puzzled.
Everything was fine just a moment ago, so why did she become indifferent when he mentioned Li Han also advised against getting into wild mushrooms?
Chen Yang was baffled, but he didnât say much else.
Before long, they arrived in the town, and Chen Yang dropped Wu Kexin off at the meeting venue.
Wu Kexin alighted from the vehicle.
âVillage head, how long is this meeting going to take?
If itâs short, I could wait for you,â said Chen Yang immediately after Wu Kexin got off.
âI donât know how long it will take, but it wonât be before the afternoon.
You should head back first, and Iâll call you when itâs over,â Wu Kexin replied.
âOh, okay then, Iâll head back first; call me when you finish,â Chen Yang said upon realizing the meeting wouldnât end anytime soon, and turned around to go back.
He needed to hurry back to plant wild mushrooms.
After dropping Wu Kexin off, Chen Yang got back home after nine oâclock.
The weather at that time was very nice, neither hot nor cold, an ideal time for work.
