Chapter 142 - Wild Mushrooms Successful

The next day, early in the morning, Nizi and Wu Kexin arrived arm in arm.

Nizi came to help out, and Wu Kexin, like her goal the day before, wanted to see how the wild mushrooms were growing.

“Chen Yang, you’ve already started planting mushrooms?” When Chen Yang and Wu Kexin talked, Nizi asked.

Chen Yang nodded his head, “Yes, I planted them yesterday.

Today is the time to check if it was successful.

Do you want to come and see?”

Upon hearing this, Nizi’s mouth curled up, somewhat displeased, “Didn’t you say you wanted me to help you plant?

Why did you do it yourself, making me learn so much about mushrooms?”

Chen Yang couldn’t help but smile and explained, “The village chief had already arranged the construction team, there was no way around it!

Besides, learning more doesn’t hurt, we’ll keep working on the greenhouse, and you can still help me!”

Listening to Chen Yang, Nizi felt slightly better.

“Let’s go, let’s all see if the mushrooms have come out.” Seeing that Nizi was in a better mood, Chen Yang hurried the two women to go check the greenhouse.

The three of them walked to the greenhouse and opened the door to look inside.

A dazzling white sprawled before them!

All three involuntarily gasped in surprise!

“It worked!”

The most excited was undoubtedly Chen Yang, who had been longing for wild mushrooms for a long time.

The successful planting made Chen Yang the happiest and most excited of all!

“Chen Yang, you’re really amazing!

I really admire you,” Wu Kexin grinned, unable to hold back from giving Chen Yang a thumbs up.

About mushroom farming, she never had much confidence, much less about planting wild mushrooms.

Because she had learned from Old Man Lin, who dealt with mushrooms, that the success rate for these wild mushrooms was almost zero.

But unexpectedly, Chen Yang succeeded on his first try.

It was really incredible.

Seeing the reactions of the two, Nizi was a bit bewildered.

Because she didn’t understand the value of wild mushrooms or their success rate.

So she looked at Wu Kexin with a puzzled face and asked, “Village Chief, is it difficult to grow these mushrooms?”

“Very difficult!” Facing the inquiry, Wu Kexin nodded firmly, giving a very certain answer.

Before Nizi could continue to ask, Chen Yang suddenly exclaimed excitedly,

“We’re rich, we’re rich!”

And then he immediately started circling around the entire greenhouse.

He acted almost as if he were possessed.

While circling the greenhouse, he kept muttering, “We’re rich, we’re rich.”

Watching Chen Yang’s intense reaction, Nizi was even more confused.

She looked at Wu Kexin again and asked, “Village Chief, are these mushrooms very valuable?

Why is Chen Yang so excited?”

Wu Kexin glanced at the overjoyed Chen Yang, then replied with a smile, “Very valuable.

In the market outside, they go for over seven hundred yuan per pound, these mushrooms.”

“What?

Seven hundred yuan per pound?”

Nizi was shocked, her pure little face full of astonishment.

“Yes, it’s seven hundred yuan per pound.

Otherwise, why would your Brother Chen Yang be so excited?” Wu Kexin said with a smile.

Nizi thought about it and agreed.

Brother Chen Yang wouldn’t normally get so excited about ordinary amounts of money.

“That’s too expensive, isn’t it?

Seven hundred yuan per pound, who can afford to eat these mushrooms?” Nizi squatted down, looked at the tiny white spots on the ground, and couldn’t help but marvel.

“Nizi, that’s what you don’t understand, the more expensive something sells, the more in demand it is!

There are many people out there who love this stuff!” Wu Kexin was well aware of the market outside because she was one of those wealthy people.

As a wealthy person, she naturally understood the thoughts of wealthy people.

“Mmm, you’re right, Village Chief.

Scarcity increases the value.

To be able to sell at such a high price, it must indeed be worth the cost,” Nizi nodded her head, agreeing with Wu Kexin’s statement.

Nizi crouched on the ground, looked at the sprouting wild mushrooms for a while, and then stood up and looked in the direction of Chen Yang.

After circling the greenhouse a few times in excitement, Chen Yang immediately started to get busy.

He picked up a hose and began carefully watering again.

After yesterday’s work, Chen Yang seemed to have understood the growth pattern of wild mushrooms.

The boost from the nutrients wasn’t enough; frequent watering was necessary for the wild mushrooms to grow quickly.

After happily watering for a while, Chen Yang’s phone suddenly rang in his pocket.

He picked it up and to his surprise, it was a call from Wang De, the head chef at Lintianxia.

Chen Yang answered the phone, and Wang De was urging the delivery of pheasants.

It was already past ten in the morning, and Chen Yang was usually very punctual with his deliveries, but he hadn’t arrived by nine today.

So, Wang De called to ask about the situation.

“Something at home held me up a bit, I’m on my way to you now,”

Chen Yang replied, and then he hung up the phone.

After hanging up, Chen Yang looked up at the two people standing at the entrance of the greenhouse and said, “Village chief, Nizi, I need to step out for a bit, could you help me water the plants?”

Nizi and Wu Kexin exchanged glances, and then Wu Kexin asked, “Where to now?”

“Li Han’s hotel needs some pheasants, I’m delivering them right now,” Chen Yang candidly said.

Hearing this, Wu Kexin gave a nod and then stepped forward to take the hose.

“Then make it quick and when you come back, remember to bring a couple more hoses and also the spray head, it will make watering easier,” Wu Kexin reminded him as he was about to leave.

Chen Yang paused for a moment, then nodded, “Got it,”

Having said that, Chen Yang then went back to the clinic.

After loading all the pheasants he had prepared the previous night into his car, he rode to the county town.

Chen Yang drove fast and soon arrived at the Lintianxia Hotel.

As usual, he handed over the pheasants to Wang De, then turned and entered the back door of the Lintianxia Hotel and took the elevator to the top floor.

He knocked twice on Li Han’s office door, then walked in.

“You’re here.”

Seeing Chen Yang, Li Han immediately stood up with a smile.

“Sit here,”

and she invited Chen Yang to sit at the coffee table.

Li Han was probably used to entertaining guests this way, so even with Chen Yang, she was still very polite.

Chen Yang smiled and then, following Li Han’s indication, sat at the coffee table.

“How have you been lately?

How is the greenhouse doing?” Just as Chen Yang sat down, Li Han began making tea for him while asking about the greenhouse.

Chen Yang was just about to discuss this matter with Li Han.

He picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, then said with a light smile, “The greenhouse is doing well, we already have wild mushrooms sprouting today, I believe we will be able to mass-produce them in the future!”

Whoosh.

As soon as Chen Yang said this, Li Han almost couldn’t hold onto the teapot in shock.

“What?

Wild mushrooms are sprouting!

You’ve successfully cultivated them?” Li Han widened her eyes, her face full of disbelief.

“Yes!

I noticed them this morning!

Otherwise, why do you think I was late and only delivering the pheasants now?” Chen Yang replied smilingly.

“You actually managed to grow them,” Li Han was astounded, her inner shock indescribable.

Her thoughts mirrored those of Wu Kexin; they never believed that Chen Yang could cultivate them so quickly.

Now that Chen Yang really succeeded, she was nothing but astonished!

“Haha, nothing is difficult if you set your mind to it!

Actually, I have to thank you for the wild mushrooms, I wouldn’t even know about them otherwise,” Chen Yang humbly said.

“That was just something I did casually, don’t mention it!

But you really surprised me, to have grown the wild mushrooms so quickly.

If I weren’t so busy, I’d really like to see them firsthand,” Li Han still wore a surprised expression.

“There will be a chance, the greenhouse will always be there, and whenever you’re free, bring Ruoxi along for a visit; I’m always quite free,” Chen Yang answered with a smile.

“Mm, I will definitely visit when I have the time,” Li Han nodded.

Afterward, the two of them chatted casually by the coffee table for a while,

during which Li Han settled the payment for the pheasants Chen Yang had delivered.

“The quality of your pheasants has been really high these last couple of times, definitely not something that can be calculated at the normal price!” Li Han contemplated for a moment, then said, “Let’s make it three hundred fifty per pheasant, that’s a total of seven thousand, I’ll transfer it to you now.”

Saying that, Li Han took out her phone and promptly transferred the money to Chen Yang.

“Alright, I should be going now, if you need anything in the future, just call me and I’ll deliver,” Chen Yang stated as he stood up.

“Alright, bye.”

Li Han also stood up and walked Chen Yang to the elevator.

Because she was very busy with work, she didn’t accompany Chen Yang downstairs.
