Chapter 160 - Great Harvest

Halfway through his work, Wu Kexin suddenly appeared in the greenhouse, just like Chen Yang.

She guessed that the wild mushrooms were about ready and came to check on them.

As she entered the greenhouse and saw the mature wild mushrooms everywhere, she was briefly surprised, then her face lit up with the same smile as Chen Yang’s.

“They really are ripe!

It’s a bountiful harvest!” Wu Kexin’s eyes widened as she said to Chen Yang.

Chen Yang looked up at the sound of her voice and saw Wu Kexin.

“Yes!

A huge harvest!” He nodded and then estimated in his mind, saying, “We can at least harvest over twenty pounds today, and wait for the rest to mature before continuing to harvest!”

“Over twenty pounds!” Wu Kexin was stunned for a moment, then, like Chen Yang, she started to do the math in her head.

Even at twenty pounds, seven hundred yuan per pound, that’s over ten thousand yuan.

To earn over ten thousand in just three days.

This was simply a huge profit!

“Chen Yang, you’re really going to make a fortune!” Wu Kexin said with a face full of astonishment.

Chen Yang’s smile was so wide he could hardly close his mouth.

“Village chief, don’t just stand there, come and help me pick the wild mushrooms.

I need to hurry and take them to the city to sell.”

Wu Kexin snapped out of her daze and quickly nodded, then started working busily alongside Chen Yang.

The two worked swiftly, and in no time, all the mature wild mushrooms in the greenhouse were picked.

After harvesting the mushrooms, Chen Yang didn’t rush back but watered the mushrooms as usual.

Then, with two full baskets of fresh wild mushrooms, he went back home.

“Village chief, you haven’t had breakfast, right?

Come to my house to eat!

Try the taste of the wild mushrooms first.” On the way back, Chen Yang invited Wu Kexin.

Wu Kexin also wanted to taste the wild mushrooms, so she immediately nodded and agreed.

The two returned to the clinic.

Nizi looked at the wild mushrooms Chen Yang was carrying, and her pure little face was exactly like Wu Kexin’s when she first entered the greenhouse.

Her entire face was an expression of shock.

“Brother Chen Yang…

the wild mushrooms have been harvested so quickly!”

Chen Yang smiled and nodded, “That’s right, just picked.

In a bit, I’ll cook some for you guys to try.

Chen Yang, with a broad smile, took the wild mushrooms to the backyard.

He immediately chose some of the better ones, planning to prepare a fresh mushroom breakfast.

He wanted the two women to taste the mushrooms first.

The two had helped him with the mushrooms for a long time, and now that they had finally succeeded, it was natural to let them try first.

He picked out the good mushrooms, then immediately took them to the kitchen.

After washing them, he started to make fresh mushroom soup.

Chen Yang was very skilled in cooking and made it very well.

Not long after, the fragrant fresh mushroom soup was perfectly ready.

Nizi and Wu Kexin didn’t need to be called; they were already waiting at the table with bowls and chopsticks.

Chen Yang brought the fresh mushroom soup out of the kitchen and set it before them.

“Try it, this stuff would cost at least a thousand yuan a pot outside!”

Chen Yang said with a smile.

The two women nodded and immediately picked up the chopsticks prepared beforehand, starting to taste it.

The mushrooms were exceptionally fresh and delicious.

Not only were the mushrooms delicious, but the soup was also incredibly tasty.

With just one taste, the two were full of praise.

“Wow!

It’s really so delicious!

No wonder it’s sold for such a high price.”

“This is the best soup I’ve ever had!

The flavor is just amazing.”

The women were effusive in their praise, which made Chen Yang very happy.

Even though he knew they would react this way, it still pleased him immensely.

“If you like it, eat more!”

Chen Yang, smiling, ladled more soup for each of the women.

Without a word, the two women picked up their bowls and drank heartily.

Nizi and Wu Kexin usually cared quite a bit about their image.

They always ate quietly, but in front of the wild mushrooms, they cast their reservations aside.

They drank bowl after bowl.

They drank the soup so fast that soon the pot was empty.

Chen Yang hadn’t even had a chance to taste it before the two women had finished it all.

After finishing the mushroom soup, they sat chatting for a while about the wild mushrooms, and then Chen Yang rode the electric tricycle to the county town.

He had already harvested the wild mushrooms and needed to deliver them quickly to Caiyun River Fish House; otherwise, they would lose freshness and be harder to sell.

On the way to the county town, Chen Yang’s heart was filled with excitement.

The reason for his excitement was twofold.

First, after all his hard work, he was about to reap the fruits for the first time.

Second was his agreement with the restaurant owner!

Ever since he returned from the fish restaurant with Li Han and the others, Chen Yang had been looking forward to it.

In the past three days, although Chen Yang didn’t show it, it didn’t mean he wasn’t thinking about it.

In fact, he was constantly thinking about it in his mind!

With a heart full of anticipation, Chen Yang naturally sped up his cycling.

He set off at about nine-thirty.

Just past ten o’clock, he arrived at the entrance of the fish restaurant.

It was still early and not yet the opening time for the restaurant, so there were hardly any vehicles in front of its doors, making the area very empty.

It was a world of difference compared to the first time Chen Yang arrived.

Chen Yang casually parked his electric tricycle to one side, then got off and entered the restaurant.

At that moment, many workers inside the restaurant were bustling about.

Those cleaning tables did so, those mopping mopped, each busy with their tasks.

Nobody noticed Chen Yang’s arrival.

Chen Yang glanced around the entire restaurant and did not notice the owner’s presence.

So, he went straight towards the backyard to look for her.

However, as soon as he walked into the restaurant, a worker noticed him.

Thinking that Chen Yang was there to dine, the worker approached with a smile and stopped him, saying, “Sorry, boss, our restaurant hasn’t opened yet.

Could you wait a little while if you want to eat?”

Chen Yang gave the worker a glance and then said, “I’m not here to eat, I’ve come to find your boss!”

“Looking for our boss?” The worker was slightly taken aback.

Chen Yang nodded, “Yes, looking for your boss.”

Seeing that Chen Yang was sure, the worker immediately smiled and pointed to the corridor leading to the backyard, saying, “The boss should be in the backyard doing the accounts.

You can look for her there.”

Chen Yang nodded, then bypassed the worker.

He went directly to the backyard.

Upon reaching the backyard, Chen Yang headed straight for the small bungalow.

Pushing open the door of the bungalow, he saw the owner bent over the table, with her hands on it, washing wild mushrooms.

The owner was wearing a professional pencil skirt today, and she also wore black stockings on her legs.

Looking at the owner’s protruding rear from behind, Chen Yang’s heart was pounding.

He found it hard to shift his gaze away from her shapely bottom and her stocking-clad legs.

But the thought of quickly dealing with the wild mushroom matter so he could do “that” forced him to steady his thoughts and knock on the door.

Thump thump.

The door behind her suddenly resounded with knocks, and the owner immediately stood up straight.

And she turned around.

The owner’s expression was a bit displeased as she turned, but upon seeing Chen Yang, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

“Hey, aren’t you the young man who brought Mr.

Li and the Yang Family heiress to dine here the other day?”

Chen Yang also smiled and then walked in.

“Yes, that was me.”

The owner wiped her hands of the water stains and asked, “What is it, you’ve brought a girl to eat river fish again today?”

“No, I’m not that idle to bring girls here every day to support your business,” Chen Yang said with a smile.

The owner gave a sidelong glance, somewhat puzzled as she said, “If you’re not here to eat, then what are you here for?”

Seeing that the owner seemed to have forgotten their arrangement, Chen Yang was a bit annoyed inside,

but he still reminded her with a smile on his face.

“Mrs.

Owner, have you forgotten what happened last time?” Chen Yang had a teasing smile on his face.

The owner paused for a moment upon hearing his words, then suddenly remembered the agreement she had with Chen Yang.

She covered her mouth and giggled, saying, “If you hadn’t mentioned it, I would have really forgotten.

Are you telling me you’ve got wild mushrooms today?”

Chen Yang nodded with a bit of pride, “That’s right, I’ve brought wild mushrooms for you today.”

Seeing the look of triumph on Chen Yang’s face, the owner felt a jolt of surprise.

She never really believed that Chen Yang could actually get wild mushrooms.

After all, wild mushrooms were very scarce on the market, and restaurants would have to pay exorbitant prices to get them.

Not to mention individuals.

“Where are the wild mushrooms?” Although skeptical, she still asked.

Chen Yang glanced outside and said, “They’re on the car outside.

Do you want to go have a look first?”

“Okay,” the owner replied, sounding unsure as she nodded her head, then followed Chen Yang out of the bungalow and went outside.
