However, in 1988, the people in the mountains had not yet escaped poverty. No matter how delicious the fungi were, they could not compete with food.

Especially for mountain people, who have been eating it since childhood, they don’t think it’s rare.

City people are quite happy to eat it, but the entire territory of Yuncheng produces mushrooms.

Nowadays, the tourism and commerce economy has not yet developed. Self-produced and sold, supply exceeds demand. The local market price of mushrooms is often only a few cents per kilogram.

The matsutake mushrooms admired by gringos, commonly known as big flower mushrooms, have such a smell that even people in their village don't bother to take a second look at them.

A few slices of truffles in Western restaurants can cost tens of thousands, but here they are fed to pigs, also known as pig truffles.

Once the pigs were released on the mountain, they would huddle under the pine trees and eat them.

In the early 1990s, the export trade of truffles and matsutake became large-scale. Later, in this little-known mountain village, because matsutake could not be cultivated artificially, many outsiders came to buy the mushrooms.

The purchase price given to them by outsiders is a few yuan per catty, and the price sold to exporters is tens of dollars per catty. However, when exported to foreign countries, the price can reach hundreds or thousands of dollars.

The high profits, coupled with China's gradually increasing export volume, have affected the interests of other countries. Although the price has plummeted, it has not affected their reputation in the country.

By 2022, domestic matsutake and truffle merchants are aggressively marketing. After truffles and matsutake appeared at state banquets and delicacies on the tip of the tongue, and became famous, domestic matsutake and truffles are no longer limited to exports, and domestic sales are also strong.

The people in the village relied on the mountains and made some money.

Because he is paralyzed, the only labor force in the family is his wife. She has to take care of her and the children, as well as go to the mountains to collect mushrooms. Therefore, compared to other families, the money they earn can only slightly improve their lives and ensure that their son goes to school.

, and bought him an expensive wheelchair so that he could no longer be resigned to staying in bed.

It is now 1988. Their Junhua Village is located in Caixia Town. It is located in a remote place and no one buys matsutake and truffles yet.

But he believed that there must already be a buying point for matsutake and truffles in Yun City.

It's a long journey, and the best shelf life of matsutake and truffles is only three days. It takes him five hours to walk to Caixia Town. The passenger bus to Yuncheng only leaves once a day, and it's often not crowded. If he takes the mushrooms into the city, he must

Have to think of a way.

While thinking of a way to avoid attracting attention, he quickly cleaned the fungi.

After he got a wheelchair in his previous life, the kitchen was all his.

He cooks delicious dishes that the whole family loves to eat.

A rooster is very big. He cuts it in half. One half is used for stew and the other half is used for stir-frying.

The rich and delicious fragrance soon penetrated into the nostrils of Sun Miaolan and Xiao Yu'er. Xiao Yu'er kept pointing at the chicken in the pot and clapped her hands excitedly, "Eat me. Eat."

When he was just learning to speak, his mouth was full of white teeth and he was also dripping with laughter.

Sun Miaolan smiled beautifully.

She scratched the little fish's nose and said, "I'll have something to eat soon, and you're indispensable, little glutton."

Jiang Ancheng raised his eyes and saw this scene, his heart was filled with happiness, "Go and sit down, we are ready to serve the meal."

"good."

The steaming hot meal was brought to the table. It was obviously the same fungus, but it was especially delicious today.

Sun Miaolan put the chicken legs into his and Xiao Yu'er's bowls. Jiang Ancheng quietly changed the bowls and said, "Xiao Yu'er was born small. The second treasure can't be like this. You need to eat more."

Sun Miaolan looked at him with a low eyebrow, unable to hide the happiness on her face, "Okay."

The chicken soup was very delicious, but the little fish didn't like soup. Sun Miaolan didn't dissuade her. She picked up the bowl herself and drank a big bowl.

Jiang Ancheng took a bite of the crispy pickled radish and then said: "After dinner, I will go find Mr. Li to repair the house." He then said in a consultative tone: "Let's repair a small one first, and after a while, we will build a house."

Build a big one."

Sun Miaolan doesn't care whether it's big or small. As long as it rains without water leaking and robbers can't get in, she'll be satisfied.

She smiled and said, "It's all up to you."

The little fish was full and was running around. The little man, with great strength, carried a dustpan of mushrooms that Sun Miaolan had dried yesterday, and brought them to them like a treasure. He pointed to the chicken stewed mushrooms in the basin with his little finger, and then

He said three words in succession, "Eat, eat, eat, daddy."

I mean I want to eat chicken stewed with mushrooms in the future.

Jiang Ancheng saw the fungus in the dustpan, rubbed the little fish's round head, and said with a smile: "Well, eat, the little fish wants to eat it anytime, let's eat it, and eat it with an open belly."

Seeing him coaxing the children, Sun Miaolan also felt happy, and she was glad that she was finally able to see the moonlight after the clouds cleared.

The little fish was very satisfied with what his father said, so he put down the dustpan again and ran out to play.

Sun Miaolan rushed to clear away the dishes, while Jiang Ancheng picked out a half-dried piece of matsutake from the dustpan and asked, "Where did you find this?"

Sun Miaolan looked back and was a little surprised that Jiang Ancheng often ran into the mountains and didn't know where the giant flower fungus was.

Jiang Ancheng often goes to the mountains, but Sun Miaolan at home likes to eat chicken fungus the most. He also likes to eat hand greens the most. He doesn't pay attention to things that even pigs despise.

She didn't think much about it, "There are quite a few of them in the shade of the hillside behind our house."

Jiang Ancheng smiled and said, "Then I'll go take a look later."

Truffles can only be dug in winter. He can raise a dog in advance, watch the house and train it to find truffles.

It was the season for matsutake mushrooms, and he had to work hard to make a lot of money now.

Sun Miaolan asked subconsciously, "What are you doing with it? No one will eat it."

There are so many mushrooms here that no one in the village wants them.

That is to say, their family had little land and were afraid of not having enough food to eat, so she picked up mushrooms and dried them in the sun to eat in the winter.

Jiang Ancheng found a random reason, "I went to town and saw someone collecting this kind of fungus. It seems to be quite valuable. If I can sell it for a good price, it will be much better than risking hunting."

Sun Miaolan frowned, feeling unbelievable, "There are these big fungi all over the mountains and plains. How can we sell them at a good price? Don't be fooled. Let's make more backpacks. You teach me and I'll learn it, so I don't have to go hunting."

Already."

For restaurants in the town, people go to the mountains to collect the mushrooms themselves. If people from the city come to collect the mushrooms, they are unlikely to come to Caixia Town to collect the mushrooms. Even if they do, several towns ahead of them should have enough to collect.

Jiang Ancheng would go hunting in the mountains for several days every time. She was always worried and didn't want him to go there for a long time.

Jiang Ancheng shook his head, "It doesn't cost anything to try it. If it doesn't work, I will teach you how to make bamboo strips at home."

In the future, I can make money by making flower baskets. I definitely can’t let go of this craft.

On this trip to the city, he could also see if the flower market was developed.

After all, if you have known the business for many years, it will definitely be easier to get into the industry.

In her previous life, Sun Miaolan's biggest dream was to open a flower shop.

With Jiang Ancheng's consent, Sun Miaolan said happily: "Okay, then I will go dig the fungi with you."

"Don't go, just discuss repairing the house with Lao Li at home. If you have any additional requirements, they will be implemented one by one."

"But what if they know we have money to repair the house and they start making trouble again?" She was worried that under the pressure from Jiang's father and mother, Jiang Ancheng would still be soft-hearted.

"Don't be afraid, the money is in our pockets, even if the King of Heaven comes, I won't be able to take it away!"

Jiang Ancheng's eyes were firm, and Sun Miaolan seemed to have received a reassurance. As long as he was not soft-hearted, she would not be afraid no matter how poor he was.
