Yang Qian's embrace was very warm. After hugging for a while, she might also feel that something was wrong, so she blushed and said, "Puppyyouyou go out, I will change clothes."
After Yang Qian changed her clothes again, she sat on the bedside with Zhou Xiao.
Yang Qian looked sad. Even if Butcher Chen got cancer, he would not die for a while. Now that he has offended Butcher Chen, the two of them will have a hard time in the village.
It may also be difficult for Yang Qian to work in the leather shoe factory in the town.
Zhou Xiao knows that in the final analysis, there will be money.
If you have money, you can go to university and stay away from this ignorant and backward village.
If Yang Qian had money, she could also escape the countryside and live in the county town.
Zhou Xiao stood up and said: "Sister Qian, you should go to bed early. Don't worry, Butcher Chen doesn't dare to come again. I'll hit him every time he comes!"
"Thank you puppy!" Yang Qian glanced at Zhou Xiao gratefully, then took out two hundred dollars from her bag.
"I didn't give you anything when I came back this time. You can use the money to buy some food! Last time I told you about taking the college entrance examination in the name of a social candidate, you can really think about it!"
Zhou Xiao smiled wryly and did not accept the money, and said, "Sister Qian, I'm going back first, you work very hard in the factory, so keep the money."
"Oh, take it!" Yang Qian stuffed two hundred yuan into Zhou Xiao's arms, and Zhou Xiao no longer refused.
It is of course feasible to take the college entrance examination in the name of social candidates. But today the registration period for the college entrance examination has ended, and Zhou Xiao couldn't even get together the registration fee at that time, so how could he register.
The wish of the university is definitely impossible to realize.
Zhou Xiao, who returned home, had a sleepless night, thinking about how to make money and how to get rid of his current situation.
Zhou Xiao now has some special abilities. In addition to being able to see the inside of objects through the surface, he feels that there is some mysterious aura on his body. This aura can activate dead cells and make them grow again. But how can he use such abilities? make money
Zhou Xiao turned this mysterious atmosphere into spiritual power.
He thought that when his grandfather Zhou Tiezhu was alive, apart from chopping firewood in the mountains and collecting herbs for sale, the biggest income of the family was picking mushrooms in the mountains and selling them after the heavy rain.
Although Qingxia Village is backward, it has a good natural environment, which is very suitable for the growth of mushrooms.
Among all kinds of mushrooms, matsutake has the highest price!
If the rain is good that year and the output of matsutake is relatively high, then the price will be relatively low, and good quality (5-7 cm) can be sold for five to six hundred yuan per kilogram.
However, if the rain is not good or there is drought, the matsutake will not be able to grow, and the price is expensive, and it can be sold for two to three thousand yuan per kilogram. The top-quality matsutake (without an umbrella above 9-12 cm) is even rarer and more expensive!
?It is hot and dry this year, and matsutake is rarely produced in Qingxia Village and the nearby forests, so the price should be relatively expensive.
Thinking of this, Zhou Xiao's heart moved!
He has followed his grandfather to pick mountain products since he was a child, and he knows that where matsutake grows this year, if it is not destroyed the next year, matsutake will still grow nearby.
So can you use your special ability to make the matsutake that sleeps in the ground grow out?
Just do what you say.
The next day, Zhou Xiao went out early in the morning to the back mountain forest of the village.
Today is a severe drought, the creeks in the mountains have dried up, and many trees are dead. The water for planting seedlings in the village is transported from distant rivers.
Zhou Xiao found the place where the matsutake was dug a few years ago, and concentrated on checking everything around him.
There are some red ants crawling under the dead leaves. This kind of ants have deep caves and are relatively drought-tolerant. At this time, they are moving the ladybugs that have been dying of thirst.
The seeds of withered grass lie quietly in the dry soil, waiting for a rain to germinate.
did not see spores of the strain
Zhou Xiao continued to search carefully, and finally felt the spores of matsutake under a dead tree, which had a special smell of matsutake.
The spores are hidden deep in the dead tree pockets under drought, and there are termite ant paths in the tree pockets, but termites do not come out because of the hot weather.
Zhou Xiao poured the water in the kettle on the dead tree, and the matsutake spores received the water.
However, this little moisture and the current climate conditions are simply not enough for matsutake to grow.
Zhou Xiao needs to use his spiritual power!
He stroked the roots of the dead tree with his hands, injecting spiritual power into the matsutake spores deep in the roots.
Spores feel spiritual power as if bathed in the water of life! soon?Strung out from the dead tree roots and the dirt that covered it.
The matsutake cells are growing and proliferating crazily
One centimeter, two centimeters The matsutake grew to 15 centimeters, and under Zhou Xiao's control, it still didn't open the umbrella!
If Zhou Xiao continued to inject spiritual power, matsutake would still grow.
Zhou Xiao stopped. He felt that his ability was still insufficient. After the matsutake grew, it consumed about one-fifth of Zhou Xiao's spiritual power.
Zhou Xiao took a breath, he still needs to find a way to make his abilities stronger.
Zhou Xiao pulled out the matsutake, which weighed heavily on his hand!
Zhou Xiao, who is familiar with mountain goods, decided that this is the best! The matsutake watered by spiritual power is much more exquisite than those artificially grown in the woods!
Zhou Xiao hadn't eaten breakfast at this time, so he simply picked up a pile of firewood, then wrapped matsutake with a thin tree, and roasted it slowly over a small fire.
After more than ten minutes, the matsutake was roasted, and the juice in the body came out. After touching the fire, it turned into water mist with a "chuck", emitting an incomparable fragrance that strongly stimulated Zhou Xiao's taste buds.
Zhou Xiao swallowed his saliva and took a bite!
The juice mixed with the delicious taste touches the whole mouth, which greatly satisfies the taste buds' demand for delicious food.
No salt, no oil, but this is the most delicious taste.
Many birds and hungry hares in the mountains and forests came out of the hiding place looking for the smell.
Zhou Xiao picked up a stone and waved it at the hare.
Snapped!
The hare died after being hit, and it happened to be an extra meal for Zhou Xiao's breakfast.
After eating, Zhou Xiao also made up his mind to pay attention.
Sell ??matsutake!
The current spiritual power can probably support the growth and development of a catty and a half of matsutake per day.
If the market price of matsutake is good now, one day's income can equal Yang Qian's salary in a shoe factory for one or two months.
However, matsutake is best sold on the day it is collected on the day it is collected, even if it is stored, it needs a lot of ice cubes to cool it down.
Zhou Xiao doesn't even have a refrigerator at home, let alone ice cubes.
So he can only come to collect it early tomorrow morning, and then go to the market in the town to sell it.
Near noon, Zhou Xiao also returned home.
Far away, Zhou Xiao saw that his residence was surrounded by many people.
The leader is Butcher Chen, and the others, Zhou Xiao, are also familiar. They are workers in the village slaughterhouse.
Most of them are outsiders, and many of them are social hooligans.
People came in and out of Zhou Xiao's house, lifted out all the few and worthless furniture in the house, and threw it on the ground and smashed it to pieces.
