Chapter 18 It’s late at night and no one has come back yet?



Facing the mother's question.

Cai Junze: “…”

For a moment, he couldn't answer.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Mom, these are two different things, not the same thing. You can't compare them like this."

Liu Shulin snorted and said, "Anyway, that's all I have to say. Whether you listen or not is up to you!"

After that, she was too lazy to waste words with him.

It is obviously useless to say too much.

Since he believes in his luck so much, let him verify it!

The next day.

Cai Junze went to Lufang Village and told Yuan Xiao'e about how he had earned seven taels of silver from selling Ganoderma lucidum. He then said, "Xiao'e, see! I made seven taels of silver just by selling it! Earning your betrothal gift money won't be difficult! I think it won't be long before I can earn enough to marry you!"

"Brother Junze is so awesome!" Yuan Xiao'e's eyes lit up when she heard him say that he had made money.

Cai Junze looked high-spirited and a little proud. He smiled and said, "I told you, I can make money by myself!"

Yuan Xiao'e said, "It's just that it's still quite a distance from the betrothal gift our family requires."

Cai Junze stretched out his hand, tapped her forehead, and said, "If I can earn the first seven taels, I can definitely earn the second and third seven taels! Even more seven taels! Xiao E, just wait, I will soon earn enough, and then I will marry you home in glory!"

Yuan Xiao'e was still a little worried. She looked at him and said, "Brother Junze, what if, after you've earned enough, your mother still objects to us being together?"

Cai Junze said, "Don't worry, my mother always keeps her word. Since she said that as long as I can earn enough money to marry you, she won't stop us, then she will definitely not stop us."

Yuan Xiao'e frowned slightly and said, "But, she agreed to our marriage last time, but later changed her mind..."

Cai Junze: “…”

He really didn't know how to say this.

After all, my mother did change her mind for no apparent reason.

However, he still said some comforting words.

After chatting with her for a while, he said, "Well, I have to go to the mountains. I'll tell you if there's any good news."

Yuan Xiao'e nodded, her eyes suddenly twinkling, and said, "How about I go with you?"

Cai Junze quickly waved his hands and said, "That won't work. It's not safe in the mountains. I can go by myself!"

Then he went to the mountains alone.

However, after a whole day of searching, I didn't gain anything.

On the way back, I met Zou Guandong on the road.

Zou Guandong asked him, "Cai Junze, why are you in the mountains?"

Cai Junze naturally wouldn't tell him that he was looking for Ganoderma lucidum or some valuable herbs. He smiled and said, "Uncle Zou, didn't I tell you yesterday that I wanted to learn hunting from you? Since you didn't want to take me with you, I'll just wander around the mountains by myself and see if I can come across any prey and bring it back."

Hearing this, Zou Guandong laughed and said, "With the way you're spinning, you have no tools, and no practice, what kind of prey can you catch? I'm telling you, do you want to eat some game? If you want to eat game, tell me! I'll catch it for you, and you can buy it from me at the market price. No problem at all!"

Cai Junze said hurriedly: "That's not the case. I've just been interested in hunting recently and want to experience the joy of catching prey!"

Zou Guandong suddenly realized and said, "You rich people are different. We hunt for a living, but you hunt just for fun."

As he spoke, he sighed and said, "I advise you not to wander around in this mountain. The outer circle is fine, there are no ferocious birds or beasts. If you go deeper, it will be dangerous."

"You, don't throw your life away for fun. You're the only son in your family. If anything happens to you, won't your mother be heartbroken?"

He said this to Cai Junze out of kindness.

After all, the mountains are really dangerous!

Cai Junze touched his nose, smiled nonchalantly, and said, "I know, I know my limits. Thank you, Uncle Zou, for the reminder."

Back home.

Liu Shulin asked him, "Did you gain anything today?"

Cai Junze said awkwardly: "Uh, nothing much."

Liu Shulin glanced at him and said, "Didn't you say you were blessed by luck? How come you've been wandering around in the mountains all day and haven't gained anything?"

Cai Junze was a little embarrassed, with a bitter smile on his face, and said: "Even if you are blessed by luck, it is impossible to pick up Ganoderma lucidum every day! If you can pick it up every few days, it will be great."

In the next few days, Cai Junze went into the mountains every day and visited several hills, but he didn't gain anything.

"How about we go deeper and take a look?"

Standing on a high place, looking at the deep mountains and old forests in the distance where few people go, he wanted to go for a walk.

This kind of place where not many people go may contain many treasures!

Thinking that he might be able to pick up Ganoderma lucidum anywhere, he became a little tempted.

That's all money!

If I pick up more, maybe I can earn enough money to marry Xiao E!

However, thinking about the possible danger, he was a little hesitant.

However, he had explored all the hills outside and found nothing. He couldn't keep wandering around outside, could he? It felt like no matter how much he wandered, he wouldn't be able to pick up any Ganoderma...

This night.

Cai Junze didn't come back until very late.

Seeing that her son was not coming back for a long time, Liu Shulin couldn't help but panic.

Could this brat have gotten into trouble in the mountains?

Unable to sit still any longer, she immediately left and went to the village to find the village chief. She told him that her son had gone to the mountains and had never returned.
