Chapter 61 Try to Drive the Mountain



After Zheng Gan and the other two woke up, they bought some breakfast and took it to the hospital. At this time, Wang Guihua had already woken up and looked a little better than before.

"Xiao Gan."

"Grandma, you need to have a good rest and take care of your health. Only then can you go with your uncle when I get married, right?" Zheng Gan coaxed the old lady.

Wang Guihua originally felt guilty towards Zheng Gan's mother, so now she basically obeyed whatever Zheng Gan said.

After the old lady finished drinking the rice soup and fell asleep, Zheng Gan called out his uncle's family of three.

"Uncle, I saved 10,000 yuan in the hospital. It should be enough for grandma to be discharged. If it's not enough, please tell me."

Jiang Fusheng waved his hand quickly, "It's enough, and we still have some money. Uncle is not capable, so we owe you the money for the surgery. We'll pay you back when Jiang Feng goes out to work and earns money."

"What are you talking about? She is still my grandma. This is what I should do. It is also considered as filial piety to my mother." How could he possibly ask for Jiang Fusheng's money.

Stopping the couple who were about to speak, Zheng Gan turned to Jiang Feng and said, "Little brother, accompany me back to the village to take a look. I haven't been here for so many years. Let my uncle and aunt take care of grandma here."

"Ah?" Jiang Feng was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand what was so good about the village, such a remote and poor place. Then he looked at Jiang Fusheng.

Jiang Fusheng nodded and said, "Go with your brother. It's just right that you can go up the mountain to get some mountain products. When your brother leaves, let him take them with him. Listen to your brother in everything."

Zheng Gan didn't say anything about taking some mountain products back. It would be embarrassing to refuse them again, as they were not valuable things anyway.

After saying goodbye to Jiang Fusheng and his wife, Zheng Gan did not return to the village immediately. Instead, he took Jiang Feng to the shopping mall in the city. He planned to buy some daily necessities to bring back, as the conditions at home were too poor.

"Brother, there's no need to buy it. I've been used to it for so many years." Jiang Feng is very sensible and afraid of spending money.

Zheng Gan glared and immediately showed his brother's authority, "Uncle said, you have to listen to me in everything. Do whatever I tell you to do."

"oh."

He bought a lot of clothes, bedding, food, etc., and also bought two sets of clothes for Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng originally wanted to refute, but Zheng Gan held it back with a look.

I bought too many things, so I had to hire a car to take me back to the village entrance. By the time I got home, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. It was too late and I couldn't pack up, so I had to leave it for the next day.

Wang Guihua's house was indeed a bit messy and it was impossible to sleep there, so Zheng Gan had no choice but to follow Jiang Feng to his house to sleep there for one night.

The next morning, Zheng Gan yawned and came to the yard. Seeing Jiang Feng cooking porridge, he smiled and said,

"Oh, you can cook too."

Jiang Feng said embarrassedly, "I can only cook some simple dishes, brother, just make do with what you have."

The breakfast was not rich, but thoughtful, with a bowl of porridge, two eggs, and homemade salted duck eggs and pickles.

I had a simple meal on the way back last night. Zheng Gan was already hungry after a night, so he finished his breakfast in no time.

After eating, the two went to Wang Guihua's house to clean up and put away the things they bought. This was also the main purpose of Zheng Gan's return. If he didn't say this, his uncle would definitely not let him spend money on buying things anymore.

"Brother, let's go to the mountains in the afternoon." Jiang Feng asked with a satisfied look on his face while eating instant noodles.

I bought instant noodles yesterday to prevent the situation today from happening again. I don’t have much of the ingredients at home, so I can only eat this for lunch.

"Going into the mountains? Are there any good things there?" Zheng Gan became interested now. Picking up things at the beach is called "hai gan", and picking up things in the mountains is called "shan gan".

"Of course there are, but you can't always find them. Usually we pick up mushrooms and fungi like shiitake mushrooms, and occasionally we can pick up Ganoderma lucidum and Dendrobium, making a lot of money. But I've only encountered this once."

As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat by the mountain; live by the water, eat by the water. Things from the mountains can also make people rich. Take Dendrobium for example. It has been hyped up in the past two years and its price has been rising.

In addition to farming, villagers here go up the mountain to pick some mountain products in their spare time to supplement their family income.

"Okay, let's go after we finish eating. We're just sitting around doing nothing anyway."

Zheng Gan planned to stay here for a few days and go back when his grandma's health got better. Anyway, there was not enough time to go back, so he might as well go out and have some fun.

After the two finished their meal, they took their equipment and went into the mountains. Going into the mountains, like going into the sea, requires equipment, and some mountain products cannot be picked with bare hands.

"Brother, I'll walk in front and you follow behind me. Be careful with your steps." There are still certain dangers in the mountains. Sometimes accidents can easily happen if you are not careful. Jiang Feng is a veteran and is leading the way in front.

Zheng Gan nodded. He would not show off at this time. After walking for a while, he suddenly opened the map out of curiosity and became excited in an instant.

A red dot actually appeared on the map. He had previously subconsciously thought that the map would only help him when he was at sea, so he would turn off the map every time he came ashore.

He just opened it out of curiosity, but who would have thought that it was the same as in the sea. It seems that maps are not only useful in the sea.

"Little brother, wait a moment." Zheng Gan called out to Jiang Feng.

"What's wrong, bro?"

Jiang Feng stopped curiously, and then saw Zheng Gan picking up a few mushrooms from a pile of grass.

"Haha, brother, you are so lucky, I didn't even see it."

Just a few mushrooms, not worthy of Jiang Feng's surprise, because it was Zheng Gan's first time to go up the mountain, and it was all thanks to luck.

But what happened next shocked and even horrified him.

Every once in a while, Zheng Gan would stop and pick up something, such as mushrooms or other fungi, and even an unripe small Ganoderma lucidum, but he didn't pick it because it was too small.

"Gulp." Jiang Feng swallowed his saliva, "Brother, have you ever driven a mountain before?"

"No, this is my first time and it's quite fun." Zheng Gan didn't even raise his head. He squatted on the ground, picked up the mushrooms, and threw them into the basket on his back.

"Then what's going on with you?" Jiang Feng was even more surprised to hear that he hadn't driven over the mountain. "I didn't see you picking up any of these."

"Oh, you mean these mountain products? When I was at home, I went to the sea to catch things every day. They were similar to what I caught in the mountains, so I got the hang of it quickly." Zheng Gan replied casually because he had already found a large area of ​​big red dots.

"Brother, come and see what this is?"

Jiang Feng looked in the direction Zheng Gan pointed and screamed instantly.

"Oh my god, this... this... this is actually a rare insect dendrobium! We're going to be rich, bro!!"
