For the two days after he returned, he kept thinking about one thing.
The question is whether I should continue growing mushrooms or venture south.
It was 1992, a time when opportunities abounded and wealth was everywhere; it was a golden age where you could make money doing anything.
Is it still necessary for me to stay in this remote mountain valley?
But after thinking about it for a long time, he decided to stay in his hometown.
On the one hand, he truly loves this land, and loves it deeply.
In 1992, the sky over the Yimeng Mountains was blue, the water was green, and even the air was sweet and fresh.
He loves everything about this place and enjoys this carefree, slow-paced life.
In short, having been given a second chance at life, we should live each day slowly and savor every moment.
On the other hand, growing mushrooms is actually a very good way to get rich.
Oyster mushrooms were introduced to China in the 1980s and gradually became a staple on people's tables.
However, it takes a long time for information to travel from first-tier cities to remote mountainous areas like the Yimeng Mountains.
He still remembers that the first time he ate mushrooms in his previous life was in the late 1980s.
The first bite was enough to win me over with its tender and fresh texture.
In an era when meat was unaffordable, tender and delicious mushrooms were incredibly tasty.
Therefore, mushrooms are a really good and somewhat novel product.
Of course, there is an even more important reason besides that.
That is, in the first half of this year, the government gradually relaxed price controls on food such as vegetables and meat.
In the following years, the prices of food such as mushrooms and vegetables soared, and growers in related industries made a fortune.
Therefore, after being reborn, he not only wants to continue growing mushrooms, but also to expand the scale and catch up with the trend of the times.
Take off with the momentum!!
...
These past two days, Li Weidong has been staying at home and hasn't gone out, but his aunt's family is not so calm.
She originally thought that Li Weidong would not be able to hold on for more than a day and would come to beg them for help.
But a day passed, two days passed, three days passed...
The mushrooms in their shed are getting older day by day.
How could they not be anxious?
"That damn Li Weidong, how can he be so calm? The mushrooms in our shed are getting old, and in a few days, we won't be able to sell them." Wang Dahua stood in the yard, pacing anxiously.
"Alright, stop shaking me!!" Zhao Shunqiang was dizzy from her shaking: "What did I tell you before? I told you not to mess with him, I told you not to mess with him. Now that he really doesn't want our mushrooms anymore, let's see who you sell them to."
"Bullshit!" Wang Dahua glared at Zhao Shunqiang angrily. "Who was it that told me to go and collect the money back then? Now you're giving me hindsight advice?"
"I'm not just offering hindsight advice, so what do you think we should do with these mushrooms?"
"I..." Wang Dahua opened her mouth, but she had no way to do anything.
Just then, Tiger rushed in from outside in a panic.
As he ran, he shouted, "Li Weidong is here! Li Weidong is here!!!"
"They're here??" Wang Dahua's face lit up with joy.
"Yes, that's right. I saw him leave the house and head straight in this direction!"
"I knew this kid would come begging to us!" Hearing her son's words, Wang Dahua felt confident, and her worry was replaced by a smile. "Let's go, we'll wait for him at the alley entrance. But let's make it clear, the price is firm: eighty cents a pound, not a penny less!!!"
