After breakfast, Zhou Ziwen and the Chen sisters went to the production team together.
The threshing ground seemed particularly lively today. Zhou Ziwen listened for a while and found that most of the villagers were talking about Xu Datou and his wife.
Thanks to timely rescue, Xu Datou's wife has been saved. However, she drank pesticide after all, so even if she is saved, there will be some sequelae in the future.
There is nothing we can do about it. Not to mention this era, even in the future, it is impossible for people to recover 100%.
Most villagers expressed regret about this, saying that Xu Datou's wife had married the wrong man.
Of course, there were also some heartless men who gathered together to talk about Xu Datou and the widow.
Zhou Ziwen was quite interested in the widow that Xu Datou had hooked up with. It wasn't that kind of interest, he was just curious about how this widow would get along in the village in the future.
You know, when this happens, no matter whether the village punishes or not, there will be gossip.
He had experienced how powerful the aunties and grandmas in the village were.
During the morning meeting, the team leader brought up this matter with a stern face and severely criticized Xu Datou.
Unfortunately, Xu Datou was still in the county hospital at that time.
Perhaps he had already known that staying in the village would not end well, so he took this opportunity to hide away.
Since the person was not there, there was no point in the team leader scolding him, so he started to get down to business after scolding for a while.
…
After the morning meeting, Zhou Ziwen and the members of the Mushroom Group left together and soon arrived at the Mushroom House.
This batch of mushrooms has been cultivated in the mushroom house for more than ten days. Because of the careful care, these mushrooms have passed the germination stage and entered the physical growth stage.
The white mushroom heads sticking out make people happy at the first sight.
"Brother Zhou, how long will it take for these mushrooms to mature?" Zhou Chaoyang asked curiously.
"According to the current growth rate, it will be mature in two weeks." Zhou Ziwen answered casually.
"So fast?" Zhou Chaoyang opened his eyes wide in surprise.
"Yes, this is all thanks to you." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
In fact, what Zhou Ziwen said was not wrong. If Zhou Chaoyang and others had not monitored these mushrooms around the clock and treated them like treasures, these mushrooms would not have reached the physical stage so quickly.
"Hehe, it's all thanks to Brother Zhou's good teaching." Zhou Chaoyang touched the back of his head and smiled foolishly.
Being able to grow these mushrooms from scratch is a very fulfilling experience.
For him, a child of a large courtyard, there was a sense of novelty that he had never felt before.
This sense of accomplishment was much more exciting than wandering around the city before.
"Study hard. After this batch of mushrooms is cultivated, I believe the scale will continue to expand. You will have the opportunity to contribute in the future." Zhou Ziwen patted his shoulder.
Zhou Ziwen somewhat understood his feelings.
He used to grow up under the aura of his father, and the people he came into contact with were all because of his identity.
This time when he went to the countryside, he suddenly became penniless and had to start from scratch, which made him feel that his life had meaning.
"Yeah." Although it was just a word of encouragement, Zhou Chaoyang felt his blood boiling.
Other educated youth went to the countryside for many years and had to struggle for life, and they might not even have enough to eat every day.
But following Zhou Ziwen, they are fighting for their own ideals, and the pattern and level are suddenly different.
Zhou Ziwen said a few words of encouragement in the mushroom house to cheer everyone up.
Looking at everyone's excited expressions, Zhou Ziwen nodded with satisfaction.
It seems that he has good eloquence, and all the chicken soup he heard in his previous life was not in vain.
After dealing with the matter of the mushroom house, Zhou Ziwen did not stay long. He came out leisurely, preparing to go home first and then go for a walk in the mountains.
Ever since he reached the seventh level of Bajiquan, he hasn't been to the mountains!
With such powerful military force, he also felt eager to try and was ready to go deep into the mountains to see if he could encounter larger prey.
After returning home, Zhou Ziwen packed up a little, carried a backpack and took two sacks. After he was fully prepared, he went out.
Of course, the axe is indispensable, which is his main weapon.
Not long after he went out, Zhou Ziwen saw Erzhuzi and a group of children playing in the fields next to the river.
They were all dirty, and if Zhou Ziwen didn't have an excellent eye, he would hardly be able to recognize who was who.
"Erzhuzi, Zhang Xiaoya, Gangdan, what are you doing?"
Seeing how excited they were, Zhou Ziwen asked curiously.
"Brother Zhou, we are catching loaches, do you want to go?"
Erzhuzi heard the sound and turned around and shouted.
There are a lot of loaches in the countryside, but no one likes to eat them. Only the children like them are greedy and catch the loaches and roast them to eat.
"How many did you catch? Give me some."
Zhou Ziwen asked with a smile.
Loach is a good thing. Others dislike its strong earthy smell, but he doesn't.
With his skills and sufficient seasoning, the loach he makes will definitely be delicious.
But it's not cost-effective. Maybe eating some loaches may not even cover the cost of seasoning.
Fortunately, Zhou Ziwen doesn’t care about these things. As long as the food tastes good, it doesn’t matter if a little seasoning is wasted.
"Brother Zhou, do you want to eat it? This loach is not tasty." Erzhuzi advised kindly.
"It's okay. I'll take it back and keep it for a few days. I'll eat it after the earthy smell is gone." Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Okay then, we'll catch some more and send them to you in the evening." After hearing Zhou Ziwen say this, Erzhuzi stopped persuading him.
"I'll wait for you at home later and fry some glutinous rice balls for you."
Zhou Ziwen didn't want their loaches for nothing, so he prepared some snacks for them.
It just so happened that we had some glutinous rice ball noodles at home, which we had exchanged with some villagers a few days ago. We were going to fry them for Yiyi and the others as snacks.
After saying goodbye to Erzhuzi and the others, Zhou Ziwen continued walking up the mountain.
He came to the mountains familiarly, and would pick some delicious wild vegetables and fruits along the way.
However, there are not many of these things in the periphery, and most of them have been picked by the villagers.
By the time they reached the top of the mountain, Zhou Ziwen's backpack was already half full.
This is the result of his careful selection, otherwise there would be more.
After reaching the top of the mountain, Zhou Ziwen did not stop, but continued to walk down.
This time he planned to go a little further and explore the way first. If he came across anything good, he could pick it at any time.
Generally, no one comes to this mountain. It can be said that as long as he finds something good, it basically belongs to him.
The resources in the mountains were indeed rich. Not long after walking, Zhou Ziwen discovered some good stuff.
This is nothing else but a Ganoderma lucidum.
Perhaps because not many people came, the Ganoderma lucidum he discovered was quite large, as big as a palm.
According to Zhou Ziwen's limited knowledge of herbal medicine, this Ganoderma lucidum has been growing for at least three to five years.
However, Ganoderma lucidum is not very valuable. It would be good if such a big one could be sold for about ten yuan.
Of course, once this thing came into his hands, he definitely wouldn't sell it. (End of this chapter)
