Workshop 3 is an area in the mushroom cultivation base specifically used for growing straw mushrooms.
Straw mushrooms are a type of edible fungus with a short growth cycle and high yield, making them very suitable for large-scale cultivation. After a period of careful cultivation, the straw mushrooms in Workshop 3 are ready for harvest.
Zhou Ziwen and Wu Dagang arrived at Workshop 3 and saw rows of neatly arranged mushroom racks, with straw mushrooms thriving. Each mushroom blossomed like a small umbrella, emitting an enticing aroma.
"Ziwen, these straw mushrooms are growing really well." Wu Dagang looked at the scene in front of him and nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, the straw mushrooms are growing very well this time, and the yield should be higher than expected." Zhou Ziwen also smiled.
His mushroom growing skill has reached level nine, close to level ten.
In one more day, the mushroom growing skill will officially reach level ten.
At his level, there is no one before him, if not more than him.
With his skills, he could definitely establish his own school and recruit many disciples.
Of course, Zhou Ziwen is not interested in doing such a thing.
There is nothing wrong with teaching everyone in Dabazi Village how to grow mushrooms and improving the villagers' lives.
"Ziwen, you take care of the harvest!" Wu Dagang said.
Zhou Ziwen is the leader of the Mushroom Group, so he shouldn't try to steal the spotlight.
"good."
Zhou Ziwen was not polite and gathered the members of the Mushroom Group on the spot and assigned them tasks.
"Everyone, pay attention. Today we are going to harvest the straw mushrooms in workshop three." Zhou Ziwen's voice echoed in the workshop, and all team members listened carefully.
"You need to be careful when picking straw mushrooms. Don't use too much force to avoid damaging the cap," Zhou Ziwen said as he demonstrated the correct picking method. "Look, just twist it gently like this and the straw mushroom will come off."
The team members observed carefully, then nodded in understanding. They had all been trained by Zhou Ziwen and were familiar with the harvesting techniques.
"Okay, now let's start dividing into groups." Zhou Ziwen began assigning tasks. "Zhou Chaoyang, you lead a team responsible for the mushroom racks on the east side; Chen Qiaoyi, you lead a team responsible for the mushroom racks on the west side; Wu Fu, you lead a team responsible for the middle..."
"Team leader, don't worry! This isn't our first time harvesting, and we'll definitely complete the mission."
Several team leaders looked confident.
"Okay, let's get started!"
Zhou Ziwen waved his hand.
With Zhou Ziwen's order, the harvesting work officially began.
The team members acted quickly, moving between the mushroom racks and picking mature straw mushrooms skillfully.
The rustling sound of picking fruits echoed through the workshop, accompanied by the quiet conversations among the team members, creating a particularly harmonious atmosphere. Zhou Ziwen patrolled the workshop, offering guidance and assistance from time to time.
"Ziwen, look at this straw mushroom, it's growing so well, it's big and bright in color." Wu Dagang picked up a straw mushroom and couldn't help but admire it.
"Yes, Uncle Wu." Zhou Ziwen nodded. "This is thanks to everyone's careful care, and it's also inseparable from your support."
"Haha, I just help run errands and offer some advice."
Wu Dagang smiled and waved his hand, "The real credit goes to you, the people working on the front lines."
The two smiled at each other and then turned their attention back to the harvest.
As time went by, baskets of straw mushrooms were picked and neatly placed aside.
"Everyone has worked hard, let's take a break." Seeing that the work had been going on for a while, Zhou Ziwen asked everyone to take a break.
The team members put down their tools, sat together, drank water, wiped sweat, and enjoyed a short break.
"Ziwen, how many kilograms of mushrooms do you think we can harvest this time?"
During the break, Wu Dagang asked expectantly.
"It's about the same as the last batch! There must be 40,000 kilograms."
Zhou Ziwen answered without thinking.
These mushrooms were all grown under his leadership.
He knew exactly how many kilograms it weighed.
It is said to be 40,000 kilograms, but it is actually an understatement.
When Wu Dagang heard this figure, his eyes lit up: "Forty thousand kilograms! That's a lot! This will increase the village's income significantly."
"Yes, countless. We have made so much money this year, we must kill a few more pigs during the New Year!" Zhou Ziwen said with a smile.
"Haha, of course I've thought it through. This year, apart from the pigs we have to hand in, we'll keep the rest and distribute the meat to everyone during the New Year."
Wu Dagang waved his hand generously.
When Wu Dagang mentioned that pork would be distributed during the Chinese New Year, the surrounding Mushroom Group members were immediately attracted by the news.
They surrounded Wu Dagang and Zhou Ziwen, their faces filled with excitement and smiles.
"Secretary Wu, is this true? Can we get pork for the Chinese New Year this year?" a team member asked excitedly.
"Of course it's true. We made money from growing mushrooms this year. Everyone has worked hard for a year, so naturally we have to reward them well." Wu Dagang replied with a smile.
He looked at the excited expressions of the mushroom team members and felt very happy.
This proves that his efforts were not in vain.
"That's great! The children will be so happy to have meat to eat during the New Year!" said a team member who is already a mother excitedly.
At this moment, she had already begun to imagine the smiles on the faces of her children at home.
"Yes, this is really good news. I must work hard and plant more mushrooms so that I can get more meat during the New Year." Another team member also said.
"Thanks to the team leader, if he hadn't led us to grow mushrooms, our lives wouldn't be so good." A team member looked at Zhou Ziwen with emotion, his eyes full of gratitude.
Zhou Ziwen was moved by the villagers' excitement. "Don't thank me. This is what we should do. As long as we unite as one, the future of Dabazi Village will be even better."
"Yes, Ziwen is right! Our Dabazi Village will definitely get better and better." Wu Dagang also echoed, his voice revealing determination and heroism.
The news quickly spread among the crowd, and the entire workshop was filled with laughter.
After the rest, everyone started working hard at harvesting again.
While the villagers were busy with their work, they were also excitedly discussing their plans for the New Year.
"My family is going to make braised pork and dumplings. Now that we have meat, we must have a good New Year." A team member has already started planning the menu for the New Year's Eve dinner.
"My son loves sweet and sour pork ribs the most, and this time he can eat as much as he wants." Another team member said happily.
Zhou Ziwen felt extremely relieved when he saw everyone's excitement.
The villagers’ request is actually very simple, it’s just to eat more meat.
With the mushroom cultivation base, he believed that this requirement would not be difficult.
The harvesting work went smoothly amid laughter and joy.
As basket after basket of straw mushrooms were picked, the number of straw mushrooms in the workshop gradually decreased, and the straw mushrooms piled on the side formed a small hill.
"Everyone, please be careful with the straw mushrooms you've picked. We're ready to pack them."
Zhou Ziwen reminded everyone to ensure that every step is done with care to ensure the quality of the straw mushrooms.
The team members started packing according to Zhou Ziwen's instructions.
They carefully placed the mushrooms in baskets, placing straw between each layer to prevent damage during transportation. (End of this chapter)
