After a morning of hard work, all the straw mushrooms in workshop three were finally picked.
All the straw mushrooms in Workshop 3 were finally picked, and Zhou Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everyone has done a good job. It's almost noon. Let's pack up and leave work early. We can do the rest in the afternoon." Zhou Ziwen said to everyone.
"Long live the team leader."
"Yeah, time to get off work."
…
As soon as Zhou Ziwen said this, the members of the Mushroom Group immediately cheered.
"Uncle Wu, you can arrange for someone to come and deliver the mushrooms this afternoon."
Turning around, Zhou Ziwen said to Wu Dagang.
"Okay, I'll call someone over after dinner."
Wu Dagang nodded and said.
Now that all the mushrooms have been picked, he wants to ship them out as soon as possible.
The midday sun shines through the windows of workshop three, onto faces filled with smiles.
Zhou Ziwen and his team members packed up a bit and prepared to finish their morning work.
"Uncle Wu, you should go back quickly too. You have been busy all afternoon." Zhou Ziwen said.
"Then I'll come again in the afternoon." Wu Dagang said with a smile.
He harvested so many mushrooms today and he couldn't stop smiling.
"Sister, what are we going to eat for lunch today?" Chen Qiaoyi asked expectantly on the way home.
"How about eating fish? We haven't finished yesterday's fish yet." Chen Shiying asked.
Now my younger sister is the focus of attention in the family.
Chen Shiying and Zhou Ziwen would try their best to satisfy whatever she wanted to eat.
Chen Qiaoyi's eyes lit up and she nodded excitedly: "Okay, okay, yesterday's fish was delicious, I want to eat more."
"Okay, let's continue eating fish today." Chen Shiying smiled and touched her sister's head.
"It's easy to eat fish. I'll go fishing tomorrow when I'm free."
Zhou Ziwen laughed on the side.
"Brother Ziwen, don't bother. We still have plenty of fish at home! And you'll get tired of eating fish every day."
Chen Qiaoyi said hurriedly.
"Okay then! I'll go to the county town tomorrow and buy some pork to eat!"
Zhou Ziwen nodded, thinking that his family had not eaten pork for a long time, and decided to improve the taste.
He is a little tired of eating wild game at home every day during this period.
Moreover, he was planning to take the herbs he had dug up before to the county town to see if he could sell them for a good price.
"Okay, okay, pork is good. I want to eat shredded pork with fish flavor!" Chen Qiaoyi clapped her hands in agreement.
Chen Shiying also smiled and nodded: "We haven't bought pork for a while, it would be nice to buy some back."
"Okay, then I'll buy it tomorrow." Zhou Ziwen nodded.
There are still some meat coupons at home, so buying some pork is not a problem.
However, Zhou Ziwen still decided to go to the black market to buy some tickets when he had time.
You can get some things like sugar coupons, cloth coupons, meat coupons, etc.
As they were talking, they had already returned home.
After arriving home, Zhou Ziwen and Chen Shiying began to prepare lunch.
He heated up the leftover fish from yesterday and stir-fried some fresh vegetables, and a simple but delicious lunch was soon ready.
After lunch, the three of them took a short break and then started their afternoon work.
By the time they arrived at the mushroom cultivation base, almost all the team members had arrived.
Wu Dagang also brought some villagers to transport mushrooms.
The arrival of the villagers made the mushroom cultivation base lively.
The villagers brought baskets and carts, ready to load the picked straw mushrooms for transportation.
"Everyone, be careful and don't crush the mushrooms." Wu Dagang was directing from the side, fearing that some villagers would be careless and damage the mushrooms.
The members of the mushroom group worked together with the villagers to pack the straw mushrooms into baskets and then placed the baskets on the cart.
"Zhou Zhiqing, is the mushroom harvest another good one this time?" a villager asked expectantly.
Zhou Ziwen smiled and nodded. "Of course, this batch of mushrooms is quite a lot. It must be a bumper harvest. Once Accountant Zhu calculates the weight, everyone will know how many kilograms there are."
After hearing what Zhou Ziwen said, the villagers became more motivated.
In their eyes, these mushrooms are money!
With everyone's joint efforts, the straw mushrooms were quickly loaded onto the truck.
Wu Dagang led his men to check and after confirming that nothing was missing, they prepared to set off.
"Ziwen, I'm going with them, do you want to come?"
Before leaving, Wu Dagang asked.
"Uncle Wu, I won't go. It's enough for you to go." Zhou Ziwen shook his head.
He estimated that if he went to the commune, he would probably have to communicate with those leaders for a while.
For him, it would be better to stay at home than to communicate with the leaders of the commune.
"Haha, I knew you would say that." Wu Dagang pointed at Zhou Ziwen.
"hey-hey!"
Zhou Ziwen didn't say anything, just chuckled twice.
By the time the members of the production team pushed the carts away, Zhou Ziwen had finished his work.
He said hello to the two sisters and then went home leisurely.
As for the weight of today's batch of mushrooms, Zhu Youde is still counting and the results are estimated to be out tomorrow.
In fact, he knew exactly how many kilograms of mushrooms there were. Zhu Youde showed the data he collected to Wu Dagang and the team leader.
After returning home, Zhou Ziwen went to the kitchen next door.
He has used the kitchen here as a warehouse to store medicinal herbs.
He was going to sort out the herbs he had dug earlier.
Then take it to the county town tomorrow to see what the market is like.
In the warehouse, herbs are neatly stacked on shelves.
These herbs were all dug up by him in the mountains.
Some were dug while hunting, and some were dug specifically in the mountains.
Zhou Ziwen picked up some herbs and selected them carefully.
"These astragalus roots look pretty good. The roots are thick and long, and the skin is yellow and translucent. They should be able to sell for a good price." Zhou Ziwen looked at the astragalus in his hand and estimated in his mind.
He looked at other herbs, such as angelica, white peony root, Chuanxiong, etc., which are all common Chinese medicinal materials.
But compared with the medicinal materials in the pharmacy, his medicinal materials are of higher quality and more effective.
Moreover, they are all wild herbs, so it is no problem to sell them at a good price.
After a little tidying up, Zhou Ziwen took out a large bag of herbs.
After finishing all this, it’s almost time to get off work.
Zhou Ziwen took out a pheasant that he had pickled earlier and prepared to make chicken soup.
He took out a previously marinated pheasant from the cellar, cleaned it, put it in the pot, and then added some ginger slices and green onion segments to remove the fishy smell.
After a busy period, the aroma of chicken soup gradually filled the kitchen.
Chen Shiying and Chen Qiaoyi returned home and were attracted by the fragrance as soon as they entered the door.
"Brother Ziwen, what are you stewing? Chicken soup? It smells so good!" Chen Qiaoyi couldn't help but come over and ask.
"That's right, it's chicken soup. You have a really good nose." Zhou Ziwen smiled and scratched her nose.
"Hehe, I'm very capable."
Chen Qiaoyi turned up her nose. (End of this chapter)
