“Alright,” he said.
Xue Yan carried his basket and followed behind Xue Dafu and Xue Erfu with Jiang Yue.
As Xue Dafu walked, he couldn’t help but turn back. “Just dig on this mountain in front of us. Don’t go to other mountains, okay? You all saw that bear before. Now, even Hunter Wu doesn’t dare to go hunting anymore. He’s thinking of buying some land to grow crops.”
“I know.” Xue Yan and Jiang Yue both agreed obediently.
However, once they were out of Xue Dafu and Xue Erfu’s sight, Jiang Yue immediately pulled Xue Yan to the mountain behind them.
After six days of growth, the moonbelly fungus had already grown to the size that could be picked.
At first, when they were young mushrooms, now they could be completely seen. The cover of each morel was uneven like a honeycomb, like an opened goat’s belly, which was why they were called morels.
They were transplanted, so there wouldn’t be a second harvest after they were all picked. Therefore, when picking mushrooms, they could just pick them directly from the root. There was no need to pay attention to anything.
“Do you want to dry this?” Xue Yan asked Jiang Yue while picking.
“I won’t dry it,” Jiang Yue said. “I’ll just sell it. It’ll save us a lot of trouble.”
Xue Yan also knew that no matter if it was dried or fresh, no one would want it, so he nodded, “Okay.” He didn’t want to go through all that trouble.
They only planted a few here and there. After they finished harvesting one piece, they went to harvest another.
When they had finished harvesting the two areas, their basket was just full.
If it were to dry, it would probably only be able to cover the bottom of the basket.
Jiang Yue looked at the seeds of the precious herbs that she had scattered earlier, but they had not sprouted yet. She left them alone and left the mountains with Xue Yan.
The basket was carried by Xue Yan. Although he had a basket full of morels on his back, it wasn’t heavy at all.
“You’re more familiar with the town. Who do you think should I sell this moonbelly fungus to?” Jiang Yue asked. She had considered selling it in the county, but it was too far away.
Xue Yan answered, “It’s better to sell it to Manager Qiao of Lakshmi Restaurant. I’ve heard of that Manager Qiao. He has a good reputation in the county.”
“The county?”
“Yes, Lakshmi Restaurant is there. A few years ago, he opened a restaurant in the county, also called Lakshmi Restaurant. The restaurant’s business is also good. He accepts rare things, so he should accept this as well. The price offered may not be the fairest, but it’s still fair in the town and county.”
“Alright, then we’ll sell it to him.”
Seeing that they were going downhill, Jiang Yue went down first and then helped Xue Yan.
Xue Yan was already used to it, so he was helped down by Jiang Yue.
“Do you think… “Xue Yan suddenly spoke after a few steps. His voice was low and hesitant. He didn’t even dare to look at Jiang Yue, ” If… If I practice while I’m still young, will I be as good as you?”
Jiang Yue looked at his thin body and said, “I don’t think so.”
“Alright.” He would not make things difficult for himself.
