Chapter 45 Can it be eaten?

Hua Xiali was responsible for going to the farmer's market. If Zhang Yongfeng was asked to do everything, Zhang Yongfeng would not be able to cope with it. After all, he was just a mortal. Moreover, Hua Xiali wanted him to live a few more years in this life and did not want to see him die young.

Hua Xiali walked past Zhang Yongfeng from a distance without saying hello to him. She first went to the tailor shop to pick up the clothes she had ordered before, and then went to the school to give Hua Chunli's clothes to Hua Chunli. Now that the season has changed, she really needs clothes to wear.

Now the spicy potato business is stable, and the daily income is guaranteed to be more than 200 yuan. As long as it doesn't rain, the monthly income is at least 5,000 yuan. So Hua Xiali plans to start the braised food business as soon as possible, so that he can pay off the foreign debt as soon as possible and return to school.

She still wanted to get into a university, to be respected, and to make her parents respected.

The feeling of being inferior, humble, and looked down upon in her previous life... She never wanted to experience that again.

After Hua Xia said goodbye to Hua Chunli, she gave the other clothes to Zhang Yongfeng and asked him to take them home in the evening. Because she was not sure what time she would be back, or whether she would be back at night, she asked Zhang Yongfeng to help her tell her mother that if she had not returned home by 10 o'clock in the evening, she would most likely have gone to her fourth uncle's house, so they don't need to worry.

Although you can't take the bus at this time, you can still find tricycles, rickshaws, etc., which are everywhere on the streets.

Although taxis have been invented in this era, like telephones, they are not yet universally available. Even in her previous life, when her two sons were in college, it was rare to see taxis here. However, there were people running private transportation, so everyone's daily travel was still not a problem.

Hua Xiali walked aimlessly for a while, and finally stretched out his hand to stop a rickshaw passing by his fourth uncle's house. The rickshaw was very noisy, making a humming sound. When sitting in the rickshaw, he could not hear any other sound except the humming sound. Fortunately, he told the driver where he would get off when he got on the rickshaw, otherwise he would have definitely missed the get-off point.

After getting off the rickshaw, Hua Xiali stood on the side of the road and retched in discomfort. The main reason was that the car was too bumpy and it was not half as comfortable as a minibus.

When Hua Xiali arrived at his fourth uncle's house, it was still early, so he went directly to the bamboo forest on the mountain to find his fourth uncle and aunt. When he saw the old Mushroom wearing a mesh skirt, Hua Xiali widened his eyes in surprise.

This mushroom wearing a mesh skirt looks like a beautiful girl in a gauze skirt, with very obvious features. This is the extremely precious bamboo fungus!

But isn’t bamboo fungus only found in Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan?
How could they have it in Guizhen City?
Seeing this large bamboo forest, Hua Xiali realized that bamboo fungus is something that can only be found in bamboo forests. There are large areas of bamboo on the mountains here. Isn't this normal?
This realization made Hua Xiali's breathing quicken. If they had bamboo fungus, then would she have another source of income?

However, people here don’t seem to like eating mushrooms and other things, just like bamboo shoots. She doesn’t feel that anyone around her likes to eat these things.

So if she takes it out now, she probably won't make much money, but she can keep it in the Lingquan space and take it out when everyone eats these things in the future, so she can make money.

So Hua Xiali quickly picked an old bamboo fungus and ran into the bamboo forest impatiently. After searching for a long time, he finally found his fourth uncle and aunt who were picking bamboo shoots.

Hua Xiali hurried to his fourth uncle, spread out his hands, and asked in a low voice, "Fourth uncle, do you eat this?"

Fourth uncle frowned and looked at Hua Xiali in confusion, "What is this? Can it be eaten?" Forget it!

Fourth Uncle had no idea that bamboo fungus was edible and tasted particularly delicious. It seemed that people here didn't know that bamboo fungus was edible, so she decided not to meddle in other people's business, lest others think she wanted to harm them. She would just pick them herself and wait until everyone discovered it themselves before making any further comments.

Hua Xiali smiled awkwardly, "I don't know if this thing can be eaten, I just think it looks pretty weird."

Although she did not live in the mountains, she knew some things from newspapers and television in her previous life. It was generally best to pick mushrooms after rain or in the morning. By this time, the bamboo fungus would have been old. So she would come and have a look tomorrow morning. If she could really pick some bamboo fungus, she could pick it every morning and then deal with other things without any delay.

She just had to get up two hours earlier in the morning, which meant she had two hours less sleep. But that was not a big deal. In her previous life, she had to get up at five or six in the morning to make breakfast for her son, and in the evening, when they returned home from self-study, she would make them a midnight snack.

Getting up two hours early to pick bamboo fungus is much easier than taking care of two junior and high school students.

So sleeping two hours less is not a big deal for Hua Xiali.

The appearance of bamboo fungus made Hua Xiali seem to see a brighter future. She was full of excitement and joy. After taking the key from her fourth aunt's hand, she turned around and skipped away.

Looking at Hua Xiali's leaving back, Fourth Aunt sighed helplessly, "Why is this child so happy all of a sudden? Did something good happen?"

"Don't ask too many questions, or the child will get angry." Fourth uncle warned.

Fourth Aunt rolled her eyes and said, "I've raised three children myself, how could I not know?"

Once children reach their teens, they don’t like to talk much to their elders. If the elders ask too many questions, they will feel annoyed, so they can only wait for them to speak first.

She knows what the child doesn't like, so she naturally won't bring bad luck to herself.

The next morning, before dawn, Hua Xiali went up the mountain with a basket and a flashlight. Sure enough, she found fresh bamboo fungus under the bamboo roots. She squatted down and used a blade to cut off the bamboo fungus cord from the bottom of the stipe. Then she cleared away the bamboo leaves, soil and other dirt on it and put it in the bamboo basket.

She didn't know how long it took her to fill a basket with bamboo fungi. For fear of crushing them, she quickly transferred them to the Lingquan space.

The last time she came to transfer tens of thousands of kilograms of bamboo shoots from her fourth uncle's house to the Lingquan Space, Hua Xiali felt that there was a distance between the bamboo courtyard wall of the Lingquan Space and the bamboo shoots on display. It was then that Hua Xiali realized that it seemed that the courtyard wall could expand automatically, which meant that no matter how much she put in, this courtyard could accommodate it, and she didn't have to worry about having no place to put her things.
