From the gate of heaven

Chapter 3 [Matsutake, [-] times profit]

Before setting foot in the different world, Lin Ze thought about how he would earn the first pot of gold from the two-world transaction.

Being a peddler in the two worlds sells sugar, this is just Lin Ze's expedient measure.

In fact, I used the opportunity of selling sugar to establish contact with the villagers living around the Yunwu Mountains.

Then buy their matsutake and resell them back to the main world to reap huge profits, so as to quickly accumulate original capital, which is Lin Ze's real purpose.

Matsutake, called matsutake in the main world.

The price is high, ranging from hundreds to thousands of yuan for a catty of matsutake.

However, in the history of matsutake, the initial price was not too high.

Because this kind of mushroom has a unique taste, it was a niche hobby in the past and was not liked by the public.

So from ancient times to the present, matsutake is just a kind of worthless miscellaneous fungus.

However, in modern times, due to the increase in consumption of matsutake and the decrease in output, as well as the reason that artificial large-scale cultivation has not been possible.

However, the price of matsutake has skyrocketed to the category of luxury ingredients, and it has begun to be sold in terms of grams.

In this different world called the Great Zhou Dynasty, matsutake has not yet become a luxury and high-end ingredient, and is still in the category of miscellaneous fungi.

Can't sell at any price.

So usually, matsutake is just an ingredient used by these villagers who rely on the mountains to supplement their staple food.

But for such miscellaneous bacteria, Lin Ze had to pay eight cents a catty, which was equivalent to the price of rice.

It's almost charity.

In the simple Anshi's view, an honest shopkeeper like Lin Ze should not suffer such a loss.

So he didn't plan to sell it and gave it away directly.
-
Lin Ze refused Anshi's kindness.

He wasn't lying, he did buy it for his elders, but it didn't have to be his elders.

Elders of others are also elders.

Lin Ze smiled and said: "I appreciate your kindness, but you can give it once, can't you give it all the time?"

"In the days to come, I may come to buy this pine mushroom every year, and I'm sorry to let you keep giving it away."

In the modern world, a catty of dry matsutake costs hundreds of dollars even if it is not in good condition, and thousands of dollars in good condition.

He paid eight cents, the price of a catty of rice to buy dry matsutake.

A catty of rice is only two yuan, directly hundreds of times the starting profit.

This is simply the first emperor touching the wires, and the first emperor soaking his feet in pepper water-it is really numb!
Moreover, they also want to thank Lin Ze.

as predicted.

Hearing this, An Shi looked at Lin Ze more softly.

This is a fastidious person.

The worthless miscellaneous bacteria are willing to pay eight cents a catty for the elders to eat.

Not only exquisite, but also filial piety.

This boy is a good guy, worthy of deep friendship.

Such thoughts appeared in An Shi's mind, and also in the hearts of many simple villagers in Lianghe Village.

"Lin Langjun, just wait, I'll go and bring you all the pine mushrooms at home."

An Shi said so, and finished the porridge in the bowl in a few mouthfuls.

Then he trotted towards his home.

"Mr. Lin, wait a minute, I also have pine mushrooms at home, and I'll sell them to you together."

Beside them, other Lianghe Villagers spoke and ran home.

I didn't expect that someone would buy the miscellaneous mushroom ingredients used as a supplement to the staple food at a good price. If I missed this time, I don't know if there will be a next time.

So at this time, people in Lianghe Village are very active, wanting to sell the pine mushrooms accumulated in their homes to Lin Ze.

At the same time, some people are thinking that it is just the time for pine mushrooms to be produced recently.

Next, they can go to the mountains to pick more pine mushrooms. If they can be sold to Lin Ze at the price of rice, then the money they get can also improve their lives.

"Don't worry, I'll wait for you here."

Lin Ze looked at a group of villagers rushing to his house with gentle eyes, as if he was looking at high-quality cash cows that could walk.
-
Soon, all the villagers in Lianghe Village who had matsutake came back.

They packed the matsutake in bamboo baskets and dustpans, and came to the entrance of the village to look at Lin Ze expectantly.

Lin Ze lived up to expectations and began to praise these matsutake.

When selling things, Lin Ze raised the scale high and gave enough weight.

When buying things, the scale head is pressed flat, so that the actual weight of the thing can be displayed as much as possible.

Such a move can win people's favor.

This is especially true for these villagers who usually do not live a very well-to-do life.

"An Shi, eight catties, nine twos and three qian pine mushrooms, nine catties, 72 Wen."

Lin Ze spoke loudly.

After weighing, pay, and then pack the matsutake in the sack that I brought.

An Shi saw the whole process of weighing matsutake, and looked at Lin Ze with a more friendly gaze.

The villagers of Lianghe Village on the side didn't say anything, but their attitude towards Lin Ze became much friendlier.

Here, Lin Ze bought a lot of matsutake, because everyone came here in one brain, and they were really busy when they were busy.

But in just a while, Lin Ze completed the entire acquisition process in less than half an hour.

As the acquisition progressed, the joy in Lin Ze's heart accumulated more and more.

"A full harvest of two hundred and seven catties of dried matsutake!"

Lin Ze was thinking quickly in his heart.

Although the appearance of these dried matsutake mushrooms varies, these mushrooms are picked by the villagers for their own food. Generally speaking, the appearance of these mushrooms is on the passing line.

Based on an average of 1000 yuan per catty, the 20 catties of matsutake here are worth more than [-] yuan.

But in fact, the final selling price will only be higher than this!
And what about Lin Ze's efforts?
It only cost four hundred yuan, and he didn't even use up the profit he got from selling sugar!

This is a full five hundred times the profit!
-
Seeing that no one came to sell matsutake, Lin Ze was about to leave.

"Mr. Lin, I still have a tiger skin in my house. I killed it with an arrow. The tiger skin is intact. Do you want it?"

There were warm greetings from the villagers of Lianghe Village.

"Tiger skin is nothing. I have a good bear skin in my house, and it kills me with an arrow. Mr. Lin, do you want it?"

Another villager spoke.

Because Lin Ze's favorability has been raised to friendly, and he has a good impression of him, the villagers of Lianghe Village are also willing to offer some precious things to trade.

If you encounter merchants with bad conduct, they may cause trouble if they take out precious things, but a good boy like Lin Ze will definitely not have any problems.

"No, no, this is not necessary."

An awkward but polite smile appeared on Lin Ze's face, and he waved his hand to refuse.

Of course he knew that these furs were valuable, and he could make a lot of money by buying them and reselling them, but this stuff was too much punishment, taking it back and selling it guaranteed to be invited to drink tea.

He has thin arms and legs now, so he doesn't dare to get involved with these protected animals.

Many villagers suddenly realized that since Lin Ze is a disciple of the hermit master and usually lives in the Yunwu Mountains, he must have beaten these tigers and bears a lot, and naturally there is no shortage of fur.

"Come again next time."

Lin Ze drove away in a donkey cart, followed by villagers from Lianghe Village.

After leaving Lianghe Village, Lin Ze didn't rush to open the "All Heavens Gate" to go back to the main world, but drove a donkey cart to the next village.

It's still early at the moment, and although he has harvested a wave of matsutake, he is obviously not satisfied yet.

Next, keep making money!
