Return to the small mountain village in 1983

Chapter 58 The treasure is right in front of you [Second update]

Not long after, Lin Heng and Xiulan climbed over the mountain side of Tongshugou. After climbing over, the forest seemed primitive.

Trees are so tall, more than ten meters tall, that a person can't hold them in his arms. There are vines as thick as an arm everywhere.

There are no formal paths in the woods, so you have to walk on your own feet.

There were broken and rotten logs everywhere, and no one took them home to use as firewood.

From time to time you can see pits dug by wild boars on the ground, where they are looking for turmeric and yams in the soil to eat.

While walking, Lin Heng picked up a beautiful golden rooster tail feather, which was blue-green and had a luxurious feel.

Although there were traces of animals everywhere on the ground, unfortunately, he could not find any prey.

The only two red squirrels I found ran away as soon as they saw him, without giving them a chance to take action.

The two of them climbed this mountain very quickly, because it was covered with mixed woods, and the mountain was steep, full of rocks, and almost devoid of fungi.

There are a lot of yams here, but now is not the season for digging yams.

Following the ridge to the south and over another mountain, a huge canyon appeared in front of their eyes.

The canyon is seven to eight hundred meters wide, with a clear mountain stream in the middle and tall trees on both sides, mainly pine, chestnut, acorn, fir, and red toon trees.

From a distance, you can see some fallen red toon trees, which are more than thirty meters long.

"This is Baishigou. There are probably a lot of good things here."

Lin Heng looked at the canyon below and said that the land here is fertile, unlike the mountains just now that were full of rocks.

The trees here are also significantly taller and of better variety.

The reason why Baishigou is called Baishigou is because there are many large gray-white rocks in this canyon.

"Yes, this is Baishigou. Very few people in the village come here."

Xiulan nodded. This was her first time coming to Baishigou.

It's too far, it's six or seven kilometers away from home, about the same distance as going to Huangtan Town.

The mountain road is still difficult to walk, and only people who hunt in autumn and winter come here.

Xiulan was talking when she suddenly caught a glimpse of red from the corner of her eye.

"Red Ganoderma lucidum, I discovered Ganoderma lucidum when I first arrived!"

Taking a closer look, Xiulan suddenly showed a look of surprise.

On the ground, under an oak stake, three or four red Ganoderma lucidum stood tall and graceful.

"My God, this place is really a treasure." Lin Heng was also surprised.

There are many kinds of Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain, but only red Ganoderma lucidum has good medicinal value, and the market purchase price can reach [-] to [-] yuan per pound.

Red Ganoderma has a long stalk and grows on the ground. There is usually rotten wood next to it. The cap is smooth and red, and the flesh is white and feels a bit like wood.

"The ones that have just grown are not broken yet!" Xiulan said with a smile.

Ganoderma lucidum has the most medicinal value only when it has just grown and the spore powder has not been sprayed out, and it is also the most expensive to sell.

The specific manifestation is that the bacterial flesh under the cap is white and has a fleshy texture.

If it gets old, it will turn gray-black, become seriously lignified, lose its medicinal effect, and cannot be sold if picked up.

"There are more here!"

Lin Heng also found three or four under another tree stump. Unfortunately, two of them were old.

"Wang Wang!!"

Xiong Ba saw Ganoderma lucidum for the first time. He smelled it curiously and licked it again, as if trying to identify it.

"I picked up five. They are all good. Look for them quickly. It stands to reason that there are still some nearby."

Xiulan's face was filled with a happy smile. After all, such a long journey was not in vain.

As expected, the two soon found many more red ganoderma flowers nearby, totaling a total of eighteen red ganoderma flowers.

"Even if it is dried in the sun, half a catty will definitely be enough!" Xiulan took the Ganoderma lucidum and looked at it again and again, smiling from ear to ear.

"Wang Wang!"

At this time, Xiong Ba called out from below.

Lin Heng walked over and took a look and saw that there were five or six red Ganoderma lucidum flowers. Unfortunately, five of them were useless and only two were newly unearthed. “Good dog, I’ll beat up a green-bearded and cunning guy for you later.”

Lin Heng touched the dog's head, forgiving it for its previous behavior.

"Wang Wang!!"

Xiong Ba barked twice and continued to look around.

The back of red Ganoderma lucidum is dark red, which makes it easy for people to miss it when looking for it. On the contrary, it is easier for dogs to find it by smell.

"Wang Wang!!"

As soon as they heard Xiong Ba's call, Lin Heng and Xiulan walked over.

Within half an hour, Lin Heng and Xiulan were both a little shocked.

"In a small mountain bag less than [-] square meters, I actually found more than a pound of red Ganoderma lucidum."

Xiulan looked at the Ganoderma lucidum in the bag and said blankly.

These thirty-odd Ganoderma lucidums were more expensive than the mushrooms and herbs she had collected in the past three or four months.

"It's incredible!" Lin Heng was also trembling with excitement both physically and mentally.

"Come on, wife, give me a kiss!"

With that said, he hugged Xiulan and gave her a hard kiss.

Xiulan licked her lips, rolled her eyes at him, and said with a smile: "Just leave when you are happy enough. Maybe there will be more."

"Yes, let's go down the mountain and have a look."

Lin Heng nodded repeatedly. There are many treasures in the mountains. As long as you have a pair of eyes that are good at discovering, it is not difficult to make a fortune.

Sometimes the treasure may be at your feet, but if you step in the wrong direction, you will miss it.

"It's really strange. After passing this mountain, I can't find any of them."

Xiulan sighed, but she knew that mushrooms were all like this, piece by piece.

The discovery of this nest this year means that there is a high probability that you will gain something from coming here in the future.

"That's all right. Even if you can't find anything else today, just this little Ganoderma lucidum will be enough to make a profit."

Lin Heng chuckled.

"Yes, you can make money with blood." Xiulan nodded fiercely.

"Wang Wang!!"

Suddenly, Xiong Ba called out again.

“Is it Ganoderma again??”

The couple turned their heads in excitement.

"I'll go take a look." Lin Heng said and hurried over.

Pulling on the tree, taking three steps and two steps at a time, he arrived at a distance of more than [-] meters in less than a minute.

"It turns out to be Phellinus mulberry. A big tree of Phellinus mulberry is pretty good."

You say you are happy, but in fact you are still quite disappointed, that’s how people are.

The medicinal value of Phellinus linteum is actually higher than that of Ganoderma lucidum, but its value was discovered very late.

It was only discovered in 68 that its anti-cancer effect was very strong. It was already 93 when the specific anti-cancer drugs were released, and prices soared only then.

Domestic mulberry prices have just started in the past two years. The doubling of prices in August and September is actually just the beginning, and will continue to soar.

But now that he had encountered them, Lin Heng would not let them go and picked them all. The total weight was estimated to be four or five kilograms, which was considered a good harvest.

Putting it into the backpack, Lin Heng and Xiulan continued to search around.

However, all the way to the canyon, I couldn't find any good things. I just occasionally picked a few yellow flowers.

Xiongba ran around and couldn't find anything valuable.

"Husband, come here quickly, I found a lot of good things."

Lin Heng was about to move forward when Xiulan's excited voice came from the rear left.
