Zhao Yan, who happened to walk out of the mushroom house, heard his name and looked over.

“Hey, Xiaoran, Mr. Luo, why are you guys here?” Zhao Yan waved and greeted them.

Seeing that Zhao Yan was here, Li Xiaoran smiled.

“I haven’t been here only for a while, but this place has changed a lot!”

“You told me that the place where mushrooms are planted needs to be cleaned up. Deep in the mountains, the places where mushrooms grow are actually very clean. This place was indeed a little too messy. Besides, these mushrooms are planted for everyone to eat, so it’s better to tidy them up so that they can be sold for money in the future!” Zhao Yan said.

Li Xiaoran looked around at the forest, which looked much cleaner, and said, “Then you spent a lot of effort to tidy it up?”

“That’s right! I called my parents, brother, and sister over to help. It took me more than ten days to tidy up this place! Mr. Luo, Cousin, come and take a look. I think my mushrooms are growing!” Zhao Yan said as he gestured for them to come over.

When Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng heard this, joy flashed across their eyes. Then, they followed Zhao Yan to the wooden house closest to there.

“After you taught me how to plant mushrooms, I built a few wooden houses like this. I also built a few stone houses. I plan to compare the houses and see which one is more suitable for planting mushrooms. From the looks of it, there’s no difference between these houses!” Zhao Yan explained his progress in planting mushrooms during this period of time.

Zhao Yan said happily, “Cousin, look, these mushrooms have already grown. When they grow a little older, they can be harvested! I have to say, your method is really brilliant. Mushrooms actually grew!”

Li Xiaoran walked over and took a closer look. As expected, the fungus bags made of wood shavings were already filled with white mushrooms.

Luo Cheng also looked over curiously. When he saw the mushrooms in Li Xiaoran’s hand, he was shocked.

“The mushrooms really grew? This mushroom looks much cleaner and softer than mushrooms picked from the mountains.”

“That’s right. Mr. Luo, when I saw these mushrooms grow, I was so happy that I ran around the forest a few times. This means that my thoughts are right. In the future, I can rely on planting these mushrooms to earn money and raise my family!” Zhao Yan said as he handed another piece of wood to Luo Cheng.

Luo Cheng sniffed the mushrooms growing out of the wood. They smelled the same as the mushrooms he had picked previously.

“Not bad. It seems that we can eat mushrooms whenever we want in the future!”

Zhao Yan nodded with a smile. “That’s right! You guys can eat mushrooms anytime you want. Just tell me and I’ll send it to you!”

Li Xiaoran was also happy to see these mushrooms that were growing well.

“Looks like the commoners here are going to have an additional ingredient available! I can think of more than ten mushroom dishes to cook now!”

“These mushrooms will be edible in a few days. I’ll send them to you guys then!” Zhao Yan said, “I’ll get some for everyone at home to try and celebrate my success in planting mushrooms!”

“Alright, then I’ll be waiting!” Li Xiaoran agreed.

After that, the three of them went to see how the mushrooms in the other houses were growing.

It had to be said that the mushrooms in every house were planted well. When they harvested in two days, they would be able to harvest a lot.

“Don’t give them all away. Send some to the market to sell.” Li Xiaoran thought of something and said, “If you sell this thing now, it should be able to sell for a lot of money. That is rare is dear, so set the price higher!”

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “There’s no need to sell them. Send them straight to my wine shop! I believe it won’t be long before many people from restaurants come to you to buy these mushrooms!”

Luo Cheng thought for a moment and said, “There’s no need to sell them. Send them straight to my wine shop! I believe it won’t be long before many people from restaurants come to you to order these mushrooms!”

Luo Cheng nodded and said, “That’s a good idea. Let’s arrange it!”

When Zhao Yan saw that his cousin and cousin-in-law planned to sell the mushrooms, he was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear. “Looks like I have to build more houses to plant mushrooms!” Luo Cheng thought of something when he heard Zhao Yan’s words.

“It’s time to build more. I think this forest is very big, so we can still build more! If you don’t have enough money, we can lend it to you first. You can pay it back slowly after you earn money!”

Zhao Yan nodded and said gratefully, “Thank you, Mr. Luo. I still have to go back and discuss this with my parents! Since I’m going to plant mushrooms to sell, I have to bring my family along.”

Luo Cheng nodded and said, “Alright, discuss it first. You can come to us if you need anything!”

To be honest, Luo Cheng had a good impression of this family.

They knew how to solve their own problem. They were also diligent, down-to-earth, and smart, so Luo Cheng was naturally willing to help such relatives.

After they left Zhao Yan’s place, they realized that the weather outside became even hotter.

Fortunately, there was a stream not far away. There were big trees on both sides of the stream, and the undersides of the trees were shady.

The two of them walked towards the stream and took refuge in the shade.

Upon seeing the clear stream, Li Xiaoran was very happy and wanted to take off her shoes to step in it.

“Don’t!” Luo Cheng seemed to have seen through Li Xiaoran’s thoughts and quickly stopped her.

“The stream here is filled with gravel. You’ll get cut if you go down barefoot. If you want to tread water, let’s make a sturdy straw shoe next time and walk through the water together!”

When Li Xiaoran heard Luo Cheng’s words, she looked at the stream regretfully.

“Sigh, that’s the only way! But it’ll definitely be very cool and comfortable to step into this stream. Why don’t I take off my shoes and socks and soak my feet in the water?” Li Xiaoran thought of a way to cool herself down.

“It wasn’t easy for you to recuperate, so don’t be too anxious! Go back with me quickly. I’ll get someone to buy delicious food for you!” Luo Cheng coaxed..
