The Greatest Village Doctor In The World-Chapter 39 Going to Sell Mushrooms
After picking up a few mushrooms, Ling Feng had searched through the deep-colored grass and moved on toward a farther area.
He hadn’t gone far when panting sounds came from behind. He looked back and found that Wang Cai had returned.
"Good job, you’ll get roasted meat when we get back!" Ling Feng said with a laugh.
At hearing this, Wang Cai’s mouth split in a smile, and its eyes lit up!
However, Ling Feng did not plan to let it idle, taking out a mushroom and holding it to its nose, "Sniff this and help me find more, okay?"
Doing this was treating Wang Cai, the wolf, as if it were a dog.
But thankfully, with the Taming Technique, it had lost the pride of being a wolf, and after sniffing twice, it dashed into the grass.
Only dozens of seconds later, Wang Cai let out a wolf howl from a distance!
"Hey, this move is way better than that old man’s!" Ling Feng said excitedly, rushing over to pick up a big chunk of mushroom from the grass.
So, that morning, the man and the wolf busied themselves in the mountains until Ling Feng’s stomach rumbled hungrily around noon and he stopped.
Afterward, Wang Cai took charge of hunting, and Ling Feng took care of roasting the meat. While waiting for it to cook, he checked his haul for the day.
He had found about seventy fist-sized mushrooms, which he estimated to weigh at least forty pounds. It was quite a good haul.
"When I get back, I’ll find the boss lady and hand these over to her, and then we’ll see what that woman has to say!" Ling Feng said to himself with a smile.
Wang Cai’s eyes were fixed on the roasting meat, paying no attention to what he was saying, unable to discuss it even if it were listening.
In the afternoon, having traveled a long way, Ling Feng returned to the tricycle, looked at Wang Cai, and felt that bringing it to the city would surely be a spectacle but could also lead to trouble. Thus he pondered for a moment and said, "You wait around here for me, I’ll come back after I’m done with errands, then we’ll go home together!"
Wang Cai howled at the sky twice, then turned and plunged into the forest.
Ling Feng got on his tricycle and headed straight for the outskirts to the restaurant owned by the boss lady, with today’s harvest in tow!
It wasn’t business hours in the afternoon, so the restaurant was quiet and nearly empty.
Approaching the counter, he saw someone inside lying on the table as if asleep. He asked with a smile, "Boss lady? Having a spring dream?"
"Hm?"
Yang Guihua raised her head, rubbed her eyes, and upon seeing him, she smiled, "It’s you, kid. Why didn’t you bring the two misses with you today?"
"Bringing them isn’t convenient. I came just to see you!" Ling Feng winked.
"Go on, adults don’t behave, and now neither does this youngster. Tell me, what do you want from me!" Yang Guihua glared at him.
Ling Feng chuckled and lifted the basket in his hand to show her, "Delivering goods!"
"What?"
Yang Guihua was startled and quickly came out from behind the counter, lifting the cloth that covered the basket, and gasped in surprise!
"My God, where did you find so many mushrooms!"
Her astonished look made Ling Feng very happy, and he said proudly, "Don’t worry about where I got them from. Now that I’ve delivered, aren’t you supposed to keep your promise?"
"What promise?"
Yang Guihua lifted her head and asked blankly.
Ling Feng stood in front of her, "No way, you’ve got such a bad memory? What did we talk about yesterday?"
"Yesterday?"
Yang Guihua thought back for a moment and suddenly remembered, then her eyes shifted, "You little perv, didn’t I tell you yesterday that it’s only if you can provide a stable supply? It’s only been one day, and you’re already trying to take advantage of me?"
Her words left Ling Feng speechless. Seeing him dumbfounded, Yang Guihua smiled slightly, stood up, and said, "You rascal, you’re quite capable, actually finding mushrooms. Follow me to the back!"
In the backyard, Yang Guihua brought out a scale, put the basket on it to weigh, then dumped out all the mushrooms to weigh the basket again, and thus found out the weight of the mushrooms.
"That old man used to be able to bring me at most fifteen to twenty pounds a day, and you’ve come up with forty-five pounds all at once. Where on earth did you pick these?" Yang Guihua looked up and asked.
Yang Guihua noticed his gaze and spat, "Hey, I’m talking to you!"
"Heh heh, you’re asking me where I picked them from? That’s a secret, I’m not telling you!" Ling Feng deliberately played coy.
"Tch, nevermind then, just wait here, I’ll go get the money!" Yang Guihua gave him a glance and turned to go to the room in the back.
A moment later, she came back with a stack of money and handed it to Ling Feng, "One hundred per pound, here’s four thousand five hundred. Count it."
"No need, I don’t trust you?"
Ling Feng casually stuffed the money into his pocket, while at the same time was slightly shocked in his heart. He hadn’t expected these mushrooms to be so valuable!
"Will you have more goods tomorrow?" Yang Guihua looked at him, a meaningful glint in her eyes.
"No more. If you want a continuous supply, you might have to wait a while," Ling Feng shook his head.
Yang Guihua let out a somewhat disappointed "oh": "Well, hurry it up then, I don’t want to be harassed by that old man anymore."
"Why bother with him at all? Why subject yourself to him?" Ling Feng asked curiously.
"What do you know? I have my difficulties. Without that signature dish, how would I make money?" Yang Guihua shot him a sidelong glance.
Ling Feng was at a loss for words, "What? Are you really short on cash?"
"None of your business. Just bring me the mushrooms as soon as you have them next time!"
Yang Guihua said this, then swung her hips and walked towards the front.
Seeing that she didn’t want to talk more, Ling Feng didn’t bother asking further. After all, who didn’t have problems they couldn’t discuss with others?
After saying goodbye and leaving, Ling Feng went back to where he had left Wang Cai and called out into the woods a couple of times. Moments later, a black shadow dashed out of the woods like lightning!
Wang Cai hadn’t been idling either. During the wait, it had caught two wild rabbits, holding them in its mouth, looking quite pleased with itself, wagging its tail back and forth.
"I get what you mean, get in the car, and let’s go back and continue roasting meat for you!" Ling Feng laughed.
Wang Cai jumped into the truck bed. Ling Feng casually covered it with a tarpaulin and then headed back to Shiliu Village. 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞
By the time he arrived home, it was evening. Blue smoke rose from each household, signaling the start of dinner preparations. Ling Feng first let Wang Cai wait in the backyard, then turned to go to his own farm.
Just as he reached the entrance, he saw Li Shiyun coming out from inside. Upon seeing him, her eyes immediately widened!
"You finally remember to come back!"
Seeing the beautiful Village Chief angry, Ling Feng hurriedly smiled apologetically, "Sorry, sorry, got held up with some things. Everything okay at home?"
