It troubled him that if only he harvested a large number of mushrooms while others reaped nothing, the villagers would surely beco jealous.

But if he watered liberally in the forest, all his hard work would benefit others, and he wouldn’t be able to make the corresponding profit.

More importantly, this would inevitably lead to an oversupply of wild mushrooms, which then wouldn’t be such a rare ingredient, causing him to lose market control.

A win-win solution was not impossible.

If he could persuade the villagers to sell their harvested mushrooms to him, he could then sell them at a high price in the market, making a profit from the difference.

This way, his effort in spraying the Spiritual Spring Water would be rewarded with appropriate profit, and the villagers could also earn extra inco.

The key was how to persuade the villagers to sell their mushrooms to him.

They didn’t know that their harvest depended on his hard work spraying the Spiritual Spring Water, so they naturally wouldn’t feel any gratitude towards him.

Making money really is both tiring and worriso!

Everyone in the world bustles about for profit; it seems he could only use profit to entice them!

If he wanted to give up so profit to the villagers, he would have to seize so leverage from the buyers.

But how much were these wild mushrooms worth?

Wu Xiaoyu had no idea.

If his restaurant business with Zhou Dong started, at what price should he sell these mushrooms to him?

If the price was too high, it would an using Zhou Dong’s and his profit to feed the villagers.

If the price was too low, his profit wouldn’t be secured.

The best way would be to test the waters first: take these mushrooms to market to sell, set a price that the market could bear.

That way, if and when the restaurant with Zhou Dong opened, he would have a baseline for pricing.

Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoyu felt increasingly regretful that these rotten mushrooms were being wasted.

How great it would be to sell them in the market!

Oh well!

Who could he bla?

To figure out the price of wild mushrooms, he would need to prepare more Spiritual Spring Water.

Fortunately, the dicine pot he used last ti to spray the Spiritual Spring Water was still in the hut, so he didn’t need to go ho to fetch it.

He closed the door, propped it with a stick, and then chanted a spell to enter the Jade Token.

After racing with a few fat pigs for a while, he retrieved a bottle of Spiritual Spring Water.

He prepared the Spiritual Spring Water, put it into the dicine pot, and was just about to go spray in the forest when he noticed Liu Cuihua walking up the mountain with a bamboo basket in her hand.

Wu Xiaoyu quickly took off the dicine pot he was carrying and lightly slapped his own face.

How could he be so stupid?

If soone saw him spraying dicine in the forest in broad daylight, wouldn’t that be suspicious?

Unintentionally, his movent caught the attention of Liu Cuihua, who was wiping her sweat.

Why was the boy slapping his own face?

Could it be he saw sothing he shouldn’t?

Liu Cuihua quickly checked herself and saw that her attire was not too revealing.

She then continued to walk slowly up the mountain.

At this ti of noon, all the villagers were taking a midday nap, and the whole village was quiet except for the constant chirping of insects and birds.

What was Liu Cuihua doing up the mountain at this ti?

Could she be eting soone in secret?

Since building the chicken farm on the mountain, he hadn’t seen Mrs.

Liu with anyone.

When did Liu Cuihua start becoming so unfaithful?

While he was fantasizing, Liu Cuihua had already reached the mountainside and was about to pass by his chicken farm.

She placed the bamboo basket beside her and, sowhat awkwardly, greeted Wu Xiaoyu, “Xiaoyu, watching chickens on the mountain!”

Wu Xiaoyu quickly gathered his thoughts and replied, “What’s there to see about a few native chickens?

I’m just cooling off on the mountain in this hot weather!”

Hearing this, Liu Cuihua couldn’t help but smile, “A few native chickens?

You can really talk; people say your chickens can be sold for tens of thousands!”

Tens of thousands?

It should at least have another zero!

Wu Xiaoyu thought pridefully but humbly said, “I can’t sell for that much, they’re just talking nonsense!”

During their casual conversation, Wu Xiaoyu unintentionally noticed a sprig of Cuscuta chinensis in her bamboo basket.

He then realized she was gathering herbs, which ant Niu Gui was quite weak!

Should he help treat him?

With his current knowledge of traditional Chinese dicine, treating a case of kidney deficiency would be a piece of cake.

But suddenly bringing this up would likely get him scolded.

After all, he wasn’t an experienced doctor, and people wouldn’t believe him even if he said it.

After a few more pleasantries, Liu Cuihua continued to move up the mountain.

Watching her swaying figure, Wu Xiaoyu found himself sowhat admiring the woman.

Her man was weak, yet there was never any gossip about her.

Now she was even risking her life to gather herbs for him.

This kind of woman could be considered a virtuous wife!

In midsumr, the mountain village wasn’t unbearably hot, but it was still sowhat stuffy.

The villagers mostly had the habit of taking a midday nap, so at this ti of day, few were moving about, and even fewer went up the mountain.

Liu Cuihua chose this ti to gather herbs to avoid gossip.

But since she was up the mountain, Wu Xiaoyu couldn’t spray the Spiritual dicine, so he had to return to the hut to cultivate.

Wu Xiaoyu had been cultivating the Yin Yang Longevity Technique for more than a month.

Besides having sharper senses, greater strength, and quick reflexes, there didn’t seem to be much change.

He still couldn’t release Inner Qi externally or levitate, but internally, his body had almost undergone a complete transformation.

The Spiritual Energy circulated more smoothly, and the Qi in his Dantian beca more abundant.

When he finished cultivating, it was already three o’clock in the afternoon.

The number of villagers entering the mountain hadn’t decreased; in fact, there were more of them.

These people no longer harbored fantasies of finding ginseng.

They were entering the mountain just to pass by Wu Xiaoyu’s chicken farm and see how his chickens were growing.

Since he had moved his chickens into the mountain, the villagers had been coming by for a peek every few days, displaying more enthusiasm than he, the owner, did.

Now, within just over a month, his chickens had grown to about four pounds each, making the villagers even more envious.

So raising chickens was this easy!

No wonder the kid wanted to lease the barren mountain!

Everyone laughed at him for being foolish, but in the end, weren’t they the foolish ones!

Seeing Wu Xiaoyu’s success imminent, the villagers beca more enthusiastic towards him.

As soon as he stepped out of the hut, he encountered several elderly n who struck up a conversation.

Although these people weren’t from his imdiate family, they were elders who praised Wu Xiaoyu to no end, calling him smart and capable, saying he had spirit and a strong will.

He felt very embarrassed.

After finally getting rid of these people, Wu Xiaoyu locked up the chicken farm and hurried down the mountain.

He had no ti for idle chatter with those climbing the hill.
