Returning to the mountain village, starting with mushroom picking to get rich

The 800 acres of forest can roughly accommodate the area of ​​80 football fields.

It's not that big, but it's not that small either.

The area that Yang Lin rented was a very irregular circular shape.

Walking from one end of the woodland to the other is about 700 or 800 meters, which takes about ten minutes.

Even with the ability to create mycelium, it would be a considerable challenge to have the mycelium completely cover this 800-acre area.

If he were to take every step of the way, traversing every inch of the contracted area and leaving mycelium in the forests, he estimated he would have to exhaust himself to barely cover the 800-acre area.

Fortunately, mycelium is a living organism, possessing the ability to grow and reproduce.

By leaving behind just one seed, he can give birth to boundless hope.

So, while the villagers and workers began to work and clear the forest for him...

Yang Lin has secretly divided these 800 acres of mountain forest into ten areas.

Then, a small plot of land was set up in each area, and a small amount of mycelium was created as a parent culture. During the intervals between the supervisor's inspections, the mycelium was quietly planted.

Let them multiply and expand within the area, gradually increasing their range.

After patrolling around several times, Yang Lin successfully buried 10 mushroom nests in his own forest.

Ten clusters of spiritual light appeared in Yang Lin's mind.

Now, it's time to witness a miracle.

The workers' labor was primarily focused on the above-ground parts.

It will not have any impact on the underground.

Under Yang Lin's conscious control, the shiitake mushroom mycelium that Yang Lin had buried began to grow wildly in the soil.

If anyone could see through the earth and into the soil, they would be astonished to discover what lay beneath.

The mycelium expanded at a rate that was visible to the naked eye.

Like an octopus trapped in a bottle, it suddenly stretched out its tentacles in all directions.

In just a few minutes, the mycelium, which was originally only the size of a palm, grew to the size of a washbasin.

The mycelium continues to grow, gradually expanding its coverage area.

From the size of a washbasin to the size of a bathtub, from the size of a bathtub to the size of a bedroom...

Several hours later, Yang Lin finally stopped speeding up when he felt extremely tired and sleepiness overwhelmed him.

To allow the mycelium to resume its normal growth rate.

"So sleepy...so tired..."

"Have something to eat and rest, then come back for another check-up tomorrow..."

Overwhelmed by drowsiness and exhaustion, Yang Lin hurriedly left the mountains, made a few packets of instant noodles, hastily ate his fill, and then lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Yang Lin didn't wake up until noon the next day, still feeling groggy.

"I still feel a little sleepy, but much better than yesterday."

Yang Lin rubbed his forehead and checked the time on his phone.

Seeing the time displayed on my phone, it was only noon the next day, and I breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Just like creating mycelium out of thin air requires consuming the nutrients in its body.

Controlling the rapid growth of mycelium does come at a cost.

The price he paid was his energy.

At this moment, Yang Lin could clearly feel that the ten clusters of shiitake mushroom mycelium buried in the mountains and forests had turned into ten giants.

The ten enormous clusters of spiritual light, even the smallest of which was countless times larger than the chicken coop he had buried before.

If the termite mushroom mycelium buried before was like stars in the night sky.

So the ten shiitake mushroom mycelia he guided yesterday are like ten bright moons.

In Yang Lin's perception, the ten clumps of shiitake mushroom mycelium occupied an area of ​​almost one hundred square meters in the soil.

Such a terrifying area far exceeds the limits that most mycelia can reach.

It's important to know that artificially cultivated shiitake mushrooms can only have their mycelium covering the substrate, reaching a size of several tens of centimeters.

Even without the support of a substrate, a shiitake mushroom in nature can be considered enormous if its mycelium can cover an area of ​​several square meters.

No wonder I was so tired yesterday.

After determining the size of the shiitake mushroom, Yang Lin had a sudden realization.

Previously, when he manipulated the mycelium of termite mushrooms, he was always just doing small-scale operations.

Only a few mushrooms sprout sporadically in the mountains and forests.

At most, it will only cause the mycelium in one place to grow a dozen or twenty kilograms of mushrooms.

The maximum area covered by the mycelial network is no more than twenty square meters.

Moreover, he only manipulates one mycelium at a time.

Single-threaded control naturally doesn't consume too much effort.

It won't have any significant impact on him.

Controlling ten mycelia at once and keeping them growing at an accelerated rate is exhausting.

Although his forest wasn't covered in mycelium, Yang Lin wasn't discouraged at all.

The 800-mu area is divided into ten zones, with each zone being 80 mu in size.

That is, an area of ​​approximately 50,000 square meters.

His mycelium can expand from an area the size of a palm to an area of ​​hundreds of square meters within a day.

It's only a matter of time before we fill this 50,000 square meters.

Take a break, control the mycelium in only five areas at a time, balance work and rest, and take it slowly.

After working continuously for a week, Yang Lin has covered an area of ​​more than 1,000 square meters with shiitake mushroom mycelium in five areas.

A single mycelium can cover more than a thousand square meters, which is simply unbelievable.

The five clusters of spiritual light in his mind also became more solid.

The ability to sense these five clumps of mycelium has reached a whole new level.

Focusing his attention on a huge ball of light, Yang Lin quickly realized that, apart from the state of the mycelium itself...

Now, he can even sense some movements outside the mycelium.

Various insects, such as ants, crickets, and centipedes, rustled and moved about in this soil covered with mycelium.

Step, step, step...

From time to time, a vibration and a heavy pressure emanated from the top of the mycelium.

Those were the sounds made by the workers Yang Lin had hired while they were working on top of the mycelium soil.

"Incredible, absolutely incredible!" Yang Lin thought with wild joy.

Although he could only sense those movements that caused contact and influence on the mycelium.

But being able to sense movement on the outside of the mycelium is like a blind person suddenly opening their eyes.

By focusing his efforts on these five mycelia, each covering an area of ​​a thousand square meters, Yang Lin obtained roughly the same results.

As for the other five mycelia, each covering only a hundred square meters, only when one is highly focused can one barely detect some vague movements.

Not only do they get tired quickly, but the external environment they perceive is nowhere near as good as that of the mycelium in Qianping.

The remaining termite mushroom mycelium, buried in the wild mountains and forests, was so small that Yang Lin almost lost his mind and received no outside attention.

"Wait a minute, I remember this location is also within today's construction area, so why is there so little noise?"

As Yang Lin scanned the five clear clusters of sensory light, he suddenly noticed that the movement was less noticeable in one of the locations than in the others.

Out of curiosity, Yang Lin set off for the designated location.
