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

Suddenly, several strangers appeared in the work team, and Li Laosi was dismissed as a warning to others.

The atmosphere in the mountains and forests has become somewhat different from usual.

The villagers who came to work suddenly began to realize that Yang Lin, whom they had once looked down upon, was not as simple as they had imagined.

It seems quite capable of accomplishing something.

Putting aside their disdain, everyone continued with their work.

The few strong men hired from the county town, though few in number, created a "catfish effect" among the crowd.

Although these people live in the county town, even in the most prosperous places, there are still poor people.

Their lives are not necessarily better than those of the villagers.

They didn't want to do anything carelessly and were afraid of losing their jobs.

Their positive work attitude reassured some villagers who were wavering.

The villagers, who were originally simple and honest, were not affected in any way.

Because they are hardworking and honest, they are worthy of Yang Linfa's wages and their own conscience.

……

The location is determined by the employee ID badge and the signals transmitted from underground mycelium.

Yang Lin was able to know the working conditions of each worker almost at all times.

It must be said that the vast majority of workers are quite hardworking.

Whether it was the villagers in the village or the employees he hired from the county, none of them were exempt.

Yang Lin was very satisfied with their hard work.

However, even with the example of Li Laosi being asked to leave, it's inevitable that a few bad apples will still appear in the labor teams in the mountains.

Especially Liu Budu and Chen Ergou.

They've taken the art of cheating and slyness to the extreme.

The two of them were quite pleased with themselves, thinking that they had gotten away with it without anyone noticing.

Little did they know that, with the dual abilities of mycelial positioning on their bodies and underground mycelial sensing, all of their little tricks were exposed to Yang Lin.

In the afternoon, as it was almost time to finish work, Zhao Tie found Yang Lin first.

He reported to Yang Lin on today's personnel arrangements and the progress of the work.

"Boss, Liu Budu isn't a good fit. I suggest we replace him."

On his very first day here, Zhao Tie, based on his observations and the results of his work, identified an unqualified candidate for Yang Lin.

Yang Lin nodded, acknowledging Zhao Tie's abilities, and then spoke:

"Besides Liu Budu, there's another one named Chen Ergou."

"When we finish work later, settle their wages and tell them they don't need to come anymore."

"Okay, boss, I understand," Zhao Tie replied firmly.

He didn't ask Chen Ergou what mistake he had made, nor did he ask Yang Lin why he kicked Chen Ergou out.

Because he used to lead a team and was a boss.

When you're a boss, you know what makes a good employee.

As long as it's within the normal scope of work, what to do and how to decide is the boss's business.

His task was to complete what the boss had set for him.

Therefore, when it was time to finish work, Liu Budu and Chen Ergou were quickly asked by Zhao Tie to leave the team.

They should not have to come to the mountains to work anymore after tomorrow.

Despite their resentment, the two threw a tantrum and threatened and intimidated Zhao Tie.

Zhao Tie has never revealed that kicking out Er Gou was Yang Lin's idea.

He only said that during his supervision, he found that the two were unqualified.

Even after dusk, when Liu Budu and Chen Ergou came to Yang Lin's door with their belongings, trying to use Yang Lin's connections to ask him to allow them to continue working in the mountains out of consideration for their fellow villagers, Zhao Tie always kept a straight face and voiced his objections.

Yang Lin also knew that now was definitely not the time to be soft-hearted.

Once this door is opened, the two most cunning and deceitful people will be allowed to return to the workforce.

Those who work diligently and honestly in the forest must feel wronged.

Those opportunists in the village will also begin to look down on Yang Lin.

Gradually, they became like Liu Budu and others, cheating and shirking their duties within the team, creating a vicious cycle.

As a result, he busied himself hiring help in the county town, squeezing seven or eight people into his originally spacious home, which ultimately turned out to be nothing but a joke.

Despite Zhao Tie's objections, Yang Lin never allowed Liu Budu and the other man to return to work.

"You win!"

"Xiaolin, you trust an outsider, but you don't trust us."

After uttering a few harsh words in frustration, Liu Budu and Chen Ergou slunk away from Yang Lin's house.

News of their failed attempt to use connections quickly spread throughout the village.

People's eyes are sharp.

These two men had a long history of vices, including gambling, drinking, and womanizing, and their reputation in the village was already not good.

Yang Lin's actions of not showing favoritism and not helping his fellow villagers with special favors did not arouse resentment among the villagers.

On the contrary, this incident subtly elevated the villagers' opinion of Yang Lin.

Without the interference of rat droppings, the working atmosphere in the mountains and forests has completely improved.

Having witnessed Zhao Tie's abilities and professional ethics, Yang Lin couldn't help but feel that he had struck gold.

After entrusting Zhao Tie with some personnel management and other trivial matters, she focused most of her energy on mycelial cultivation.

In the soil of the mountains and forests, the mycelium of shiitake mushrooms, which had been dormant for a long time, became active again.

Time passed peacefully like this.

The transformation of the woodland has been carried out step by step, gradually shedding its wild appearance.

While the workers were toiling, the mycelium buried beneath the soil was also developing silently and expanding outwards.

The area occupied by the mycelium gradually increases.

One thousand square meters, two thousand square meters... ten thousand square meters.

After more than a month, it was June.

The basic transformation of the mountain forest that Yang Lin contracted has been completed.

The road is connected to water and electricity.

Cameras are randomly placed on the trees to deter criminals.

It barely resembles a privately owned forest farm.

Beneath the soil of the forest farm lies a massive network of mycelium, even more effective than a monitoring device, capable of ignoring circuits and communication signals and monitoring the forest farm 24/7.

Under Yang Lin's dedicated cultivation, the five largest mycelia have grown to a scale of more than 30,000 square meters.

A single mycelium can cover nearly fifty acres.

The super-large mycelium covering nearly fifty acres can provide a much higher level of sensor clarity than that of a thousand square meters.

As long as he wanted to, without mentioning the slightest movement or clue, anyone who stepped onto the mycelial soil, regardless of their weight, strength, foot size, walking habits, or walking speed, would be able to escape Yang Lin's perception.

The total area covered by the mycelium is approximately 214 acres.

It is roughly one-third the size of the forest farm.

In other words, of Yang Lin's 800 mu forest farm, more than 200 mu are already ready to sprout mushrooms and produce shiitake mushrooms.

He has successfully taken the first step on his entrepreneurial journey.

With these 200-plus acres of shiitake mushroom fields, he no longer needs to secretly pick termite mushrooms to exchange for money.
