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

In just a few days, the gross income reached 1.2 million.

This was absolutely the largest sum of money Yang Lin had ever seen in his two lifetimes.

Even after paying the villagers' wages and distributing the salaries and bonuses to Zhao Tie and others, Yang Lin still had a huge sum of 1.02 million yuan left in his account.

"One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, the seven digits before the decimal point, so satisfying."

As Yang Lin counted the amount in his account, he was overjoyed.

Quantity truly is king.

The decision to grow shiitake mushrooms was the right one.

After going around in circles, it is now July 2016.

He has been in this world for more than two months, almost three months.

July is the peak season for wild mushroom growth in Nanzhao.

The prices of various wild mushrooms have stabilized.

Recently, the market retail price of termite mushrooms has remained at around 130 yuan per kilogram, similar to previous years.

The purchase price of termite mushrooms also fluctuates around 100 yuan per kilogram.

If he hadn't chosen to cultivate shiitake mushrooms, but instead continued to collect leftover termite mushrooms in the mountains and sell them piecemeal, then...

To earn a million, he estimated he would need to harvest about 10,000 catties of termite mushrooms.

Not to mention the impact that 10,000 jin of termite mushrooms will have on the wild mushroom trading market in Nanzhao Province.

Just the effort of going in and out of the mountains and handling 10,000 jin of matsutake mushrooms would be too much for his small frame.

With a huge sum of one million yuan in his pocket, Yang Lin once again arrived in Wuyou County.

People who suddenly receive a large sum of money are prone to retaliatory spending.

As luck would have it, Yang Lin came to the county town today to spend money.

A knock-off phone with a loudspeaker? Replace it!

Switch to the Dragon Kingdom Glory brand, the flagship black and gold version priced at 8888.

Wearing cheap, no-name clothes that cost only a few dozen yuan? Change them!

Replace them with genuine Arlette clothing that costs several hundred or several thousand yuan per piece.

Change your shoes!

I'll switch to bamboo dragonflies that cost 3,800 yuan a pair.

A car? Buy it!

Buy a...

"Wait, I don't think I have a Class C driver's license in this world, so even if I buy a car, I can't drive it."

"I can only continue riding motorcycles and driving tricycles."

He changed all his clothes, then suddenly realized he didn't have a driver's license and couldn't drive a car.

Yang Lin's enthusiasm for buying a car was suddenly doused with a bucket of cold water.

"Forget it, a few hundred thousand won't buy a decent car. I'll get a driver's license first, and we'll talk about it later."

Yang Lin quickly calmed down.

Unlike motorcycle licenses, car licenses are subject to much stricter regulations.

It's not that easy; you can't just pay someone a thousand dollars to pull strings and get it done.

Basically, he still needs to go to a proper driving school and get his driver's license.

I remember when I was getting my motorcycle license last time, Attorney Cheng told me that Shunxin Driving School in the east of the city was quite reliable.

Why not just enroll at Shunxin Driving School and learn to drive and take the test whenever you have time?

Ring ring... Ring ring.

The phone rang; it was an unfamiliar number.

Yang Lin assumed it was the buyer who hadn't been notified and answered the call casually.

"Feed?"

"Sir, are you looking to buy a house? We have some of the latest options here..."

"unnecessary."

Yang Lin hung up the phone decisively, and not long after, another unknown number called.

"Sir, would you like to learn about commercial insurance?"

Beep... (hangs up)

A moment later, the phone rang again.

"Congratulations! You've won five million on your phone! A verification code will be sent shortly. Reply with the verification code to claim your prize immediately..."

"Only five million? I wouldn't even bother to look at it." After hanging up another harassing call, Yang Lin looked rather helpless.

I don't know why.

He only spent a little money in the county town, but it's like the whole world knows he's rich now.

Selling houses and insurance is one thing.

He was being targeted by scam calls from northern Myanmar.

Does he look that easy to fool?

Is information leaking this fast in this world?

Which part of the process went wrong?

But now he can't be like he was when he first arrived, all alone, with nothing, and not afraid of missing any phone calls.

Simply set it to Do Not Disturb to block all unfamiliar calls and get rid of them all at once.

He is now managing a forest farm, and potential buyers may contact him at any time. He also has employees reporting various situations to him, and he needs to cooperate with the government.

He couldn't possibly memorize everyone's phone number, nor could he guarantee that those numbers wouldn't change.

Do not casually turn on Do Not Disturb; block all calls from unknown numbers.

Otherwise, if a dangerous emergency occurs one day and others cannot contact him, it will be a big problem.

"Ugh... this is such a hassle."

"It's true that having money doesn't necessarily bring happiness."

"I envy the carefree days of the past, when I only earned two or three thousand a day."

After muttering a few words to himself, Yang Lin quickly set up blocking rules on his new phone.

All those from overseas are blocked, because his business has not yet expanded abroad.

「400」开头、95开头的长段号码、「+」开头、170和171开头的，106开头的，统统拦截。

Virtual numbers, callers are not displayed.

I will not answer any of these numbers.

Because they have a very, very, very high probability of being nuisance or scam calls.

Of course, we can't generalize about all these phone numbers; there might be some legitimate ones among them.

However, in normal life, most people will not receive calls from these legitimate numbers.

The calls you receive are not legitimate.

Sure enough, after setting up the blocking rules and automatically rejecting various blocked numbers, Yang Lin's phone instantly became quiet.

I arrived at the driving school smoothly, paid the registration fee of four thousand yuan, and successfully registered at the driving school.

The driving school has a very flexible schedule and does not mandate specific study time for students.

The validity period is one year. Within this year, students can come to the driving school whenever they are free and queue up for driving practice.

After completing the corresponding subject test, the driving school will organize students to take the second or third subject test.

Until the student obtains their driver's license.

During this period, students do not need to pay any other fees besides the exam registration fee and meal expenses.

Ring ring... Ring ring...

After observing the driving school for a while, Yang Lin's phone rang again.

This time it wasn't a harassing call, but rather a call from the village chief.

"Village chief, what's the matter?"

"Xiao Lin, our village is planning to set up a cooperative to cultivate mushrooms under the forest canopy. We'd like to ask you for advice. Would it be convenient for you to do so...?"

The village chief asked in a humble tone, very cautiously.

As the saying goes, "competitors are enemies." To open a cooperative for cultivating mushrooms under the forest canopy next to Yang Lin, one still needs to ask Yang Lin for guidance.

It's somewhat like they're stealing business from people and even provoking them.

But in the past few days, the villagers have become envious of Yang Lin's earnings of over a million yuan.

I can't suppress my thoughts.

There are also tasks relayed from higher levels by the poverty alleviation office: to develop local specialty industries, increase rural income, and eliminate poverty... There is pressure everywhere.

Even he, as the village chief, was forced to the forefront to negotiate with Yang Lin.
