Noticing that the person who was watching had left, Yang Lin quickly summoned Sun Cheng and the forest farm employees on duty that day.

They told everyone that someone had come to the area to scout and keep watch, with ill intentions.

"Don't worry, boss, we'll be very careful guarding the forest tonight and won't let the bad guys succeed!"

Sun Cheng and several employees on duty immediately pledged their loyalty to Yang Lin, saying that they would guard against them and not give those guys any chance to take advantage of them.

No, let them come.

Yang Lin suddenly spoke up, rejecting everyone's patrol plan.

"Those guys are the ones who often steal mushrooms in the middle of the night. They've been causing trouble in my forest farm for more than just a day or two."

"I believe that the defenses inside can keep things under control for tonight and tomorrow night, and even for a longer period of time, but keeping them under control every day is not a sustainable solution."

"Over time, everyone gets exhausted, which makes it easier for bad guys to take advantage of the situation."

"Therefore, the best way is to bring this group of criminals to justice and make them face the punishment of the law."

Yang Lin quickly explained his plan to everyone.

He deliberately stored the cash in a room of the prefabricated house in front of the thieves who were staking out the place.

The intention was to use the 200,000 yuan as bait to lure thieves out and steal the cash.

In this way, he can submit evidence of the thieves' crimes and let the authorities deal with the group of thieves.

Overall, the security situation in China is quite good.

Even on a global scale, China's security is among the best.

Handing the thieves over to the authorities is the best course of action.

Typically, the crime rate and crime incidents in a place are caused by a small group of people.

Every place inevitably has a small group of bad apples, but such people are only a minority.

By eliminating that small group of people, the security situation in a place can be greatly improved.

From the sensations transmitted through the mycelium, Yang Lin already knew that ever since he started making money selling shiitake mushrooms at his forest farm, the group of thieves who liked to raid the farm at night were the same group who had disguised themselves as workers to scout the area today.

I believe that once these people are brought to justice, his forest farm will be able to rest for a long time.

"Relax a bit tonight, and lull those thieves and robbers into a false sense of security."

"If you encounter a thief, remember not to act impulsively. Just gather evidence to avoid them becoming desperate and getting hurt..."

"Okay, got it."

After understanding Yang Lin's plan to lure them into a trap, Sun Cheng and the others readily cooperated.

After recording videos with his phone in secluded spots inside and outside the room, he lazily went back to rest.

……

Meanwhile, Liu Budu and his friends were anxiously waiting for news at home.

Some time later, Zhang Mazi and Wang Laizi, who were in charge of scouting the forest, discovered the location of Yang Lin's cash deposit and rushed to Liu Budu's house, excitedly sharing the intelligence they had obtained from their scouting.

"Brother Liu, good news!"

"Yang Lin took a box of cash and put it in a prefabricated house inside the forest farm."

"That box looks quite heavy; it might cost several hundred thousand."

"If we can get our hands on the box, the brothers will be rich!"

"Really?" Liu Budu asked hesitantly after hearing Zhang Mazi and Wang Laizi's description. "Why would he need so much cash?"

He had been envious of Yang Lin for a long time, and since they lived in the same village, Liu Budu knew a little about Yang Lin's habits.

I know Yang Lin prefers to use mobile payment and doesn't like carrying cash.

I usually save any small amount of money I have in the bank.

The sudden appearance of so much cash lying idle inevitably aroused his suspicion.

"Really, Brother Liu, don't you trust us?"

Zhang Mazi and Wang Laizi continued, "He's going to hire even more workers tomorrow. That money was withdrawn in advance to pay the workers' wages."

"In that case, we only have a chance tonight?" someone in the crowd suddenly expressed their concern.

"If we don't act tonight, he'll take all the cash to pay the workers, and he'll definitely take the rest back to deposit. Then we won't have a chance to make our move."

Upon hearing this, everyone's breathing became somewhat rapid.

Yes, it's a rare opportunity.

If today passes, I'm afraid I won't encounter so much cash again next time.

"Brothers, get ready, we're making our move tonight."

Taking a deep breath, Liu Budu ultimately decided to take action tonight.

……

At 10 p.m., the night was as dark as ink.

Unlike big cities, small mountain villages have virtually no nightlife.

At this time, most households in the village have already turned off their lights and gone to sleep.

Even those who hadn't gone to sleep yet kept their doors tightly shut and were busy with their own things at home.

No one goes on an epileptic seizure while wandering around outside.

Liu Budu first peeked out of his house, walked around the village to make sure there were no people outside, then turned back home and notified his accomplices.

Soon, Zhang Mazi, Wang Laizi, and the others followed behind Liu Budu, carrying backpacks and pushing motorcycles with their hands, tiptoeing towards the forest farm.

"stop!"

"This is enough. Going any further might get you caught on camera by the forest farm's surveillance cameras."

About two hundred meters from the entrance to the forest farm, Liu Budu decisively called his companions to a halt.

Zhang Mazi, Wang Laizi, and the others understood each other and immediately took out their tools from their backpacks.

Seven pairs of gloves, seven pairs of headgear, and a set of screwdrivers.

A ball of starchy sausage, a pair of heavy-duty pliers and a pair of hydraulic shears, plus two watermelon knives.

Soon, Liu Budu and Zhang Mazi, along with the other six, put on hoods and gloves.

They each carried a tool for committing the crime.

"Ma Zi, you sneak in first and knock all the dogs in the kennel unconscious, so they won't bark later."

……

"So they really did come."

Meanwhile, just as Liu Budu and his accomplices were assembling their tools, Yang Lin, who was sleeping in the village, had already spotted them.

The mycelial network he planted in the forest farm has already extended beyond the forest farm itself.

Therefore, even before Liu Budu and his group had set foot in the forest, Yang Lin was already fully aware of their movements.

"Seven people came in total, one of whom was Liu Budu from the village..."

"They've started moving. Six men are on guard outside, and one has gone to the forest farm in this direction. Is he heading to the kennel?"

Yang Lin immediately understood that the other party wanted to start with the dogs to prevent them from waking up the forest farm staff on duty.

Although it's unclear what methods the other party intends to use to deal with the pack of dogs, since they dared to go alone, they must have something to rely on.

Then, Yang Lin had an idea.

Suddenly, a few tiny mushrooms sprouted from the ground. These mushrooms were exceptionally small, less than an inch off the ground, yet they landed right at the feet of all the dogs.

Inside the kennel, a group of lazy, sprawling mongrels suddenly sprang to life.

They all let go of their claws and headed deeper into the forest.

When Zhang Mazi arrived at the kennel, it was completely empty.
