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

Perhaps he had never discussed such a large business deal before.

After the purchase price and quantity of the mushroom spawn were finalized, the village chief and Wang Lu and others became uneasy.

The village chief held the enamel water cup in both hands and silently did a multiplication calculation, realizing that 500,000 mushroom spawn would require a huge sum of 1.2 million yuan. His heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason.

Holding the cup, the village chief's hand trembled slightly. He turned to look at Wang Li, Wang Lu, and the other village cadres, and spoke hesitantly.

"Um... Cadre Wang, and the village representatives, do you have any further thoughts or opinions regarding the order from the village cooperative to Xianglong Biotechnology Co., Ltd."

"I'm here mainly to observe and witness, so the village chief doesn't need to worry about me," Wang Li said.

Although she was sent to the countryside with a poverty alleviation mission, she was, after all, a civil servant.

It's best not to get too involved in business dealings, lest something goes wrong and the disciplinary committee comes after you.

The main reason for coming here with the village chief and others is to learn about the village's industrial development.

Wang Lu and Wang Youcai exchanged glances, looking somewhat reserved, unsure of what to say.

If even the village chief had no experience with such a large business, then these ordinary villagers naturally had even less experience.

"Um... Mr. Lin, are the mushroom spawn sticks your company sells the same as the mushroom spawn used in your forest farm?"

After a moment of silence, Wang Youcai, seeing the awkward atmosphere, finally spoke slowly.

"Uncle Wang, don't worry, it's absolutely the same strain of fungi I use in the forest farm."

……

Just as Yang Lin was introducing the mushroom strain again, the village chief and Wang Lu and others were also silently making their own plans.

Yang Lin's forest farm can earn more than 20,000 to almost 30,000 yuan per mu, which is obvious to everyone in the village.

According to Yang Lin, the reason why his understory mushroom cultivation was so successful is...

It's all because of the use of special bacterial strains.

Whether this was Yang Lin's excuse or not, the mushrooms in the forest farm just grew well.

They had all done farm work.

Therefore, they all clearly understand that a good seed plays a crucial role in the harvest.

They knew exactly what the shiitake mushrooms in Yang Lin's 800 acres of forest looked like.

I don't know what variety it is, but not only is the yield high, the quality of the shiitake mushrooms is also unusually good.

This alone is enough to tell that the fungal strains used in the forest farm must be of good quality.

Because of inferior bacterial strains, no matter how well the management is done, no good bacteria will grow.

If it is a cooperative's forest farm, it can achieve the same production results as Yanglin Private Forest Farm.

Even after deducting costs, one mu (unit of land area) can still earn a gross profit of several thousand yuan.

If managed well, one mu (unit of land area) can earn more than 10,000 yuan.

If they could develop all 1,000 acres of mountain forest in the village, their village could earn several million yuan a year.

From then on, the impoverished village transformed into a well-off village, and it became commonplace for every household to own a car.

The young people in the family no longer have to suffer the hardship of leaving their hometown to work in other provinces.

Spend more time with your children and the elderly.

Upon reaching this point, Wang Lu and Wang Youcai felt a surge of excitement.

"If that's the case, I agree to this order."

"I agree..."

Several village representatives raised their hands to vote in support of the order reached between the village chief and Yang Lin.

"I have a question, and I hope Mr. Lin won't take offense."

Seeing everyone supporting Yang Lin, the usually composed village secretary suddenly asked:

"Mr. Lin previously said that as long as there is a normal level of management, the fruiting rate of the mushroom spawn will be over 95%."

"I trust General Manager Lin in this regard, but I wonder what kind of management would be considered a normal level of management?"

The village party secretary raised his own questions.

After all, judging management ability is far too subjective.

Many fraudulent companies exploit this issue.

They sell inferior goods as superior ones, using the guise of high profits and high buyback prices to deceive farmers into engaging in planting or breeding industries.

Farmers are told to buy inferior seeds and seedlings from their company at high prices, with a promise that each seedling will earn them a certain amount of money.

After farmers invest in seedlings and seedlings, they lose everything.

Fraudulent companies will then jump to conclusions from a technical standpoint, claiming that the farmers' lack of technical skills is the cause of their losses.

For example, the feed given on a certain day was not a certified qualified product of their company.

One day, when watering crops, the water temperature was incorrect—too high or too low—or the watering posture or method was wrong, causing the crops to drown.

Or perhaps the farmers didn't wash their hands or bodies properly while working, leading to the outbreak of disease...

The fraudulent company's statement, though not what's said online—"If you walk in with your left foot today, you'll die right here"—is quite different.

All of these statements are reasonable, well-founded, and based on scientific evidence.

However, even if a great immortal were to come, it would probably be difficult to be meticulous, flawless, and achieve perfect merit throughout the entire planting and breeding process.

Or rather, to prevent the fraudulent company from finding any reason or excuse.

"I apologize if I spoke poorly, Mr. Lin."

"Business is business. The market is a mixed bag, and the secretary's concerns are for the sake of the village's industries." Yang Lin didn't seem to care about the village secretary's questions.

Because the "normal level" he mentioned wasn't nitpicking or being overly critical.

Instead, he wanted the mushroom farmers who bought the spawn from him to at least put in some effort and appear to be normal mushroom farmers.

Because any strain of bacteria that comes out of his hands has no reason not to grow.

The mycelium he planted in the forest farm has already covered an area of ​​over a thousand acres.

Within this range, the expansion of mycelium has also faced many challenges.

Various bacteria in nature, pests and diseases in the soil, and extremely poor soil in some areas...

Under his subjective control, the shiitake mushroom mycelium overcame these difficulties one by one.

Today, the shiitake mushroom mycelium he created has achieved a level 2 environmental adaptability enhancement and a level 2 disease resistance.

Unless someone deliberately causes trouble, such as buying the bacteria and then intentionally exposing it to the sun, not watering it, or throwing it into a pond to feed the fish.

Roast it over a fire today, and put it in the freezer tomorrow.

Otherwise, you can simply open the bag of the mushroom sticks after taking them back, allowing the mushroom spawn inside to come into contact with the oxygen and moisture from the outside world.

His strains can grow successfully in most environments that humans can adapt to, and produce fruiting bodies.

To avoid the bacteria strain becoming too overpowered, Yang Lin added a few normal management requirements.

Control the sale of strains to preserve their environmental adaptability and disease resistance within a primary range.

In this way, mushroom farmers who bought his spawn could achieve a fruiting rate of over 99% on their spawn logs, unless they deliberately did something reckless.

"Secretary of the Party Committee, Village Chief, uncles and elders, you all know how my forest farm is managed, right?"

Yang Lin glanced around and asked.

Everyone nodded.

"That makes things simple," Yang Lin said.

"My forest farm has hired many villagers. If the cooperative can hire these people and use the same level of expertise they have in managing my forest farm to manage the village cooperative's forest farm, it will be at a normal level."

"If the mushrooms don't sprout by then, I, Yang Lin, am a resident of Qingshan Village. I can run away, but I can't hide..."
