Era: Seven money-losing girls? They're trying to trick me into having a daughter again!

"Don't be angry, wife, you be angry first!"

Seeing Wu Shaoli panting heavily with anger, Fang Wei quickly reached out and patted her back to help her catch her breath. "Let me finish what I have to say, okay?"

"OK!"

Wu Shaoli glared at him through gritted teeth and whispered, "What other reasons do you have? Just tell me everything!"

"Well, that's how it is."

Fang Wei knew that Wu Shaoli would definitely object to his plan to contract the old forest farm, so he had already prepared his response in advance.

"Do you remember that day, the day I went up the mountain and hunted the rabbit?"

"……Remember."

On that very day, Fang Wei suddenly said he wanted to live a good life with her. He even went up the mountain to hunt rabbits and exchanged them for cornmeal and pork cracklings for her and her daughters to eat.

How could Wu Shaoli possibly forget such an important day?

"Then, that very night, just as I was about to fall asleep..."

Fang Wei leaned close to his wife's ear, looking rather mysterious, and said, "I suddenly heard a very faint sound."

"The voice told me that there was a wild Ganoderma lucidum on the mountain and that I should go and pick it quickly."

"At first I didn't believe it, thinking I was just half asleep, but then I thought, what if it really is? If someone else picks it, wouldn't I be at a huge loss!"

"So that night I climbed the mountain and searched and searched, and lo and behold! I actually found a wild Ganoderma lucidum!"

"..."

Wu Shaoli was truly stunned. Seeing Fang Wei speaking with such seriousness, she couldn't help but reach out and touch his forehead.

"Are you running a fever and it's made your head spin?"

That doesn't make sense either. This person has looked very energetic these past two days, showing no signs of illness whatsoever.

"……No."

Fang Wei grabbed his wife's hand with a hint of helplessness. "I'm telling the truth."

"Actually, the little rabbit I caught that day was something I heard that voice say while I was sleeping."

He tilted his head slightly towards the kitchen.

"And the turtle I caught in the river on the mountain this morning, that voice told me about it last night when I was sleeping."

"Fang Wei, are you crazy?"

Wu Shaoli still looked incredulous, but asked with concern, "If there's something wrong with your head, we'll go to the hospital to get it checked out!"

"..."

Fang Wei pouted, speechless. "Honey, I'm perfectly fine. I'm not crazy."

"Think about it carefully. How could someone like me, who hasn't been up a mountain in years, suddenly find so many good things on the mountain?"

"If there hadn't been some kind of instruction, I would never have been able to find them."

"So you're being haunted by some kind of filth?"

Wu Shaoli was a little scared, but she still said, "If all else fails, let's find a master to come to our house and take a look!"

"...Look closely into my eyes."

Fang Wei cupped his wife's face in his hands and said seriously, "Do you think my behavior these past few days has made me seem like a mentally unstable person?"

"..." It does look somewhat similar.

Wu Shaoli's expression turned somewhat strange as she thought about Fang Wei's unusual behavior over the past two days.

"A mentally unstable person would think of doing that kind of thing with you?!"

Seeing that she actually seemed to agree with what he had just said, Fang Wei became furious. "I already said, I don't want to live that kind of awful life anymore!"

"I just want to live a good life with you and our daughters!"

Wu Shaoli blushed, couldn't help but punch Fang Wei lightly, and hesitated for a moment before asking, "You said you hear sounds when you're asleep, what do those sounds sound like?"

"Uh, well, well..."

Fang Wei frowned and said with a troubled expression, "It sounds like the sound of the earth."

"???"

Wu Shaoli looked puzzled.

What do you mean by a sound like the earth? When has the earth ever made a sound?! Is Fang Wei really not out of his mind?!

"That's why I told you I think my fortune lies in the mountains."

Fang Wei deliberately ignored Wu Shaoli's expression and said with great confidence, "That voice also told me before that there is a large area of ​​wild gastrodia elata growing in that old forest."

"That thing isn't cheap; it can sell for quite a bit of money!"

"Gastrodia elata?"

Wu Shaoli frowned. "Why would gastrodia elata grow in there out of nowhere?"

"I don't know either."

Fang Wei didn't seem to care, but emphasized, "Anyway, it was that voice that told me. To avoid the villagers noticing anything amiss, I haven't gone inside to check."

"Is this why you want to lease that old forest?"

Wu Shaoli simply couldn't understand it.

Just for a strange sound and a patch of wild gastrodia elata of unknown size, they actually spent hundreds of yuan to contract more than 200 acres of wasteland.

This is a completely unprofitable deal!

"Of course not."

How could Fang Wei possibly spend so much money to contract a wasteland that has been abandoned for many years just because of a patch of wild gastrodia elata?

"That's what I think. The things that voice tells me are always up in the mountains."

"If I go up the mountain every day and manage to find some good stuff every day, the villagers will definitely realize something is wrong sooner or later."

"So I thought I'd just contract that old forest farm, that way I'd have a reason to go up the mountain every day and it wouldn't arouse suspicion."

Fang Wei put his arm around Wu Shaoli's waist and said earnestly.

"Besides, I really want to find a proper job, otherwise, if that voice disappears one day, how will my family make a living?"

"Can……"

Wu Shaoli still didn't quite believe what Fang Wei had just said.

"That's over two hundred acres of wasteland! The annual lease fee is over a hundred yuan. Can our family really earn that much just by relying on that voice command you mentioned?"

"It's definitely not just about that voice."

Fang Wei felt that the things the voice pointed out could only improve his family's life, but could not make him rich.

"After leasing that piece of wasteland, I naturally need to figure out how to make money from it."

"Farming? Can you even do that?"

It's no wonder Wu Shaoli didn't trust Fang Wei. The few acres of land her father-in-law left behind were all lost when Fang Wei got carried away gambling, leaving only a small plot.

"Fang Wei, no matter how I think about it, I still think your idea won't work!"

"Think about it, how many people have planted trees in that old forest, and everything they planted just died!"

"If you really pour all your money into it and things still don't improve, then our family is finished!"

"I'm definitely not good at farming, and I don't plan to do it myself."

Fang Wei had already thought about this matter.

"Once the contract is signed, I'll bring some things from the mountains to sell, and I'll try to invite some agricultural experts to take a look and see what's suitable to grow in that old forest area!"
