"Old Wu, Xiao Zhou, what are you doing?"
As soon as they left the office, Wu Dagang and Zhou Ziwen met the oncoming captain.
Although he was a little upset because of the quota, when facing Zhou Ziwen, he still forced a smile.
"Old Zhou, do you know how many kilograms this guy said his batch of mushrooms weighed?" Wu Dagang asked excitedly.
“How many pounds?” The captain was a little curious.
Judging from Wu Dagang's excited look, they knew that this batch of mushrooms definitely exceeded their expectations.
“Six thousand jins, old Zhou, a whole six thousand jins!”
Looking at Wu Dagang’s red face, Zhou Ziwen was a little worried, whether the old man would memorize it if he continued to be so excited. Get over it.
“So many?” The captain was stunned and looked at Zhou Ziwen in disbelief.
“Just a little more.” Zhou Ziwen affirmed.
"Let's go take a look." The captain made a quick decision and pulled Zhou Ziwen towards the mushroom room.
Being pulled by the two men, Zhou Ziwen was a little helpless. How could these two old men have the same virtue?
Is this considered the same lineage?
All the way to the mushroom room, Wu Dagang and the captain went in first.
Fortunately, the members of the Mushroom Team are not sneaky people, and they are carefully taking care of their respective areas.
If you see them being lazy, you will probably have to eat a lot.
"Captain."
"Secretary Wu."
"Team Leader Zhou."
Seeing them, the team members greeted them one after another.
"You are busy with your own business, don't worry about us." The captain and Wu Dagang waved their hands.
"Xiao Zhou, can these mushrooms be eaten?" Wu Dagang asked.
“Yes, mushrooms are not poisonous, so you can eat them anytime.” Zhou Ziwen said.
"Okay, you pick one out first, and we weigh it." Wu Dagang said.
"Okay." Zhou Ziwen nodded, and then said to Liu Dawei and Wang Dayou next to him: "Dawei, Dayou, you guys find a basket and come over and find a scale. Let's weigh it."
"Okay."
Liu Dawei and Wang Dayou hurriedly stopped what they were doing, turned and left the mushroom room.
After a while, the two of them brought the basket and scale.
Zhou Ziwen was quick with his hands and feet, and he picked one square meter of mushrooms in a short time.
"I'll weigh you." The captain couldn't wait any longer. He snatched the scale from Wang Dayou's hand and weighed himself.
"Twenty-seven kilograms and three liang, how much does the basket weigh?" the captain turned and asked.
“Three catties and six taels.” Wang Dayou on the side replied hurriedly.
"Twenty-seven catties and three taels, minus three catties and six taels..."
"Twenty-three catties and seven taels." Zhou Ziwen said silently beside him.
"Yes, it's twenty-three pounds and seven taels. Good guy, Xiao Zhou, your mushrooms are growing so well!" the captain praised loudly.
"Thanks to the support of the captain, Uncle Wu and all the leaders, without you, there would be no mushroom house. I just follow the instructions of the leaders." Zhou Ziwen smiled and boasted. Anyway, good words don't cost money, and if you say more, you won't be offended. A piece of meat.
"Haha, that's good, but you are the biggest contributor. Don't worry, we won't take all your credit. What's yours is yours." The captain laughed happily.
Wu Dagang next to him also had a smile on his face. "Hehe!" Zhou Ziwen also touched his head and giggled.
The mushrooms he grows have real benefits to the village. The successful cultivation of this batch of mushrooms means that the village will have an additional profitable pillar industry in the future.
In this era, individuals cannot do business, but it does not say that production teams cannot do business.
Of course, the production team cannot openly say that it is doing business, but that it exchanges what it has and exchanges things with other units in the county.
As for how to operate this, it is up to the captain and Wu Dagang.
Anyway, these people are all human beings, and they know the secrets inside very well, so Zhou Ziwen doesn’t need to worry about them.
Having brought such huge benefits to the village, can the village’s attitude towards him be bad?
Not to mention the village, it is estimated that within a few days, the leaders of the county will hear his name.
This is not nonsense by Zhou Ziwen. When all the mushrooms are sold, the village will definitely report it. This is a great achievement. There is no reason to hide such a shameless thing.
And it cannot be hidden. Any income and expenditure in the village must be recorded. If the records are not clear, what awaits the village will not be credit, but punishment.
"Well, you all grew these mushrooms. Since they have been picked, you can divide them among yourself!" Looking at the white and tender mushrooms in the basket, the captain said.
“Thank you, Captain.”
"Captain is mighty."
When they heard that there was such a benefit, the team members immediately cheered.
They really wanted to try the difference between the mushrooms they grew themselves and those picked outside.
"Captain and Uncle Wu, let's try it too and see how the mushrooms we grew ourselves taste like!" Zhou Ziwen has a discerning eye.
Although the captain and Wu Dagang didn’t ask for it, he had to give it!
"That's not okay. You want me to make mistakes!" The captain shook his head repeatedly.
"What's here? I have to try this mushroom to see if it tastes good or not! Only by tasting it will you know whether it's good or not!" Zhou Ziwen didn't wait for him to refuse and started to distribute the mushrooms directly.
Actually, Zhou Ziwen is a little tired of this stuff.
After all, he often runs to the mountains and comes back picking some mushrooms every time.
To this day, if he encounters unpalatable mushrooms, he doesn’t like to pick them.
The captain and Wu Dagang could not refuse, so they had no choice but to accept.
But after this experience, Zhou Ziwen found that their smiles became more obvious.
It was still working time, and he definitely couldn’t give the mushrooms to them like this, so Zhou Ziwen found two team members next to them and asked them to deliver them to them when they went home.
Seeing the yield of this batch of mushrooms with their own eyes, the team leader and Wu Dagang left with excitement.
They need to quickly contact the county office to sell, um, exchange these mushrooms.
According to Zhou Ziwen, these mushrooms will be fully mature in one or two days. The mushrooms at this time are the freshest. If it is later, the mushrooms will become old and the taste will not be so good.
The captain and Wu Dagang were convinced of this. After all, Zhou Ziwen was the one who knew mushrooms best.
When the captain and Wu Dagang left, Zhou Ziwen did not stay in the mushroom room for long, and left after saying a few words.
Of course, before leaving, he also distributed the mushrooms. Except for the captain and Wu Dagang, who each had three kilograms, everyone else shared the rest equally.
After all, each person got about a pound and a half.
As the team leader, Zhou Ziwen's share is slightly more, about two pounds.
Zhou Ziwen didn't care either. He had plenty of these at home, and most of the ones he couldn't finish were dried into dried mushrooms.
Not to mention, dried mushrooms are very fresh when used to stew soup, and taste better than meat! (End of this chapter)
