Chapter 23 Let’s go together
"Mom, Xiaofan said that the more than 1,000 yuan he has is money he earned himself. Is that true?"
Although Lin Fan assured her that the money was definitely not from the Ye family, Lin Shuhan was still somewhat uneasy.
So he casually asked Liu Chunlian, who was standing next to him.
Upon hearing this, the others present also showed interest and looked at Liu Chunlian.
Liu Chunlian was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lin Fan in shock and said, "Third brother, are your wild mushrooms and pheasants really that valuable? Can they sell for more than a thousand yuan?"
Liu Chunlian only knew that Lin Fan had made some money selling wild mushrooms and pheasants near the hospital these past two days, but as for the ginseng, Lin Fan hadn't had a chance to tell them yet.
Seeing that everyone was very curious, especially the eldest sister, who really didn't want Lin Fan's money to be "ill-gotten".
So Lin Fan didn't hide it from them and shook his head with a smile, "Mom, you're overthinking it. How much money can you make selling wild mushrooms and pheasants? I've only made a little over two hundred yuan in the past two days."
"The rest of the money came from a few old ginseng roots I found on the mountain, which I sold to the hospital for a little over a thousand yuan!"
As Lin Fan spoke, he reached into his pocket, pulled out a small cloth bag containing ginseng, and opened it to show everyone.
"Look, I specially saved one plant so that I can use it to make a medicinal soup with the prescription the doctor gave me to nourish Shuying!"
Brother-in-law Zhang Weihao and adoptive father Lin Desheng were shocked upon hearing this, but said nothing more.
The eldest sister, however, couldn't sit still any longer. She stood up and moved closer to Lin Fan, carefully examining the ginseng in his hand.
"Such a small thing, it can sell for so much money?"
Lin Fan said with a smile, "Big sister, this old ginseng is a top-quality medicinal herb. If you were to sell just one, it could fetch four or five hundred yuan!"
"I reckon this treasure is probably the only one growing on the mountains near my home, and it's incredibly precious!"
Lin Desheng bit his lip and looked at Lin Fan with some envy, saying, "You found such a precious thing."
"I never knew you had this ability before. If this thing were placed in front of me, we probably wouldn't recognize it. There are so many weeds in the mountains, I might just think it's a worthless grass root and pluck it up."
Just as everyone was amazed at how valuable such a small ginseng could be, Lin Shuying tugged at Lin Fan's sleeve and whispered, "Why don't you sell this one too?"
"Give it to me, that's a waste."
Upon hearing this, everyone finally realized what was happening.
Lin Fan had just said that he would brew the medicinal herbs, which were worth several hundred yuan, for Lin Shuying to drink.
For these country folk, the most expensive medicine they've ever taken for a minor ailment like a headache or fever is the kind prescribed by the clinic, costing only a few cents per pill, and that's considered quite expensive.
They wouldn't even dare to dream of using such a precious item worth several hundred yuan as medicine!
"no!"
"The doctor said you are very weak and even somewhat anemic. If left untreated, it could become serious. This old ginseng is a very nourishing food, it's perfect for you!"
Lin Fan frowned slightly and spoke with a serious expression.
Seeing that Lin Shuying still seemed somewhat reluctant to accept it, Lin Fan persuaded her again, "I know you care about the money, but no matter how important money is, it's not as important as life, is it?"
"If you get your health back, you won't need to go to the hospital anymore, which will naturally save you money. Otherwise, a trip to the hospital like this time cost almost a thousand yuan, which is even more wasteful, isn't it?"
Lin Shuhan, who was standing nearby, also offered a word of advice.
"Xiao Fan is right. If it's for our health, then let's eat it!"
"By the way, Mom, Xiaofan, you just said you've made over two hundred yuan these past few days just selling wild mushrooms and pheasants. Is that true?"
While everyone was still amazed by the preciousness of wild ginseng, they momentarily forgot about the income Lin Fan had mentioned from selling wild mushrooms and pheasants.
Lin Shuhan was quick-witted and realized what was happening at that moment!
Although two hundred yuan is nothing compared to the value of these wild animals, it is still a huge sum of money for them.
How can you make so much money just by selling wild mushrooms and pheasants?
"That's right, wild mushrooms can sell for 1.5 yuan a pound, and pheasants can sell for 12 yuan a pound!"
"I've been quite lucky these past two days. I've gone into the mountains to catch pheasants and haven't come back empty-handed, so I've made some money."
Seeing Lin Fan's smiling face, everyone gasped.
"Goodness, third brother, are these wild mushrooms really that valuable? A pound can sell for one yuan and fifty cents?"
The meat processing plant sells pork for only five or six yuan per pound.
So three or four pounds of wild mushrooms are equivalent to a pound of pork?
Don't forget that raising pork has costs, but wild mushrooms are plentiful on the mountain after the rain. You can pick them however you want, and nobody cares. Apart from labor, the cost is almost zero!
"Yes, city dwellers rarely get to eat such fresh mountain delicacies, and the county's supply and marketing cooperative doesn't sell wild mushrooms either. They're a rare commodity!"
After saying that, the master looked up at the sky, stood up and smiled at everyone, "Perfect timing, it's still early. I plan to continue into the mountains to pick mushrooms, and maybe catch a pheasant while I'm at it!"
"The mushrooms are growing well because it just rained these past few days, and I'm the only one selling them in the county, so I can get a good price. Once someone discovers the business opportunity, these things will probably be worthless."
These days, who wouldn't want to get involved in a business that can make money?
Wild mushrooms are everywhere in the city, and Lin Fan can sell them. When others see that he sells them at a good price, they will naturally imitate him.
With more sellers, prices will naturally be driven down, and the profits won't be as volatile. Therefore, Lin Fan wants to take advantage of the current favorable market conditions to reap the rewards.
"I'll go with you!"
Lin Desheng, the adoptive father, squatted down, tapped his pipe to extinguish the sparks, stood up, and said to Lin Fan.
Beside her, Lin Shuhan's eyes lit up, and she quickly patted her husband's waist: "Yes, yes, since this stuff is so valuable, let your brother-in-law and your dad go with you, try to collect more, and earn more money!"
One pound costs 1.5 yuan. If three people go into the mountains and don't collect much, they can collect 30 pounds a day, which is 45 yuan!
This earns much more than doing odd jobs outside, and it's also much easier.
What's more, the third brother just said that besides picking wild mushrooms, you can also catch pheasants. A pound of pheasants can sell for twelve yuan, and catching two or three can bring in another thirty or forty yuan.
It might be difficult to make a living from it long-term, but it's quite suitable for making some quick money in the short term.
"Yes, yes, third brother, let your dad and brother-in-law go with you. There's strength in numbers!"
Liu Chunlian chimed in with a comment from the side.
Lin Fan pondered for a moment, then nodded.
"Okay, let's go together!"
"Dad, brother-in-law, get ready, bring some thin thread, and a basket, we're off!"
