Reborn in 1981, starting by smashing my iron rice bowl.

"Ouch!" Liu Weidong cried out in pain, rubbing his lower back and complaining, "Senior sister, what did I do to you? Why are you pinching me again?"

"How dare you ask!" Wei Wanqing glared fiercely at Liu Weidong, taking a step closer to him and saying, "If you have such a good way to make money, why didn't you tell me?"

As Wei Wanqing drew closer, Liu Weidong was so frightened that he took two steps back. Then he realized that his back was against the wall on the side of the street, and he had no way to retreat.

But the strong woman continued to press closer, her ample bosom almost touching Liu Weidong's body. Fortunately, this street was relatively inexpensive and there were no pedestrians around; otherwise, the two of them in this state would definitely have attracted a lot of attention.

"Hey, senior sister, be mindful of your behavior!" Liu Weidong reminded Wei Wanqing while glancing down at her ample chest, somewhat anticipating what might happen next.

"What are you looking at? I'll gouge your eyes out!" the strong woman warned Liu Weidong loudly, her domineering aura captivating.

Liu Weidong said helplessly, "Senior sister, you're so close, I can't refuse to watch even if I want to. Besides, I'm only watching because it's interesting. If there's nothing to see, I wouldn't even want to watch it!"

These words made Wei Wanqing a little smug, and she lowered her voice to ask, "Is it pretty?"

Liu Weidong nodded vigorously: "It looks great! If anyone dares to say it doesn't, I'll fight them!"

"Hmph, that's more like it!" The powerful woman puffed out her chest defiantly, giving Liu Weidong a flirtatious glance and saying, "You have good taste!"

However, Wei Wanqing quickly realized that Liu Weidong had led her astray, and she glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense, tell me, why didn't you tell me if you had a way to make money?"

After trying to evade the question for a while, Liu Weidong could only say helplessly, "Senior sister, you are a powerful businesswoman, and I have high expectations for you. This kind of speculative hype will only make you lose face, which is why I didn't tell you."

Although these words were indeed pleasant to hear, they were not enough to fool Wei Wanqing, who was focused on making money. The strong woman immediately sneered, "Losing face? Then why did you buy so many clivia plants? Aren't you afraid of losing face?"

Liu Weidong said seriously, "You're a strong woman, and I'm just a farmer. Isn't it normal for me to do some speculation and make some pocket money? There's nothing shameful about it!"

Seeing that the businesswoman still looked unconvinced, Liu Weidong could only continue, "Besides, when I bought the clivia, I didn't know it would rise this much. I thought it would at most double in value by the end of the year. Furthermore, if I had really told you back then that buying clivia could make money, would you have believed me?"

Wei Wanqing considered for a moment and said, "If you tell me that I can definitely make money, I might believe you halfway."

"That settles it!" Liu Weidong clapped his hands and said, "Back then, I wasn't sure if this would make money, and I didn't dare drag you into it."

The strong woman thought for a moment before nodding slightly and saying, "What you said makes some sense. I'll let you off this time!"

Liu Weidong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Senior sister, your talent lies in doing business. As long as you find the right direction and persevere, you will definitely achieve great things. But never think about taking shortcuts, as that will only lower the level you can reach in the future."

Liu Weidong's previous words were somewhat meant to deceive Wei Wanqing, but his last words were entirely from the heart.

After all, in her previous life, Wei Wanqing started her business in the clothing industry and became a well-known businesswoman in the province. Liu Weidong didn't want her to focus her energy on other things because of his influence, as that could very well change her fate.

Wei Wanqing could tell that Liu Weidong meant what he said. She gave him a deep look and nodded gently, saying, "I understand. The garment factory will be officially opening soon. You'll have to give me lots of advice then!"

Seeing that the strong woman had taken his words to heart, Liu Weidong was also very happy. He smiled and nodded, saying, "Of course! If you encounter any problems, just come to me. I will never refuse to help if I can!"

"Hmph, at least you still have some conscience!" Wei Wanqing glanced at Liu Weidong arrogantly, then suddenly leaned closer to him and whispered, "Since you like watching so much, I'll let you watch as much as you want when you have the chance!"

The strong woman suddenly started joking again, which left Liu Weidong quite helpless. He couldn't help but smile wryly and say, "We're talking about serious matters, Senior Sister, please stop joking."

Wei Wanqing also became serious and said, "Okay, let's get down to business. You're good at advising me not to do speculative things, but you yourself do all those things. Haven't you ever thought about starting a real business? If you don't have enough money, I can lend it to you."

Feeling the concern shown to him by the strong woman, Liu Weidong smiled slightly and said, "Senior sister, don't worry, I also have businesses to run!"

The "real industry" Liu Weidong was referring to was, of course, the grove where matsutake mushrooms were being grown. If done well, the profits from this business would definitely be no less than those from the clothing factory owned by the successful businesswoman.

Fortunately, since Liu Weidong inoculated the mycelium into the forest, the weather has been very suitable for several days in a row, so the mycelium grows very quickly.

That day, Liu Weidong went to the woods to check on the situation and was pleasantly surprised to find that a lot of mycelium had grown, crisscrossing in the soil, just like a complex map.

This scene delighted Liu Weidong, who murmured to himself with satisfaction, "Great! Excellent! At this rate, it won't be long before the forest is full of matsutake mushrooms!"

Liu Weidong's guess was correct. A few days later, it rained, and when he went to check the woods early the next morning, he found that many pine trees had sprouted tiny white dots.

Experienced people can tell at a glance that these are matsutake mushrooms that have just sprouted from the soil. Given time, these little white dots will continue to break through the soil and grow into delicious matsutake mushrooms.

Seeing the tiny white dots on the surface of the soil, Liu Weidong finally breathed a sigh of relief. The scene before him unequivocally demonstrated that the matsutake mushroom cultivation plan had been a success.

In the future, as long as the rhythm of matsutake harvesting is well arranged and enough matsutake are left to grow to a size suitable for reproduction, this forest will produce matsutake continuously.

At the price agreed upon with Pierre, the annual output of this forest is enough to make Liu Weidong a fortune!

Just as Liu Weidong was feeling pleased, a villager who was looking for matsutake mushrooms came down from the mountain. Seeing him in the woods, he decided to come over for a chat. He had just reached the edge of the woods when he spotted the matsutake mushrooms that had just sprouted on the forest floor.

The villager's voice trembled with nervousness as he asked Liu Weidong, "Weidong... these, these are all matsutake mushrooms?!"
