One Piece of Food

Chapter 18 The King of Fungi
On August 8, after a light rain in the morning, at noon there was a big sun like a tiger in autumn, and it was very hot.Several customers who ate mung bean noodles in Rao Mingyang's store turned on the fans to blow.

At this moment, an old woman wearing a straw hat, rustic clothes, and dirt on her shoes appeared at the door of Rao's famous shop.

I saw that she was holding a handful of bamboo rattan rings in her hand, and each rattan ring was covered with five or six gray mushrooms whose heads had not yet spread out.

The aunt held a rattan ring, shook it twice at the door, and shouted: "Three handfuls of mushrooms, three handfuls of mushrooms, three handfuls of fresh mushrooms, anyone want?"

"Three handfuls of mushrooms?"

Several diners who were eating mung bean powder heard this word, their eyes lit up immediately, they raised their heads, and took a closer look at the hand of the aunt, and it turned out to be the king of mushrooms-three mushrooms.

Several people didn't eat the mung bean noodles, put down their bowls and chopsticks immediately, and all rushed forward to ask the price.

Sanba mushroom, the scientific name of which is called Jicong mushroom, also has names such as umbrella mushroom, Sanba mushroom, Sanba mushroom, chicken shredded mushroom, etc. Rao is famous in his hometown of Mae Tan, where they are all called Sanba mushroom.

This kind of wild mushroom has thick and plump meat, fine silky white texture, delicious and mellow taste, and contains a variety of amino acids, proteins, vitamins, riboflavin and other substances needed by the human body.It can prevent intestinal cancer, lower blood pressure, increase appetite, invigorate spleen and replenish qi, and increase human resistance. It is a rare and precious wild edible fungus.

Whether fried, deep-fried, fried, braised, or baked, the three mushrooms are all delicious, crisp, and smooth.If it is used to boil three handfuls of mushroom and chicken soup, it will be even more delicious and refreshing, so it is regarded as a rare treasure in the mountains and the king of mushrooms.

However, the growing environment of sanba mushrooms is extremely harsh. Currently, only a small number of mountainous areas in southwest and southeast China are produced from July to September every year.Moreover, it must be a place where there are ant nests in cornfields or grass. Only after the rain has passed and the sky clears will it be possible to grow three handfuls of mushrooms.

Moreover, the existence time of the three mushrooms is also very short.

After the mushroom heads come out of the ground, they will scatter in a few hours, and they will be overripe and ruined in less than a day.If you don't have great luck, you won't be able to meet three mushrooms.

Although there are many people who have met, they have matured too much, and the three mushrooms are broken and can't be eaten!
The magic of this kind of wild fungus is that as long as you encounter a cluster, there are usually twenty or thirty flowers.Then, if you search carefully, you may find two other clusters within tens of meters nearby, and the total number of the three clusters is generally between 50 and 100.

This is also the origin of the name Sanba mushroom, which means that as long as this kind of mushroom appears, there are basically three mushrooms.

The delicacy and rarity of the three mushrooms are destined to be expensive.Almost all of Mae Tan's three handfuls of mushrooms in the past two years are priced at 20 yuan a flower, or [-] to [-] yuan a catty.

Farmers who work on the mountain in late summer and early autumn, if they are lucky, they only need to pick up three handfuls of mushrooms at a time, and they can earn hundreds of thousands of dollars, which is no different from picking up money on the ground.

If luck is against the sky, if you pick up more times, and the quantity is large, it is possible to earn tens of thousands of dollars by picking up three handfuls of mushrooms in two or three months.

However, there are very few people who can pick up three handfuls of mushrooms.Most people never even saw or bought three handfuls of mushrooms, let alone picked them up.

Naturally, scientists will not turn a blind eye to such a delicious and expensive mountain delicacy, and have tried to cultivate it artificially.

However, the conditions required for the growth of Sanba mushrooms are too harsh. At present, agricultural scientists have not yet developed the technology for artificial cultivation of Sanba mushrooms.

Therefore, the three mushrooms on the market are all [-]% natural wild mushrooms.

The rural lady at the door of Rao Mingyang's store was working in her own field, but unexpectedly picked up three handfuls of mushrooms, wrapped them in bamboo strips and brought them to the street for sale, without even having time to change her shoes.

Every time the three handfuls of mushrooms appear, the public will rush to buy them.

However, the three handfuls of mushrooms picked up by this aunt are so good in appearance, they are in the shape of budding mushrooms that are waiting to be opened.This is the best quality and most expensive product among the three mushrooms.

Therefore, the price she called was extremely high, 200 yuan for a bunch, and there were only five or six flowers in a bunch, and there was no bargaining at all.

Walking all the way from the countryside to the city, there are many people who ask, but few people buy.After more than an hour, she has only sold three strings, and there are still ten strings that have not been sold.

However, she is not worried about not being able to sell, as long as she walks more.

When she walked to the door of Rao Mingyang's store, she just paused and asked questions habitually. She didn't know who were eating mung bean noodles in Rao Mingyang's store.

Since these diners can eat a bowl of mung bean powder for 100 yuan, they are naturally not afraid of three handfuls of mushrooms that cost several hundred yuan a catty.As long as the price is not too outrageous, they are not afraid of expensive.

So, as soon as they heard the name of the three mushrooms, and saw that she was indeed holding the three mushrooms, several people immediately rushed up and asked.

When everyone got closer, seeing the appearance of the three mushrooms in the aunt's hand, everyone was even more envious.

However, when everyone heard the price of 200 yuan a string from the aunt, they hesitated a little.

There are only five or six mushrooms in a string on the rattan ring of the aunt, and each mushroom costs about 40 yuan!This price was almost double the price of the three handfuls of mushrooms they usually heard, which was too expensive.

It's not that I can't afford it, but I feel that the price is too much, so I have to bargain down the price.

Just when a few people were bargaining around the auntie, trying to get her to lower the price, and they would all share it with her, a system voice sounded in Rao Mingyang's mind.

"Host, hurry up and buy it! If you use three handfuls of mushrooms to cook soup with Changting River frog, and add broth essence powder to enhance the flavor, your crispy meat and mung bean noodles will be several times more delicious than it is now. Use this to participate in the selection , there is absolutely no problem in winning the selection of famous snacks, and it is very likely to win the first prize!"

Originally, Rao Mingyang was standing outside to watch the fun, but when he heard what the system said, he immediately thought: "Damn it, there is only one first prize, so you have to buy it!"

Then, Rao Mingyang immediately squeezed into the crowd, and said to the aunt who sold three bunches of mushrooms: "Ma'am, how many bunches of three bunches of mushrooms do you have? Give them all to me, I'll buy them all!"

Rao's famous words immediately attracted criticism from diners: "Hey, Boss Rao, aren't you being kind?"

"Rao Mingyang, how can you tear down our station?"

"I can't give you all of them!"

"Whoever sees it has a share, and everyone must share a little!"

The aunt who sold three handfuls of mushrooms was overjoyed, and ignored the bargaining diners, but said to Rao Mingyang: "I have 10 bunches, give me 2000 yuan, and they will all be yours."

"it is good!"

Rao Mingyang did not hesitate, and immediately counted 2000 and handed it to the aunt, and took 10 skewers and three handfuls of mushrooms into his hands.

Fortunately, his daily turnover is very high, and he has thousands of dollars on him at any time.If it was before, he still wouldn't be able to spend 2000 yuan to buy it!
