Chapter 980: Poisonous Mushroom Incident (Only one chapter)

Only one chapter today. My daughter is still having diarrhea, fortunately she didn't vomit in the afternoon. The hospital checked, and luckily it wasn't viral, just catching a cold plus eating something unclean. Tomorrow should be able to resume updates, hopefully.

…………

Li Long drove the jeep to the backyard of the acquisition station this time, parked the jeep on the side, and after leaving space for the car hired by Jia Tianlong, he began to move the fritillaria out of the warehouse.

The classification of fritillaria was all marked. Li Long first moved out three bags, nearly two hundred kilograms of special grade goods. He opened the bag and grabbed a handful of fritillaria to look at. Each one was full of seeds and very large. These fritillaria were the ones that Gu Bo Yuan said would be no problem to rate as special grade.

Like last year, a few people who sold fritillaria specifically sold boutique ones, all picked and screened. Li Long dared to open a price of one hundred yuan per kilogram for these fritillaria directly.

Even so, Li Long knew Jia Tianlong still had profit to make, after all, this fritillaria was really too beautiful.

Next were more than thirty bags of boutique grade one fritillaria. These fritillaria were about the same size, some were very clean when collected, and some were the result of Tie Lanhua's later cleaning and screening.

Now Tie Lanhua was still screening, and she wanted to help Li Long lift the bags out. Li Long hurriedly stopped her. Just kidding, letting a pregnant woman help him do work, Li Long couldn't do it—cleaning was one thing, but lifting bags now was heavy work, and it would cause trouble if she got tired.

Don't look at the many bags, Li Long lifted one in each hand, quickly lifted the bags out and piled them together, then took out a large iron sieve and a scale, waiting for Jia Tianlong to come.

There were still many bags in the warehouse, and some drying fritillaria outside. Li Long didn't let Tie Lanhua help, so she washed the fritillaria in the basin, scooped them out, and dried them on the sieve by the wall.

To prevent the iron sieve from staining the color of the fritillaria, Li Long specifically bought a batch of gauze to cover it. The fritillaria was dried on the gauze, which didn't affect the color.

When the car sounded, Tie Lanhua had already scooped out the fritillaria in the basin, dried them on the iron sieve, poured out the dirty water in the basin, stood the basin by the wall, and said to Li Long: "Boss Li, I have to go back to cook now..."

"Good, good, good, you go ahead," Li Long said. "It's fine, you do whatever you need to do, don't worry about me."

It was almost one o'clock. This was indeed the time to cook. According to Gu Bo Yuan, Tie Lanhua was a down-to-earth person, and her daily workload was enough, so the dried fritillaria exceeded Gu Bo Yuan's expectations, so Li Long definitely wouldn't interfere with her plan.

Feeling Li Long's attitude toward her, Tie Lanhua smiled, then supported her belly and walked toward the front.

When Jia Tianlong drove the car into the backyard, he happened to run into Tie Lanhua. He was stunned for a moment, and when he got out of the car, he looked at Tie Lanhua's back, then came over and asked Li Long:

"Brother Brother Lao Li, who is this..."

"The wife of a worker in my shop. Nothing to do, and the fritillaria I collected here isn't clean, so I just let her help wash it."

"Pregnant?"

"Hmm, married early last winter," Li Long said. "Pregnant this year."

"Brother Brother Lao Li, I think you are a person with great luck!" Jia Tianlong suddenly said with reverence. "Look, you just picked up a person, and they got married here, and they got pregnant the next year. How smooth is this..."

Li Long was stunned for a moment, and asked back: "Isn't this very normal?"

"Brother Brother Lao Li, do you feel guilty saying this? Is it normal?" Jia Tianlong pointed to his chest and said: "Is this normal?"

Li Long took two steps back. Jia Tianlong was too excited, causing saliva to fly everywhere. He didn't want to be infected by droplets, and then said uncertainly: "This... isn't it normal?"

He felt it was quite normal. It seemed that the people around him were basically married and had children, just like Tao Daqiang, and this Sun Jia Qiang.

"Because they follow you, so you feel normal," Jia Tianlong pointed to Li Long's courtyard and said, "You say it yourself, that piece of jade, is it normal? It's too miraculous..."

Li Long thought to himself that it was also because he was good to the villagers of Qingshuihe that they sent it over.

Don't talk about great luck, that was because he could bring benefits to others, he could lead them to live a good life, and they would naturally feed back to him.

But this couldn't be said. He felt that Jia Tianlong was already obsessed with that jade stone.

If it wasn't said that the jade stone was sent by Meng Hai and the others, Li Long thought to himself that he would just sell it to Jia Tianlong, anyway, he wasn't short of money.

But it was sent by others, so it couldn't be sold casually.

"Come, come, come, look at the fritillaria first." Li Long changed the subject, fearing that Jia would become a god-stick if he continued.

"Hmm, let me see."

"Let you open your eyes." Li Long opened the three bags of special grade goods for Jia Tianlong to see, "See? Such fritillaria, generally can't be seen at all, right?"

"Hey! This isn't fake, right?" Jia Tianlong was also very surprised when he saw it. "Such a large size, such good quality?"

"Specifically picked out, take a look, is this one hundred yuan per kilogram worth it?" Li Long asked proudly.

"Worth it, definitely worth it!" Jia Tianlong reached out and inserted it to the bottom, took out a handful of fritillaria from below, saw that the quality was the same, and hurriedly said.

"No need to be so troublesome, come, pour it into the sieve to see." Li Long lifted a bag of fritillaria and poured it into the sieve. Although Jia Tianlong said it was worth it, he still looked at it carefully.

They were all fritillaria about the size of a little finger egg, each looking very beautiful.

Li Long dropped the bag, used his hand to rake it to show Jia Tianlong: "How is it?"

"This!" Jia Tianlong gave a thumbs up, "How much in total? Just these three bags?"

"What? Still think it's not enough? Be content! It's already not bad to be able to pick out these three bags." Li Long didn't expect Jia Tianlong to be really discontented, actually wanting more.

"Enough, enough, enough!" Jia Tianlong looked at these boutique fritillaria, laughing from ear to ear, "Isn't there still general goods."

Li Long didn't pick up his words, poured the other two bags of fritillaria onto the iron sieve, and let Jia Tianlong look for himself.

"Excluding the weight of the iron sieve of five kilograms, the special grade boutique fritillaria weighs two hundred and forty-one kilograms in total, one hundred per kilogram, which is twenty-four thousand one hundred yuan." Jia Tianlong was very satisfied, directing people to repack.

"Next, look at the others." Li Long also found a notebook to record the numbers, let Jia Tianlong sign, and then continued.

"Boutique grade one fritillaria two thousand two hundred and seventeen kilograms, ninety yuan per kilogram, totaling one hundred and ninety-nine thousand five hundred and thirty yuan." Jia Tianlong pressed the calculator and reported the number to Li Long.

Li Long's mental arithmetic was also finished, correct.

Jia Tianlong directed the people he brought to load the goods, and he and Li Long took the large leather suitcase to the reception room to hand over the money.

More than two hundred thousand yuan was not a small number, all were big unity, quite laborious to count.

Fortunately, counterfeit money was not easy to make at this time, and the ten-yuan big unity was relatively easy to recognize. Li Long looked very precise, and after counting, he even wanted the leather suitcase.

Jia Tianlong brought twenty-five thousand in payment, and the rest could also be loaded in the black leather bag.

Li Long pulled the zipper of the suitcase and said with a smile: "The main things collected recently are fritillaria and wild mushrooms. Once you take the fritillaria away, the remaining wild mushrooms will wait for Boss Huang Lei."

Last time Jia Tianlong and Huang Lei were together, Li Long believed they must have communicated.

"Boss Huang is afraid he can't come," Jia Tianlong said when he heard this. "Don't you know?"

Li Long asked: "What's wrong? I don't know!"

"I called him when I came over a while ago, wanting to come with him, to have a care. He said he couldn't come. The mushroom dry he sold, someone ate it and had problems, saying it was poisonous mushrooms, and it is under investigation."

Seeing Li Long's face change, he immediately said: "Brother Brother Lao Li, I believe you definitely wouldn't sell poisonous mushrooms. The goods he collected there definitely aren't just from your family, so it shouldn't be investigated to you."

Li Long nodded slowly when he heard this.

When collecting mushrooms here, Li Long specifically told Gu Bo Yuan and Sun Jia Qiang to only collect morels, black tiger palm mushrooms, and straw mushrooms. Morels couldn't be faked, and black tiger palm mushrooms were the same.

Only straw mushrooms, the whole ones were easy to distinguish, if sliced, it wasn't easy to tell.

Fortunately, Gu Bo Yuan and Sun Jia Qiang could tell after watching for a long time. This thing couldn't be faked casually. After all, it was a one or two yuan thing, not worth it. ===== CHAPTER 981 =====
