Chapter 544 - 544 542 Picking Wild Mushrooms

544: Chapter 542: Picking Wild Mushrooms 544: Chapter 542: Picking Wild Mushrooms When Wang De in the kitchen saw Chen Yang arrive, he immediately came over with a smile and asked if there was anything Chen Yang needed.

Chen Yang looked at Wang De and asked, “I heard from Manager Li that there’s also a dish with wild mushrooms today, is that right?”

Wang De thought for a moment, then nodded decisively, “Yes, there is a dish with wild mushrooms today, it’s also the main course.

Is there a problem, Brother Chen Yang?”

“No problem, just that Manager Li was worried that the frozen wild mushrooms might not be fresh enough, so he sent me to check.

If the taste has changed, we’ll have to throw them out and restock.”

“Oh, I see.

Then come with me, all the wild mushrooms are in the freezer.”

Wang De understood immediately and promptly took Chen Yang to the kitchen’s freezer, where he took out the frozen wild mushrooms and defrosted them for a taste test.

For Wang De, these wild mushrooms had only been frozen for a day or two, and the flavor shouldn’t have changed much.

But after tasting them, Chen Yang immediately shook his head.

“No good, the taste of wild mushrooms is all about the freshness, and these have definitely lost their flavor.

Let’s throw them all out, I’ll go and get a fresh batch,” said Chen Yang with a frown.

“Ah?” Wang De was taken aback, “Throw out all these wild mushrooms?

Wouldn’t that be a huge loss?”

“A small loss doesn’t matter.

If we served these at Manager Li’s father’s birthday banquet, that would be the real loss.”

Wang De had no reply, left speechless by Chen Yang’s comment.

Still, he nodded, “Mm, you’re right, Brother Chen Yang.

I’ll do as you say.”

Having said that, Wang De immediately took out all the frozen wild mushrooms from the freezer and threw them away.

After seeing that Wang De had thrown them all away, Chen Yang said, “Let’s cook the wild mushroom dish last.

I’m going to get the stock now.”

“Okay, fine.”

Wang De nodded, and then Chen Yang left the kitchen, planning to head back to Liuhé Village.

Walking into the hotel lobby, Chen Yang also greeted Wu Kexin, telling her he was stepping out for a bit.

Wu Kexin knew that if Chen Yang was going out, he must be busy with something, so she didn’t ask any further, simply nodding her head and reminding him to be careful.

“Understood.”

Chen Yang left Lin Tianxia, driving his van toward Liuhé Village.

On the way back, Chen Yang also received a message from the design manager he met the day before.

The redesign plans for the Fish House were ready.

Upon receiving the message, Chen Yang even stopped for a moment to look carefully at the plans.

When he was on-site the day before, the design manager had shown him a simple sketch, so Chen Yang already had a rough idea of what the renovation would look like.

Therefore, when he looked at the refined plans, his heart didn’t waver much.

He was only more certain about going ahead with the changes.

“Mm, let’s go ahead with the renovation.

I’m going to talk to the neighbors next door right now.

As long as there’s no issue with the land, we should start construction as soon as possible.”

Once he was sure there were no issues, Chen Yang replied with such a message.

“Okay, I’ll wait for your good news.”

The design manager replied immediately, and afterward, Chen Yang left the chat page and made a quick call to Yang Caiyun, telling her that the design plans looked good.

He also asked her to negotiate with the neighbors that day about acquiring the adjacent land for expansion.

Of course, the happiest about the expansion of the Fish House was her.

So, upon hearing the news, she agreed immediately.

“Okay, okay, I’ll go talk to them right now!”

“Yeah, thanks, sis.

I’ve got more on my plate, so I’ll hang up now.

If you have any problems, call me anytime.”

“Sure, go ahead with your work.”

After their conversation, the two hung up, and Chen Yang started the engine once more, driving toward Liuhé Village.

Chen Yang set off when it was just past seven o’clock, and by the time he returned to Liuhe Village, it was just after eight o’clock, with Auntie Wang and her group in the middle of picking wild mushrooms in the greenhouse.

After parking the van, Chen Yang went directly to the greenhouse and asked Auntie Wang and others to work hard today to pick all the ripe wild mushrooms in the entire greenhouse.

Auntie Wang was somewhat surprised, “Yang Zi, why do we need so many wild mushrooms today?”

Chen Yang smiled slightly, “I’ve come across a big deal today, so I’m buying more.”

“Oh, I see.”

Auntie Wang nodded her head and then without asking more, she did as Chen Yang had said.

They picked every mature wild mushroom for him.

Seeing the three aunties busy, Chen Yang definitely couldn’t just stand by and watch, so he also took the initiative to help them pick.

In the process of picking, they naturally couldn’t avoid being gossiped about by the aunties.

They asked some rather private questions.

If he had a girlfriend yet, which among the many girls he had his eye on, and the like.

It would have been better if they had asked these questions in jest; Chen Yang could then have played along and avoided the questions.

But today they asked very seriously, which left Chen Yang not knowing how to reply.

“I’m still young; earning money is most important.

I have no time to think about those things,” Chen Yang waved his hand and evaded.

Upon hearing this, the three aunties laughed heartily.

“Come off it, Yang Zi, do you think your aunties don’t know you?

I reckon you have your sights set on a few girls, trying to scoop them all up, aren’t you?” Auntie Wang suddenly laughed heartily.

As soon as Auntie Wang said this, Auntie Zhang also laughed and chimed in, “That’s what I think too.

All three girls are nice.

Getting all of them shows our Yang Zi is blessed.”

When the two aunties said this, their expression was not the least bit abnormal, but instead filled with excitement.

This made Chen Yang quite embarrassed.

“There’s no such thing.

I just want to earn more money right now, lead everyone to prosper together, and don’t have the mind to think about anything else.”

Chen Yang still replied the same.

Seeing this, Auntie Wang and Auntie Zhang covered their mouths to laugh, then stopped the topic, only saying in passing that he should earn money but also not to delay in important matters like marriage.

Chen Yang could tell that they indeed meant well for him.

So, he nodded and smiled in reply to Auntie Wang, “Don’t worry about that, Auntie Wang.

I, Chen Yang, have some charm to me, I definitely won’t end up a bachelor.”

“There you go.

Our Liuhe Village doesn’t have many young men left; we’re counting on you guys to carry on the family line,” Auntie Wang said with a chuckle.

Chen Yang didn’t keep up the conversation, instead bowing his head and continuing to pick wild mushrooms.

Now Chen Yang had three greenhouses, and the number of ripe wild mushrooms harvested daily was still very substantial.

So he easily picked more than a hundred pounds of fresh wild mushrooms.

“Yang Zi, should these hundred-plus pounds be enough?

If we pick any more, they’re all going to be young shoots,” Auntie Wang asked Chen Yang if they should keep picking after weighing them.

Chen Yang thought carefully, for two to three hundred tables, these hundred-plus pounds of wild mushrooms should be enough.

Half a pound per table of wild mushrooms was plenty.

With this thought, he nodded his head, “Mhm, that’s enough, no need to pick more.”

Hearing this, Auntie Wang and Auntie Zhang didn’t say anything and just silently moved all the snake bags full of wild mushrooms onto Chen Yang’s van.

They helped load up the van every morning, so their actions were very practiced.
