Chapter 25: Taking stock of the harvest, a net profit of two hundred thousand in one trip!
"Su Shen, are you saying that the group of wild boars went for the truffles?"
After Su Ran explained his previous discovery to netizens, they all felt incredulous.
"That's right," Su Ran nodded, "Whether it's wild boars or domestic pigs, truffles are their favorite."
The smell of truffles is a bit like the smell secreted by boars when they are in estrus, and sows like it very much.
Boars will also eat it. Among these three wild boars, one is a sow, which is easy to recognize because of its shorter tusks.
"Many times, where there are wild boars, there are no truffles because they have already been eaten by them!"
"But we were lucky this time. The wild boar led us to a truffle growing area that had not been damaged."
Su Ran sighed.
As one of the three major delicacies in the world, netizens are naturally aware of how valuable truffles are.
Although they were not the ones who discovered the truffles, they felt a great sense of achievement when they saw Su Ran was about to have a big harvest.
only……
Digging for truffles is not that easy.
Three wild boars were frantically digging the soil with their tusks under a big pine tree outside the cave entrance.
He made anxious grunting sounds from his mouth, and his restless look made people stay away from him, like a drug addict.
"They... How long have they not eaten? Are they so excited?"
"It seems that these wild boars are just like Dahei, the reincarnation of ghosts who died of starvation."
Netizens are very humorous. Dahei looked up at Su Ran blankly, unaware that he was being teased as a starving ghost by netizens.
"It's true that Dahei was hungry, but this group of wild boars weren't," Su Ran explained, shaking his head. "Truffles buried 30 centimeters underground will emit a smell similar to androstenol, which will induce the sexual impulse of wild boars."
As he was talking, the wild boar quickly dug out a plump truffle from under the tree roots.
Looking at the truffle, Su Ran smiled as expected.
On the other hand, some netizens were stunned: "Why is it white?"
“I’m afraid this is a fake truffle.”
"Brother, white truffles are more valuable than black truffles! The anchor is really rich now!"
That’s right, the value of white truffles is often several times higher than that of black truffles because they are rarer and more popular.
At this time, many rich men and women have placed orders in the live broadcast room.
"Host, can I order one kilogram? Money is not a problem."
"I want it too. I want as many as you can get. I have plenty of money!"
"Host, I'm a student, can you give me half a pound for free? You pay for the postage, and put two hundred in the courier."
"You can't do that even if you're a beast."
If Su Ran wants to dig expensive white truffles, he still has to deal with the wild boar first.
He walked out with Dahei, and Chen Sisi followed Su Ran cautiously.
After bypassing three wild boars, Su Ran came to the other end of the big tree.
At this time, one of the wild boars looked up at Su Ran, and the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Su Ran slowly raised his hands, his movements were cautious, trying to make himself look more harmless: "Give me some, okay?"
"Pfft, this is so funny, I didn't expect the host to be so straightforward."
"Haha, Brother Su is so cute."
"Give me some? Is that okay?"
"It would be strange if he could understand."
However, what netizens did not expect was that the wild boar actually poked its accomplices on both sides with its fangs. The three wild boars looked at each other with bursts of hot air coming out of their mouths.
Maybe it was because Su Ran had just thrown a wild boar out, and they were not stupid and knew that this guy was not easy to mess with.
As if he had acknowledged Su Ran's presence, he lowered his head and continued to enjoy the delicious truffle in front of him.
"This... is a promise?"
"It seems that this time, the three wild boar brothers were really shocked by Brother Su's courage."
What the netizens said was right. Since Brother Zhu gave face, Su Ran did not waste time and immediately called Dahei and Chen Sisi to start digging.
Truffles are very precious and their production is very low worldwide.
The annual production of black truffles is about 35 tons, and that of white truffles is even less, at only 3 tons.
Their fruiting bodies vary in size, with the large ones weighing up to half a pound and the small ones not even as big as a walnut.
What's more, the growth of this thing is very interesting. Generally, it is difficult for its size to change after it is formed. It may be as small as a broad bean or as big as a pineapple.
So digging for truffles depends on luck.
Sometimes they are bigger than a fist and very valuable.
Sometimes it is not even as big as an egg, so it is much cheaper. Moreover, if it is left here, it will not continue to grow, but will rot on its own after a certain period of time.
Su Ran was really lucky. The three truffles he dug out were much bigger than his fist.
"Truffles like this are of good quality and large in size, so they can be sold for more money." Su Ran looked at the white truffle with marble-like texture in his hand and happily put it into the backpack.
"Brother Su, is this thing really good?"
Su Ran didn't stop moving his hands as he said, "How should I put it? It's definitely good, and the effect of nourishing yin and tonifying yang is beyond doubt. But it also has a certain suspicion of hype."
"To put it bluntly, this stuff was used to feed pigs in the countryside before, because everyone knows that this stuff can easily make sows estrus, so in order to better breed, they would feed this to pigs."
"But it is true that due to its scarcity, it has gradually become popular. More people have discovered its nutritional value, and its price has also risen." It is said that Su Ran is so popular among netizens, because what he says is often the most down-to-earth and is something that many people have experienced.
One netizen commented: "Su Shen is right. My grandfather used to pick up a lot of this stuff to feed pigs, so I have never been interested in it since I was a child."
"Now that I'm studying abroad, I see foreigners love this stuff so much, I don't quite understand why. They can't bear to eat it directly, and every time they just put a little crumbs on steak or soup."
In fact, many things are hyped up by foreigners.
For example, diamonds and truffles.
But compared to diamonds, Su Ran thinks truffles still have their value, while diamonds are pure IQ tax.
After digging for more than an hour, there was almost no room left for more than twenty truffles.
In order to avoid crushing the hairy mushrooms, Su Ran deliberately placed the truffles at the bottom.
Because they are big enough, these truffles weigh almost two kilograms.
It can be sold for as low as 80,000 yuan, and if you find some wealthy buyers, you can even sell it for 150,000 yuan.
The remaining white truffles that had not been dug could be sold for at least 40,000 or 50,000 yuan, but Su Ran was not greedy and chose to leave them for the three wild boars.
After all, if it weren’t for Su Ran, it would be impossible to find the truffles here. Being too greedy will always backfire.
During this mountain patrol, Su Ran made a lot of money.
In the morning, I earned 70,000 yuan from gifts, sales of photos and the hairy mushrooms I dug.
At noon, there were about 100,000 white truffles, and the exact number would have to be calculated after they were sold.
In short, Su Ran felt that he would definitely get the two hundred thousand yuan this trip.
And it’s pure profit!
gross profit!
A gross profit of two hundred thousand, anyone would be envious!
As it was still early, Su Ran used his skills to catch two wild rabbits.
This kind of grass rabbit was classified as a "three-protected animal" in the forest a few years ago, just like wild boars.
In recent years, in order to adapt to the development of villagers near the forest and to continuously regulate the population of such animals, the state has also relaxed the protection of the three protected animals and even removed some animals that reproduced too much from this protection sequence.
Chen Sisi was hungry. Looking at the two bloody rabbits, she thought that braised rabbit meat must be delicious.
On the way down the mountain, Su Ran did not encounter any danger, but the signal on the mountain was sometimes good and sometimes bad, so Su Ran asked Chen Sisi to end the broadcast directly.
I finally got home and my grandfather had been waiting in the yard for a long time.
It was a cold day, and Su Ran was afraid that the old man would get cold: "Grandpa, please come in quickly, why are you staying outside?"
Inside the house, Aunt Wang saw Chen Sisi returning safe and sound, and the worry on her face instantly disappeared.
The old man glanced over Su Ran and Chen Sisi's shoulders and looked behind them. There was nothing there. Then he looked at Su Ran again and criticized him unhappily, "Do you know that the village chief said you almost died?"
Su Ran was stunned. He quickly realized that someone who knew him or the village chief himself must have seen the live broadcast. Out of concern, he told his grandfather about his encounter with the wild boar.
After realizing this, Su Ran felt relieved.
He put down the backpack with a smile: "Grandpa, look, I'm fine, and I'm not even afraid of wolves, so what are a few wild boars?"
"Besides, protecting the forest is dangerous. Are you going to stop doing it just because it's dangerous?"
"When you were a forest ranger in your youth, you encountered many wild boars, wolves, and the like, didn't you?"
The old man really couldn't refute this.
Voluntary forest protection is worthy of praise. Without these forest rangers sticking to the front line, green waters and green mountains are just empty talk.
The villagers living at the foot of the forest and mountains have been relying on the mountains for their livelihood all their lives, and the state also tacitly allows the villagers to use the resources in the forest to make a living as long as they do not cross the red line.
As he spoke, Su Ran poured out the hairy mushrooms and white truffles from the backpack.
The old man and Aunt Wang's eyes widened.
Living at the foot of the forest and mountains, no one would not know what this thing is.
Aunt Wang couldn't help but ask, "With so many... they must sell for tens of thousands, right?"
Su Ran held up two fingers: "Two hundred thousand is basically no problem."
Aunt Wang couldn't help but cover her mouth. It was not that she had never seen two hundred thousand before, but this was the first time she had seen someone earn two hundred thousand in one day.
My wife doesn’t make that much profit even in a day running a hotel.
Do you think patrolling the mountains is dangerous?
Of course it's dangerous.
But risks and opportunities coexist.
If Su Ran hadn't gone deep into the forest, how could he have made so much money at once.
But if you really want to talk about making money, it's not all about it, there is also the risk of losing everything.
That means if you encounter danger, you may lose both your life and your wealth at any time.
But Su Ran knew that he could reap great rewards every time he patrolled the mountains. In addition to luck, it was more due to his eyes and skills that far exceeded those of ordinary people.
This is also the reason why others cannot replicate his wealth.
Aren’t the netizens in the live broadcast room jealous?
Haven’t those who live near the forest ever envied Su Ran?
Of course!
I'm afraid they're all jealous and their teeth are itching.
But they can't do it like Su Ran!
I don't dare to take the risk.
Therefore, in the entire Beilinhai, Su Ran is the only one who can get rich legally by relying on the forest.
Others just struggle to get enough food and clothing.
"Grandpa, let's eat first. After dinner, I'll find a way to sell these mountain products. Let's go to town with Aunt Wang's family tonight to have a good meal."
