This piece of land was long and narrow. One side was south of Qingshan Village, while the other side was at the foot of the mountain, and, straight ahead, there was another mountainous area.

After the machinery had cut down the straw, Xu Ling walked toward the foot of the mountain.

While she was walking, she was mumbling something under her breath.

Yang Guang saw this and said, “Xu Ling, what are you doing?”

“I’ve calculated the distance. Each greenhouse should have at least ten meters of space in front of it,” Xu Ling said.

Yang Guang did not speak again as he followed her forward.

The two of them just walked farther and farther toward the foot of the mountain.

In front of them were dense bushes and further ahead were dense trees, from the foot of the mountain all the way to the top.

“We need to get some protective measures here, so that the wild animals on the mountain don’t come down to the greenhouses and raid the vegetables.” Xu Ling pointed to the foot of the mountain and said.

“This is indeed necessary. If possible, let’s build a wall and make it high,” Yang Guang nodded and said.

“A wall takes time and costs money, so why not use barbed wire?” Xu Ling asked.

Yang Guang thought about it, nodded his head, and said, “That’s a good idea.”

While the two were discussing the field, they suddenly twitched their noses at the same time, looked at each other, and asked, “What’s that smell?”

“It seems to be coming from the woods!”

Yang Guang headed for the trees.

He and Xu Ling both smelled a strong aroma that didn’t smell like meat or flowers. It smelled very nice, but they had never smelled it before.

Xu Ling was curious and wanted to find out what was inside the forest.

The two of them walked through the bushes and in front of them was a thick jungle-like area.

Even though this place was very close to Qingshan Village, very few people ever came here, mainly because the forest was so dense that it was difficult to walk inside it.

Therefore, people who harvested mountain products were unwilling to come, and Yang Guang had rarely come.

Now, Yang Guang saw the canopy of trees clustered together overhead, blocking most of the sunlight. The forest was a bit dark, so he extended his hand as he said, “Xu Ling, may I hold your hand?”

Xu Ling was taken by surprise and was hesitant when her hand had already been grabbed by Yang Guang.

When she felt the warmth of his hand, Xu Ling’s heart began racing.

The ambiance was too romantic in the darkness with the mysterious fragrance.

However, it was too late to regret anything. She had no choice but to pretend she didn’t care and followed Yang Guang deeper into the forest without saying anything.

There were only the sound of rustling footsteps around. Xu Ling couldn’t help but gulp.

Yang Guang was a bit on edge as well, but mostly because he was holding a girl’s hand for the first time, and that cool, soft feeling was really wonderful.

The two young people just held hands without saying a word and walked forward.

In fact, they didn’t go very far when they saw a grayish-white thing in the weeds a short distance away.

The uncanny aroma emanated from here.

Xu Ling forgot to be nervous and looked at the thing as she asked, “What is this?”

Yang Guang did not want to let go of her hand, but was forced to. He squatted down and looked at it, then reached out and touched it before raising his head and saying to her, “If I’m not mistaken, this is Ganoderma!”

Xu Ling’s eyes widened, and she froze for a moment.

“Ganoderma has health benefits such as nourishing the liver and protecting the kidneys. It’s wonderful!”

As he had read in the record in the Method of Divine Farmer, an idea flashed in Yang Guang’s mind.

However, in comparison to ordinary Ganoderma, this one in front of him was a little unique, because the kind recorded in the Method of Divine Farmer was odorless.

But this one was able to emit a distinctive aroma and was obviously quite special.

When he saw that Xu Ling was still stupefied, Yang Guang said with a smile, “Xu Ling, we’re going to be in for a fortune again.”

“I can’t believe that there are so many good things around Qingshan Village.”

Xu Ling was still in amazement when she saw Yang Guang taking off his shirt and was immediately startled and said, “You, what are you doing?”

“I don’t want anyone to know that we found this thing, so I’m going to wrap it up,” Yang Guang said with an innocent expression on his face.

Only then did Xu Ling understand but couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him and say, “You scared me!”

Yang Guang said with a smile, “What did you think I was going to do?”

“I didn’t assume anything.”

Xu Ling blushed and didn’t have the guts to make eye contact with him, so she turned her head in the direction they’d come from and said, “Many people are watching the construction at the entrance of the village, so there’s no point in wrapping it up. For sure everyone will ask.”

“If they ask, they can ask. Who can do anything to me if I don’t tell them?”

Yang Guang smiled. “Anyway, I definitely want to take home the treasure I found. I don’t feel comfortable leaving it in the mountain for any longer.”

“Okay then.”

Xu Ling had no choice but to nod and then asked, “Does this really have an amazing effect?”

“Of course, don’t doubt it. You’ll find out when we get back.”

Yang Guang laughed and picked up the Ganoderma, which was wrapped in his clothes, leaving him bare-chested.

The two then left and returned to the field in the same direction they had come from.

The straw-eradication work was still continuing, and the spectators were still watching. Some had felt bored and gradually had dispersed. There were only a few people left.

“You can go back by yourself. I won’t go with you. After shoveling the straw, I have to level the land,” Xu Ling said.

When he saw the beads of sweat on her nose, Yang Guang nodded and said, “Okay, Xu Ling, don’t overwork yourself. I’ll bring you back some water later.”

“Okay.”

Xu Ling nodded her head with a cheerful smile.

Yang Guang carried the Ganoderma home, and, on the way, he saw a few villagers who were curious and asked a few questions, but they were all brushed off by him and he didn’t tell anyone what he had found.

He came home quickly, and, when he entered the door, he shouted, “Xiaolian, come out!”

“What’s the matter?”

Wu Xiaolian came out with Yaya in her arms with a nervous look on her face.

“Nothing. I want to show you something good!”

Yang Guang smiled as he lifted the clothes covering the Ganoderma and gave her a look.

Wu Xiaolian was a bit baffled and widened her eyes in shock as she said, “What is this?”

“Ganoderma!” Yang Guang said as he placed the Ganoderma into a water tank.

This thing was weird because, despite its weight of several dozen pounds, it didn’t sink when placed in the water but floated directly on the surface.

When she saw this, Wu Xiaolian was astonished and said, “My goodness, where did you get this?”

“Just in the mountains to the south.”

Yang Guang smiled at her and said, “Xiaolian, from now on, just soak this in the water tank and wait until it becomes more beautiful.”

“…”

Wu Xiaolian was a bit baffled and was just about to ask what he meant by that, but Yang Guang had already gone inside.

Not long after, he retrieved a kettle from the kitchen and filled the water tank with water.

“I’m going to take some water to Xu Ling. I’ll talk to you again after I return.”

After filling up the water, Yang Guang left home in a hurry.

After Yang Guang returned to the construction site, Xu Ling took a sip from the water bottle, then showed a quizzical expression and said, “How come this water tastes different?”

Yang Guang said with a smile, “Just tell me if it tastes nice or not!”
