Since the first batch of mushrooms matured, Li Shaoan would ride a tricycle to the town outside to sell every day, and usually he could sell two or three hundred kilograms a day. If he happened to be in the market in the town and people from all over the country gathered together, it would be very lively and could sell more than five hundred kilograms a day.

As for the sales of mushrooms, there is no need to worry about the current relationship between Li Shaoan's scale and market demand.

There are almost 15,000 permanent residents in Yangqiao Town, not including migrant population. It is an important town in the county. There are only a few mushrooms sold in the farmers' market. The mushrooms grown by Li Shaoan are good, with fresh tastes and good tastes. Over time, the reputation has come out. In addition to repeat customers, there are also diners who come to buy mushrooms.

Li Shaoan's first batch of mushrooms totaled 3,800 kilograms, nearly 4,000 kilograms. It took almost half a month to sell them all, and soon the second batch of mushrooms grew out.

Due to the decrease in fertility of the mushroom buns, the yield of the second batch of mushrooms is less than that of the first batch. Generally speaking, after the first batch of mushrooms three times, it is no longer suitable for continued cultivation. The mushroom yield will be greatly reduced and a new mushroom bun needs to be replaced.

During the period when selling mushrooms, Li Shaoan did not forget to agree to Zhang Shide. Every day before leaving the village, a tricycle passed by the entrance of the primary school, and would place a large bag of mushrooms at the entrance of the school’s communication room.

On that day, Li Shaoan brought the Qian brothers back from Yangqiao Town with his brothers. The three of them had a very happy expression because they sold another 300 kilograms of mushrooms today.

Including the money sold today, after deducting the wages given to the Qian siblings, Li Shaoan held a total of 400 yuan in his hand.

After saying goodbye to the Qian siblings and returning to his home, Li Shaoan excitedly took 150 yuan to Shen Chunlan, plus the rent of the 150 yuan contracted land that he gave her last time, totaling 300 yuan, which was enough for her to pay back the money she owed to the village.

As for why Shen Chunlan is now in the Li family, because Li Shaoan’s elder brother and sister-in-law are busy taking care of rice in the fields, and the mushroom house at home needs someone to take care of. From time to time, villagers come to Li’s family to buy some mushrooms. Li Shaoan asks Shen Chunlan to help and start selling mushrooms.

Originally, Li Shaoan wanted to pay Shen Chunlan for wages, but Shen Chunlan refused to ask for it. She felt that Li Shaoan had helped her too much and would not need wages no matter what.

In addition to helping sell some mushrooms, Shen Chunlan also did the housework of the Li family, so that Tan Hongxia and Li Shaoguo had more time to watch in the fields.

After receiving the 150 yuan handed over by Li Shaoan, Shen Chunlan seemed not as happy as she imagined.

"What's wrong? Are you encountering any problems?" Li Shaoan noticed that Shen Chunlan was not in high spirits.

"Shao'an, our mushrooms are not sold today." It turns out that Shen Chunlan didn't care so much about repaying the money. It was a foregone conclusion that she cared about the money. What she cared about was that no one in the village came to buy mushrooms at home today.

Li Shaoan said carelessly: "It doesn't matter. The things sold in the village are all small fuss. They are originally affordable for the villagers. Maybe someone will buy them tomorrow."

Of course, Li Shaoan didn't care, because the main battlefield is now in Yangqiao Town. The mushrooms sold in the town can be as good as those sold in the village for many days. The number gap between the two is too large and it is not at the same level at all.

Chen Chunlan expressed the reason for her worries, "I heard that the Wang family also started selling mushrooms today, and their mushrooms were only 10 cents and 2 cents cheaper than ours. Everyone should have seen the Wang family's mushrooms sold cheaply, so they all went to the Wang family to buy them."

Li Shaoan smiled slightly and guessed that it must be Wang Xiangxiu's move.

The time between the two families set up a shed was half a month apart. When Li Shaoan sold out the first batch of mushrooms and the second batch of mushrooms came out, it happened to be the day when Wang Xiangxiu's mushrooms grew.

There was a competition between the two, and the winner depends on who sold more mushrooms, so Wang Xiangxiu wanted to steal Li Shaoan's customers at a lower price.

Chen Chunlan asked: "Shao'an, mushrooms are sold at the Wang family for 10 cents. Should we also reduce the price?"

"Finish, we will also drop to 100 cents from tomorrow."

Li Shaoan’s idea is very simple. In order to make money, the mushrooms sold in the village only need to allow the villagers to enjoy the benefits while ensuring their capital. One cent two is just one cent two, and three cents are not a big deal.

The next day, Li Shaoan sold out the mushrooms in the town and brought the Qian siblings back home. He thought that villagers would come to buy mushrooms today, but the result was unexpected.

Chen Chunlan still looked worried and said, "Today, their Wang family's mushrooms are only sold for one cent, and the villagers went to the Wang family to buy mushrooms."

"Oh, the Wang family is fighting with us." Qian Xiaoyu said angrily: "We sell 15 cents, he sells 12 cents, we sell 12 cents, he sells 12 cents, he sells 12 cents, isn't this obviously targeting us?"

"No, they did it on purpose, I have to go and reason with them!" Qian Xiaolin couldn't sit still, and she was irritable and immediately wanted to go to the Wang family to ask for an explanation.

Li Shaoan hurriedly stopped Qian Xiaolin. Qian Xiaolin was a fearless girl, and Wang Xiangxiu was also a person who had always been strong-willed. If the two had a conflict, Mars would have hit the earth.

"Xiao Lin, they grow these mushrooms. The price they sell is their freedom. Let them sell them."

"But I can't swallow this. The Wang family clearly did it on purpose."

Faced with this obvious provocative behavior, Qian Xiaolin couldn't swallow this. Li Shaoan was naturally not convinced. Wang Xiangxiu's actions aroused his competitive spirit. Li Shaoan was determined to say: "Since they are going to fight a price war, let's play with him to the end!"

Chen Chunlan said worriedly: "Shao'an, I see that the Wang family is coming in a fierce manner, and I'm afraid it's difficult to deal with it. So what price should we sell tomorrow?"

Li Shaoan thought: "If we follow the Wang family to lower the price and sell it to a cent, they will definitely only sell it for eight cents tomorrow. In this way, we will lose another city and cannot be led by them. We must take the initiative in our own hands."

Li Shaoan had long calculated the cost, manpower, material resources, and time of growing mushrooms. Taking these things into consideration, the cost of a pound of mushrooms is about seven cents, which is lower than seven cents, which means losing money.

"Sister-in-law Chunlan, you will sell it at 5 cents a pound tomorrow!" Li Shaoan said astonishingly.

"So low?" Chen Chunlan said in surprise.

"That's right, it's so low. If we want to beat her, we must be more ruthless than her!"

As the saying goes, "Don't fight for steamed buns and make a sigh." This matter has nothing to do with making money. It is purely to deal with Wang Xiangxiu's provocation. Tell Wang Xiangxiu that no matter how you play, I, Li Shaoan, will be with you to the end."

Li Shaoan has calculated that the cost of his own mushrooms is seven cents, and he will definitely catch Wang Xiangxiu off guard and win back the game.
