Chen Chen is not unfamiliar with entering the forest. After all, he has taken Groot into the mountains several times before. But it also needs to be admitted that it is not about entering the depths of the mountains, let alone the original forest, nor has he deliberately selected mountains with complex terrain.

This time I entered the mountain, I was also selective, but I didn’t just rush into the mountain to dig truffles.

Chen Chen, who arrived in Oregon, first asked about the main truffle production areas and asked about some information in the town of the sister city on the eastern foot of the Sierra Nevada. For example, truffle buyers asked about the current price or the ownership of some surrounding forest farms.

Chen Chen did not plan to enter some private woodlands, maybe the environment there was a little better. But if he was caught, it would be troublesome.

Even if some public lands have a little more competitiveness, they may meet people of all kinds. But be careful and there is no big mistake. Chen Chen is not timid, but he just doesn't want to take risks when he is not sure. That's really not worth it.

Go straight to Willamette National Forest Park and follow the mountain road toward the deeper forest.

"When I have money, the first thing I do is to change the car!" Chen Chen's endurance has almost reached its limit for this car that I don't know how many times it is. "I'm worried that it will fall apart at any time, break down, and shock absorption will not work. It's a turbulent one, right?"

Groot had no intention of paying attention to Chen Chen at all. The thin vines that emerged from his little paws stuck to the glass window. He was looking at the view outside the car window.

Although Groot ignored Chen Chen, Chen Chen still had something to say, "When we came just now, you also heard what those people said, right? Those people obviously looked down on us and thought we were crazy! If we don't steam buns and try to make a sigh of relief, we must dig a little more truffles so that we can be proud!"

Groot still ignored Chen Chen. He was busy now and had no intention of listening to Chen Chen's nagging and talking.

It feels like it is almost done, and there are basically not many people coming to this mountain road. And if it is not fooled, this is a homeless place. So as long as you don’t meet your peers or those medicine dealers hiding in the mountains, the problem should not be big.

Carrying his own little rake, Chen Chen was even more dissatisfied with this shape. The only thing he thanked was the four-tooth rake, not the nine-tooth. Thankfully, except for the rake, the rest of the rake was iron, so the rest was made of wood, so it was lighter.

If it became Zhu Bajie's look, Chen Chen would definitely be crying without tears.

"Trusts are said to grow at the roots of broad-leaved trees, such as pine, oak, and oak trees." Chen Chen said to himself as he walked, "It's about a distance of about 1.5 meters and burying these trees in a radius of about a few centimeters to forty centimeters underground, right?"

Chen Chen showed off some of the knowledge he had just learned and temporarily crammed the knowledge. "They have extremely strict requirements on the growth environment and must use the symbiotic relationship with the roots to obtain nutrients. Therefore, as long as the surrounding environment undergoes subtle changes, truffle spores will not be able to grow."

When I remembered, there was another key point, "It is said that the nutrients of truffles come from attached tree roots and soil. If truffles grow in a place, the nutrients of the land and plants will be absorbed by the truffles and will not be able to grow anything else for a period of time."

"ah!"

Groot's cry made Chen Chen speechless. If Groot one day becomes a rude, Chen Chen will definitely be extremely guilty.

Chen Chen, who put his hands on his hips, raised his head and said angrily, "You are a tree man, running on the ground! Look at what you look like now?! He has become a monkey, and he likes to swing around the trees!"

Groot didn't care about Chen Chen's criticism at all. A thin vine more than one meter long appeared in his left hand, wrapping around the branches of a pine tree. He swung forward with force and his body soared into the air. When he reached the apex, the thin vine that emerged with his right hand wrapped around a branch again...

Seeing Groot breaking and the abandoned vines hardened and withered quickly, Chen Chen shook his head with a smile. Groot is so hungry that it is so wasteful that he always uses his strength to useless places.

I am too lazy to talk about Groot. Whether it is learning monkeys or Spider-Man, Chen Chen really doesn't care. Who is in the mountains now? What I lack the most is soil. If you are hungry, go and eat soil. This is what Groot is good at.

I came to a pine forest, which was relatively open and suitable for digging here.

‘Dong’

Just as Chen Chen bent down and started digging, his head hurt and a dull sound.

"Wow!"

"ah!"

Groot, who fell on the ground, was angry that he jumped down from the tree just now, but Chen Chen didn't catch him, and he was incompetent in his crime. When Groot was even more angry, Chen Chen hit Groot with his head, causing Groot to sit on the ground.

As soon as he got up, Groot's little claws immediately burst out and thrust towards Chen Chen.

After hiding for a few times, Chen Chen was annoyed, "Is it over?"

Groot's movements suddenly stopped, Chen Chen's voice was quite loud, and Groot heard Chen Chen's anger. So he lowered his head and looked at Chen Chen with grievance. It was useless to look up his head and cry loudly. He secretly looked at Chen Chen a few times and found that Chen Chen was still rubbing his head and looked annoyed.

Groot was sad and lowered his little head; his hands were hanging down, dragging the thin vine that had not been abandoned slowly forward.

Chen Chen himself was annoyed because Groot sometimes liked to make trouble. However, seeing Groot deliberately walking very slowly, even taking a few steps and looking back, Chen Chen was indeed amused by Groot.

"Okay, come back!"

As soon as Chen Chen finished speaking, he regretted it.

Groot, who had already walked more than three meters away, immediately became lively and rushed over again with a waving vine. The meaning was very obvious, that was that Chen Chen was so sad that Groot was so sad, that Chen Chen was angry just now and scared the cute Groot.

Forget it, just treat it as if you are playing with Groot, which is what you have been doing a few days ago.

After playing with Groot for half an hour, Chen Chen didn't know how much he rolled on the ground. Fortunately, the ground was basically filled with pine needles, which were relatively soft. After getting up, he patted it a little, and it was not a big problem.

As for Groot, I don’t know how many times he was thrown out by Chen Chen as a baseball. Every time he threw it out gently, then watched Groot clamoring to kill him, then grabbed him and threw it away. Chen Chen was chased by Groot, and the next moment, Groot might be fleeing in panic. In short, happiness is over, and you don’t need to care about anything else.

In a good mood, Chen Chen pointed to the ground, "Replenish the nutrition quickly, otherwise you will be so hungry that you can't walk."

Groot moved to Chen Chen and angrily whipped the ground with a small vine.

Chen Chen, who was speechless, could only push the pine needle apart, revealing the dark soil. Groot, this guy, thought the pine needle was in trouble. He was too lazy to move his little hand, so he needed Chen Chen to help him solve these troubles.

Being spoiled, Chen Chen really felt that he was very likely to spoil Groot.

When Groot was replenishing nutrition, Chen Chen also began to dig the soil and dig out the truffle, which would make money.

If it is a well-deserved, mature truffle, it is now worth one hundred dollars per pound. If you dig ten pounds, it is one thousand dollars!

It takes hard work, and Chen Chen’s requirements are not high. Ten pounds, that is, nine pounds, are not too much.

Chen Chen, who was digging truffles for the first time, paid close attention to the soil, for fear of missing the truffles or for fear of digging out large pieces of truffles.

'Depend on'!

Chen Chen couldn't help it anymore. Groot worked hard to absorb about an hour of nutrients. Almost sucked the land into a dry block ground. Chen Chen only discovered it when Groot shouted and ran over.

It is slightly larger than mung beans, but it is the size of broad beans. This is the first truffle that Chen Chen dug out.

Looking at the truffle in Chen Chen's hand, Groot looked at it curiously. The thin vines that emerged wrapped around Chen Chen's wrists. Groot climbed onto Chen Chen's hand and stared at the truffle in Chen Chen's hand. He seemed very curious about why this thing was so popular with Chen Chen's favor. He attached more importance to this rags than to attach importance to Groot!

Looking at Groot, Chen Chen asked, "Did you see this thing? Can you find it?"

Groot blinked his big eyes in a daze, not understanding what Chen Chen meant.

Chen Chen further explained that it was very simple and crude, "Money, this is money!"

money?

Groot understood, the thin vines that emerged from his little claws drilled into Chen Chen's pocket, rolled out Chen Chen's wallet, and then poked the paper bills proudly.

He quickly took the wallet back, and Chen Chen continued to explain, "You eat dirt, I rely on it to make money."

After saying this, Chen Chen gestured over and over again the action of using truffles to exchange money. Groot was confused at first, but then slowly seemed to understand.
