Two days later, Zhao Yu and Xi Mengna climbed Xiaoyao Mountain again.
At that moment, Zhao Yu and the others were standing in an octagonal pavilion near the peak of Xiaoyao Mountain. On one side of the pavilion was the path that led to the crime scene.
From there, they could vaguely see the cave where the victims had been found.
"It's too far, really too far!" Manager Liu from the scenic area said. "After hearing the news, I asked a lot of old comrades.
"Some of them vaguely remember that in the nineties, someone planted ganoderma on the mountain, but it's hard to say where exactly …"
"It's said that there was a forestry society at that time," Captain Zhou from Kangle City said. "The affairs in the mountain were all managed by the forestry society.
"At that time, Bai Wenhai and the others established the ganoderma planting base, and they also signed a contract with the forestry society …"
"These few days, we've looked for a few staff members from that time, but they've all passed away!"
"Oh?" Captain Shi, who was with Zhao Yu, asked. "Didn't you say that you found an old expert who knew about the situation? Where is he? "
"Oh, Mr. Zhao Ji is on his way." Captain Zhou looked at his watch, then at the foot of the mountain. "He should be here soon?
"Oh, this Mr. Zhao Ji is the ganoderma planting expert in Kangle City. We talked before, and he said that he knew Bai Wenhai and knew about the ganoderma planting situation back then!"
Zhao Yu first looked at the foot of the mountain, then turned to look outside the pavilion.
The weather was beautiful that day. There was a sea of clouds outside the pavilion, and it was as beautiful as a fairyland.
"Manager Liu," Zhao Yu asked while enjoying the beautiful scenery, "you said last time that the cave where the victims were found was natural, right?"
"Yes, yes!" Manager Liu nodded. "It's been there since the renovation of the scenic area!"
"Oh …" Zhao Yu nodded slightly. "The murderer put the victims in that cave, maybe … there's a reason?"
"Oh? You mean, "Captain Zhou quickly asked," that cave, there's a story behind it? "
"Or …" Zhao Yu turned around and looked at the cave hidden in the mountain path. "What if their plantation base was near the cave?"
Just as Zhao Yu finished speaking, a few police officers came down the stairs. Among the police officers, there was an old man wearing glasses.
"He's here! He's here! "Captain Zhou quickly introduced him." This is the expert I mentioned, Mr. Zhao Ji! "
"Oh, he's from the same family!" Zhao Yu quickly stepped forward and shook hands with the expert. I'm really sorry for making you come all the way here! "
"Aiyo, don't say that. It's my responsibility to help the police!" Mr. Zhao Ji said modestly, "I'm an expert in growing Lingzhi, but I wouldn't dare to be an expert!"
"Captain Zhou said," Zhao Yu went straight to the point, "that you know Bai Wenhai?"
"Yes, of course I know him!" The expert said. "He is five years older than me. Back then, he worked in our family's Ganoderma base.
"This guy," Zhao Ji said, "He of Ji," "Old Ji Ji," He is is is is. is.
"Moreover, this guy has brains and guts. He actually dared to plant Purple Ganoderma in the wild. He earned a lot of money and even established a company. It's really enviable!"
", and Ji Yu yu Feng Feng Zhou," Zhou City, Chen Yu, "," Ji Feng … Can Yu, "Feng," Zhao Yang Long.
"Hmm, I think it was in 1986!" The old expert recalled. "After he left our house, he and his friends found a forest in the mountains and started to grow Purple Ganoderma!
"Apparently, they lost all their money in the first year, and only recovered in the second year. In the third year, they finally made a fortune!
"Because it was grown outdoors, his Ganoderma was no different from wild ones. At its peak, it could be sold for five hundred yuan per kilo. Back in the eighties, that was a sky-high price!" The old expert said enviously. "In China, not many people dared to buy it!
"But, those guys were very resourceful. They got overseas and sold the Ganoderma overseas! Within a few years, each of them bought a car … "
"Then …" Zhao Yu asked, "Do you know where they grew the Purple Ganoderma?"
"I don't know," the old expert answered. "That's a trade secret. I don't think they would divulge it.
"But, when they set up the company, I heard that they signed a lease agreement with the Forestry Association," the old expert said. "So, I guess it was most likely in a remote mountain?"
"Although the Purple Ganoderma was very valuable, it was very delicate. Even if they grew it in a greenhouse, it would still be bad!"
"I guess they had to find a natural environment that was especially suitable for the growth of the Purple Ganoderma. It had high temperature, high humidity, and the external environment didn't change much!"
"Also, they had to find a suitable culture root, as well as high-quality spores. All in all, although the Purple Ganoderma was very profitable, it was also very risky!"
"But, Bai Wenhai still succeeded. I don't know if he was lucky, or if he was really skilled …"
"What happened after that?" Zhao Yu asked. "Did you still keep in contact with him?"
"Hehe, people of the same trade are enemies!" The old expert smiled. "At most, we would say hello when we met!"
"But, Bai Wenhai's company seemed to be short-lived. About …" He recalled. "About five or six years?
"I think it was around 1993 or 1994, when his company went bankrupt!"
"I'm not too sure about the specific situation. Maybe it was because the Purple Ganoderma was not planted well, or maybe the greenhouse gradually became popular, which impacted them. Or, maybe there was some internal conflict!"
"Anyway, from then on, the few of them separated," the old expert said. "But, Bai Wenhai had the skills, so he continued to work in the Ganoderma plantation business. He also started the greenhouse business, and it was quite successful!"
"Unfortunately …" The old man said regretfully. "Something happened to him later! His brother didn't know the business, so the big business gradually declined. "
"Later, his brother couldn't take it anymore, so he started to transfer the base. I even took over a few of the greenhouses …"
"Then …" Zhao Yu thought for a while, then asked, "Besides Bai Wenhai, do you have any impression of the other people in the company?"
"No, of course not!" The old expert said. "Everything I know, I heard from others!"
"I only know that their plantation base was in the mountains, but the warehouse and the company office were located in the suburbs of Kangle, which is near Ying Zhuangzi."
"Because it was a transportation hub, it was convenient to ship goods. Our family also had a warehouse there …"
"I still remember that one year, there was a robbery at their warehouse. I think … someone died!"
"Huh?!"
Zhao Yu and Xi Mengna exclaimed at the same time. The old expert was shocked!
"You said … someone died in their company?!" Zhao Yu asked. "Tell me, who was the person who died?!"
