Chapter 210: New-style Loom_1

A few days later, the weather suddenly became muggy, followed by light rain.

The rain grew heavier and it went on for three days straight before it stopped.

Most of the villagers had already dried their golden and silver fungus, packed them in cloth bags, and stored them in bamboo buckets.

By November, drum signals from the county called upon every household to send one person for mandatory labor service.

The service was to repair the city walls and clean the rivers running through the county, estimated to last about a month.

Jiang Sanlang organized a village meeting and told the villagers, "Steward Zhou will be coming over these few days to buy fungus, so prepare the golden ears you intend to sell by weighing them exactly. Don't mix in any spoiled or moldy ones to avoid disputes."

The last time they sold golden fungus, a few households had mixed in moldy ones which caused friction when discovered by Zhou Mao.
