Most of these people had experienced wilderness survival and were very familiar with wild things. Now that they had something at hand, how could they not be interested?
They hadn't acted earlier simply because Sean Knight hadn't given the order. Those accustomed to discipline wouldn't act on their own.
Now that they had instructions, they immediately sprang into action, and soon they made some discoveries.
Four snow-white Monkey head mushrooms were collected.
Two Pieces of birch fungus weighing over a dozen kilograms each were presented before Sean Knight.
A pile of mushrooms—mostly oyster mushrooms.
A large heap of wood ear mushrooms.
Douglas Cooper came back proudly with a string of big crucian carps skewered on a tree branch.
Sean Knight pointed to the birch fungus and said to Sergei,
"You've studied in the Northeast, you know the value of this thing, right?"
"I know, it's expensive."
