Chapter 890
Shage is a cold potato, two names for the same thing, and the people in the village call it a cold potato.
Jing Rui resisted the urge to pluck his ears: "How much do you say this cold potato yields per mu?"
Jing Rui couldn't have imagined that in this world, in addition to sweet potatoes, there are also sand ge, which can yield thousands of catties or even tens of thousands of catties per mu, which is definitely the welfare of the poor.
Now the grain yield is high, but some people who have no land still can't eat enough, those people just rely on eating sweet potatoes to satisfy their hunger, but although the yield of sweet potatoes is high, they can't be eaten on an empty stomach, and there will be a feeling of heartburn when eaten on an empty stomach.
Even if you eat too many sweet potatoes, you will often have hiccups.
Now cold potatoes can also yield tens of thousands of catties per mu, so those who only have wasteland can also grow some cold potatoes to eat.
"Big brother heard it right, it is indeed thousands of catties or even tens of thousands of catties. This cold potato is a good thing, it can be eaten raw or cooked, it is very sweet, and juicy, it is like a fruit when eaten raw, and it is also a delicious dish when cooked.
In addition, because the starch content of the old ripe root of the cold potato is higher, the starch can be extracted and processed into cold potato powder, which can be stored for a longer time, and it can be used as a staple food, so that you don't have to worry about heartburn when you eat it with sweet potatoes. ”
"Is cold potato flour easy to make?" If it's easy to make, publish the method of cold potato flour and let Yum grow its own cold potatoes and make it yourself.
In the past, the imperial court announced the practice of sweet potato flour, and now many grocery stores and noodle shops have sweet potato noodles and sweet potato flour for sale, the price is not high, but many people love to buy and eat, and in winter, a bowl of hot and sour potato flour goes down, and the whole person is warm.
"It's not difficult, it's about the same as sweet potato flour, but because cold potatoes are juicier than sweet potatoes, the amount of flour is a little less than sweet potatoes. Xiao'er shook her head, the method of making vermicelli is much the same.
Jing Rui nodded after hearing this: "This is certain, but in this case, probably many Yum will be reluctant to use it to make powder." ”
Who would like to have so many things missing! Lao Baisheng cherishes food the most, and only hopes for more, not less.
"If you are not willing to give up, you have to be willing, storage resistance does not mean that it will not break, and it is better to make powder than to put it bad. Shangguan Xuanyi said lightly.
"That's too. Jing Rui knows that cold potatoes can yield nearly 10,000 catties per mu, and the whole person is relaxed, now he just needs to study how to grow cold potatoes to make it produce 10,000 catties per mu, and then publish this method.
"Big brother, you have to invite me to the restaurant and have a good meal, but I have found such a good achievement for you. ”
Xiao'er believes that as long as the cold potatoes are planted and a cold potato flour workshop is set up, then it can provide employment opportunities for many people, and it can also make some Yum rely on selling cold potatoes to earn silver, even if it is a penny or two catties to buy cold potatoes, one mu of land can produce 10,000 catties, so that one acre of land can also earn five taels of silver, and cold potatoes are planted for five months to harvest is the best, early harvest affects yield, late harvest is not good. It is harvested once every five months, and can be planted twice a year. That is to say, if a family has one acre of dry land, it can earn ten taels of silver a year from cold potatoes.
And after the cold potatoes are planted, as long as they are taken care of regularly, such as watering, fertilizing, and weeding. Pruning, erecting scaffolding, topping and other tasks can be done as long as they are done in the morning and evening, and they will not affect the work at all, so that as long as they are diligent people, they will be able to live a good life.
Many poor people also sell sweet potatoes to sweet potato workshops, and then work in the workshops to make a living for their families.
It's just that now there are more and more people who grow sweet potatoes in large quantities, and there is an oversupply, which makes it cheaper and cheaper every year, so the income from growing sweet potatoes is also less than in the previous two years.
However, some clever people knew that they used sweet potatoes to make sweet potato cakes, shredded sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, and dried sweet potatoes and sold them on the streets of the city, and they also made a lot of money.
In short, it is a sentence: as long as you are willing to use your brain and be diligent, you will not starve to death.
There are people in this world who grow potatoes and make a little money by selling potatoes.
There are people in this world who grow potatoes and then process them into fries and chips to make more money.
What does this mean, it means: income = labor + technology + intelligence
Effective labor, technology, and intelligence, for every little more you give, you can earn a little more.
"What's so hard about that! You can eat as many meals as you want. If you are willing, the eldest brother will take you down to the restaurant every day until you are too old to walk. ”
"No need. Shangguan Xuanyi heard this and directly refused, his woman, when does he need to raise him, take the girl to the restaurant every day, until she can't walk, the person should be herself!
Xiao'er glared at the person who was pulling his back legs: "The eldest brother is willing to pay the money to take me to the restaurant, why do you refuse!
Shangguan Xuanyi: "......"
Jing Rui pretended to be sad when he heard this, and glanced at Xiao'er: "Sure enough, it's a girl who is outgoing!"
Shangguan Xuanyi was not happy when he heard this: "This is not called a girl's extroversion, this is called husband and wife! You hurry up and marry a daughter-in-law, don't understand nothing! The closest relatives in this world are husband and wife, do you understand!"
Before getting married, he always hindered their husband and wife from making love, and after getting married, he even wanted to help raise his daughter-in-law, hmph, he couldn't afford it!
Jing Rui was not happy when he heard this, "My dear relatives and husband and wife, you can say two words less! Besides, even if Xiao'er marries you, she is also my own sister, and she has the same blood as me, of course it is my eldest brother!"
"There is no sparseness, only close relatives! The daughter who marries out, the water that spills out, the girl is an outsider in her mother's house!"
Xiao'er watched two naïve men arguing about who she was closer to", and couldn't help but roll her eyes, she really didn't bother to pay attention to them anymore, let them quarrel on their own.
Xiao'er stood up directly and walked out.
Shangguan Xuanyi saw Xiao'er standing up, and hurriedly stood up: "Where is the girl?"
"You're too noisy, I'll go hide and clean up!" Xiao'er said unceremoniously.
Jing Rui glared at Shangguan Xuanyi when he heard this: "It's all your fault, it's stingy!"
Shangguan Xuanyi didn't give him one with a cold eye, and directly proved who was the closest relative with his actions: "Girl, let's go back to the room, it's been a busy day, go to bed early tonight." ”
How could Xiao'er not understand Shangguan Xuanyi's careful thinking, naïve, she ignored him, turned back to Jing Rui and said, "Big brother, you fell into the water today to save people, and you have been busy for another day, so you should rest early." ”
"Okay, you can rest early, too. Jing Rui agreed with a smile on his face when he heard this, and then glanced at Shangguan Xuanyi defiantly, before standing up and returning to his room satisfied.
My sister still cares about him as a big brother!
"Childish!" Shangguan Xuanyi spat out two words.
"Don't you do the same!" Xiao'er heard this, and gave him a farewell.
Shangguan Xuanyi touched his nose when he touched it.
