Chapter 103: A Daughter-in-law in Exchange for a Few Potatoes

The old man's face was full of apprehension.

But the people around him all looked at him with smiles.

"Lord Lin, you're really lucky!"

"Yes, you are the first to taste this acre of thousands of catties!"

"I can't envy this kind of good luck!"

"Lord Lin, don't be stunned, eat quickly!"

Everyone said.

Lord Li looked at Chen Chu's handsome and harmless face, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

He looked at Li Er.

Li Er said unhappily: "Lin Aiqing, don't you, as my courtier, even have this courage?" ”

"Yes......"

Lord Lin stiffened, with a sad and indignant face, and said to the people next to him: "Colleagues, for the sake of our ministers in the same palace, if something happens to me, please help me take care of my family!" ”

Everyone present was very righteous.

They all nodded.

"Lord Lin, don't worry, I will definitely take care of your whole family!"

"The concubine you just passed through the door will be handed over to me!"

"Your unmarried daughter, I will definitely take good care of her!"

"You can go with confidence......"

Lord Lin gritted his teeth, bent over, picked up the things that Chen Chu dug out in the clay pot with both hands, and bit it down.

Well?

This taste......

He froze.

The whole person fell into a stupor.

Li Er said dissatisfiedly: "Lin Aiqing, why don't you chew, why don't you swallow?" ”

Lord Lin was stunned, chewed a few times, and then swallowed with tears in his eyes.

Seeing this, Li Er asked, "Lin Aiqing, how does it taste?" ”

Lord Lin looked pained, "Your Majesty, the minister, the minister really can't say it!" ”

Can't tell?

Where is this artifact?

Can't even taste the taste?

Everyone looked curious.

Chen Chu said on the side: "This is not unusual, it may be that Lord Lin ate it too quickly and didn't taste it, so it's best to eat this whole potato." ”

"Yes, yes, Chen Chu is reasonable!"

"Lord Lin, you can eat it all!"

"Remember, chew a few more times!"

"Don't eat too fast!"

Wei Zheng and others came up with ideas on the side.

Lord Lin nodded tearfully, picked it up again, took a bite, clicked, and chewed for a while before swallowing it.

Soon, he ate the whole thing.

Looking at Lord Lin again, his face showed pain, as if he had eaten poison.

Li Er asked, "Lin Aiqing, how does it taste?" ”

Lord Lin's face twisted with muscles, and said, "Your Majesty, your ...... I feel that this potato is stinky! ”

Odoriferous?

How do you eat that?

How else to solve the food crisis in Datang?

The ministers all looked at Chen Chu.

Li Er also stared at Chen Chu curiously.

Chen Chu scratched his head: "It shouldn't be, there are many ways to eat this potato, although it doesn't taste so good when eaten raw, it won't stink, I'll take a look at ......"

He crouched down and pulled into the clay pot a few more times.

A thing that was the same thing that Master Fang Cailin ate got out again.

Syllable.

Chen Chu slapped his thigh and said, "Oops, I made a mistake...... This is not a potato......"

Li Er asked, "What is it that is not a potato?" ”

Chen Chu observed carefully and said, "If I'm not mistaken, this should be the feces of a certain animal, and I was so excited that I was dazzled......

Hiss!

The people around him gasped.

In this way, what Lord Lin ate was not potatoes.

Is it animal manure?

No wonder it stinks!

"Vomit ......"

Lord Lin suddenly lay down next to the pillar and vomited violently.

Chen Chuxin said, sample, I have no grievances with you, and you dare to scold me!

He picked up the stick and began to pull it up.

In a short time, a potato appeared.

It's the size of a fist.

Everyone was shocked.

This clay pot is not very big.

If such a big potato can grow in a clay pot, it is indeed amazing!

At this time, Chen Chu pulled out another one.

And also?

Everyone was stunned.

However, there is a third.

A moment later, five potatoes of various sizes were placed in the center of the main hall.

Li Er asked, "Chen Chu, this time it's right, right?" ”

Chen Chu nodded: "This time I made no mistake, this is the potato." ”

Li Er hurriedly ordered: "Come on, go and get a handful." ”

Gao Chen rushed away and took a handful of weighings.

In full view, five potatoes were weighed together.

"Three pounds is more than ......"

Someone exclaimed.

The ministers' eyes widened.

Such a small jar can produce more than 3,000 potatoes?

That acre of land, yielding thousands of catties, is not a problem at all!

Is there really such a miraculous thing in the world?

Just when everyone was in shock, Li Er asked, "Can you eat it?" ”

Chen Chu smiled slightly: "Get me a pot of charcoal." ”

A few eunuchs got a charcoal basin.

Chen Chu picked up two potatoes and threw them in.

He planned to let Li Er and the others see the simplest roasted potatoes.

Taking advantage of this effort, Chen Chu personally took out all the potatoes in the remaining three clay pots.

Each clay pot produces potatoes that are about three catties.

There was even a clay pot weighing only two potatoes, the size of two fists of an adult, which made the people present praise again and again.

Li Er said happily: "Ladies and gentlemen, God bless the Tang Dynasty, you actually let Chen Chu grow such a divine thing!" ”

Wei Zheng said suspiciously on the side: "I just don't know if this thing can be eaten." ”

Boom.

All eyes were focused on Chen Chu.

Chen Chu smiled without saying a word, picked up the stick, walked to the charcoal brazier, and pulled out the burnt potato chop inside.

He picked one up and handed it to Li Er.

Li Er was a little hesitant.

Gao Chen said: "Chen Chu, let me try it." ”

The first rule of the Emperor's Code: Don't eat anything from strangers!

Chen Chu pouted: "Do you still eat ......?"

As he spoke, he picked one up and skinned it.

Potatoes in your hands, steaming.

Milky white potatoes, still bubbling with aroma.

Since he crossed over to Datang, Chen Chu has never eaten potatoes again.

He hurriedly took a bite.

It's still a familiar taste!

Delicious!

At this time, the potatoes in Gao Chen's hands were only half peeled.

Li Er looked at Chen Chu, suddenly snatched it from Gao Chen's hand, and then bit it down.

In an instant, Li Er's face turned red.

Then he coughed violently.

"Your Majesty......"

"Oh no, this potato is poisonous!"

The ministers rushed up.

Someone even wanted to catch Chen Chu.

saw Li Er patting his chest, hurriedly raised his hand to stop everyone, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, don't panic, just ...... Ahem...... I was burned to the ......"

The crowd almost fainted.

Li Er ate a few more bites, and suddenly laughed: "It's so delicious, this potato is so delicious...... It's a delicacy in the world...... With this thing, my Datang will no longer be short of food in the future, and the people will be able to eat enough, Chen Chu, you have made a great contribution, say, what reward do you want? ”

Finally got down to business.

Chen Chu clapped his hands, wiped his mouth, and said, "Father, I'm not interested in being an official, and I don't care about the title, I only have one request......"

"Say!"

"I want to marry the eldest princess!" Chen Chu said bluntly.

This is something he had thought about on the way here.

A few potatoes in exchange for a daughter-in-law!

This wave is not a loss!
