PS: (Three watches are coming!) ）

Li Su called three maids to carry the pile of potatoes to the kitchen, Li Su followed to the kitchen, Cui Yingying was curious to follow, but was driven back by Li Su.

In the kitchen, Zhang San's head was big, and he didn't know what to do in the face of this pile of potatoes, he had never served this thing.

Li Su picked up a potato and said to Zhang San: "Look at it carefully, and this king will teach you again." ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhang San squatted down, intently looking at how Li Su peeled it, he saw that there was only a thin layer of translucent skin on the surface of the potato, and it fell off with a light scrape, scraped a potato clean Li Su washed it in water, took the potato and said: "Look, this is done, it's very simple, go wash out these potatoes." ”

Zhang San gave the order, called the family who was also watching on the side, and said, "Hurry up, what are you still stunned about." These few family members were specially assigned to him by Li Su, as the saying goes, this chef also needs a few side dishes.

He cut a few potatoes into pieces, first put the cut pieces of meat into them, and then put in the star anise and other ingredients, and put the potatoes in when adding water to stew the meat.

Zhang San has been staring carefully at the whole process of Li Su's cooking, and he still boasts of his unparalleled cooking skills in front of others, but in front of Li Su, he feels that he is a dirt bag, and the dishes made by Li Su are not only unheard of, but the taste is also delicious, even if it is an imperial chef like his master, he can't make it.

After simmering for a while, Li Su lifted the pot and tasted it. I felt that it was almost over, and said, "Let people bring the dishes to the south courtyard." By the way, these potatoes are boiled. ”

"Yes, Your Highness!" Zhang San responded.

Li Su was just about to leave, thought of something, and said: "These potatoes don't need to be peeled, just put them in clean water and boil them, and after they are boiled, you and the people in the kitchen will take one and taste it." I'll send the rest to the South Courtyard. ”

Zhang San responded again, after Li Su left, Zhang San hurriedly prepared the pot and began to cook potatoes, this thing is a new product, this time you can show off in front of the family again, remembering the fish that was robbed last time, he still hated his teeth, this time he vowed to eat the potatoes in front of the family.

When Li Su returned to the Southern Courtyard. Cui Yingying was talking and laughing with a person on the side of the small bridge, Li Yu took a closer look, but it was Su Mo'er, he just wanted to walk over, and the figure ran onto the small bridge, and Su Xiaoyan also came over.

Meet Li Su. Su Mo'er's face was slightly red, and she said, "Your Highness, Xiaoyan has to go back to the palace to play, and Mo'er will bring her over, Your Highness won't be surprised." ”

Li Su just wanted to speak. Cui Yingying interrupted: "Your Highness also likes Xiaoyan very much, how can she be strange?" ”。 She looked at the sky and said, "Coincidentally, His Highness ordered the kitchen to make braised pork and stewed potatoes, and Mo'er and Xiaoyan should stay and eat together tonight." ”

"It's... How can this be! Although Su Mo'er said this, she looked at Li Su with her eyes, which meant that a fool could understand.

Li Su sighed secretly in his heart, saying that three women in one play, these two women will sing double reed together, he said: "It's better to come early than to come by chance, you and Xiaoyan are just two people, let's stay." ”

As he spoke, several maidservants brought the night's food, and Cui Yingying pulled Cui Yingying with one hand and Su Mo'er with the other hand and walked towards the house.

Li Su followed him into the house.

Let the maid add two more dishes and chopsticks, Cui Yingying couldn't wait to pick up a piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth, and then squinted her eyes happily, in the Tang Dynasty, slaves and maids and masters could not eat at the same table, even if they were concubines, but Su Moer's identity was special, and Cui Yingying and Li Su didn't care about these, but in Su Moer's opinion, it was the recognition of her by the two of them for a certain status, so the happier she was.

Su Mo'er learned from Cui Yingying's appearance and ate a piece, first stunned for a moment, and then chewed slowly in her mouth, obviously aftertaste, she was still a little reserved, after all, this was eating with Li Su, and Su Xiaoyan did not have this reserve, she had lived in the palace before, and the food was the same as Li Su's, she ate whatever Li Su ate, and this meal was all from Zhang San's hand.

But after moving out, everything has changed, although this cook is half of Zhang San's apprentice, and the things he uses are also firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar distributed by the palace, but the taste is different.

Therefore, when she tasted Zhang San's craftsmanship again, coupled with Li Su's specialty dishes, the little girl devoured it, which made Su Moer very embarrassed.

"Come, taste the potatoes, why are you going to eat meat!" Li Su added a piece of potato to the three of them, "This is the potato that can be harvested immediately in the field, let's try it." ”

Cui Yingying hesitated, but still didn't dare to move the chopsticks, after all, this is a completely unfamiliar food, and this kind of food will instinctively resist unfamiliar things.

Li Su saw her like this, so he first picked one up and stuffed it into his mouth, and his mouth was immediately full of fragrance.

Cui Yingying saw that Li Su looked very happy to eat, and she had the courage to eat a piece, this first piece went down, and she couldn't stop talking, Su Moer and Su Xiaoyan saw it, and they also picked up chopsticks and stretched out to the potatoes, and a plate of braised pork and stewed potatoes was quickly eliminated.

After eating a meal, the three of them were still unsatisfied, Su Mo'er said: "I didn't expect this potato to be so delicious, I will definitely buy some when the harvest comes." ”

Cui Yingying kept nodding, the two girls were chatting, and a maid came in from outside, saying that a pot of potatoes had been sent from the kitchen.

After Jin Daqian came, Li Su asked him to divide the pot of potatoes into several portions and send them to Shangguanyi, Wang Yinlong, Dou Xiande, Cui Zhang and others, and let them taste fresh, let them have an understanding in advance, and discuss with them about this potato harvest tomorrow.

After getting Li Su's instructions, Jin Daqian immediately sent people to send them one by one, when the family arrived at Shangguan Yi's mansion, Shangguan Yi was eating with his wife and children, and Li Su's current requirement for officials serving in Yizhou is that their families and children must live in Yizhou, which is the same reason as today's "naked officials". If a person's assets and relatives are in another state, the cost of betrayal is much smaller for them. And this is what Li Su does not want to see, of course, he is not targeting certain people, this is just a system.

"Potatoes?" Knowing that Li Surang sent a new type of crop potato, Shangguan Yi immediately came to his senses, put down his chopsticks and took three fist-sized cooked potatoes, "Hehe, it's really hot!" Shangguan Yi said with a smile.

The family sent potatoes and retired. At this time, a little child with thick eyebrows and big eyes ran to Shangguan Yi and said, "Father, what is this?" ”

"It's called a potato!" Shangguan Yi had already seen it, and a few days ago he was still in Yangshu Village to inspect the ripeness of the potatoes, when Wei Tieniu pulled out a few plants on the spot for him to see, and he still remembered the satisfied smile on Wei Tieniu's face.

It's just that although he has seen it, he has not had time to taste it. That Wei Tieniu didn't know how to eat this thing, so he took a bite of the raw potatoes at that time, and spit them all out.

Now that Li Su sent this potato, Shangguan Yi was a little afraid to say it, but he thought that Li Su specially asked someone to send it. He was ruthless, picked one up and took a bite.

It's just that this bite made Shangguan Yi stunned, this potato is mellow and fragrant, very soft, and it is really a rare delicacy.

"Tingzhi, you can also try one!" Shangguan Yi stuffed a potato into Shangguan Tingzhi's hand. and gave the other one to his wife.

At this time, Shangguan Tingzhi was only a six-year-old naughty boy, and he believed his father's words. I took a bite and said, "It's delicious!" After chewing a few bites, Shangguan Tingzhi said happily......

The next day, Li Su went to the Assassin's Office, and when he saw a group of officials, Li Su smiled and said, "How is it?" The potatoes that this king has given you are still appetizing. ”

"Your Highness, this potato is really delicious, Wei Chen thinks that he has eaten all over the mountains and seas, but this potato still makes me appetite." Dou Xiande said first.

Cui Zhang was not far behind, "Your Highness, Weichen is also eating this for the first time, but I think it is very delicious, better than many delicacies." ”

When the two said this, Shangguan Yi, Wang Yinlong and the others all nodded in agreement.

Potatoes aren't really a delicacy in modern times, and these people are only eating them for the first time, so they find them amazing.

Li Yu still remembers chatting with an elderly man, he said that young people still like to eat sour and hot shredded potatoes, and their generation wants to vomit when they see potatoes, because the potato has a high yield, and there was no food to eat at that time, so he would eat this, and he used to eat boiled potatoes and baked potatoes for three meals a day, which was really disgusting.

Li Su's original intention of bringing potatoes to Yizhou was, of course, to solve the problem of food and clothing first, but now the situation is much better than he expected, and the scarcity of the population in the early Tang Dynasty also led to a lot of land for the common people, although the yield per mu is not much, but dozens of acres add up to a lot of harvest, especially after Li Su re-equalized the field, the people's paddy fields were planted with rice, and this season was harvested, enough for food and clothing.

But food and clothing is not the goal of Li Su's pursuit, he wants to let the people of Yizhou have money in their hands, because they have no worries about food and clothing, people will pursue spiritual civilization, and a hungry person to discuss Van Gogh's oil paintings is no different from a madman, and after food and clothing, the people naturally sprout spiritual pursuits, then education is no longer a problem.

"Then how much do you think this potato sells for a pound?" Li Su turned to the topic, this poplar village has grown potatoes in every village, adding up to about 20,000 acres of land, and he himself planted 40,000 acres of potatoes, according to the calculation of one mu and 20 stones, this is 1.2 million stone potatoes, according to the calculation of one pound a person a day, these potatoes are enough for 40,000 people to eat for a month.

Shangguan Yi said: "Although this potato is delicious, but the yield is large, it may not be sold if it is too expensive, after all, this is just an ordinary food, and the minister thinks that the price of rice per catty should not be too big." ”

"That's a good point!" Li Su nodded in agreement, this is exactly what Li Su thought, although this potato is a fresh thing, but it must be sold for money, otherwise the villagers of this poplar village will not drink the northwest wind this season, but to sell it, the price of this potato can not be too expensive, otherwise the people are willing to buy it, after all, this potato is for ordinary people, and the family can't eat much.

Wang Yinlong said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, it's better to spend ten cents a bucket, it's a little more expensive than the price of rice, so that the people are willing to plant in the future, and according to His Highness, this mu is harvested into twenty stones, one stone is ten buckets, and this acre of land is two dollars, and this poplar village now plants forty or fifty acres of land at every turn, and this season's income is one hundred dollars, which is impossible in the past." Wang Yinlong calculated that he had jumped down, and he had caught up with his year's salary.

Wang Yinlong's mention was approved by many people, and Li Su estimated that it was about the same, and then he said: "It will be a matter of time for the price to be set, and then how to sell it is a big deal." ”

"What Your Highness said is that not many people have ever seen potatoes except us, and if they are suddenly sold, no one will be willing to buy them." Cui Tong groaned.

Li Su smiled, "So this is the purpose of this king looking for you, the people are important, the king is light, and the interests of the people must be put first, so we want to find a way out for the people, that is, to hold a large-scale exhibition when the merchants from all over the country have not left, so that the merchants from all over the world can know about this new food." ”

"Fair!" Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they are speechless for a while.
