Chapter 114: Sweet Potato
Two acres of sweet potatoes took a day to finish, gratifying, the last said actually reached 10,000 catties per mu, this number came out, immediately shocked everyone.
Ten thousand pounds! What kind of concept is this, the best fertile land today is only 400 catties of rice per mu, and the yield of 10,000 catties per mu is astronomical for them, which is simply out of reach.
At this time, looking at those sweet potatoes, the villagers were full of eagerness, and they all began to make friends with the Xu family brothers, wanting the Xu family to have some seeds.
Wang Shen heard that the Xu family produced 10,000 catties per mu at home, and hurried over, grain has always been the foundation of the country, and the Xu family grows such a high-yield thing, and he will be ashamed as the village head.
Wang Shen, who hurried to the scene, saw the mountains of sweet potatoes on the ground, and his face turned red with excitement.
"Xu Guangqi, Xu Guanghua, this sweet potato you planted can really be used as food, and the yield per mu is 10,000 catties?"
"Yes." The brothers couldn't understand why he was so excited.
Wang Shen laughed after hearing this: "Okay, okay, I want to report this matter to the county magistrate." ”
Wang Shen was very happy, Xu Jianai was a villager in Beishan Village, and it was also his political achievement as the village head, maybe he could go further with this matter.
At night, bursts of fragrance came from the kitchen of the Xu family from time to time, causing people in the courtyard to swallow their saliva.
Village chief Wang Shen and Li Dashun and some people who are good friends with the Xu family are all sitting in the courtyard at this time.
In the kitchen, Xu Qingyan is directing the Hu family to make a sweet potato feast, boiled sweet potatoes, shredded sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, sweet potato balls, and sweet potato porridge.
Because of her foodie attributes in her previous life, Xu Qingyan's cooking skills are actually not bad, but she has traveled through another world, and there is no familiar gas stove and some modern household appliances, so she really feels that it is so difficult for her to cook while burning the fire.
The newly built kitchen of the Xu family is as large as the previous four, and in the kitchen of 80 square meters, there are three stoves, and all three pots are burned at this time.
The pot next to the door was steaming sweet potatoes, and there were a few sweet potatoes buried in the stove below.
The pot in the middle is making shredded sweet potatoes, and the pot in the back is cooking sweet potato porridge.
Wang Shen, who was sitting and waiting in the courtyard, smelled the fragrance coming from the air, thinking about the high yield of sweet potatoes, he didn't even have the heart to drink tea, and his eyes were staring at the kitchen tightly.
Li Dashun and the others were complacent, and drank cup after cup of tea on the table, and just when Wang Shen felt that he had endured to the limit, the person finally came out.
The Hu family brought all kinds of delicacies made of sweet potatoes to the table one by one.
Xu Guangqi said with a smile: "You have been waiting for a long time, the dishes have been served, how about everyone taste it?" ”
A few people couldn't hold it back for a long time, but when they saw that Xu Guang was inspired, they were no longer polite at the moment, and immediately tasted it.
Xu Qingyan was sitting in the kitchen at this time, holding a roasted sweet potato and turning it upside down.
The mouth shouted: "It's hot, it's hot." ”
Seeing this, Cao Shi said angrily: "You can't wait to eat again, there are steamed sweet potatoes in this pot, and you are reluctant to let go when you are scalded like that." ”
Xu Qingyan continued to shake her sweet potatoes and smiled: "Grandma, the steamed ones don't have the fragrance of roasting, I want to eat them now." ”
Cao Shi shook his head, there was really nothing he could do with her!
Xu Qingyan blew a few more times, until she felt less hot, then she slowly tore open the burnt skin, and after taking a bite, the familiar taste made her squint.
I haven't eaten baked sweet potatoes for a long time, I used to eat them when I was young in my previous life, and I rarely ate them when I grew up, and when I was in college, there were often sweet potatoes sold at the school gate, and I would buy one or two when I was hungry.
Now that they are a lifetime apart, the same smell seems to remind her that her previous life was not a dream.
After eating most of the sweet potato, Xu Qingyan felt a little full, because of the aura rune water, this sweet potato is not only big, but also tastes even better than the one in the previous life.
After tasting the sweet potato feast, Wang Shen no longer doubted this, and came to the conclusion that this thing was not only full, but also delicious, and the yield was high.
I was excited about the benefits I might get if I reported it.
。。。。。。
The next day, the Xu family's breakfast consisted of sweet potato porridge and steamed sweet potatoes, plus a plate of stir-fried sweet potato stalks.
There are hundreds of catties of sweet potato vines on two acres of land alone, and if it weren't for the aura charm water to keep it fresh, so many sweet potato vines would have been spoiled a long time ago.
Xu Qingyan didn't want to eat sweet potato vines every day, but so many sweet potato vines always had to be sold off, so she sent a few catties to relatives and friends, and a few catties to people who were friends in the same village, so that there were still 300 catties left.
Xu Qingyan thought that she could sell it to Yingbin Lou to try, no matter how much money she had, she could make some money.
"Yo, it's unfortunate that my son came, and he was still having breakfast so late?" Because of the tiring day yesterday, the Xu family got up late today.
Looking at this uninvited person, Xu Qingyan was a little speechless, but when the guest came, she had to say hello.
"Has the eldest prince eaten, do you want to eat some together?"
What Xu Qingyan said was really kind words, firstly, it was so late, this guy must have had breakfast, and secondly, the eldest young master who was used to eating good things would not look down on their porridge and side dishes.
Who knew that after Wu Tianyou glanced at the food on the table, he nodded: "Okay." With that, he sat down on his own.
Xu Qingyan was stunned, she really ate, she just said politely.
Xu Guangqi saw that the county commander sat down, and hurriedly asked Wu to bring another pair of dishes and chopsticks.
Wu Tianyou pointed to the porridge in the big basin and asked, "What is this?" ”
"Sweet potato porridge."
"Sweet potatoes? What is it? Wu Tianyou scooped a spoonful and took a closer look.
Xu Qingyan glanced at him and remembered something, "The seeds of Fanbang, planted by my family, you came just in time, I have something to tell you." ”
Wu Tianyou's face was surprised, and then he said, "I also have something to tell you." ”
"Okay, let's talk about it after eating." Xu Qingyan looked at the Cao family with a restrained face, knowing that they were uncomfortable eating at the same table with Wu Tianyou, so they just wanted to finish the meal quickly.
After the meal, under the grape trellis, Xu Qingyan and Wu Tianyou sat opposite each other.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me today?" Xu Qingyan spoke first.
"Let's talk first." Wu Tianyou was very curious about what Xu Qingyan was looking for him.
Seeing him say this, Xu Qingyan didn't shirk it, "What do you think of the sweet potato porridge just now?" ”
"Yes, soft and sweet, what, you want to partner with me again?" Wu Tianyou's words were full of expectation.
Xu Qingyan glanced at him, "No, this time it's to give your father political achievements, how about it, are you interested in listening to it?" ”
When Wu Tianyou heard this, he immediately became serious, "Let's hear it?" ”
"This sweet potato yields 10,000 catties per mu."
Xu Qingyan said the numbers lightly, but when she heard Wu Tianyou's ears, it was like thunder.
"What are you talking about, the yield per mu is 10,000 catties, this is true!" Wu Tianyou stood up in shock, "Do you know what you're talking about, the best fertile land now only yields three or four hundred catties per mu." ”
Xu Qingyan raised her eyebrows, she still knows the yield of farmland, this guy is not too squirming!
"This kind of thing, you think I dare to talk nonsense."
Wu Tianyou: ""
