Chapter 108: Various Vegetable Seeds
"Offering treasures?" Pei Qing's eyes were as hot as fire, and he looked out, but he saw that there was snow outside, and there were no carriages and horses carrying any goods, "You don't even have a carriage or horse carrying treasures, what treasures do you have?" ”
"You are Brother Pei Qing!" This person's face turned slightly ruddy, and drops of melted water fell from his body, "General Li Yi made a special mention of you, saying that the 'instant noodles' you taught to make are very useful, and I also express my gratitude to the little shopkeeper Li Ce!" ”
"Oh? Are instant noodles useful? Li Ce smiled, "You get up, I really want to know what kind of role instant noodles play!" ”
"Yes!" This person hurriedly got up, "Back to the little shopkeeper, because instant noodles are very convenient to eat, it used to take more than an hour to bury the pot to make rice, but now it only takes a stick of incense to complete!" The preparation time before the battle will be greatly reduced! ”
"That's it!" Li Ce nodded with satisfaction, "It seems that General Li Yi has put this kind of quick food in a good place!" Yes, using General Li Yi to go south is really a very wise choice! What did General Li Yi ask you to send back? ”
"By the way, that's the case, General Li Yi knows that the shopkeeper makes a living by opening a shop, and he also needs all kinds of strange dishes, so every time the general captures a city, he asks the soldiers to search for seeds, and asks me to send back the seeds that I searched for!"
"Seeds?" Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, showing a satisfied smile, "Indeed, there are not many dishes in Datang now, if I can expand the dishes, it will also be a huge help to me!" What are the seeds you brought back this time? ”
"That's right, because among the cities captured this time, there is a Hu Shang among them, and all the seeds brought back are also very strange!" The man hurriedly took out a large bag from his arms, "among which are Chaotian peppers, wolf peaches, potatoes, pumpkins, ......"
"So much?" Pei Qing took a deep breath, his face full of surprise, "Little master, have you heard of these things?" So there are so many things in the South? Can you really eat these things? ”
"Of course you can!" Li Ce smiled indifferently, "The so-called wolf peach is actually a tomato!" ”
"Wolf Peach? Tomato? What? Little master, what wolf peach, why is the wolf peach a tomato? Are tomatoes a wolf peach? It's called a wolf peach, is it related to wolves? Isn't it as ferocious as a wolf? Pei Qing looked nervous, his eyes staring at the package, as if he was afraid of something.
"It's just a vegetable, Brother Qing'er, don't be nervous!" Li Ce laughed heartily a few times, "It's like a small red lantern hanging on a branch!" Am I right? ”
"Yes, the little shopkeeper is exactly what the Hu merchant said!" The man's eyes were stunned, "It's just that the Hu man said that this thing can only be viewed, the color is bright and abnormal, and it is likely to be poisonous!" ”
Hearing this, Li Ce shook his head with a smile.
Tomatoes were first called wolf peaches, because the color was too bright, lest they be poisonous, so they were only used for ornamentation, and no one dared to eat them!
It wasn't until the seventeenth century that a painter who was deeply attracted by the infrared watch couldn't help but take a bite!
Since then, the wolf peach has been widely spread!
The sweet and sour taste makes it quickly become a delicious dish on the table!
However, that was also ten centuries later, and now it is the ninth year of Wude, 626 AD!
Discover tomatoes now, and that's bound to advance the wave of tomatoes!
Perhaps history will inevitably be rewritten in the future!
What a painter who is not afraid of death, what a place else!
In the sacred territory of China, in the past 600 years, tomatoes have become a delicacy on the table!
There are no painters who are not afraid of death, and all people in this territory are brave people who dare to try!
Moreover, in this bulging bag, there are even potatoes!
Potatoes have a huge yield, and what yield per mu is two or three thousand catties, that's not a thing!
If potatoes are introduced to His Majesty, then Datang will no longer worry about food from now on!
And there are no seeds for potatoes, a potato, as long as the body sprouts, the germination place is cut off, put into the soil, less than three or five days, more than ten days, a seedling will break out of the soil!
Of course, there are certain risks associated with eating potatoes!
Because sprouted potatoes have toxins, it is common for people to eat them for bloating, stomach pain, vomiting and diarrhea!
If you don't tell me about it, if someone eats sprouted potatoes by mistake in the future, it will inevitably lead to a fire!
However, he can't give Li Shimin a treasure for no reason!
If you can't get anything from him, even if potatoes can make the country prosperous, you have to make a lot of money like pork, and then you can make a lot of money!
In the future, although some places will use potatoes as a staple food, there is no fixed way to eat potatoes!
Steamed and smashed into a puree, you can make mashed potatoes, slice them for frying, and boiling......
Countless ways can become a popular snack!
"Little shopkeeper, please be sure to accept it, if you don't accept it, General Li Yi will break my body into ten thousand pieces!"
"Well, since that's the case, then I'd better be respectful!" Li Ce suppressed the excitement in his heart, and a flat smile appeared on his face, "Brother Qing'er, the guests are coming from afar, we should pay tribute to the friendship of the landlord, come, and cook a delicious meal for the guests!" ”
"Little shopkeeper, I still need to rush back immediately!" The man put down the package, quickly got up, and prepared to walk outside the store.
"It's a long way to go, so why should you care about this moment? And it's snowing outside, so why don't you eat enough and dress warmly before heading on the road? Li Ce's eyes narrowed slightly, "Since you are General Li Yi's subordinate, and I have a deep friendship with General Li Yi, and you have sent something for me, how can I treat you badly?" ”
"That's right, this big brother, you have to have a full meal here!" Pei Qing looked like a smile, stretched out his hand and wrapped the package on the ground in his arms, treating it as a treasure, "Don't worry, we will be able to finish cooking soon, by the way, you haven't seen these people for a long time, right?" They used to be General Li Yi's subordinates! ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw seventeen people walking out of the back hall like a draft!
Seeing these guys, this person suddenly raised his eyebrows, as if he had seen something beautiful!
He ...... How did they end up here? This person was shocked, his face was full of horror, "These are all the successors of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen!" Their skills have reached the level of Yanyun's eighteen horsemen! Entering the Yanyun Eighteen Rides is only a matter of timing! They...... Why are you here? ”
"You don't seem to know yet?" The corners of Pei Qing's mouth curled slightly, and he looked proud, "They are all General Li Yi who stayed here to help my little master!" Listen to your words, they must be very good at reaching out? You can talk more about this! ”
However, at this moment, the seventeen strong men looked at them as if they were nothing, and they looked arrogant.
