The Bai family shop ended the day's business in a lively situation.

The rare gadgets from Nanyang in the shop have triggered half of the people in the capital to come and buy.

Soon the shop was half empty.

And half a month ago, Bai Sanzhuang's sea ship in the South Seas followed Cheng Mei's fleet to return smoothly, and on the night of the opening of the Bai family's shop in Beijing, Steward Yan and Hu Shuzi escorted the latest batch of goods into Beijing to fill the gap in the shop.

When Mrs. Bai saw Hu Shuzi, she asked Aunt Hu about her situation again and again.

Hu Shuzi arrived in Huaicheng and didn't have time to return to Shenshu Village, so he first came to the capital to deliver goods.

Old Mrs. Bai naturally felt regretful, so she wanted to give some good things in the capital to Aunt Hu when he left.

Accompanying Hu Shuzi to the capital were some young men from Shenshu Village, all of whom were guys who followed Bai Sanzhuang's ship to the South Seas.

When the Bai family met the people of Shenshu Village in the capital, they naturally felt extremely happy and cordial, so they set up a banquet in the shop to wash everyone's dust.

Xiao Fuyuan pulled Steward Yan to inquire about Cheng Mei's current situation.

Steward Yan said that Cheng Mei would enter Beijing soon, and handed Xiao Fuyuan a few boxes, saying that they were gifts from Cheng Mei to Xiao Fuyuan.

After Steward Yan delivered the box, he was dragged by the guys to eat and drink.

Xiao Fuyuan opened the box given to her by Cheng Mei in the shop.

One of the large boxes was a bunch of round stuff that rolled out when it was opened.

Small size, yellow color, Xiao Fuyuan didn't recognize what it was for a while.

"Little aunt, it can't be other varieties of sweet potatoes, right?" Da Lang picked one up, took it in his hand and looked left and right, and felt that in addition to the color of the skin, it looked a little similar to a small sweet potato.

"Could it be potatoes?" Xiao Fuyuan muttered.

"Potatoes? What's that? Saburo used his chef's instinct and asked, "Can I cook?" ”

Xiao Fuyuan nodded and said: "It is more suitable for cooking than sweet potatoes, you can stew meat, you can stir-fry alone, and you can also fry French fries." ”

Da Lang and San Lang's eyes lit up as they listened.

Da Lang thought about how much such a good thing would have to sell.

Saburo thought that such a good thing would be delicious to make a dish.

However, they had no doubt in the slightest that the little aunt knew so much, and in their hearts, it was too normal for the little aunt to understand this.

Xiao Fuyuan asked Da Lang and San Lang to run to the place where the guests were entertained with potatoes in their arms.

"Little Yuanbao, you're here. We brought you a box of gadgets, and asked your brother Du Nian to find it for you. Hu Shuzi smiled when he saw Xiao Fuyuan, he originally wanted to hug him and dip his blessings, thinking that Xiao Fuyuan had grown into a big girl, and it was not suitable to hug.

"Thank you, Brother Bolt." Xiao Fuyuan said with a smile.

Then, he pointed to the round potatoes in Da Lang and San Lang's arms and asked Steward Yan, "Are these potatoes?" ”

Steward Yan??

He didn't recognize it.

"Potatoes?"

Xiao Fuyuan nodded.

"We don't know what this is, last time I heard your third brother say that you like strange plants, Cheng Da saw that there were rare things on the island that he didn't know, and he pulled them out and brought them to you. It seems to be in other boxes as well. Steward Yan said.

"Little Yuanbao, this thing can be eaten as a meal. I saw the locals on the island roasting and eating it over a fire, and it was old and fragrant. Hu Shuzi gave Xiao Fuyuan a popular science.

Xiao Fuyuan understood in her heart that this was a potato, but Nanyang was not called a potato, and she didn't know what it was called.

It doesn't matter what it's called, as long as it's a potato.

Xiao Fuyuan Dada Dada took Da Lang Saburo out again, ran to the shop, and opened the other boxes.

She found that there were tomatoes and green smelly grass in it, and she smelled that it was coriander.

There was also a box of black particles that went straight to her nose, possibly pepper, she wasn't sure.

There are some other seasonings that I don't recognize.

Saburo is worthy of being a chef living in his body, pointing to those smelly leaves and grains and saying, I feel that this can remove the fishy and that can improve the taste.

"Sister, are you looking for a big brother?"

Bai Dazhuang was originally taking someone to stock the goods, but when he heard Honghua say that his sister was looking for him, he put down the work in his hand and rushed over.

Along with the eldest brother is the fourth brother.

Xiao Fuyuan saw that the eldest brother and the fourth brother were coming together, pointed to the box on the ground and said, "Big brother, fourth brother, look at what Aunt Cheng Mei brought me from Nanyang." ”

The brothers crouched down and took a closer look, and found that they were all plants and some seed grains.

Bai Dazhuang's excited eyes lit up.

"It's a potato."

Xiao Fuyuan pointed to the potatoes and said.

"Potatoes?"

Bai Dazhuang and Bai Panmei also didn't know what it was, but given that their younger sisters could find sweet potatoes, the thing called potatoes might be the same as sweet potatoes.

"You can stew and stir-fry, or you can cook and eat. Like sweet potatoes, they can be grown in the ground and can be used as food. Xiao Fuyuan said.

It's just too small.

"Sister, are you letting me try to breed?" Bai Dazhuang said.

Xiao Fuyuan nodded.

"That's great." Bai Panmei's focus is on being able to be food.

"What about these?"

Bai Dazhuang saw that there were a few cotton plants.

It is not that he has never seen cotton, on the contrary, Huaicheng also grows cotton, but the yield is very low, and the flowers are very small and not very white.

Therefore, most people in the Xia Kingdom still mainly wear linen, and cotton cloth can only be worn by high-ranking officials and nobles. Like the Bai family, even if life is better, cotton cloth is not easy to obtain, and the Zhen family wears a few horses tightly with Xiao Fuyuan and Mrs. Bai.

The cotton clothes of ordinary poor people in winter are mostly linen, stuffed with reed flowers.

The cotton plants in front of me have a large bowl mouth, white as snow, and extremely soft to the touch.

If such cotton can take root and sprout in the summer country, then the cotton cloth will not be worried.

Not to mention anything else, the shop of Qiu Niang Zhang Luo can make the textile industry of Xia Guo to a new level.

"These can be used as spices."

Xiao Fuyuan pointed to coriander, pepper, and fennel seeds.

Bai Dazhuang and Bai Panmei leaned over to smell it and were choked.

Can this thing be eaten?

But since my sister said yes, then it's okay.

Some Chinese herbal medicines are also very choking, and they can also cure diseases.

"It's all up to Big Brother." Xiao Fuyuan pointed to those plant spice seeds and said to Bai Dazhuang.

Bai Dazhuang's face was full of emotion, his sister knew that she liked to serve the crops, so she deliberately gave these to herself.

He will definitely live up to his sister's expectations and strive to nurture it.

"My sister is really a lucky star." Bai Panmei couldn't help but say.

In the long run, if these plants are successfully cultivated, they can not only benefit their own families, but also benefit the people.

The seasoning and spices are put aside first, and the potatoes are successfully cultivated, and they can become a double wall of food with sweet potatoes, and how many people have to be fed. And the cotton, if the eldest brother can improve the local cotton to be as big and white as the one in front of him, how many people will not have to be frozen in winter.

"These are all the credit of my sister, I want to write an excerpt to let the heavenly family know." Bai Panmei said.

"Yes, yes, my sister deserves it." Bai Dazhuang said.

"Big brother, where are you going to grow these crops?" Xiao Fuyuan asked Bai Dazhuang.

Bai Dazhuang pondered, it will definitely not work in his own yard, it will not be good to be found in the future, and the yard will not be enough to be used.

He plans to cultivate in the land on the outskirts of Beijing, and the third brother has already bought a hundred acres of land in the suburbs of Beijing.

Bai Panmei thought for a while and said, "Big brother, do you want to go to Si Nong?" ”
