Wang Yujie smiled: "Hehe." With such imbecile words, you can actually say it, Lord Wu. What a hillbilly. ”

Ahh How dare you call us hillbillies.

Wu Zhongqiang held back the anger in his heart and said loudly: "Okay, then please let me see what sweet potatoes are, if you can't take them out, don't blame the official for being mad." ”

Wang Yujie shrugged and shouted outside the hall: "Little wolf, let people bring in sweet potatoes." ”

"Okay. ”

The little wolf said. took two wolf friends and walked into the hall with two baskets of sweet potatoes.

Suddenly, a unique fragrance of sweet potatoes wafted throughout the Jinluan Palace.

That's right, these sweet potatoes are steamed. Wang Yujie selects the best sweet potatoes.

At this time, the sweet potatoes are still steaming, and the aroma makes people salivate when they smell it.

"Ahh ”

"Yes, it smells so good, it makes my stomach rumble when I smell it. ”

Wang Yujie ignored the civil and military officials. He walked to the edge of the basket, picked up a sweet potato, began to peel it, and ate it.

After eating two bites, he said contentedly: "Your Majesty, it's almost noon." Why don't you come down and taste this sweet potato together?"

Wang Yujie knows that every new thing appears. As an emperor, it is impossible to be the first to eat first, so he will eat first.

The emperor nodded and instructed Gonggong Liu to take one up. Then, following Wang Yujie's example, he peeled off the skin and took a small bite.

Suddenly, the unique aroma of sweet potatoes filled his entire mouth. The sweet and fragrant taste of sweet potatoes made him want to stop it.

Although sweet potatoes are not very delicious, this is not the first time the emperor has eaten them!

The emperor ate this sweet potato for the first time and instantly fell in love with the taste. Then, I tasted it one bite at a time.

The civil and military officials are so uncomfortable! Saliva is pouring out.

Just smell the fragrance, and then open your eyes and watch people eat a delicacy that they have never eaten before, do you want to be so tormenting?

The most hateful thing is that even the three wolf friends who brought in the sweet potato also took a sweet potato and ate it there with relish.

Seduce!

The emperor finished eating a piece, and he still wanted to eat it.

So, he instructed: "Father-in-law Liu, go down and bring me another sweet potato." ”

However, Wang Yujie spoke: "Your Majesty, this is not good. The one just now was given to the emperor by Weichen to eat, but if the emperor wants to eat it again, he will have to give money. ”

After speaking, Wang Yujie also winked at the emperor.

The emperor looked at the hundreds of military officials in the hall who were drooling, and immediately understood what Wang Yijie meant.

This guy is a goblin, it seems that he wants to pit the money of civil and military officials!

So he said, "Okay, then you say, how much is your sweet potato?"

Wang Yujie said: "It's not expensive, it's not expensive, I'm not expensive at all." This thing was originally going to be sold for ten taels and eight taels of silver, but if you are so familiar with the emperor, then sell you two taels of silver. ”

Your sister, two taels of silver is not expensive? Why don't you grab it?

I think that Wang Yujie's salary as a fast catcher was two taels of silver per month, that is to say, he could buy a sweet potato when he caught blocks for a month.

Is this called expensive?

However, the emperor said very cooperatively:

"That's okay, Gonggong Liu gave him 10 taels of silver, bought 5 sticks, and sent two to the queen. ”

Gonggong Liu hurriedly responded. Then walk down and pull out the money to buy sweet potatoes.

When giving sweet potatoes. Wang Yujie secretly gave one more, and whispered to Gonggong Liu that it was specially given to him.

Gonggong Liu glanced at Wang Yujie gratefully.

There's no way, this thing looks really gluttonous, and it's not easy for him to pay for it. Now that Wang Yujie gave it to him, it is undoubtedly the happiest for him.

"Delicious, delicious. ”

The emperor nodded his head as he ate. Father-in-law Liu also praised him with a smile on his face, and he was so happy.

Finally, the hundred officials couldn't stand it, and an official said to Wang Yujie:

"Wang Yujie, can we buy your sweet potato?"

The emperor had to spend money to eat, and they would have to buy it if they wanted to.

Wang Yujie is happy, what he is waiting for is your words:

"Of course, anyone can buy it if they give money. Until sold out. ”

So, the officials took out the money one after another, and one of them bought a sweet potato and ate it there.

"Mmmm, yes, yes, it's delicious. ”

Baiguan couldn't help but nodded in praise, no way, although sweet potatoes are not a rare thing, but the first time people eat sweet potatoes, few people will hate his taste.

And those who didn't buy it are remorseful there, just because they hesitated just now, and then, the sweet potatoes were sold out, do you say angry people are not angry?

Many officials who don't deal with Wang Yujie want to say that it is not delicious, but they know in their hearts that what the emperor cares about is not the taste of this thing, but the amount of this thing.

If this thing is really as Wang Yujie said, it can produce 20 stones per mu.

My God, the territory of the Great Yan Dynasty has increased four or five times in an instant, and there are trees?

The main thing is that the famine caused by the great drought in the west can really be solved. From now on, there will be no more famine in Dayan.

The emperor ate three sweet potatoes, and to be honest, he was already full.

However, Wang Yujie spoke again: "Your Majesty, what we ate just now was the fruit of sweet potatoes. I won't say if it's beautiful or not. But the most important thing is that in addition to the fruit, the leaves of this sweet potato are also edible. Your Majesty, please wait. ”

Then, Wang Yujie shouted outside the Jinluan Palace:

"Chef Wolf, it's your turn. ”

Then, the civil and military officials saw that a sturdy man, dressed in clean white clothes, wearing a white cloth hat on his head, and holding a food basket in his hand, was sent directly to Wang Yujie.

Wang Yujie asked Gonggong Liu to come down and sent a plate of sweet potato leaves that had been fried to the emperor.

"Well, it looks good. Liu Gonggong praised one. I picked up the chopsticks and put them in my mouth.

Suddenly, Grandpa Liu's eyes lit up.

"It's delicious, it's so delicious, Your Majesty, the old slave has never eaten such a delicious thing. ”

Gonggong Liu did not speak for Wang Yujie because he had a good impression of him.

This is something fried by Chef Wolf, which is stuffed with MSG, plus his exquisite craftsmanship, for a person who has never been exposed to MSG, can it be said that it is not delicious?

When the emperor heard what Gonggong Liu said, he also picked up his chopsticks and took a bite.

Suddenly, both eyes lit up. I couldn't help but eat a few bites in a row. Then I felt a little salty, so I opened a sweet potato and ate it slowly.

"It's delicious, it's delicious, it's delicious. ”

The emperor was full of praise for eating. Then he stood up and asked Wang Yujie:

"Wang Aiqing, is this the seedling of sweet potato? It's delicious, I feel better than any dish I've ever tasted." ”

Wang Yujie said: "It's good if the emperor likes it." ”

The emperor asked again: "Wang Aiqing, do you say that this sweet potato can really yield 20 stones per mu?"

"Not true. Wang Yujie said.

What's wrong?

The Emperor was disappointed. Yes, such a delicious thing and still so productive? How can there be such a beautiful thing?

However, Wang Yujie then said: "The correct statement should be more than 20 stones, if it is a better land, it is no problem to plant up to 35 stones." Moreover, this is only the yield of sweet potatoes and does not include sweet potato seedlings. ”

"Huh?"

The emperor was stunned.

All the officials were also stunned.

What Wang Yujie said was too shocking.
