Chi Yu drunkenly found herself transmigrated into a cannon-fodder character in a rural farming novel that emphasized hardship and survival. In the original story, the main character was accused of ...
"good!"
After saying that, he reached out and took it, then followed Chi Yu into the kitchen with Shen Kai.
Originally, Chi Yu wasn't supposed to cook at home today because it was Chi Qing's wedding; she could just go over and eat with Qin Mu and the others.
However, considering Qin Mu's special circumstances, he stayed home to cook.
She didn't make anything too complicated; the main dish was sweet potato rice, the side dish was hot and sour shredded potatoes, and steamed sausage.
The soup was spinach and egg soup.
Qin Mu looked at the food on the kitchen table and glanced at Chi Yu with some surprise.
Didn't she say there weren't many things?
Why did you eat it once last night, and now you're eating it again?
Chi Yu was almost out of supplies, but she didn't explain. She just said, "Amu, you and Chen Kai eat first, then try this dish."
Qin Mu had eaten roasted sweet potatoes last night, so he knew what they tasted like.
Hearing Chi Yu's words, he nodded and sat down. Then he picked up his rice bowl and saw that rice made up only 30% of it, while sweet potatoes made up 70%.
He first scooped up a mouthful of rice, then picked up a piece of shredded potato with his chopsticks.
The sweet potatoes were probably rinsed and then steamed with the rice, so the texture was completely different from the ones that were grilled over charcoal yesterday.
But he knew that roasted sweet potatoes would shrink, and for ordinary people who couldn't even get enough to eat in this world, steaming or boiling them would be more cost-effective.
Steaming fish like pond fish with rice can save a lot of rice per meal.
As for potatoes, we had them baked yesterday, so they can be a staple food.
It's fragrant and sticky, but in terms of taste, it can't compare to the sour and crisp texture of dishes made this way.
If he had a choice, he would prefer the taste of the food when it was cooked, as it was very appetizing.
None of the three spoke. After finishing their meal, Qin Mu put down his chopsticks and looked at Chi Yu with anticipation.
"Little Fish, I'm waiting for your potatoes and sweet potatoes."
He ate three full bowls of rice during that meal, as did Ah Kai.
Based on the size of the sweet potatoes yesterday, he and Akai probably each ate two large sweet potatoes, but used less than a handful of rice.
However, the feeling of fullness was no different from eating three bowls of rice, at least that's how he felt!
So, at this moment, he was even more excited about this thing than he was last night.
After all, it doesn't taste bad, and I've also heard that the yield per acre is several times that of rice.
He believed that with these two kinds of grains, barring any unforeseen circumstances, the people of Da Chu Kingdom would not starve to death as long as they worked hard!
Shen Kai and Qin Mu had a great understanding; he even got some of the roasted sweet potatoes and potatoes last night.
Therefore, after he had eaten and drunk his fill, he nodded vigorously after Qin Mu finished speaking.
Even more, he directly suggested, "Sister-in-law, when you have a lot of these things and want to sell them, you can give them to me."
Trust me, you definitely won't be disappointed!
When the time comes, Lord Fang will send this high-yield crop back to the capital at full speed to claim credit, and he can then sell it to county governments in various places.
Of course, he wouldn't miss out on wealthy households in various places, such as landlords.
He had already figured out how to sell it.
For example, a large sweet potato might sell for one ounce, while a small one might sell for one hundred coins.
As for potatoes, Chi Yu said they were grown by cutting sprouts.
He can wait until all of them have sprouted and then sell them by the sprout pieces.
Now that Chi Yu is about to become his sister-in-law, he naturally has to think more about her!
Such good things are too rare now, otherwise he would definitely try to grow more of them.
I don't know where my sister-in-law planted it; the land in this yard is empty.
In the kang room, vegetables were originally grown.
