Chapter 1315 Strawberries and Potatoes
Qiao Xuan originally wanted to promote it, so the fact that it became a forced move was just what she wanted.
Moreover, although the person who came was only a steward of moderate importance, these mansions all had to maintain their reputation and would not take her things for free, so the "rewards" she gave were quite a lot.
For example, the second prince's mansion gave him two purses, each containing a high-quality green jade pendant and a thumb-sized pearl.
For example, the Third Prince's residence gave him two cans of tea, which were the finest West Lake Longjing tea, in silver tea cans. The cylindrical tea cans had lids, and the body of the cans was carved with fine landscapes, figures, and turquoise patterns.
Qiao Xuan gave them 100 strawberry seedlings each, which was very fair and impartial.
If you think of this as a business transaction, it's quite a good deal!
The customer is God, so don't expect God to be nice to you. After all, it's just a matter of payment.
After these two families started this, many other families sent their stewards to inquire.
Since both of these companies have given generous rewards, it would be even more difficult for other companies to refuse.
Even the most stingy person would have a silver note worth fifty taels in his pocket.
From this item alone, Qiao Xuan received benefits worth tens of thousands of silver coins.
She had collected most of the benefits, so if someone asked again, she would not be so happy to give.
No matter how many strawberry seedlings there are, we have to wait for them to divide, and division takes time!
If those people are willing to wait, Qiao Xuan doesn't mind making some extra money, but she doesn't care about those who are unwilling to wait.
Jinquanlou still supplies strawberries as usual every day. Thanks to these sweet and sour, bright red and attractive strawberries, Jinquanlou's business has soared significantly.
When I came to the garden, I looked at the bright red strawberries dotted among the green branches and leaves. They were plump, delicate, bright red, and very attractive and lovely.
Such a lovely fruit will naturally be loved by ladies, young ladies and children!
These large pieces are all money.
There were even vendors who ran orchards who came to the door and politely expressed their desire to pay a large sum of money to buy a few acres of seedlings.
Qiao Xuan did not agree at that time, but she also said that she would consider it. If there were any extra seedlings next year, she would not mind selling them to others.
The reproductive capacity of strawberries is quite strong, especially those that have been optimized and mutated by her ability. The stronger the growth capacity, the stronger it is. As long as it is well taken care of through the winter, it can continue to grow by dividing.
In a few years, it will become more common.
The price would not be as outrageously high as it is today, but the total amount would still be relatively small. If you planted a large amount, you would still make a lot of money.
Qiao Xuan asked Lixia and Liqiu to pick two baskets of strawberries, one for their own consumption and one for Zhao Shu. She went to dig potatoes herself.
This is another surprise.
She dug up a plant, and nineteen of them, large and small, grew underneath it. Seven of them were as big as a fist, and three were only slightly bigger than copper coins. The others were the size of duck eggs.
She dug up another one, and now she had a large basket full of them, enough to last for several days.
This is the result of her supernatural power and Songshi's previous careful care, but this variety has been improved and optimized through supernatural powers. Even if it is planted in ordinary land, it is no problem to produce seven or eight, or eleven or twelve duck egg-sized fruits.
The harvested fruits are much more productive than those from a corn plant, taro, peanuts, beans, etc.!
If it is a famine, it can really save lives.
