Chapter 487 She is here, she is here again
“Delicious, so fresh and sweet!”
Jiang Wenhao had a satisfied look on his face. After praising the food, he lowered his head and started to eat it. He had never eaten anything so delicious before.
Lin Mo also looked satisfied, it was delicious.
It is just right to eat it at this time, very tender and sweet.
Lin Molue glanced at Jiang Wenhao who was working hard on his homework.
It seems that the corn has conquered the stomach of the Minister of Agriculture.
Jiang Wenhao ate very quickly.
My purpose was to eat one more, but when I turned around, I was stunned.
That’s all.
It was clearly a big pot, but now there is only an empty pot and a pile of eaten corn cobs next to it.
Jiang Wenhao immediately looked at Lin Mo eagerly:
"Madam, I haven't eaten enough yet. Can you pick some more to cook?"
Seeing that she ignored him, he quickly said:
"I'll pay for it, so you won't suffer any loss, okay?"
This food is called corn. It was his first time eating it and it was so delicious.
He was skeptical at first, wondering if it was edible.
When it was cooked, he even refused it hypocritically.
I didn't eat it until I saw that they were fine after eating it.
Now, he regretted being so hypocritical.
Woohoo, I was being pretentious and only ate one pack. What a loss.
Also, this slap in the face really hurts, but this corn is edible and tastes very good.
Lin Mo shook her head, "That won't do, just try it for a new taste.
This is tender corn. It’s not cost-effective to eat it now. We need to keep it for a few more days.
When the corn is old, dried, and ground into powder, the powder from a corn cob this big, mixed with some wild vegetables, is enough to feed a family of four.
So eating young corn is a bit of a luxury. It’s okay to eat it occasionally. If they keep eating it like this, there won’t be enough corn in the cornfield for them to eat.
Although she planted a lot, there were also many people, and they couldn't withstand such a disaster.
Jiang Wenhao regretted not being able to eat the second one, but then he became excited. This thing tasted good and seemed to be highly productive. If it could be promoted, wouldn't people no longer have to go hungry?
Thinking of this, he immediately excitedly told Lin Mo that he wanted to promote corn planting throughout Daye.
He was a little confused when he found that Lin Mo didn't even look at him.
"Madam, am I wrong?"
Otherwise, why would she look like that?
The look in her eyes made him feel like an idiot.
"No!" Lin Mo smirked, "I think Lord Jiang, you are exceptionally great and admirable."
Seeing him smile brightly, Lin Mo's face darkened:
"But what does that have to do with me?"
Jiang Wenhao looked stunned.
"Haha, you said a few nice words and you want me to promote this corn for free and do good things for you to enhance your reputation. Lord Jiang, do you think I'm being taken advantage of?"
Jiang Wenhao was a little uncomfortable. "I can pay for it. I won't take advantage of you."
"How much did you pay for it?"
Jiang Wenhao cautiously extended a finger, "One hundred taels."
Lin Mo smiled and said, one hundred taels.
She shook her head. "For your kindness, I'll give you enough seeds for one hundred acres of land for one hundred taels. Any more and there's nothing left."
Jiang Wenhao was stunned. Is the gap so big?
One hundred taels of seeds can only be used to plant one hundred acres of land?
Jiang Wenhao didn't give up, "Can you give me more?
After all, this is a good deed that will benefit future generations. The people will remember your kindness in the future. After all, it was you who discovered this new species and promoted it."
"Why would I seek that false reputation?" Lin Mo raised an eyebrow.
"Do you think the Xu family isn't causing enough trouble?
Lord Jiang, it’s because of you that I give you so much.
Let me tell you, if it were someone else, it would already be good enough if I could give him seeds for ten acres of land for a hundred taels of silver.
If you plant a hundred acres of land once, you will have plenty of seeds. You can promote it however you want when the time comes, it will just take a little longer.
Lord Jiang can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, what do you think? "
Jiang Wenhao, “…”
After a while, he finally sighed and said, "I was greedy, my lady is right.
One hundred taels of seeds is one hundred taels, and one hundred mu of land is quite large."
If we use one hundred acres of land to grow corn, I'm afraid we won't be able to find anyone willing to plant it.
After all, no one has grown this thing in other places in Daye, and most people don’t dare to try it easily, and it takes time for the people to accept it.
So, let's take it slow.
Lin Mo chuckled, "Master Jiang, let me continue from what I said before. I still have something to say.
I sold these seeds to you at a low price, and I didn't take advantage of you, so shouldn't you compensate me in other ways?"
Xu Pinggui, who was slowly chewing a corn cob, had an unfathomable look on his face.
Here she comes, the deceitful her comes again.
The young lady who likes to cheat people is about to start cheating again.
Xu Pinggui sat down and prepared to watch the show.
Jiang Wenhao was stunned. He immediately sat up straight and nodded seriously.
"You're right. I can't take advantage of you. Tell me, what do you want? As long as I have it, I will definitely give it to you."
Lin Mo smiled, "Master Jiang is serious, don't worry, I won't make excessive demands.
By the way, I must have collected a lot of seeds along the way.
I just want to ask if there are any new and unusual seeds that are cold-resistant and frost-resistant. Please buy me some."
When Jiang Wenhao heard this, he immediately stood up:
“What’s so difficult about this?
Come on, I'll take you to have a look. If you like anything, you can take some away. I don't want your money at all."
After saying that, he led Lin Mo forward in a swift and decisive manner.
Jiang Wenhao's carriage stopped not far from the cornfield.
When they arrived, the servant who had run away was standing by the carriage with an anxious look on his face.
When he saw a large group of people following Jiang Wenhao, he immediately became nervous:
“We are not thieves!
Hurry up, let my master go."
Then he looked at Jiang Wenhao nervously, "Sir, if you don't come back, I will rush to Mo City and ask the city lord to rescue you."
"It's okay." Jiang Wenhao shook his head:
"Don't make a fuss."
Then he asked him to move all kinds of seeds from the carriage.
When he arranged the various seeds he had collected in front of Lin Mo, his face was filled with smiles:
"Madam, what kind of seeds do you want?
If you don’t understand something, I can introduce it to you.”
Lin Mo nodded, "Let me take a look first."
"Look, take your time, there's no rush." Jiang Wenhao looked attentive.
The two servants behind him couldn't help but lower their heads and talk:
"Is this still the adult we know? Doesn't he treasure these seeds the most? Normally, we can't even touch them, so why is he taking them out now? It's fine if he can pick and choose, but why does he act like he's afraid that he won't be satisfied?"
"You don't understand. My Lord is taking advantage of others and has no choice but to make concessions."
"Tell me quickly, what happened when I was away?"
…
"cough!"
Jiang Wenhao looked at his two servants, coughed lightly, and then gave them a warning look.
After they stopped talking nonsense, he looked at Lin Mo in front of him.
Seeing her looking at a pile of potatoes, Jiang Wenhao immediately stepped forward:
"This is a potato. I bought it from a Western ship in exchange for a piece of silver.
It is said that Westerners all eat this thing.
I thought it was novel, so I exchanged some for it. I plan to find a piece of land to try growing it after returning to the capital."
Lin Mo said nothing. She looked at the round but slightly wrinkled potatoes in front of her and stretched out her hand.
"Then I want some potato seeds, is that okay?"
For some reason, she felt that this was called a potato field, and that planting it would not disappoint her.
Jiang Wenhao nodded quickly, "Of course, if you want, I can give you two-thirds.
Those Westerners said that potatoes are easy to grow and cold-resistant, which just meets your requirements.
It is also easy to plant. As long as the potatoes sprout, cut them into pieces, keep the sprouts, and then plant the whole piece in the ground.
Also, once the potatoes sprout, they can no longer be eaten; they are poisonous."
Jiang Wenhao let out a sigh after telling everything he knew in one breath.
Well, he didn't feel guilty now.
"Master Jiang, you are such a good person." Lin Mo smiled.
Then Xu Pinggui came up and moved the potatoes.
Is it cold-resistant?
When the greenhouse is built, can we try planting potatoes?
In this case, two-thirds is not enough.
Thinking of this, Lin Mo looked at him with a smile on her face, "Master Jiang, when you take them back, do you plant them yourself and record their growth?"
Jiang Wenhao nodded.
But before he could say anything, Lin Mo spoke first.
"You have so many seeds here, can you plant them all?"
"It's definitely impossible to plant them all at once." Jiang Wenhao said seriously:
"Also, the planting of these seeds is seasonal. They have to be planted according to the season, and the time will be staggered, so there is no need to worry about being too busy."
Lin Mo smiled, with the corners of her mouth curved:
"Master Jiang, how about giving me all these potatoes?
After I succeed in growing the potatoes, I will give you the seeds and a record of my potato planting.
Also, as compensation, you can ask Lao Song for any details about my corn planting method. What do you think? "
Jiang Wenhao was delighted. "Take it all, take it all, I'll give it to you!"
If he refused such an advantageous opportunity, he would be extremely stupid.
After the other party took away the potatoes, Jiang Wenhao licked his face:
"Well, can you take me in until the corn is ripe?"
