Chapter 30 Potatoes are a good thing


0

After settling the mother and son, Jiang Xueying took Qiao to the mountain where she planted potatoes.

Qiao followed Jiang Xueying and was shocked to see the densely packed potato vines growing at the foot of the mountain. She had never thought that Jiang Xueying had planted so many, and that they grew very fast, much faster than the sweet potatoes they had here.

Jiang Xueying saw her shock and couldn't help but smile.

"I can't help it. The demand is too great, so I have to plant more. I can't take care of so many by myself. I'll have to trouble you in the future."

Mrs. Qiao smiled and nodded. She didn’t know how to manage potatoes either, so she would have to learn more from Jiang Xueying in the future.

After the two of them looked at most of the potatoes, Jiang Xueying introduced to her how to manage potatoes.

"When you are taking care of these potato seedlings, remember to cut off any diseased, yellow or dead leaves, otherwise it will affect the healthy leaves next to them..."

Qiao nodded, wrote down everything Jiang Xueying said, and asked questions when she didn't understand something.

Seeing her serious look, Jiang Xueying nodded with satisfaction, and then continued to talk about precautions.

"Also, when you water, don't water if the plants feel very moist when touched. I believe you should have experience in this regard... I forgot to mention that if the potato seedlings bloom, you must cut off the flowers to concentrate the nutrients in the roots so that they can grow more."

Qiao listened to the various methods Jiang Xueying mentioned and kept everything she said in her mind, fearing that she would not be able to do it in the future.

"Okay, that's about it. If you have any questions later, you can ask me. The land here is very suitable for potatoes. As long as we take good care of it, the yield should not be a problem."

"Okay, don't worry, I will take good care of it."

Jiang Xueying smiled and said nothing more.

In the following period of time, although Jiang Xueying did not pay special attention to Qiao, she could tell that she was indeed taking good care of the potato seedlings by occasionally checking the growth of the potato seedlings.

Seeing this, Jiang Xueying was completely relieved and believed that it would not be long before she could harvest a batch of good potatoes.

At the same time, Jiang Xueying's shop business became more and more prosperous. Many people came from other places to eat the French fries after hearing about them. There were long queues every day, and new and old customers came in an endless stream.

Looking at the popular store, Jiang Xueying nodded with satisfaction. Everything was as she expected. If things continued at this rate, it wouldn't be long before she would be making a fortune.

As business was booming, naturally many people saw this business opportunity and subsequently approached Jiang Xueying to seek cooperation.

"Boss, someone is looking for you."

When the clerk said this, Jiang Xueying was looking at the bill from a few days ago. She had no choice but to put down the account book in her hand and went to the lobby.

Jiang Xueying nodded with satisfaction after seeing the visitor's attire. It seemed that this man must be a wealthy man, but she still greeted him without showing any expression.

"I guess this should be Boss Jiang, right?"

The man who came was also a shrewd man who had been wandering the world for many years. His eyes narrowed into slits when he saw Jiang Xueying.

After a round of greetings, the visitor explained his purpose.

"That's right, Boss Jiang. We heard about your store a long time ago. I have to say that it was you, Boss Jiang, who came up with this idea."

Jiang Xueying knew that this person was flattering her, but it was inevitable in business, so she just smiled.

"No, no, it's just my humble opinion."

The man waved his hand and said politely.

"Boss Zhou is being modest. We know that your store is doing a booming business. Have you ever thought about developing it further?"

Jiang Xueying raised her eyebrows and said nothing.

The visitor also smiled mysteriously and continued.

"I'm the owner of Fulin Restaurant, you can just call me Xiao Yao."

"It turned out to be Boss Yao. I wonder what Boss Yao meant by what he just said?"

Jiang Xueying was also polite for a while, and then went straight to the point. She never liked to drag things out.

"Although business is booming now, once the goods are controlled in the market, it will go back to the past. So what we want is to push your fries to our restaurant, so that you will have a steady stream of business, right?"

Jiang Xueying raised her eyebrows. She didn't expect that Boss Yao was quite business-savvy. She then agreed, and the two parties signed the contract quickly.

After some days, the potatoes planted by Jiang Xueying have grown lush and leafy, and the growth is even more gratifying, all thanks to Qiao's help.

Jiang Xueying was very satisfied and grateful to Qiao. She trusted her even more and let her take charge of the matter without any worries.

Soon, it was time to harvest potatoes. The seedlings pulled out of the ground had many large, orange-yellow potatoes growing in lumps on their roots.

It looks very happy, this potato harvest is definitely a bumper one.

Mrs. Qiao looked very happy. It was the first time she had seen a plant that could bear fruit.

In the past, the crops grown in the fields produced very little. Not only did they have to be carefully cared for, but they also depended on the weather. If there was not enough rain or the sun was not good, the yield would be pitifully small.

But potatoes are so easy to grow. I just need to take good care of them, and the harvest is dozens of times that of other crops. This is much better than growing other crops.

"Mrs. Jiang, potatoes are really good. I never thought they could produce so many fruits. You have good vision. If we had known earlier, we would have planted more."

These potatoes are just the beginning. Many people are just waiting and watching, and will not plant them on a large scale for consumption. Therefore, large-scale planting may not necessarily lead to a sell-out. If you want to get rich from potatoes, you still have a tough battle to fight.

"Mrs. Qiao, you are too kind. I discovered this food by accident. It is more advantageous than many of the crops we have now. Potatoes are really good. Not only can they be used as raw materials for many ingredients, but they are also easy to preserve and can be eaten by frying, stir-frying or boiling."

"I believe in your vision, but what do you plan to do with these potatoes? You can sell them at the market for some silver."

Qiao was happy in her heart and felt that now that she was following Jiang Xueying, her life would definitely get better and better in the future.

Jiang Xueying, who had already made up her mind, smiled slightly and picked up a big potato to look at it carefully.

"Sister Qiao, I plan to use these potatoes to make potato chips, which I can sell at the market. Besides, my shop has been open for a long time and has gained some reputation. I can take this opportunity to increase sales. The restaurants I cooperate with also have great demand. These potatoes are not enough, so you can learn from me and have more skills in the future."
