Chapter 144 Ketchup and French Fries Go Better Together
Qu Tong did not disappoint and took it with a smile. However, is this really a potato?
“Isn’t this a cherry tomato?”
Xixi shook her head and explained carefully word by word.
"The ones below are small potatoes. Someone in the big potato farm already planted them, so I planted small potatoes. The ones above are small tomatoes. Just cut them and tie them together when they are seedlings. This is what Uncle Ke Jun taught me. However, only this one survived out of many."
Listening to Xixi's words, Qu Tong couldn't help but marvel at Ke Jun's intelligence and Xixi's hands-on ability.
It was indeed beyond her expectation that Ke Jun would think of grafting, and he didn't tell her about it probably because the survival rate was low and it wasn't cost-effective.
But with this cheating artifact of hers, I can definitely consider it in the future.
"Xixi is awesome, thank you Xixi." Qu Tong touched Xixi's head.
The little girl smiled happily after receiving the praise.
Others were happy too.
They were sincerely grateful to the young planet master for not only not expelling them but also giving them jobs.
They like their current life. They have different flavors of intermediate nutrient solution to drink every day and have extra money to spend on Star Network.
Occasionally, they even have energy plants to eat, which they had never dared to dream of before.
Working on the farm is not tiring as most of the work is done by robots. The leaders are also kind and do not exploit their employees.
This is truly the life they have always dreamed of.
Qu Tong listened to the residents under his jurisdiction chatting for a while, and asked everyone to cut the rose branches again.
When Xiang Bin and Li Kun came back, Qu Tong asked them to take their men to continue transplanting roses.
The day when flowers bloom all over Roy Star will not be far away.
Qu Tong himself went to the back mountain, took out a jujube seed from the space button, and input the wood-related ability.
Soon the milky white germ broke through the hard core and emerged, roots penetrated into the ground and sprouted tender green branches.
Grow, bloom, and bear fruit in just one minute.
Qingmu swept away and collected all the ripe fruits.
Qu Tong ate a few and lost his appetite. He used the computer to locate Xiang Bin and called him in.
After eating a few fruit cores, Qu Tong threw them on the ground, and then did the same to stimulate the growth of a few jujube trees.
After Xiang Bin passed through the isolation shield and entered the back mountain, he almost walked with his head raised, the shock in his heart was beyond words.
"Boss, did you grow these?"
Although he already had the answer in his heart, Xiang Bin still couldn't help but ask. It was really unbelievable.
No wonder it has to be covered with an isolation cover.
These apple trees, jujube trees, and lemon trees full of fruits are probably energy plants.
No! It must be the energy plant.
"Yes." Qu Tong nodded, handed a basket of large and crisp green dates to Xiang Bin, and instructed: "Bring it to everyone later to share, and collect the remaining fruit cores. I will plant them next time."
"Okay." Xiang Bin looked at the energy fruits in his hand, feeling like a huge pie had fallen on his head, and carefully put them into the space button.
Qu Tong took Xiang Bin inside and made arrangements as they walked.
"The fruits here can be gradually put on the shelves in the store when they are ripe, but for now, only you can come in alone. If you find it difficult to pick the fruits, you can use the store funds to buy a robot to help you."
Xiang Bin felt his boss's full trust in him and was deeply moved. He nodded solemnly in agreement.
Qu Tong brought Xiang Bin to a river. They stood by the river and looked down. They saw one or two small white flowers blooming among the green water plants, and small fish with transparent tails were swimming leisurely above.
Qu Tong suddenly thought of what gift to give Niannian. The potion might not be successful, so it was best to be prepared for both situations.
Xiang Bin also followed Qu Tong to look into the river. The water was clear, the grass was green, and the fish were small. He didn't understand why the boss brought him here.
Then Qu Tong asked, "I want to divert this stream outside to make it more convenient for use on the farm. Is it possible?"
Xiang Bin was about to say that this was easy, and he could just find a worker, but then he remembered that the boss said that no one else could enter here, so he changed his words: "Yes, but it will take some time."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Just talk to my brother about anything you need."
After making the arrangements, Qu Tong returned to his villa.
Yuan Hewen is still in the laboratory and has not come out.
Qu Tong was free anyway, so he asked Xiang Bin to bring in potatoes and prepare some snacks.
Qu Tong took out some large tomato seeds from the space, sprouted a few of them, and then opened the live broadcast room.
Today's title: "Blue Star Times Food Culture Series 3 - Ketchup and French Fries Go Better Together"
As soon as the show started, the number of viewers in the live broadcast room increased rapidly, even more exaggerated than before.
Before the live broadcast started, I saw that the gift above had already reached 200,000 star coins, ranking third in the popularity list for the current time period.
Faced with the enthusiasm of netizens, Qu Tong greeted them as usual.
"It's been a while since we last met. Today I'm going to make a very simple snack that many netizens should be able to make themselves."
As soon as I said hello, netizens started to post comments.
[It wasn’t long ago. I just saw him at the military league.]
[I can't. I haven't been able to successfully replicate any of the delicacies made by the princess.]
[How did my sister’s hands grow? She can hold a gun and cook delicious food. ]
[Sister Princess, why haven't you shown your face yet? We have all seen it, don't be shy. ]
[That’s right, although the host’s hands are already very beautiful, I don’t mind a little more benefits. ]
[Is there going to be new products in the anchor’s fruit and vegetable store? I’ve already asked my parents to wait. ]
[Thank you for the upstairs post, may good people live a peaceful life. ]
[Fuck! I was just kidding.]
[Do you think I believe it? A family of six has already squatted, ready to grab it at any time. ]
[You, Old Six, even brought out the family treasure. ]
After a reminder from enthusiastic netizens, many netizens called their families over, with one light computer watching the live broadcast while the other light computers kept an eye on the new arrivals at Mu'an Fruit and Vegetable Store.
The enthusiastic netizens are regretting their decision so much. The chances were already slim to begin with, and now the probability of grabbing energy fruits and vegetables has risen to the level of hell. It's all their fault for being too talkative.
Qu Tong peeled potatoes while explaining.
After whittling two, I saw a comment saying that I could ask a robot for help.
Qu Tong called Ah Dai over and asked him to peel the potatoes.
Ah Dai didn't even need a peeling knife. He just turned one hand into an iron skewer to pierce a potato, and stretched out the index finger of the other hand to turn it into a knife, and peeled the potato in a few strokes.
Qu Tong picked up the potatoes peeled by Ah Dai, which were very neat, and started cutting them with confidence.
"Cut the potatoes into thick slices, then into long strips. Try to cut them evenly to avoid some being cooked while frying."
"Then put the cut potato strips into a pot with cold water, add a small amount of table salt, and bring the water to a boil."
"Take out the potatoes when the water boils, put them in cold water to cool them down, drain the water after cooling down, add starch, and grab them with your hands so that all the potato strips are coated with starch."
"The most important step is to put it in the refrigerator for more than half an hour."
