This was a great bargain for Xiao Yu. Even if the potatoes were half rotten, he could still recycle them, letting them take root and sprout, and grow into potato seedlings again.
He even tried it in front of Zhou Yanzhi. After pulling out the grown potatoes, the guy said with regret, "It's a pity that they are not tomatoes or cucumbers, otherwise we could eat them raw."
Xiao Yu: ...

Naturally, they buried all the items picked up from the ancient city underground. After all, there was no space and it was difficult for them to carry them.
Now, they have arrived in the provincial capital, such a big city, they can't miss it.
"Huh?" Xiao Yu quickly rushed to the nearest vegetable purchasing point. Just as he was about to use the Transfiguration spell, he noticed that the spiritual energy in the air had become richer. "Could it be because it's farther away from Huaguo Town?" If that was the case, they might consider moving.
Anyway, given the current situation, they are homeless.
The trash cans in the provincial capital were obviously richer. In addition to rotten potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cabbages, there were also rotten pumpkins, winter melons, dried chili peppers, garlic, carrots, rotten apples, and shriveled oranges.
It's said that fruit was extremely scarce in the 1960s and 1970s. I never expected to see fruit in the late 1950s. Xiao Yu used a knife to peel away the rotten ones, only to find the seeds inside intact, so he harvested them.

Xiao Yu transformed into an old woman, wrapped in a tattered headscarf that only revealed her eyes. He left the quilt and other belongings underground and hid the child in a nearby vacant house. Carrying a torn sack, he picked up the trash, truly a man without any regard for his relatives.
Especially when he thought about the famine that would happen here in the next three years, he felt very "justified".
People queuing up to buy vegetables in the provincial capital just glanced at him because he was wearing tattered clothes. After all, even in the provincial capital, there are many poor people and it is not easy for anyone.
Xiao Yu finished picking out vegetables from one purchasing point and quickly moved on to the next. The provincial capital was huge, but there weren't many places to buy vegetables. He asked around and found out there were only four.
Okay, four is not bad.
At least he was busy for a while and picked up two sacks of things.
When he was in the ancient city, he asked Zhou Yan to transform into an old man, and after much persuasion, he finally bought two pounds of meat and a few pounds of bones from the meat processing plant. He couldn't even buy offal.
This time, he squatted in the alley behind the meat processing plant and tried every possible means. Finally, he used the meat coupons and a high price to buy five pig livers, three sets of pig offal and some large bones without meat from the family of a meat processing plant employee. He could not even think about buying other good meat.
According to that aunt, there is only one meat processing plant in the entire provincial capital. If he doesn't pay a high price, he won't get a single penny.
After buying the pig offal, Xiao Yu suddenly remembered the novel he had written.
Could he also imitate this and teleport to neighboring countries and smuggle some things back in the next three years?
After this incident, he always felt that it was urgent to earn merit and worship!
"My space, space..." Xiao Yu thought depressedly. The space he had obtained with great difficulty was gone before he could even put it to use.
If he really followed the path of fiction, what if he actually got a large amount of food but couldn't transport it back? Would he have to carry it back and forth again? How much incense would that waste?
