Chapter 947 Qi Ke's Order Meeting ([-])

Hearing the sound, General Bai, who had just eaten a bowl of red bean and taro balls, was half full. He aroused his appetite again. He couldn't help but took a piece of chicken wing and tasted it while it was hot. Then, like his son, he fell in love with it after one bite. .

Bai Qing's eating habits are not as elegant as his father's. He wiped out two chicken wings and two chicken legs in two bites, pulled two pieces of toilet paper to wipe off the oil on his hands, and glanced back and forth between milk tea and red bean and taro balls. He picked up a spoon and scooped up two taro balls and ate them.

"What are these colorful ones? The taste is quite special." Bai Qing chewed two and swallowed them whole.

"Taro balls, made with grass potato flour."

"Grass potato flour? Ah, the food given by the caravan?" Bai Qing looked at the meatballs in the bowl with a little surprise, "Is this the way to eat? Didn't they say this is the staple food?"

"It's the staple food. Spread the pancakes and eat them. I just eat them in a different way, just like rice noodles."

"Oh~" Bai Qing tasted a few more taro balls and savored them carefully, "Indeed, after chewing a few more times, it tastes like the pancakes. The pancakes really grind your teeth when they are cold, but they are quite delicious when they are hot. Not bad. Dad, have you received the grass potato flour I sent someone? What do you think? Is it necessary to buy it? "

The captain of Ocean No. [-] gave ten catties of grass and potato flour samples. After trying it, Bai Qing sent the rest to Dong'an Mansion. According to the time, General Bai should have tasted it.

"I've eaten it. It's good to eat it while it's hot. I left a few pancakes for a night on purpose, and my cheeks are tired and sore." General Bai recalled the feeling of trying to eat, and subconsciously touched his chin.

Bai Qing laughed twice disrespectfully to his father.

Qi Ke also lowered his head and drank two sips of milk tea, suppressing the smile from the corner of his mouth.

"Then shall we ask the merchant ship to bring some grass potato flour over next time?" Bai Qing asked sincerely, it is true that it is not up to him to make an order for food with overseas merchants.

"It still depends on the price. If the quantity is small, it won't work. If the quantity is large, I don't know how big the team the captain can lead. This is all related to the price."

"The price can be negotiated. If it can be negotiated, it will be in time for them to use it when they come next time. It's like digging the roots of a pig, and eating it with rice noodles. We won't have to worry about starvation in the months when the harvest is not available next year," Bai Qing said. .

"That's right, everyone can feel at ease if there is something to eat during the few months when there is no harvest." Although it is a waste of time to spread it into pancakes, it is a kind of food after all. General Bai nodded slightly and said to his son, "Let's talk about it first." , the price is up to you, if you think it has reached a balance point that you can accept.”

Qi Ke listened to the father and son singing together, and exchanged glances with Zhaolin. Zhaolin immediately contacted his assistants far away in Miandao and asked them to collect a lot of grass potatoes, which are giant plants that have just been cut and have not been pounded to dry. .

Those six islands now have a large number of slaves, who consume countless food every day. In order to save food expenses, the food supply is slowly turning to buying grass potatoes for the slaves to process grass potato flour. That island country has so many large and small islands, each island If you buy a little, no one will know where the country's food goes.

"General, Mr. Qian, is there something difficult to do right now? Lack of food? The autumn harvest in Dong'an Mansion is still not satisfactory?"

General Bai and Bai Qing shook their heads together, with indescribable expressions.

"The autumn harvest tax and grain in the entire Dong'an Prefecture is only good in Siliu Village, and other places are not good. Dong'an Prefecture itself is not famous for its rich grain." When it comes to grain, General Bai has a serious face, otherwise he would not be interested in the ship of the Global Trading Company. The team is interested in selling food.

"Um……"
