Plane Mall: I became a group favorite by hoarding goods

Chapter 540 540. How much is the yield per mu? !
Cheng Xi estimated the time, and it was indeed next year.

"It's good to go outside. The bustle of the capital is also the most restrictive. It's not as comfortable as other places."

Then the world will be too big for her to play with, hehehe~
Shen Xingluo said "Okay" and agreed.

"At that time, I will take everyone out for a walk and visit places that Dayan has never been to."

"Then it's settled."

Cheng Xi quickly agreed without wasting a second, "It's for your own good to go around. Only by experiencing it yourself will you know what a local official should do."

"Thank you, madam, then?"

"It's easy to talk about."

Seeing her "Thank me quickly" expression, Shen Xingluo was instantly speechless, and secretly wondered why she had such a happy-go-lucky temperament? The caution and defensiveness when they first met have completely disappeared, and now they are more and more lively.

I think it was because I was burdened by family background and work in my previous life, and once the shackles were removed, I felt comfortable.

Cheng Xi didn't know that his thoughts had wandered elsewhere, and he began to think about traveling around.

"Can I choose the location for the release?"

"nature."

Shen Xingluo met her expectant eyes and uttered two words ruthlessly, "No."

Cheng Xi: "."

He was still out of breath when he spoke.

"It's okay. You are the European Emperor recognized by the system. You have great luck in drawing cards. This time it won't be too outrageous!"

"That's what the lady said."

The two of them stopped paying attention to where they would put it, and the topic naturally turned to the next one.

As everyone knows, sometimes luck is not outrageous, but fate is often more outrageous. Then the slap in the face comes unexpectedly.

The Holy Father mentioned high-yielding corn in the early morning court, and all the officials were shocked.

In Lin'an Mansion and Shenjia Village, Xie Wenbin's name was mentioned one after another. Everyone in the court had different expressions, and their hearts were filled with turmoil.

After the morning session on this day, people from various mansions were sent out one after another. Some people were asking for information, some were gathering in a certain exquisite house to have discussions, and some were leaving Beijing and heading towards Lin'an Mansion at high speed.

While the Shen family courtyard welcomed friends who came to inquire about the news, many people appeared around to follow them.

Cheng Xi told several people in her family and stopped caring, and continued to live her own life. Mr. Xu, who usually promoted medicinal plants in the yard, restrained himself a lot, and Shen Xingqi's training also stopped.

Fortunately, such a day did not pass for a few days, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day of corn harvest in the suburbs.

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and busy farmers can be seen everywhere in the fields outside Beijing.

Many luxurious carriages in the city drove purposefully towards an inconspicuous Zhuangzi. Wang An was busy as soon as he received Cheng Xi's instructions.

It was a sunny day, and a row of thatched huts were built around the two acres of cornfield for the distinguished guests to rest. Several young men around were holding teapots and dutifully waiting for the guests to arrive. A "pavilion" was arranged not far away. There is a large open space with several large scales placed there.

"Fuguang, did Madam really say that that day, just give them barley tea?"

"Yes."

Fuguang stood aside with his sword in hand, listening to Wang An's question for the nth time, with a hint of impatience in his cold brows.

"Is it possible that you can still find fine wine and jade dew for the adults?"

"How is that possible! Not to mention it's fine wine, I don't even have tribute tea."

"That's it."

"Aren't I afraid of offending those noble people?"

"Madam said that noble people usually eat too much delicacies from the mountains and seas. Occasionally changing to porridge and side dishes can clear the stomach and intestines, which is good for the body."

"Ouch! This is the first time I've heard you say such a long thing!"

"."

Fuguang took a deep breath, and the veins on his forehead jumped, announcing that the last trace of patience was exhausted.

"Is it fun to tease me?"

"Of course."

Wang An's original worried expression disappeared and was replaced by a look that was watching a good show.

"Not everyone can see Guard Fuguang changing his face."

"You deliberately."

"Oh, isn't this my first time meeting so many distinguished guests? It's inevitable to be a little nervous."

"."So you just make fun of me?

Fuguang said "hum", turned around and left.

"Don't run away, just chat with me for a while."

Wang An looked at Fuguang's arrogant back and pretended to sigh, unable to suppress the evil smile on his lips.

But when the first luxury carriage stopped at the entrance of Zhuangzi, he no longer had time to joke, and soon he was busy without even touching his feet.

As Shen Xingluo's friends, Qin Zheng and Yu Heting were the first ones to arrive, followed by Du, Jiang and Wu'anhou. Then, all the famous civil and military officials arrived one after another, as if they were going to participate in something. feast.

"Even if it's a palace banquet, it's only of this standard. Zijing, you still have a lot of face."

"Uncle Du was joking, it's all thanks to the corn."

“But not everyone can discover this corn.”

Du Yunshan looked at Shen Xingluo with admiration. There were so many scholars in the world, and the number one scholar was not that precious, but this was the only one who could discover two high-yielding crops in succession.

Such a great contribution will definitely go down in history.

"Do you know who is coming here today?"

"I know."

"Okay then, let's go and take you to meet someone."

Du Yunshan knew that he was worried and didn't say anything more. He pulled him away from the younger generation and walked towards the entrance of Zhuangzi.

"Thank you Uncle Du."

"They're all family members, so you're welcome."

As the Minister of Rites and coming from a scholarly family, Du Yunshan held a lot of weight in the officialdom. Today was a good opportunity to pave the way for Shen Xingluo, so he went to receive the officials as if he were half a host.

After the two met several officials, they saw the people in gorgeous clothes coming towards them. They were the princes who participated in the fight for the heir.

"Look, don't you have a lot of face?"

"You're joking."

Du Yunshan teased him a few more words, and when those people came quickly to them, his expression became more serious, and Shen Xingluo also lost the smile in his eyes.

These guys are not easy to deal with.

Here, the master of Zhuangzi and the royal "good man" were sarcastic, and on the other side of the thatched cottage pavilion, Qin, half of the master, welcomed him in. He wandered curiously around the cornfield under the bright sun, and soon there was a hole in his forehead. A layer of sweat.

When Qin Zheng saw this, he gave a light tsk and called everyone to sit down. Wang An offered barley tea with great discernment, and without leaving a trace, he glanced at the stiff expressions of the officials, feeling so happy in his heart.

Hey, are you not used to drinking?
That's right!

Madam is indeed powerful, so these people with salaries must be grounded and feel some fireworks.

***
While the farmers in the suburbs were busy with the corn harvest, Cheng Xi, who was hiding in a small courtyard in the city, was taking it easy.

"The people around you are gone." "Yes, yes, it's really hard to do anything with people watching you these days."

Shen Xingqi echoed, "They thought they were hiding so well, but they didn't know they were discovered when they came here."

"Is there a possibility that you are too powerful now?"

"what?"

"As far as I know, those who were sent here are the best among the guards."

"No way, is it such a good thing?"

"." You don't want to think about how high your current force level is.

Cheng Xi laughed, stopped continuing the topic, got up and walked towards the kitchen.

"What do you want to eat for lunch?"

"Let's eat corn too!"

When it comes to eating, Shen Xingqi immediately puts aside the issue of force value, "The adults in the suburbs want to eat corn for lunch to taste it. Although we won't go, we still need to have a sense of participation!"

"Okay, you come and do it."

"okay!"

There are so many things you can eat with corn. Even though it is a staple food, the recipes are no less than potatoes. You can make a table of noodles in minutes.

The cornfields in the suburbs have just been harvested, and there may not be many dishes that can be cooked, but there is no shortage in the Chengxi space. As long as the ingredients are completely enough, you can eat whatever you want.

Boiled corn, spicy corn ribs, big rice porridge, golden corn braised, cheese corn, fresh corn meat and wheat ear buns. Soon the kitchen was filled with smoke and the smell of bananas filled the air.

Cheng Xi took out two pieces of chicken breast separately, cut them into cubes, marinated them with marinade for a while, and took out some sweet corn kernels for later use.

She plans to make a spicy stir-fried corn chicken dish.

Shen Xingqi, who was standing next to her, could tell at a glance that this was a new dish. She did not forget to look this way frequently in order to steal the recipe, her little face full of curiosity.

Cheng Xi glanced at her and mentioned the precautions.

"This dish uses sweet corn kernels, which is a different variety. Of course, ordinary corn can also be used, but the taste is slightly different."

"Is there spicy stir-fried corn chicken in the recipe that my sister-in-law gave me to the suburban village?"

"Yes, we need to show the officials that the corn is really delicious. Otherwise, what if they don't care enough to promote it?"

"Then the ones used in the suburbs are ordinary corn?"

"nature."

"." Keep all the good things to yourself, it's you!

Shen Xingqi held a moment of silence for the officials in the suburbs quite nonchalantly, and then picked up the iron pot in her hand again.

Cut the chives into sections, leave a small part of the green onions and chop the green onions into small pieces. Crack the garlic and put the chili peppers in slices on one side. The chopping board makes a very familiar melody.

Cheng Xi prepared the vegetables and took it out of the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of salad oil and sesame oil. First, add the ginger slices and slowly sauté them over low heat. Then add the green onions, chili peppers, peppercorns, and garlic in sequence and saute until fragrant. Strain and turn into spicy oil and set aside.

"It smells so good~ It must be delicious!"

Just smelling the aroma of the air will make your mouth water. If you add sweet corn kernels to neutralize it, the taste will definitely be even better.

The anticipation in Shen Xingqi's heart was instantly filled. She quickly took out the food from her pot and stared at Cheng Xi's next move without blinking.

Leave 1 tablespoon of homemade spicy oil in the wok, add diced chicken and stir-fry until fragrant. Add corn kernels and 1 small bowl of water and stir-fry until cooked. Add appropriate amount of salt to taste.

"Are we going to start a pot?"

"Yes, but it still lacks some seasoning."

"I know, I know, sprinkle a handful of crispy green onions!"

Without Cheng Xi's intervention, Shen Xingqi happily took a handful of chopped green onions and sprinkled them on. The golden and meat-colored dishes in the iron pot were immediately added with a few green embellishments, adding to the visual impact.

"Would you like to try it?"

"Uh-huh!"

Cheng Xi first took out a separate plate and set it aside, then scooped the remaining portion into a small bowl and handed it to Shen Xingqi.

Not surprisingly, an expression of enjoyment soon appeared on the little girl's face.

"Wow~ sweet, spicy, salty, three completely different tastes perfectly blended, so delicious!"

"Then eat more and eat your brother's share too."

"Hey?"

Shen Xingqi was stunned for a second and said suddenly, "Yes, brother, I can't taste such delicious sweet corn."

At this moment, Shen Xingluo, who was worried about his sister, spent four ounces of money to dismiss the attempts by the eldest prince and the third prince, and drank barley tea with an indifferent expression and waited for the harvest.

The foreheads of the people around me were sweating suddenly, and when their mouths were dry, they wanted to drink something to soothe their throats, but the barley tea was burning, so they could only endure it.

Fu Chengqi and Fu Chengxian, who were sitting in the "luxury" seats in the middle, were even more uncomfortable. The sun was shining brightly, and even the shelter of the thatched house was of little use. In addition, they were becoming more and more irritable because of their failure to win over each other, and their faces became uglier than the last.

"Brother Emperor, this Master Shen is too presumptuous. He pretends to be confused while pretending to understand. He really doesn't give you any face."

"Humph, isn't it the same for you?"

The two looked at each other, one more deeply than the other, and then they each snorted and glanced away without looking at each other.

Not far away, Qin Zheng was shaking his folding fan and looking around. Although he also felt hot, his mood was quite cheerful.

"Xing Luo, I see that those two are not in a good mood. Are they exhausted by your stay?"

"They are princes and I am a court official. Do you think I can still be arrogant?"

"That's impossible to say."

He closed his folding fan coolly and shook his head, "You have a lot of black water in your stomach. You may trick someone at some point, and others may even count your money!"

Just like him. Well, don't think about it, it's too bad.

"Anyway, I know you know what's going on, but if you really can't shirk it, I'll be there."

Shen Xingluo was silent for a moment, "Thank you very much."

Qin Zheng raised his chin proudly, "Thank you for taking it."

It’s rare to hear these two words come out of his mouth. Hear them once and it’s less of a chance~
"The output is weighed!"

Wang An's roar came to the hut pavilion, and everyone raised their voices in unison, looking towards the open space over there, their movements as neat as if they had been trained.

The officials craned their necks to look over there, and some even left the wooden benches in excitement, no longer paying attention to the beads of sweat on their foreheads.

The two princes couldn't sit still anymore. They didn't stand up due to royal etiquette, but they were the quickest to reply.

"How many?!"

"How much is the yield per acre?"

Several people dressed as servants and guards stood beside Wang An, and after hearing this, they clasped their fists and saluted.

"Go back to my master, we have harvested a total of 1,800 catties from two acres of land, and the average yield per mu is as high as 900 catties!"

The loud voice resounded throughout the land, and just by listening to the excited trembling, one could tell that the guard was extremely uneasy at this time.

As soon as the words fell, everyone could no longer sit still. They stood up and ran towards the hill-shaped corn pile. Some people even laughed while running, without any dignity as court officials in the past.

"Nine hundred catties per mu? I heard that right!"

"Another high-yielding crop, which is a blessing to my great Yan!"
