The white porridge and pickled mustard is enough, why am I wearing a royal robe?

Chapter 95 Delicious
The Tianbing holding the sweet potato almost drooled when he smelled the fragrance. It smelled even better than tea eggs, sweet and fragrant.

"Go and let some of the folks try it."

Liu Zhenhua said.

Hearing this, the people in the front row suddenly showed expressions of excitement and anticipation, looking at the heavenly soldiers holding sweet potatoes in their hands.

What’s more, they were able to eat such delicious sweet potatoes.

The heavenly soldiers carefully held the sweet potatoes and came to these people.

If it weren't for the sweet potato being held by the heavenly soldiers, other people would have rushed up to share it and eat it.

Whether you can eat these sweet potatoes now depends on your luck, and the people standing a little further back suddenly regretted why they and others didn't stand there?
If you miss it this time, I'm afraid you will never be able to eat such delicious food in this life.

"Folks, eat."

Tianbing held the sweet potato and said, he swallowed, he also wanted to eat it, but due to military discipline, he couldn't.

After receiving the permission from the heavenly soldiers, the three or four common people standing in front of the heavenly soldiers immediately stretched out their hands to grab the sweet potatoes, regardless of the steaming sweet potatoes.

"hiss."

These people were grinning because the roasted sweet potato was so hot, but they still didn't let go, grabbed it directly, and stuffed it into their mouths.

The people around him suddenly showed envious expressions, staring intently at the few people who ate the sweet potatoes.

"Hiss, ho ho ho."

Several farmers who ate sweet potatoes were burned to the point of making hissing sounds.

Although their mouths hurt from the roasted sweet potatoes, they still chewed quickly, and their eyes lit up as they chewed.

"How about it, how about it."

The people around looked at these chewing people and asked quickly.

“It’s delicious, it’s delicious!”

One of them gave a thumbs up. This roasted sweet potato was so delicious, fragrant, sweet and glutinous. The only bad thing was that it was too hot. He felt like his mouth should have blistered from the burn.

But being able to eat such delicious food is worth it in this life.

Hearing this, the people who had not eaten the roasted sweet potatoes were all filled with envy and kept chewing on them, as if they had also eaten the delicious roasted sweet potatoes.

"Fellow folks, do you want to eat these sweet potatoes?"

Liu Zhenhua asked with a smile.

"Think about it, Stove Lord, we all want to eat this stuff in our dreams."

The people said one after another that they all knew that this thing might be extremely precious. It should only exist in the sky and rarely be heard of in the world.

When Liu Zhenhua heard this answer, he immediately smiled and said in his heart, there will be food for you in the future.

"Actually, this thing is not precious. Everyone can eat it in the future."

Liu Zhenhua said softly, and what he said caused the people to be in an uproar.

They heard something. The Kitchen God said that these delicious things were not precious, but there were obviously no such things on the ground.

They looked at Liu Zhenhua eagerly. The Kitchen King would not fool them, which meant that what the Kitchen King said was true.

Is it possible that Kitchen King can conjure up more roasted sweet potatoes like this?

"Sweet potatoes are a crop that can be grown from the ground."

Liu Zhenhua's words shocked the people again. Since this thing also grows in the ground, why haven't they seen it before? "Kitchen King, can these sweet potatoes survive these days if they are planted in the ground?"

Someone asked, directly asking the thoughts of the people around him.

At this age, if there is no rain in the summer and no snow in the winter, all the crops planted will die and there will be no harvest. I am afraid the same will be true for the sweet potatoes.

"Of course it can survive. This sweet potato is very drought-resistant and easy to survive. Even in this situation, it can still bear fruit in three to four months, and one acre of land can produce more than four stones."

Liu Zhenhua said loudly that in the late Ming Dynasty, although it was called a drought, it was not an absolute drought. If the rain did not fall, half of the Ming Dynasty would have turned into a desert long ago.

This type of drought means there is no rain or snow during the season. Although rain and snow occasionally fall in other seasons, the amount is very small. Although the surface of the soil is dry and cracked, if you continue to dig deeper, you can still dig out moist soil.

Sweet potatoes have well-developed root systems and can survive under such conditions. However, under these conditions, even if the sweet potato seedlings in the system mall are of relatively high quality, Liu Zhenhua does not dare to say too much about the yield per mu.

Even so, the number of four stones was enough to make the people exclaim.

What they heard was that drought-tolerant sweet potatoes could produce four stones per acre of land.

You must know that in ancient times, one acre of land generally produced about one stone of wheat. Therefore, when there was no unit of mu in ancient times, one acre of land was often called one stone.

Right now, one acre of sweet potatoes can actually produce four acres of food. One acre is better than four acres. Moreover, these sweet potatoes can be harvested in three or four months.

There is actually such food in the world. If they had grown such food earlier, how could they still be in the current famine situation?

The Kitchen King was really in charge of the people's food, and actually gave them such incredible crops.

"Look, folks," Liu Zhenhua stretched out his free hand. Under the gaze of the people, a sweet potato seedling appeared in his free hand.

"After this species is planted, sweet potatoes can grow. Not only can the sweet potatoes grown be eaten, but the leaves can also be made into a delicious dish."

"The most important thing is that it is extremely easy for sweet potatoes to survive. Even if the seedlings are just planted and buried in the soil, they can still survive."

"Today, I will give you thousands of these seedlings for you to plant and spread, so that the people under my rule can survive the disaster years and not be troubled by severe drought."

Hearing this, the people all wept and knelt down one after another. In the past, Shennong passed down the five grains, but today the Kitchen King passed down the sweet potatoes.

"Thank you, Kitchen King!"

"Long live the Kitchen King."

"Thank you, Lord Stove."

The common people knelt on the ground and sobbed and cried. With this thing, they no longer have to worry about starving to death. The yield per acre of this thing is so huge and easy to feed. The planting period is still short, so what kind of wheat should be planted? Woolen cloth.

Wouldn’t it be enough to plant them all?

The heavenly soldiers and militiamen also thought the same way. This sweet potato seems to be better than white porridge and mustard.

Liu Zhenhua suddenly said loudly, "Fellow folks, I have one more thing to tell you about these sweet potatoes."

Everyone raised their heads and pricked up their ears to listen. This sweet potato was of great importance and there was no room for them to be careless.

"Although this product tastes sweet when you first eat it, if you eat too much of it, you may experience symptoms such as acid reflux, bloating, heartburn, burping and farting."

Liu Zhenhua pointed out the shortcomings of eating sweet potatoes often, which is why Liu Zhenhua is taking out sweet potatoes now. He is not worried that sweet potatoes will replace rice and wheat, making his subsistence meals without core competitiveness.

Even in modern times, high-yielding crops such as sweet potatoes, corns and potatoes have not replaced wheat and rice. They are still the mainstream, let alone in ancient times.

Liu Zhenhua only used these things to prevent the people from starving to death for the time being and relieve food pressure. After all, compared to starving to death, these shortcomings of sweet potatoes are acceptable.

After listening to Liu Zhenhua's words, the people suddenly realized that it was like this. Everything must be lacking, and the same seemed to be true for these sweet potatoes. But even so, the people still valued these sweet potatoes. After all, there was nothing to eat at the moment, and they were almost becoming disaster victims. A refugee.

The Tianbing militiamen heard this and understood. This thing is okay to eat occasionally. It is really delicious. It has to be white porridge, pickled mustard and tea eggs.
