Allure of a Country Maiden

Sauerkraut means cold potato. There are two different names for the same thing. People in the village call it cold potato.

Jingrui resisted the urge to pick out his ears: "What do you think the yield per acre of sweet potato is?"

Jingrui could never have imagined that in this world, in addition to sweet potatoes and sugarcane, one could produce several thousand or even tens of thousands of kilograms per mu. This was definitely a benefit for poor people.

Nowadays, food production is high, but some people without fields still don’t have enough to eat. Those people rely on eating sweet potatoes to satisfy their hunger. However, although sweet potatoes have high yields, they cannot be eaten on an empty stomach. Eating them on an empty stomach will cause heartburn.

Even if you eat too much sweet potatoes, you will often get hiccups.

Nowadays, sweet potatoes can produce tens of thousands of kilograms per mu, so those who only have wasteland can grow some sweet potatoes to eat.

"Brother, you heard me right. It is indeed several thousand kilograms or even tens of thousands of kilograms. This cold potato is a good thing. It can be eaten raw or cooked. It is very sweet and juicy. It is like fruit when eaten raw. It is also a delicious dish when cooked. The cold potato roots are shelf-stable and can regulate the vegetable supply in winter.

Also, because the mature roots of sweet potatoes have a high starch content, they can be extracted into starch and processed into sweet potato flour. The sweet potato flour can be stored for a longer period of time and can be used as a staple food. In this way, you don’t have to worry about heartburn when eating it with sweet potatoes. . "

"Is it easy to make sweet potato starch?" If it is easy to make, publicize the recipe of sweet potato starch and let Yum grow the sweet potato flour yourself and then make the sweet potato starch yourself.

In the past, the imperial court announced the recipe of sweet potato noodles. Now many grocery stores and noodle shops sell sweet potato noodles and sweet potato noodles. The prices are not high, but many people like to buy them and eat them. A bowl of hot and sour potato noodles in winter When I got down, my whole body felt warm.

"It's not difficult. It's almost the same as sweet potato noodles. It's just that cold potatoes are juicier than sweet potatoes, so the amount of flour produced is a little less than sweet potatoes." Xiaoer shook her head. The methods for making vermicelli are similar.

Jingrui nodded after hearing this: "That's for sure, but if that's the case, probably many Yum won't be able to make fans out of it."

Who would be happy to lose so many things for no reason! Old Yum cherishes food the most. He only wants more, not less.

"You have to give it up even if you don't want to. Being able to store it doesn't mean it won't go bad. It's better to make it into powder than to let it go bad." Shangguan Xuanyi said calmly.

"That's right." Jing Rui felt relieved knowing that jicama can produce nearly ten thousand catties per mu. Now he just needs to figure out how to grow jicama to produce ten thousand catties per mu, and then publicize the method.

"Brother, you have to invite me to a restaurant and have a good meal. I have discovered such a good political achievement for you."

Xiaoer believes that as long as the sweet potatoes are grown and a sweet potato flour workshop is set up, it will provide employment opportunities for many people and allow some people to make money by selling sweet potatoes. One acre of sweet potato can produce 10,000 kilograms, so one acre of land can earn five taels of silver. The best harvest is five months after planting sweet potatoes. Early harvesting affects the yield, and late harvesting is not good either. Harvesting occurs once every five months, and two crops can be grown in a year. In other words, a family with an acre of dry land can earn ten taels of silver a year from cold potatoes.

And after the sweet potatoes are planted, you only need to take care of them regularly, such as watering, fertilizing, and weeding. Work such as pruning, erecting, and topping can be done morning and evening, and it does not affect going out to work at all. In this way, as long as you are a diligent family, you will be able to live a better life.

Many poor people also sell sweet potatoes to sweet potato workshops, and then work in the workshops to make a living at home.

It's just that more and more people are planting sweet potatoes now, and the supply exceeds demand, making it cheaper every year, so the income from growing sweet potatoes is also less than in the previous two years.

However, some smart people know how to use sweet potatoes to make sweet potato cakes, shredded sweet potatoes, roasted sweet potatoes, dried sweet potatoes, etc. and sell them on the streets of the city, and they also make a lot of money.

In short, there is one sentence: as long as you are willing to use your brain and be diligent, you will definitely not starve to death.

There are people in this world who grow potatoes and make a little money by selling them.

There are people in this world who grow potatoes and then make more money by processing them into French fries and crisps.

What does this mean? It means: income = labor + technology + intelligence

Effective labor, technology and intelligence are three things. Every time you pay more, you can earn more.

"What's so difficult about this! You can have as many meals as you want. If you are willing, my eldest brother will take you out to restaurants every day until you are too old to walk."

"No need." Shangguan Xuanyi refused directly after hearing this. When will his woman need him to support him? He should be the one who takes the girl to restaurants every day until she can't walk any more!

Xiaoer glared at this holdover: "Brother is willing to pay me to take me to a restaurant, why do you refuse! This can also save some food expenses for the family!"

Shangguan Xuanyi: "."

After hearing this, Jingrui glanced at Xiaoer pretending to be sad: "Sure enough, girls are outgoing!"

Shangguan Xuanyi was not happy after hearing this: "This is not called a girl's extroversion, this is called a husband and wife! You should marry a wife quickly, don't understand anything! The closest relatives in this world are husband and wife, do you understand?"

Before they got married, it always hindered the couple's intimacy. After getting married, he even wanted to help support his own daughter-in-law. Huh, it's not like he couldn't afford it!

Jingrui was not happy after hearing this, "My dearest couple, you should have said two less words! Besides, even if Xiaoer marries you, she is still my biological sister, and she has the same blood as me. Of course, It was me, the eldest brother, who kissed me!"

"There are no close relatives, only close relatives! If you marry off your daughter, she will become an outsider in her parents' family!"

Xiaoer watched two naive men arguing about who she was closer to." Xiaoer couldn't help but rolled her eyes. She was too lazy to pay attention to them anymore and let them continue to argue on their own.

Xiaoer stood up and walked out.

Shangguan Xuanyi saw Xiaoer standing up and quickly followed suit: "Where are you going, girl?"

"You guys are too noisy, I'm going to hide away!" Xiaoer said unceremoniously.

After hearing this, Jingrui glared at Shangguan Xuanyi: "It's all your fault for being stingy!" His sister even disliked him for being noisy.

Shangguan Xuanyi looked coldly and didn't give him one, and directly used actions to prove who was the closest relative: "Girl, let's go back to the room. It's been a busy day, so go to bed early tonight."

How could Xiaoer not understand Shangguan Xuanyi's petty and childish thoughts? She ignored him and turned back to Jingrui: "Brother, you fell into the water to save people today. You have been busy for another day, so you should rest early."

"Okay, you should go to bed early." Jingrui agreed with a smile on his face after hearing this, and then glanced at Shangguan Xuanyi provocatively before standing up and returning to his room with satisfaction.

My sister still cares about his big brother!

"Childish!" Shangguan Xuanyi spit out two words.

"Aren't you the same!" Xiaoer looked away from him after hearing this.

Shangguan Xuanyi touched his nose.
