Chapter 308: The taste of fries

"Thirty-two stones. August 1???? Chinese ㈠??"
Pang Yukun's excited heart almost jumped out.
"Yes, it is thirty-two stones. It is true." Kui Wu added up the weighed figures.
"Thirty-two stones, thirty-two stones!" Pang Yukun pretended to be a madman, and couldn't help thinking: "One mu of land can produce no more than two stones of grain, and one mu of potatoes is worth 16 mu of rice. A family of three has cultivated land. One hundred acres, the harvest is only 200 shi. If you plant potatoes, you can get 3,200 shi. This family can afford to have ten children."
Kui Wu swallowed at the crazy Pang Yukun, then looked at Xiao Ming with a calm face, and carefully said, "Your Highness, what happened to Pang Changshi."
"Happy crazy." Xiao Ming laughed.
"Is this crazy, and happy?" Kui Wu shook his head holding the account book.
Xiao Ming patted Kuiwu's shoulder at this time, "You did a good job. Starting today, the status of this slave is lifted. As for the household registration, the government office will handle it for you."
Kui Wu was startled for a moment, and a wave of ecstasy surged into his heart. Like Pang Yukun, he laughed with excitement and couldn't help shouting, "I am not a slave, I am not a slave."
A group of slaves were speechless, this one went crazy, and then another went crazy.
Looking at the excited two, Xiao Ming laughed happily. The next step is to let the government encourage the people to have more births. The population is fighting power these days.
In the evening, Xiao Ming returned to the city listening to Pang Yukun's laughter along the way. The high yield of potatoes completely conquered this long history.
Parting in Qingzhou City, Xiao Ming returned to the palace with a small bag of potatoes on his horse. At this time, the palace dining room was preparing to eat at night.
"His Royal Highness, what is this bag?"
Fei Yueer, who was familiar with the environment in the yard, walked towards Xiao Ming accompanied by Xiaohuan.
Today, Xiao Ming is in a particularly happy mood. These potatoes are not only a question of eating, but also another commercial growth point in Qingzhou. If these potatoes are sold everywhere in the country, it will be another huge profit.
"This is Tudou, Princess, today this king will let you see the magic of Qingzhou."
Having said that, Xiao Ming ordered people to go to the dining room to get the briquettes and iron pots, and prepare cutting boards and kitchen knives. Then he opened his posture in the yard to prepare a modern cuisine.
"His Royal Highness, what are you doing?" Xiao Ming's actions attracted Aster and Lulu, each with a surprised expression, Fei Yue'er couldn't help asking.
Xiao Ming chuckled and said, "Don't ask now. You will understand later when you eat."
Under everyone's gaze, Xiao Ming began to cut the potatoes into shreds, then put the potato shreds in hot water and blanched them. Then, Xiao Ming asked the servants to get saltpeter and a large basin of water.
When the saltpeter was put into the water, a white mist began to appear in the basin, and the water gradually froze. At this time, Xiao Ming placed the bowl of potato shreds in the middle of the water, and covered it with a layer of cotton cloth.
This method of making ice with saltpeter has long been a secret in the country of Da Yu. The dignitaries of the country would also use the method of making ice with saltpeter to relieve the heat in the summer. Therefore, Xiao Ming was not surprised by this trick.
Frozen in ice water for a while, waiting for the potato shreds to freeze. At this time, Xiao Ming took the potato shreds out, put them in the boiling oil pan, sprinkled them with salt, and fished them out when they were cooked.
The golden French fries exuded an attractive fragrance on the plate, and the crowd of onlookers immediately swallowed their saliva.
"His Royal Highness, what is this?" Fei Yue'er blinked her big eyes.
"French fries." Xiao Ming picked up a fries and brought it to Fei Yueer's mouth. Such affection made Fei Yue'er face red.
But after all, this is the royal palace, all of them, Fei Yueer still took a bite. The golden fries are crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the deep-fried scent is full of fragrance.
Fei Yueer was conquered by the "fries" just after taking a bite. She finished the fries in one bite, and she didn't know what to do.
At this time, Xiao Ming began to explain the source of potatoes and how to grow and eat potatoes. At this time, everyone understood.
"It produces thirty-two stones per mu, and it is so delicious." Fei Yueer reads poems and naturally knows what this means. She said: "Your Royal Highness, the profit of this potato is enough to make the people of the six states prosperous."
"Yes, I think so too. When I came back, I discussed with Pang Yukun. They will promote potatoes in these two days, and let the people in Liuzhou plant at least one mu of potatoes per household. Even if they can't finish eating them, they can take them out. Sold." Xiao Ming triumphed.
Fei Yue'er nodded, looking at Xiao Ming, there was a trace of admiration in her heart. This man was not only respected by status, but also sighed by the most important magical skills.
Just like in Chang'an, the more I understand Qingzhou, the more I am full of yearning for this place.
With a smile at the corner of her mouth, Fei Yue'er's heart suddenly let go. With such a man, what would her husband want?
"It's delicious." Fei Yueer ate another piece of French fries. She greeted Aster and Lulu, "You all come and taste the craftsmanship of your Royal Highness."
Luluo loves to eat the most, her saliva has been spinning in her mouth for a long time, she timidly picked up a French fries and ate it, her eyes widened and aster was not far behind, Xiaohuan also extended her small hand.
Under the attack of the five people, a plate of French fries was quickly wiped out, and then the four people looked at Xiao Ming beggingly.
In desperation, Xiao Ming had to fry another pot of French fries. They didn't eat much for dinner this evening. They all ate fries half full.
It wasn't until the lanterns in the palace were lighted up that Fei Yue'er wiped his mouth and returned to the bedroom with satisfaction.
These days, the boat and the boat are tired, and today I am familiar with various affairs in the palace. When I returned to the sleeping hall, Fei Yue'er was a little nap, and Xiao Ming was also a little sleepy, so he urged Fei Yue'er to take a bath with him before going to bed.
Fei Yue'er blushed~EbookFREE.me~ After a bit of tweaking, she went to the bathroom with Xiao Ming, but when she saw the bathtub, toilet, and washbasin in the bathroom, she regained her energy and asked Xiao Ming’s arm. go with.
Xiao Ming smiled and explained them one by one, and also demonstrated it again, which made Fei Yue'er more surprised.
Hot water flowed into the bathtub from the water tower, and the two of them undressed and bathed in spring again. Fei Yue'er blinked. At this moment, she suddenly felt like a village girl entering Chang'an City from the village.
"His Royal Highness, are you smiling that Yue'er doesn't understand anything." Turning his head to see Xiao Ming smiling, Fei Yue'er pouted dissatisfied.
Xiao Ming said, "Why? This Wang laughs only because he has married a beautiful wife."
Fei Yue'er pursed her lips and laughed. She said: "Yue'er marrying His Royal Highness is also a blessing of a century of cultivation. In the future, she only wishes to grow old with His Royal Highness."
Looking at Fei Yue'er, whose smile did not contain a trace of impurities, Xiao Ming felt warm, and he finally had a home.
