Chapter 137 Sweet Potatoes
"Senior brother, is this you?" Feng Xiaoxia asked.

"Not bad!" Zhao Shi replied.

"Wow, I didn't expect that senior brother can also use a gun!" Feng Xiaoxia said with an amazed expression.

Zhao Shi felt that Feng Xiaoxia was much more lively now.

"I've been practicing for nothing these years!"

The two chatted for a few minutes and then said goodbye.

Zhao Jiayu, Feng Xiaoxia held the phone tightly. She mustered up a lot of courage to send a message to Zhao Shi. Now? Her face was slightly red, a little shy.

Just like her mother said, if you meet a good man, you have to grab him.

Although it is still early for them to start dating, they talked a lot today, which is a good development.

After Zhao Shi finished the chat, he thought for a moment and decided to let things take their course.

You must get married, otherwise you won’t be able to get past your parents’ approval.

But he has too many secrets, and balancing the two worlds is a headache.

Soon Zhao Shi put these thoughts aside.

He still has a lot of things to do today, one of which is a big purchase.

Now Zhao Shi’s financial support is no longer in short supply, and he can bring some daily necessities to his wife and children.

It was during this move that Zhao Shi discovered that he had not brought the soap to his wife and daughter.

Another thing is that you need to run a workshop. Once there are too many refugees, it is impossible for them all to farm, and farming does not require so many people.

The workshop became the first choice.

Moreover, the workshop can continue to attract popularity, and he will get more incense offerings.

But what to produce gave him a headache.

In addition to the workshop, you need to consider carefully what to grow on the land.

Requires large production volume.

At least we have to feed everyone.

Ultimately, the only foods that meet these two criteria are sweet potatoes and potatoes.

He just hasn't decided what to bring.

It is unrealistic to plant potatoes or sweet potatoes on Zhao Jiayu's thousands of acres of land in the other world. There are not so many seeds. Even if his incense power is enough, the cost-effectiveness is too different.

Zhao Shi wrote down sweet potatoes and potatoes on a piece of paper, and then listed their advantages and disadvantages one by one.

It's it!
In the end, Zhao Shi chose sweet potatoes.

Moreover, his requirements for the sweet potato seeds he selected were very simple: easy to grow, not picky about the soil, and high yield. As for the taste, he did not consider it at all.

People only care about taste when they are full.

I went to the seed station and bought enough sweet potatoes to plant an acre of land. After writing down the planting methods and requirements, I began to transport them to the other world.

It’s night on the Blue Planet and day in the Other World.

Jiang Ling'er and Zhao Yan were cleaning the living room.

They had seen what was in the living room, but they didn't know what it was.

"Dad, what are these?" Seeing Zhao Shi appear, Zhao Yan ran over, grabbed Zhao Shi's arm and asked.

Although Zhao Shi still feels a little illusory now, he already has a sense of touch. Although he does not have the warmth that a human should have, he can still be touched by people.

Ever since she was able to be contacted, Zhao Yan has been sticking to him most of the time.

"Haha, these are good stuff!"

Zhao Shi smiled and took out a soap from a pile of daily necessities and handed it to his daughter, saying, "This is soap. You can use it to wash your face and hands, or when you take a bath. This has the scent of peony flowers. Smell it and see if you like it. Or tell me what scent you like, and I'll bring it back to you later!"

Zhao Yan took the soap box with some curiosity and smelled it.

Suddenly a fragrance came to my nose.

good smell!

It’s also intoxicating!

It smells better than any rouge and powder in the rouge and powder shop.

"Dad, it smells so good! I want this!"

Zhao Yan'er took a deep breath of the fragrance intoxicated and said excitedly.

He was used to his father taking out these magical things. "Ling'er, take a look at what flavor you like. These flavors are different. Use the one you like!" Zhao Shi saw that his daughter was satisfied, so he greeted Jiang Ling'er.

Jiang Linger picked up the soap and smelled it and was also shocked. She originally thought that her daughter was a little exaggerated, but she didn't expect that it was not the case at all, and was even a little conservative.

She had never smelled anything so delicious.

The two of them smelled more than a dozen types of soap and each picked a scent they liked.

"Try it!"

Zhao Shidao.

The mother and daughter happily washed their hands and faces with soap.

"Mom, you smell so good!" After washing, Zhao Yan pulled her mother to smell it, and immediately felt a fragrance on her mother's hands and face.

It has a different scent from the rouge and powder they use.

Not only is it more fragrant, but it is also very soft and has no pungent feeling.

This is just for washing hands and face. If you take a bath, it will probably be even more fragrant. This is much better than those women from big families who take a bath with flower petals.

"Brother Shi, what is this?"

Jiang Linger asked when she saw a pile of things that seemed to have been dug out of the soil.

Zhao Yan also ran over at this time, poked the things in the bag with her fingers curiously, and looked at Zhao Shi.

"This is called sweet potato. Compared to soap, sweet potato is the real treasure!" Zhao Shi said with a smile.

"Sweet potatoes?"

"What is it?"

"Anything to eat?"

Jiang Ling'er and Zhao Yan asked in surprise when they heard Zhao Shi say it was a treasure.

In their opinion, the beautifully packaged soap is definitely better than these random things covered in dirt, but now the child’s father says that this thing is the treasure?

"It's for food, but it's also seeds, and the foundation of our family in the future!" Zhao Shi said.

When they heard that they were seeds, Ling'er and Zhao Yan immediately took two steps back.

Afraid of breaking it!
Although they are not farmers and have never planted crops, they know the meaning of seeds.

hope!

I would rather starve my parents to death than eat the crops they grow.

For farmers, seeds are more important than human lives.

"Ling'er, Yan'er, do you know the yield of sweet potatoes? One acre can produce up to 1,000 dan, and at least 600 to 700 dan."

boom.
Zhao Shi's words were like thunder in their hearts.

Even the body couldn't help shaking.

A look of horror.

There is no disbelief, nor any doubt.

Anyone could cheat on them, except their own men (fathers).

One thousand stones per mu?

What a concept, the output of this one acre of land is equivalent to the output of 35 acres of ordinary fields.
Once all of Zhao Jiayu's land is planted, he will never lack food again, and they will not be afraid even if thousands of refugees come.

"Yan'er, go call Master Bao and let him look after these seeds personally. No accidents can happen!" Jiang Ling'er instructed Zhao Yan after she reacted.

The child’s father may not take these things seriously and just put them on the ground casually, but they cannot take them lightly.

This will have extraordinary significance for the Zhao family and for all of humanity.

A world without hunger is not impossible.

"Yes, mother!"

Zhao Yan responded and ran out.

"Brother Shi, is this also from the family? Does that mean the family will never go hungry?" Jiang Linger asked curiously after Zhao Yan left.

"That's right! Compared to here, the family has already solved the problem of food. Now the family no longer regards sweet potatoes as a staple food. They eat them just to change the taste. Even the output is no longer the pursuit of the family. As far as sweet potatoes are concerned, the family prefers small and delicious ones.

"The seeds I brought are no longer grown in my family because they don't taste good, even though they have the highest yield and are not picky about the soil."

Zhao Shi nodded to confirm her statement. Nowadays, there is no problem with food even in the remote mountainous areas of Blue Star. People no longer pursue to have enough to eat, but to eat well.
