Chapter 154 154. Sweet Potatoes
An'an seemed to be on a treasure hunt, picking out all the things she knew, hickory nuts, wood ear mushrooms, eh... what is this?
Confused, he picked up a fluffy thing that was bigger than a wild mushroom and looked like a mushroom.

An'an glanced at it for a few times, but didn't figure out what it was, then raised her gaze to Gulan.

Mother told him that if he didn't understand, he should ask.

Gu Lanmo met her son's gaze, and she was not sure that it would be easy to cut. Fortunately, before she could answer, someone had already answered for her.

"It's Aunt Hericium," Xiang Yunjin's slightly cold voice sounded.

"What is Hericium erinaceus? Is it edible?" An Anshun asked. For him, only eating is more attractive.

"That's right, what An'an said is right, it is indeed edible, and it tastes delicious."

"Father, is it true?" Upon hearing the delicious taste, An An subconsciously asked her father for confirmation.

Although Gulan has been eaten, it is all domesticated and cultivated, and the wild ones have never been eaten, but it should be very delicious.

He nodded immediately, "Uncle Jin said it must be delicious, but Dad didn't know what kind of mushroom it was, but thought it looked strange, so he picked it back."

Strange or not, An An didn't care, as long as it was delicious, she casually threw the thing into the pile of mushrooms.

It's a pity that after searching for a while, I didn't find anything new, and An'an had subconsciously ignored the hard bumps covered in mud that I hadn't seen before.

Dirty and hard, the little guy wasn't interested at all.

Xiang Yunjin was attracted by such a pile of things. Based on his understanding of Gulan, this guy would not work hard to get back useless things in vain.

The fresh soil on his body could be seen to be freshly dug out of the soil. He saw that it looked like a rhizome fruit with red skin and the size of a fist, but Xiang Yunjin couldn't see what it was after all.
It's true that he is a high-ranking son, but it doesn't mean he doesn't know anything about farming and mulberry.

At least the common food is also known, this thing has never been seen.

"Brother Jin, don't you know him?" Gu Lan saw Xiang Yunjin's frown.

"Also... you don't know either?"

"I don't know, I found them by accident in the mountains, but I'm sure they can be eaten. They have traces of being eaten."

As he said that, Gu Lan also picked up one, snorted the soil on it casually, then rinsed it with water, broke it open to reveal the white meat inside, and handed half of it to Xiang Yunjin.

"I've smelled it, it has a faint sweet smell." Then he threw the other half of his hand to Dahei who was wagging his tail all the time.

This guy sniffed it first, and then ate it clean after a few clicks.

Looking at Dahei Gulan's eyes, a trace of guilt flashed, as if he had let this guy act as an experimenter again.

But it can only be like this, it is too fake to eat by oneself, and normal people would not do this to unknown people.

When Dahei has contributed to this world, he will make up for it with some delicious food later.

Deep in her memory, the food production in this world was as low as in the ancient times of her world.

An acre of high-quality fertile land yields only two to three hundred catties of good ones, and not even one hundred catties of poor ones. There is also an agricultural tax, and the leftover grain after paying the tax cannot last for too long.

Therefore, in order to fill their stomachs, many farmers would scramble to go to the fertile land of tenants and rich tenants. Although it was very tiring and hard work, they could finally get some food.

In the memory of the original owner, there was almost no time when he was able to eat enough. Of course, there were also reasons such as the fact that the original owner and his wife were too weak and the original owner's father-in-law was too eccentric.

But the sweet potato is different. Although it will burn your heart if you eat it for a long time, it is indeed a good food that can fill you up. The most important thing is that it has a high yield.

Even the wild sweet potatoes she found were all in pieces, and there could be two or three in one shovel.

Since God let her find out, there is a certain reason. If she pretends not to see Gu Lan, she is really worried about whether there will be a thunderbolt. Make a contribution.

When she came back, she thought about it, instead of dedicating such a good thing to the corrupt court as a ladder for some people to climb up, it would be better to pass it on through Xiang Yunjin's hand.

Gulan had a good impression of him.

The person is a little cold, but the three views are still upright, he is not a villain, otherwise, on the day when the bandits attack, he can completely turn a blind eye and sit on the sidelines, but he didn't.

Although Xiang Yunjing didn't say what his identity was, Gu Lan knew that it must be very unusual.

Being able to make them all settle in Yunzhou City with such certainty is not something that rich merchants can do.

You must know that Yunzhou City is the richest and most prosperous place in Yunzhou. If you want to settle here, the threshold will be high but not low. You must know that she refers to all the people in Lijia Village.

With three upright outlooks and certain abilities, Gu Lan naturally believed in him more.

After Dahei ate a piece, he seemed to notice the delicious taste, and he looked for the taste and ran to the pile of sweet potatoes on his own.

After sniffing for a while, he pulled out a mouthpiece and brought it to the master. He looked at the master expectantly. After all, he didn't dare to eat it without authorization, but the meaning was already obvious.

Touching Dahei's head, he picked up the sweet potato on the ground and rubbed the soil on the surface, and then the click sounded again.

Dahei used the facts to prove that this thing is not only edible but also looks good, and it is still very juicy. The white water stains on the corners of Dahei's mouth are too obvious, and some even dripped to the ground along his mouth.

Looking at Dahei, and looking at the half root fruit in his hand, Xiang Yunjin's gaze suddenly became much deeper and darker.

Animals can eat, does this also mean that people can also eat.

But without waiting for him to think too much, he saw that Gulan threw a few roots and fruits stained with soil directly into the still smoldering fire, and buried them deeply.

"What is this for?" Xiang Yunjin was surprised.

"Didn't you see it? Roast it! Chestnuts can be roasted and eaten, maybe this thing can be roasted and eaten."

When Gu Lan said this, Xiang Yunjin was also interested.

"Brother Jin, just stay here and watch. I'll take a few and ask Uncle Li and the village chief to see if they recognize each other."

Xiang Yunjin has no objection, maybe he really knows these old ways of serving the crops all his life?
So Gulan took a few sweet potatoes and went to Old Man Li first, and then to the village chief, but all he got was unknown, what was it?
Even the two respected ancestors in the village didn't know each other.

Hearing that Gulan said that Dahei's food was delicious, the family members were a little moved.

It is the instinct of animals to seek good fortune and avoid evil. Dahei smelled fine, and he ate it again, and there were more than one. Not only was it not poisonous, but the taste was not bad either.

And didn't Gulan stop talking?The places where these things were found also had obvious signs of being eaten. If there were any problems, the animals would have been hiding away.

Looking at the hard lumps in Gulan's hand, this thing looks solid, if it tastes really good, one or two can fill your stomach, it's a good meal.

Thinking of this, he followed Gu Lan to find the village head and elder Li Laohan, took the red bump in Gu Lan's hand, tried to pick some off and smelled it, and then stuffed it into his mouth as soon as his eyes lit up.

"Kacha" before the others could react, he took a bite, and then his cloudy eyes suddenly opened, and when everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe, they chewed and swallowed it again.

"Well, you Li Jianghe, why are you still a fool at such an old age, you are not afraid that there is a problem!"

Village head Li blew his beard and stared at old man Li, if the old man hadn't moved too fast, he would not have made him so reckless.
