I, above the court, angrily rebuked the faint king

Zhengzhou said: "How difficult is it? You can plant it by cutting it open, and you don't need to bury it with soil, or even grow roots."

After hearing this, Wang Shouren shouted: "This is a divine fruit!"

Zhengzhou expected him to react like this, no one would be too calm after knowing the properties of potatoes.

For ordinary people, the impact of potatoes is not great.

But as a court official, an official who knows how scarce the country's crops are can better understand the value of potatoes.

Elder Chu heard some general meaning from the conversation between the two, and said, "There are still many strange plants in this mountain, why don't you take them all to see?"

Zhengzhou nodded immediately: "Okay!"

He felt more and more that this mountain was unusual.

The old man led Zhengzhou and Wang Shouren around, and finally came to a small shrub full of red peppers.

"What is this?" Wang Shouren took off one and wanted to taste it.

Before Zhengzhou had time to stop him, Wang Shouren had already thrown the pepper into his mouth.

Elder Chu smiled helplessly: "This thing is very spicy. I tasted it once and almost drank half a tank of water."

Wang Shouren reacted quickly, looking for water to drink like crazy.

There is no chili pepper in Zhongguangyu, he ate a whole one at a time, and it will naturally become what it is now.

Zhengzhou glanced at him, regardless of Wang Shouren, who was about to die from the heat, fixed his eyes on the pepper tree: "Can I take this thing away?"

Mr. Chu laughed loudly: "It's not me who planted it, so I took it away. Anyway, there are still many on this mountain, and they can grow in the coming year."

Zheng Zhou nodded secretly, took off a few pieces, and carefully put them into his bag.

Old Chu said: "There are still ahead, you come with me."

Zhengzhou is actually satisfied.

There are peppers and potatoes.

These very important crops in his previous life were found in this mountain, which he already found incredible enough.

The most important thing is that you can eat hot pot.

Unexpectedly, besides peppers and potatoes, there are other crops in this mountain, which really surprised Zhengzhou.

Not long after following Elder Chu, he saw a few plants about the height of a person.

Wang Shouren said: "This thing looks so strange, I've never seen it before."

He had recovered from the spicy taste, but he didn't dare to taste it rashly.

Zheng Zhou looked at the plants in front of him, his eyes never pulled out again.

He never thought that there would be corn in this mountain!

That's right, Elder Chu brought them here, and what they planted was corn.

Looking at this posture, the corn in this mountain is already ripe, and it will fall to the ground by itself in a short time.

This is a fetish known as one of the four staple foods of human beings.

It is a drought-tolerant plant that can be equally as good as potatoes!

Corn, like potatoes, did not flow into China until the Ming Dynasty.

"Brother Zheng, is this delicious?" Wang Shouren asked.

Zhengzhou shook his head. The current corn has not been genetically modified, so the taste is not very satisfactory. He said that it is not delicious enough, but it can fill his stomach.

"It's not delicious, but it's easy to grow!"

"Have you ever seen anything that can be grown in the Northwest?"

"Both things are fine!"

"My God!" Wang Shouren gasped.

If what Zhengzhou said is true, this contribution is not inferior to muskets and steam engines.

And in Wang Shouren's heart, these two things are more precious.

After all, no matter how precious a foreign object is, it is not as important as filling your stomach.

It is the first and most important thing to fill the stomachs of the people of the new dynasty.

"Bring more of these things. At the beginning, they should not be as good as potatoes. After trial and error, it should be easier." Zhengzhou arranged for Wang Shouren to break the corn, and he followed Mr. Chu to wander around in the mountains, looking at the many plants he found. .

Looking at Zhengzhou one by one, many of them are wild fruits and plants that have grown in the mountains since ancient times.

The only thing that really works is a potato, peppers and potatoes.

Other things can't be planted even if they are taken out.

In addition, it is not worth planting specially.

After collecting many fetishes, he returned to Elder Chu's wooden house, where he heated up the potatoes again.

Zhengzhou chopped the chili into cubes, sat on the table and said, "Actually, this is how it is eaten."

Chapter 203 Hit a Wall

Zhengzhou peeled off the potato skins and sprinkled chopped chili peppers on top. There is no condiment such as vinegar and salt here, so it can only be used in such a hasty way.

The mellow aroma of the potatoes conceals the spiciness of the chili peppers, making it a bit more flavorful.

Elder Chu hadn't tasted delicious food in the fairy mountains for a long time, and after taking a bite, he almost cried out of happiness.

Forced by current events, he was forced to go up the mountain.

Now it is even more difficult to think about going down the mountain.

He could no longer accept the environment at the bottom of the mountain.

It's the same even if there is no turmoil.

Zhengzhou didn't persuade him either, after he finished eating the food in the bowl, Zhengzhou cleared up the tables and chairs familiarly.
