Lawrence had an undisguised look of smugness on his face. He raised his lips slightly and said in a brisk tone, "The good news is! Through my unremitting efforts, I have successfully obtained a full 300,000 tons of oats from faraway Australia! It is estimated that in about a month, this batch of precious materials will be able to arrive at the destination smoothly."

Hearing this astonishing figure, Zhang Jianjun couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of disbelief: "What? As many as 300,000 tons? How many transport ships are needed to transport such a huge amount of food! Disciple, you really made a great contribution this time!"

Pondering secretly in his heart, Zhang Jianjun knew very well what these extra 300,000 tons of oats meant - they would be the key to saving countless disaster victims from dire straits, and could save countless fresh and fragile lives!

Seeing this, Lawrence smiled and asked, "Master, do you think this food is enough? If it's not enough, I can continue to think of ways to send people to collect more food!"

Zhang Jianjun nodded without hesitation and said, "Not enough! It's definitely far from enough! For a vital necessity like food, it's better to have too much in stock than to have a shortage. How about this, I will give you 3 million in funds as support first. If there is still a shortage later, I will make up for it in time!"

After saying that, Zhang Jianjun quickly took out the check that was handed to him by Uncle Jie.

However, facing the huge check handed over by his master, Lawrence waved his hands repeatedly and declined with a smile: "Master, why are you doing this? How can I accept your money? Just consider it as my investment. When you make a profit in the future, don't forget to give me a share of it!"

Seeing Lawrence's firm attitude, Zhang Jianjun no longer forced him. He patted him on the shoulder generously and said loudly: "Well! There is no need to be so polite between us as master and disciple. I will certainly not treat you unfairly." His words were full of trust and respect for this proud student.

"Master, don't be so polite. I've told you that China is my second home. I'm very happy to be able to help you!" Lawrence said that there was no need to be polite with him, as he was also a member of the flower-growing family.

"Okay! Today I will make your favorite black truffle and reward you." Zhang Jianjun smiled and turned into the kitchen.

"Zhu Zi, why are you here? Are you hungry? The meal will be ready soon!" Yu Li thought Zhang Jianjun was hungry, so she smiled and tried to comfort him.

"It's okay, just cook your meal. I dug some black truffles today and I'm going to cook them for my apprentice!" Zhang Jianjun said as he took out seven or eight black truffles from his pocket.

"Jianjun, are you sure this thing is edible? This is not feeding..." Yu Li stopped talking halfway and immediately shut up.

"I know this is for feeding pigs, but abroad it is only enjoyed by the nobility. It is known as one of the three top ingredients in the world." Zhang Jianjun explained helplessly.

"Oh! This nobleman is really weird. He likes to eat things that are fed to pigs. By the way, Jianjun! What are the other two top ingredients?" Yu Li was so curious that she couldn't help but ask.

"Foie gras! Caviar! Black truffle!" Zhang Jianjun began to explain. His hands were not idle either. He cut the ham, bacon and other ingredients into thin slices, planning to stir-fry the black truffles later.

"I see! It seems that I can't be a noble and can't eat the food they like." Yu Li shook her head helplessly and started her work again.

Soon Zhang Jianjun finished his preparations and started to heat the oil in a pan. He first added the scallions, ginger and garlic to stir-fry, then added the ham and bacon, stir-fried for a while and finally added the black truffle.

High-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods. After ten minutes of hard work, Chef Zhang has already prepared three delicious dishes - black truffle sashimi, stir-fried black truffle, and a black truffle broth.

When the food was served, Lawrence's mouth was watering with greed. He had never seen so many black truffle delicacies. In his country, black truffles were at most cut into a few thin slices with a planer when frying steaks and mixing spaghetti.

To be honest, this little bit of black truffle is not enough to fill the gaps between his teeth. Today, Lawrence has achieved black truffle freedom.

Lawrence couldn't wait to pick up a piece of black truffle sashimi, dipped it in soy sauce and mustard, and put it in his mouth, making a crunching sound.

Qin Jingru and Yu Li, seeing Lawrence eating so happily, couldn't wait to pick up a piece, and following Lawrence's example, dipped it in the seasoning and put it in their mouths.

"Pah, pah, pah! It's so disgusting. Why does this black truffle taste so weird?" Qin Jingru spat out all the black truffle that she had just put into her mouth.

"Well! It's really unpalatable! But it's acceptable!" Yu Li also stiffened her neck and swallowed the black truffle.

"You're not used to it, right? This thing is just like coriander. People who like it love it a lot, but people who don't like it really can't eat it!" Zhang Jianjun joked with a smile.

"Master's wife, you really don't know how to enjoy life. You actually vomited out something delicious." Lawrence said with some regret.

"If it's delicious, eat more. I can't get used to it anyway!" Qin Jingru curled her lips and said with some disgust.

Lawrence was so happy when he heard that, he basically ate up the two large plates of black truffles by himself!

After dinner, everyone dispersed. Lawrence went to the next room to take a medicinal bath. Yu Li cleared the dishes and took them to the kitchen to wash. At this moment, the voice of the system suddenly came from Zhang Jianjun's mind.

[The one hundred acres of potatoes planted by the host have all matured. A total of one million kilograms of potatoes and four million kilograms of potato seedlings have been obtained and have now been placed in the space.]

"Fuck! It's been less than a month and all the potatoes are already ripe? The yield per acre is as high as 10,000 kilograms. This is going to be a big deal!" Zhang Jianjun shouted excitedly.

"What's wrong, Brother Jianjun? What happened to make you so excited?" Qin Jingru asked in surprise.

"It's okay! It's okay! The potatoes I planted are ripe!" Zhang Jianjun explained in a low voice.

"Oh! If they're cooked, they're cooked. You look so excited. How many potatoes are there in total?" Qin Jingru curled her lips and said with disdain.

"A full one million kilograms of potatoes, based on the market price of two cents at the lowest, one million kilograms of potatoes would cost a lot of money!" Zhang Jianjun explained with a smile.

"How much? How much did you say? One million kilograms of potatoes? Brother Jianjun, please keep planting!" Qin Jingru urged impatiently.

"Okay!" Zhang Jianjun nodded, and then contacted the system in his mind: "How much land is left for planting? Plant potatoes on all of it!"

[One hundred and ninety acres of potatoes have been planted. The host originally had two hundred acres of land, one acre was planted with leeks, one acre was planted with peppers, and the remaining eight acres were transformed into a farm.]

The system is also very powerful, allowing Zhang Jianjun to understand everything clearly.

"By this calculation, we can have 1.9 million kilograms of potatoes a month. There are still about ten months before the famine, so that means 19 million kilograms of potatoes. There is still not enough food!" Zhang Jianjun couldn't help but calculate in his mind.
