Chapter 19 Fried Potatoes

Institute of Botany, Imperial Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

The robot Doudou sent 300 big potatoes. Song Yi and Nong Jiamao were shocked when they saw it, and they said that these potatoes were too expensive to accept this gift.But Doudou has received instructions from his master Guan Yu and insists on completing the task. Song Yi and the two can't talk to the rigid robot, so they can only ask Doudou to move the potatoes to the warehouse.

After the robot left, the two tidied up the warehouse and took a rest in the office. After hearing footsteps in the stairwell, they went out to have a look, and found Guan Yu holding Tangtang.

I haven't seen him for a few days, but Guan Yu has become a bit stronger, the muscle lines of his chest under the soft fabric of the T-shirt are faintly visible, and the smile on his handsome face has become brighter and brighter.

The three of them greeted each other, and Guan Yu sat down with Tangtang in his arms.Thinking of Guan Yu's secret, Song Yi carefully closed the door.

Guan Yu told the two about his success in cooperating with the official store. Song Yi nodded with satisfaction after hearing this; , love them.

After chatting for a while, Guan Yu explained the purpose of his visit. Hearing that, Song Yi's old eyes widened slightly, and he said in surprise, "You want to grow purple cabbage? Now you are alone and have to take care of the children. Are you busy?"

Guan Yu smiled indifferently and said, "I have the robot Doudou to help me, and I can share a lot of it. But last time I troubled Mr. Song to recruit someone to help me, I still have to worry about it."

Doudou can indeed undertake many trivial tasks, but as the planting scale becomes larger and larger, one robot is definitely not enough.Guan Yu couldn't afford expensive robots, so he had to hire someone to help.

Song Yi promised to contact Guan Yu as soon as he had any news, and then sold him 20 seeds at the price of 100 star coins per purple cabbage seed.

Guan Yu still didn't understand people's attitude towards purple cabbage, so he decided to buy some seeds first.After receiving the planting points from Song Yi, Guan Yu promised to contact the two of them after planting purple cabbage, and then went home with Tangtang.

Before leaving, Song Yi took two packs of candies from the refrigerator and handed them to Guan Yu, saying they were for Tang Tang.

Guan Yu couldn't refuse, so he had to take the two packs of maltose with Yinhe company's logo on it, and thanked him again and again: "Thank you! Songlao, it's really costing you so much!"

Guan Yu saw it in Drew Star's official store. A pack of maltose with only six pieces cost 500 star coins to buy, which can be called a luxury.

"No, no," Elder Song's old face turned ruddy, and his eyes sparkled, "It's really expensive for you to send 300 potatoes! Don't do that again next time."

Nong Jiamao pushed his glasses, scratched the tip of his nose, cleared his throat and said, "Sorry..."

Guan Yu waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay. Don't take it to heart, isn't it normal for friends to give gifts! Tangtang, we want to thank uncle, thank you grandpa."

After coming to Drew Star, the two people from the Institute of Botany and Zhong Yang gave Guan Yu a lot of help, and he already regarded them as friends.

Tangtang, who hadn't eaten candy for a long time, pinched a pack of maltose with her small hand, swallowed her saliva, and said obediently, "Thank you uncle! Thank you grandpa!"

"You're welcome." There was a smile on Nong Jiamao's usually serious face.

On the other hand, Song Yi had a doting face, and touched the baby's little golden head: "No thanks, Tangtang is so good, eat sweets." After speaking, the two sent the father and son out of the research institute.

As soon as he got on the suspended bus, Guan Yu helped Tangtang who couldn't wait to tear open the outer package of a maltose, and put the milky white one the size of a fingernail into his mouth.

The malt fragrance and sweet taste instantly awakened the taste buds on Tangtang's little tongue, and the baby's eyes turned into crescent moons, and the little throat kept swallowing.

Guan Yu looked at him with a smile: "Is it delicious?"

"Delicious!" Tangtang nodded her head vigorously, grabbed a candy and handed it to Guan Yu, "Daddy eats too."

"Okay. Thank you Tangtang for sharing with Dad." After Guan Yu thanked his son, he peeled off the wrapper and ate one.

Sure enough, it was the maltose taste that Guan Yu was familiar with when he was a child.It's just that I didn't expect that the snacks sold by hawkers along the street with burdens in the past have become luxury goods in the interstellar era.

Because the life of crops on the ancient earth was fragile, sugar cane, sugar beet, malt and other crops for making sugar were scarce, and the price of candy remained high.

Like sugar, vegetable oil extracted from oil crops such as peanuts and soybeans, soy sauce made from soybeans, vinegar made from grains such as glutinous rice and wheat, and spices such as chili, pepper, cumin, coriander, and basil Becomes very expensive for the same reason.

Only the salt is extracted from minerals and seawater, without much influence.

It stands to reason that without the blessing of seasonings, the deliciousness of the ingredients will be greatly reduced.But after Guan Yu tasted the potatoes he grew, he felt that the seasoning was indeed the icing on the cake, but the potatoes themselves tasted very good, so there was no need for excessive seasoning.

People who are used to eating nutrient solution will definitely like it.

After returning home, the robot Doudou, who was alone at home, was making potato seeds according to Guan Yu's previous instructions. The potatoes and wet soil in the corner were built up layer by layer, like a cross-section of a black forest cake.

Guan Yu started planting purple cabbage seeds according to the planting instructions.

The robot Doudou is responsible for hoeing and watering the ground. In order to satisfy the purple cabbage villain's wish of "not being in the same field as potatoes", Guan Yu specially asked Doudou to pick a piece of yellow land that had never been planted with potatoes for reclamation.

Because the planting of purple cabbage requires seedlings to be raised first and then transplanted, the area of ​​reclaimed land does not need to be very large, and Doudou can be completed quickly.Guan Yu held Tangtang's little hand, and evenly scattered the deep purple purple cabbage seeds in the brown-black moist ground.

Early the next morning, the seedling field was full of purple cabbage seedlings like purple flowers.

Doudou transplanted the purple cabbage seedlings into another neat field that is horizontal and vertical, so that they can have enough space to grow.

The growth rate of purple cabbage is similar to that of potatoes, and the purple flowers in the field are getting bigger and bigger, which is in sharp contrast with the green potato seedlings next to them.

Two days later, the potatoes in Drew Star's official store were officially on the shelves.

The outer box of the potato is printed with a picture of a potato villain with folded hands. In the first three months, the half-price sale is only 40 stars per piece.

Potatoes can be boiled in water, and one potato can meet the energy and nutrition required by the human body for a day.If you want to try Paleo Earth recipes, you can jump to the link to buy dishes and seasonings.

Under the product page, there are picture examples of ancient earth potato recipes, such as fried potato chips, shredded potatoes, etc., and links to new kitchen utensils, tableware and seasonings on the official store.

After the potatoes were put on the shelves, they quickly attracted the attention of people on Drew.They originally lived on other ordinary planets, and they knew that the ancient earth ingredients of the Milky Way Company were expensive, and they were by no means affordable by ordinary people.

Now the potatoes sold in Drew Star’s official store are bigger and cheaper than those of Galaxy Company, and they are not as expensive as advanced nutrient solution? !

The nutrient solution in the official store is twice as expensive as other planets, so there should be no problem with such cheap potatoes, right?

Some people don't dare to try it, worrying about the bad effects of eating it; some people feel that they have taken advantage of it, so they bought a potato by the way when purchasing other items; Those who saw the new ancient earth ingredients were very excited, and quickly placed an order to buy several and planned to cook by themselves.

The sales of potatoes gradually increased, and a total of 500 potatoes were sold on the first day on the shelves.

That night, the suspended bus station in the H12 area.

In the quiet night, a vague figure walked forward with heavy steps.In the desert, two or three of the houses in a row were lit with warm yellow lights, like a lighthouse on a rock in the sea.

As he got closer, the figure seemed to have seen something, and suddenly accelerated, almost trotting towards a door.

A half-meter-high and half-meter-wide cardboard box stood in front of the door. In the darkness, the figure immediately picked up the cardboard box, opened the door and walked in.

With a sound of "click", the dark room was immediately lit up, and the figure finally became clear.

It was a boy with a height of about 1.7 meters [-], with a thin body, half-length short hair soaked in sweat stuck to his smooth and white forehead, a little embarrassed but not detracting from his delicate temperament.

After he saw the words on the package, the corners of his mouth raised higher, he put the package on the table, and cut off the tape on it with the room key.

He opened a small white paper box inside, took out a big and round potato, and stared at it with obsessive eyes.Regardless of the little dirt on it, he leaned closer and took a deep breath.

At the first smell, the smell was a bit astringent, like earthy smell, but immediately after, the unique fresh fragrance of potato fruit rushed into the brain from the nasal cavity.

The boy's eyes lit up suddenly, and he quickly ran to the operating table in the living room with the potatoes, and began to rinse them with running water.

On the operating table next to the sink are electrical appliances such as kettles, induction cookers, and ovens, as well as some stacked pots and pans and cutting boards and knives.After the boy washed the potatoes, he washed the wok, cutting board, plates and chopsticks before turning around and opening the refrigerator.

There are several bottles of nutrient solution on the refrigerator door, and the four upper shelves and storage boxes are all filled with transparent glass vials of the same shape and size. Some of them are black, red or yellow liquid, and some are of different sizes and shapes. There are different granular objects, red, white, green, brown and black.

The boy picked out less than half a bottle of yellow clear liquid and a bottle of white powder. He hesitated in the blue light of the refrigerator with his handsome side face before taking out another bottle of red powder.

Peanut oil, salt, chili powder, all work together.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into thin slices for later use. After heating the flat iron pan on the induction cooker, pour half a thumb-sized amount of oil to moisten the bottom of the pan, and then stick the potato slices tightly to the bottom of the pan with chopsticks.

The firepower of the induction cooker is very strong, and the burnt aroma of fried potatoes slowly comes out.The boy stared intently at the iron pan, sprinkled a thin layer of salt, skillfully flipped the potato slices over with chopsticks and fried them for a while before sprinkled a little bit of chili powder.

Turn off the heat, put the pan on the plate, and the steaming fried potato chips are ready.

He placed the fried potato chips in the middle of the table, adjusted the angle and took a few photos with his brain, and finally moved a piece of potato chips with his chopsticks and put them in his mouth.

"Huh..." The boy was almost scalded, he began to chew while exhaling to cool down, and was shocked by the delicious taste in his mouth.

The potato slices were slightly burnt on one side due to the high temperature, and the crispy texture was perfectly blended with the sweet, salty, spicy taste. He couldn't help but close his eyes and feel the wonderful taste in his mouth with his heart.

After a while, he quickly turned on his brain and boarded a forum called "Ancient Earth Gastronomy", and posted a new post:

[Second Kill Yinhe Company's new big potatoes, the fried potato chips I made are so delicious that the children next door are crying! ! 】

The author has something to say: Sorry for keeping everyone waiting, I love you all! !
