In the wasteland.
At the maturity stage, the stems and leaves of potatoes have turned yellow, which means they are faintly dry. Yu Ci didn't wait long until the potato stems and leaves were completely dry. Grabbing the plant and pulling it out vigorously, the thin roots emerged from the soil, gurgling and pulling out a pile of potatoes. These potatoes are big. When compared, they are a bit bigger than Yu Ci's fist. And each plant has at least five or six growths, which makes Yu Ci very satisfied.
After the previous cucumbers, Yu Ci has figured out several characteristics of the wasteland. The yield of the crops grown here is not high, but no matter what variety it is, it will bring out its taste to the extreme, and also the nutrients in it.
so-
It is reasonable to raise the price appropriately, right
While thinking about it, Yu Ci happily pulled out potatoes. The soil here is soft and there is absolutely no need for hoeing tools.
Yu Ci pulled more and more vigorously, and even pulled Fu Nian, who was cheering up, to the front, pointed to the ground on one side, and said: "Do me a favor, please drink Coke. It's iced."
Fu Nian stared into Heidou's big eyes, "Really?"
Yu Ci nodded.
Coke can cost a few dollars.
But ordinary Coke is also a distant treasure to Fu Nian. After getting Yu Ci's consent, Fu Nian flapped her wings and burrowed into the ground without saying a word. The sharp beak holds a string of stems and leaves in its mouth, and when it is pulled out hard, the potato immediately rolls out.
With the joint efforts of Yu Ci and Fu Nian, the potato plants in an acre of land were quickly cleaned up. Potatoes piled high on the soft soil. Yu Ci and Fu Nian sat back to back on the ground, Yu Ci tapped his sore legs and asked, "In the future, there will be a lot of usable land for development here, how can we both be so busy? Can you find some agricultural tools or something?"
Fu Nian was also very tired. Hearing Yu Ci's question, he answered vaguely twice, and found a comfortable position before whispering: "You can buy it directly from the system. But it's still early, and the system won't sell it to you." .”
"I brought it in from outside."
Fu Nian: "Are you going to drive those agricultural machines to the storage room?"
Yu Ci: "..." That's exactly what he said.
The gate of his villa is not that big.
Yu Ci frowned, and after resting, he found several snakeskin bags, bent down and put all the potatoes in the bags, and dragged them slowly out of the wasteland. The storage time of potatoes is longer than that of ordinary vegetables, and he is not worried that the potatoes will go bad. Before leaving, he told Fu Nian that he would pick the remaining acre of land at night.
Yu Ci kept some potatoes for himself and the neighbors around him. It was Xia Yiming who opened the door today, so it was no surprise to see Yu Ci appear with a bag of potatoes. Recently, Xia Yiming found that the name 'Yu Ci' appeared in his ears more frequently, not only from the students when he was walking on the road, but also from his colleagues when he returned to the office.
After all, the cucumbers grown by Yu Ci are really delicious. And after several times, Xia Yiming also knew that Yu Ci's cucumbers were sold out, and it was time to sell potatoes next.
"Is this a freshly dug potato?" I opened the bag and saw that the round potatoes were still covered with mud.
Seeing that Xia Yiming knew everything, Yu Ci felt a little surprised. He hummed with a smile, and handed the pocket to Xia Yiming, "I dug it not long ago, and I want to give some to the neighbors around."
"How much?"
"No need." Yu Ci quickly waved his hand. Although he and the Xia family's professors don't match each other's majors, it's fate, and Professor Xia once helped him. Consider these cucumbers and potatoes as a thank you gift.
Xia Yiming pursed his lips, stared at Yu Ci with his eyes under the lens for two seconds, and suddenly said, "Wait a minute."
Two minutes later, Xia Yiming came out with a bag, and handed it back just like Yu Ci handed it to him just now, and his tone became a lot gentler under Yu Ci's slightly puzzled expression: "This is from my friend yesterday." The fruit tastes very good, so take it as a gift in return."
"Actually, you don't have to be so polite..." Yu Ci was flattered all of a sudden.
"Take it, otherwise my family won't dare to accept your things easily in the future. By the way, the cucumber tastes really good. I think these potatoes are not bad."
When Yu Ci returned home with a bag of fresh fruit, Xia Yiming was still replaying the image of Xia Yiming saying that cucumbers were delicious. The students of the law school must never have imagined that their Professor Xia would be so gentle, it was so rare.
When I got home, it was past three o'clock in the afternoon. Yu Ci stared at the potatoes in the kitchen for a while, took out his mobile phone and sent a message to the neighbor next door: Do you want to make a dinner appointment today
Yu Ci held his phone and waited for five minutes, but Qi Huai didn't reply, so he was not in a hurry, so he put down his phone and started thinking about tonight's potato feast.
There are many ways to eat potatoes, which is quite confusing.
Thinking about it, the phone ding-dong echoed. Yu Ci turned on the phone and saw that it was Qi Huai's message: "Okay, do you need me to bring something back?"
A few seconds later, Qi Huai said again: "Jian Yuanqing said he wanted to come, you can refuse."
Yu Ci laughed. This guy Qi Huai really went too far. It's still early now, and he has a lot of preparation time, so there's no need for Qi Huai to waste time buying other dishes after get off work. After thinking about it, he told the truth, and then took his mobile phone and went to the nearby large supermarket to buy vegetables.
Yu Ci was fast, bought some beef, other vegetables and seasonings, and then walked back with a big bag. When I left the supermarket, I ran into a few girls from the same school. The girls were obviously very surprised to see him in the supermarket. Seeing what Yu Ci was carrying in his hand, they couldn't help but stare: "School grass, you can cook?"
Yu Ci smiled: "If you live alone, you can know a little bit."
The girl covered her mouth and muttered in a low voice: "I know how to grow and cook vegetables, and I'm pretty good-looking, and I'm good at painting, what kind of fairy is this!"
The companion next to him also nodded like a chicken pecking rice, "School grass, are you really not going to debut?"
Yu Ci frowned, feeling a little funny, "That's unnecessary."
The girl sighed when she heard the words, and seemed to feel a little regretful, "It would be great if you made your debut as a school girl, and you can sell more vegetables you grow yourself."
On the way home, Yu Ci's head was completely surrounded by the girl's words 'sell more vegetables you grow yourself'. Nothing piques Yu Ci's interest more than increasing his income. Although his brother is powerful and his family has a lot of money, he can't help being so pretentious.
Before cooking, Yu Ci searched for some information on the Internet, and suddenly an idea came to his mind. He hooked his lips, downloaded a live broadcast software, and quickly registered an account, classifying himself as a 'life circle'.
After turning on the live broadcast, he slowly started preparing dinner for tonight.
Since I bought tomato beef, let's have a tomato and potato beef stew, and then fry some snacks such as French fries and chips. Yu Ci has lived alone since junior high school, and his cooking skills can be called excellent in the past few years of training.
Cut the beef into pieces and blanch them in water, then put them into a pot, add water and a dry seasoning and bring to a boil. After simmering on low heat for more than half an hour, add the potatoes and tomatoes that have been cut into pieces and blanched.
When he had some free time, Yu Ci glanced at his phone.
All new anchors will face a problem, that is, there is no audience and no fans. But Yu Ci is not in a hurry. His original intention of doing the live broadcast is to sell the vegetables he grows, but he is quite self-aware and knows that it is not so easy to sell vegetables in this way.
If no one is looking at it, just wait, anyway, it will waste some mobile phone power.
Put the tomato and potato beef stew on one side, and Yu Ci cut some potato chips and potato sticks and fried them in the pan. After re-frying, take out the French fries and chips, put them in a colander to drain the oil, and he started to prepare other dishes.
At five twenty, Yu Ci glanced at his phone.
Finally, a few viewers scattered in the live broadcast room.
"Why are my fucking host hands so pretty?"
"To be honest, it's these hands that let me see the present."
"What does the anchor do? Are the potato chips fried by yourself as delicious as those outside?"
"This beef with tomato and potatoes looks good."
"Ah, I used to like eating potatoes, but recent potatoes don't taste as good as before."
Yu Ci looked at the bullet screen and smiled, the camera could only capture his hands, he smiled, and the sound fell into the sound hole, which immediately stunned the audience in front of the live broadcast room.
Yu Ci replied casually: "I grow the potatoes myself, they taste very good. If you like potatoes, I can give you some to try."
"Hastily, I don't want to eat potatoes, I just want to see what the host looks like!"
"Damn it, my phantom limbs are stiff."
"All the dishes are tasteless at this moment."
"Can you really send potatoes?"
Yu Ci: "It can be delivered, but the postage is at your own expense. If you need it, you can private message me in the background. If you like to eat, you can also come to me to buy it later."
As soon as the voice fell, a barrage flashed across the screen: Oh, it turns out that the anchor is doing business like this.
Yu Ci was also straightforward, too lazy to hide it, "Yeah, after all, growing potatoes is quite tiring."
Ever since Yu Ci spoke, there have been a lot more bullet screens in the live broadcast room. All the dishes were prepared, and Yu Ci had nothing to do so he chatted with Danmaku. After chatting for about ten minutes, when the doorbell rang, he was stunned and hurried to open the door.
Seeing Qi Huai and Jian Yuanqing standing outside the door, Yu Ci hurriedly welcomed them in, "Sit down first, I'll turn off the live broadcast."
When Jian Yuanqing heard the word 'live broadcast', he was a little confused. Subconsciously followed Yu Ci into the kitchen like a little tail, saw Yu Ci say to the phone, "Sorry, my friends are here, I'll end the broadcast today, see you next time", he blinked, Curiously asked: "Yu Ci, why are you still playing live broadcast?"
Yu Ci waved his hand: "I'm thinking about cooking live and selling potatoes."
Jian Yuanqing is a smart person, and immediately thought of what Yu Ci meant by selling potatoes. He nodded quickly, and suddenly remembered something and asked: "Which live broadcast platform are you on, and what's your name?"
Yu Ci didn't do what he thought, and replied truthfully: "Moby Whale's live broadcast, the name is Yu."
Jian Yuanqing groaned, his eyes seemed to pass by Qi Huai who was standing on the side and listened to the whole conversation, and he showed a meaningful smile, "I think your idea is quite good, and you will definitely be able to sell a lot of vegetables in the future."
"I would like to borrow your good words." Yu Ci smiled, beckoned the two to sit down, and moved all the dishes to the dining room.
