95 Call me Yue’er
Most importantly, she had observed that the area around their house was all sandy land, which was most suitable for the growth of potatoes and sweet potatoes.
“Will it work? After the land is cleared, we have to pay a grain tax. What if we can’t sell the chilies for money…” Liu Shi was a little worried.
This chili was good, but it wasn’t a species of this world. When they grew it, they wouldn’t be able to sell it if others didn’t know the benefits of the chili.
As for the potatoes and sweet potatoes, she was confident in them. These two were obviously edible and good-looking, so they should be able to be sold.
“Don’t worry, I am confident!” Lin Xiaoyue said with confidence.
Chili was popular all over the world in the 21st century, and she was completely confident that she could make a name for herself with chili condiments.
She didn’t have enough chilies on hand. Otherwise, she would have asked Chef Liu of Ruyi restaurant if he wanted to work with her.
Even if it didn’t work out, there was a market in town for her to sell them.
The potatoes and sweet potatoes were also her secret weapons. In ancient times, the production of food was low, but these two crops grow fast and are very filling.
Not only could potatoes be used as a staple food, but they could also be used to cook with other ingredients. There are so many ways to cook potatoes, like frying and roasting. Whether they were used as side dishes or main courses, they were deeply loved by the Chinese people.
If you cut the potatoes into thin slices and then deep-fried them, they could even turn into potato chips. Potato chips were a snack that had conquered almost all of mankind.
As for the sweet potatoes, both the vines and the roots were edible. Not only is it food for humans, but also livestock. Furthermore, sweet potatoes could also be made into snacks. In her previous life, when she was young, her grandmother made sweet potato strips for her, and they tasted very good.
The planting was simple, and the sweet potato vines grew close to the ground, which could coexist with many crops.
For example, one could grow beans, chilies, and even corn in the sweet potato field. This was because they did not need sunlight, while the sweet potato vines were the opposite. This way, two crops could be planted in one piece of land, saving land while not reducing production.
Just thinking about it made her want to buy land and start farming immediately.
She shouldn’t rush it. She should take it step by step after the house was built.
After the meal, Liu Shi washed the dishes.
After the family finished washing up, Li Xiao carried Xiao Qing to the shed while the others rested in the house.
The next day.
Lin Xiaoyue called Li Xiao early in the morning and went out on an ox-cart.
“The main road is up ahead. Can you teach me how to ride an ox-cart?” Lin Xiaoyue looked at Li Xiao, who was beside her.
She realized that the man’s side profile was also very charming.
“Yes.” Li Xiao responded. Being stared at by Lin Xiaoyue, he felt a little uncomfortable.
“Did you like any girl before?” Suddenly, Lin Xiaoyue asked.
“No, I didn’t.”
“Were there many girls who liked you?”
Li Xiao paused.
“No,” With such a face, those women would be afraid. Who would like him?
“Not a lot, or is there no one at all?”
“There’s no one.” Li Xiao replied. There was no fluctuation of emotion in his tone.
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes seemed to be glowing.
“How can there be no one? Am I not someone?” She was smiling brightly.
Li Xiao froze. His face began to heat up.
“Hehe, what color do you like, Li Xiao?”
“What do you like to eat, Li Xiao?”
“You’ve never called me by my name.”
“X-Xiaoyue.”
She acted coquettishly, “call me Yue’er…”
“Yue…Yue’er”
