Li Er's most important thing now is to be eager to verify whether the potato can really be eaten.
Compared with this matter, other state affairs are no longer worth mentioning. Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are naturally the same. Compared with the grain that can produce 20 stones per mu, are other things still a matter?
Li Er immediately ordered the forbidden guards in the palace to carefully return the harvested potatoes to the palace and arrange special personnel to guard them.
After a little arrangement, Li Er led a group of palace guards to Dingzhou village, Huxian county.
Their crotch is full of steeds. It takes only half an hour to run from Chang'an city to Dingzhou village.
As no one knew in advance that Li forgetful worry would lead Li Er and several big men to visit, Li Heng, the old housekeeper, was startled and hurried forward to meet him.
Li forgot to worry and pulled him aside. He whispered a few orders, but Li Heng frowned and shook his head.
"Lang Jun, I'm afraid... I'm afraid I can't do it? It's a saint's kiss. How can I eat it?" Li Heng waved his hand again and again.
Li forgot to worry and stared: "don't talk nonsense. Let you do it. Ask Niu Wu to go to Huxian county and find Yang Zui. Yang Zui will always give you this face."
Seeing his husband's insistence, Li Heng had no choice but to nod his head, agree and arrange for himself.
The two pots of potatoes in the Li family, like those in the Si Nong temple, produced a total of about five kilograms of potatoes. Such a stable yield finally convinced Li Er and others that the potato was indeed high-yield. Now the only doubt is whether the potato can really eat?
Li forgets to worry. In fact, he is reluctant to eat potatoes. The five kilograms of potatoes harvested at home are less than 20 in total. If they are used for planting, they can become more than 100 kilograms of potatoes when they are harvested next season.
However, Li forgets to worry also knows that it is impossible for them to vigorously promote it if they don't let Li Er taste potatoes personally and are sure that it can be eaten and is very delicious.
So even if he was reluctant, Li forgot to worry about taking out half of the potatoes to have a good meal and let Li Er and them see the delicious potatoes.
Of course, he would never admit that he was greedy!
The beautiful boss heard that she wanted to eat potatoes and volunteered to cook.
She is also reluctant to take such precious potatoes to the kitchen ladies in the house. If she wastes them, it will be a sin.
Even for Li forget worry, it is a great waste to take a few potatoes to roast and cook them directly.
However, it is necessary to intuitively show Li Er and them the edible value of potatoes. Li Qieyou could only endure heartache and carefully selected four smaller potatoes for people to cook.
In the reception room of Li's house, Li Er and Fang Xuanling drank tea and waited anxiously for Li forgetful to make the potato and present it.
Even though Li forgot to worry repeatedly that the potatoes were edible, not only delicious, but also full, but they didn't witness it and taste it in person, they still didn't believe it in their hearts.
Wait left and right, finally see Li forget worry carefully, carrying a tray, came in.
"Hey, uncle and gentlemen, wait a minute. The dishes made of potatoes are still cooking and will take some time. However, my nephew ordered someone to bake some potatoes and they can be eaten directly. Uncle and gentlemen can see how the potatoes taste first."
In the tray, there are only four potatoes the size of an egg. Li Er and they can see that this is the potato dug out of the soil before. They just wash it and bake it.
"Ziyou, this potato is so easy to eat? Just throw it into a pot and cook it?" Li Er still doesn't believe it. After all, whether it's rice or wheat, it's not so easy to eat.
"Hey, it's natural. My uncle will know when he tastes it. Of course, potatoes taste better when they are used to make dishes. These potatoes are really good things. They can not only be eaten directly as food, but also be cooked. They are very delicious."
Cheng Yaojin shouted discontentedly, "Ziyou, how can you be stingy? How can you eat just these four potatoes? Isn't it filling your teeth?"
Li forgot to worry and turned his eyes: "Uncle Cheng, I still love these four. Do you know that if these potatoes are kept for planting, these four potatoes can become 70 or 80. If it is not for my uncles to believe that these potatoes are really edible food, I can't even give up these four."
Li Er said with a smile, "Ziyou is right. This potato is very precious now. If it can be used as food, we will be guilty today."
Fang Xuanling looked at the four potatoes and asked curiously, "Ziyou, how do you cook these potatoes?"
"Mr. Fang, it's not cooking. It's just simply roasting and cooking them. These two are baked directly into firewood. These two are cooked in water in a pot. They can be eaten directly. It's very simple."
He also pointed to a small salt in the tray: "uncle can dip potatoes in some salt, which is more delicious."
After Li forgot to explain, he picked up a knife, cut the four potatoes into small pieces, and then asked Li Er to taste them.
When Fang Xuanling and others were still looking at the cut potatoes carefully, they saw that Cheng Yaojin was impatient to grab a piece of potatoes and throw it into his mouth.
The old man chewed a few times, but his eyes brightened: "fragrant! The potato is soft and fragrant. It's delicious!"
Li Er and his wife heard the speech, but they couldn't continue their research. They stretched out their chopsticks, picked up a piece of potato and chewed it carefully.
"Yes, the potatoes really taste good and delicious."
"It's soft, smooth and has no peculiar smell at all. Your majesty, it's really edible and delicious!"
Fang Xuanling sighed again, "I never thought that this potato could be eaten even with skin. There is no waste at all."
Li forgot to worry and laughed in his heart. However, he deliberately didn't peel the potatoes, and these officials of the Tang Dynasty, including Li Er, ate the skins directly.
Of course, potato skin is not inedible, but it tastes slightly worse.
Du Ruhui suddenly grew up and bowed to Li Ershen: "Your Majesty, it's really great. If this potato can really produce 20 stones per mu, what a grand occasion it will be? There will be no food worries in our Tang Dynasty and no hungry people! Congratulations to your majesty and your majesty!"
"Congratulations, your majesty!" Fang Xuanling and Cheng Yaojin naturally got up immediately and bowed to Li Erhe.
Li Er was also happy to laugh: "ha ha, Aiqing, please get up quickly. Speaking of it, it's all the work of Ziyou! I never thought that there was grain with a yield of 20 stones per mu in the world. Ziyou, tell me, how should I reward you?"
Cheng Yaojin also laughed and said, "Your Majesty, Ziyou has made many contributions. I want Lao Cheng to say that it's not too much to seal him as a Duke! Duke Fang and Duke Du, are you right?"
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui naturally laughed and nodded in agreement with Cheng Yaojin's words. In fact, it's not too much for the young man to be the founding Duke.
Li Er nodded slightly: "your words are reasonable. I said before that I would reward Ziyou. Now Ziyou offers crops such as potatoes. It is also reasonable to grant the Duke."
Li forgets to worry but is a sweat, imperial seal a Mao's country Duke?
How can Li Er marry a beautiful boss if he wants to be granted the imperial crown by Li Er?
At the beginning, empress Chang sun wanted to marry him. After being prevaricated, Li forget worry realized that his title was too high before marrying his beautiful boss into his house.
It would be really troublesome if he wanted to marry a beautiful boss as his wife.
Kaiguo County Bo he is already very satisfied. Li Er wants to crown his country now. I'm afraid Li forgets his worries and can only cry.
"Uncle, I'm young now. Don't give me any more titles." Li forgot to worry quickly and said, "if uncle must give me a reward, I'd better give me some fields."
