"Yes, it needs to be mixed with mud. It should not be too thin or too thick."

Upon hearing this, the Supreme Emperor quickly said: "Don't worry, Ni and I are very good, we will definitely get it just right."

When Li Sirou saw him leaving, she saw Chen Tao and said, "Turn it over and massage it again."

Chen Taosheng kneaded the chicken helplessly and crushed the wild onions into pieces.

When Gu Chenrui saw this scene, he quickly left and went to the creek. He was afraid that if he looked at it again, he would lose his appetite later.

"Okay."

After Li Sirou finished speaking, she carried the wooden basin to the stream.

The marinating time is a little shorter, but it's getting late now. Once the grilling is done and eaten, it's almost time to go back.

When the Supreme Emperor saw Li Sirou carrying a wooden basin over, he pointed at the soil and asked, "Girl Sirou, this is almost done."

Li Sirou nodded, "Okay."

After she finished speaking, she placed the wooden basin next to the mud and opened the washed taro leaves.

Lotus leaves have the best taste, but there are no lotus leaves here, so taro leaves can only be used instead.

After she laid out the taro leaves, she placed the chicken inside and wrapped it.

After wrapping several layers, she began to spread mud on the taro leaves. When the taro leaves were no longer visible, she began to wrap the other two again.

Once done, she placed the three mud balls and began to put firewood on them to make a fire.

Gu Chenrui saw this scene and asked, "Is it something to bake?"

Li Sirou shook her head and chuckled, "You'll know in a moment."

She burned it for a while, and after some ashes came out, she put the taro in and covered it with ashes.

"Okay, just wait now."

Chen Tao looked at the fire in front of him curiously and asked, "How long will this take?"

Li Sirou pondered for a while and said, "About half a quarter of an hour."

After she finished speaking, she looked at the Supreme Emperor and said, "If the fire is too low, add more. If it is too high, reduce it a little. When the mud on this side dries, remember to turn it over."

The Supreme Emperor nodded and asked doubtfully: "What are you going to do?"

"I just saw a beautiful camellia tree over there, and I want to dig it back."

When the Supreme Emperor heard this, he laughed and said, "You are a little girl, what kind of heavy work do you do?"

After he finished speaking, he looked at Gu Chenrui and said, "Brother, go and help girl Sirou. Don't be in a hurry. You can dig slowly."

Seeing him like that, Li Sirou rolled her eyes speechlessly, and was complaining about the Supreme Emperor crazily in her heart.

His desire to bring himself and Gu Chenrui together was written all over his face, and he didn't even look at it. He was only a little older, so if he was in love now, it must be a puppy love, right?

When Li Sirou thought of the word puppy love, goosebumps suddenly appeared all over her body. She rubbed her arm, shook her head and went over there.

Seeing her like that, Gu Chenrui said, "But it's cold. I'll ask Lin Yun to bring you the cloak."

When Li Sirou heard this, she turned around and saw him taking something from his body and preparing to launch it into the sky.

When Li Sirou saw the flare, she quickly stepped forward to stop him and said, "I'm not cold."

"But I just saw you trembling with cold."

Li Sirou rubbed her eyebrows and explained, "I'm not cold, I'm scared by your brother."

Gu Chenrui thought of what his brother said just now, nodded and said, "It's indeed a bit scary."

Seeing his serious look, Li Sirou curled her lips and said, "Let's go, dig the tree for me."

After saying that, he walked towards the camellia tree he just saw.

After walking for almost five minutes, they arrived. Looking at the tree covered with camellias in front of them, Li Sirou turned to look at Gu Chenrui, "That's the one."

Gu Chenrui looked at it and started digging with a hoe. Seeing his skillful look, Li Sirou asked curiously: "Have you ever used a hoe before?"

"I have used it. When I can't eat, I will take my hoe to the mountains to dig for edible food."

Li Sirou was stunned and asked doubtfully: "Are you still going to have nothing to eat?"

Gu Chenrui paused slightly and explained: "Yes.

I went to the border when I was thirteen years old. During those years, the border was not very peaceful. Coupled with the climate, there was often nothing to eat. "

Without fighting, the border soldiers would receive very little military pay. In addition, the new emperor had just stabilized the court, and there was no money on hand to allocate to the soldiers.

So I was sent to the border to see if there was anything edible. "

Li Sirou frowned and asked, "Did you find it?"

"Well, I found it, it's the sweet potato we are eating now."

After Gu Chenrui finished speaking, he turned to look at Li Sirou and said, "I also bought it from an overseas person with blue eyes.

He originally thought that people from the Central Plains would buy it, so he brought a lot of it, but when he arrived, he found out that when the people saw that it had blue eyes, they all ran away.

The sweet potatoes had sprouted, but he hadn't sold them yet. I was looking for food everywhere at that time, and happened to meet him. After listening to his instructions on how to grow them, I bought them and wanted to give them a try. "

Li Sirou: "So, the sweet potatoes came here from the border?"

Gu Chenrui nodded, "Yes.

In fact, I don't know if what he said is true at all. I just want to give it a try. What if it succeeds? "

When Li Sirou heard this, she laughed and said, "Fortunately you bought it at that time. The yield of this sweet potato is very high."

When Gu Chenrui heard what Li Sirou said, he was stunned for a moment and then asked doubtfully: "Is it very high?"

Li Sirou nodded, "Yes, one acre of land can yield about two thousand kilograms.

My family just planted some, and after a while, we will harvest and see how much we can get. "

When Gu Chenrui heard that it was more than two thousand kilograms, he was stunned. He said in disbelief: "You said that one acre can harvest more than two thousand kilograms?"

Li Sirou nodded, "Yes, at least two thousand catties."

Li Sirou calculated it in her mind and nodded affirmatively, "Well, I made an estimate and it won't be lower than this number, but the specific amount will not be known until harvest time."

Gu Chenrui looked at Li Sirou and said, "Now, even if you are farming, you can only harvest 500 kilograms from one acre.

An ordinary family would be considered good if they could receive one hundred catties per acre of land. "

Li Sirou's eyelids jumped sharply when she heard the numbers reported by Gu Chenrui. Sure enough, when she raised her eyes, she saw Gu Chenrui's face that was hesitant to speak.

Li Sirou rubbed her eyebrows and said, "I understand. This planting method is different from what you grow. Let's wait until I finish harvesting and see the yield."

When Gu Chenrui heard this, a smile flashed in his eyes, but he quickly hid it and said, "Xiao Rou'er, do you know?

If the common people can receive two hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes from one acre of land, then the common people will no longer have to starve to death.
