Good luck and fortune come to the end of the world, the boss brings prosperity to the whole village

"Hey, little brother, I'd like to ask, what are potatoes? Can they be eaten?"

The soldier leader struggled to squeeze next to Song Jixiang and Xiao Ruyi and asked with curiosity on his face.

Since she was always out and about, Song Jixiang always wore men's clothing that was convenient for movement, and her appearance was very low-key and simple. In addition, she was born with delicate features and a petite figure, so it was common for people to call her "little brother".

However, although the soldier leader looked silly, he was actually very clear-headed. He had just watched the old village chief come over to ask Song Jixiang for his opinion, and the surrounding villagers were also looking at the boy eagerly, obviously waiting for her to reply! So, this ordinary-looking boy must be of extraordinary status!

Just now, when Song Jixiang read out the names of a long list of green vegetables, the soldier leader keenly caught one of the new words he had never heard of before: potato.

Adhering to the principle of asking when you don't understand, he immediately puffed up his squinting eyes full of curiosity and stared at Song Jixiang closely, expecting the other party to answer his doubts.

Before Song Jixiang could answer, a little boy suddenly rushed out from behind him. He tilted his head, took Song Jixiang's arm and said, "Sister, sister, let me answer him!"

"Okay, then let our smart and lovely Koi Xiaoqi tell him the answer." Song Jixiang rubbed his brother's hair lovingly with a gentle smile on his face.

"That's not a thing, it's a kind of vegetable. Of course it can be eaten, and it's very delicious! Whether it's used to make braised pork, stir-fried, or grilled, it will be especially delicious. Especially when you eat it with rich and mellow gravy, the taste... I can eat two bowls of rice in one go!"

"...That's right. If you evenly sprinkle some of the secret seasoning I prepared by myself on it, the unique flavor will be simply amazing. It will definitely arouse your cravings from ten days ago..." After listening carefully to Song Xiaoqi's words, Yan Nan couldn't wait to take over the conversation and add.

The two of them talked back and forth, making the tall and mighty soldier leader swallow his saliva, and his already small eyes narrowed into slits.

He rubbed his hands vigorously and asked with curiosity in his eyes: "What does it look like? Can I take a look?" They have been trapped in this desolate land for a long time. Could this be a new variety carefully cultivated by the Ministry of Agriculture?

Song Xiaoqi raised his finger and pointed forward, saying cheerfully, "There are a lot of them..."

The soldier leader was obviously stunned for several seconds, and then he burst into laughter, even crying. He pointed at Song Xiaoqi with a mocking look on his face, and laughed and scolded loudly: "You little brat, I actually took your words seriously, I didn't expect you to be a little liar!"

"I never lie. My sister said that children who lie will grow a long nose!" Song Xiaoqi stood straight and looked at the soldier leader with firm eyes.

The other party snorted coldly: "You still say you are not a little liar, I have walked back and forth on this road countless times, and I can tell what is around me with my eyes closed. You said there are potatoes ahead, you might as well say there is gold ahead! Do you think I am a three-year-old child who is so easy to fool?"

Zhao Daniu led a group of children and pushed the head of the soldiers away, shouting at the top of his voice: "You ignorant barbarians, our Xiao Qi is protected by a koi fish, and everything he says is absolutely true. If you don't believe it, you are stupid and ignorant!"

The group of children made faces at him, then followed closely behind Song Xiaoqi, running a few meters ahead...

There were indeed many small bumps on the sandy ground. The children swarmed forward, took out the small daggers they carried with them, and started digging accurately.

Yan Cheng and his companions made a lot of small and exquisite weapons in their spare time, but they were all taken away by these children.

The adults in every household did not object to this. Since they started practicing martial arts, their ideas have changed a lot. In the past, they always thought it was very dangerous for children to carry sharp weapons, but now they think that carrying some small weapons is not a bad thing. They may come in handy at critical moments to protect the safety of themselves and their families.

Zhao Daniu picked up a clod of earth that was bigger than his fist and shouted, "Look, I dug up a big one..."

The other children were not willing to give up and dug up a lot of them one after another.

The soldier leader came over in a few steps, faster than a monkey, and shouted: "These are potatoes! There are so many... Can we eat all of these?..."

No one ignored him.

He was not angry. He started doggy paddling with his hands and soon dug out a dozen clods of earth of different sizes.

When I looked closer, I found that they were in strange shapes, some looked like eggs, some like stones, and some like gourds...

The soldier leader couldn't help but reach out and touch one of the potatoes. He felt that its surface was very rough and there was some dirt on it. He thought to himself: Although these potatoes don't look very good, I wonder if they really taste as delicious as Xiao Qi said?

He was very fast, but he still couldn't catch up with those kids. It was because they were so many people!

Humph, bullying him because he is weak and alone? With so many edible vegetables, he definitely can't miss this opportunity.

So, he ran towards the city gate without hesitation, shouting loudly for all the soldiers to hurry over and dig potatoes.

A soldier asked: "Captain, this city gate is not guarded?"

"What the hell, you've been guarding for more than ten years, have you ever seen an outsider come in? Get out of here, go dig potatoes for me, whether you can go to the toilet smoothly tomorrow depends on you..."

"Okay, boss!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

At this moment, Song Xiaoqi suddenly let out an excited shout and pointed in another direction, "Everyone, look! There seems to be something over there..."

Hearing this, everyone looked in the direction he pointed. As expected, there were many lumps of earth rising abruptly in the sand not far away.

Seeing this scene, the children cheered and jumped for joy. Like a group of explorers who had discovered treasure, they happily ran towards the sand.

They heard from Yan Nan that if this thing is cut thinly, it can be made into potato chips, which are said to be crunchy and very delicious...

The leader of the soldiers saw this and showed no weakness. He still couldn't believe that he couldn't beat a bunch of half-grown children. Humph!

He waved his hand and led his men to follow closely. "Brothers, if you want to keep your chrysanthemums, dig hard and dig hard!"

Seeing that these soldiers had no moral principles and were actually snatching food from a group of children, the people in the camp naturally would not let their own children suffer, so men and women, young and old, all joined in the battle.

With more people than them, who are they afraid of?

They held various tools and worked hard.

The children had an even greater pleasure; they ran and played in the sand, digging potatoes and comparing with each other to see who had dug bigger and more.

The whole scene was very lively, with laughter and joy. Everyone was immersed in this joyful atmosphere, forgetting the fear and anxiety they had when they first arrived here.

As time went on, more and more potatoes were dug out of the ground. These potatoes were of different sizes and shapes, but without exception, they became delicacies in people's eyes.

People carefully collected the potatoes they dug out, filling baskets and bags one after another. Even the soldiers had a good harvest...
