After more than 120 days of careful cultivation, it was finally time for Gu Shen's first trial planting of sweet potatoes in ancient times to accept the results.

During the same autumn harvest season, the nearby villages were harvesting wheat and rice, but the villagers of Shuiyuan Village gathered in front of the two acres of farmland belonging to Gu Shen to wait and see.

With the support of various powerful fertilizers from the Rich Rich System, Gu Shen knew that this time the sweet potato planting would be successful, but for some reason, when the shovel dug it down, he still unconsciously became nervous.

As the first melon vine was lifted, a huge and pure-colored sweet potato was pulled out.The villagers first screamed, and then held their breath tacitly.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Shen continued to pull the melon vine and lifted up the inertia of the first sweet potato from the soil just now, and directly brought a bunch of large and even bigger sweet potatoes from the soil.

"Good!!!" The surrounding villagers clapped their hands and applauded: "Master Gu, you are really capable!"

The moment the sweet potato left the ground, Gu Shen also felt an unprecedented sense of accomplishment.

In the past, his sense of accomplishment came from his mind and his business. Being too busy, he rarely had time to calm down. He could grow a plant or grow it from a young age, and enjoy the joy of getting fruits after cultivation by himself. !feel.

This is also the original intention of Gu Shenhui to build a farm project on the edge of the city before time travelling.

Gu Shen patted the soil stained on the sweet potato, and peeled off the skin of the sweet potato with a not-so-sharp hatchet. He couldn't wait to take a bite, and distributed the rest to the few villagers who stood nearby.

The earthy taste is mixed with the unique sweetness and starchy taste of potato food. It is not particularly delicious, but it can also impress people who taste this taste for the first time.

"Yeah! This sweet potato is so sweet! It's not even worse than dessert!"

"Yes, yes, it's really sweet. I'm afraid this food is comparable to the imperial meal that His Majesty eats, right?"

"Hey, don't talk nonsense, the emperor has never eaten sweet potatoes. Didn't Young Master Gu say that? These seedlings were rewarded by the gods in the sky to give us a living when they saw that we had no food."

The few villagers who tasted the taste of sweet potatoes first talked about the taste of sweet potatoes, which caused the villagers who did not get a share to swallow their saliva.

Gu Shen did not eat uncooked sweet potatoes in modern times. What he missed was the soft and sweet sweet potatoes after the simplest steaming.

"This sweet potato is sweet when eaten raw, and it will become even sweeter after steaming." Gu Shen held the largest one of this harvest in both hands, and handed it to Aunt Li next door: "Everyone dug the harvest in the field today. After going home, wash and steam the sweet potatoes, and eat them when they are soft."

That night, there was a sweet potato fragrance in the curling smoke above the entire Shuiyuan Village.

In the unfinished new courtyard of Gu Shen's house, Gu Shen was sitting in the courtyard with Su Yan in his newly made cloak.

The fallen leaves in front of him were piled high like a hill, inside the hill of fallen leaves flickered flickering fires, and the leisurely white smoke rose slowly along the gaps in the fallen leaves, drifting high all the way.

This was a wilderness survival project of a certain winter camp in Gu Shen’s junior high school days. The instructor at that time also specially taught them the difficulties and key points of roasting sweet potatoes with fallen leaves.

The first point is that the fallen leaves should be piled thick enough.Otherwise, the sparks will burn out at once.

The second point is that the sweet potatoes should be neither big nor small, otherwise they will be burnt to ashes and not cooked well.

"Ayan, trust me, this one is guaranteed to be better than steamed ones." Gu Shen turned over the fallen leaves with an extremely long wooden branch: "It will be ripe in a while, let Brother Dong come over and eat."

"Well, good." Su Yan responded with a nod, and leaned his forehead on Gu Shen's shoulder very naturally: "Master, I don't know why, but I always feel that Master is really different from the past. Can you make so many novel things? It can be said that so many sweet potatoes that have never been seen can be grown.”

This is the first time Su Yan has lamented to Gu Shen face to face because of Gu Shen's changes since time travel. It is not realistic to say that he is not guilty. "What's the matter? Ah Yan thinks I've changed, so you don't want me anymore? If Ah Yan doesn't want me, I'll just take Fu Guier and leave."

"Young Master! That's not what I meant!" Su Yan quickly explained: "I just think that the reason why the young master has changed is that the madam must have a spirit in heaven to protect the young master, so I am happy that the young master has changed."

"As long as Ayan is happy, the sweet potatoes are almost ripe, I will peel them for you later."

Gu Shen is a person who can always take one step and see three steps.

The sweet potato harvest in the village was unsurprisingly good. While the villagers were harvesting the harvest, Gu Shen had already brought two baskets of newly harvested sweet potatoes to Shuiyuan City to find a market for these sweet potatoes.

Due to the blessing of super fertilizers in the sudden wealth system, the yield of sweet potatoes in Shuiyuan Village is at least five thousand catties per mu. After the villagers have saved enough for their own food, there will inevitably be a lot of surplus.

How can a crop with a high popularity and unprecedented popularity not be used to make another pot of gold?

If you want to promote a food that has never been eaten before, the last way is to set up a big stove in the street market where people come and go, so that everyone can taste the taste of this food.

One pass ten, ten pass one hundred, first let the people remember the name of this food.

Even in ancient times when news was blocked, the power of mass communication was infinite.

In late autumn, in the bustling market on Hong'an Street.

The people who came and went, whether they were on foot or in sedan chairs, saw a young master of the Gu family wearing an apron guarding the cauldron, whoever caught him and cut sweet potatoes into pieces to taste.

The sweet potato has a strong aroma and a sweet taste. After steaming, the taste is soft and smooth, leaving a fragrance on the lips and teeth.

Especially in such a cold late autumn, eating a mouthful of steaming sweet potatoes couldn't be more comfortable.

In addition, the celebrity effect is also very important.

Gu Shen’s free sweet potato stall was set up for a few days, and while the people’s freshness hadn’t passed, he set up a few tables of wine in the Xinghualou, and specially invited the well-known scholars and talents in the city Write poems to this sweet potato, and pay five taels of silver for each poem.

For the sake of the five taels of silver, those literati who have always been self-proclaimed and noble counted one by one, writing poems while gnawing on warm sweet potatoes.

Such excellent works as "Sweet Potato Fu", "Ode to Potato", "Xinghualou Fenjiu Song Sweet Potato" and so on were widely circulated for a while.

From this, Gu Shen also deeply understood a truth, the reason why those literati can pretend to be noble is that they don't get enough money.

In addition to the literati, Gu Shen also sent these sweet potatoes to the home of the squire Dibao and even the county lieutenant.

Especially in the county captain's mansion, in addition to the sweet potato, there is also a long letter praising virtue and 200 taels of silver.

In the letter, he did not hesitate to praise the county magistrate as the number one parent official in ancient and modern times.

County Wei was so happy that he collected the money in a hurry, and handed the sweet potatoes to his superior.

The emergence of such high-yield crops in a county is an achievement worthy of praise in ancient times when food was the most important thing for the people.

After Gu Shen played these few chess moves, Sweet Potato instantly became popular in the whole south.

In addition to the merchants who came here especially for the name, even the imperial court sent people to buy it, preparing to use this crop as rations for the local garrison.

Gu Shen divided the abundant sweet potatoes into two parts, one part was priced at [-] Wen per catty at the price of merchants, and the other was at the price of [-] Wen per catty at the price purchased by the imperial court.

And no matter what price the sweet potatoes are purchased at, Gu Shen will return five Wen silver per catty to the villagers.

There are more than 500 mu of dry land in Shuiyuan Village, and a total of 27 catties of sweet potatoes were sold out before winter.

After Gu Shen dug out all the bonuses distributed to the villagers, he got a total of more than 8000 taels of silver.

In that year, all the old and young in Shuiyuan Village put on new clothes that they hadn’t seen for a long time, and every household repaired and built new houses. What’s more, they wanted to set up a monument for Gu Shen beside the old well in the village to fetch water every day. Time to worship.

Gu Shen resolutely rejected this kind of behavior that would shorten one's lifespan and harm one's virtue.

At the same time, this time point is also the day when the contracts signed between Gu Shen's soap workshop and the shopkeepers of various rouge shops expire. Gu Shen, who has sufficient funds on hand, talks about the acquisition with those shopkeepers one by one. and shareholding matters.

In the past, Gu Shen only served as the main body of production to provide sufficient supply for those shopkeepers, but now Gu Shen wants to firmly grasp both production and distribution in his own hands.

Those shopkeepers changed from actual operators to his authorized dealers, and the actual control of the store was in Gu Shen's hands.

However, due to the change of the main body of the business, those shopkeepers have much less to worry about in their daily lives than before. They are free and earn more money.

Winter is cold in October, the day of Lidong.

Gu Shen and the shopkeepers of the cosmetic shop had another drink in Xinghualou to finalize the matter.

Gu Shen's soap workshop will also be officially upgraded to a soap factory after the New Year of the next year, with 100 employees, all of whom are servants who have signed death contracts.

In addition to labor costs, it can save a lot.

The lipsticks that were previously discontinued will continue to be produced, and the original small workshops will also be transformed into standardized production plants.

In this dinner, Wu Liang, the shopkeeper of Chunfeng Rouge Shop, whose eyes are higher than the top, is missing again.

In just a few months, Wu Liang's family lost nearly half of their wealth accumulated over the years.

Xiangpan's business can't be done at all, so it can only rely on fragrance powder and rouge to support it.

The shopkeeper Wu Liang and the housekeeper Wu Er scratched their heads in anxiety as they flipped through the family's ledger every day.

The housekeeper Wu Er told Wu Liang more than once that he hoped that Wu Liang could come to the house to make peace with the young master of the Gu family.

Wu Liang still put on airs and refused to give in.

"Master, the young master of the Gu family has made a lot of money from the sweet potatoes planted this time. I heard that the shopkeepers even gave him the shop, and they are willing to go home to eat the bonuses, and even send their own buddies to buy money." Use it for him." Wu Er, the housekeeper, squeezed his master's shoulder: "They are all in a group, what should we do from now on?"

"What should I do?" Wu Liang took a sip of tea from the wooden cup at hand. After the experience of the previous two times, Wu Er never dared to put porcelain by his hand when discussing Gu Shen with his master: "That little bastard I don’t know what kind of shit luck I had. I thought that destroying the pile of wheat last time would make him unable to gain a foothold in that water source village? He even made some sweet potatoes out of nowhere, even the county captain praised him Young and promising. There is also Gu Fang's little girl who killed thousands of knives. She agreed to collect money to help me with errands, but what happened? Return the money back to me, saying that Gu Nanting is her son, she can't cheat Wasn't she earning money for that little bastard by killing her own flesh and blood, and she is eager to recognize that child back?"

"Yes, yes, the master said it all." The loyal dog Wu Er echoed: "It's just the master, we have to think of a way now. I heard that they will build some factories next year and produce those lipsticks. If so If the production of lipstick resumes, then our rouge will lose its market, and just relying on face powder is not enough for our family to spend."

"Master, I look at the account book every day. Can I not know what's going on here? In fact, master, I have thought about it a long time ago, but is it just the incense powder made by my ancestors? Since my generation, master, I have been in the raw silk business. The price of raw silk has been rising all the way in the past few years. Didn't the Gu family make a lot of money back then? Didn't Gu Fang want to protect her son? Well, I can't mess with her cheap son, can I still mess with her? ?" Wu Liang hugged his shoulders and grinned, almost getting the word "bad guy" engraved on his face.

Wu Er helped his forehead and sighed, thinking that it was good for his master to be happy.

Although it is extremely stupid to use a business that you have never dabbled in to attack the ancestral property of others.

But his master didn't think so, and felt that he was sure of winning.

The news that Gu Shen had made a lot of money spread like wildfire throughout the city, and the Wanniang Gu Fang naturally also got the news.

The current Gu Fang is quite persistent in thinking that the money that Gu Shen earns now, counting as one or two, will belong to her grandson.

So after getting the news, she was so happy that she jumped three times on the spot, and from that day on, she ran to Gu Shen's newly built house every now and then, crying and crying.

She said that she couldn't sleep at night and couldn't eat because she thought about Gu Shen, a good son.

Gu Shen's family also bought a few servants, and if the servants didn't know her, they naturally wouldn't let her in.

What's more, the whole source of water knows that the relationship between her stepmother and Gu Shen is extremely tense, who would give a good face to the stepmother of the God of Wealth?

Especially for those women who also gave birth to sons, when they saw Gu Fang's affectation, they wanted to spit on her face twice, and whoever saw her wanted to scold her for being an unscrupulous stepmother.

After several setbacks in succession, Gu Fang finally decided not to go rashly.

But she didn't want to let it go, and together with the maid Cui Cui, she came up with another seemingly brilliant idea.

She first found a few young servants who were unfamiliar overnight, and let them find out when Gu Shen and Su Yan went out and in during this period of time.

Then, she found a suitable time to fall directly at the gate of Gu Shen's house when he went out or entered.

As long as Gu Shen is still a person, then no matter what happens, he will not be left alone at the door.

She is always in love with each other, no matter how you say it, she is Gu Shen's mother.

Even if Gu Shen doesn't go home with her for a while, she vows to make a fortune on Gu Shen.

The last words of the old head of Qingcheng Mountain, he explained three things about his personal disciple Yunxiao.

First, work hard to become the supreme martial artist.

Second, do justice for the heavens and kill Yan Shisan, the number one demon in the world.

Third, mend the roof of the mountain gate that leaks rain all the year round.

Yunxiao only needs to complete one of these three things in his lifetime.

Just when Yunxiao had dug the yellow mud and was about to mend the roof, the sky was blue and white!On the same day, a thunderstorm knocked down all the three thatched cottages at the mountain gate.In order to fulfill his teacher's last wish as soon as possible, Yun Shaoxia had no choice but to carry a sword named "chopper" on his back, and with the only ten taels of silver in his pocket, he embarked on the road of justice for the sky.

Yan Shisan, who was given the nickname Martial Arts Ceiling, the emperor of the Western Regions, kills gods and ghosts and faces Buddha.Legend has it that he was the reincarnation of Shura from Hell, and he bit his mother to death the day he was born. He was born with cold blood and murder, heinous.

On a sunny afternoon, the 17-year-old young hero pointed at the demon Yan Shisan with a righteous face while holding his long sword: "Devil! Today I will do justice for the heavens! Take your dog's life! Draw your sword! "

Master Yan stretched out his hand and flicked the tip of the little young man's sword: "Little thing, I don't use a sword."

Guiltyly, the little young hero rubbed half of his numb body and put away the sword: "You... you go... I won't kill unarmed people... I'll let you go today!"

"Oh yes, but did I say that I would let you go?"
