Chapter 30 Dry Chew Chili
"This chili... seems very familiar to me?"
Looking at the chili on Xiao Zhengtai's chopsticks, Ying Zheng felt very familiar, but for a moment he couldn't remember where he had seen it before.
"Of course it looks familiar. I grew a lot of them at home in Julong Village!"
Life without peppers would be boring, so when little Shota got peppers, her first reaction was to save the seeds and plant some at home.
It’s okay to adjust the flavor on a regular basis!
"Yes, yes, yes! That's right there!"
After this reminder, Ying Zheng suddenly remembered.
While the two of them were packing their things, Ying Zheng walked around the house and saw these red peppers.
But it hadn’t been dried in the sun at the time and the shape was slightly different, so I didn’t think of it for a while!
"Feiyu, how did you discover this chili pepper?"
Ying Zheng also picked up a piece of chili pepper and put it under his nose to observe carefully.
If he remembered correctly, there was no such thing in Da Qin.
Could it be from the other six countries?
"Where can I find a five-and-a-half-year-old child? My master gave it to me!"
Xiao Zhengtai has become accustomed to comparing the system to his master, and Ying Zheng also believes in it.
Without the guidance of such an expert, how could a child come up with so many new tricks?
Since the deliciousness of hot pot requires the combination of beef and chili, the taste of chili should be no less than that of beef.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng directly threw half of the dried chili pepper into his mouth.
When Xiao Shota raised his head, he happened to see this scene and hurriedly reached out to stop him, "Wait! This is not..."
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the chili pepper was already in his mouth.
Instantly, a spicy feeling filled the mouth, driving away the delicious taste of the beef before.
Ying Zheng's old face suddenly turned red, as if he had a fireball in his mouth.
"Bah! Cough cough cough..."
Ying Zheng spit out the chili pepper naturally and coughed violently.
"Jingfu, get some ice water quickly!"
Xiao Zhengtai greeted quickly.
Milk is the best way to relieve spicy food, but at this time, where can Jingfu go to find milk?
By the time he found the milk, Ying Zheng was probably furious!
It’s easier to find ice water!
"Gudong, Gudong!"
Ying Zheng, who was so hot that he breathed fire, drank two large bowls of ice water in one breath.
It's hot first and then cold. I wonder if this old guy's stomach can handle it?
"Chili pepper is so bad?"
After his mouth felt relieved, Ying Zheng slapped his face and started to complain.
"Father, chili peppers can only be used for seasoning and cannot be eaten directly like vegetables!"
Seeing the old guy's funny look, Mr. Shota couldn't hold back his laughter.
The system provides pure chili peppers, the kind with thin skin and very spicy taste.
It's not that later generations improved the meat to be thicker and lighter in taste.
This old guy didn't ask any questions and just took half a stick. He would be surprised if it wasn't spicy to death!
"I remember that day you asked the guards to bring all those crops back. I wonder if they can be grown in Xianyang?"
"There are also high-yielding potatoes. Is it too late to sow them now?"
In order to cover up his embarrassment, Ying Zheng quickly changed the subject.
"Of course there is time. The potatoes my master gave me have high yields and a short maturity period. They will mature in just two months. If you plant them now, you will harvest them in the fall!"
"The survivability of peppers is even stronger. Even if you throw the seeds directly on the ground, as long as the rain is mixed and they are not exposed to the sun all day, they will be able to take root and germinate!"
Xiao Zhengtai raised her little face and introduced with a little contentment.
The system rewarded me with a bag of potatoes, weighing about ten kilograms.
He only baked a few, which weighed less than eight pounds.
If you plant all these potatoes with proper fertilizer and water, you will still be able to harvest eighty kilograms.
Next year, after another year of breeding, it will reach 80,000 catties!
That means you can start planting it in Daqin and gradually spread it!
Now that Zhao Gao is dead and Hu Hai has been sent away, without these two scourges, Great Qin will not die in its second generation!
Coupled with the high-yield grain, the people have a backing, and Da Qin can gradually expand, making every place where the sun shines become the land of Da Qin!
Ying Zheng asked a lot of questions about planting. Lian'er picked up vegetables for the two of them and watched the two chatting, feeling happy.
…
Early the next morning, the young lady got up and drew the drawings, and asked Mingde to find someone to build according to the drawings.
What is drawn on the drawing is a large black pot.
This thing has no technical content. It is made of ordinary iron. Even Lao Wang from Julong Village can do it!
Breakfast was still the same clear soup with little water, and the young lady was too lazy to move.
"Gulu"
However, my stomach was unsatisfactory and started to growl.
"Alas...! Let's put two pieces of bread on the table first, and I'll reward you later when the iron pot is ready!"
Little Shota rubbed her round belly and muttered to herself, went into her backpack, dug out two pieces of bread, added some snacks, and wandered out to the yard for a walk.
Don't tell me, the palace is a palace, even a side hall in Yingzheng's bedroom has a huge courtyard.
There is a jujube tree in the middle of the yard, and there are stone tables and benches under the tree for you to enjoy the shade!
“Chirp chirp chirp… chirp chirp chirp…”
Little Shota walked under the tree and suddenly heard a few sparrows chirping on the tree. On a whim, she jumped up to the tree in a few steps!
This frightened the palace maid!
"Sir, young master, there is danger in the tree...!"
"Young Master, please come down quickly. What will happen if you fall?"
"Sir, Your Majesty has found a husband for you. He will be here soon. Please come down quickly!"
The maids immediately put down what they were doing and ran to the jujube tree, trying their best to persuade her.
However, the young lady had no intention of going down at all. Instead, she climbed higher and sat down on a tree branch!
"Huh! Those old gentlemen only know that stuff all day long, I don't want them to teach me!"
Ying Feiyu snorted, pouted, and rolled his eyes.
Before time travel, although he was only a graduate of a third-rate university, he still studied for fifteen years from elementary school to university!
Those who are not taught by others will also learn a lot of knowledge, and they may not necessarily know less than those gentlemen!
In this era, it is often said that ten years of hard work are hard!
If he were to look at it, which child in future generations would not start at the age of fifteen?
It’s much harder than this era!
Moreover, the knowledge learned is the essence of what the predecessors have summarized for more than two thousand years!
Not to mention anything else, just a set of multiplication formulas is enough to amaze the great scholars of this era for a while!
"Sir, please come down quickly. This gentleman is extraordinary. Not only is he very knowledgeable, he is also very strict. He might be punished by a ruler!"
The maid under the jujube tree stamped her feet anxiously and quickly spoke to persuade.
Not only is it dangerous for the young master to climb a tree, it will also waste time.
If the gentleman arrives later and sees the young master like this, he will definitely be given a beating!
"Oh? You can also hit people?"
This piqued Ying Feiyu's interest.
[Ding! System mission, drive away the teacher, reward auxiliary skills, Lingbo Weibu!]
What the hell?
Lingbo Weibu?
The one that's as fast as lightning?
【Yes!】
After hearing the system's affirmative reply, Xiao Zhengtai danced with excitement.
Chapter completed!
