Chapter 162 Pepper Seeds

Acting is really getting better and better, and with the blessing of makeup, it becomes more and more like that.

Without explaining much to others, she put down the basket, picked out a slender one, split one into two under the eyes of everyone, handed half to the seed shop owner, and wiped the half by herself.

"This sweet potato is very sweet. In addition to steaming and roasting to eat, it can also produce sugar water. The most important thing is that this crop can be propagated by cuttings. It will be buried in the soil, and the vines that grow back can be cut for cuttings, not only One season can be planted after spring, and another season can be planted after autumn.”

No matter how much you say, it is better to eat a bite. In a world where only grain can produce sugar, another crop that produces sugar is not too attractive.

After just one sip, the boss asked, "How much?"

"One tael of silver." Ding Xue gestured a finger slightly.

The boss, who was about to take a second bite, paused.

He can still think about a hundred coins, one or two, stealing money?
"Uncle, you give me one hundred coins first, and after autumn, I will collect the remaining nine hundred coins."

For ordinary people, things that have not been planted are too much for a penny, but it is absurd to ask for one or two, and then come back to collect the rest.

Either, this thing is fake, and it costs a lot of [-] yuan, or, if it really has that output, people are not afraid.

The boss lowered his eyes, fell on the fruit in his hand for a long time, and then nodded: "OK."

"Boss!" Are you stupid?
Although the big guy who spoke first didn't say anything, the meaning was obvious, and the boss was unambiguous, so he broke a paragraph directly to him: "Try it first."

Ding Xuewei took 25 smoked sweet potatoes, and the sugar content of raw sweet potatoes was about [-]. Eating it this way was about the same as a sweeter peach.

Naturally, peaches can also be boiled with fructose, but the yield of ordinary peach trees is less than a thousand catties, and not every peach produced on a peach tree has this kind of sweetness.

Maintaining a skeptical attitude, the big man took the sweet potato, and after that, everyone saw him showing the same complex expression as the boss.

"Give me two." The big man said after swallowing the sweet potatoes, but he was talking to the boss.

Buying and selling are two different things. The boss said to buy first, and he said later. The price has to be determined by the owner of the seed shop.

The boss glanced at Ding Xuewei, and saw that she was anxiously pinching half of the remaining sweet potatoes, and said, "Little girl, how many sweet potatoes did you bring, or else, I'll give you the money first."

"Okay." Ding Xuewei hastily took out the paper she had prepared early in the morning, and she had to go home: "This is the method of planting sweet potatoes, precautions and storage methods"

The boss took the rough paper and read it ten lines at a glance, and then asked her two unclear questions.

When the boss turned around to get the money, she took off the bag hanging on her chest: "Do you want sesame seeds, peanuts, soybeans, and pepper seeds?"

"Hu..." The boss almost missed his waist: "Little girl, don't be joking."

"No, my father and the others met an Outland caravan. My pack of seeds all come from Outland. I heard that the output is much higher than our Daxia's."

As she spoke, she opened the bag and showed the seeds inside to everyone.
-
"What a big peanut!"
-
"So full of soybeans!"
-
"This is sesame"

"How come the sesame seeds are black?" The big man who wanted to buy two sweet potatoes squatted down, carefully dipped a few black sesame seeds, and observed carefully.

Ding Xuewei handed the pepper packet to the boss who was following the big man, and said to the big man, "This is a sesame from a foreign land. They say that this kind of sesame not only has a high yield, but also has a higher oil content. In fact, this peanut is the same as soybeans. "

The big man's eyes fell on the peanuts and soybeans next to the sesame seeds.

When he opened his mouth to say that it is not surprising that the seeds are so plump and oily, the boss's suspicious voice sounded: "Are you sure these are pepper seeds?"

Pepper has the title of white gold in this book world, and every pepper that appears in the Great Xia Kingdom comes from a distant foreign land, so ordinary people have no chance to hear about it.

Ding Xue was slightly surprised that the owner of such a small shop knew about pepper.

"That's what foreign businessmen say."

The boss stared at Ding Xuewei without blinking.

What he was holding in his hand was pepper, and Ding Xuewei didn't lie, so naturally he wasn't guilty.

"The prices of these seeds are all the same, they are all one yuan and one hundred wen. However, there is no basis for what I say, so I will give it to me at the price of one yuan and one hundred wen for the time being. When I turn around, I will plant it, and our family will come to collect the leftovers." down the money."

Not to mention whether the pepper is true or not, whether they can grow it here, just relying on the word pepper is worth a gamble.

Ding Xuewei brought pepper with this in mind.

"Uncle, my father is waiting for the money, otherwise he will not let me take out these things. If you are willing to give my family a convenience, then please accept these things. If you don't believe me, then I will... ·”

Halfway through the conversation, she began to reach out.

Although the boss remained skeptical, he could still return it, but he would never return it.

Not to mention whether black sesame is better, at least soybeans and peanuts are better.

"I'll weigh it."

He took it all.

"Little girl."

A thin woman winked at her.

The price Ding Xuewei yelled is expensive, but this expensive price does not mean taking money immediately. If her seeds are really as good as she said, is it worth the price?

If not, she wouldn't be able to hold on to the hundred wen.

"Auntie, I have already agreed to the boss." Ding Xuewei said bluntly.

The woman was looked at with contempt by everyone, and she was a little bit embarrassed.

"You child, what nonsense you say, I just want to say that your father is very lucky."

Everyone could see what she was up to, but they didn't say anything because they didn't want to tell the truth.

Everyone watched the boss weigh and count the money, and Ding Xuewei handed the four pieces of rough paper that he had put away to the boss.

This time, the boss read the instructions but didn't ask much.

Ding Xuewei didn't say where her home was, and the boss didn't know whether it was on purpose or not, and he didn't ask her, let alone introduce herself. The two just did a whole business in front of so many people, and when she left , and with a shy face, asked for the small half of sweet potato that she didn't continue to eat.

Ding Xuewei, who had entered 44 taels of silver, was not excited, and returned to the big tree and came out with a basket on her back.

This time, she didn't take pepper and soybeans, and the seed shop she entered was larger than the previous one, and a series of reprints went smoothly than before.

"Boss, do you have any potato seeds?" She asked suddenly after taking the money.

The boss didn't hear clearly: "What?"

"Potato seeds." Ding Xue tilted her head slightly, feeling a headache: "My father said potatoes are delicious, if there are seeds, I will buy some."

"No." The boss shook his head decisively.

Originally, Ding Xuewei just wanted to make potatoes familiar. Naturally, it was impossible to tell the boss that the production of potatoes was not much worse than that of sweet potatoes. In her opinion, potatoes were not as dominant as sweet potatoes. He entered the space and came out with a basket of potatoes on his back.

 Daily shout, ask for tickets, ask for collection...
