The eldest daughter of the emperor, she began to build a city wildly

Chapter 54 Uneasy
The announcement on the new post on the bulletin board clearly stated how to store potatoes, how to make potato starch and vermicelli, how to make French fries, fried potatoes and other delicacies, and what seasonings to put in to make them delicious. The shopkeeper's dream was completely shattered.

"No wonder she told me the method so generously yesterday. She was ready to reveal the method to the public." The shopkeeper patted himself on the head. The formula he regarded as a unique secret book yesterday is known to the whole city today. The gold and silver from the Qing Dynasty, all the branches are now in vain.

Yingyue watched the shopkeeper walk into the door dejectedly, pursed her lips and snickered, "Master, if you announce the method, the shopkeeper might be happy in vain."

"Even if it's announced, he won't lose." Su Tang laughed.

"Why? Now that everyone knows how to make money, he doesn't have any advantages, so why not lose money?" Yingyue was puzzled.

"We make potatoes into Yanyang City's special food. With the opening of our stores or the sale of potatoes, many businessmen will come to Yanyang City to do business. They will definitely be willing to try the specialties here. At that time, they will be able to promote their consumption in the city, so that the people can have more income, and if the shopkeeper can manage the inn well, there will be no worries about no customers." Su Tang explained.

Yingyue understood instantly, "It turns out that the master is thinking about the overall situation. If Yanyang City can attract more merchants, why would the people in the city have no money to make?"

Since Su Tang posted the various ways to eat potatoes written by himself on the bulletin board, various inns and restaurants began to purchase potatoes in large quantities and added dishes, which made the price of potatoes, which was not low, increase again, and let those who came to buy potatoes Businessmen who plan to plant next year have one head and two big ones.

Because of this incident, even the teahouses became lively. Businessmen complained that such high-yield potatoes could not be bought for seeds, and those who opened restaurants were willing to eat them.

The shopkeeper who opened the restaurant said, aren't potatoes grown for eating?What do you do if you don't eat it?The two sides insisted on their own opinions, and they fought a war of words in the tea shop when they had nothing to do.

This situation, on the contrary, made those potato farmers laugh from ear to ear every day.

Now the price of potatoes is more expensive than white rice. The price of rice is about one tael per stone, and now the price of potatoes has risen to two taels. With more and more people coming here, there is even a trend of continuing to rise .

After they paid one-tenth of the tax, they conservatively estimated that they would have 40 shi left, and ten shi would be planted next spring, and the remaining [-] shi could be sold for [-] taels of silver.

40 taels of silver is a number that they dare not even think about. In the past, when they were poor, one tael of silver was enough for their family's expenses for a year.

Now the price of potatoes is so precious that farmers themselves are reluctant to eat a bite. Wouldn't it be more cost-effective to exchange them for money to buy some rice that they could not afford before.

Such a calculation really surprised many people. Those who do business never thought that one day the income of the farmers who cultivated the land in one season would be more than what they earned in a year of hard work in business.

With money in their hands, the peasants went to the city to buy some food and clothing, and the streets were much busier than usual.

Su Tang went to the shop to check the progress of the renovation, and then went for a walk on the street.

Now it has entered the early autumn, the autumn is crisp and breezy, reflecting the glowing red sunset, adding an unreal beauty to the whole street.

There are also more small stalls on the side of the road. Pedestrians are no longer lifeless as before. Everyone walks briskly, talking and laughing. Just the bumper harvest of potatoes seems to have brought about a great improvement in the lives of the people.

From no food to full food, from shabby clothes to new clothes, this is not only that life is getting better, but also full of hope for the future life, no longer thinking about the next meal every day Will there be no food to eat, and will freeze to death in the next winter.

Most of the potato seeds that were sent out to more than 5000 mu of land were poor and destitute people who were willing to try planting them because they were free. Now that the harvest is bumper, at least people in Yanyang City will no longer starve to death.

"Master, let's try the food over there." Yingyue grabbed Jingtuan and looked at Su Tang expectantly with her four eyes.

"Okay." Su Tang also just wanted to try some delicacies that the people made based on the way of eating potatoes she shared.

In just a few days, stalls selling potato snacks have sprung up in the city like bamboo shoots. Some are looking for business opportunities and think they can make money, and some are farmers who have money and potatoes, so they want to start business.

Potato shreds, mashed potatoes, potato sticks, potato cubes, potato flour, all kinds of tricks are available.

Find a neat and clean roadside stall and sit down, order a few good-looking dishes to taste, sit at the small square table under the shed, Yingyue can't wait for the seller to make delicacies.

Jingtuan imitated the two of them, squatting their ass on the small bench, knocking on the small table with two fat claws, Su Tang looked at the creaking bench legs, and silently cheered for it, don't fall apart .

Seeing the impressive group of people sitting there, Su Tangwei lamented that this guy's IQ is really not low. After such a long time of testing and understanding, she has at least the IQ of a four- or five-year-old child, and sometimes he can think for himself , for a simple response.

If the pandas here have such a high IQ and amazing fighting power, maybe it would be nice to raise a group of them for fighting, and even open a panda garden and collect tickets.

But this idea can only be thought about. People in Fufengzhai mined ore everywhere in the mountains, and they never encountered a second one. Obviously, even in this era, pandas are still rare.

Besides, if pandas were able to understand human nature, there would not be so many hurtful things before, and they were also called iron-eating beasts, and they could not be avoided. In this way, Jingtuan is an exception. I don’t know what it is cause.

After wandering around the city for the past few days, the common people seem to get used to this foolish looking, but actually very cute, many people are not afraid anymore, and even to watch the shocking group, the tables at the stall are almost full. The seller is very happy and busy.

After a while, their food order came, including boiled potato flour, potato pancakes, and fried potato sticks after cooking.

The potato sticks tasted soft and delicious. Probably the seller added some spices that are unique to their place, and it tasted unique. It's a pity that the spicy taste was missing. To Su Tang, it was like missing a big soul.

In this era where steaming is the main way of cooking, this is already a rare delicacy. Even the foreign businessmen who scolded the shopkeepers who opened restaurants in teahouses for eating potato seeds for such a shameful behavior are still eating them with relish at the moment.

Jingtuan hugged the potato pancakes that Su Tang made for it and gnawed and smacked his lips, causing the people around to exclaim that they were cute.

Su Tang looked at the gradually darkening sky. A few stars had already climbed into the sky. At some point, lanterns and torches were lit on the streets, emitting a dim light.

There are still many pedestrians on the side of the road, noisy.

Obviously such a scene of common people being happy, at this moment a deep uneasiness climbed into Su Tang's heart, and he became more and more flustered.

Quickly turned on the monitoring function to observe the situation of Fufengzhai and Yanyang City. When he saw the scene outside the city, Su Tang felt his heart suffocated, and hurriedly said, "Yingyue, go to the Yamen to report to the officials, let them clean up immediately. Soldiers go outside the city."

Yingyue saw that Su Tang's tone was wrong and her expression was serious, she didn't dare to ask any more questions, she put down the food in her hand and ran towards the Yamen, Su Tang also hurried out of the city with a startled group.
