Chapter 138 The Jian family is in trouble!

After working like this all night, the rain had stopped when she woke up in the morning. Tao Xi couldn't help but sigh as she smelled the fresh smell in the air.

"Finally, the rain has passed and the sky has cleared up. We no longer have to endure the drought like before!"

It was a nice rainy day. Tao Xi stood outside the courtyard and seemed to hear the old people in the village happily saying that this year's harvest would not be too bad.

"Sister-in-law, is it time to harvest the sweet potatoes in our backyard?"

Jian Erni looked at the green sweet potato vines in the backyard and was already greedy. They had eaten these sweet potato vines before and they were more delicious than those outside.

So Jian Erni definitely thinks that the sweet potatoes here are definitely better than those in the fields outside.

"Okay, let's collect this today!"

Tao Xi nodded with a smile. It was time to verify what the sweet potato that had been spawned by her superpower looked like!

Thinking like this, Tao Xi was not even interested in having breakfast, and happily went to the backyard with a small iron handle.

Naturally, the rest of the family followed suit, first cutting off part of the sweet potato vines, and then Tao Xi carefully dug up the sweet potatoes.

When they saw the size of the sweet potato clearly, Jian Erni and others' jaws dropped.

"Oh my god, is this a sweet potato? It's so big!"

A sweet potato must be as big as two adult fists, and it looks very fruitful.

“It must be delicious!”

Jian Shiyi looked at the sweet potatoes and licked his lips. He was so greedy for the huge sweet potatoes.

Even Jian Shiwu couldn't help but swallow quietly. The calmest one was probably Jian Shiming.

He looked deeply at Tao Xi squatting in the ground, and something strange flashed in his eyes.

Sure enough, he had read correctly before. Tao Xi had really done special treatment for the sweet potatoes in this land.

That's why the sweet potatoes here look particularly different.

"Come, let's all have a try."

Tao Xi directly washed the sweet potatoes with water, then cut them into pieces with a knife and gave each person a piece.

Jian Shiyi couldn't wait to stuff it into his mouth, and soon his eyes lit up green.

"Sister-in-law, these sweet potatoes are so sweet. Sister-in-law is so awesome. Even the sweet potatoes are more delicious than those grown by others."

"Twenty points."

Jian Erni and Jian Shiwu also gave high evaluations. Everyone looked at Jian Shiming. Jian Shiming slowly chewed the sweet potatoes in his mouth and said:

“It’s really delicious.”

"Fifty points."

"Then let me try it too."

Tao Xi took a bite and found that the taste was really good, almost comparable to sweet potatoes from space.

Thinking like this, Tao Xi suddenly felt reluctant to sell such good sweet potatoes and vegetables.

Suddenly her eyes lit up. She could sell the sweet potatoes recovered from the field, and then leave the ones produced in the space for their own consumption. Perfect!

After thinking about it, Tao Xi looked at everyone and said, "Come on, let's dig quickly. After digging, I will go to Yun County to get some vegetable seeds.

Maybe we can grow cabbage in this land and we can have some fresh food in winter."

"good!"

Jian Shiming hurriedly followed the work, because he knew that whatever Tao Xi wanted would be realized one by one. Since she said that, she must have an idea.

After a whole morning, all the sweet potatoes in the backyard were harvested, but because it rained last night, everyone's legs were covered in mud.

However, everyone didn't care if there was food. They washed the sweet potatoes and put them in filtered water. Tao Xi drove the ox cart to Yun County.

The road today was not that easy because it had rained and the ground was still wet.

But Tao Xi didn't expect to meet Gu Yan halfway today. Gu Yan was planning to go to Taomu Village and was very surprised to see Tao Xi.

"Sister-in-law!"

"Master Gu."

Tao Xi drove the bullock cart over. At this time, Gu Yan lost his usual serious look and smiled from ear to ear.

"Sister-in-law, have you tasted the food grown from the seeds you gave me?"

"not yet."

Tao Xi answered truthfully, they recently harvested the first batch of sweet potatoes, and the next batch will take about five or six days.

Gu Yan smiled broadly, "I dug out the sweet potatoes and tasted them in advance, but they didn't taste much.

The size is also much larger than the previous one. This kind is very good. King Jing will be very happy if he knows about it."

"As long as Mr. Gu is satisfied."

Tao Xi thought to herself, those are the seeds that my mother worked so hard to produce. How could it be possible that they are not good?

After a few days, the sweet potatoes will only become bigger and sweeter, and the same will be true for potatoes. The winter wheat harvest may not be possible until later in the year.

"Satisfied, satisfied, of course satisfied."

Gu Yan pointed to the carriage with a smile, "I was too busy before, so I never had time to come over.

In the carriage is a reward from King Jing, and I will deliver it to you as well."

"Don't bother me, Sir, to make another trip. I'll take it back myself."

Tao Xi was still thinking about going to the city. Gu Yan, a clinker, smiled and said, "I happen to have a few questions that I would like to ask Brother Jian for advice. Why don't we do it with my sister-in-law?"

Tao Xi:……

Even though it was a pity, Tao Xi still had to follow Gu Yan back.

Driving the ox cart into the village, everyone was surprised to see Gu Yan's carriage, and then greeted Gu Yan naturally.

"Master Gu is here to see Brother Ming again? The grass people have some freshly harvested sweet potatoes here. Can you give them to Master Gu to try?"

"Master Gu, please come to our house for dinner when you have time. It's just a simple meal."

"Master Gu..."

"Thank you everyone."

Gu Yan answered everyone's questions kindly along the way, which made Tao Xi's depression disappear a little.

Seeing that Gu Yan was a good official, she reluctantly prepared to entertain him well.

But when Gu Yan saw the sweet potatoes drying in the yard, his jaw almost dropped.

"Brother Jian, are your sweet potatoes this big?"

Tao Xi:!!!

Being hasty, she just said why she didn't want Gu Yan to come deep down in her heart. It turned out that there was another reason.

Jian Shiming stood up quickly and came over with a smile, "We are at the foot of the mountain, the soil is better, and the sweet potatoes in the backyard are bigger than those in the field."

His tone was calm, as if this was no surprise.

Jian Erni took the reins from Tao Xi's hand with a wink and drove the cow into the cowshed. Tao Xi went into the house and took a sweet potato from the field outside.

Then he handed it to Gu Yan and said, "Mr. Gu, look, this is a sweet potato from the ground. The quality of the sweet potato has a great relationship with the soil quality."

Gu Yan took it and took a look and immediately said: "What we can grow from our batch of seeds should be similar to this."

"Yes."

Tao Xi breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Jian Shiming reacted quickly, otherwise he almost missed the mark.

"Ms. Sir, Mr. Gu is here to deliver a reward this time."

She smiled and changed the topic. Sure enough, Gu Yan's focus was shifted, and he smiled and whispered to Jian Shiming:

"Brother Jian, King Jing is very grateful to you for finding the seeds. Knowing that you are not greedy for wealth, he specially ordered me to send you a thank you gift."

He pointed at the piles of things on the carriage, not to mention that the Jian family's younger brothers and sisters were amazed.

Even the people standing outside Jian's yard took a breath.

When Gu Yan came, many people in Taomu Village followed him out of curiosity. Now looking at this situation, everyone is envious.

It's just that it's a bit far apart and blocked by bamboo, so everyone can't see it clearly.

But they all know that the Jian family has become rich!
