Under Gu Shun's insistence on request.

Grandma rinsed the two lumps of soil in Gu Shun's hand in water, put them in the pot and started cooking.

After a while, a smell of potatoes floated in the room.

"It smells so good."

Grandma smelled this scent that she had never smelled before, and a hint of eager light flashed in her muddy eyes.

Soon, the potatoes were cooked.

Under Gu Shun's demonstration, the mother and grandson each held a potato and gently peeled off the outer skin, revealing the yellow, tender and delicious potato pulp inside.

Gu Shun took a bite first, and the potatoes were very soft and full of starch, which tasted fragrant and glutinous.

Grandma Li also took a bite, then narrowed her eyes with satisfaction, and kept praising:

"This thing is delicious, it's so delicious. I've never eaten this thing. Shunshun, how do you know this thing can be eaten?"

Gu Shun stuffed a potato into his mouth after a few seconds, chewing while he said in a daze:

"This thing is called potato. I heard from the madman Qiao. He said that almost everyone in the city eats this thing."

"And in addition to cooking, there are countless ways to eat it, such as steaming, fried, roasting, fried, fried, and stewing. It can be used as a staple food and a dish, and it tastes good no matter how you eat it."

Gu Shun naturally cannot say that potatoes are something he knew since he was born.

So he blamed the madman Qiao for discovering Tudou. No one knew what the people in the city ate, and he could not prove it and could not expose his lies.

In order not to let this secret be discovered too early, Gu Shun specifically reminded:

"Madman Joe also said that potatoes are very precious things in Uptown, and they do not allow others to have them, so we must not let others know that we have this thing."

Grandma Li nodded with concern, "I understand, I will never talk nonsense."

"It's just that you have grown this potato for so long that you have gotten so much." Grandma Li said regretfully.

Gu Shun ran outside and dragged it into a large bag full of potatoes.

All the big and small inside are potatoes.

Grandma Li said in surprise: "Where did you get so many potatoes?"

"I grow them all. The yield of this thing is very high. As long as the temperature reaches it, you can harvest one crop in up to 3 to 4 months."

"There are so many, you only planted one. This thing is much more productive than wheat." Grandma looked at the bags of potatoes and was extremely happy.

Soon, two years have passed since the first batch of potatoes ripened.

Gu Shun is already three and a half years old.

Gu Shun has not been idle in the past two years, so he reclaimed all the land in his yard.

Fresh soil brought from outside the city was laid with plastic film. In order to add sunlight to the potatoes, Gu Shun also went to the garbage dump to get a fluorescent lamp and put it in the floor shed.

Under Gu Shun's meticulous care, the potatoes quickly reached the level of three ripe a year.

The empty cellar at home was also full of potatoes.

Because the potato yield is too high, two people can't finish it.

There are layer by layer of potatoes, and the lowest layer of potatoes have even sprouted.

The large amount of potato stalks are also used as firewood, so Gu Shun's family no longer has to worry about fuel and food issues.

Because of its full nutrition, Gu Shun has grown taller than a six-year-old child in the Lower City at the age of three.

Because my grandmother can have a full meal every meal, her complexion is much better than before, and her shriveled face also has flesh.

Potato completely changed the lives of the two people and allowed them to live a life of full food and worry-free life in the downtown area.

It was not enough to just eat a full meal, so Gu Shun planned to make money again.

Looking at the large amount of potato stalks that could not be burned, Gu Shun had an idea.

He crushed the seedlings, put them in a plastic bag, and put them into a dark and humid warehouse in the backyard.

Then Gu Shun went around the wild for a long time and finally got a few mushrooms back.

He dried and crushed the mushrooms and mixed them with the crushed and fermented potato straws, put them back in the plastic bag, poked a few small eyes on the plastic bag, sprinkled water on it regularly every day to maintain constant temperature and humidity.

A week later, mushrooms began to drill into the hole one after another.

When grandma looked at a large basket of mushrooms that Gu Shun was holding, she couldn't even say anything shocked.

Mushrooms are a rare mix and delicacy in the Lower Town, where there is little food and clothing. Often, after the rain, there are more people looking for mushrooms than mushrooms.

My dear grandson actually got such a big bag back at one time, and now he is very rich.

Grandma picked up Gu Shun and kissed her fiercely.

"Shunshun, you are so amazing. You have found so many mushrooms. I will cook mushroom soup for you tonight."

Gu Shunze shook his head and said, "I didn't look for this outside, I planted it myself."

Grandma was stunned and said incredibly: "You planted it yourself?"

Gu Shun took his grandmother to the backyard and tinkered with her own small house that she had been doing for several months.

As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a strong and pungent smell of fungal fermentation.

Gu Shun asked her grandmother to put on a facial towel to prevent inhaling this spore-filled air that would cause any problems with her grandmother's lungs.

Grandma looked at the bags of culture medium placed on the shelves of the house, full of mushrooms of different sizes, and was growing gratifyingly.

She had never seen such a scene, and there were so many mushrooms that people were stunned.

The sign at the door said Gu Shun's snarky words: I wish you a good harvest of mushrooms and a full house of potatoes.

Grandma walked to a culture medium and stroked the smooth skin of the mushroom with her hands, crying with joy:

"It turned out to be a mushroom, so good, so good."

Gu Shunze said: "Grandma, from tomorrow, you don't have to spend money on origami. If we sell mushrooms, we will have money."

"Well, yes, my Shunshun." Grandma stroked Gu Shun's head, unable to suppress her tears of joy.

The next day, Gu Shun and grandma came to the market and set up a stall to sell mushrooms.

Because the mushrooms grown by Gu Shun are even better in color than those of wild ones, they don’t have to worry about selling them at all, and they will be sold out in a short while.

Looking at the money in his hand, grandma happily picked up Gu Shun and said, "Let's go, grandma buy you something delicious."

At Gu Shun's special request, the two of them only sold a little mushroom every day, not too much.

After all, if there are too many, it is easy to be missed.

They do not have enough self-protection ability and trump cards now, and once they are targeted, they are easily in danger.

So you would rather make less money than keep yourself safe.

Gu Shun used the money earned from selling mushrooms to buy two piglets, one male and one female.

A pigpen was built in the only open space in the backyard and kept the piglets inside.

The pigs were fed with the base of sprouted potatoes and mushrooms that could not be eaten, and this group even surpassed most people in the city.

As the pigs grow day by day, the pigpen becomes smaller and smaller.

The scale of potato planting and the warehouse where mushrooms are cultivated are not enough.

The increasingly cramped space gave Gu Shun the idea of ​​changing to a bigger place.

In this way, it can also expand its scale, from a seller to a supplier and channel.

Grandma Gu Shun's proposal for her baby grandson was 10,000 support.

Gu Shun made potatoes, mushrooms, and even raised pigs one after another, which surprised grandma.

As life gets better and better, it’s time to change to a bigger place to live.

Grandma took out the coffin book she had saved for many years, and with the money Gu Shun earned these days, she actually had tens of thousands of copper spears.

Gu Shun looked around the environment and location of the city and bought a large piece of land in a remote place outside the city but the environment is pretty good.

Everything downtown is expensive, but the land is cheap.

Then, Gu Shun bought eight more containers and placed them in the form of a fortress according to his own requirements.

Four plastic greenhouses and a wide pigpen with shed were built outside.

In addition, Gu Shun also built a warehouse specially used for growing mushrooms and a cellar for storing various items.

In order to facilitate entry and exit from the city, Gu Shun also bought a tricycle for transportation, which facilitates grandma's travel.

After doing all this, the money was emptied.

However, compared with the cramped and narrow family before, his living conditions have made a qualitative leap.
