A few people looked at the sky and found that the sun had already risen to half the sky.

I didn't feel anything while I was working, but now that I stopped I found myself feeling very hungry.

Everyone quickly packed up their tools and walked towards Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi.

"Master, why are you here?"

Chu Changfeng: "I came to see how your dormitory is being repaired. I guess you won't have to squeeze into tents in half a month. We are also looking for a cook."

When everyone heard this, they stopped instantly.

"Boss, you...why don't you just give us a cook? Can you give us more food allowance every month?"

Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi were stunned.

"Why?"

Someone scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "We want to go to the market to buy food. There are so many delicious foods at the market."

The two of them were at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

But you can understand it if you think about it.

There is a lot of food at the market, but the dishes cooked by the chefs don’t change much.

Moreover, if I want to eat out for any meal, I probably won’t think it’s cost-effective.

"It's OK, as long as you don't regret it."

"No regrets, no regrets!"

"Then I will give you an extra 300 coins per month."

Several people were overjoyed; they thought it would be at most 200 coins, and coins was far beyond their imagination.

"Thank you, boss!"

Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi went to see the jade they had mined in the past two days. Although the quality was not top-notch, it was very good.

Chief Amo specially assigned someone to guard the tent where the jade was placed, and no one could get close.

The mining team was in a hurry to go to the market to find delicious food and did not go with them.

When we arrived at the market, it was noon and perhaps everyone had to work, so there were not as many people as last night.

But this is a huge thing for the mining team, as it is certainly good not to have to queue.

The whole street was filled with the delicious smell of food.

Everyone originally wanted to eat spicy hot pot, but as they walked along, their attention was soon attracted by other things.

When they saw the wolf tooth potatoes sold on the street, their mouths watered and they quickly lined up to buy a few.

A large bowl of potatoes cost five cents, and the two of them shared a bowl, which made them dizzy with the delicious smell.

The fragrant and spicy wolf tooth potatoes instantly became their favorite, even the spicy hot pot they had last night couldn't compare to them.

They were eating wolf-tooth potatoes, saw a cold noodle restaurant, and walked in.

After a hot morning, they want to try this cold noodles to see if it can relieve the heat.

Soon, portions of cold noodles were served on the table.

You guys look at me, I look at you.

The waiter knew at a glance that they had never eaten it before, so he quickly mixed the noodles for them.

The fresh aroma of shredded cucumber and carrot and the aroma of sesame sauce wafted out, and soon, a thick layer of sauce was evenly coated on the noodles.

"Eat."

Several people quickly picked up their chopsticks and started eating with big mouthfuls.

The icy cold noodles were chewy, smooth, tasty, and not hot at all. Everyone enjoyed them very much.

Paired with the wolf tooth potatoes they bought, it was absolutely delicious!

After finishing the noodles, they left the noodle shop, feeling so satisfied.

When they passed by Langya Potato, they found many people from the Amo tribe queuing up with big bowls in their hands.

After asking, I found out that they would come to buy a bowl of wolf tooth potatoes every now and then to eat as a meal.

To them, these wolf-tooth potatoes are even more delicious than the meat they stew themselves.

In addition to wolf tooth potatoes, people also buy fried tofu. Both snacks are not expensive and taste delicious. Some people even take two bowls, one for potatoes and one for tofu.

A few people looked at the fried tofu next to the potatoes and began to swallow their saliva again.

But when they touched their bloated stomachs, they could only hold it in.

No rush, they have only been working for a few days, we can come back to eat in the evening!

They returned to the tent, and Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi talked to them for a while, set some rules, and then left.

The miners lay down and take a nap while there is still time.

The weather is hot now, so they can take a break for an hour and a half at noon and go back to work when the sun is not so strong. However, they will have to work another half an hour in the afternoon.

After all, they had agreed before they came that they would rest for an hour at noon. If they rested longer, they naturally had to make up for it.

The mining team and the factory were working in an orderly manner, and Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi could also take a day or two off.

However, they had only been at home for one day when Lan Li arrived.

He said that the potato leaves had turned completely yellow, and he and the county magistrate had already notified the people to dig potatoes, and asked them to go and see tomorrow.

For such a big event, the two of them must go.

The next morning, herdsmen from both inside and outside the city carried hoes and went into the fields.

Every household in their area grows potatoes.

Lan Li and the county magistrate also went to the field to inspect.

The people had long since learned how to dig potatoes.

They were eager to try and couldn't wait to dig up the bag of soil to see what the potatoes inside looked like.

After Chu Changfeng, Shen Zhi and others arrived, the county magistrate ordered everyone to start digging.

The people all waved their hoes in unison.

With a hoe, big potatoes soon rolled out.

"Aaaaaah!! My potatoes are really big!"

"Each one of mine weighs two or three kilograms! You can't compare to them!"

Some people dug up the king potato at the beginning and had to use both hands to lift it.

"My house is the same! My house is big too! Bigger than yours!"

Some people were not convinced and held up big potatoes to show off.

But some people wanted to cry out loud, "My potatoes! They're rotten!"

It turned out that some people's potato digging skills were not good enough, and the hoe fell down directly, digging the potatoes in the bag of earth into two halves.

It was obviously a big potato, but it was dug up and rotten.

This is worse than digging out their flesh.

"My potatoes!"

"You can't dig potatoes like that, you have to dig at an angle so you don't damage them."

The people in the fields nearby felt sorry for the potatoes being damaged and hurried to teach them.

After crying for a while, he mastered the technique of digging potatoes, and dug out many big potatoes, and he became happy.

Everyone was digging potatoes, but they found that they had not dug much, but they had filled a large basket. The people started laughing and then started crying.

One by one, they knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Lan Li, kowtowed to the county magistrate, and even to Chu Changfeng and Shen Zhi.

They are the people of Beiyang, and their fields have never grown so much food.

This was unthinkable in the past.

But now, not only can it be grown, but the yield per mu is also shockingly high.

If they dug up all the potatoes and brought them home, how could they ever be hungry again in the future?

Therefore, the general, the county magistrate, and the Chu family who provided the potato seeds were like gods to them.

Everyone was crying bitterly, as if they wanted to vent all the grievances they had suffered from starvation and inability to grow crops for so many years.

Lan Lihe and the county magistrate stood on the edge of the field, listening to everyone's crying, with tears in their eyes.

With potatoes, they in Beiyang... no longer have to envy the people in the Central Plains, and they are not afraid of anything.
