Xiang Hongxuan didn't say anything, but the eldest prince came closer.

He said, "It's really good. It's much better than any potato I've ever had."

Shen Tingyao also said: "Yes, especially the mashed potatoes."

The eldest prince glanced at Xiang Hongxuan who was silent, patted him and said, "Don't be silent, don't you think it tastes good?"

Xiang Hongxuan: “Average.”

The eldest prince and others didn't know, but Li Fei and Zhao Ling knew very well that the general didn't like to waste time on eating.

He also has no requirements for food.

According to his previous indifferent attitude, the word "average" was already a high evaluation.

The eldest prince rolled his eyes at Xiang Hongxuan and said, "Is this just okay? You really have no taste. What do you think, Pan Ye?"

Pan Ye nodded out of courtesy.

Shen Jinyao knew that these dishes were not actually that delicious or amazing.

Everyone thinks it tastes good simply because it’s the first time they’re eating it.

Second, it is an uncommon food.

Third, the potatoes in her space were very soft and even a little sweet.

The methods she used basically retained the original deliciousness of potatoes, so most people were satisfied.

At present, Xiang Hongxuan is the only one who feels it is average.

Shen Jinyao smiled and said, "The general is indeed different from ordinary people. His food requirements are much higher than others."

Xiang Hongxuan frowned slightly. He wanted to say that it was not the case, but in the end he said nothing.

The eldest prince burst into laughter after hearing this, and took the opportunity to ridicule Xiang Hongxuan: "Haha, he has been different from others since he was a child. He is very annoying."

Shen Jinyao didn't dare to respond, but changed the subject.

She said, "General, do you have any questions? If you have no questions, you can go to the field with me to pick potatoes now."

Xiang Hongxuan: "How long can potatoes be stored?"

When Shen Jinyao heard this question, it seemed that this matter was about to be accomplished.

She said, "I wonder if it will snow in Quzhou? If it's in a colder place, we can put it directly in the vegetable cellar, or put it outside to freeze."

"Twenty days at most, no problem."

"But if it sprouts, don't eat it."

In fact, Shen Jinyao has tried it many times and there was no major problem after eating it.

But that’s modern times, and medical conditions are very convenient.

It was ancient times now, and she didn't dare to say anything careless.

Xiang Hongxuan nodded and said, "Name a price?"

Shen Jinyao said, "General, you are not an outsider. I will give you the lowest price. How much do you want?"

Xiang Hongxuan looked at the chef in the kitchen camp. The chef thought for a moment and said, "It must be at least 500 kilograms."

Shen Jinyao agreed very much. If potatoes are eaten as a staple food, they will be consumed relatively quickly.

"Then I'll give it to you at the lowest price of twenty coins per pound. How about that?"

Xiang Hongxuan said without even thinking, "Okay."

He didn't know how to do business, and he had no idea what the lowest price Shen Jinyao was talking about meant. He just wanted to know how many kilograms of potatoes were needed and how much money he would need.

The eldest prince heard this and said, "This is very suitable. I'm sure other states will need it too. And other border areas..."

Shen Jinyao: "Why? The eldest prince also wants to do potato business with me?"

The eldest prince closed his folding fan, shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'm not that cut out for it."

Shen Jinyao was still worried that they would think the price was too high. After all, ordinary people would think that twenty cents was not a small amount.

But she forgot that the people she was talking to were neither businessmen nor ordinary people.

Also, potatoes are a rare food for them, so it is reasonable that they are more expensive.

So even the people in the kitchen camp thought it was not expensive at all.

What's more, Shen Jinyao just emphasized that potatoes can be stored for a long time.

You can even eat potatoes directly as steamed buns.

This business deal for the military camp was concluded in this way.

When Shen Jinyao was leaving, she looked for Xiang Hongxuan alone.

"General Xiang, there is something I need your help with."

Xiang Hongxuan raised his eyebrows, "You actually need my help?"

Shen Jinyao knew that she had left a bad impression on Xiang Hongxuan, so she said, "General Xiang is such a joke. Although I saved you that time, wasn't it because you were in dire straits?"

Shen Jinyao did it on purpose.

She just wanted to mention that she had saved Xiang Hongxuan before.

She was Yao who reminded Xiang Hongxuan not to treat his savior like this.

Sure enough, Xiang Hongxuan turned around when he heard this.

He said, "What is it?"

Shen Jinyao: "I'll have to trouble General Xiang to write a letter to Master Kang, telling him that the potatoes are ripe and he can come pick them up."

Xiang Hongxuan: "Just this matter?"

Shen Jinyao nodded: "Yes, your letter will be more effective than mine."

Xiang Hongxuan thought about it and felt that this was not a difficult thing, so he nodded and agreed.

"By the way, last time your eldest brother said that I lent you money? What money?"

Shen Jinyao didn't expect that Shen Zhizheng had already sold her out.

She blinked her eyes, laughed, and said, "Haha, I guess the General heard it wrong. By the way, where is Tingyao?"

Xiang Hongxuan felt that Shen Jinyao was avoiding the topic, but he didn't think much about it.

"I left with the eldest prince."

"what?"

Xiang Hongxuan saw that Shen Jinyao's face was not very good, and added, "It was Tingyao who called the eldest prince away."

The expression on Shen Jinyao's face became even uglier. She thought, could it be that Tingyao wanted to attack the eldest prince?

At this time, the eldest prince and Shen Tingyao were in a corner of the military camp.

The eldest prince didn't expect Shen Tingyao to look for him. After being rejected by Shen Tingyao last time, he felt a little embarrassed.

But when he saw Shen Tingyao this time, he thought again, after all, she was a noble lady from the Marquis' Mansion, so it was normal for her to be a little arrogant.

So he instantly forgave Shen Tingyao for her unreasonable behavior last time.

In fact, the eldest prince forgot everything when he saw Shen Tingyao's face.

"for you."

"what?"

When the eldest prince saw the jade pendant in Tingyao's hand, he remembered that he was too anxious that day and actually forgot about the jade pendant.

"Oh, thank you."

"How's life in Wuhe Village lately?"

Shen Tingyao smiled and said, "It's pretty good. I hope the eldest prince will not hold a grudge against Tingyao for her recklessness last time. After all, I am Mr. Zhao's savior."

Shen Tingyao came here this time, partly to give him the jade pendant, but more importantly, she wanted to repair her relationship with the eldest prince.

She didn't want to offend the eldest prince at all.

She just speaks more directly and thinks more slowly.

But she couldn't afford to offend someone of the eldest prince's status.

She couldn't help but feel a little scared when she thought about how she used the hairpin to scare the eldest prince.

But Jin Yao told her that it would be best if she could talk things over calmly with the eldest prince.

Shen Tingyao gave the eldest prince a way out, and the eldest prince took the opportunity to step down.

"Tingyao, what you said is not true. If you don't know how to use a hairpin, I might not be alive."

Shen Jinyao, who was not far away, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she heard this.

Xiang Hongxuan, who was standing behind her, also understood what was going on from the conversation between the two people.
