Chapter 152 Potatoes and Sweet Potatoes (3)

Yang Jiu held a large earthenware bowl and carefully placed it on the table. The bowl was filled with freshly cooked potatoes and sweet potatoes, emitting a steaming aroma. He greeted them warmly, "Come on, Shopkeeper Yang, come and try this fresh-out-of-the-pot delicacy! Chef Zhu specifically instructed that it must be eaten hot for optimal flavor; it won't taste as good if it's cold."

Shopkeeper Yang stared at the potatoes and sweet potatoes in the bowl with wide eyes, and an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart. It was a feeling of heartache. If these potatoes and sweet potatoes were used for seeds, who knew how much they would yield? However, since they were already cooked, there was no point in worrying about it. It was better to enjoy the happiness brought by this delicious food. So, he imitated Yang Jiu's actions, picked up a sweet potato, gently peeled it, and took a big bite. Suddenly, the sweet smell spread, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Hmm, it's really delicious! Sweet and soft."

While Yang Jiu was chewing the sweet potato in big mouthfuls, he mumbled incoherently: "Woo, yeah, it's so delicious! I've never eaten anything so delicious..." His face was filled with a satisfied smile, as if the whole world had become beautiful.

After finishing his sweet potato, Shopkeeper Yang reached for another, expertly peeled it, and took a small bite. While not as sweet as the sweet potato, it didn't have a strange, off-putting smell either, instead possessing a light, refreshing fragrance. The potato had a fine, soft texture, and felt substantial and filling. He nodded in approval.

Yang Jiu said excitedly, "Mm, delicious, right? Master Zhu told me that these potatoes are more delicious when used in cooking and can absorb the flavors of seasonings more easily. For example, beef stew with potatoes is a classic dish from their hometown, and every restaurant has it! Right, Brother Wang?"

Don’t call him Guard Wang anymore, call him Brother Wang instead. This way we can get closer.

Wang Xiangdong: "Yes, in our area, stewed beef with potatoes is still a standard. If every household can eat stewed beef with potatoes, it means that their life has reached a moderate level of prosperity."

Shopkeeper Yang pondered Wang Xiangdong's words and nodded.

Yang Jiu didn't care about that and continued to talk to himself: "I heard from Master Zhu that there are also fried shredded potatoes, potato pancakes, potato chips, wolf tooth potatoes...ah, just thinking about it makes me drool...hiss..."

Shopkeeper Yang couldn't stand it any longer. He grabbed Yang Jiu's hand and said quickly, "Xiao Jiu, go quickly and get back all the potatoes and sweet potatoes you gave away! No, exchange them for them! I'll have my men prepare some food and then exchange them for the potatoes and sweet potatoes."

Yang Jiu looked at Shopkeeper Yang with a bewildered expression and asked doubtfully, "Shopkeeper Yang, you're not going to want to try some of these potato delicacies, are you? Master Zhu said that when she's free, she'll make some for us to try, but there's no need to rush, right?"

When Shopkeeper Yang heard this, he was furious. He raised his hand and slapped Yang Jiu's shoulder heavily, and said in a bad mood: "Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating! Don't just think about the things in front of you, go quickly! If you delay any longer, those potatoes will become food in other people's stomachs!" After that, Shopkeeper Yang hurried out like a gust of wind, and while walking, he ordered the guys to prepare food and carriages.

Wang Xiangdong, who was standing by, knew very well why Manager Yang was so anxious. If they went too late, there might be no raw materials available for breeding.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiangdong immediately said, "How about this, I'll go with you and help you exchange the potatoes and sweet potatoes."

Yang Jiu was still confused at this time, chewing a sweet potato, and was pulled out of the door by Wang Xiangdong.
