After the time for an incense stick to burn.
Ying Zheng and Zhao Gao brought Gongsun Liji to the tavern in the west of the city.
In case Gongsun Liji knew their true identities, they didn't sit in the same carriage as her.
"Old Zhao, you guys are really good. You actually brought Miss Gongsun to me?”
After Lin Xuan saw the graceful Gongsun Liji, he laughed loudly.
A few days ago, he had only casually mentioned it to Young Master Shang. He did not expect Old Zhao to actually bring him here.
After saying that, Lin Xuan immediately brought Gongsun Liji into the wine shop.
"But Old Zhao, why did you put this black mask on Miss Gongsun?”
"Are you afraid that she will take revenge on you after seeing your appearance?”
After Lin Xuan brought Gongsun Liji into the kitchen, he joked with a smile.
Gongsun Liji was wearing a black mask. Although it didn't affect her breathing, she couldn't see anything after wearing it.
"I, Old Zhao, am not afraid of revenge."
"Isn't it because of her beauty and too many admirers that I put a headgear on Miss Gongsun?”
"There are hundreds of them in the State of Wei alone, so in order to prevent unnecessary trouble on the way back to Qin, Miss Gongsun had to wear a headgear for a few days.”
Old Zhao lied with a straight face.
He said it without blushing or jumping, as if it was true!
In fact, there were hundreds of Gongsun Liji's admirers in the State of Wei.
However, this was not the main reason why Old Zhao put a headgear on Gongsun Liji.
The main reason was that Old Zhao was afraid of exposing his identity and letting Gongsun Liji know that he was the Zhongche Prefecture Order of the State of Qin. From there, Lin Xuan would know Young Master Shang's true identity!
"Does the State of Wei really have hundreds of suitors?”
Lin Xuan ignored Old Zhao and looked at Gongsun Liji's limpid eyes.
Gongsun Liji's face was slightly flushed, and under the sunlight shining through the paper window, she looked indescribably charming.
Gongsun Liji nodded slightly.
She lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes covering her eyes, and her white jade-like teeth were lightly exposed.
"As expected of the woman I like."
Lin Xuan suddenly raised Li Ji's chin and looked at her exquisite face with a smile.
With that, Lin Xuan brought the food he had prepared for him to Old Zhao and Young Master Shang.
Li Ji glared at Lin Xuan when she heard this, but her face also turned red.
She had guessed that Lin Xuan was most likely not a gentleman, but she did not expect him to be a lecher!
"You lecher actually dared to touch me as soon as you came up. If we were in the Wei Country General's Estate, my grandfather would definitely tear you into pieces!”
Looking at Lin Xuan's gradually disappearing back, Gongsun Liji snorted coldly and said angrily.
She was the granddaughter of the Great General of the State of Wei, Gongsun Yu, and the junior sister of Jing Ke.
"Shopkeeper Lin, are you satisfied?"
After Lin Xuan brought the food to the wooden table, Old Zhao was not in a hurry to eat and asked with a smile.
He was looking forward to Lin Xuan's answer.
After all, he had spent so much effort and traveled night and day for several days. He had risked offending Wei Guo to bring Gongsun Liji back to Lin Xuan. If Lin Xuan was not satisfied, wouldn't he suffer a huge loss?
Lin Xuan was stunned when he heard this. Then, he turned around and looked at the flustered Gongsun Liji in the kitchen. In the end, he smiled and nodded.
He had to admit that the tall Gongsun Liji was indeed good-looking.
And even when she was angry, she had a unique beauty.
"That's good, that's good."
Old Zhao heaved a sigh of relief.
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, the huge rock in his heart finally fell.
After all, a peerless genius like Lin Xuan could even predict the future. Who knew how high his standards would be?
Therefore, although everyone felt that Gongsun Liji was as beautiful as a fairy, Old Zhao was still afraid that Lin Xuan would not like her!
"Shopkeeper Lin, is this another new dish you invented?”
"It's so dark. How can I eat it?”
Old Zhao put the black lump back on the plate and asked in confusion.
To be honest, both he and Young Master Shang were a little hungry now, but they had no way to eat this thing!
"If you think it's black, why don't you peel off its skin and eat it?”
"This thing is called sweet potato. It tastes very good.”
"People from the Western Regions all like to eat it."
Lin Xuan introduced himself.
In his impression, this kind of steaming hot roasted sweet potato was loved by both the elderly and children.
Young Master Shang and Old Zhao nodded thoughtfully. They picked up two fist-sized roasted sweet potatoes and slowly peeled off the charred skin.
"It's actually so beautiful inside?"
"And isn't this too fragrant?"
When Zhao Gao saw the golden yellow soil of the roasted sweet potato, he couldn't help but sniff it a few times. Then, he swallowed half of it in one gulp, ignoring the heat.
After he bit off half of the roasted sweet potato, although it was too hot to swallow, he still happily gave Lin Xuan two thumbs up.
Gongsun Liji, who was hiding in the kitchen, saw Zhao Gao's satisfied expression and was envious!
Although Gongsun Liji didn't know what the roasted sweet potatoes tasted like, she instinctively began to drool when she smelled the fragrance from afar.
"Young Master Shang, this roasted sweet potato is too delicious.”
"Not only is it sweet and delicious, but it's also hot and soft.”
Old Zhao was overjoyed.
If he could eat such a hot roasted sweet potato in the cold winter, he would be willing to spend any amount of money!
Young Master Shang also tried a few mouthfuls.
Fragrant, sweet, noodle, sticky, hot.
After taking a bite, Young Master Shang's entire body started to heat up, and that feeling was very comfortable!
"Shopkeeper Lin, how many more roasted sweet potatoes do you have? Bring them all up. I'll eat at least twenty today!”
Old Zhao held the hot roasted sweet potato in his hand and was ecstatic.
He really liked that golden, soft, and hot melon flesh!
"I can give you as much as you want today.”
"But if you think that sweet potatoes are only delicious, then you are very wrong.”
On the account that Old Zhao had brought Gongsun Liji back, Lin Xuan decided to tell Old Zhao a way to become rich.
In this era, the yield of grain per mu was only a few hundred catties. It was too little!
"Oh? Could it be that the delicious taste was not the biggest advantage of this sweet potato?”
Young Master Shang's interest was piqued.
Old Zhao immediately held his chin with both hands and pretended to listen attentively.
They really wanted to know what other uses sweet potatoes had besides being delicious!
"Of course not."
"Although sweet potatoes are delicious, there are too many delicious things in the Western Regions.”
"For example, the tomatoes and peppers that you ate before. Which one of them doesn't taste amazing?”
Lin Xuan shook his head and asked Old Zhao and Young Master Shang.
Old Zhao and Young Master Shang recalled the hot chili peppers and sweet and sour tomatoes and nodded.
"Shopkeeper Lin, don't keep me in suspense. What's the biggest advantage of this sweet potato?”
Old Zhao licked his lips and asked curiously.
Young Master Shang and Gongsun Liji were also looking forward to Lin Xuan's answer.
"This thing produces at least 500 kilograms per mu!"
Lin Xuan saw Old Zhao and Young Master Shang's impatient expressions and answered truthfully.
In fact, under normal circumstances in the future, the yield of sweet potatoes per mu was about 5,000 catties.
However, considering that there was no fertilizer in this era, and the soil quality was different from the future, Lin Xuan said the most conservative number!
Even so, Old Zhao and Young Master Shang were still shocked.
"This thing can actually produce 500 kilograms per mu?"
"If that's the case, then it'll be a prosperous era!”
Zhao Gao widened his eyes and looked at Lin Xuan in disbelief.
