Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone became excited when they heard that Chief Su would distribute seeds at the start of spring. The group could also borrow seeds from Su Binglan first and return what they owed after the harvest.

If someone else had said it, they might not believe it. However, everyone believed in Su Binglan. Moreover, Chief Su was the most respected person in the village who did many things for the villagers.

One of the most important things he did was give everyone rapeseeds. The villagers had planted the seeds during winter. When they went to the fields to look, they realized the seeds had grown a lot.

However, most wanted to keep the rapeseed and extract oil from them. After all, everyone had enough to eat and could let the rapeseed grow instead of eating them.

They could extract and keep the oil harvested from the seeds. When planting peanuts during spring, the villagers could use less of their land. That was because the rapeseed produced more oil than peanuts.

They could save a little land to plant more wheat and other things.

‘Miss Su had good crops, and Chief Su will distribute seeds to everyone. When the time comes, we can use our extra land to grow these seeds.’

Everyone felt relieved with those thoughts in mind. Although the land had not changed much, everyone felt they could grow more crops. Moreover, they could produce more oil than ever.

One of them told Su Binglan, “My family has a few acres of land, so I’ll buy the potato and sweet potato seeds you mentioned.”

Another echoed, ‘Yes, I’ll buy them too. I heard the yield would be high, so I’m excited.’

“My family and I will also buy some. I heard your rice yield was substantial last year, Miss Su. Your family produced twice as much compared to other families. My mother even exchanged rice seeds with you.”

“My family did the same thing. We intend on planting them soon and hope for a yield as high as yours. Everything Miss Su gives us is excellent.”

No one doubted Su Binglan. They worked for her diligently and improved their daily lives. The villagers even called Su Binglan an angel who descended into the mortal world to help and save everyone in need.

Hence, everyone wanted to visit Su Binglan on New Year’s Day.

After listening to everyone’s discussion, she went to the family’s warehouse to get some potatoes and sweet potatoes. She said, “I’ll roast these for everyone to eat.”

The group looked at the things in Su Binglan’s basket. One asked, “Are those potatoes and sweet potatoes?”

“l know how to use potatoes to make various dishes. I heard Drunken Cloud’s signature dish is the sour and spicy potato pancakes.”

“l heard that too, but I’ve never tried it. Still, everyone who has tried it says it’s delicious.’

“Did you forget that we ate hotpot in town? They have potatoes in their hotpot. ”

Dong Xiaolei, Li Erying, and the others nodded. They had eaten hotpot and remembered having potatoes there.

“We’ve had potatoes before. They become soft after cooking.”

“My uncle served a stew with potatoes and chicken for his wedding.”

The group understood what potatoes tasted like after discussing it for a while. Everyone was excited and could not wait to have them.

Su Binglan could not help but laugh when she heard their discussions. “Potatoes are good for meals. You can stew, fry, or even boil them.”

The more the group listened, the more excited they became. Yao Cuihua said, “If we grow potatoes at home, we can eat them as much as we want. That’s perfect. I wonder how many acres of them I can plant at home.”

After gaining her in-laws’ respect, she felt more confident speaking and making decisions at home. The family would listen whenever she expressed her opinions. Of course, all of her suggestions were good for the family.

She wondered how many acres she should use for the potatoes because the family had other things to plant.

Su Binglan smiled. “The yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes should be high.

You can produce a few thousand pounds in one acre. So, you don’t need more than one acre.’

“What?! That’s a lot!” Lin Dahua’s jaw dropped. “Did I mishear?”

The group used to farm for a living and knew what harvesting a few thousand acres meant. Of course, they were excited to learn they could harvest so much with just one acre of land.

“That’s right. You can produce a few thousand pounds of potatoes with just one acre.” Su Binglan did not specify how many thousand because the things from her pocket dimension might give a higher yield.

The villagers could produce at least three to four thousand pounds of potatoes, which was enough to shock them. Everyone grew wheat, corn, peanuts, and rice in this era, but the yield was never that high.

If every household planted potato and sweet potato seeds, they would not starve and could rely on their harvests to survive. At that moment, the group was confident they had not misheard Su Binglan’s claims.

“We’ll buy the potato and sweet potato seeds.” Yao Cuihua had many mouths to feed and plenty of land. She even considered selling her harvests if she had more.

She knew anyone would want to buy potatoes and sweet potatoes because these were valuable resources. Even if she sold them cheaply, it would still be worth it because she anticipated a high production.

Su Binglan smiled and said, “Don’t worry, everyone. We have more than enough potatoes and sweet potatoes. I’ll roast some later for you guys to try.” The group looked at her with eager eyes when they heard that.

Su Binglan put many sweet potatoes and potatoes on the stove, saying, “All right, enjoy the melon seeds while the potatoes cook. You can eat the potatoes soon. ”

Everyone nodded and continued to chat. However, the group occasionally looked toward the pot on the stove, wondering when they could eat the potatoes.

Su Binglan noticed their expressions and knew what they were thinking. Occasionally, she would check on the potatoes as the rest chatted. When the potatoes finally finished cooking, she pulled them out and said, “All right, everyone. Come and try these..”
