Chapter 153 Fancy Promotion

The other people stared at the bachelor with wide eyes and asked, "How is it?", but the bachelor only knew how to eat it and didn't care about answering. People who knew him couldn't help but curse, "Ergouzi, you are a starving ghost! Is it delicious, you say something!"

The bachelor's mouth was filled with roasted potato meat, and he said vaguely, "Good... Tasty! So... So delicious!" The other people were moved when they saw that he didn't look like he was telling lies, and they all said, "Master, I want it too!"

In the blink of an eye, the people rushed to share the roasted sweet potatoes. The people who had eaten them all licked their lips with some desire and said, "It's so delicious! It's fragrant and sweet!" There are only a few people who can get roasted sweet potatoes, and the people who can't squeeze in from behind were a little itchy when they saw their appearance, and they all started to yell, "We want it too!"

Guo Zhiyuan wanted this effect and said loudly, "Don't worry, fellow villagers, there are more sweet potato foods behind, and I'm here to come. I promise you can taste them all. Please give them a try to the villagers who have already tasted the sweet potato foods, so that the villagers who have not tasted them later can also taste them..."

Now Guo Zhiyuan has a high prestige in Gutian County. When he shouted, the people behind him dared not make noise. The people who had eaten roasted sweet potatoes before also gave up their seats with some embarrassment, but they did not leave. They still stayed in the crowd to see what kind of delicacies Guo Zhiyuan could tinker with next.

This time, Guo Zhiyuan recommended steamed sweet potatoes. Although steamed sweet potatoes are not as fragrant as roasted sweet potatoes, they are sweeter than roasted sweet potatoes. People in this era are very sensitive to sweetness, because sugar is a luxury for them and is not something that ordinary people can eat, so they are also popular with the people and are praised endlessly.

There are quite a lot of people coming today, but there are afraid there are thousands of people. So even if each person only has a small mouthful, many people still don’t eat sweet potato food. Seeing that more and more lids are opened, fewer and fewer leftover pots without the lid, so those who didn’t eat them later were a little anxious. However, after seeing the next pot with the lid, their eyes lit up again because it was a full pot of sweet potato rice! The white rice was decorated with golden sweet potatoes, which looked very beautiful. Although the people who had not eaten sweet potatoes still don’t know what the sweet potato tasted, they just saw the sweet potato rice and felt that they had made a profit today!

After the sweet potato rice, the sweet potato porridge is cooked and the rice and sweet potatoes are completely mixed together. The taste is much better than the porridge that the people usually drink. Moreover, the porridge with sweet potatoes is more likely to feel full and more resistant to hunger. Because there are too many people coming, they can only use a bowl to pass it on and take a small sip. However, the sweet and glutinous taste makes the taste buds on their tongues explode. Fortunately, people's hygiene concepts in this era are not strong, and they will not feel disgusted by sharing the same bowl with others. If they were not concerned about face, they would really want to lick the bowls with their tongues!

The sweet potato porridge is the finale - fried potato chips! This is also specially prepared by Guo Zhiyuan to ensure that everyone who comes to tastes the deliciousness of sweet potatoes. He specially hired a chef with the best knife skills to cut a sweet potato into hundreds of thin potato chips. In this way, everyone on the scene can get several slices. Needless to say, the taste of the fried potato chips is fragrant and crispy. Many ordinary people think that this is definitely the best thing they have ever eaten in their lives! If they are impatient, they throw a few slices into their mouths and eat them all in a few seconds. People who can live only taste one slice by themselves, and the remaining slices are prepared to take them back for their relatives who have not come.

All the sweet potatoes and delicacies were eaten, but the common people were still reluctant to leave. Guo Zhiyuan knew that his method of promoting sweet potatoes had worked. He waved his hand and shouted loudly, "My fellow villagers, do you think today's sweet potato food is delicious?"

"Delicious!" The people below answered neatly as if they were made by one person!

"Would you like to eat such delicacies every day?"

This time the answer was not neat, and some answers were "Yes!", but more of them were "How is it possible?!" and "If I could eat such delicious food every day, I would rather live a few years less".

Guo Zhiyuan laughed and said loudly, "It's very simple. As long as you go to your strengths and register according to your household registration, you can get the sweet potato seedlings sent to you from the county government. This official will send someone to teach you how to plant sweet potato seedlings. As long as you plant according to our method, you will definitely get a good harvest. When the harvest is completed, you only need to return a sweet potato seed in the county government. The remaining sweet potatoes are enough for you to eat for half a year!"

The people below immediately cheered. Chen Zhenlong, standing in the corner of the platform, looked at the excited scene and couldn't help but sigh to Xu Guangqi beside him, "Mr. Guo is really amazing. He can come up with so many tricks to promote sweet potato planting. Lao Chen's frog in the well is an eye-opener. If the Governor Jin could use Master Guo's method, the effect would have been much better..."

Xu Guangqi was no longer surprised by Guo Zhiyuan's amazing actions from time to time. He smiled slightly and said, "Young Master Xiong is a talented man, this is just a small test..."

Chen Zhenlong originally didn't want his son Chen Jinglun to have too many relationships with the people in the government. He thought it was unwise for Chen Jinglun to volunteer to help Guo Zhiyuan find corn and potatoes. Now he secretly hopes that Chen Jinglun can succeed. Following Guo Zhiyuan, a talented and magistrate, perhaps their Chen family can also shine. It may not be necessary to become a prominent family in the local area in the future!

In the other corner of the stage, the poisonous king bee looked at Guo Zhiyuan who was so energetic on the stage, with a flash of light in her eyes. She was wondering why there were so many strange ideas in this person's mind. A small sweet potato could play so many tricks. Before, she was always resentful of being defeated by Guo Zhiyuan with a "conspiracy" and thought that Guo Zhiyuan was not good at winning. So she obviously had the chance to escape but was unwilling to leave. She just hoped to know more about Guo Zhiyuan and defeat him openly in the future. But now she began to doubt whether her decision was wise, because the more she understood Guo Zhiyuan, the stronger her curiosity about this person, and on the contrary, her hostility towards him was gradually dissipating. She suspected that if she stayed there, she would completely lose her confidence in seeking revenge on Guo Zhiyuan!
