Su Daji, Who Had Never Seen the World
Ye Xuan was pleasantly surprised to see these things.
Especially crops with extremely short growing seasons, such as buckwheat and corn.
If planted properly and alternately, two harvests can be achieved in a year, which would greatly increase the yield.
In addition, sweet potatoes have an extremely high yield. Even in extremely harsh growing environments, they can still grow very vigorously. Even if the seedlings are cut in two, or even into three, four, or five sections, they can still survive and produce a very high yield.
More importantly, things like cabbage and radishes were also discovered.
With these things, even in the winter when resources are extremely scarce, there is no need to worry about vegetables and other necessities.
"Tnnd--------"
"Ever since I transmigrated to this world, my mouth has been so bland it's practically tasteless—"
"Now we have hairy crabs, lobsters, and even bird's eye chilies! Tonight we're having hot pot!"
Just thinking about hot pot made Ye Xuan's mouth water.
Although he has now become Quasi-Saint level powerhouse, he has never wanted to give up his love of food.
If a person even gives up the pleasure of eating, what joy is left?
You should know that he's a typical freeloader.
"Everyone, go away, go away. Standing here is getting on my nerves."
Ye Xuan dismissed the assembled civil and military officials.
He turned around and looked at Wushuang and Su Daji behind him.
"Come, come, follow me. With these rare and wonderful things, let's enjoy them together. I'll cook you a delicious meal and broaden your horizons, hehe--------"
Actually, he has a petty mentality; he enjoys seeing others as naive and unsophisticated.
Su Daji also became interested:
"Your Majesty, I didn't expect you to be in such high spirits today."
Wushuang also stood to one side, looking quite interested.
Ye Xuan chuckled and picked up something from the ground, then began to show it off.
"This little red thing looks ordinary, but it's actually a secret treasure. It's called a small red chili pepper, a condiment. If eaten raw, it causes a burning sensation in the mouth, which most people can't handle and might mistake for poisoning."
"But in fact, if used properly, it can create an incredibly delicious flavor, which was also my favorite."
He recalled the incredibly spicy hot pot of later generations, and couldn't help but swallow hard.
"Daji, Wushuang, this fist-sized red thing is called a tomato, also known as a red tomato. It's sweet and sour and extremely delicious. Come, come, have a taste."
As he spoke, he picked up two fist-sized fruits and handed them to the two men.
Upon hearing this, the two looked at it with great interest, and Su Daji took the first bite.
Sure enough, she found it to be incredibly juicy, with a sweet and sour flavor that stimulated her taste buds, giving her an unprecedented sense of joy.
She was genuinely pleasantly surprised, wondering how the Human Emperor had learned of these things, so delicious.
Wushuang also took a bite, and the delightful taste instantly excited her.
"It's really delicious!"
Seeing that the two looked like they had never seen the world before, Ye Xuan burst into laughter.
"Try this too. It's called lychee, and it comes from the south. It's incredibly delicious."
Ye Xuan then personally demonstrated how to peel the skin.
Soon, a crystal-clear, pure white lychee appeared in his hand.
He turned around and put it into Wushuang's mouth.
Wushuang a bite of her pearly teeth, Wushuang was immediately captivated by a flavor that stimulated her taste buds.
Upon experiencing this sensation, Wushuang's eyes lit up.
Although this thing was just an ordinary item, its taste was in no way inferior to rare spiritual fruits, which really surprised her.
Seeing Wushuang's Wushuang and unsophisticated expression, Ye Xuan felt a sense of smug satisfaction.
"There are many things you've never seen before, and not all the delicious foods in the world are controlled by gods and Buddhas. Take this for example."
As he spoke, Ye Xuan took out a huge green fruit.
He drew the Human Emperor Supreme Sword from his waist and sliced the fruit in half.
It immediately revealed the bright red flesh inside, interspersed with black seeds, making it look quite appealing.
With a swift stroke of the sword, he sliced out triangles.
He picked up two pieces and handed them to the two people.
The two took a bite with a puzzled look, then their eyes widened and they froze in place.
Clearly, something incredible had happened; this fruit was incredibly juicy, almost melting in the mouth.
The incredibly sweet taste immediately captivated the two of them.
The feeling of being clean and refreshed is simply indescribable.
How is this item?
"Is this really not a spiritual fruit? The taste is much better than most spiritual fruits. Taking a bite is refreshing and cool, it's really comfortable."
Even the well-informed Nine-Tailed Fox Lord of Green Mound, was amazed.
Upon hearing his question, Ye Xuan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
This is nothing special at all; it's just a watermelon, which became extremely popular in later generations.
As Ye Xuan introduced these amazing species to the two of them, he led them to taste them, always leaving them speechless with amazement.
Seeing that the two looked like they had never seen the world before, Ye Xuan was still not satisfied.
"You two just wait here. I'll cook for you both in a bit, so you can both broaden your horizons."
Upon hearing this, Wushuang was immediately taken aback.
"Your Majesty, you are of noble birth; how can you personally cook? Such matters are improper and utterly unseemly. I will arrange for the imperial chefs to come immediately."
Ye Xuan stopped her.
"They can't make these things, so I'll cook them myself, so you two can taste my culinary skills."
Su Daji, standing to the side, also seemed to sense something was amiss. After all, Ye Xuan was the current Human Emperor; how could he do such rude things?
However, seeing that His Majesty seemed to be in high spirits, she held back and remained silent.
Ye Xuan just wanted to show off and impress people.
He soon led many maids to begin processing the hairy crabs and crayfish.
Now that we have some small red chilies, plus some other seasonings we already have, we can make some extremely authentic spicy crayfish.
I believe that once it's made, it will surely make these two beauties unable to resist.
Having been a time traveler, their skills were clearly extremely adept, and they quickly finished processing the hairy crabs, crayfish, and other seafood.
After preparing the chili peppers and other ingredients, they were set aside for later use.
