“These two crops have high yield and taste good.”

“The sweet potato vines can be fed to pigs, while the tubers can be eaten by humans and livestock. Moreover, the tubers can be processed into tender meat powder and vermicelli.”

“In the future, as sweet potatoes become more popular in the Great Yan, the meat tenderizer powder will soon become a common seasoning for the common people.”

“Your Highness has also seen and tasted vermicelli.”

“It is very filling. It can easily be a staple food. Moreover, after the vermicelli is dried, it is light and easy to store.”

Prince Anyang nodded.

In fact, he had previously discussed with his brother-in-law the feasibility of using vermicelli as military rations.

Because at that time, Lin Xiaoyue had already promised to hand over the sweet potato seeds and let the people of Qingshi Town plant sweet potatoes in batches.

Once the sweet potatoes are ready, if the benefits were good, even if the imperial court did not interfere, the sweet potatoes would probably spread to the outside world very quickly.

In this way, it was only a matter of time before the sweet potatoes spread throughout the Great Yan.

With the raw materials, even if Ms. Lin did not reveal the method of making meat tenderizer powder and vermicelli to the public, someone would study it sooner or later.

Therefore, the price of vermicelli would come down sooner or later.

Then it would be feasible to use the vermicelli as military rations.

“Sweet potatoes are indeed very valuable. If we can spread this to the entire Great Yan, the problem of food shortage in the Great Yan might be solved.” At least it wouldn’t be so easy to starve to death.

Prince Anyang looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

“Your actions can be said to be saving the country and the people.” With that, he bowed to Lin Xiaoyue.

Lin Xiaoyue hurriedly returned the greeting.

“Your Highness, you are too kind.”

“It’s not that simple to promote sweet potatoes to the whole of Great Yan. We need the imperial court to step in.”

“However, in Anyang County, since Your Highness can make the decisions. 1 can donate 50,000 catties of sweet potatoes and potato seeds to Anyang County in the name of the Liu Industrial Park.” Lin Xiaoyue once again bowed to Prince Anyang.

Since the plan for the industrial park was about to be put on the agenda, it was time to make some plans in advance.

The meat tenderizer powder workshop and the vermicelli workshop could be prepared first.

When spring came next year, she would plant sweet potatoes. By then, she would not have to worry about not having sweet potatoes in her workshop.

The sweet potato flour was currently only supplied to the Liang Corporation, and the demand was not large.

However, the vermicelli would definitely make her a lot of money in the current and next year when food was scarce.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at Prince Anyang.

There might be another war at the border next year. If the situation was bad, Prince Anyang might even send troops to the capital.

In this way, he would also need a large amount of military rations.

Prince Anyang’s face lit up.

“Then 1 thank Ms. Lin on behalf of the people of Anyang County.” He said to Lin Xiaoyue.

Liu Industrial Park?

She definitely knew how to name things.

Right, he had heard his brother-in-law mention this before. This was called advertising.

However, there was no need to care about this. It was a great thing for the people of Anyang County and even the world that Ms. Lin was willing to donate sweet potatoes and potato seeds.

Lin Xiaoyue replied politely.

She brought Princce Anyang back to the Liu residence.

Prince Anyang felt that he had benefited a lot from chatting with Lin Xiaoyue. He wanted to continue discussing the people’s livelihood with Lin Xiaoyue, but Lin Xiaoyue walked away.

He went to watch Liu Wuji and the others play mahjong.

When he saw Princess Anyang calling him, he had no choice but to go to the table.

“Did you win?” Lin Xiaoyue smiled as she moved closer to Liu Wuji and asked him mischievously.

Before Liu Wuji could reply, Princess Anyang said, “how can he not? The Imperial Advisor is so clever, it’s as if he can see the cards in our hands!”

Liu Shi and Li Wan also agreed, looking at Liu Wuji with some vigilance.

It was as if he really suspected that his eyes could see through things.

This scene amused Lin Xiaoyue and Prince Anyang.

“Nonsense, 1 didn’t open my Heavenly Eye. How can 1 see your cards?” Liu Wuji pretended to be angry.

“It’s obvious that you didn’t pay attention to the cards in your hands. Anyone with a discerning eye would know which cards you have in your hands.”

At this moment, the old man was no longer as solemn as he was in the Imperial Advisor’s residence. He was just a cute old man.

“Hehe, yes, yes! I don’t think grandpa cheated either.” Lin Xiaoyue put her hand on Liu Wuji’s shoulder.

“Grandpa knows how to remember and count cards. It’s not surprising that you lost to him!” Lin Xiaoyue said with a smile.

Liu Wuji loved hearing that..
