Because of Li Chengqian's existence, many bizarre things are destined to happen in the eyes of contemporary people.

For example, this manor does not belong to this era at all.

When you walk in, you can feel the modern atmosphere.

In the huge manor, greenhouses covered with transparent plastic sheets stood proudly facing the sun.

Li Chengqian was familiar with the road and led the two of them into a greenhouse.

Even though there is still snow outside that has not yet melted, it is as warm as spring inside the greenhouse.

The fertile black land was planted with various crops that Changsun Wuji and Cheng Huailiang had never seen before.

And these are without exception.

All of them were redeemed by Li Chengqian from the system store.

"My dear!"

"What are these!"

Cheng Yaojin stared at a round fruit and looked at it again and again: "Your Highness, what is this?"

"This is called tomato, and it came from the Western Regions."

Li Chengqian smiled and said: "It tastes sour, sweet and refreshing. Uncle Cheng can pick one and try it."

Cheng Yaojin stretched out his hand and hesitated for a long time before picking a tomato.

Looking at the red fruit in his hand, Cheng Yaojin licked his lips.

To be honest, he really didn't dare to eat this food.

Tomatoes were only introduced to China in the mid-Ming Dynasty.

People of this era have never seen it, let alone eaten it.

Seeing his appearance, Li Chengqian smiled helplessly.

He reached out and picked a tomato and threw it to Changsun Wuji.

"Uncle, you're welcome, let's have a taste together."

Then, he picked another one for himself and took a big bite of the flesh like eating fruit.

Li Chengqian said with a happy face: "Sweet, so refreshing!"

Saw him eating.

Only Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin dared to put tomatoes in their mouths.

At the beginning, the two of them were a little hesitant.

But when the pulp entered the mouth and the sweet and sour juice bloomed in their mouths, their expressions changed.

"Yeah! That's great!"

Changsun Wuji said with surprise: "It tastes just like big grapes!"

Cheng Yaojin swallowed the tomato in three mouthfuls, and then, still not satisfied, he reached out and picked another tomato: "Your Highness, can this be mass-produced like watermelon?"

"Of course."

"And this can be eaten as more than just fruit."

Li Chengqian said with a smile: "It can also be used for stir-frying."

"Eat it fried?"

Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin were both stunned.

This thing that is more delicious and refreshing than ordinary fruits can actually be fried and eaten?

Both of them were a little surprised.

Li Chengqian didn't explain much about this.

In fact, when tomatoes were first introduced to China, they were indeed used as fruits for a long time.

It was only later that the great Chinese cooks discovered the wonderful uses of tomatoes and allowed them to come to the dining table and bid farewell to the fruit world completely.

"If you two like it, come back to the East Palace and I'll ask the chef to cook it for you."

"We are short on time and have heavy tasks, so let's talk about business first!"

Li Chengqian pointed to his feet: "Have you seen the bottom of our feet? This is the business I just told you."

The two looked confused.

Underfoot? earth?

"Your Highness."

"Are you kidding me?"

Cheng Yaojin took a bite of the tomato and said puzzledly: "What kind of business is this..."

After all, there is a shortage of everything in the world except soil.

To whom can the soil be sold?

Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes and said angrily: "Superficial!"

"I'm talking about the bottom of your feet."

"Can you take a closer look before you speak?"

As soon as these words came out, Cheng Yaojin and Changsun Wuji lowered their heads and looked down along the tomato branches.

When they saw the soil under the rhizome clearly, they couldn't help but be stunned.

At first, they really didn't notice it.

The soil here is obviously different from that outside.

The soil outside is either yellow or brown.

But the soil here is the same color, all black, as if it had just been sprinkled with water.

Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but grab a handful and put it under his nose, sniffed, and his expression changed obviously.

Changsun Wuji looked up at Li Chengqian and said, "Did you transport the soil here from outside?"

"Not really."

“The soil is the local soil.”

Li Chengqian squatted on the ground, looked straight at the soil and said, "It's just that I put some other things in it."

"Added something? What did you add?"

Cheng Yaojin asked with a blank look on his face.

"add……"

But before Li Chengqian could finish speaking, he was suddenly stunned.

Because while he was speaking, Cheng Yaojin actually stuck out his tongue to add some dirt in his hand.

Seeing the change in Li Chengqian's eyes, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

He asked in confusion: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like this?"

"Uh, nothing..."

Li Chengqian laughed dryly and said: "I added the chemical fertilizer I researched to this soil!"

What is chemical fertilizer?

Changsun Wuji and Cheng Yaojin were filled with questions.

In the minds of contemporary people, there is no concept of chemical fertilizer.

Li Chengqian did not hesitate and simply explained the fertilizer formula to the two of them.

But when Li Chengqian mentioned an element in fertilizer, Cheng Yaojin couldn't hold back...
