Chapter 38 Discovering Beetroot
Baiyunxi sat on the ground and took a deep breath silently. It took him a while to catch his breath. He looked down at the grass in his hand. Just as he was about to throw it out, he discovered that a large radish-like stem had fallen from the root.
The stem is straight, the leaves are oblong, and the petiole is long. The rhizome is like a cone, like a hammer...
Bai Yunxi stared blankly at the thing in his hand. An idea flashed in his head. He took out a handkerchief and wiped the soil from the root, then lay down and took a bite.
The taste is not very good, but it is a familiar taste.
Put one bowl to Baiyunxi’s hand, and hold the other bowl for yourself to drink.

Baiyunxi looked at him, the child was too quiet.
This area is estimated to be three to four points of land. Looking at the newly pulled beets, they are as big as half a football. It can be seen that the mountain col is very suitable for their growth.
"Mom, what are you carrying?" Hearing my mother calling him, Bai Anyan threw down his **** and rushed over. Looking at the things in the basket, what was the lump that looked like a radish and a sweet potato?
“Beet, good stuff.”
Five or six pills filled the basket, which was really quite big.
Beets are a good thing. Not only can they be used to make sucrose, but they can also be used to make beet soup, which has a great taste.
Things in the mountains are ownerless and belong to whoever sees them.
In the original world, sugar beet was an introduced species. Later, some scholars also discovered wild beets, and both imported and wild beets can be used to make sucrose.
A little more and she would be paralyzed from exhaustion.
"It doesn't taste good, but you can drink it." Baiyunxi waved his hand, "Hurry up and drive back. I'll tell you when I'm done."
Bai Anyan greeted Li, and the two of them turned to go home, leaving Bai Ansheng alone to clean up the tree roots.
"Can this thing be eaten?" Bai Anyan looked at the ugly beets and asked with a frown.
It’s easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down. I had a basket full of beetroots and had to rest three times along the way before I reached the wasteland.
One hundred and seventy-eight. Seventy-five. Two hundred and fifty-five. Two hundred and one
Bai Ansheng stopped what he was doing, lifted the weed roots in the basket to the side of the road and poured it into the ditch. He looked up at Baiyun Creek, walked over silently, and poured two bowls of water.
“What does Xiao Wu think of land reclamation?”
“Xiao Wu, stop doing this, come over and rest for a while.”
Baiyunxi picked up the bowl and drank it in one gulp, then wiped her mouth with a handkerchief. She saw Xiao Wu look at her in surprise and then turned his head away.
When Baiyunxi was happy, he didn't care about the pain at the base of his tail. He took a sickle and pulled out the beets, cutting off the leaves and stems, leaving only a beet head.
Other than being surprised, I didn’t have much thought in my mind.
Looking at a piece of beet in the mountain col, Bai Yunxi couldn't hide the joy in her eyes. The sky is the limit, and she finally saw some hope.
But her family is having a hard time, and until she has enough food and clothing, don't talk to her about love and kindness.
“Bai Anyan, come here to pick me up, I can’t walk anymore.” This body has not been exercised, and it has reached its limit after walking here.
Baiyunxi took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He sat down with his head lowered to catch his breath and gave direct orders:
"You and Mrs. Li should stop clearing land for the time being. Send this home, grab two baskets from there, prepare two sacks, and come over with the poles."
Oh my god, she found wild beets here.
"All right."
Bai Yunxi was very curious about this child. At the age of thirteen, it was not good for him to be so silent.
"My mother made the right decision. My son has no objection. It is urgent to solve the problem of food rations." Xiao Wu turned his head and looked at Baiyun Xi with a calm tone.
