Chapter 1003: Chili (10)
"Red fruit?" Yang Ruxin blinked, but quickly came to terms with it. In the past, this thing existed merely as an ornamental plant, with its bright red fruits, so calling it ’red fruit’ did fit the bill.
Gu Qingheng nodded, "As soon as you mentioned it, I thought of this."
"Was it you who reminded him?"
"Yes." Gu Qingheng nodded, "Actually, I had a pot of it before, always kept in my study. The red brightened up the room, and it seemed to not attract mosquitoes..."
"Gu Qingheng." Yang Ruxin grabbed Gu Qingheng’s arm, "Listen to me, now with this, it’s like having a money tree. As long as we can cultivate it, it will be able to replace Cornus officinalis. No, not replace, but surpass it. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it could even start a new era of cuisine..." In modern times, Sichuan cuisine was absolutely popular all over the country, and there was a saying that when two people on a date didn’t know what to eat, Sichuan cuisine would never be turned down.
Seeing Yang Ruxin’s eagerness, Gu Qingheng couldn’t help but chuckle, "I believe you, but how do we cultivate it?" He was not deeply familiar with farming.
Yang Ruxin shook her head, "I don’t know how, but there must be someone who does. We’ll just have to consult more with those old farming experts; there’s bound to be someone who can figure it out... I’ll take this to my room first, it’s too precious..."
Sitting in her room, looking at the chili peppers, Yang Ruxin suddenly thought of her personal space, so she plucked two chili peppers and went into her space.
