Chapter 8: Potato Identification Expert

  Chapter 8 Potato Identification Expert

   Thinking of this, my stomach growled again.

   Only then did Xu Guangling realize through the light in the room that it was already afternoon, which was so strange! Because even if he slept late, because of the light sleep, he would basically get up before eight in the morning, and no later than ten in the morning.

   But at this time, the afternoon is certain, and the exact time is not very clear.

   looked at the phone, four o'clock!

Oh my God!

   I slept most of the day, and I slept for at least 12 hours yesterday, no wonder I feel full of energy all over my body. But in fact, compared to that incredible dream, the sound and long sleep was nothing at all.

   Am I being "possessed" by a chef? The blue light that threw into his forehead last night was actually the soul of a chef or something?

   For a while, Xu Guangling thought of a lot of strange things in his mind, but soon, his stomach that continued to growl reminded him, don't worry about it beforehand, it's more important to fill your stomach first? So I washed it, and then cooked, it was the three potatoes left over from yesterday.

   When he touched the potato again, a strange feeling came to Xu Guangling's heart, familiar? strangeness?

   It always feels like it has been over and over again, just like now, ready to deal with potatoes. But the fact is that over the past few years, Xu Guangling has made potatoes no more than a hundred times! Because for him, washing, peeling and shredding potatoes is really a hassle.

   If a person lives in a daze, basically, there is no point in it, in any respect!

   But at this time, holding a potato in his hand, Xu Guangling felt not familiar, but very familiar. How familiar are you? The next moment, he tossed it casually, and the potato rolled over three times in the air in front of him, no more or less, and then fell back into his hands again.

   This is the first potato, the second potato he threw again and turned over four times, and then the third potato, turned over five times.

   is like an arm and a finger!

  This is not a potato, this is a toy that I don't know how familiar it is.

   At the same time, I didn't take a closer look at all, but information about these three potatoes kept popping up in my mind:

This should be a potato grown on loess soil, and the soil texture is not good, sour and wet. Such potatoes naturally have a watery and earthy smell, and are inferior and unsuitable for purchase. ; These potatoes have been unearthed for more than three months. Although they are not broken, they are completely unfit for consumption...

Is    so exaggerated?

  I ate it last night, wasn't it pretty sweet?

  Xu Guangling put the potato in his hand to the tip of his nose in disbelief and sniffed hard. Then it was strange that he actually smelled the so-called watery, earthy, rigid and stale smell. At this moment, Xu Guangling was a little suspicious. He didn't smell it with his nose, but with a kind of The compound "feel" feels out.

   But no matter what, he couldn't enjoy these three potatoes with peace of mind.

   At this time, it was 4:30 in the afternoon, and the time was about the same. Xu Guangling walked to the vegetable market.

For a person who has traveled a lot, every time he goes to a new place, it becomes instinctive to grasp the basic geography of that place and the distribution of buildings. Therefore, Xu Guangling is very clear about the distribution of the surrounding vegetable markets. Chu.

There are three vegetable markets nearby, one is a little farther, but it is also the largest, and the other two are about the same distance, but one sells more vegetables, the other sells meat and fruits. Xu Guangling usually goes to sell more vegetables. The one with more vegetables, as for the one that is farther away, he only visited it at the very beginning.

   And this time, out of the idea of ​​verifying something, Xu Guangling went straight to the largest vegetable market.

When    arrived, I found that there were a lot of people. To exaggerate, it seemed that people from the whole city came here.

Stations, comprehensive shopping areas, and vegetable markets are basically the three major gathering points of a city, and it is not easy to distinguish between the three major cities. At a glance, you can see that there are all people densely packed.

   In other words, this is the main reason why Xu Guangling only came to this vegetable market once before. As for the distance, it can only be ranked as a secondary reason.

   After three turns and two turns, Xu Guangling came to an aisle in the vegetable market. This area sells sweet potatoes, potatoes, winter melons, etc. Xu Guangling's goal is naturally potatoes.

  When he usually buys potatoes, Xu Guangling usually finds a potato stand, then buys potatoes and leaves. Anyway, in his opinion, there is nothing to pick up about this stuff, it's all the same, and he doesn't bother to ask the price, find a cheaper stall or something, the difference isn't that big, isn't it? Why bother to toss and toss.

   In short, Xu Guangling's speed of grocery shopping is a super speed.

   But today, in this potato-selling area, there are dozens of potato-selling places, Xu Guangling wandered around slowly, and made a general identification first:

   "The potatoes here are not good, they have been sitting for too long."

   "This one doesn't work either, the place of origin is too poor."

"The potatoes in this family look good, firm, plump, and big, but they are actually propped up by excessive fertilizer and have a stench." from the sense of smell.)

   "This one is good, the soil is solid and the taste of potatoes should be good, but unfortunately it is too small and can be listed as an alternative."

  …

Xu Guangling is like an old gluttonous eater, no, like an old cook, just glance at him and make judgments on the potatoes he has spotted, and then which ones should pass, which ones should be hanged up and beaten by the stall owner, and which ones should be considered for inclusion. Alternatives, which textures are good, all are clear.

   Oh no, I haven't found a good quality to be commendable after wandering around. There are only two that are listed as candidates, and all the others are OUT.

   When the results came out, Xu Guangling was stunned. First, he was shocked that he suddenly became a "potato identification expert", and second, why are the potatoes sold at these stalls so pitted? Is there a problem with his identification, or is there really no one with good quality among these dozens of potato stalls?

   Not to mention that several of them can be called black-hearted potatoes.

   Xu Guangling was also drunk. He never knew that potatoes that looked almost identical had so many doors.

However, although shocked and strange, Xu Guangling still obeyed his own judgment, um, maybe not his own judgment, in short, Xu Guangling weighed a pound of potatoes in each of the two alternative stalls .

   And in the process, two things happened, I have to say:

   First, Xu Guangling didn't deliberately choose these two stalls, but when he picked it up, he started with Zhou Zheng's potatoes. Oh, the "almost" here can be removed.

  Second, it's more that, Xu Guangling picked up a few potatoes, and he felt that it was almost the same. He asked the stall owner to weigh it. It might be a coincidence if it was only at one of the stalls, but it happened to be the case at both!

   This is not much of a coincidence.

   Or you can say a little bit arbitrarily at first, this is no coincidence!
