Bab 315: Chapter 194: Making Full Use of Everything_1

That day, after finishing her lessons, Qian Yixiu led Zi Zhu out of Linhe Garden and saw the bustling scene at West Lake.

A few days prior, Su Sanwu had begun leading several workers to harvest the golden lotus roots from the lake.

The horse carriages from the Song family and Wuxi Store were waiting outside Guiyuan, for once the lotus roots were harvested, they must not be dirtied and were sent directly to Wen County Port and the provincial city.

Once the golden lotus roots were available, they were warmly welcomed, with buyers flocking to them like ducks to water. They could be eaten raw as a fruit, the taste even surpassing that of any other fruit. Cooked, they could be stir-fried or used in soup, offering a flavor even more delicious than many other delicacies. Moreover, they were easy to store and transport. Most importantly, rarity determined their value.
