In history, sweet potato was bought by Chen Zhenlong.
According to records, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, Chen Zhenlong, a Fujian man who had been doing business in Luzon for a long time, and his son Chen Jinglun saw that there was a root crop called sweet potato. The root tuber was as big as fist, red in skin, crisp and juicy in heart, edible both raw and cooked, high yield, and wide planting and barren tolerance. "Thinking of Fujian's abundant mountains and few fields, poor land and lack of food, he decided to introduce sweet potato into China.
At that time, Luzon was under the Spanish colonial rule, so he was forbidden to leave the country.
After careful planning, Chen Zhenlong took potato vines and twisted them into the water line, and smeared mud on the surface of the rope. Only in this way did he evade the inspection of the colonists and brought it back to Fujian.
