Chapter 35 Carrot Wars

In this way, the two parties finalized the agreement, Chen Jingke provided technology and ideas, and Changsun Wugou provided people for production, transportation and sales. In the end, the two parties shared a [-]% share.

There is no piece of paper, just words in pen and ink, purely verbal agreement.

Chen Jingke was not at all worried that his eldest grandson Wugou would renege on his debts—without him, would he still dare to take the contract to ask the queen for money?

In fact, he completely believed in his grandson Wugou's character and would not take his toll.

As for whether [-]% would be too little, he didn't think so at all, and even thought it was too much.

In the previous life, I found a capitalist to cooperate with an idea. It is hard to say whether I can occupy [-]% of the original shares.What's more, this is the evil old society, and the more money the better.

Needless to say, which is more important, money or the favor of the emperor.

Chen Jingke wrote down the production methods of brown sugar, white sugar and canned fruit on the spot, and designed a simple assembly line based on his own understanding of industrial production.

The eldest grandson Wugou carefully hid these pages next to his body as if he had found a treasure.

Li Chengqian, Li Tai and Li Lizhi all watched eagerly, wondering if I could get involved too.But they all knew the value of this thing, so they didn't dare to really speak.

Not long after, Li Shimin and Sun Simiao also came back, and everyone hurriedly asked about Qin Qiong's situation.

Li Shimin sighed heavily, and said: "He has woken up and was sent back to the mansion. As for his condition, let Sun Zhenren talk about it."

Sun Simiao said: "Weak pulse, qi deficiency, night sweats... are caused by excessive blood loss and loss of vitality."

Changsun Wugou asked: "Is there a remedy for a real person?"

Sun Simiao shook his head and said: "I'm going to disappoint my mother, I may still have a way to recuperate the normal blood loss, Duke Yi's damage is too heavy, it is no longer a medicine stone..."

Having said that, he suddenly stopped, looked at Chen Jingke and said, "Ke'er, can you do something?"

Chen Jingke also shook his head and said, "I know some methods of conditioning, but I don't know how effective it will be."

Li Shimin said helplessly: "Write down your method, the matter has come to this point, we can only do our best and obey the destiny."

Chen Jingke took a pen and wrote down what he knew about the methods and taboos of food tonic for ischemia. In fact, it was just a few words:
Eat more pig blood, pig liver, vegetables, oranges, kiwi fruit, pinpo fruit, etc., and prohibit drinking tea, alcohol, and greasy and spicy food.

Passed the prescription to Sun Simiao and asked him to add it appropriately, Chen Jingke said casually: "When the donkey-hide gelatin is boiled, he can eat it often."

"It would be great if there were carrots. It is rich in nutrients and can nourish the blood. It can also treat night blindness and scurvy... By the way, it can also lower blood pressure when eaten regularly."

High blood pressure has become a nightmare for Li Shimin's family. Hearing that it can lower blood pressure, they immediately pricked up their ears: "What is this carrot? Where can I find it?"

Chen Jingke thought for a while and said: "As the name suggests, carrots look a bit like radishes, and the planting method is similar. The origin seems to be in Afghanistan... Tocharo."

"Tocharian?" Li Shimin frowned and thought, "Is it the Tocharian country controlled by the Western Turks?"

Chen Jingke said: "Yes, that's right there."

Li Shimin said unwillingly: "Then there is no way to use troops for the time being, trouble."

Chen Jingke was a little excited when he heard that, this is Datang, the first thing he thinks about when he wants something is whether he can snatch it.

If troops are really sent out, how will future generations evaluate this battle? 'Carrot war', 'war over a carrot'?
Li Chengqian stood up and said: "Yeah, there are many Hu merchants from the West in Chang'an, among them are Tucharians, and you can buy seeds through their hands."

Li Shimin nodded and said: "Okay, remember not to reveal your real identity when contacting them."

This meant that this matter was left to him. Li Chengqian was overjoyed and said: "The wife and uncle of Meng Xiang, the guest of the East Palace, was born in a merchant. He often contacts Hu merchants. He can contact the people of Tocharo through him."

Li Shimin said: "But, don't be too eager, it's easy to be grasped."

Li Chengqian said: "Here."

After talking about carrots, everyone started chatting, and Changsun Wugou talked about donkey-hide gelatin, canned food and sugar.

Li Shimin didn't care about the first two, but when he heard about the sugar making technique, especially the snow sugar technique, he immediately became interested. Obviously, he knew very well what was really related to the military.

He came here today with the ministers of civil and military affairs. Li Shimin couldn't leave them alone and stayed in the backyard for too long. After chatting for a while, he left with his eldest grandson Wugou and Li Chengqian.

Sun Simiao took Chen Jingke and sent them all the way out of the Taoist temple before returning. When they closed the door and prepared to deal with internal affairs, many people rushed over.

After asking, I found out that some of them came to offer incense, some came to seek medical treatment, and some came to give gifts.

Sun Simiao also treated these people differently, and the one offering incense replied: "There are many things that are not ready for the original creation of this concept, so I can't receive you blessed masters for the time being... Please come back in five days."

For those who seek medical treatment, he said: "Shan Libo, a poor Taoist, cannot take care of everyone. Please go to other places for treatment for those with milder illnesses. If there are patients with difficult and miscellaneous diseases, come back for treatment after seven days."

As for those who treat guests and give gifts, he always refuses: "You will not be rewarded for no merit, please go back."

Then calmly return to the observation center and ask people to close the observation door.

Chen Jingke, who followed behind, looked admiring, our master is omnipotent.That is to say, he is tired of officialdom battles, otherwise there may be another famous person in history.

As if to confirm his guess, Sun Simiao then showed how to arrange personnel.

He summoned all the people to raise Tianlu, Yinu, Yuzhu, plus twelve servants and fifty Taoist boys.

Yi Nu and Yuzhu were the maids personally appointed by Changsun Wugou to Chen Jingke, he did not move, and the rest of them made their appointments.

Yang Tianlu, who came over, was appointed as the governor to assist the temple owner in dealing with matters large and small.

A servant named Qiu Xingsi was the most proficient in Taoist classics, and was appointed as the governor to lecture on scriptures for everyone.

A man named Jiang Zhuo, who was good at cooking, was appointed as the capital chef, responsible for food procurement, cooking and other things.

Others, such as zhike, clerk, inspector (guardian), and Kutou, also have their own appointments. Even each temple has a temple master, who is responsible for the order, sanitation, and maintenance of the temple.

Fifty Taoist boys became their subordinates.

Just a few seemingly simple appointments made the Taoist personnel and personnel, which were originally a mess and had no clue, become clear in authority.

It can be said that everyone has a specific job, and every thing is also responsible for a specific person. This ability opened Chen Jingke's eyes and made him feel ashamed.

It also made him understand that he had too much to learn.

Personnel appointment can become so simple, thanks to Li Shimin.

None of the twelve servants he gave were real ordinary people, all of them could read and write, and all of them had worked as stewards somewhere.

Later, he was reduced to a slave because of various things, and finally Li Shimin instructed someone to buy it and send it to Zixiao Palace.

Sun Simiao did not ignore his disciples, and asked after the personnel appointment was over: "Ke'er, do you have anything to say to them?"
