"I have been calculating the expenditure of the Shaofu recently. This seems to be quite a lot. I may have to hold a small meeting to discuss with Your Highness whether to allocate funds from the treasury. However, if the treasury is allocated, the price will be reviewed, which should be cheaper." Chen Xi just glanced at Si Niang, and knew what Si Niang was thinking. Based on the idea of ​​giving Si Niang strength to Si Niang, Chen Xi smiled.

Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi at this. He didn't understand these things, but he was very familiar with Chen Xi. Just listening to these words, you knew that Chen Xi was having nothing to do and was playing with Concubine Xian again.

"Give it, I'll give you all these." Si Niang directly opened the drawers of other food boxes and ate them all, looking like she was blocking Chen Xi's mouth. How could she say that at some point, Si Niang was still very smart.

"Okay, stop teasing the concubines." Liu Bei said to Chen Xi angrily. It is said that the court officials should stay away from the concubines, but these days, this aspect is not very rigorous. In addition, Liu Tong's harem is just like Si Niang, and a lot of restraints are no longer restrained for Si Niang.

"Just just kidding. I said back then that the Shaofu will be kept. As for whether it is expensive or not, this is not a problem." Chen Xi said to Si Niang with a smile, "and try not to go out to buy it. If you have any needs, please contact the Shaofu Chief, and he will solve it."

"Shaofucheng believes that humans cannot eat thirty meals of mutton for ten consecutive days. I think I can." Si Niang said very seriously.

This sentence directly silenced Chen Xi. After a long time, Chen Xi shook his head and said, "I think what the Shaofu Cheng said is correct. Humans really can't do this."

Liu Bei no longer wanted to answer the conversation at this time. This situation would not happen to normal humans no matter what. No wonder Si Niang went out of the palace to buy it himself. The Shaofu was also afraid that there would be problems with eating the concubines. Si Niang was not an immortal at all. After Chen Xi realized this, he asked Hua Tuo and Ji Xiang to diagnose it specifically, and finally confirmed that Si Niang's body functions were operating. In other words, he was a living person.

As for why Si Niang, who is a living person, has so many paradoxical skills, how to say it, this may be Si Niang’s own problem, but no matter what, Si Niang is a living person, so the palace kitchen also needs to be given regular quantities.

Like the two Marquis of Huaiyin and Wu'anjun, because they are orthodox immortals, they can do anything like eating bad health, so they can be punished by them at will. But if Si Niang is a living person or a concubine, then she should use the concubine's set to manage it. If you eat mutton every day, you will get prickly heat. Could it be that you will be punished by the chef?

That's not funny, so after confirming Si Niang's condition, Si Niang's food items moved closer to Liu Tong. Although it was relaxed, no matter how relaxed it, it was impossible for Si Niang to eat mutton for ten days. After all, she was also a concubine of the Han Dynasty and was not a member of the Huns.

Even the Huns' sages shouldn't eat mutton for ten consecutive days. This is the wrong link, is it the cause?

"Forget it, this is not the problem of the Shaofu Chief." Chen Xi said after a moment of silence, "Even if you like some kind of food, you can't eat it like this. Because there is a problem, the Shaofu and the kitchen are both overwhelmed."

Even if Chen Xi takes responsibility and Si Niang has problems with eating, the people in charge of Shaofu and the kitchen will be very immense, and they may even be attacked by the outside king.

"Si Niang!" At this moment, Liu Tong appeared behind the shadow wall with a team of guards and palace maids, and then greeted Si Niang.

Before, Si Niang ran away after causing trouble, Liu Tong knew where Si Niang had gone, but Si Niang brought back food for herself, so Liu Tong ignored it. As a result, Si Niang ran out for half an hour and had not come back, Liu Tong thought Si Niang had lost again.

It sounds outrageous, but this has really happened several times in Shanglinyuan. He was beaten by Lu, taken away by the adult Jin Jianlai sent by Stina, pecked by the elephant bird sent by Wu family, etc. In short, Si Niang's embarrassment happened more than once, so when Si Niang teleported away and had not teleported back for half an hour, Liu Tong came to find the palace maid.

There is no way. The only concubine of the Han Empire did not rely on leaving, but on teleportation, so there were usually no palace maids or guards around.

"I have seen Your Highness the Princess." Chen Xi and Liu Bei both bowed to show their salute, and Liu Tong also replied.

"Si Niang, I also asked if you were lost somewhere again?" Liu Tong walked over and pulled Si Niang's bun and said with a smile.

"I'm just learning new knowledge from Chen Hou." Si Niang quickly explained after being grabbed by Liu Tong, "I learned something new today."

"What?" Liu Tong asked curiously.

Si Niang quickly spoke up to Liu Tong what she learned today, and Liu Tong frowned. After hearing this, she looked at Chen Xi, blinked, and said, "Chen Zichuan, is it interesting to lie to fool a fool?"

Chen Xi laughed dryly. Some things he could miss most people, but it was difficult to miss Liu Bei and Liu Tong. Liu Bei had worked with Chen Xi for many years, and Liu Tong simply didn't believe Chen Xi's tricks. A sheep was eight thousand words? Liu Tong still believed it when others said this, talking about flavor, taste, etc., but Chen Xi was talking about this, that was completely tricky.

For such words, Liu Tong usually cuts the price of a foot, and cuts it directly into 8000 essays. Liu Tong even sometimes doubts whether this thing is worth 800 essays, but there is no evidence and cannot be said too directly, but this does not prevent Liu Tong from expressing his own doubts about Chen Xi in this regard.

Chen Xi laughed dryly when he saw this. Although Liu Tong did not have some understanding, he had a strong intuition and could call Chen Xi's thinking logic. In addition, Chen Xi's Shaofu Special Offer, many people actually doubted the gameplay of Royal Family Selection, but there is indeed a huge gap in flavor and taste compared to other mutton, so that people who eat it think that this thing must be a premium, but not too exaggerated.

There is no way, I spent 8,000 pm to buy this kind of thing, so of course I have to find a top chef to deal with it. Even a domestic chef will use all his skills to deal with it when he gets this kind of ingredients known as the top ingredients.

The quality of things itself has an advantage of about 10%. It is better to process them when dealing with them. The cooking skills are higher and more willing to work hard. The final taste of the things that are made is much better than what you have eaten before, which is normal.

If you include the Shaofu Special Gong and the royal family's style, and if you change to the environment of "high-end ingredients", there are indeed many people who are willing to accept this price. After all, this thing is not eaten every day, and it is occasionally extravagant, and most people are willing to accept it. After all, to this level, it is indeed much better than most places and is much better than most people.

This is also the key to not only playing this game, but also continuing to play. Because after a while, the things that come out are indeed delicious. Although the advantages brought by the ingredients are only 10%, the others are all in the later stages. If you really want to work hard, ordinary ingredients can also achieve more than 90% of the flavor at this level, but a few people will put this effort into ordinary ingredients.

There is a saying that restaurants that make home-cooked dishes are real skills. The top dishes that are piled up by piles of ingredients are just the same, because the former is real kung fu, while the latter is something that can be practiced after practicing.

After all, the quality of the ingredients still affects the final output very much. Most high-end ingredients can be cooked a little and retained the original flavor, and they can get a very good review. For ordinary ingredients, if they want to be on the same level as high-end ingredients, the requirements for chefs will be extremely high.

"Overall, the ingredients produced by Shaofu are indeed of better quality than others." Liu Bei said fairly. There is nothing wrong with this matter, the quality is indeed good, but if the quality is worth ten times the price, it would be too much.

"Right, do you just say it's delicious?" Chen Xi said with a smile.

Liu Tong glanced at Chen Xi after hearing this, and didn't say anything. He pulled Si Niang and signaled to follow him back. Liu Tong had almost realized over the years that in terms of economy, these people were still quite far away from Chen Xi, so there was no need to bother about this.

Before leaving, Si Niang took away a few melons of cookies, which is why Cookies think that there are many pests in Shanglinyuan and cannot be cleaned up.

Just these pests today, what medicine should you take?

"Zichuan is indeed shocking in terms of economy." Liu Bei said with a little emotion. He didn't understand this, but the people's lives were good or bad. The top-level people were really willing to pay attention to such things. In fact, it was clear that the situation in the Han Dynasty was better and better every year.

"It's nothing. It's just leaving the land output and liberating some of the people from the heavy agricultural production and joining the handicraft industry that can provide higher output. In fact, most of the things that are now are just barely leaving the handicraft workshop." Chen Xi said with a little emotion, but the terrifying place is here. It's just barely leaving the handicraft workshop, and the profits it creates have crushed the agricultural output.

Even if Chen Xi had not repurchased grain as much as possible, manufactured other products, and maintained the price of grain, ordinary people, that is, farmers who accounted for more than 90% of this era, would have probably been forced to leave their hometowns and enter the handicraft workshop because of the low grain prices.

This is actually the dilemma that Chen Xi mentioned before. If you do not buy back grain, maintain grain prices and let grain continue to fall to the four-in-one of the four-in-one of the rice, the interests of farming will be unable to be guaranteed, and it will inevitably force the agricultural population to develop into handicrafts, and then accelerate the development of the Han Dynasty's industrial system, create more profits, and then further squeeze the living space of the agricultural population.

In the end, it occupied the largest number of agricultural population and suffered the greatest loss. It could be full of food, but nothing else was thought of. It was indeed a prosperous era, but compared with handicrafts, it had no future and could only stick to that little land and produce it with meager land.

Theoretically, by following this path, Chen Xi could gather in a short time to bring wealth that the Han Dynasty had not gathered for 400 years, and even in just over a decade of development, the Han Dynasty could directly transcend the accumulation of the feudal era for thousands of years. However, if this pattern is formed, the road ahead will be dead. Even the sleepers under the rolling wheels of the industrial industry can be said to have been prepared in advance.

As for repurchase, which is what Chen Xi does now, repurchase land output and continuously replenish agriculture with the basic industrial system. The final result is that local people can live well by farming, and there will be no large number of people to supplement and strengthen the industrial system.

Although in this case, those with aspirations and knowledgeable people will continue to invest in this basic industrial system and allow this thing to continue to develop, it is basically impossible to rapidly surpass the accumulation of feudalism like the former.

The so-called industrial revolution, which surpassed the two thousand years of feudalism, is that the blood color dyed before the outbreak is not much less than that of feudalism in two thousand years. Some things and some futures can be achieved only by sacrifice.

Chen Xi’s current situation really depends on the Han Dynasty as the first-mover empire, with enough resources and territory, and its own constraints. Otherwise, the industrial cannibalism would have happened long ago.

To put it too much, does the Han family not see that the price of wool is higher than that of mutton? I wonder if the easiest solution at this time is to destroy the people in the north, and then let the ranch accept these exiled people for transformation, and then promote wool spinning on a large scale?

Not to mention anything else, one batch after another, one county after another has been promoted, and over the years, millions of exiled people have been squeezed out from the north, and it is definitely not a problem to not cause unrest, but why hasn’t happened? Is it the Han family kind? Is it the Han family unexpected? It’s not, I dare not!

When the wool spinning first came out, the northern family who realized the potential of this thing was shoveled by Li You before he even arrived in Yuanfeng's year.

Chen Xi drew the line and told all the families clearly that when I was moving in a certain direction, you could exert force in other directions, but you could not go against my direction. I said to go east, you go northeast, southeast, or even directly south, north, but go west, you will die!

Chen Xi still controls the entire industrial system and economic framework today because he is currently given to Zhuge Liang. Zhuge Liang may not be able to withstand the impact of major families, so he can only give it to Zhuge Liang little by little, so he can let him verify, understand, and understand.

Because this thing is not as kind as Confucian as the Three Kings Age, nor is it as clear as the law says, nor is it a magic weapon to bring peace and prosperity to the world. In essence, this thing comes to the world more to allow some people to eat people in a more efficient way!

In other words, this thing has a big problem at the root, and it is just a regular use. Chen Xi’s cautious operation is just to avoid backlash one day.

"Let's go, take you to a place." After leaving Weiyang Palace, Liu Bei grabbed Chen Xi and prepared to take Chen Xi to a place outside the city.

"Where is going to go, why not go to General Guan. I remember that General Guan has been recuperating in Chang'an these days and barbecue meat every day?" Chen Xi said casually. Having said that, Chen Xi still followed the direction of Liu Bei's force to the opposite direction from Guan Yu's house.

"Yunchang holds a barbecue banquet at night, and is still preparing for it now, and he can't eat it even if he goes there." Liu Bei said casually, "Go to a place with me first and come back to have barbecue in the evening."

"Is that true?" Chen Xi was quite surprised when he heard this. He had not received the invitation letter yet, how did Liu Bei know.

"Captain Yun has sent someone to notify each company. Besides, do you still need an invitation letter?" Liu Bei said angrily. Just this distance, this relationship, I want a Mao invitation letter. Is it okay to ask for trouble? Guan Yu comes to inform you, and you have nothing to do, just take the baby over there.

"Is there anything magical here?" After Liu Bei got on a long car with five pairs of wheels, he rushed to Lantian County at a super high speed. At this speed, Chen Xi estimated that it would take only more than an hour to arrive in Lantian County.

As for why it is a long carriage with five pairs of wheels, because with the establishment of the standard road, the long carriage four-wheeled carriage has too obvious advantages in terms of load and comfort, and it quickly beat the former two-wheeled carriage. Then, as the horses are stimulated by the essence of heaven and earth, they develop more obviously, with more wheels, larger carriages, and heavier loads appearing.

For example, the one Liu Bei currently uses is almost as close to the rear of the later van trucks. Naturally, the comfort and safety of this thing are extremely effective and safe. To put it too much, if Qin Shihuang was riding this thing, Zhang Liang's big hammer would not have anything to do even if he hit it. The lining of this thing is the same as the thing used by the shield guards.

Although Liu Bei felt that it was unnecessary, Li You still persuaded Liu Bei to commit suicide by taking the initiative with his son of a daughter. If he was really unlucky to meet a spy lurking in the Han Dynasty in the Kushan Empire, and then came over without any plans, something really happened.

Liu Bei thought about it and it was the same. He was somewhat of a habit of a ranger. Although Xu Chu was his guard, he sometimes ran away on his own when he was angry and did not take Xu Chu at all. Considering that Zhou Yu's unlucky child was killed on the spot because of the unplanned assassination of the Kushan veteran, Liu Bei's travel during this period can be regarded as remembering that he had such something else.

"Take you to Lantian and let you see it." Liu Bei said happily.

"Is there anything strange about Lantian?" Chen Xi asked curiously. Liu Bei smiled and did not answer directly. He just asked the coachman to speed up and headed to Lantian at lightning speed.

He rushed to Lantian County, and before he even entered the city, Chen Xi saw Yuan Sui, the new elder of the Yuan family, surrounded Kong Rong with the second elder Yuan Tao, who was in his seventies, and a group of old guys from the Yuan family. Chen Xi was stunned and turned his head to look at Liu Bei, and Liu Bei was also stunned.

"Duke Xuande, aren't you so bored? You ran for almost an hour just to see the old Yuan family and the old Yang family surrounding the chief of Kong Changshi?" Chen Xi said helplessly to Liu Bei. Although this is interesting, it has been a bit too late to see this.

"Uh, I'm not so bored yet. I originally wanted to take you to see the new popular education methods in Lantian County. To a certain extent, it has indeed achieved the level of what you thought about back then. As a result, I encountered this before I took you there." Liu Bei said somewhat embarrassedly. He was not such a boring person. How could he run hundreds of miles to watch the clan elders of the big family fight? People like him can run at most several miles for such things, so they will not run hundreds of miles.

"Kong Wenju, hand over the people you took away, otherwise don't blame our Yuan for being too ruthless!" Yang Chang pulled Kong Rong's sleeve and shouted loudly. At this point, the Yuan family will take the blame. Besides, there are many Yuan family present. As long as you are careful, the Yang family will most likely not expose their behavior of beating Kong Rong, the president of the university.

"The people have been sent overseas long ago!" Even if Kong Rong was caught by Yuan Yang, he was very tough. If he had not participated in the grand dynasty meeting at the end of the year, Kong Rong would have gone to New Zealand to make the fantasy pastoral songs. Now he wants people? Are you looking for people? Are you trying to die? I'm here, see if you can kill me!

"Overseas? There is no need to enter the sea in Southeast Asia! You can't give me a lot of overseas!" Yuan Sui said angrily. Their Yuan family had stared at the technicians of the animal husbandry industry early in the morning. In the end, in a blink of an eye, all the people were gone, and the principal was gone. Damn, my Yuan family was full of hands and eyes, and can still let you go out of the sea!

"Jiangdong is right? You have a hard relationship, right? We have no hard relationship!" Kong Rong said very toughly, but this is not empty talk. The Yuan family is indeed very strong in Jiangdong. After all, Sun Ce is half of Yuan Shu's son, and the relationship is terrible, but so what? My Kong family has nothing to do. I can't find Sun Ce, and the Jiangdong family. Things that a confidential lower-level bureaucrat can do are no smaller than those that you are capable of.

"This world is still the world of Confucianism!" Kong Rong said dissatisfiedly.

"Stop talking nonsense, take it back. Where is our newly elected head of the Kong family?" Yang Chang called Yuan Sui, "Principal, don't be ruthless, right? It doesn't matter, we have the head of the Kong family!"

Chen Xi leaned over and looked at the group of people, cursed and watched a good show. However, the Yang family's underworld was indeed a bit outrageous. Even the new head of the Kong family had been found. This was indeed a beast. However, thinking about it, there were indeed many people who were not convinced by Kong Rong. The faction divided by Confucianism was reflected in the Kong family itself. To overturn Kong Rong and elect a new head of the Kong family seemed to be a solution.

"Don't care?" Liu Bei asked, looking at Chen Xi who had returned.

"What do I care about?" Chen Xi replied casually.

Seeing Hulala's group of arrogant guys walking on the cart, he was so attentive that he didn't notice himself. Among them, Kong Rong, the veteran Yuan Yang clan, stood firmly in the middle, staring at him without squinting, and couldn't help but tease, "It's enough for a large family to fight in a melee, just don't disturb the people."
Chapter completed!
