Chen Xi really didn't know that there were words on the milk candy sold by the Zhen family. Today, when I was passing by, I saw an old man holding candy and asking his grandson what the word was. After the child met, the old man gave the candy to the child, and Chen Xi ran to the store to buy candy.

After going there, Chen Xi discovered that this candy was recently produced by the Zhen family. It has a thousand-character version. One candy has one word on it, divided into one thousand kinds, and a long strip of paper wrapped twelve pieces, sold for one cent. It is a real pure milk and pure natural.

Anyway, according to the shopkeeper, the candy is sold well. There was no professional candy shop in the past. Since the Zhen family released this candy, there has been a store that specializes in selling candy. People often buy this kind of thing by buying candy for their children and literacy.

By the way, this thing is really effective for literacy. Anyone who remembers to eat it should at least realize the word on sugar after eating it a few times. Candy is still very expensive these days. Even if Chen Xi is desperately producing sugar in the southern plantations, he cannot withstand the consumption of the Central Plains.

"How did this candy be made? There is such a clear word in the middle." Liu Bei was surprised to get a candy from Chen Xi's hand, and a clear word in the middle.

"I know how to do it, but I didn't think about this. The Zhen family's brain may be full of business, and it's really not possible to do anything else." Chen Xi threw the candy into his mouth and said with a smile. He could taste the candy contained a lot of condensed milk.

To be honest, this is also a way to preserve fresh milk, but the method is rather strange. The Zhen family probably put a lot of thought into it. This family has many problems, but it is indeed very good to do business.

"I can taste the very rich milky flavor in the sugar." Liu Bei frowned and said.

Liu Bei doesn't like this taste very much, but after hanging out with Chen Xi for a long time, Liu Bei knew very well that the shelf life of any sugar is very outrageous, and at most it becomes ugly. The shelf life of dairy products is really not good. After the combination of the two, it actually has the shelf life of sugar, which is also a very magical technology.

"Well, this is also a way to preserve fresh milk, but the technique is a bit weird. The Zhen family doesn't know what it is studying, but the general idea is fine. Although internal voting has indeed dragged down the Zhen family, it seems that they are still developing as a whole." Chen Xi said with a three-point smile, "Business development also requires technology."

In fact, from this sugar, Chen Xi knew that the Zhen family had at least a condensed milk processing factory, a syrup factory, and a sugar manufacturing factory. Because it was possible to make this level of handmade sugar, most of the sugars were not difficult for the Zhen family.

Because this type of sugar with words is obviously hand-cured, made into long strips in semi-cooled state, then rolled into cylinders and cut out. This process can ensure that the sugar and condensed milk are maintained at a standard temperature, neither too hot to start, nor too cold to turn into solid. This is a technique in itself. In addition to various messy flavors, the Zhen family has made various jams.

This means that behind the Zhen family’s creation of such a thing, there are pastures, farms, plantations, fleets, dairy processing, syrup processing, seasonal fruit processing, jam processing, etc.

Just thinking of this, Chen Xi felt that the Zhen family was really excellent. They were just a waste when they wanted to develop their careers. They were allowed to do production and learn to extend upstream and downstream without a teacher. It should be said that only the Zhen family of the five major merchants are really working diligently to develop, and others have other ideas.

For Mi Zhu, the Mi family’s business is just about promoting capital. He actually does not have much idea of ​​doing business. Being an official and strengthening a big family is the essence.

Not to mention Chen Liuwei and Hedongwei, for these two, business is just a cover, and our family is the most important thing.

Needless to say, the Wu family is just an auxiliary business, and they rely on cross-border trade to install their staff at home and abroad, waiting for the opportunity.

In the end, it seemed that the only Zhen family was doing this as a career, and they were very good at doing it, which was even a bit scary.

"Wait, tell me again, how many supporting facilities are needed for such a candy?" Liu Bei almost swallowed the whole candy whole. Are you scaring me.

"The pasture needs to provide enough fresh milk, plantations need to provide sucrose, farms need to provide maltose and seasonal fruits, and large-scale processing of fresh milk and syrup production bases. Fructose seasoning requires some spices and fruits rich in sour flavor, which can only be provided from the south, plus jam..." Chen Xi retelled it casually.

Liu Bei started to calculate money. Liu Bei actually didn't like to calculate money, but he felt that he really needed to calculate whether the Zhen family was unable to expand, but he only knew how to make money.

"Don't forget it. It takes at least 20,000 people to operate these factories and fleets, as well as the manufactured handmade candy. If the Zhen family wants to save trouble, they are even candy papers themselves..." Chen Xi said as he stopped, shook the candy paper, opened the packaging and stretched it a little, found the translucent glutinous rice paper inside, and fell into deep thought.

"At least two or three factories have been mentioned. The candy paper was also made by the Zhen family, and it was made with sugar cane bagasse with dried candy water. The inside should be edible glutinous rice paper made by the Zhen family's wheat harvest and some kind of grass from the south." Chen Xi shook. These things can be made on a large scale by hand, and the only difficulty lies in how to develop the technology.

"In other words, the Zhen family is still very rich?" Liu Bei said with a complicated mentality.

"I'm not very rich, I'm very rich. Just operating these things, according to my previous understanding of the Zhen family, these things may not be jointly operated with others, but operated by myself." Chen Xi said calmly, not talking about the value of these things. The organizational ability of operating these things is terrifying enough.

The Zhen family does not like to share certain resources with other families. The last time they accepted shared resources was the Grand Canal. If the Zhen family hadn't really been able to take it, the Zhen family would not have accepted shared resources.

Generally, the Zhen family will try their best to control things that they can control themselves. If they can't, they will build one by themselves. Anyway, they don't lack money or something, although they are not very smart in other aspects.

Liu Bei sighed when he heard this. Liu Bei was called a very rich man by Chen Xi. Liu Bei no longer knew how to describe him. He should be said to be worthy of being the Zhen family.

"It's just such a small thing, enough for the Zhen family to squeeze out the candies from other families from the market. They buy candies, all taste all the time, and the prices are the same. The Zhen family's candies have a literacy function. If you buy them, they are used as psychological comfort. Maybe my child will learn too..." Chen Xi said with a smile, "It's very interesting."

Liu Bei had nothing to say, but he couldn't accept it. He should say that Chen Xi and the Zhen family who were doing this were both professionals, and ordinary people really couldn't play with it.

"Since that's the case, I won't go to the Zhen family and let them continue to vote democratically." Liu Bei thought about it. He was going to see what the Zhen family looked like recently. Now Chen Xi can tell the whole story, and Liu Bei is no longer interested. The Zhen family has done some work, but his life is still very good, so there is no need to supervise it.

"This family may not be smart about the normal route, but it's good to do business. The Midiya Trading City is just the Midiya Trading City." Chen Xi also sighed with a three-point sigh.

The Zhen family has a guaranteed guarantee. No matter what it is, there is at least a Midiya trading city. Although there is a communist area there, it is a trading city. Rome squats a Midiya Governor there, so the Han Dynasty needs to arrange a family there.

Needless to say, even if both sides turn against each other, Rome will not attack the Midiya Trading City, which is a center of international trade. Martial law may occur when fighting, but it will not block it unless the two sides make a fuss to the point where one must die.

The problem is that both sides are too far away for Rome or the Han Dynasty, so far that they can be shot, but it is impossible to do anything.

"Have you made up your mind?" Liu Bei looked at Chen Xi and asked. It's been a few years, and I thought you were going to wait until the Zhen family's democratic vote was completed before taking action.

"The vote can continue to be held in Midiya, without affecting it. According to the current situation, the Zhen family can vote for this generation of heads and fall down, and then replace the next generation of heads to continue to vote." Chen Xi sighed and said, "Their current democratic vote is already a demonstration of their attitude, and we will continue to allow the Zhen family to expand the scope of voting..."

Chen Xi touched his chin, thinking about whether the Zhen family was a brain or deliberately expanded the scope of democratic voting. As of now, the Zhen family has attracted many people to enter this voting range, from the beginning of the family, the clan elders, to the branches, to the family, to the family, to the family, to the shopkeepers, and so on.

Although the voting authority for new levels is gradually being reduced, are there many people being recruited? And why does this look more and more like the parliamentary system?

"Which ancestor of the Zhen family is?" Chen Xi asked with some confusion.

"Attaining prosperity during the pre-Han period, he was the descendant of Taibao Zi Xingong." Liu Bei explained casually, "The ancestors said to Emperor Shun."

"I feel that what the Zhen family is doing now is something that some people do during the Spring and Autumn Period. "The Secretariat of the Earth Situ: "The great cause of the state is to bring all the people to the royal family." Chen Xi said with some confusion, touching his chin.

Liu Bei was slightly stunned when he heard this. After a while, both sides looked at each other and then thought that they didn't know that they could calculate the Zhen family's ability, but not the Zhen family's unlucky. The parliamentary system is not so easy, and the Zhen family is quite dangerous.
