Li Xiu and Ma Ye were about to go to the greenhouse to get canned food, but as soon as they went out, they saw a horse galloping on the road in front of them, and then saw the bearded knight on the horse shouting at them: "Brother Ma, I didn't expect you to be here, that's a coincidence, lest I find Li Xianjiu to help me pass the word!" ”

"Why are you here?" Ma Ye couldn't help frowning when he saw the person coming, he really said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and the person who came was Cheng Yanjin whom he just mentioned. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

I saw Cheng biting Jin Zongma coming to Li Xiu and them, and then flew off the horse, and smiled at Ma Ye and said: "Isn't this to find Brother Ma, but Brother Ma, you Shenlong can't see the head and the tail, I went to the princess's courtyard several times to find you, and I didn't dare to disturb the princess, so I came to Li Xianjiu in desperation, hoping to let him help me pass a word, but I didn't expect to meet you just now." ”

When he said this, he saw Cheng Yanjin grinning at Li Xiu a little embarrassed, which was regarded as a greeting, and then said to Ma Ye: "How about it, how did you think about the business we talked about last time, as long as you agree, there is absolutely no problem on my side!" ”

Hearing that Cheng Yanjin was urging himself to make a decision, this made Ma Ye seem more calm, this is the case in the business field, the more anxious one party is, the more important this business is to him, which will invisibly expose his bottom line, and will only let the other party seize the opportunity to kill you.

"Lao Cheng, since you have asked so, then I will tell you the truth, whether your business can be successful or not depends on whether Li Xiu next to me can help you!" At this time, Ma Ye pointed at Li Xiudao.

"Oh? I wonder what Li Saijiu can help me? Cheng Yanjin asked a little puzzled when he heard this, he did ask Li Xiu to help him pass the word before, but it was just a message, and he didn't ask Li Xiu for help?

"Hehe, General Cheng doesn't know, you want to cooperate with Uncle Ma to mine coal, but there are sparsely populated in the north, and there is no particularly big city nearby, even if the coal is mined, it is not easy to find a market, so this business is not very easy to do, but I found another good business, that is, the abundant beef and mutton on the grassland......"

Li Xiu said that he told Cheng Yanjin about the canned food, and now the canned food has succeeded most of it, so it's time to tell Cheng Yanjin about it, the northern grassland is extremely chaotic, and without the intervention of the army, it is impossible to do business with the grassland people, so the canned food business must have a powerful general like Cheng Yanjin to join in.

"I see, what are you waiting for, as long as there is canned food, the beef and mutton on the grassland can also be shipped out, if this business is done well, then we will make a fortune!" Cheng Yanjin was shocked at first after hearing the effect of the can, and then slapped his thigh excitedly, and looked at Li Xiu's eyes full of admiration, no wonder His Royal Highness King Qin valued him so much, it turned out that people really have skills that ordinary people can't reach.

"Hehe, General Cheng, don't be too anxious, in this winter, the grassland is estimated to have been blocked by heavy snow, we can't go even if we want to do business, and although the canned food has been made, the effect of preserving food still needs to be verified, just now we have tasted some canned food kept at home, and found that it has not deteriorated, and now we are planning to taste the canned food stored in other places." Li Xiu explained with a smile at this time.

"It's still Li Saijiu who thinks thoughtfully, and it just so happens that I'm also very curious about that can, let's go taste that can!" Cheng Yanjin immediately opened his mouth at this time, he didn't know what politeness was, and he took the initiative to take a look at the can.

Li Xiu also nodded in agreement when he heard this, so Cheng Yanjin didn't even enter his house, and followed them directly to a greenhouse next to the princess's courtyard. ”

"Hehe, this is called a greenhouse, and it was also thought up by Li Xiu, in addition to the royal Wen Tang Jian who can produce some vegetables in winter, only we can produce vegetables here, and our vegetable production is more than that of Wen Tang Jian!" Ma Ye said proudly at this time, although many people now know that greenhouses can grow vegetables, but no one has yet explored the experience of growing vegetables in greenhouses, so this business is still controlled by the princess's mansion for the time being.

"Li Xianjiu is really powerful, I would never come up with such an ingenious way to kill like me!" Cheng Yanjin also sincerely admired at this time, being able to grow vegetables in winter is almost a miracle, coupled with Li Xiu's talent, such a person is naturally admirable.

Li Xiu only smiled indifferently at Cheng Bitingjin's praise, and then came to a corner of this greenhouse, where there was a somewhat abrupt shelf, which was full of all kinds of canned food, and he still chose three different cans, and then walked in front of Ma Ye and Cheng Biting Jin.

"This is canned? How about I give it a taste? Cheng Yanjin had long been curious about the can, and immediately reached out and took a can from Li Xiu's hand, and didn't use any utensils, the fan-like palm directly grabbed the cork, opened the stopper with a slight twist, and then looked at the contents and found that it seemed to be pork, but he didn't care, and directly poured the can bottom up into his mouth.

"Huh?" As soon as the braised pork in the canned food was in his mouth, Cheng Yanjin immediately frowned, then chewed it a few times, and his face showed a puzzled expression, and he seemed to want to ask Li Xiu, but his mouth was stuffed with braised pork, and he couldn't ask at all, but he swallowed the things in his mouth as soon as he raised his head and said, "Li Xianjiu, this pork is very delicious, but in addition to that, there is a bit of a strange smell, is the canned food all this taste?" ”

Li Xiu was also stunned when he heard Cheng Biting Jin's words, and then hurriedly snatched the jar in his hand and looked at it, then put it under his nose and sniffed it, and found that although the remaining soup inside looked normal, it had a faint smell, and it was estimated that it had begun to deteriorate, which made him stare at Cheng Biting Jin with wide eyes: "General Cheng, can you spit out the braised pork just now, this bottle of canned food may have begun to spoil!" ”

"Has it gone bad?" I saw Cheng Biting Jin smashing his mouth, as if he was reminiscing about the taste just now, and then he said indifferently, "It's not spoiled, at most it can only be regarded as a little weird, this is nothing in the army at all!" ”

When Li Xiu heard this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless about Cheng Yanjin's sense of taste, and then thought of Ma Ye's performance before, which made him a little afraid to imagine what messy things they had eaten in the army, and they actually exercised their sense of taste so strongly?

The canned food deteriorated, which made Li Xiu's heart sink, and then he took the open can stopper in his hand and observed it carefully, and found no obvious damage, and then he opened the other two bottles of cans, and found that the mutton was fine, and there was no obvious peculiar smell, but the boiled vegetables were already sour and could not be eaten at all.

"Two of the three bottles are broken, it seems that this can still can't be stored in a hot and humid place for too long!" Li Xiu said with some emotion at this time, but he was not disappointed, the environment in the greenhouse was originally more extreme, and it was normal for cans to break here, and he found that the reason why cans were broken was very related to humidity, for example, the temperature in his bedroom was about the same as in the greenhouse, but the cans inside were well preserved, and the biggest difference was that his bedroom was relatively dry.

In addition, Li Xiu also found that the cork stoppers of the two broken cans contained a lot of water, and it seemed that the water vapor in the greenhouse soaked the cork, which allowed the bacteria from the outside world to enter the cans, but from the perspective of the degree of deterioration of the cans, it is estimated that the time for deterioration is not too long, and it is not impossible to prevent deterioration, such as making some waterproof treatment of the cork, which is not very difficult, such as soaking it in oil in advance, or sealing a layer of wax outside, etc., can achieve the purpose of waterproofing.

Ma Ye was a little worried when he saw that two of the three cans were broken, but after listening to Li Xiu's analysis and countermeasures, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, he didn't understand this, but since Li Xiu had a way, he would definitely not lie to himself, so he even began to discuss with Cheng Yanjin the details of going to the grassland to do business.

Cheng Biting Jin came to a rare trip, so Li Xiu invited him to his home, set up a banquet for the three of them to eat and chat, but in the process of biting King Kong to drink the first sip of wine, he shouted with some dissatisfaction: "Li sacrifice wine, don't be too stingy, don't hide the good wine I drank with King Qin last time, I've been thinking about it for a long time!" ”

"General Cheng, you should die, the last time you and King Qin drank was the last jar, and you won't want to drink it in the future, unless Uncle Ma pretends to be a public servant and lends me the still in the alcohol workshop!" Hearing that Cheng Yanjin still wanted to drink his own distilled liquor, Li Xiu immediately shook his head and said, there is only the last jar left in his house, and he will not take it out easily this time.

"Don't think about the still, the army everywhere is reaching out to me for alcohol, now the workshop is in three shifts, the still is distilling for twelve hours, and the pot of boiling water has to be changed after a while, and it is all burned through!" Ma Ye spread his hands at this time and said, the things in the alcohol workshop are not something he can move if he wants to.

Cheng Yanjin understood Ma Ye's character, and knew that there was no drama when he heard it, so he couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and then drank all the light wine in the bowl, but it turned out to be a chirp, feeling that what he had just drunk was not wine at all, but white water with a smell of wine, fortunately, Li Xiu's food here is not bad, but it also makes up for some regrets.

Looking at Cheng Biting Jin, who was eating vegetables with his head down, Li Xiu suddenly thought of the chaotic situation in Chang'an City, and asked him with great interest at the moment: "General Cheng, you are the most trusted general of the King of Qin, and now the entire Chang'an City is constantly in dispute because of the prince's cultivation of private soldiers, I don't know what you think about this matter?"
