Chapter 231: A Soldier Is Sick and Lacks Vitamins?

"Then you say, since the Knight of Honor is so powerful, why did His Majesty give it to me? Just because I made their Dawn Pioneer shares make money?"

Luo Yin asked with some curiosity.

Novia shook her head:

"I don't know, but it's certainly not going to be easy! After all, no matter how poor the royal family is, it is impossible to be poor enough to be poor enough to miss this amount of money...... All I can think of is that His Majesty is trying to woo you, or is there some other purpose......

Misha shook Luo Yin's hand with some concern.

She doesn't care how powerful the Knight of Honor is, she only cares if Luo Yin will be calculated and whether he will be harmed.

"It's okay, it's a good thing for me now anyway."

Luo Yin gently squeezed Misha's little hand and comforted.

Novia looked at the two of them and was a little unhappy.

This Luo Yin, he said before that there was nothing between him and Misha, but this seems to be nothing! Swindler!

"What's wrong?"

Looking at Novia, who suddenly frowned, Luo Yin asked strangely.

"It's fine. I'm just trying to figure out how to beat you up—oh no, to help you think about what His Majesty's purpose is."

Novia almost said what was in her heart.

"Hey, let's not worry about it for now, it's useless for us to just think about it, anyway, if there is any purpose, His Majesty will definitely contact me. Let's just ignore all of this, and just say that my Knight of Honor is really useful in Panshan City?"

Luo Yin asked a little unconfidently.

"Of course! You can rest assured that in this army, apart from the orders of the superiors, there is nothing more useful than the Order of the Glory Knight, after all, it represents the highest honor of the king!"

Novia affirmed.

"That's good! But how to do it, we have to wait for Luke to come back and ask him about the situation, but I can't do it, so I'll have to make a trip myself......

Luo Yin sighed. He originally said that after Lucia came, he would have a good rest and rest, but after all, it was a hard life!

In the afternoon, Novia also began to initiate relations and investigate the situation in Panshan City. Although it is said that Luo Yin wore the Knight of Honor in the past, he may play an unexpected role. But she didn't really want Luo Yin to go over, after all, it was a border, and it was very messy.

Luo Yin didn't care, and was even a little eager to try.

Although he rarely shows force, his physical fitness is comparable to that of orcs, not to mention, let's just say that his elusive spear drawing skills should be impossible for most people to prevent.

Hetty and Janet are also trying to collect information about Panshan City. The two of them even said that if Luo Yin went, they must take them with them.

"What? Do you two care about me?"

Luo Yin looked at the two beautiful policemen and asked with a smile.

"Don't be self-inflicted, I just don't want to see Sister Miyan sad!"

"Of course I care about adults!"

Both spoke at the same time.

But there is one person who refuses to admit it.

Hetty glared at Janet fiercely, and Janet quickly lowered her head.

It's a taboo in the workplace to have a different opinion from the top boss!

Janet was suddenly a little aggrieved, why is this Director Herty duplicitous, obviously she is very worried, but she refuses to admit it, making it difficult for her to speak.

Luo Yin said with some amusement:

"Okay, we'll talk about it then."

The next day, when Luo Yin was preparing for the listing trip, Lunn suddenly came with news, and it was not good news.

"Mr. Luo Yin, there seems to be something wrong with Shuguang Company!"

"Huh? What's going on!"

Luo Yin hurriedly asked.

After all, this is a super company with a market value of two billion, and Luo Yin also has some shares, so he is naturally very concerned about their news.

"After more than a month of fighting, the Dawning Company still hasn't taken Bleka, but it hasn't lost much of its staff. And there are more attrition on the indigenous side, after all

There is a difference between the indigenous, combat effectiveness and us. So although the situation of Shuguang is not very good, it is actually not bad. If they are given some more time, they should be able to take Breka without a hitch, but ......."

Lunn sighed.

"However, just a few days ago, although the Dawning Company did not lose its personnel in battle, it lost a lot of soldiers due to illness!"

Luo Yin was taken aback.

"Sick? What disease?"

It's terrible to get sick in a place like this! If it's some acute infectious disease or something, then the fleet of the Dawning Company may be finished!

Lunn continued:

"It's not an acute infectious disease...... They had some diarrhea, constipation, abdominal pain, weakness, gum rot, anemia, ......

Lunn said a lot at once.

Luo Yin frowned suddenly.

Although the current medical level of the kingdom cannot be said to be very good, it can be regarded as a certain level, and these diseases can only be said to be minor diseases from a single point of view.

But if these diseases are concentrated together, or at sea, in remote places where medical measures are not developed, then the harm of this disease will be great!

That's what Lunn said, too.

"Although they are all minor diseases, in this kind of place, at such a time, they can evolve into fatal diseases! There are doctors who are traveling with Shuguang, but the effect is not great, after all, there is a lack of many medicines. The Dawning Company had already purchased medicine from some caravans around me, and I took the opportunity to talk to them and found out that they had lost their staff due to illness......

"Then that's a problem!"

Luo Yin sighed.

"Not really! According to my observations, although it seems that only a few people died of illness, which is not as much as the sacrifice on the battlefield, the morale of those soldiers has been reduced a lot, and if there is no solution for a long time, then the colonial development of the Dawning Company may fail......

Lunn naturally hoped that the colony would succeed, after all, for them merchants, the colony represented a huge benefit.

"Do you know what the specific reason for getting sick is?"

Luo Yin asked again.

"I don't know, a lot of people are helpless right now. But I feel like I'm getting food poisoning? I heard that some of their food was not well preserved, and some of it was moldy and rotten, so they are trying to catch fish and shrimp to eat, but if they catch something poisonous, they can......'t say for sure."

Lunn runs outside all year round, and he knows a little about survival in the wild. He knows that in the wild, sometimes the biggest enemy can be food.

Bleka is an uncivilized land, and since the Dawning Company has not been able to enter, it has been wandering around the periphery, so there is nothing wrong with saying that it is wild.

And after Luo Yin heard Lunen's words, he was stunned.

"Food Spoiled ......"

He seemed to have caught something.

"Yes, I've heard that a lot of food is rotten, after all, at sea, the environment is humid, and their preservation methods on land may not work."

Lunn explained.

"I seem to have understood, hang up first!"

"Hey, you understand what......

Ignoring Lunen's grievances, Luo Yin called the Dawning Company in the royal capital.

"Hello, Mr. Luo Yin!"

"Hello!"

After the two sides were polite, Luo Yin asked him about the food of the Dawning Company's fleet.

The other party didn't know why, and he didn't know why Luo Yin was asking this. However, he said that there was no problem and asked Luo Yin to wait.

After all, this is not a secret, and Luo Yin himself is also a minority shareholder of Shuguang Company, so he has the right to know this.

Soon, this person brought a list and gave Luo Yin a list to read one by one. On the other side, Luo Yin gave Misha a look, Misha brought a pen and paper, and the two recorded while listening.

After the other party finished reading, Luo Yin thanked him and hung up the call.

Then he looked at the list of foods in his hand, and suddenly confirmed his guess even more.

"Brother

Gone?"

Misha asked with some curiosity.

"I can probably understand why those soldiers of the Dawning Company are sick!"

Misha had been beside her just now, so she naturally heard the conversation between Luo Yin and Lunen, and she asked with some curiosity:

"What is the reason?"

"It's because of the food! But most likely, it's not food poisoning, it's because of unbalanced nutrition and lack of vitamins!"

Luo Yin affirmed.

Although orcs retain some of the characteristics of beasts and have some of the innate abilities of beasts, in the final analysis, they are still dominated by the human aspect. Their bodies are most likely unable to synthesize vitamins on their own, as some animals do.

"Huh? Unbalanced nutrition, lack of vitamins? What is a vitamin?"

Misha looked at Luo Yin a little confused.

Luo Yin smiled and rubbed her hair, then explained.

"I looked at the list of foods they carried, and it was mostly meat-based. After all, the energy in meat is high, and eating more meat is good for having the strength to fight, which can be understood. But they have fewer vegetables, and even fewer fruits. And fresh vegetables and fruits rot after a few days, which is more difficult to preserve than meat! Vegetables and fruits are rich in vitamins, which are substances that our body needs and can only be obtained from the outside world......

"What does my brother mean that these people get sick because they don't have vegetables and fruits to eat?"

Misha was stunned. Although she doesn't know what vitamins are, she usually cooks with meat and vegetables.

Even when she was poorer in the past, she often ate vegetables or something, and at that time, her sisters were still young and didn't like to eat vegetables very much, and Misha even coaxed them to let them eat them.

Misha couldn't make any sense, but she knew that she couldn't eat these things.

"Yes, eating meat often does not mean that the nutrition is not balanced, but that constipation is enough to make people suffer...... This is at sea, on Nansmon Island! Under such medical conditions, a small illness can be fatal!"

Luo Yin nodded with a serious face.

"That...... Aren't these soldiers in danger? Can we remind them?"

Misha said with some concern.

Looking at the worry in the eyes of the kind kitten mother, Luo Yin held her hand and said:

"Of course I will. But reminding them doesn't necessarily solve the problem. After all, Nansmonzhou is so far away from us, and it is not cheap to transport fresh vegetables and fruits there, and due to technical reasons, it is not easy to save time...... So there is a high probability that it will not solve the problem. Unless you come back first, you can think about it in the long run, but this is a big loss!"

Looking at Luo Yinping's expression, Misha suddenly asked:

"Is there a way for my brother?"

Luo Yin glanced at Misha with some surprise and said with a smile:

"Misha saw this? Misha still understands me!"

Misha smiled a little shyly and looked at Luo Yin with bright eyes.

"The main problem is preservation, and if you can store fruits and vegetables for a long time, then these problems can be solved. I don't know if there is such a method anywhere else, but apparently there is no such preservation technology in the Kingdom. And I happen to know a relatively simple way to save it...... That's it, canned!"

Luo Yin explained.

"Canned? Is that the kind of canned food we eat?"

Misha was a little surprised, and even licked her lips subconsciously, canned fish is delicious!

There were a lot of canned foods that Luo Yin took out of the blue whirlpool, but they had never entered the market, and they were all digested internally.

"Little gluttonous cat!" Luo Yin scratched Misha's nose and said, "That's right, it's this kind of can. To be precise, canned vegetables and fruits, as long as they can make a large number of canned vegetables and fruits for them, they can replenish the vitamins in their bodies, and then these minor diseases will most likely be solved."

There is such a thing as canned food, Luo Yin has never seen it in this world. Including in the Case Empire, he hasn't seen it either.

It's actually not difficult to make this thing, first of all, you have to figure out the principle of canning.

The reason why canned food can preserve food for a long time without spoiling is not that a lot of preservatives are added to canned food. but because of the fact that the container is sealed and strictly sterilized.

If you want to make canned food, you must first heat the raw materials sufficiently to kill the microorganisms, and at the same time heat and sterilize the canned food itself, then put the sterile food into a sterile container, seal it while it is hot, and finally heat sterilize.

After the can is cooled, the volume of air inside the top of the can shrinks, which will produce negative pressure, and the originally sealed bottle will not be opened, and it is impossible for bacteria outside to enter.

In this way, the food inside the can can be stored for a long time.

As long as you get more canned vegetables and fruits, not to mention delicious, you can also supplement vitamins for soldiers and prevent them from getting sick.

The Aurora, or the United Kingdom of Stokato, was clearly inexperienced in ocean-going warfare, and they had never fought so far away, and they did not take into account the imbalance in the nutrition of soldiers caused by a long war.

As for other countries, such as the Sirius Empire, they have colonized a lot of places and often fought at sea, so they obviously have a way to solve the problem of nutritional balance. Whether it's canned food, or something else, Luo Yin doesn't know. Anyway, he just had to get the can out.

He doesn't care much about whether he makes money or not, he just doesn't want to watch these soldiers suffer from illness, after all, he is a kind person.

Luo Yin and Misha went on a trip to the mountains.

Although the principle of canning is simple to say, professionals do professional things.

Luo Yin felt that if he got the cans out by himself, he didn't know how long it would take, and he could afford to wait, but those soldiers couldn't afford to wait.

So it's up to the dwarves.

After seeing the dwarf, Luo Yin explained his intention, and they were all very surprised when they heard it.

Although they don't know much about bacteria and microorganisms, they still have a lot of experience in daily life, and they know that the better the seal, the less likely things are to break.

"Sounds good!"

"You can try!"

They're a little interested.

Luo Yin was not polite, and directly handed over the task of making canned food to them. As long as you know the principle of this thing, it shouldn't be difficult to make.

With the current technology, the canned food made must not be compared to what Luo Yin took out of the blue vortex, but Luo Yin's requirements are not high. Not to mention that it can be stored for a few years or more than ten years, as long as it can be stored for a few months, or even one or two months, it is a big deal to send the goods several times when the time comes.

Bidding farewell to the dwarves, Luo Yin asked Lun to help register a company overseas. It's called Violet Foods.

When the cans come out, the company will produce and sell them.

Lucia has been busy with the affairs of the Dawn Company for the time being, after all, building a car is a troublesome matter, and Luo Yin did not trouble her, and the food company will worry about it first.

Then Luo Yin communicated with Wang Du, saying that he suspected that these illnesses were related to food, and that it would be good to add more vegetables and fruits.

The other party was not surprised that Luo Yin knew the news that the soldier was sick, but after hearing Luo Yin say that the illness was related to food, they were a little speechless. The food of the colonial fleet was calculated and prepared by them, how could something go wrong?

The other party said a perfunctory sentence and said a word of thanks.

Luo Yin shrugged, anyway, he said it, if the other party doesn't believe it, it's none of his business.

Soon, the news of the illness of the soldiers of the fleet of the Dawning Company came back, and this kind of news could not be hidden, after all, there was a walk-ie. And Shuguang also needs outside help, and they can't hide it.

After the domestic people got the news, they were all looking down.

Some people even began to scold the Dawning Company, saying that this colonization was not the right decision at all.

The populace was now roughly divided into two factions, one believing that the colonial fleet should return quickly, or more people would die. There are friends and relatives among them!

The other faction thinks that they must not come back, and even if they come back, they must bring back some results, otherwise the stocks they bought will lose money!

For a time, the two sides argued with each other

, and even scolding.

As for the behind-the-scenes driving forces of colonization, the royal family and the government, although many people know about it, there are also many people who don't know it.

After all, none of them are directly involved, but in the name of their respective holding companies.

So in this scolding war, they were not affected, and the firepower was all on the Dawning Company itself.

This is also the reason why the royal family and the government chose to establish the Dawning Company, rather than direct leadership.

However, they were not scolded much, but the Dawning Company was unlucky, no matter how the two factions argued, they all scolded the Dawning Company.

The scolding actually didn't matter, the main thing was that the people had a distrust of Shuguang, and this distrust was quickly reflected in the stocks.

The last colonial obstruction caused the stock of Shuguang Company to fall by nineteen yuan, and this time the soldier's illness and death caused the stock of Shuguang Company to plummet.

In just one day, it dropped from sixteen dollars to twelve dollars!

If it weren't for the closure of the exchange, I feel like it would be possible to fall ten dollars!

This instantly made many people unable to sit still, and they were thinking of a way, but it was useless, they couldn't control the thoughts of so many shareholders.

Even Qiongbi Military Industry has been affected, and the stock price has reached one hundred and five, although it has not risen much, but it has not fallen much and stabilized.

As a result, affected by this incident, one hundred and two fell at once. is one dollar less than Shuguang Company, and it is almost about to fall out of the market value of 100 million.

In the past, Qiongbi's military industry rose because the people still had confidence that as long as there were enough arms, they could successfully colonize.

But he hasn't killed the enemy yet, and his own people died of illness first, so how can this battle be fought.

So Qiongbi Military Industry naturally fell.

Luo Yin was helpless about this, this was not something he could control. It's a pity that there are no pharmaceutical companies listed now, otherwise this wave may rise a lot.

The next day, Shuguang Company hurriedly issued an announcement.

It means that the colonial fleet will not be withdrawn, they are trying to find a way to solve the problem, and at the same time, they are also asking for help from various hospitals and people from all walks of life, if anyone can solve this problem, they will directly reward 100,000 coins!

Luo Yin felt that they were a little petty, only 100,000 joint coins, who did they look down on!

But the others are different, 100,000 coins, that's a lot of money!

And many people, including Shuguang Company, feel that this should not be a serious disease, and the reason why they can't cure it is because they haven't found the cause for the time being, and then drag it out. But these diseases themselves are not fatal.

Now, as long as you figure out how these diseases are obtained, even if there is no way to treat them for the time being, as long as you can't do it in the future, then there will be no problem.

So 100,000 yuan is already a lot, after all, solving the problem is not necessarily a good treatment, and it is also possible to prevent and treat it.

The people of the whole country have come up with various solutions under the stimulus of this 100,000 yuan reward.

Dawning also did not refuse to come, saying that as long as they can be sure that these plans are effective, they will immediately give cash rewards.

But after three days of trying, none of these methods worked. Neither the solution proposed by ordinary people nor the solution proposed by professional doctors is useless. Sick or sick.

This made the people of Shuguang a little panicked.

Didn't you say that these were minor ailments? Why is it so difficult to solve!

When Shuguang proposed to solicit solutions from the society, Shuguang's stock did not fall again, and remained at 12 yuan. After all, many people still maintain a wait-and-see attitude.

But when it turned out that it didn't work, the stock started to fall again.

And this time it's even harder than last time!

It fell directly to eight dollars!

That's less than the ten dollars at the time of listing!

At its peak, the market value of Shuguang reached 2.5 billion, and now, after a month or two, it has fallen to 800 million!

This is unacceptable to many people.

After all, when it fell before, too

You can use the saying "If you buy it for ten dollars, as long as it doesn't fall to ten yuan, you won't lose money", but now it's down to ten dollars!

All the shareholders of Dawning are losing!

Oh no, this doesn't include Luo Yin, after all, Luo Yin has already earned eighty million before. The 500,000 shares in his hand were only 5 million when he bought them at that time, and if they fell, they fell, and even if they all fell, he would not lose.

It's just that, looking at the stock price of this eight yuan, Luo Yin was a little hesitant.

"Do you want to ...... Copying the bottom of the waves?"
