"Is Ziyuan's doubt resolved?"

While Lin Chen was thinking, Zhuge Jin was silent and spoke until he gradually came to his senses.

"If it weren't for Ziyu..."

Lin Chen was interrupted just as he was about to express his gratitude.

Zhuge Jin shook his head and said, "It's just a little bit of trivial matters. Even without Jin, Ziyuan can think clearly by himself."

Although it is not polite to interrupt others' words, Zhuge Jin obviously does not want to be grateful to Lin Chen for this little thing.

"Okay, let's talk about something big."

Seeing that Zhuge Jin really didn't want to continue this topic, Lin Chen took a deep breath and said, "Ziyu thinks, what is the first thing we need to do now?"

"have no idea."

Zhuge Jin remembered what he saw on the road and heard the various decrees issued by Lin Chen, and shook his head simply.

He really doesn't know what to do first.

According to his Zhuge Jin's experience, he subconsciously felt that he should first consolidate his foundation at this time.

But the problem is that the several joint-stock caravans that Lin Chen wants to set up are enough to perfectly solve this problem.

As long as this framework is built, it can really make local wealthy families more profitable...

Zhuge Jin can guarantee that even if those people spend all their family property, they will die to maintain everything they have.

It can be said that when the innovation of the joint-stock caravan was completed, countless forces of all sizes would be bound to the big carriage of Liu Beijun.

To consolidate the foundation, you don’t need to do it at all.

What after?

Recruiting troops? Reclaiming wasteland? Building water conservancy? Maintaining peace under the rule?

Sorry, in Zhuge Jin's opinion, Lin Chen has roughly built a system for the above matters.

As long as there are executives, it can almost be said to start in an instant.

For example, maintaining peace under governance is, according to experience, this is the most difficult thing to do in troubled times.

But.

As long as the joint-stock caravan is successful, many wealthy families and even some aristocratic families will be directly bound.

They might also spontaneously maintain public order.

Of course, even if they don’t want to, some of their families even have a few lieutenants who do evil every day, bullying men and women...

But don’t forget that Liu Bei’s army has set up military farm troops in various places.

While they are responsible for recruiting soldiers and horses, their own strength should not be underestimated. In addition, the wealthy families and large families will not interfere with the matters of caravans.

It can be said that as long as Liu Bei gave his order, his rule can reach the level of prosperity in an instant...even higher than that.

Building water conservancy? The racks are set up, but only the executives are missing...

Reclaiming wasteland? Are the soldiers in the military farm watching and playing?

what else?

After thinking about this, Zhuge Jin suddenly felt confused.

Therefore, after seeing Lin Chen's expression on his face, he said barely: "Everything I can think of, Ziyuan is either doing it or has built a system, and as long as the executor is in place..."

"Jin, I really don't know what to do." As he said that, he spread his hands with a frank look on his face.

"Forehead……"

Lin Chen opened his mouth and then slowly spoke for a while: "What Ziyu said is true, but you have never thought about... what is the biggest problem we are facing now?"

“The biggest problem?”

Zhuge Jin frowned, thought for a moment before tentatively saying, "Yuan Shu?"

"Don't care about the dry bones in Yuan Shu's tomb." Lin Chen waved his hand and said with disdain.

Zhuge Jin: "..."

Zhuge Jin, who had always thought he was eloquent, found out for the first time that he could not speak.

What else to say?

Cao Cao?

What are you kidding? Cao Cao has great potential, but the problem is that if he wants to attack Liu Bei, he has to fight Yuan Shu first.

Liu Biao?

This person is not only Liu Bei at the moment, but even Zhuge Jin himself looks down on him.

Just a dog guarding the land.

This is not what he was thinking about randomly, but the facts.

There is a prerequisite question here: How long has Liu Biao been in charge of Jingzhou?

It is possible for anyone to answer, probably because Dong Zhuo is in chaos.

In other words, five or six years have passed, six or seven years have passed?

Then what?

Then, he now only occupied a Nanjun and was still in a situation of co-governance with various major families.

Going north, his power cannot extend beyond Nanyang.

Going south, his power is saddened by the Yangtze River.

There is nothing to say about being just like this.

"The lifespan of everyone!"

Seeing Zhuge Jin, Lin Chen could not imagine that Lin Chen could only speak by himself: "Tiyu can tell that what is the average life span of ordinary people today?"

"Thirty-five or six?" Zhuge Jin tentatively said a number, while thinking in his heart, what's the point of this matter?

He never believed that Lin Chen would just ask an irrelevant question.

"I'm over thirty!"

Lin Chen slapped the table with a heartache and said, "Tiyu, do you know that at the age of thirty, he is just in his prime, and he is the pillar of the family, but..."

He had to stop when he said this.

Because, sadness appeared on Zhuge Jin's face.

He forgot that the fathers of Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Jin and Zhuge Jun died very early.

"Ziyuan doesn't have to care about Jin, please continue talking!" Zhuge Jin quickly recovered and signaled the person opposite to continue talking with anticipation.

This is a person who can be united.

Lin Chen immediately concluded his mind.

"A great man like Uncle Zhuge is also..."

So, after sighing, he changed his mind and said, "My father also died of illness, and the source of the disease is now almost clear..."

Speaking of this, he talked about the most serious symptoms of malaria, schistosomiasis and dysentery that he had discovered before.

"My father died of dysentery." Zhuge Jin said sadly.

“…Sad.”

After thinking for a while, Lin Chen finally said only these two words, and then, with Zhuge Jin's encouragement, he said: "However, after my hard work in my youth, I finally discovered one thing in common between these diseases."

"What is it?!" Zhuge Jin's eyes suddenly turned red.

"water!"

Lin Chen picked up the clear water that had never been moved in front of him: "It is this small cup of clear water that is hidden deep in endless murderous intent!"

"What do you mean?" Zhuge Jin said in confusion: "What's the problem with this water?"

"Yes, so much!"

Lin Chen nodded firmly, shook the cup in his hand and said, "There may be countless insects that are hard to see in this glass of water."

"It is these insects that cause a person to suffer from sudden illness, or even die..."

"What Ziyuan said is a worm?"

After Zhuge Jin suddenly realized the truth, he grabbed Lin Chen's hand and said, "This insect may be destroyed?"

"sure!"

Lin Chen was not surprised at Zhuge Jin's reaction - he had extraordinary memory in his plug-in state and had long recalled the records of this parasite in ancient China.

Among them, in the Han Dynasty, Xu Shen, a 'Xu Jun' who was later honored as the saint of the name, wrote "Gu, the insect in the belly" in his book "Shuowen".
