"Ziyuan has said so much, but if you have something to do, you have to hand it over to Jin?"

The conversation was almost noon, and after Zhuge Jin's wife brought the meal, the topic of the two of them finally came to an end.

Zhuge Jin was very smart. He knew that Lin Chen would never just say these words, and he would definitely let him do something.

"After all, I can't hide it from Ziyu."

Lin Chen laughed, lowered his voice and said something, and with Zhuge Jin's surprised expression, he solemnly said: "I'll ask Ziyu for this matter."

"Don't worry, Military Secretary Lin."

Zhuge Jin also hurriedly left the table and bowed: "Jin will definitely work with Zishan to do this together."

The conversation officially ended.

And just afternoon that day, people living in Wancheng suddenly discovered that at some point, the center of the city was surrounded by a group of people.

People are curious, and these days, there is nothing big about farming.

Therefore, more and more people gather.

“What is this doing?”

"What's inside?"

"It sounds like there are dogs barking, chickens crowing, cattle and sheep..."

"What?"

"Hot water, hot water, get out of the way...what is inside?"

Just as everyone was talking, the soldiers surrounding the central area finally slowly opened a hole.

Entering everyone's eyes, there are more than a dozen cages of animals such as pigs, cattle, sheep, and dogs.

"Why are you still splitting the switch?"

"Pig, dog, chicken, duck, goose, cow... one type, one, what are you doing?"

"Look, the person is out...but why is it so tightly? Even the face is not leaking?"

Very soon.

Two people wrapped in heavy clothes slowly walked out.

They first threw their clothes aside one by one, then washed up separately, and then spoke formally.

"Everyone is curious about what we are going to do, right?"

Zhuge Jin walked up with a smile, and said in a calm tone: "This is the comparison group proposed by Lin Chen and Lin Ziyuan, a military advisor under Duke Xuande."

"Someone may ask, what is the control group?"

"Actually, at the beginning, I was very curious, but later, I understood..."

"It turns out that since Jun Zheng Lin lost his father at a young age, he has been looking for the reason for his father's death."

"Fortunately, God blessed him and found him."

"It's not something else, it's just because I drank the river and the unboiled water in the stream."

When he said this, Zhuge Jin paused, waiting for the voice of questioning.

“Bad talk!”

Sure enough, before he could wait for a long time, an old man stood up: "I have been drinking the water from the stream since I was a child, so why didn't I get sick?"

"Yes, we all drank, why are you okay?"

"Isn't it a lie?"

Others also questioned.

This is the typical problem at present - the public has extremely distrust of the government.

Not to mention now, even when all the problems of the Han Dynasty had not erupted, there were many people who did not like the Han Dynasty.

Therefore, Lin Chen himself knew that if he wanted everyone to change their living habits, it was not something that could be done by just giving orders.

They must see it with their own eyes before they believe it.

By the way, through this incident, Liu Bei's army can still regain the trust of the people in the regime bit by bit.

So he asked Zhuge Jin and Bu Zhi to set up a comparison group, and each county had one.

"What this father-in-law said is good."

Zhuge Jin bowed to the old man in rags. This was the unique system of respect for the elderly in the Han Dynasty, and it began in the Qin Dynasty.

"I said it before I went down, and I didn't believe it, so I set up a control group."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a while, and after confirming that no one interrupted, he continued: "The meaning of the control group is to let the animals in it eat treated water and food, and the untreated water and food respectively, and finally see which one will get sick and which one will get sick less."

"In this way, everyone can clearly see whether Military Secretary Lin's statement is correct or incorrect."

At the end, Zhuge Jin looked at the thinking people and smiled and said, "I, like everyone else, want to know the final answer."

"So that's what it means."

"Donald Xuande is really a good person. He has done so many things to prevent us from getting sick."

"Whether you believe it or not, I won't drink cold water anyway."

"I don't believe it! I have lived at such an old age and have never heard of such a ridiculous thing. I will get sick if I drink water and eat? Why didn't I die?"

...

Just as the comparison group was set up in the city, Lin Chen and Mi Zhu met with the major families of the Jianghuai Channel.

The moment he took out the fine salt, people were not surprised.

In fact, they can also make such things, but it will only take a lot of effort.

In that case, not only will the output be small, but it will not make money.

Until Lin Chen announced that his salt-making method was not only fast, but also cheap. Even if he didn't care about transportation, he could make a big profit by selling only two big money, and the representatives sent by the wealthy families were excited.

"Of course, this is not enough. After all, just one salt industry cannot support us to make a fortune together."

Lin Chen was very calm at this time and said lightly: "In addition to salt, I also have ironware, pottery, and coal balls here... Let Zi Zhong explain these to you one by one."

No one objected.

"Okay, then I'll explain the benefits to you." After a while, Mi Zhu stood up and explained all the coal balls, pottery, iron and other things with a smile.

“We join!”

The Jiao family, the local wealthy family, raised their hands first, "With so many benefits, how can we not join? I just don't know... When will Lin Juncheng inform us of these technologies one by one?"

No one is a fool, they can see how great the benefits of this change are.

If they were replaced, they would definitely hide the secret recipe.

Perhaps a family that is too small will not hide it, nor dares to hide it, but when they can influence a county or even half a county in their every move, they will be qualified to hide.

They don’t believe that Lin Chen will make it public if he points out.

Of course, Lin Chen actually never thought about making it public.

It's really going to be made public. Will Liu Beijun eat dirt? Maybe after a while, these guys will leave them alone...

He even defected to Yuan Shu.

This is all possible, or even 100% possible.

"As technology, this thing is achieved through our efforts, so to make technology public, it must be recognized by most people..."

Lin Chen said this and smiled at the representative of the Jiao family, "Didn't you just say you want to join? Then now I ask you, I want to disclose the technology to the world, are you willing?"

"I don't want to." The representative of the Jiao family knew that as soon as this was said, he would be very passive, but he still had to nod.

"That's right. If you have the ability, you can convince everyone, namely General Guan, General Zhang, Mr. Mi, Sun Gongcao... and I, Mr. Lin, will naturally get the technology."

Lin Chen said this in a calm tone, and finally he smiled and said, "And you all will be one of them at that time. If your Jiao family wants technology, they may have to bribe the others present."

The Jiao family representative turned pale, but then he turned into an excited red color.

Not only him, but also representatives of the Qiao family, Zhang family, etc., were full of excitement on their faces at this moment.

Because Lin Chen's words clearly told them a truth.

When the framework of the joint-stock caravan is established, everyone will become an alliance of interests.

Perhaps, there will still be a struggle for power and profit within the inside, but externally...

With so many people combined, even if they are famous families in the world, what can they do?

What's more, Liu Bei is just starting out now, and this group may become bigger and bigger in the future...

By the end, I'm afraid even Liu Bei himself will not be able to break up this interest alliance, right?

Of course, he doesn't need to break up, because according to the design of the interest alliance, he is the biggest beneficiary.

"I'll join!"
