Li Yi didn't have much confidence in the medicine since he didn't check it.
Li Longji and Empress Wang felt hopeful. Li Longji held the medicine bottle tightly.
"Third Brother, don't drink or stay up late. Eat two boiled eggs a day, mutton and rice. Braised liver is also good. Steamed fish is delicious."
Li Yi advised the patient's family.
"If this medicine doesn't work … Take it for a month or two. I'll take the medicine out in a hurry." Li Yi couldn't say more.
Without waiting for the two to thank him, Li Yi changed the topic. "Soap can also make money. Third Brother, do you want to do it?"
"No, Brother Yi. You don't have to give us money. The spiced tea eggs are enough."
Li Longji refused to do the business himself and thought of the tea eggs.
The income of the six of them was 2,800 coins, with a discount of 2,800,000 yuan.
The net profit was 4,000,000 yuan, with a discount of 500 coins per egg.
So, they sold more than 10,000 tea eggs.
It seemed a lot, but this was Chang 'an. Not to mention the people in the city, the peddlers also bought a lot.
Empress Wang made 2,800,000 yuan in just a month.
It was not a small number. It was more than 9,300 buckets of rice.
Yes, it was earned by Empress Wang. She didn't intend to share it with others.
In Chang 'an, no one dared to touch soy sauce and 100 boiled eggs.
If you offended the emperor, you could count on him to be magnanimous.
If you offended the empress, the emperor would never be magnanimous.
Those who didn't have the ability to touch these two things couldn't touch them. Those who had the ability didn't dare to touch them.
Everyone knew that they came from Li Yi and Zhuangzi, but no one came to find trouble.
Empress Wang was happy with the dividends today.
"I'm not in a hurry to sell the soap. There are too many things to make money and people hate me. My Zhuangzi uses it and I give some to my brothers. I don't care about others. The main thing is that I'm afraid the emperor will think of it. "
Li Yi explained the situation and temporarily stopped selling the soap.
Soy sauce and Herbal Tea Eggs cost a lot of money. Even the relatives of the imperial family would not be able to handle it. What if Li Longji became jealous?
Li Yi felt that this was not a problem with Li Longji's personality. If it were anyone else, they would think twice when they saw someone crazily making money.
"Brother Yi, you are very thoughtful." Li Longji said helplessly. Why am I thinking about it?
What I want is you as a person. I don't care about soy sauce, five-spice tea eggs, or soap.
I want to see how you make Zhuangzi better and better. I want to see how you continue to bring out divine weapons that benefit the country and the people.
"I'm not overthinking, but I'm really worried. Sister-in-law, am I right?" Li Yi asked Empress Wang.
Empress Wang held back her laughter and nodded. "Yes, uncle is right."
Then she said to Li Longji, "San Lang, you have to be careful of Her Majesty."
Li Longji: "… …"
"Let's eat somewhere else. The wind is blowing again." An unpleasant smell drifted over.
Everyone hurriedly got off the cart and ran away.
After a while, they arrived at the place where the bricks were made. A group of people were bare-chested, with a piece of cloth over their shoulders. They were making bricks with mud and bricks.
Sweat flowed down their cheeks and the muscles on their bodies.
Under the moonlight and the light of the fire, their bodies lit up.
Some of the people working had missing fingers and some were lame.
They chatted as they worked, and a smile appeared on their resolute faces.
Next to them was a large wooden bucket. A woman on duty covered the spoons and bowls of soup with a piece of cloth.
Some people were sweating too much. When they came over, she gave them a bowl of soup.
This person gulped down the soup and turned to work again.
Li Longji looked and knew that these were retired soldiers. They could not survive and fled to this place. They were sent to Zhuangzi by his elder brother.
He personally approved and provided these people with crossbows and armor.
Although they were injured, these people could not be defeated by a random 100-man team in Chang 'an with the same equipment.
Thirty-six households, thirty-six people. Fighting a 100-man team was like playing.
How could an army that had not killed anyone compare to those that had survived the battlefield?
"Uncle, what soup are they drinking?" Empress Wang stood beside the cart and looked at those people with appreciation.
Her family was a family of military generals. She was also the mastermind who persuaded Li Longji to rise in rebellion.
When Li Longji broke into the palace, she was armed.
"Mutton bone and mutton giblets soup. There are green onions and coriander. Oh, coriander. The person who serves the soup will put green onions, coriander, pepper, and a little salt at the bottom of the soup. "
Li Yi knew what soup it was. He specifically instructed.
Although the people working were hot and sweating a lot, they still had to replenish their water and heat.
It accelerated the body's metabolism. Sweat water did not go to the kidneys.
If it was cold water, part of the body's heat would go to the kidneys.
Urine was always hot. If the body's organs were heated for a long time, the damage would be too great.
Others might not understand, but he could not pretend that he did not know. The people on Zhuangzi's bed were obedient. They drank hot water when he asked them to.
The sun was high at noon. If they drank cold water, it would be cold water.
"Give me half a bowl. Do you want to drink it, San Lang? Oh, one bowl. "Empress Wang went over and asked the woman to drink the soup.
The woman took the bowl. There was something in the bowl. She scooped the soup and asked, "Do you have oil?"
"No, I still want to eat. I can't eat with too much oil." Empress Wang explained. She did not have the attitude of an empress at all.
Empress Wang scooped out the soup and brought it back. She put it between her and Li Longji. "San Lang, let's drink it together."
"Sister-in-law, it's time to change shifts. Are you still watching your man? Go to sleep. I'll watch your man. "
A few more women came over and changed shifts with the women here.
One of them joked.
"Here, I'll go to your house after changing shifts. Your man is also next to you. I don't know if you can take it."
This woman was not weak at all. She retorted.
The people around laughed. The fatigue in their bodies seemed to disappear a lot.
Li Longji also laughed and then fell into deep thought.
Brother Yi's Zhuangzi had three shifts. It was better than the palace.
There were people to replace Zhuangzi at any time. Those who changed shifts could rest for a long time. When they had enough sleep, they would naturally be free.
However, their efficiency was not low at all. It was faster than a person working all the time.
What was the reason?
Ask if you don't understand.
"Brother Yi, why do people who take turns to rest for a long time work more than people who work all the time?"
"In detail, it involves the psychology and physiology of a person. It's too complicated. Simply put, if you have enough rest, you can exert all your strength in eight hours. "
Li Yi's explanation was very simple.
These eight hours were for outbursts. To be precise, it was more than twelve hours. There was also the time to eat and rest after meals.
The more one worked, the more tired one would be. The more tired one was, the slower one would be.
Especially when it came to physical work, there was a limit to how long the muscles could withstand fatigue.
If they were guarding the door, it did not matter. They could watch while resting.
Li Yi paused and added, "The three shifts in the logistics department give the people working a kind of dependence and relaxation."
"Because they know that they can eat at any time and take a hot bath at any time."
"Especially the logistics patrol personnel. They walk around and show that Zhuangzi is safe."
"Those who are tired from work and change shifts to sleep will sleep soundly without any worries."
"This is called humane management. The price paid is proportional to the benefits."
Li Yi said. Li Longji and Empress Wang tried hard to remember and ponder to keep up with the rhythm.
Many of the words sounded unfamiliar, but after thinking about it, they understood the meaning.
