However, this idea only passed by in a flash, because Wang Shouzhe only knew that the earliest sodium glutamate was extracted from kelp, but the content of sodium glutamate in kelp was very low, making it difficult to carry out industrial operations.
Modern technology is to extract sodium glutamate from soybeans and other crops through microbial fermentation.
However, Wang Shouzhe knew almost nothing about the refining process and principles of sodium glutamate, so it would take him a long time to develop his own research and development. Therefore, he had to put aside the idea of making a fortune for the time being, and it would be safer to start by improving and optimizing the family industry.
"Second brother, you understand the principle. I hope you will seize the time to experiment and improve. Don't let Uncle Liu's fishing team work hard to catch live fish. Of course, you must also keep our Wang family's secrets. If you believe this, how can you do it?
Knows better than me."
After Wang Shouzhe gave a few instructions, he led his generals to leave.
After Wang Shouyi got the "inheritance", he was itching for a long time. He didn't even bother to give it to Wang Shouzhe, so he couldn't wait to try it. Once successful, the family's traditional industry of fish stalls will be able to give full play to its advantages.
The gate of Changning Weidong City.
After leaving the city, there is a straight and wide official road.
Wang Shouzhe and his two generals galloped straight ahead, and within an hour they arrived at Changning Ferry in Anjiang.
Changning Ferry is Guandu, and is actually controlled by the Changning Wei government. The tentacles of the three aristocratic families in Ping'an Town stop abruptly here, which is a clear dividing line.
A general of the Wang family had been waiting here for a long time. As soon as he saw Wang Shouzhe and others, he came up to him and said, "Wang Wu meets the master of the family."
"Excuse me, are the aunt and fifth sister here?" When Wang Shouzhe left the family that night, he left a letter to Gongsun Hui and asked her to act according to the plan in the letter.
"Please tell me, the master of the family." Wang Wu said respectfully, "The carriages of Madam Hui and Miss Fifth are already waiting in front."
Under Wang Wu's guidance, Wang Shouzhe quickly joined Gongsun Hui and others. After getting on the carriage, Gongsun Hui first poured a cup of tea for Wang Shouzhe, with a worried look on his face: "Zhe'er, what you said in your letter,
Is it really that serious?”
"I'm afraid it's more serious than imagined." Wang Shouzhe took a sip of tea to calm down and said with a frown, "Qian's Trading Company's properties are all over Longzuo, but they are not aware of this matter. It can be seen that at least within the scope of Longzuo County,
No major force has issued early warning about this disaster."
"How could this be so?" Gongsun Hui said with a pale face, "There are so many wealthy and aristocratic families in Longzuo County, and no one is aware of it? If so, wouldn't it be true that many civilians will suffer?"
"Auntie, you are worrying too much. If the sky is going to fall, there will be no tall people to hold it up. All we little Wangs can do is go with the flow. How to survive and grow is the right way." Wang Shouzhe said calmly, "But auntie
It makes sense. The huge Longzuo County cannot be the first one to notice the insect plague. Maybe most people will ignore it, but there will always be some families who are aware of something fishy and secretly make preparations in advance. Or there may be someone who has already done so.
A warning was issued, but the news has not yet reached us in Changning."
Human nature is all common.
After Wang Shouzhe discovered this matter, he immediately kept it strictly confidential and prepared to take advantage of the opportunity to make a fortune. Most of the other families who discovered this matter by luck or ability also thought the same.
What's more, Wang Shouzhe discovered this matter very late and only had time to adapt to the situation. Even if he publicizes this matter, it will only cause chaos to break out early, which will not help the overall situation at all.
"Zhe'er, you're right. It's good that our small family can take care of ourselves now." Gongsun Hui also said with relief, "The Daqian government and Zifu Academy, as well as those wealthy families, will definitely take care of themselves at the critical moment. Take action to provide disaster relief. Zhe'er, if you can think of saving the Gongsun family at this juncture, I would like to thank you first on behalf of the Gongsun family of Shanyang."
"What are you talking about, Madam? The Gongsun family and our Wang family have been intermarried for generations, and they have been united by blood for a long time. They should help each other." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "It just so happens that I haven't visited my grandfather for a long time and paid my respects to his old man."
As far as Wang Shouzhe knows, the intermarriage between the Gongsun family and the Wang family is really deep. Take Gongsun Mo, the contemporary patriarch of the Gongsun family, his biological grandmother is the fourth-generation legitimate daughter of the Wang family - Wang Lingdie, aunt Gongsun Hui still has to call her great-grandmother.
When the Wang family was in the fourth generation, they also married the Gongsun family's legitimate daughter, who was Wang Shouzhe's great-grandmother.
It can be seen from this that the direct relationship between the Gongsun family and the Wang family is very close.
When the word "grandfather" was mentioned, Gongsun Hui was stunned for a moment and then suddenly felt a little happy. She said with emotion: "Zhe'er, you have really grown up and become sensible."
Although Gongsun Hui is not Wang Shouzhe's biological mother, she is his aunt's mother. Her father, Gongsun Mo, is naturally Wang Shouzhe's maternal grandfather. However, Wang Shouzhe's predecessor has been relatively withdrawn since childhood. When he visited Gongsun Mo several times since childhood, he was relatively indifferent. , are not very close to each other.
As for Gongsun Hui, after marrying Wang Dingyue, she only gave birth to a legitimate daughter but not a legitimate son, so all her attention was focused on her legitimate son Wang Shouzhe.
This is the case according to the laws of the Daqian Kingdom and the rules that all Xuanwu families abide by. Regardless of whether they are biological or not, the relationship between the eldest mother and the eldest son is a serious mother-child relationship.
While Gongsun Hui was chatting, the fifth sister Wang Luojing had been sitting obediently, blinking her eyes and not daring to say anything even though she sounded bored.
"Luo Jing, fourth brother brought you a gift, do you like it?" Wang Shouzhe took out a package and handed it over.
Wang Luojing opened it and saw that it was a honeycomb. She immediately covered her mouth in surprise and whimpered, "Here, this honeycomb is like a ball as a whole, with a hexagonal mouth and a slightly jade-like color. Could it be the legendary one?" Amethyst Spirit Bee Hive? Thank you Fourth Brother, it’s great.”
Wait, what the hell is the Amethyst Spirit Bee?
Wang Shouzhe looked slightly startled: "Luo Jing, you are not good at studying. This is clearly a tiger-headed bee hive."
Wang Luojing was stunned for a moment, biting her jade finger and said: "I understand, fourth brother, you are here to test me again. According to the Insect Scripture, the Tiger-headed Spirit Bee and the Amethyst Spirit Bee looked more alike when they were in the first-order body. They were tiny. The difference is that the Amethyst Spirit Bee's body is more slender. However, their hives are quite different. The Tiger-headed Spirit Bee's hives are usually flatter and the mouth of the nest is slightly rough. The Amethyst Spirit Bee's hives are usually round and the body is crystal jade. Transformation. This is a nest of amethyst spirit bees that are still at the first-order body level, but are only slightly transformed into jade. If they are promoted to the second-order body, the honeycomb will be more than ten times larger than this, and the entire body will gradually turn into amethyst jade. shape."
While speaking, Wang Luojing carefully poured out a few more bee pupae, and immediately her little face was full of distress: "The people who picked the beehives are really stupid, so many pupae and larvae are dead, woo hoo~ This is really..." Amethyst Spirit Bee, there are only a few dozen bee pupae left alive, what a pity!”
"Is it really the Amethyst Spirit Bee?" Wang Shouzhe's expression also became a little weird, "Am I missing something?" He was formerly the young clan leader, so he naturally had to learn a lot of knowledge. Among the spirit bees, the Tiger-headed Spirit Bee Generally speaking, it is relatively common and he is quite familiar with it.
However, we don’t know much about the Amethyst Spirit Bee. We only know that it is a rare species that can grow to the second level of Spirit Bee.
Gongsun Hui on the side also looked at him sideways when he heard this. He covered his mouth and said, "Zhe'er, you couldn't really buy this as a Steller Bee hive, right? How much gold did it cost?"
"I was just casually walking around the market and discovered this beehive. When I thought that my fifth sister had the potential to be a spiritual insect master, I bought it for her to play with..." Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "The price is only ten gold, look. It seems that both the casual cultivator and I were blinded, haha~"
"It's more than just punching your eyes, you are blind." Gongsun Hui also laughed and joked, "The amethyst spirit bees among the second-level spirit bees, once they are truly mature, the amethyst spirit honey they produce will have the ability to strengthen the foundation and cultivate the energy. It has the effect of beautifying and beautifying, and is the main raw material in many second-level elixirs. If [Amethyst Queen Honey] can be produced, it will be a standard third-level elixir, and it is the main ingredient of the famous third-level elixir [Qi Ling Dan] One of the spiritual materials.”
"Hiss~" Wang Shouzhe took a breath of air, "Qiling Pill, isn't that the legendary elixir that can improve Xuanwu qualifications?"
