The brothers around him were all shocked when they heard this. Some of them had met Liu Bei when they ordered the troops, but they really didn't know each other after a long time. Now, when Li Jun pointed out, his vague impression instantly met and no longer hesitated.

"When growing watermelons, although I don't understand why it makes money by growing watermelons, I still have to listen to the way of the God of Wealth." After a group of people realized who they had met before, they immediately gave up their thoughts. Yes, God of Wealth is giving the way!

"Tao Li, you really know the Taiwei. And before you poured food for the Taiwei, the Taiwei actually ate it directly. It can be seen that he is very trustworthy." The old brother next to him immediately spoke. They used to think that Li Jun was bragging.

"Of course, I was also a well-known man at the time. If I hadn't met the beast of the first auxiliary, the beast of his uncle would have been too cruel." Li Jun immediately blew away, and his legs were interrupted by the soldiers of the first auxiliary.

It was originally possible to take over, but it took a long time to delay. After the time, the military doctor's skills were not in place, which led to Li Jun's lameness. Although he was still very strong after hitting his prosthetic, he was still discharged from the army. After all, the competition for the elite cavalry under Li Jue's command is too fierce.

Then before the blowing started, the brothers around him began to tease him, and then a group of people began to reveal their true feelings, and soon they became a clamor.

"You actually asked them to grow watermelons in Liangzhou. This is not a big fortune. There are a lot of fruits grown there, but due to transportation, dried fruits such as raisins are the mainstream. I remember that your workshop in Liangzhou mainly makes raisins, wine, etc." Liu Bei recalled and said.

The most important things like raisins, dried wolfberry, etc. in the entire Han Dynasty basically come from western Liangzhou and Xinzhou, and the output is very sufficient.

Even Chen Xi’s main workshops built in Liangzhou and Xinzhou, except for cotton, raisins, wine, wolfberry, pepper, red dates, beef and mutton, the others are basically small-scale self-produced and sold. Such as crispy pears, apples, white apricots, and cantaloupe, they are all produced and sold locally and cannot be delivered locally.

"Actually there are many more. I have built a lot of workshops over there." Chen Xi said expressionlessly, "But one thing is very good. Dried fruit is indeed the mainstream."

Dried wolfberry is a kind of dried fruit these days. Someone even ate it as a red raisin for a long time, but he didn't think there was any problem.

"Then you ask that guy to plant watermelons, isn't that cheating?" Liu Bei said angrily.

"That's the past, it's different from this year. Xianhe will definitely lay the logistics channels of the main road this year. As long as there is no error in calculations, the efficiency of logistics transfer is enough to support the delivery of watermelon from Jincheng to Chang'an." Chen Xi said calmly.

From Jincheng to Chang'an, if you really want to say the distance is far, it is actually not very far. The real distance is about 500 kilometers. Of course, it was impossible to transport it before. Even if it was transported, the cost would explode, but now it is different.

For things like logistics, if you give a small piece and a large piece, the cost is actually the same when the upper limit is not broken in a single transportation, so the logistics operation process has a very high demand for mathematical statistics.

Simply put, the jurisdiction covered by a certain logistics park can reserve materials that will be loaded with when the next batch of transportation teams arrive, which is the best situation, because at this time, the shipping volume is the largest and the cost per unit weight is the lowest.

Also, the location of the logistics park is arranged, and the area covered just can support the operation of the logistics park. Even if you don’t make money, as long as you don’t lose money, you will make money for this operation.

Therefore, it is very important to develop a logistics park. This logistics park must have sufficient material distribution, that is, the scale sent here and the scale sent from here can be carried just in full, which is the best result. Of course, this kind of thing is unrealistic, and distribution needs to be comprehensively considered, because logistics generally calculates freight rates based on unit weight.

Of course, it would not be transported if these nodes were not opened before. Now Jian Yong wants to open the nodes. So even if it is to reduce losses, the local area will start to produce large-scale materials that can be transported and exported, it is actually a good thing.

"That is to say, after Xianhe opens up the logistics channels in the Western Regions and is laid out, the local watermelons can actually be shipped out?" Liu Bei said in amazement.

"Yes, not only watermelons, but all kinds of fruits can be transported, and the cost is very low, because there is no need for etching technology and no need to build a large etching insulation warehouse. Jincheng is only a thousand miles away from Chang'an. As long as the watermelon is not opened, the shelf life is more than ten days. Xianhe is intercity logistics. If you change people and horses, you will transport..." Chen Xi's expression was very calm.

Not to mention changing people and horses, after getting it done, it will definitely be a starry night. According to the garbage horse, you can walk twenty miles per hour and take three shifts in the middle, and you can run four or five hundred miles a day. As for the workers' wages, the grooms are about a thousand dollars a month these days, and they are spread over each watermelon on average, and the freight rate may be only two or three cents.

The watermelon from Jincheng ran to Chang'an, the capital of the Han Dynasty. A complete watermelon only increased by two or three cents. It was not said that it was scarce, but it was profitable at affordable sales.

More importantly, it also solves the work problems of some people. The advantage of intercity logistics is that many employees can go home every other day, which is acceptable for most people who are unwilling to leave their hometowns.

To be honest, if you can't accept this, then even if Chen Xi created local township enterprises, he might not be able to solve any problems.

Of course, this kind of thing must be very large, and it can only start with more than 100,000 acres. Otherwise, the logistics freight rate will not be balanced. So no matter whether Li Jun is high or not, Chen Xi will definitely set up a farm there next year to build more than 100,000 acres. After all, even after the cookies are domesticated, the yield of watermelons is not high, and the damage to ground abilities is quite terrible.

But it doesn’t matter. The Han Dynasty may be short of other things now. There is no shortage of watermelons at all. Hundreds of thousands of acres of land can be planted in rotation.

After listening to Chen Xi's introduction, Liu Bei took a breath of cold air. Is this outrageous? Is it really so efficient? He can send watermelon from Jincheng directly from Jincheng to Chang'an in two to three days. Doesn't this mean that the troops can be sent from Chang'an to Jincheng?

Of course, why the Battle of Jincheng was difficult? To put it bluntly, isn’t it because the Han Dynasty’s military deployment ability has a problem? With such crazy delivery efficiency, Liu Bei thought about the problem of blowing the rebels’ heads. Don’t look at the garbage in the Ling Emperor’s dynasty, but the opponents who were close to Ling Emperor in the same era are likely to be unable to defeat the generals under Ling Emperor.
