Chapter 744: Sudden Surrender

"I can't believe that there is such a magical thing in the world!"

Compared with his previous contempt for these strange tricks, Yang Biao's thoughts at the moment have changed greatly. If the loom could have been so far, a woman would have to feed the family at home, and a man would not have to work in the family, and the problem of strength would no longer be a problem at all. It is no wonder that Yuan Chang has the confidence to reform the military system, relying on this textile machine, it is enough to liberate a large number of young people from the field, and the old and young in the family have no worries, and the man can naturally go out to make contributions. In addition, the excellent nature of the reformed military system can definitely attract a large number of young and strong people to join the army.

Xu Shu chuckled and said: "There is no magic in the textile machine, but it can be developed when the technology is reached. Later, there will be real miraculous things, and when the time comes, Committee member Yang will come back and sigh that it is right. ”

"Haha, after listening to Committee Member Xu's words, the old man was aroused by curiosity and was bound to see it. ”

Now, for the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Liu Xie and Yang Biao no longer have any underestimation of them, Xu Shu dares to say such a thing, naturally he has the confidence, Yang Biao and they naturally want to see it.

"I'll be able to see it later, I wonder if Commissioner Yang is interested in trying this textile machine himself?"

"Heh, the old man can't do this. ”

Yang Biao rolled his eyes, thinking that Xu Shu was teasing himself. However, Xu Shu was serious and said: "Member Yang rest assured, the subtlety of this textile machine is that even people who don't understand the affairs of female workers can easily get started as long as they explain it a little. ”

So the old man gave it a try. ”

Yang Biao didn't feel that there was anything wrong with a man doing such a female worker, after all, at his age, it could be said that there were no taboos. Moreover, experimenting with the functions of the textile machine in his capacity will only make people praise his actions.

The operation of the loom is indeed simple and easy to understand, under the guidance of the embroiderer, Yang Biao also took more than two quarters of an hour, and successfully spun a good cloth, so that Liu Xie and his party were amazed.

"There are many soldiers who are not good at walking because of injuries, and now with a textile machine, even if they are at home, they can earn some money for the family and supplement the family, first, to solve the concerns of the soldiers after they are disabled, and to increase the output of fabrics, so kill two birds with one stone, isn't it wonderful!"

Yang Biao, Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi and others are all people in high positions, and they thought of the multiple roles of the textile machine in an instant, and they were amazed in their hearts.

At this time, Yuan Chang said: "Previously, I suggested that the head of state and you move the capital to Youzhou, but the head of state and you did not agree very much. First, it is because I don't want to stay away from my homeland, and secondly, because I am worried about the bitter cold land in the north, and when it comes to winter, I am afraid that it will be unbearable. However, the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a thing, and you will definitely like it. ”

Subsequently, Yuan Chang asked people to bring two boxes, and Liu Xie, Yang Biao and others were curious about what was in the boxes.

After opening one of the boxes, they saw several sewn clothes in the box, but this clothing looked more peculiar, the kaftan did not look like a kaftan, and the fur did not look like a fur, which was a type they had never seen before. Yuan Chang personally took out a few pieces of clothing and gave one to Liu Xie and Yang Biao.

After distributing the clothes, Yuan Chang said: "This clothing is also developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, with excellent cold function, although it is not yet winter, you can also try its effect." ”

It's October now, in late autumn, Chang'an, Luoyang and other places in Guanzhong are the time of high autumn and cool, and the northern land of Youzhou has a little coolness, of course, if it is after winter, it is even colder, which is unbearable. Today's era is not the same as future generations, which have caused climate changes and rising temperatures due to various reasons, but the winter of today's era is really cold. Even in the south, a large number of people will freeze to death in winter, let alone in the north, there are not a few people who freeze to death. Although it is only in late autumn, everyone has already worn two or three pieces of clothing, and in winter, the rich and noble families still have fox fur and other precious clothes to keep out the cold, and ordinary people do not have such treatment.

According to Yuan Chang's explanation, Liu Xie and the others put on their clothes, and in less than a stick of incense, they felt hot and dry, and sweat was already pouring out on their foreheads.

"This..."

Liu Xie, Yang Biao and the others were already speechless, the cold effect of this clothing was too amazing, they had only been wearing it for a while, and they were already hot, and they didn't feel the chill at all. If you have such clothes to protect you from the cold in winter, do you still need to worry about winter?

"You have a deep understanding of the effect!"

Xu Shu looked at Liu Xie and the others with a smile, and continued: "Moreover, the materials for this clothing are extremely cheap, and the people can afford it. After the autonomous public took charge of Youzhou, he spread this thing to the people of Youzhou, and last winter, none of the people of Youzhou were frozen to death. ”

"Dare to ask Commissioner Xu, I don't know what the name of this clothing is, and what kind of material is it made of?"

Xu Shu opened another box, pointed to the box full of white flowers and fluffy things, and said, "This is the main material for this clothing!"

Liu Xie, Yang Biao and the others looked at each other curiously, Liu Xie looked at it for a moment, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Isn't this thing a white stacked flower from the Western Regions?"

Liu Xie is also from the emperor, there are countless strange flowers and plants in the palace, and the white flowers and fluffy things in front of him are not exactly the same as the white stacked flowers planted in the palace garden after they bloom. And Yang Biao and others have naturally seen this thing, and after hearing Liu Xie's words, they took a closer look and found that it was the white stack flower. After understanding the true situation of this object, Liu Xie, Yang Biao and others were even more surprised, the white stacked flower had been lying in the palace garden for I don't know how many years, but it was only regarded as a strange ornamental thing, and in Yuan Chang's hands, it turned into such a good thing to keep out the cold. It is no wonder that Yuan Chang can have today's achievements, and this alone can see that he is different.

"The FΓΌhrer is right, this thing is the white stack. However, because of its softness, the lord called it cotton, and the clothes made of it were called cotton clothes. ”

"Cotton cotton clothes, catchy, Chairman Yuan is so literate!"

This time, it was not Yang Biao who jumped out to praise, but Zhao Wen. As the oldest, Zhao Wen is even more unbearable in the bitter cold, and now with this cotton clothes, he is no longer afraid of the winter in the north. However, Zhao Wen's praise made everyone look weird. Yang Biao acted like this before, after all, Yang Biao's personality is like this, so it doesn't make people feel flattering. However, Zhao Wen has always been known for his uprightness and integrity, and it is really surprising that he would say such sycophants.

Of course, Zhao Wen doesn't care what others think of him.

Previously, when he was in the library, Zhao Wen had already been shocked. And after arriving at the Chinese Academy of Sciences, he was shocked one after another, and he could see that Yuan Changjue was very comparable. With such a stunning talent and a big mind, the future achievements are bound to be limitless. With such thick thighs, how could he not be able to hug him well? No more than Hongnong Yang, the fourth and third dukes, he was highly respected and famous, so Yang Biao could act casually. And his Zhao family is just a medium-sized family, and if he wants to grow, he must work thousands of times harder. Previously, he had always shown his loyalty to the Han family, just to create opportunities for the family. He understands that the Han family is in decline and has little hope for revival, but if he hangs on it with his heart and works hard for the Han family, he will definitely be able to get a good reputation, and the children of the family will have the opportunity to be valued. Now, he sees the value of Yuan Chang, naturally there is no need to hang on the big ship that will collapse at any time in the Han Dynasty, good birds choose trees to perch, it is the same for everyone, whether they will make changes, but it depends on whether the temptation is big enough.

Obviously, Yuan Chang's temptation is big enough that it is worth Zhao Wen to make.

First of all, there is a library with endless books, with this library, Youzhou will definitely be able to cultivate an endless stream of talents, to ensure the long-term peace and stability of Youzhou; secondly, there are weapons and armor like divine weapons, plus a steady stream of troops, Youzhou's combat power will naturally not have the slightest problem. With these two points alone, with both the military and the government ensuring that everything is safe, Yuan Chang's great cause is just around the corner. Moreover, there are still many things that have not been seen, which shows the great value of Youzhou's investment. Zhao Wen naturally couldn't express his attitude after seeing everything, it was better to express his attitude before Yuan Chang had fully demonstrated his strength, but he would be more valued. This approach is the difference between giving charcoal in the snow and icing on the cake, at least, Zhao Wen feels that the strength that Yuan Chang has shown at this time is enough for him to bet his family on Yuan Chang.

"Haha, Commissioner Zhao praised it falsely!"

Yuan Chang laughed out loud and responded humbly. Most of the people present were human spirits, and they naturally understood what attitude Zhao Wen's words expressed, and of course Yuan Chang also understood. Although Zhao Wen is a little older, it is not a bad thing for Youzhou to be older and more serious, after all, the age of Youzhou is young, which is not a good thing for the country as a whole.

Although Yang Biao was close to him, he did not clearly express his intention to serve him, but Zhao Wen was the first person to express this meaning, and Yuan Chang was naturally welcome.

Yang Biao was a little stunned by Zhao Wen's abrupt choice, but everyone has their own choice, so he naturally can't blame anything. If it weren't for the fact that he had Hongnong Yang as his backing, I am afraid that he would have made a choice faster than Zhao Wen. Zhang Xi's reaction was also great, as two people with comparable family situations, their friendship on weekdays was good, but he didn't expect that in a blink of an eye, Zhao Wen broke away from Liu Xie's camp and threw himself into Yuan Chang's arms. Of course, he didn't say anything about his friend's choice, but he was thinking in his heart whether he wanted to be like this.

Compared with Yang Biao's reaction to Zhang Xi, Liu Xie and Dong Cheng's faces were ugly.

Originally, Yang Biao, Zhao Wen and Zhang Xi were the courtiers who were firmly loyal to him Liu Xie, and they were ministers he could trust. However, the reality gave him a heavy blow, and Zhao Wen expressed his attitude of surrendering to Yuan Chang in front of him. If Liu Xie hadn't seen it in private, the reaction would not have been so big. However, doing this in front of him completely ignored him, how could Liu Xie have a good face?

And Dong Cheng is even more determined to take back power from Yuan Chang so as to regain his rightful position. Yang Biao and several others were all helping, who knew that Zhao Wen actually "defected", which made him hate in his heart.

Being able to get the effect of a minister at the level of a third duke, Xu Shu is naturally happy for his father-in-law. However, looking at Liu Xie's face, in order not to be too embarrassed, he hurriedly stood up and changed the topic, saying: "In addition to cotton clothes, there are also matching cotton gloves and cotton hats. In the past, when the war started, it was avoided in winter, because the cold weather was not conducive to war, and everyone would restrain themselves. However, now that Youzhou has cotton clothing, you can take the initiative, even if you attack in winter, you don't have to worry too much. ”

"What Commissar Xu said is right, with such cotton clothes to protect against the cold, it is indeed beneficial for our side to start a war in winter. It's just that I wonder if we can sew enough cotton clothes for the soldiers?"

Yang Biao agreed, and then raised his worries.

"Don't worry about this, Commissioner Yang!"

Xu Shu appeased and said with a smile: "When the lord was still the Taishou of Bohai County, he had already increased the output of cotton. Nowadays, up and down the army, soldiers can each distribute two sets of cotton clothes to change and wash, and the output is not a problem at all. ”

The news revealed by Xu Shu seems to be a little too shocking!

Yuan Chang began to plan when he was still serving as the Taishou of Bohai County, what an astonishing ambition. Of course, it was a frightening thing for Liu Xie, but it was a happy event for Zhao Wen, after all, the more talented Yuan Chang showed, the less bad it was for him.

Seeing that Liu Xie's faces were not good, Yuan Chang said: "The time for today's visit is not short, and the head of state and you don't know if you are tired? If you are tired, you will come here today, and you will have time to visit again another day, how about it?"

"It's okay, just keep visiting!"

Liu Xie's face has returned to flatness, and he can't stop Zhao Wen from changing his court. Since this is the case, it is better to simply continue to visit, he wants to see how many people under his command can be attracted by Yuan Chang's strength, and at worst, they are all attracted by him, and he will return to the situation of being alone, anyway, it is no different from the current situation. Besides, he has been swaying from side to side in his heart, at most, he gave up everything and was at ease to be a nominal head of state, at least, in Yuan Chang's place, he still has enough freedom, and it seems that it will not be too bad.

Liu Xie said so, and others naturally would not object.
