is about the future of others, and Kangxi is not an emperor who comes to Hulai. After pondering for a long time, he said: "This Tian Wenjing's conduct is still good, and his age is not young, so he can be a county magistrate from a foreign party." ”

Kangxi didn't directly say no, but such an obvious meaning is not difficult for anyone to understand. But Shuyun is unwilling to let go of the opportunity to get her hands, and she must not give up when she should fight for everything. But this matter is not big or small, and it is also related to the employment of people in the imperial court, and Shuyun is not good to say anything, especially in front of Fuquan. However, with a Tian Wenjing, Kangxi will not care too much, it is just a lack of an excuse. Shuyun looked at Kangxi, and then at Fuquan, who was leisurely drinking tea, and quickly summed it up in her heart, and was ready to retreat. Pretending to be lost, he tentatively probed Kangxi and said: "Well, the concubines all listen to the emperor." ”

Sure enough, seeing Shuyun pulling the corners of his mouth, Kangxi was embarrassed, picked up the teacup and put it to his mouth and pecked, and didn't speak for a long time.

Fuquan knows him best, the emperor's younger brother, a small prisoner, even if he has some talent, he can't make Kangxi embarrassed. And obviously Kangxi didn't want to refute Shuyun's face. It's just that as an emperor, he is still very self-disciplined and wants to be an emperor, Kangxi is unwilling to be criticized for a trivial matter. Fu Quanzhi said that it was time for him to speak, so he spoke out and said: "Your Majesty, although this Tian Wenjing's conditions are not bad in all aspects, but according to his character, it is really not suitable for officialdom at present, and it is a good thing to let him go to the concubine Niangniang to hone for a while, but if he is reluctant, it will not be beautiful, and the minister thinks, why not let this Tian Wenjing make his own choice?" ”

"Hmm. The second brother is right. Kangxi was waiting for this sentence. Immediately glanced at Fuquan appreciatively and nodded. looked at Shuyun again.

Shuyun knew the smoothness of Dao Fuquan, and also understood that there was room in his words. said tentatively: "Your Majesty, why don't you let the fourth child come forward to talk to Tian Wenjing?" ”

Kangxi thought that Shuyun was afraid that Tian Wenjing would not agree, and wanted to let the prince of Longdan come forward to suppress him. looked at Shuyun with a smile and said, "The fourth child is also ten years old this year, it's time for him to try to exercise, okay, so be it." ”

Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Li Dequan, who was standing aside and waiting, stepped forward again and reported softly: "Your Majesty, the servant still heard about something. It's about the Shandong man who confronted Tian Wenjing just now. ”

"Well, let's talk about it." Kangxi glanced at Li Dequan suspiciously and said.

"Hey, that person is a small landowner in Jining, the family planted a lot of cotton, last year was good, cotton harvest, this is a good thing, but I never thought that not only their land harvest, the country's cotton harvest. And the minions also heard that there were a lot of people who planted cotton last year. This has caused cotton prices to plummet. Sell it, not only will you not make much money, but you even have to accompany some and stock it up. The new cotton will become old cotton, and it may be even more worthless in the future, if it is spun and weaved. They can't digest it themselves, no. These cotton-growing families were all worried, so they sent representatives to the capital to find a way. Li Dequan finished speaking. He lowered his eyebrows and stood aside.

"Oh? The cotton harvest is a good thing. But I didn't expect that there would be such a one, and the people below didn't report it? Kangxi looked at Fuquan and asked.

"Report the good news and not the bad news, the wind and rain are smooth, and the high output also has their own merits, as for whether they can sell it or not, it has nothing to do with them, more things are better than less things, it is better to pretend not to know the way." Fuquan seemed to be used to this kind of thing, and said a little mockingly.

"Hmph, corpse vegetarian meal." Kangxi said hatefully. Then he said: "Li Dequan, you did a good job today, I will give you a credit." ”

"The slave thanked the emperor." Li Dequan replied happily.

Kangxi waved his hand, and said to Fuquan again: "But I wondered, if I don't grow good grain, why is there suddenly so many more cotton?"

Fuquan also looked puzzled by this.

Shuyun opened her mouth and said: "This matter, the concubine knows a little bit. ”

"Oh? Let's hear about it. Kangxi and Fuquan's eyes fell on Shuyun at the same time.

Shuyun smiled and said unhurriedly: "Is this the reason, first, the yield per mu of grain has increased now, although the emperor has formulated some policies to protect grain prices, but after all, there are too many things, and the demand is unbalanced, so the price will naturally fall." Second, the price of cotton has been rising in recent years, and it is more cost-effective to grow cotton than to grow grain. ”

Kangxi and Fuquan listened and nodded in unison: "That's exactly the reason." ”

"Your Majesty, we have to find a safe way to solve this matter, otherwise, these people who grow cotton will not work in vain all year round, and it will also breed a lot of incidents." Fuquan said to Kangxi with a calm face.

Kangxi also nodded solemnly, and then pondered.

At this time, Shuyun suddenly remembered something, and pondered it quietly. After a while, Shuyun picked up the teapot on the table, filled Kangxi and Fuquan's cups with tea, and looked at Kangxi again, with a look of embarrassment on his face.

The sound of running water woke up Kangxi, who was thinking, and he subconsciously looked at the sound, and immediately found Shuyun's expression, and said suspiciously: "Shuyun, what's wrong, is there anything difficult?" ”

Fuquan had already noticed that Shuyun's face was inappropriate, but he didn't want to ask anything, so he also looked over with Kangxi's question.

Shuyun opened her mouth, looked at Kangxi again and again, and didn't say anything for a long time.

"Shuyun, there are no outsiders here, if you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt you to say it." Kangxi spoke.

"Niangniang, if it's inconvenient, the minister will go down and wait first." Fuquan was about to stand up as he spoke.

As soon as Shuyun saw that the heat was almost over, she hurriedly said, "Second brother, I didn't mean that, you sit down." Then he said as if he had made up his mind: "Your Majesty, the concubine just thought of a solution, but it's just that the concubine is not very easy to intervene in such a thing." ”

"Alright. Don't ambush me here, if you have a way, don't say it quickly. Kangxi looked at Shuyun with a strange smile and said.

Fuquan also looked like he was smiling.

Shuyun said with some embarrassment: "It's not as good as before." How dare I say anything like before, anytime, anywhere. ”

"Hmph, you've grown. But all day long, I know that I wonder about these useless things, what happened in the past? And now what's going on? If you have anything to say, tell me what you need to say here. Although Kangxi looked like a reprimand, his tone was full of protection.

Fuquan didn't think anything, he grew up with Kangxi since he was a child, and he always knew Kangxi's thoughts about Shuyun.

It was Li Dequan who quietly glanced at Shuyun. secretly said in his heart~ It seems that he still underestimated the position of Niangniang in the emperor's heart. ～

Seeing this, Shuyun stopped being hypocritical, and said happily: "The concubine thinks this is really a good thing. It is just necessary to transform and remove the unfavorable factors to achieve a win-win effect. As for how to get rid of the unfavorable factors, the best way at present is to weave cotton into cotton cloth. At present, the price of cotton cloth is still OK, and cotton cloth is not better than satin, the demand of the people is very large, the price is not bad, even if the output is increased, according to the current demand, even if the price is lowered. All parties are still very profitable."

"Shuyun, you wait first, I also thought of the method you said. But if so much cotton is woven into cloth, how long will it take? Didn't Li Dequan's investigation just now also mention the problem of manpower? I don't think it's appropriate. Kangxi said with some disappointment.

"Your Majesty. Don't worry, haven't you finished saying this yet? ”

"Okay then, you can say it." Kangxi was a little unimpressed. But he looked like he was ready to listen carefully. In fact, I just want to coax Shuyun.

Shuyun understood what Kangxi meant, but she didn't care, and continued seriously: "The concubine said that weaving cotton cloth is not done manually but by a new machine. It just so happens that the concubine is studying this recently, and there have been certain results, and it will soon be transformed into a finished product, which is eight times the current textile speed according to conservative estimates. "Shuyun is talking about the most primitive Jenny spinning machine. In the previous life, even in the new century, China was still using it in the homes of farmers in some cotton-producing areas, Shuyun had seen it many times, and tried to use it, and the principle was clear, and there was also information on this aspect in the space study, so it was not difficult to make it.

"Eightfold?" Kangxi was moved.

"Yes, the looms used by the people now are horizontal, and they can only use one shuttle shuttle to weave cloth at a time, and some of them can use two, but it is very tiring. If you put the loom down and let it change from horizontal to vertical, you can spin multiple threads at the same time with one spinning wheel, so that the output will naturally increase exponentially. Shuyun explained in detail.

Kangxi, as the emperor, is also an emperor who attaches great importance to agriculture, of course, he will not know the appearance of the Ludao loom. I carefully depicted it in my mind according to what Shuyun said. Discover what really works. Immediately excited. It is important to know that in ancient China, cloth could be spent as money in many cases.

The most important thing in a country is nothing more than the national economy and people's livelihood. Let the people have enough to eat and wear warm clothes at the same time. Now the problem of eating has basically been solved, but most of the people have only one or two sets of clothes, and many families still have one or two sets of clothes, and many people still have one set of clothes, and the elder brother wears the younger brother, and the father wears the son, and many children in the peasant family run around with their bare buttocks. The whole family who celebrates the New Year can't pull a two-foot cloth. This is not only because of poverty, but because the demand is far greater than the supply, so the price will naturally remain high, even if it is ordinary cotton and linen, the average people are still reluctant to consume. But if there were such machines, and now the cotton yield has increased, then the problem of wearing warm clothes can be solved.

Kangxi glanced at Fuquan with his eyes shining, and saw that Fuquan's eyes were also full of eagerness.
