Chapter 163: The Wool Winter Coat Industry
"Your Highness! Don't worry, I'll be fine...... Drip...... Hiccup"
Murong Cheng was really half-drunk and kept forcing himself to be sober.
Everything else can be messed around, but your identity must not be exposed.
This is Xiaoyao Mansion, the residence of the six princes of the Great Zhou Empire.
Once the identity is revealed, it is dead.
Fortunately, he staggered out of the Escape Mansion, mounted his mount, and was taken back by his men.
"My lord! Murong left with the scriptures! ”
Gu Yangyang came back to report.
Ye Qing changed his drunken state and waved his hand to let him go down.
Everyone present also quickly returned to normal, only Guo Jia was really half-drunk and a little high.
"Fengxiao, if you are greedy like this, I will have to let people restrict you from drinking in the future." Ye Qing had a headache when he saw Guo Jia, whose head was going to be biased, except for Li Bai, an alcoholic in the house, Guo Jia was the most greedy.
couldn't help but say coldly:
"Or, next time you're drunk, I'll pick you off, take care of the relationship, and send you to the palace to get a job!"
When the words fell, Guo Jia's eyelids jumped, his eyes widened, his body was all the same, and he was completely drunk.
"Lord, you won't ...... Come on for real! ”
Guo Jia asked weakly.
The lord is a ruthless man, but he is not so ruthless!
Picked below, what is the meaning of life.
Ye Qing still said with a cold face: "What do you say!" ”
"Ahem! The lord can rest assured, Jia is not drunk and can do things. Guo Jia immediately got serious, cheered up and asked:
"Where did we just go?"
"Hahahaha, it's not okay for you to be filial piety! I still like your naughty look, or take it off! ”
"Feng Xiao also said that you are not guilty, we have no agenda, you deceived the lord, you should pick ......"
Everyone laughed and wanted to tease Guo Jia, Ye Qing said in a straight voice: "Okay, let's get down to business, Murong Cheng should be moved, and then he will help us open up the grassland market, and then we will not only create a number of industries in Nancheng County to solve the problem of people's livelihood, but also persuade the imperial court to implement mutual markets, open borders, and promote trade." ”
"Lord, Jia has a thing unknown, what are we using this wool for? Is this beef cow really just for eating? Guo Jia went straight to the heart of the matter.
Others are also confused.
Beef cattle are easy to say, at least they can be eaten.
You can sell and process in restaurants to earn money.
This wool is useless, and it is a waste of money to buy it!
However, Ye Qing has never done meaningless things.
Every seemingly inconsequential thing or thing can make a huge difference in his hands.
For example, lime, such as defective products from burned sand, and so on.
Ye Qing glanced at everyone one by one, and explained with a smile:
"Wool and beef cattle are treasures, and you can't imagine what they do."
"First of all, this wool can be used to weave winter clothes against the cold, not only light weight, but also very warm, if all the soldiers of my Great Zhou wear them in the future, then they can continue to fight in winter, and they can go deeper into the north, and they can hit the hinterland of the Turks!" Ye Qing Kankan explained.
The crowd was stunned!
This wool can be used to make clothes.
And keep warm from the cold.
Really fake.
You must know that every winter, because of the lack of winter clothes, the soldiers of the Great Zhou can only huddle in the city of Sebourg.
When you go out to fight, don't think about it, I'm afraid that if you can't go far, you'll be frozen and destroyed.
If you want to fight deep into the Turkic hinterland in winter, it is even more impossible to pursue or something.
Because logistics can't keep up at all, in the vast prairie, this alone will kill the soldiers of the Great Zhou.
Therefore, if the Great Zhou Dynasty fights against the Turks, it can only be active in the months after the beginning of autumn, because of this point, first, there is surplus grain and laborers after the autumn harvest is completed.
In the other three seasons, it was either because it was too cold to fight, or because they had to be busy with farming to survive.
Naturally, it is impossible to sustain the war.
If it is really like what Ye Qing said, this wool can solve the problem of keeping out the cold, then the Great Zhou can fight in winter, and then it is difficult to say whether the Turks will go south to plunder the Great Zhou, or whether the Great Zhou will sneak attack the Turks and go deep into the hinterland of the grassland.
"Lord, if this matter is true, then God bless my Great Zhou, and the rise of my Great Zhou is unstoppable!" Zhang Yi said excitedly.
Shang Ying said: "I just don't know how this wool can be turned into winter clothes, the process is complicated, and the processing cost is geometric?" Can I use the army and ordinary people of Da Zhou! ”
The cost of acquiring wool is almost zero.
As long as they have a little money, the Turks are eager to get it all.
After all, this thing is useless waste for them, and it pollutes the pasture.
"The process shouldn't be complicated, but we don't have this technology yet, and someone needs to experiment with it." Ye Qingdao:
"I know the general steps, the first is cleaning, the second is sorting and selection, then the silk is drawn into threads, and finally the dyeing and weaving."
It doesn't sound complicated.
It's like linen and silk!
Ye Qing then said: "There is still a long time until the early summer of next year, we can find someone to slowly experiment, I believe that by then, we should be able to study the technology and operation process of wool clothing." ”
"What the lord said is true!"
Everyone chimed in.
There is still half a year to go, and it should be able to be done.
Everyone is looking forward to it.
"This wool garment making is a big industry, and every step involved in it requires a lot of manpower, so it can provide a lot of employment and money-making opportunities for the people of our Nancheng County, and then our Nancheng County can be stable and prosperous." Ye Qing explained very naturally:
"And these industrial chains, what is needed are some female workers, so that it will not delay the harvest of farmland, affect the development of agriculture, and can give half more labor for the development of the county.
Silk!
There is also a role in this regard.
Emancipate women workers, so that women workers can also contribute to the country and provide a generating force for the development of production.
Tiny Nancheng County is equal to a quarter more than a quarter of the population.
Under the rule of prosperity, tax revenue is naturally on a higher level.
The lord is really a genius design.
The layout is huge, I can't wait.
"Don't worry, my lord, after the meeting is over, I will go to formulate some new regulations, and ask the Ministry of Punishment to ask the empire to adopt and use them." Jurisprudence is Shang Ying's forte.
As long as it is in line with the laws of the development of the empire, it should be carried out and implemented without leaving any room for error.
After everyone digested this information, Ye Qing said again: "As for the matter of beef cattle, it is actually a misunderstanding since ancient times, who said that cattle in the grassland can only be used for food, not for farming, this is a big fallacy."
I want to buy a large number of Turkic beef cattle, not for food, but for farming for millions of my people. ”
