Chapter 130: Keeping the Cold

After reading the book, the address of [Wanbenshen Station]: Avoid the pain of chasing books!

The weather is getting colder, the wind is rising, and getting up every morning is a difficult process. Li Dongsheng found that the people of the Tang Dynasty really had no good way to keep out the cold.

People with relatively wealthy families can use silk cotton to make robes to keep out the cold, the military generals and officials and slaves at the border have winter clothes issued by the imperial court, and the really poor people who can't afford to buy cotton robes also have their own winter methods, the Tang Dynasty papermaking technology is developed, the price of paper is relatively low, and the paper after writing and using it is cheaper, and many poor families will collect waste paper and make paper clothes and paper to keep out the cold.

You read that right, the poor people of the Tang Dynasty used paper to protect themselves from the cold. Although the paper quilt looks thin, but the thermal conductivity of the paper itself is relatively poor, and a thick layer can still play a role in keeping warm, the late Tang Dynasty literati Xu Kun once wrote a paper quilt poem, in which the poem said that the best paper quilt is "draped in the strong wind and warm wine, and the cold wind is warm in the cotton", which shows the effect of the paper quilt in the cold and windproof.

High-ranking officials like Li Jing will receive winter clothes from the emperor every winter, and the anthologies of Chen Ziang, Dugu Ji, Quan Deyu, Ling Huchu, and Li Shangyin all include the thank you table and thank you after receiving the imperial winter clothes. In fact, these high-ranking officials could have purchased good winter clothes with their own money, and the emperor's act of giving clothes was more of a show of favor. The royal family and the eunuchs can usually wear fur clothes made of animal fur in winter, and the more luxurious ones are fox fur, mink fur, leopard fur, rabbit fur, etc., and the ordinary scholars and the rich among the common people wear sheep fur and dog fur.

Li Cheng and Li Lin also asked people to send Li Dongsheng a fox fur coat, and there were even two Li De Award brothers. They were very happy. Because this fox fur is really expensive, Li Jing and Zhang Chuchen were also specially rewarded by Li Shimin. In the past, I saw that other gentlemen were wearing fox furs to swagger through the market, and the two of them were also very popular, but now that they have them, they are naturally very happy.

The room was kept warm, and the stove was burned early in the Shangshu Mansion, Li Dongsheng miraculously found that the people of the Tang Dynasty knew that charcoal burning was poisonous, and there was a pipe sticking out of the window.

Cheng Chumo and Yu Chi Baolin are also familiar with Li Dongsheng now, they are both thick-faced people, the two of them mix in Li Dongsheng's yard every day, and they have to drink every day, which makes Li Dongsheng very annoyed, and finally can't stand it anymore this day. He asked, "You two are messing around with me every day, don't you have anything else to do?" ”

Cheng Chumo smiled: "No, now the old men are in good health, don't arrange things for us to do." ”

Yu Chi Baolin also sighed: "That's it, if you go to the academy, you will be punished, and the family will not arrange things for us." ”

Li Dongsheng said: "You can't just mess around like this. ”

"My old man said you were smart, let me play with you." Cheng Chumo took a sip of wine and said.

Li Dongsheng looked at Yu Chi Baolin, and Yu Chi replied with an affirmative look: "That's what my family said." ”

It seems that it is relying on himself, what should I do? It's annoying to look at it every day. Li Dongsheng also took a sip of wine in distress, Wei Chi exchanged glances with Cheng Chumo, and Cheng Chumo smiled: "It's boring to be here with you every day, tomorrow they will go hunting, let's go play together." ”

Hunt? This can be had, the left leads the yellow, the right Qingcang, and the thousand horses roll Pinggang. I had heard of the flying eagle fighting dogs before, but I hadn't seen it after coming to Chang'an for so long. It's just like drinking at home or going to the Qinglou every day, or there are too few entertainment items.

"Who else?"

"Who else can there be, it's just those normal people, Chang'an City is so big, those people can play with us."

"I haven't hunted, what's the point?"

"What's important, it's that there are many people who get together to play. You go to play, you can compose poems, hunting, it's up to us. Ha ha! Cheng Chumo patted Li Dongsheng's shoulder hard, and laughed with Wei Chi.

After knowing that he was going to hunt tomorrow, Li Dongsheng began to worry. Hunting must be an outdoor activity, but in such a cold weather, the horse's face and hands are exposed, and the wind blows like a knife when the horse runs. ”

"Young master, what's the matter?" Xiao Ju came with the voice, her big eyes sparkling.

"Go find a sheepskin in the storeroom, young master, I want to make something."

"Oh." Xiao Ju turned around and left, walked to the door of the room and said, "Young master, should the sheepskin be haired or not?" ”

"Huh? Both hairy and hairless. Bring me back another piece of cloth, and ask for a cyan one. ”

It didn't take long for the little maid to return to the room with her things. Li Dongsheng put the sheepskin on the table, and then put his hand on the sheepskin, trying to find a pen to draw a sample, and suddenly found that there was no hard pen. There was no way, so the little maid went to get a charcoal again, drew the look, asked Xiaoju to cut it out, and then sewed it together, and a simple version of the sheepskin gloves was made.

"Young master, what's the use of this?" The little maid looked at Li Dongsheng, who put the gloves on his hands, and asked.

"Hehe, this is a good thing, called gloves, take it on your hand in winter and go out without fear of cold, and it can also prevent your hand from being scratched, you see that this hand is still separated, even if you do not delay anything."

"Oh... The young master is so smart" Xiao Ju looked at Li Dongsheng with admiration, but immediately his eyes dimmed: "The young master goes out to play, and he can't take me there." ”

"Hey, what's so fun in winter, when it's spring, the young master will take you out to play and go out to see the flowers." Li Dongsheng rubbed the little girl's hair: "Help me make another thing." ”

Li Dongsheng looked at the knife in Xue Li's hand, the handle was wrapped in dark cloth, the blade did not have a trace of curvature, the thickness of the back of the knife was nearly one centimeter, and the thickness of the blade near the handle was the thickest, and then it was evenly reduced to the tip of the knife. Then the tip of the knife is arc-shaped, that is, there is no gauntlet between the handle and the blade, which looks very lethal.

"Have you ever killed anyone with this knife?" Li Dongsheng is very curious.

"I killed it when I was in Youzhou before, and I am also a government soldier." Xue Li was very proud.

Li Dongsheng said "Ao", this is a famous general of the Tang Dynasty later, it is not trivial to kill a person, I heard that he became famous when Li Shimin conquered Goryeo, and killed a general in Goryeo alone, and then he soared.

called a subordinate and asked him to find a knife in the storeroom, but he wouldn't use it himself anyway. He also borrowed a bow and arrow from a guard. Fortunately, it is now the Tang Dynasty, and the government military system is implemented, and all weapons must be brought by themselves. It's easier to find a bow and arrow. If the Song, Ming, and Qing dynasties in the later generations, you have armor and bows and arrows at home, then you are embarrassed to go to the prison, suspected of conspiracy, what Ao Bai and He Shen are all killed on this crime.
