The utensils around Yang Dui are not so much a tool as a simple machine, and I saw that it was basically a door-shaped shelf, with a wooden barrel in the middle, and a board full of jagged teeth underneath, and a handrail that could be shaken next to it, which looked quite weird.

"Just now you said that this is specially made for cotton, and now it is the time for cotton picking......" Li Xiu whispered to himself at this time, when he said this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately slapped his head and said, "I know, this is a ginning machine, which is used to deseed cotton!" ”

When the cotton is just picked, the cotton seeds are in it, and if you want to spin and weave, you must remove the seeds, and then you have to use the ginning machine, Li Xiu has seen this thing in the previous life, but the ginning machines in the later generations are all machines, and there are iron shells outside, and the structure is also very complicated, which is completely different from the original ginning machine in front of him, so he didn't recognize it at the beginning.

"The horse is really powerful, I immediately recognized the function of this thing, we have just made it, and we haven't named it yet, but the name of the ginning machine is quite appropriate, and I will name it after this in the future!" Although Yang Dui had long known that Li Xiu was erudite, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression at this time.

"Hehe, when I wanted to introduce cotton, I thought of the problem of deseeding, but I didn't have time to think about it, but I didn't expect you to have made the ginning machine!" Li Xiu also spoke again at this time and praised.

"We have just built this ginning machine, I don't know if it has any effect, it just so happens that the cotton is already ready to be picked, I have asked people to pick some, come back and test it!" Yang Dui was also a little embarrassed at this time, the principle of the ginning machine is feasible, but the actual effect can still be determined.

Li Xiu was also very interested in the ginning machine, and immediately sent people to urge the cotton pickers, but after a while, he saw that some officials came back with several large bags of cotton, and Yang Dui and they were also busy immediately, and after putting the seed cotton away, someone immediately began to shake the ginning machine, and with the rolling of the wooden barrel, immediately took away a wisp of cotton, and the cottonseed was also left.

"It worked!" Yang Dui and a few craftsmen saw that the cotton seeds were taken off, and they were also very surprised at the moment, the principle of the ginning machine was thought up by him and several craftsmen, and now he was very excited to see that his idea was confirmed.

Li Xiu was also very happy at this time, but after he carefully observed the ginning machine, he suddenly frowned, and then said: "The principle of this ginning machine is feasible, but some places still need to be improved, you see that its efficiency is too low, so much cotton has not been deseeded until now." ”

"The horse is right, this ginning machine does have a lot of room for improvement, and it still needs the help of the horse in this matter!" Yang Dui also nodded when he heard Li Xiu's words, and then asked Li Xiu for help, when it comes to making weapons, there is indeed no one in Datang who can be on the right side of Li Xiu.

"Haha, I just happen to have nothing to do, let's improve this ginning machine together, and there are also textile tools, which used to be made of hemp or silk as textile materials, but now if you change to cotton, some tools also need to be improved, and strive for us to weave some cotton cloth this year, show it to Your Majesty, we can produce cotton cloth by ourselves in the future, and we don't have to buy those rough Gaochang cotton cloth at a high price!" Li Xiu also laughed at this time.

For the next period of time, Li Xiu has been soaking in the yamen of the Ministry of Agriculture, and Yang Dui and them studied and improved ginning machines and looms, although the cotton harvested is not much, but it is enough for them to experiment, but on this morning, when Li Xiu just wanted to go to the Ministry of Agriculture, someone suddenly came to visit.

"Why are you here?" Li Xiu saw the two people who walked into the living room, and he couldn't help frowning at the moment, only to see that the two people who came in, a man and a woman, were Misia and Alda, although they were Li Xiu's old acquaintances, but Li Xiu knew some news, so he didn't want to see them much now.

"His Royal Highness the Duke of Yanguo, I don't know if you already know that Bahra has been rewarded by the Tang Emperor and is about to leave for Persia?" Misia looked very angry at this time, and as soon as she came in, she asked Li Xiu loudly.

"I know what, I don't know what, I said a long time ago, everything is chosen by His Majesty!" Li Xiu's face sank at this time, and he asked rhetorically.

Li Shimin has made a choice and decided to hand over the materials supported by the Tang Dynasty to Bahra, and there is also a letter from him that he is going to send to the Byzantine emperor for peace, after all, compared to these Persian nobles in Misia, the real power generals behind Bahra are more worthy of wooing, of course, Bahra himself shows much more talent than this Misia.

"But ......" Misia originally wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Alda next to her, and signaled her not to speak again, so as not to really anger Li Xiu, and then saw that only then did she step forward and said, "Yan Guogong, we came here today to confirm with His Royal Highness Guogong, is there any room for redemption in this matter?" ”

Compared with Misia's willfulness, Alda was very calm, and Li Xiu got along well with him at the beginning, at this time, seeing his pleading expression, Li Xiu's face couldn't help but soften, and after thinking for a while, he finally spoke: "Alda, since you asked so, then I will tell the truth, since His Majesty the Emperor has made a decision, there is no possibility of change, so I think you should go with the general trend!" ”

As soon as Li Xiu's words came out, Alda's face immediately turned pale, and the Misia behind him trembled, and his big blue eyes were overflowing with tears.

"Thank you, Your Highness, we understand!" Although Alda was desperate in his heart, he had not forgotten to thank Li Xiu at this time, and after saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave with the dejected Misia, after all, there was no point in them staying here.

"Wait a minute!" At this moment, I saw that Misia suddenly broke free from despair, and then strode in front of Li Xiu, and with a bend of her legs, she knelt down for Li Xiu and said, "Your Royal Highness, I heard that you are a famous wise man in the Tang Dynasty, can you please tell us what we should do next?" ”
