Fine-staple cotton is native to the highlands of southern Mexico in the Americas and was only introduced to China in the 19th century. Since then, fine-staple cotton has replaced the Indian coarse staple cotton that has been planted for a long time, and has become the world's mainstream cotton species, accounting for 85% of the world's cotton production.

has always been a headache, just like Li Ming, who introduced cotton in India, but he didn't expect to get it after a battle, which can be regarded as an unexpected joy. Sure enough, the more difficult a battle is, the greater the reward, what really makes him helpless is that the evaluation of the previous battle is only 'qualified', which shows that adventure is obviously not promoted, and it will be used as a lesson next time.

The cotton yield in the first year is very low, in fact, it can adapt the fine staple cotton to the water and soil in Asia, and it is not easy to take root and germinate, but the second year will definitely be easier, and the germination rate of cottonseed will also be improved.

The weather is getting colder day by day, the sales of down jackets have also begun to become hot, duck down is being purchased everywhere, many businessmen have found duck farms, only to know that duck down has been ordered by the auditor chamber of commerce, there is a contract, Li Ming has always attached great importance to the spirit of the contract, and the guys who violate the contract are severely punished, so that no farm store dares to breach the contract.

However, it is clear that the expansion of the duck farm in the second year, or the establishment of a new duck farm, will become inevitable.

With the advent of down jackets, the Chamber of Commerce has also opened a special field for women's underwear. The outside is covered with a curtain, and what exactly is sold inside is known only to the women themselves. Many people think that this shop is mysterious and a little scared.

Then one day Peng Die walked in with Xiao Qiao, and took out a lot of big bags and small bags, talking and laughing. After seeing this scene, some bold middle-aged women walked in, and then after a short time, they hid their faces and walked out, carrying a paper bag in their arms.

So more curious people walked in, most of them looking hurried, as if they had committed a crime.

I bought something in this store, and the next day I came to the store to sweep the goods in good spirits, and I took a lot of large and small bags. Suddenly drive more people to go in and consume.

"Zibu, you're in your forties, don't you know how to control yourself?" On the third day of work, Li Ming looked at Zhang Zhao, who was a little restless, and secretly put his hand behind him from time to time to knock, and couldn't help but joke.

Yingwei reported that Zhang Zhao's two concubines were not less favored by him, and even Mrs. Zhang was stained with some rain and dew.

"Lord, that women's monopoly thing, don't say it has nothing to do with you......" Zhang Zhao raised his head, his spirit was a little sluggish, and his eyes looked at Li Ming with a little more complaint.

"Ahem, I didn't force anyone to buy it! But TOEFL, the Liuwei Dihuang Pill from the pharmacy is selling well......" Li Ming coughed lightly and said with a bit of pride.

Zhang Zhao couldn't say anything, because he also went to buy a few boxes to go back for backup. Seriously, before the day before yesterday, he really didn't know that there was still a love call. Fun underwear things, the result is indeed a bit uncontrollable. The disease of widows, the common disease of men......

What are the products of the women's only product? It's nothing more than women's underwear, and there is a lot of love among them. Fun package, all kinds of sexy design, dew but not color, color but not demon, kitsch but not vulgar, beautiful but not glamorous, Li Ming's design concept is like this.

So the first fashion designers of this era were created, and most of these designers were women.

Of course, in addition to underwear, there is also a thing called 'sanitary napkin', the main body is paper, but the water absorption is really good. If we want to evolve into a real 'sanitary napkin', we need to wait for cotton to become more popular. In any case, it is already much more convenient than the traditional menstrual belt, and it is naturally popular with women.

The by-product is the Liuwei Dihuang Pill, and Li Ming plans to develop Kidney Treasure tablets or granules if there are conditions......

"It's just immoral......" Zhang Zhao wanted to refute a few words, but he just shut up obediently halfway through. The mouth says don't want it, but the body is very honest.

"Zibu, you're wrong!" Li Ming immediately stopped doing it when he heard it, "Why is it immoral?" Did I let them wear it? Do you understand underwear, what is worn inside, except for the closest men and close-fitting maids, who can see it? Besides, I can cover that shop with a curtain, who can see what's inside?! ”

"I'm afraid that some people will say that you are here to run this kind of thing...... "Zhang Zhao admonished.

"The store is owned by the Huiguan Chamber of Commerce, and the Huiji Chamber of Commerce is not my own Chamber of Commerce. The wicked have their own evil grinding, and those who can say this are nothing more than a group of people who plan to steal business. I don't have the ability to make money, and I plan to cut off people's money, but I'm just a bunch of mad dogs! Li Ming waved his hand.

"The lord can have a plan in his heart!" Zhang Zhao also knew that it was not good to exhort excessively, so he arched his hand and continued to work. It's just that this waist is really not powerful, in fact, it is not only him who is present, but several married colleagues are almost like this.

The women of Duke Chu all went to buy it, and of course the first ones to hold stinky feet were their subordinates, and the first victims were naturally their subordinates. It can't be said to be victimized, but strictly speaking, it should be said to be 'painful and happy'...... Lumbago.

When he went down, Li Ming made an appointment with Wang Yu, who came to report on his work, and went out for a drink. Wang Yu would come back every three years to report on the situation on the front line in the past three years, and the same was true for Pang De and Peng Hu.

"How do you feel about Shouchun?" Li Ming looked at Wang Yu, there was no special meaning, just a change of topic.

"It's been more than a year since my subordinates left, and it's more prosperous here, and there are a lot more goods." Wang Yu said with a smile.

"Now that Jiangdong is becoming more and more prosperous, many old people who originally started with me have become wealthy. This is especially true of those families, there is no threat of war, their lives are getting more and more comfortable, and a few people have begun to indulge in extravagance. Brother, how about squeezing their purses with me? Li Ming looked around and asked in a low voice when he was sure that there were no outsiders.

"You come up with the idea, I'll be in charge of squeezing!" Wang Yu agreed without thinking about it, if you have money, you don't make a bastard. Especially Li Chong and Wang Xi have already ordered a baby kiss, and the two parties may become in-laws in the future.

Li Chong and Dong Bai have a good relationship, in the end, they have no guesses, childhood sweethearts, but in terms of marriage, they still respect Li Ming's arrangement, which is the result of Xun Cai's education. It's a shame to say that in education other than martial arts, Li Ming rarely cares. The main thing is that there are more and more children, and they can't manage it.

No wonder in ancient times, the eldest son was the crown prince, the eldest son has been with him the longest since he was a child, and the longer he has been influenced by himself, the higher his status in his heart will naturally be, not to mention that Li Chong is still the eldest son.

Of course, Li Ming also talked to Dong Bai, and the latter also understood, obviously Dong Ming also talked to her. According to the predetermined plan, Wang Xi is his wife and Dong Bai is his concubine. The Xun family, the Peng family, and the Yu family will also bring a concubine over as a playmate, and they will also be candidates for concubines in the future.

The Xun family represents the Central Plains family, the Peng family represents Baiyue, and the Yu family represents the old Chu relics, and Li Chong's marriage with him is inevitable. In the future, I can't say it, but in the families of Hebei, Guanzhong and Bashu, choosing a woman to marry is the way to balance.

"You see, now the Guild Auditors Association has a group of female workers who specialize in designing underwear styles. I already have a lot of experience, and next year I plan to let them try to design outerwear styles, and at the same time make some ready-to-wear such as hunting clothes, dresses and regular clothes to sell, make a brand, and take the high-end route...... Do you think it can be done? Li Ming put forward his own ideas.

When it comes to profits, what could be more profitable than the clothing industry?!
