"This cotton coat, it still looks a little too big, Xiao Lingling, and the son is wearing, it looks a little bulky, wait for me to think about it, I want to make two lighter cotton clothes."

Looking at the sons and daughters with happy faces, Rou Niang frowned slightly and said. This cotton coat is indeed very warm, but it also looks a little clumsy.

"It would be nice if it could be lighter, but it doesn't seem to work."

However, after carefully inspecting the cotton clothes on their sons, Rou Niang finally felt that she was not sure. After all, it is a bit difficult to keep warm and lightweight.

"Hehe, I think this is pretty good. Although it is a little bulky for children to wear big cotton clothes, this thing also has the advantage of not being afraid of falling. ”

Seeing the thick cotton clothes on Xiao Lingling and her son-in-law, Li Feng suddenly remembered what happened when he was a child. At that time, in the countryside, everyone wore cotton clothes in winter. The thick cotton clothes wrapped Li Feng and them like a big rice dumpling.

When Li Feng was a child, Li Feng and the others were particularly fond of fighting, and they generally came according to the village and carried out group fights. And every winter, this kind of group beating becomes more frequent. In fact, there is only one reason for this, wearing thick clothes, it doesn't hurt to hit the body.

"Haha, I didn't think of it, there's a way, it's warm and light, it's simple."

Speaking of the bulky thing of cotton clothes, suddenly Li Feng had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly thought of a good idea, and then laughed and said.

"Really, tell me how to do it"

For this matter, Rou Niang must be the most concerned, just now she was still worried about this matter. Maybe. It's okay to say in other aspects, but when it comes to making clothes, she has always pursued perfection.

"Oh, the fourth uncle, tell me quickly, if you need something, I'll go get it for you immediately."

As soon as he heard that there were new good things, Li Chengqian immediately spoke. Of course, except to see what is new. He still has a little bit of a little ninety-nine in his heart. You know, this time, his emperor father didn't catch anything, and Li Feng didn't care about it. But he, Li Chengqian, was panicked in his heart.

If it's this time, it's really a good thing, and when the time comes, you can get more, so you can bring a gift to his emperor's father.

"Well, don't really say it, this matter really needs you to do. What about when you go back to Chang'an? immediately sent people to collect duck feathers in Chang'an City. Especially those restaurants or something, I think there must be a lot of them. When the time comes, let's make a batch of down jackets, which will be even warmer. It's also lighter."

If you want to be more lightweight, it is undoubtedly a down jacket. You know, in later generations, this thing has completely replaced the traditional cotton clothes.

"Duck feathers?"

"That's right. I didn't think of that. Since cotton can be made into cotton clothing, it is lighter if it is used. Wouldn't it be possible to make warmer and lighter clothes with warmer duck feathers instead of cotton? ”

Compared with Li Chengqian's incomprehension, Rou Niang's eyes immediately lit up, and she said very happily.

"Oh, Fourth Uncle, you mean, make those duck feathers into clothes like cotton. Well, good idea, really good idea. Why didn't anyone think of it before? Fourth uncle, you can rest assured, when I go back, I will immediately arrange for someone to collect duck feathers. Anyway, this thing, everyone usually throws it away, and it must be easy to put it away."

After Rou Niang's reminder, Li Chengqian immediately understood the role of this duck feather, and immediately agreed. It's very simple.

"Well, Cheng Qian, I think we can collect more. When the time comes, we can do more, and if we don't need so much at home, we can take it out and sell it to make a little money. Brother Li, do you think it's okay? ”

Hearing that Li Chengqian went to collect duck feathers, Rou Niang immediately had an idea in her mind, and ordered Li Chengqian, and then asked Li Feng's opinion. With the long time of contact, Rou Niang is now more open, and she doesn't care so much about Li Chengqian's identity as the prince.

"Then you can take as much as you want. However, it is best to do this in secret, and most importantly, not to reveal the role of this duck feather. As long as these things are done well, when the time comes, you can really make a lot of money."

Rou Niang's words made Li Feng a little surprised, in his opinion, if Cui Yingying proposed this idea, it would be normal, but Rou Niang would not care about these things on weekdays. It's even more impossible to link this matter to the sale all of a sudden, it's not her character.

However, after thinking about it carefully, I was relieved, before Li Feng arrived, Ren's Rou Niang came to rely on this craft to support her family, and it was normal to think of this kind of business.

Although the family is not short of these money, Li Feng absolutely supports Rou Niang's idea. Making money is not the goal, so that Rou Niang has something to do and a sense of accomplishment, this is the key.

Moreover, if this thing is handled well, it is really a big deal with ten thousand profits. You know, scarcity is expensive, and this down jacket is definitely a rare item in this year. Plus, that kind of good warmth. When the time comes, it is not impossible to sell it at a sky-high price.

The only pity is that this thing can no longer be done, and it can only make a huge profit once this year. After all, there is no technical content in this thing, as long as you take it apart and look at it, anyone can do it.

"Fourth aunt, don't worry, I will definitely handle this matter for you"

Regarding Rou Niang's explanation, Li Chengqian didn't feel anything wrong at all, and immediately patted his chest and assured it. Subsequently, not long after, Li Chengqian began to rush back to Chang'an City.

Chang'an City, inside the Imperial Palace, Ganlu Palace

"Good thing, really good thing, sure enough, as your fourth uncle said, this is soft and warm. It would be great if in winter, people could use this quilt in their homes. ”

At this time, Li Shimin was lying on his dragon couch, with a quilt under him, covered with a bed, back and forth, constantly feeling the comfort brought by the quilt, and then constantly nodding and admiring. At this time, Li Chengqian stood aside respectfully and did not speak.

"This quilt, there is no superfluity?"

After a long time, Li Shimin got up from the dragon couch with some reluctance, and then asked Li Chengqian. Li Chengqian said that these two quilts were for Empress Changsun.

"No, because there is too little cotton, and in addition, we have to make cotton clothes, so I can't make a few quilts. This time, the fourth uncle brought me a total of four quilts. Two of the beds were for the queen mother, and two were for Lingling. ”

Seeing the look in Li Shimin's eyes, Li Chengqian knew that he, the emperor's father, was tempted and wanted to beat the idea of this quilt. However, Li Chengqian couldn't help it, Li Feng gave him a total of four quilts. He Li Chengqian didn't have it himself.

"Oh so, then forget it, your fourth uncle is a slammer"

As soon as Li Shimin heard Li Chengqian's words, he was immediately deflated. There are four quilts in total, and one of them belongs to the eldest grandson, so he can't grab it. There is another one, which is his Li Shimin's grandchildren, and it can't be moved. As for going to Li Feng to fight the autumn wind, Li Shimin just thought about it.

Subsequently, Li Shimin carefully inspected the cotton clothes, and was full of praise for this cotton. When it comes to the harsh winter, how hard the people of the Tang Dynasty are, how can Li Shimin not know. The common people who can't afford to buy coats and jackets can only huddle at home all winter, and they can't even get out. I went to bed at night, and I had to be frozen several times a night, and then I got up and added firewood to the stove.

"Cheng Qian, when it comes to planting cotton, you must run to your fourth uncle more. This cotton is very important to Datang, and next year, it will be planted in a large area no matter what. Don't talk about anything else, just talk about this cotton clothes. With this thing, the common people don't have to be trapped at home by the winter wind and snow. When the time comes, a lot of things will be done. If you work more, you will earn more, so that the life of the common people will be better, and the life of the court will be also better. ”

As an emperor, what Li Shimin thinks about is even more far-reaching. He knew exactly how important and beneficial the cotton thing was.

"Your fourth uncle is just too lazy, if he doesn't urge some, he won't move at all."

Thinking of planting cotton, Li Shimin immediately thought of Li Feng, and suddenly had two big heads. In Li Shimin's heart, Li Feng is a lazy donkey, he will move when he knocks, and if he doesn't knock, he won't help do things. And that's not the point, the point is that this lazy donkey is still the kind that has a very short temper. Let him, the emperor, often be helpless.

There is no way, Li Shimin can only lose this matter to Li Chengqian again. If someone else comes to deal with Li Feng, it is unreliable, and he is not at ease.

In fact, Li Shimin has always wondered in his heart. He couldn't understand why the uncle and nephew could always pee in a pot, and his own brother was still the emperor, and Li Feng often didn't buy it.

And what made him feel even more incredible was that this prince, who had always been stubborn, also only bought Li Feng's account, and was reborn in a short period of time as if he had changed as a person. Now, more and more people have begun to change their views and recognize the prince.

In this regard, whether it is as a father or as a monarch, Li Shimin is quite happy.

"Erchen knows."

For Li Shimin, Li Chengqian is still a little restrained, so his speech has always been relatively brief. As for the errand that Li Shimin explained, he didn't feel anything. Dealing with Li Feng, he Li Chengqian is still very willing.
