Chapter 234: Cao Ze's Proposal
Because he had never seen cotton in Datang before, Cao Ze thought that this Datang did not have this thing.
When he first built a textile factory, Cao Ze still regretted it.
The cost of silk is too high, and ordinary people can't afford it.
Linen or something is cheap, but the warmth of that thing is really poor.
If only there was cotton......
As a result, I imagined that I met it here!
"Where did you get this?" Cao Ze immediately grabbed Yu'er's shoulders and asked excitedly.
"The maidservant girl in the house before...... I bought it from Dongshi, ......" Yu'er was obviously frightened, and replied stumblingly: "National teacher, you hurt me......"
"I'm sorry......" Cao Ze hurriedly let go of Yu'er and continued: "Quick, go and find that maid!" ”
Yu'er didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to find someone.
Li Xiuning, who came out after changing her clothes, happened to see the scene of Yu'er running out.
"What's wrong?" Li Xiuning took a few steps forward and asked casually.
"A good thing, a great thing!" Cao Ze rubbed his hands happily: "I didn't expect there to be such a big surprise!" ”
It was rare for Cao Ze to be so excited, and Li Xiuning realized that something really big had happened.
Soon, the maid was brought over by Yu'er.
"I've seen His Royal Highness, I've seen the national teacher......" The maid Xiaohuan saluted weakly.
"Do you remember the last time you bought this?" Cao Ze pointed to the cotton and asked, "Is there any goods in the boss's hands now?" Forget it, you better take me there! ”
In this way, the group hurriedly came to the East Market.
After arriving, I asked the boss, and Cao Zequan understood!
This boss is a businessman from Gao Changguo, and his main business in Datang is other businesses.
The white stacks, that is, cotton, were brought by him when he came.
Because this thing is a rare thing in the Tang Dynasty, he simply sold it as an ornamental flower.
Not to mention, those aristocratic lords see that this flower is very good-looking, and there are really many people who buy it.
The one sold to Xiaohuan is the last one.
"If the national teacher wants, you can give the number." The boss recognized Cao Ze and immediately said enthusiastically: "Go back and bring you a batch back!" ”
Although he had also seen Cao Ze before, he just looked at it from afar, and he had no chance to talk at all.
There are too many white stacks in Gaochang Kingdom, and they can be seen everywhere in the mountains!
If you can use these useless things to get in touch with the Datang National Teacher, then you will be mixed up in Datang in the future!
Even if you're not so lucky to have a good relationship, it's not a bad thing to be familiar!
"Oh, nothing, I'm just asking." Cao Ze replied casually, taking Li Xiuning and they were leaving.
"National teacher, don't be busy." The boss hurriedly said: "Look at the silk here, just pick a few and go back." ”
It's a pity that Cao Ze didn't give him this almost opportunity, and left with Li Xiuning.
Cao Fu.
After entering the house and sitting down, Li Xiuning and Yu'er looked at Cao Ze with curiosity on their faces.
can make Cao Ze so attentive, it seems that this white stack is far from being as simple as a flower!
"This thing is called cotton in my opinion, and it is a good thing to protect against the cold." Cao Ze explained: "After the cotton is picked and processed, it can be made into cotton clothes and quilts, etc., and when you wear it on your body, it is called a warmth!" If the people of Datang can wear immunity, there will basically be no freezing death in the winter! ”
As soon as Cao Ze said this, the two of them immediately understood!
Although it wasn't what they saw with their own eyes, since Cao Ze said it himself, it definitely couldn't be wrong!
Then this thing is amazing!
"Yu'er, you go to the palace." Cao Ze immediately ordered: "Call Lao Li and say that I have something important to discuss with him." ”
Half an hour later, Li Shimin hurriedly came to Cao's mansion.
On the way, Yu'er had already told him about cotton, and Li Shimin was naturally extremely excited.
There was no excessive politeness, and after sitting down, Cao Ze went straight to the point.
"Presumably Yu'er has already told you, right?" Cao Ze asked, "What do you think of this?" ”
"Nature is superb!" Li Shimin said excitedly: "Just as the national teacher said, with this cotton, there will be no more people in my Tang Dynasty who will freeze to death in the future!" ”
It will take some time for the ondol and coal stove to become fully popularized.
Besides, even if these two things are completely popularized, people can't help but go out in winter, right?
The linen clothes are really not very warm.
If people can wear this cotton clothes when they go out in the future, they will never have to be cold again!
"Then, according to the opinion of the national teacher, at what price should we buy this cotton?" Li Shimin asked tentatively.
Li Shimin knew that Cao Ze was the one who refused to suffer on the issue of money, and this purchase price must be discussed with Cao Ze well.
"Acquisition?" Cao Ze looked at Li Shimin with disdain: "When did I say that I was going to buy it?" ”
Li Shimin: ???
If you don't give money, can people still send it for nothing?
"I said Lao Li, are you stupid to be the emperor?"
As soon as Cao Ze's words came out, Li Xiuning and Yu'er hurriedly lowered their heads.
It's not that I'm afraid of seeing something I shouldn't see and causing trouble to myself, after all, Cao Zexiong and Li Shimin are not once or twice, and they are slowly getting used to it.
is mainly afraid of being seen by Li Shimin snickering......
Today, there is only Cao Ze who dares to do this to His Majesty Xiong.
Sure enough, the sky and the earth are big, and the gods are the biggest......
Li Shimin, the emperor, in front of Cao Ze, an immortal, really has no face to talk about.
What's even more afraid is that even Li Shimin himself is used to it!
Now that he is a bear like Cao Ze, he has no unhappiness or resistance in his heart!
It's like eating when you're hungry and drinking water when you're thirsty.
Unparalleled natural ......
It can only be said.
Habits are often a very scary thing......
"What do you mean by ......?" Li Shimin asked puzzled.
"There's no need to trouble Gao Changguo's people for this kind of thing." Cao Ze said as a matter of course: "When the time comes, the army will directly open Gaochang Kingdom, let's take it ourselves." ”
"This ...... Not quite right, right? Li Shimin hesitated: "Just because of this reason, I'm afraid it's not good to send troops......
In these years of war, it is necessary to pay attention to a famous division.
When the Li family raised troops, they didn't say that they wanted to rebel and become emperors, but they just said that they wanted to save the people from fire and water.
Look, what righteousness!
As for why he sat on the throne later......
Isn't that the form and atmosphere there, and then it seems inappropriate to shirk it again, isn't it?
When Luo Yi first started the army, he also played the banner of helping Li Jiancheng, the prince, rehabilitate and punish Li Shimin, the tyrant who killed his brother and imprisoned his father.
Not to mention fighting Youzhou before, after all, Youzhou was originally a Datang thing.
But now......
You can't just fight it because of the reason that Gaochang domestic cotton is made, right?
In this case, what is the difference with a robber?
Although in essence, Li Shimin doesn't mind doing some robber work, but he can't do face work......
"Who said we're going to war?" Cao Ze smiled and immediately said his thoughts.
After listening, Li Shimin and the three of them shouted in their hearts!
What's going on with this person?
How can you be shameless to such a point?!
But......
I love it!
In this case, I think we will be able to gag those people's mouths as well!
