Wang's side arranged for someone to take his mother-in-law to Zhuangzi.

The people from the Liu clan over there, who were guarding near the gate of the Ning Mansion, saw the carriage of the Ning Mansion, and immediately rushed home and told the Liu family.

The Liu family originally just thought about finding a chance to meet the Wang family and the evil mother-in-law Shouning County Lord.

She didn't believe it, with her three-inch tongue, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to shoot the sycophants of the Shouning county lord?

Unexpectedly, I actually learned the news.

Without thinking too much, he immediately called someone, prepared the carriage, and hurriedly chased the carriage of Ningfu.

It's just that Rao asked the carriage to chase it quickly, but she still didn't run into the Ning family's carriage on the road.

Thinking of the Zhuangzi that the Ning family bought, Liu thought about it and asked his subordinates to drive towards the largest Zhuangzi.

Not to mention, the blind cat met the dead mouse, and was really blinded by Liu.

"Mother, in another month, the cotton in our village will be picked.

In addition to the supply to the barracks, there will be much more this year, which can be supplied to our textile mill for weaving. ”

The weavers and carpenters sent from Nanyue Prefecture had already made the looms needed for the textile mill, and hundreds of weaver girls had also been trained.

Now just wait for this year's new cotton to come down, and it can be used for weaving.

In addition to weaving, this new cotton is used to make cotton clothes and quilts, which is the warmest.

Last year, many merchants in the south learned that the Ning family's Zhuangzi in the north of the country had cotton, and they all came to order.

It's a pity that most of last year's new cotton was supplied to the barracks, and a small part of the Ning family was not enough for their own use.

Those businessmen had no choice but to pay the deposit in advance, and agreed that some of the new cotton that would come out in the second year must be left for them.

It was precisely because these merchants paid a deposit that Ning Laosan asked the Wang family to buy several more Zhuangzi.

However, Ning Laosan still instructed Wang that all the fields in the Zhuangzi could not be used to grow cotton.

Half of it must be grown with grain and half with cotton.

In this way, the common people will not be allowed to plant cotton in a honeycomb, resulting in no food for the big guys.

On the side of the barracks, because of the textile machine provided by Ning Laosan to General Wu, and now that the foreign tribes outside the country no longer invade the border passes, the soldiers in the barracks, in addition to drilling, will plant in the military fields for the rest of the time.

Therefore, this year's military camp, for the supply of new cotton from the Ning family, it is actually not so rigid.

Ning Pengpeng is in the house these days, and as long as Ning Laosan returns to the house, he will tell his mother about the situation in Saibei.

What Wang said just now, Ning Pengpeng was not surprised, nodded and said that he understood.

However, after arriving in Zhuangzi, Ning Pengpeng did not go to rest, but instead found the head of the Zhuangzi and asked Zhuangzi in detail about cotton planting.

Then, with the head of the village, I went to the edge of the ridge where the cotton was planted and checked the growth of the cotton up close.

After listening to what Zhuang Tou said, and then looking at the cotton growing in the field with his own eyes, Ning Pengpeng already had a number in his heart.

It seems that the quality and yield of cotton grown in Nanyue Province are not as good as those in Saibei, not because of the planting techniques.

Nine times out of ten, it has to do with the region.

Although it is cold to death in the winter, it is also very hot in the summer.

There is more sunlight than elsewhere, which should be one of the reasons why the quality and yield of cotton here are much better.

If this is really the case, then the Zhuangzi on the side of Nanyue Province can plant cotton for a while, and it is better to plant some crops that are more suitable for growing in Nanyue Province.

On the other hand, on the other hand, you can buy more fields for planting cotton in large quantities.

After all, there is not much else on the side of Saibei, but there is a lot of land.

Of course, the biggest reason for the abundance of land is that there are few people here.

And because of the small number of people, it is naturally related to the location at the border pass, and the fact that those foreign tribes outside the Saiwai come to fight the grass valley from time to time.

Most of the young adults in the area have enlisted in the army.

The rest of the old, weak, sick and disabled were either killed or robbed by those alien tribes.

There are also some people who can't stand it today and don't know if they can survive until tomorrow, and would rather be a drifter than stay in their homeland.

Ning Pengpeng naturally knew that if he let those good people come to Saibei, it would definitely be impossible.

However, in ancient times, the most important thing was slaves.

Those days can't go on, selling themselves, or some slaves who are resold by the official family after their homes are raided.

And these slaves who have been resold are naturally let by the master to go, where to go, where are they still picking?

Back in Zhuangzi, just after sitting down, Ning Pengpeng was discussing with the Wang family to see if he could go to other towns and buy more slaves.

And on the side of Saibei, I bought more fields to grow grain and cotton, and I heard a report from my subordinates, saying that Mrs. Xue of Zhuangzi asked to see me.

When they heard the words of the next person to report to Mrs. Xue, Ning Pengpeng and Wang Shi were stunned at the same time, and their subconscious reaction was that it was the wife of Ning Laosan's boss.

It's just that before Wang's face showed an angry expression, Ning Pengpeng reacted, raised his eyebrows, stopped Wang's who wanted to be angry, and asked his subordinates to invite Mrs. Xue in.

"Mother, this Xue family is so calculating our family, why do you still let her in?"

Ning Pengpeng glanced at the angry Wang, and then replied in a light tone.

"Don't forget, what I told you before."

Before Ning Pengpeng's words fell, he heard a familiar voice outside the door.

"Sister Wang, you can make it hard for your sister to find it."

Liu followed behind the subordinate, and as soon as he entered Zhuangzi's living room, he greeted Wang with a smile.

Wang Shi was stunned by her shameless words.

Ning Pengpeng looked the woman in front of her up and down, it seems that the Xue family's affairs are the one who threads the needle in the middle!

"Yo, this must be Sister Wang's mother-in-law, right?

I don't know how much the county lord is disturbed in this Zhuangzi, so Xue Liu asked the county lord to say goodbye. ”

When Liu saw Ning Pengpeng, he first showed a look of surprise, and then hurriedly saluted Ning Pengpeng respectfully.

If Ning Pengpeng is really the original body, I am afraid that he will really be pleased by Liu's respectful attitude.

It's a pity that Ning Pengpeng is not.

This time, she looked at this Xue Liu seriously.

It seems that Wang was deceived by this person, and he was really unjust.

The Liu family was originally pretending, thinking that with such a respectful attitude of herself, this Shouning County Lord would definitely let her get up.

Unexpectedly, after he asked for peace, the county lord of Shouning didn't say a word, just stared at himself.

This was not only unexpected by her, but also made it difficult for her to maintain such a posture of greeting.

After all, who can keep their bodies down and half-squat so slightly?

After a long time, the sweat on Liu's forehead fell one by one.

After a while, her rouge gouache-coated face was dripping out of grooves.

Ask for a monthly pass, what's the deal!
