Chapter 145: Find
The more I thought about it, the more wonderful Jiang Zhixia became, and his eyes narrowed into a line with a smile.
"Girl, where is this cotton flower?"
Aunt Zhang's inquiring voice came, interrupting Jiang Zhixia's sweet dream.
"Oh, just put it in the yard and dry it."
Jiang Zhixia came to his senses, and also remembered that the most important thing was to buy cotton in large quantities and hire people who knew cotton.
Cotton came from southern Xinjiang. She didn't have the manpower to go to Hainan, so far away.
In my previous life, I would have sat for hours on a plane.
In this life, even if you can speed up the whip, but now I don't know how to build this road. If you can't get it, there won't be so many official roads to follow. That back and forth for months?
Not to mention, Jiang Zhixia also wanted to buy some cotton and come back.
If you buy it, you have to use a horse-drawn carriage for the journey back. In this way, it was even later.
It's August now, and I vaguely remember that cotton was sown in March and April in the spring.
Between now and March of the following year, there are seven months in between. I think it's too late to buy it, right?
Let's try to buy some cotton. In case the cotton harvest is not good, she can also use the cotton she bought first.
She can't do this cotton business herself----- she doesn't have any manpower.
So, definitely find someone to do it together.
The candidate for business, naturally, needless to say, must be Chu Tiankuo.
All she needed was a small amount of money.
And Chu Tiankuo can use this cotton to do bigger business, make more friends, and consolidate more power.
His power is strong, and she will be wiped out after him-------- but she will not be wiped out in vain. It will definitely give full play to the role of cotton.
Like cotton, cotton, quilt, naturally needless to say. Simple sanitary napkins can also be made.
In short, she will contribute all the solutions she can think of.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhixia was puzzled again, was Chu Tiankuo so busy this time? It's been more than half a month, and I haven't taken a bath once?
Anyway, the cotton business is very important. Now we have to get going. Otherwise, it will be even more difficult to walk in winter. In that way, I don't know how long it will be delayed.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhixia instructed Uncle He: "Uncle He, you go to the gate of the workshop and hire a car for me." I'm going out for a trip. ”
Uncle He responded and went to the gate of the workshop to hire a carriage.
Jiang Zhixia rode the carriage to Zhu Cui Building and found the shopkeeper Xu.
Shopkeeper Xu naturally knew that his owner was married to Jiang Zhixia. This is the future owner lady. So, very politely and respectfully, I was invited in.
After hearing Jiang Zhixia say that he needed him to hand over a letter to Chu Tiankuo, he called Ji Lei over and asked him to go to the barracks to deliver the letter.
"Tell Brother Chu that he is not in a hurry, and when he is free, he can come back. Don't be like last time. ”
Jiang Zhixia instructed Ji Lei.
No experience last time. Therefore, Brother Chu hurried up, and rushed back when he was tired.
This time, it's not so urgent.
Ji Lei respectfully took the order and set off.
Jiang Zhixia chatted with Shopkeeper Xu for a few words, then left Zhu Cuilou and went home.
Although Jiang Zhixia told her not to be in a hurry, Chu Tiankuo came about an hour after she went home.
Jiang Zhixia got the news and hurriedly went from the backyard to the front yard.
"Why did Brother Chu come so soon? Didn't you say there was no hurry?"
"I didn't have anything to do, so I rushed over. However, I had to go back to the barracks before the curfew. ”
Chu Tiankuo was afraid that Jiang Zhixia would discuss with him again to withdraw from his family, so he made a foreshadowing first.
"Okay. Good. I'll make a long story short. ”
Jiang Zhixia saw that Chu Tiankuo was busy, so he briefly told him about the discovery of cotton and the role of cotton.
"Zhixia, this is also from a book?"
Chu Tiankuo asked hesitantly.
Jiang Zhixia knows too much. However, she said that she read it from a book.
He didn't read poetry to his heart's content. Therefore, although she was a little suspicious, she couldn't think of any other way for her to know about these things.
"Yes."
Jiang Zhixia replied with a slight blush. The fingers are in the sleeves, tightly pinching the tiger's mouth to warn themselves that they can't be weak-hearted, can't be weak-hearted.
"When I was younger, I came across one of my father's miscellaneous books. Inside there is a pattern of cotton flowers. I haven't seen it before, so I took a closer look. It seems to be described by a tourist, saying that he had seen cotton flowers in southern Xinjiang. The flowers are white and have multiple petals, and they can be woven like silk. It can also be packed in brie to keep warm. ”
Jiang Zhixia quickly finished talking nonsense.
Chu Tiankuo groaned slowly. He'd seen cotton just now, and he didn't know how warm it was.
However, it is better than silk wool in any way.
What's more, he believes in Jiang Zhixia. Since Zhixia said that it can be used, it must be possible.
It's a deal that can be done.
Southern Xinjiang is remote, even if the price of this cotton flower is cheap, but the cost of this long journey is not cheap.
Therefore, the overall cost is not as cheap as saltpeter.
Of course, according to Zhixia, if you plant it yourself in the later stage, the cost will be reduced. In terms of profits, it is also huge.
However, no matter how big it is, it can't compare to the profit of ice making. Therefore, it is not so dangerous.
Perhaps, this business can be mentioned to the prince of Zhongwang? If he joins, then the follow-up will be easy to do.
After all, when the cotton flowers are planted in large quantities, they are then spun and used on ordinary people----- so that they can buy warm things at a cheap price. Or sell the seeds to them and let them grow their own. That's a great thing for the country and the people.
Whether it is politically speaking, or in terms of interests, the prince of Zhongwang should not refuse.
In this way, it is also a good thing for the development of his power.
When the prince is tied together with cotton, the ice-making recipe may also slowly surface and be used.
Since Chu Tiankuo had made up his mind, he planned to go back and arrange for his henchmen to find him.
"Zhixia this, I don't know what kind of return you want?"
Chu Tiankuo asked jokingly.
Jewelry patterns, Zhixia asked for blessings and dividends.
The restaurant recipe, Zhixia reluctantly asked for a dry share.
If the cotton business is started, this dry stock is naturally indispensable to Zhixia's share. It's just that I don't know if Zhixia has any other requirements?
"Brother Chu is really... Jiang Zhixia said angrily.
"Brother Chu helped me so much. I didn't want anything other than ready-made cotton and cotton seeds. It's best to recruit a few more people. Divide it between two of me----- one planting expert and one weaving expert. Nowadays, ordinary people can only use silk wool to make robes for winter, which is too cold. I don't have much ability, if I can make money, but also let them wear cotton clothes and use quilts to keep warm, it is a great thing. ”
Jiang Zhixia said with emotion.
Fur is expensive after all. Ordinary people can't afford it, let alone those in poor households.
Don't say she's Madonna. He can make money and do good things to others. The best of both worlds, so why not?
