Chapter 777: Could It Be That These Grasses Are Poisonous?
The other weeds, no matter how high they are, are up to Chu Ze's waist.
But these strains are different.
The tallest branch was one or two centimeters taller than Chu Ze.
In fact, what shocked him was not how tall the weeds weeds.
Rather, on top of the weeds, the white fluffy cotton wool like a white cloud.
Without waiting for the man to invite them in, Chu Ze couldn't help but step in.
The man was stunned, and a few question marks popped up on his head.
'Why did Lord Chu go in by himself?' We haven't invited you yet. ’
"No, no, why did Lord Chu go over to those weeds. ’
His treasures are well kept by him.
Not under the weeds.
The man hurried over.
Zhu Fan also followed up.
Unlike men, Zhu Fan clearly knew that Chu Ze was eyeing those free-growing weeds.
"No, people invited you to come and see the baby, what are you staring at the weeds in their yards?" Zhu Fan was disgusted in his mouth, but his footsteps walked honestly towards Chu Ze, and his eyes fell on the few weeds.
He watched intently.
No matter how you look at it, it's all weeds.
Nothing surprising.
Zhu Fan reached out to grab it.
"Smack!"
As soon as his hand stretched out, he was slapped away by Chu Ze.
"Hiss......" Zhu Fan gasped lightly.
He reflexively withdrew his hand, looked at the back of his red hand, and condemned: "Chu Ze, what are you doing!" ”
Didn't he just want to touch the weeds?
As for beating him.
No, Chu Ze generally doesn't beat people, unless he ......
Zhu Fan looked at the weeds in front of him and said in a vigilant voice: "Could it be that these grasses are poisonous?" ”
"No, no, no, this is an ordinary weed, it's not poisonous." The man panicked.
This is his yard, in case of poison, in case of rejuvenating these two, ten lives are not enough for him to pay.
The man hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "These are some wild grasses, which are said to be Yuan ...... It was handed down from the previous dynasty, and its name was cotton. I don't know where a few seeds came from, but they fell in our yard and grew. "He is lazy by nature, and he doesn't clean up the grass that grows in the yard.
Anyway, it's not poisonous, just let them grow.
I didn't think about it and almost caused a misunderstanding.
The man wiped a cold sweat.
He smiled flatteringly, trying to invite Chu Ze Zhu Fan aside.
"Second master, you go to the house and sit down first, you can barely see people in the house, and you don't have to look at these weeds." As he spoke, he went back to the cotton.
With a click, he broke a few branches.
Chu Ze didn't have time to stop it.
Looking at the broken cotton, Chu Ze was heartbroken.
He took a step forward and grabbed the cotton.
"What are you doing, let's let you fold?" Chu Ze snatched the cotton, looking at the cotton that was scattered due to the sudden external force, it was distressing.
He glared at the man angrily.
Man: "......"
Did he slap the horse's leg on the horse's shoulder?
The man looked slightly panicked.
"Come on, aren't you going to get the baby? Why don't you rush and get it? Chu Ze looked at him a little unpleasantly now, and he just wanted to drive people away quickly.
Seeing that Chu Ze was in a bad mood, the man didn't dare to say more, so he turned around and entered the house.
As soon as he left, Zhu Fan came to Chu Ze's side: "What's wrong with this cotton?" ”
It made Chu Zesheng so atmospheric.
Chu Ze sighed helplessly.
"Do you know cotton?" Chu Ze shook the stump in his hand in front of Zhu Zhang.
Zhu Fan took it: "That person just said, isn't this it." ”
"Do you know anything else besides what he just said?" Chu Ze asked again.
This stumped Zhu Zhang.
He shook his head and said honestly, "I don't know. ”
"Do you know anything when you ask?"
Zhu Fan asked.
Chu Ze gave him a thumbs up: "Yes, the reaction is getting faster and faster." ”
Zhu Fan looked up triumphantly.
And I don't look at who he is.
And he has been following Chu Ze, no matter how stupid he is, he can learn something.
"Don't hang our appetite, hurry up and tell me what's wrong with this cotton." Zhu Fan held a cotton branch and dangled it in front of Chu Ze and urged.
Chu Ze set his eyes on the cotton that had not yet dispersed.
He didn't answer Zhu Fan immediately, but asked, "Do you know what things we use to keep out the cold in winter now?" ”
Zhu Rong's curiosity was immediately retracted.
He was speechless and said, "You take us as children?" ”
This is a question that can be answered by a three-year-old child.
"Rich fox fur lambskins, those who don't have money can have dog skins, and there are kapok uses, princes, nobles, and ordinary people can use them. That's all, nothing else. Zhu Fan stretched out his finger and divided five by two to finish the answer.
Chu Ze nodded.
He stretched out his hand and pointed to the white cloud of cotton in front of him.
"Then do you know that this kind of thing in front of you can also protect against the cold?"
Zhu Fan followed Chu Ze's hand and looked at the cotton.
The small eyes were full of doubts.
After a while, he sent out a soul torture question: "That's it?" ”
"Yes." Chu Ze was sure, "That's it." ”
Chu Ze stretched out his hand and picked a cotton flower.
Cotton is light and soft.
A slight pinch turns it into a small ball.
was held in Chu Ze's hand and let him pinch and knead it.
"It's called cotton, and you've heard that guy say that. As far as we know, it has been introduced to China during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. However, it may be that the planting area is not wide, and it was not until the Song and Yuan dynasties that there was a trend of development to the Central Plains. ”
And depending on the situation, the promotion of cotton in these two dynasties is not large.
Until now, there are still people who regard it as a weed.
Chu Ze looked left and right, and when he was sure that there was no one around, he lowered his voice and continued: "In our time, cotton was an excellent thing, making cotton clothes and quilts, after spinning into thread, it can also be used to make clothes and fabrics. Because of its low price, both those who have money and those who don't can afford it. There are also its seeds, which can also be used as cooking oil. In short, the benefits are great. Chu Ze stretched out a thumbs up, eager to praise the cotton to the sky.
Zhu Fan listened, and the more he listened, the more excited he became.
When Chu Ze finished speaking, he grabbed Chu Ze's arm and said, "What you said is true?" ”
"Have we ever deceived someone about this kind of thing?"
Not really.
Chu Ze could lie about other things, but on these things, he wouldn't.
Zhu Fan looked at these tall cotton plants, and the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.
After a long time, he said to Chu Ze: "Then if we plant a large area, will our people in Daming no longer worry about freezing in winter?" ”
"That's nature." Chu Ze nodded affirmatively.
Zhu Fan immediately said: "Then what else are you talking about, plant." ”
"By the way, where can I grow cotton?"
"Fujian can." Chu Ze gave an accurate answer.
Zhu Fan was even happier.
He said excitedly: "Then let's plant here, and tomorrow we will find a place to plant." ”
"Don't worry, the time for cotton planting has passed this year, and it won't be until tomorrow. It's just that we can first predict a good place, organize a good manpower, and then prepare the seeds, and when the time arrives tomorrow, we can plant them directly. Chu Ze had already thought about the follow-up just now. (End of chapter)
