Su Huaicheng and Zhu Decai took the clothes and immediately put them on their bodies, and soon, they felt warm all over their bodies.

Zhu Decai touched the fabric with his hand, felt that it was light and smooth, and then pulled the corner of his clothes, and asked curiously, "What is this made of?" It's not very thick, but it looks like you're wearing a fire robe. ”

Su Huaicheng also nodded: "Yes, I have never worn such a woolen sweater in my hometown." ”

Chi Erhanyan said seriously: "This is not a woolen sweater, but a dress made of cashmere, of course it is warm." ”

"Cashmere?" "I see, it's clothes made of the long hair that grows on the sheep and rolls up." ”

Chi Erhanyan smiled and waved his hand: "No, the kind of sheep you are talking about is sheep, sheep don't produce wool at all, only wool, and the wool they take off is called wool, so there is no cashmere sweater." It is important to know that the material of this garment is cashmere. ”

Zhu Decai: "So, what kind of sheep produces this kind of cashmere?"

"It is our goats in the alpine region," Chi Erhanyan further explained, "cashmere is a thin layer of fine wool that grows on the outer skin layer of goats and covers the roots of goats' coarse hairs. The washed cashmere is combed to remove the coarse hair, dead hair and dander in the raw cashmere before cashmere is obtained. This rare special animal fiber has good warmth and moisture absorption. The cashmere produced by our goats here is famous both at home and abroad. ”

Su Huaicheng sighed with emotion: "Ah, it turns out that there is so much knowledge about the wool between sheep and sheep. ”

Zhu Decai was a little enlightened: "In this way, cashmere and sheep's wool are two products with completely different intrinsic qualities. ”

Chi Erhanyan nodded: "Yes, cashmere is two to three times warmer than wool, but it weighs only one-fifth of wool. A goat can only produce about one or two plush a year, which means that the cashmere produced by six or seven goats in a year can only make an ordinary cashmere sweater. Therefore, the price of cashmere sweaters is generally seven or even ten times that of woollen cedar. ”

Su Huaicheng: "Ah, it seems that this cashmere is really precious!"

Chi Erhanyan: "Yes, that's why insiders call cashmere 'soft gold' or 'diamond'! Wearing cashmere sweaters in our production area is already precious, and only royal relatives and dignitaries can afford to wear this kind of cashmere sweaters in the outside world." ”

Zhu Decai pulled the cashmere sweater he was wearing and said to Su Huaicheng with a smile: "Uncle, you and I are also here this time as royal relatives and dignitaries." ”

Su Huaicheng also laughed heartily: "I can't imagine that we mountain people also have such a high-level enjoyment!"

"You're our guests!" Chi Erhanyan became interested, and the conversation box opened, "However, even if it is a cashmere sweater, there is more knowledge in its quality!"

Zhu Decai is a very curious person, blinked and said: "Maybe my uncle and I will soar in the future, you can teach us how to distinguish the quality of cashmere sweaters from good and bad, is it okay?"

"Okay." Seeing that Zhu Decai's desire for knowledge was so strong, Chi Erhanyan talked to him and Su Huaicheng endlessly......

Chier Hanyan spoke very seriously, and Zhu Decai also listened very seriously. Things in the world are ever-changing, and no one could have imagined that Zhu Decai's trip to Saibei would become an important turning point in his future life.

Su Huaicheng and Zhu Decai came to the prairie of Ordos this time, and with the help of Chierhanyan, they selected a few good horses, and after a long journey, returned to the foot of Tianlu Mountain in Xinzhou.

Su Huaicheng and Zhu Decai became coaches, taught the recruited young people to learn to ride horses, and formed the first horse team at the foot of Tianlu Mountain.

Zhu Decai has a soft spot for horses. He went to the mountains every day to cut grass and feed the horses, and washed the horses. There was a red-maned horse, with shiny hair all over his body, and he was Zhu Decai's favorite horse, and when he was fine, he rode around on the red-maned horse.

If the villagers near the cave want to transport their self-produced mountain goods to the distant Tianlu Mountain Peak Tiantianping, exchange seafood or other dry goods with people in Kaiping, Yangjiang and other places, and climb the winding and steep mountain road on their shoulders, they will be extremely tired and the time will drag on for a long time; Therefore, they often came to Li Jinfeng and entrusted her to use a horse team to transport the mountain to the top of the mountain for them to do business.

Every time he arrives at the polder day of the Heavenly Polder, Zhu Decai will receive a task from his aunt: riding his beloved red-maned horse, leading a team of horses carrying mountain goods, followed by the mountain cargo owners on foot, and going up on the long ancient post road of Tianlu Mountain, pointing straight to the Heavenly Polder on the top of the mountain. The scene is spectacular.

In the evening, Zhu Decai braved the sunset and sunset, led a team of horses, took the owner of the goods, and returned the original way with the dried seafood exchanged from the top of the mountain.

Since then, the ancient post road leading to Kaiping and Enping in Tianlu Mountain has appeared in this horse team.

Zhu Decai is happy to do this job, because while working, with the changes of the four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter, you can also watch the different scenery changes on both sides of the ancient post road of Tianlu Mountain in the morning and evening.

……

Liu Yuxuan's teacher of Lidong Academy is also a student of Li Zhangjiao, but he is only a few years higher than Zhu Decai. Once when he went back to the county to visit his mentor Gu Zhangjiao, Gu Zhangjiao recommended Zhu Decai to him.

So, Liu Yuxuan Distillery came to visit and sincerely asked Zhu Decai to be a part-time teacher of Lidong Academy.

Li Jinfeng felt that this was also a good opportunity for his nephew to go to the society to experience, so he strongly supported Zhu Decai to serve as a part-time teacher at Lidong Academy.

In this way, Zhu Decai works in his aunt's house, includes food and housing, and can receive a high salary every month; In addition, he went to work as a part-time teacher, and he had another income every month, and Li Jinfeng's family had such a transport horse team and some long-term customers, and it was a one-city business within a radius of ten miles in Lidong. Her business methods are appropriate, so she is like a cloud.

Zhu Decai has never been satisfied with the status quo, and he also gave his aunt Li Jinfeng an idea to expand the scope of the horse team's transportation of goods.

Li Jinfeng saw that this idea was good, so he asked Zhu Decai to be the person in charge, and took a few horses under his command to expand out.

The horse team transported the Ganoderma lucidum, shiitake mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, yuba, Liangguo and other mountain goods produced in Xinzhou to Nanhai, Panyu and Shunde, and on the return trip, they transported Xiqiao flatbread, Shunde dried dace, Daliang Bangsha, Jiujiang fried dumplings, Xinhui appetizer, Zhaoqing steamed and other goods back to the stores linked to Xinzhou County.

For a time, the business of Li Jinfeng's winery and horse team was booming.

There is a saying: the tree will attract the wind, and if the business is good, it will be jealous.
