People in Datang, start with a golden hoe

Before winter came, the caravan from Lingnan Road arrived before the road froze and delivered another large amount of cotton, which was five times the amount of the first batch.This was specially taken care of by Cai Xiaolan.

In this season, people need cotton even more.How can we withstand the cold wind if we don't add something in the middle layer of clothes?

Shredded hay, twine, animal hair...

The guys from the Fourth Surname Zhiqi Carriage and Horse Racing Shop have another business, walking around the streets and selling cotton.The guys at the car dealership all wore special bright red overalls, with the layers stuffed with cotton, making them bulging and conspicuous.

Cheap cotton became a hot commodity.People inside and outside the city are proud to buy it.Whether they are ordinary people or businessmen, they all understand the value of cotton.

Suddenly, there was an endless stream of people rushing to Tianfu Jucaiju to make an appointment with Cai Xiaolan to plant cotton after spring.

"Xiaolan, did you really promise to provide them with seeds and technology for free?" Xu Yinlian slipped back home from the workshop at some point.Sitting at the door, I finally waited for the visiting farmers to finish registering their names and then leave.

"Of course, otherwise why would they only sell cotton to us?" Zhengzong Caishi asked.

Xu Yinlian was speechless for a moment and couldn't understand the meaning inside.From her perspective, their workshop was not the only one that needed cotton in Yangzhou City.

"You are the big boss, you have the final say." Xu Yinlian thought about a batch of goods in the factory and wanted to find Fengcang to transport them to Qi Ran Tang. Then she realized that she hadn't seen him in many days, "By the way, these days Why haven’t you seen Fengcang? I haven’t seen him come for dinner either.”

"He is busy selling cotton. I gave him a death order, and he must sell half of it in ten days!" Cai Xiaolan put down the pen in his hand and shouted again, "Xiaoqin!"

"Ah? No wonder I haven't seen him for several days. This task is not light, and half the amount is quite a lot. Don't tell me, how did they come up with the idea of ​​compressing the cotton in a wooden box and sending it over?" Xu Yinlian asked the question in her heart out.

Just when Xu Xiaoqin heard her mother's question, she couldn't help but replied: "That's not easy! In order to make more money! In the same trip, you delivered five times more goods than your peers. Did you also earn five times as much as others? !”

There were so many people in the room just now, and she felt so bored that she went outside.

"Oh, mother, I didn't expect that. Xiaoqin is smart!" She turned back to look at Cai Xiaolan, "It's all Xiaolan's teaching."

"She has grown, but her shortcomings have also been exposed. When people from Liujiazhuang came over just now, she kept covering her nose. And in front of them! I'm ashamed!" Cai Xiaolan looked grim, obviously angry.

"Sister-in-law Xiaolan, but the smell from those people just now was too strong." The smell is still lingering in Xu Xiaoqin's nose.

The earth dragon burns vigorously and the heat in the house is high.Farmers don't take showers in winter, and the smell of sweat on their bodies is particularly noticeable in the steaming house.

When Xu Yinlian heard this, she became angry, "You damn girl, how many good days have you spent? If Xiaolan hadn't found a way to get a bathtub, would we have no smell?"

"Mom, Sister-in-law Xiaolan, I was wrong!" Xu Xiaoqin stood aside awkwardly.

"What did you say wrong?"

"I shouldn't dislike the smell of Liujiazhuang people."

"Think again!" Cai Xiaolan knocked on the table, startling the mother and daughter.

Xu Xiaoqin looked at Cai Xiaolan with big watery eyes. It was obvious that she didn't know where she went wrong.

Cai Xiaolan reached out and pinched her ears gently, "You!"

"I've told you many times to respect people. You are clean because you don't have to do so much hard work. They smell bad. It's not that they are lazy or don't like to be clean, but that they don't have the time or the conditions to be clean! You The dislike makes people feel embarrassed." Cai Xiaolan not only criticized this behavior, but also criticized Xiaoqin's condescending attitude.

"I know, I will respect others next time." Xu Xiaoqin was in a low mood.

Xu Yinlian knew in her heart that Cai Xiaolan taught Xiaoqin so that she could grow into a polite person in the future, but she felt heartbroken when she saw her daughter looking lonely.Gritting his teeth, he stood aside, not knowing what to say.

"You will be punished by copying the book twice. You cannot learn medicine without a heart of kindness."

This sentence is true. The conditions of patients are complex, and many of them do not receive necessary care. They have pus, wounds, and even rot.If you dislike it, it will not only damage the patient's self-esteem and create a gap between doctor and patient, but also lead to misdiagnosis due to incomplete observation.

……

The cheapest thing in winter is manpower. There are no people in the fields or on the roads.Both Qi Ran Tang and Huan Sha Tang expanded production, especially the latter.Xu Yinlian also brought a ten-pedal loom from Cheng Mushi's shop. The current Huansha Hall can accommodate 50 people weaving at the same time.

When the calculation method of remuneration was changed from day-based to piece-based, the efficiency increased several times.Today’s Huan Sha Tang has an astonishing daily output.A small part of the extra output was sent to the next county by the Four Surnames Loyalty Cart and Horse Company.There was also a buying craze.

At the gate of Yangzhou City, three officers were stopped unexpectedly.

"Young lady, what are you doing in the city? Could it be that you are dating a lover?" The servant was not formal, and his eyes were lewd when he spoke.

Cai Xiaolan was wearing a thick cloth skirt and holding a wooden box in her arms. She came by the carriage of Zhiqi Xing.Without the carriage as a foil, he suddenly became the object of teasing.

"The Law of the Tang Dynasty: If you molest a good girl in the street, you will be punished with twenty rods!"

"Oh, I didn't expect that you still understand the rules. I suspect that you are carrying dangerous items, and I want to search you now." The leading servant obviously had never suffered a loss before, and he could not lose face in front of the two younger brothers.

Cai Xiaolan frowned.

The officer at the back gently pulled the headband, put it in his ear and whispered: "Brother, this is Cai Xiaolan!"

The man only felt that the name was familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was. Hearing the younger brother's words, he thought he was an acquaintance of the younger brother, and couldn't help but get angry. "Everyone has to check! But if you know-"

"Bu - cloth -"

"Ah?" He finally remembered who Cai Xiaolan was.

Isn't it the famous people in the city who invented the orchid picking method for poor people?

"Oh, it turns out to be Cai Xiaoniang from the 'Ren Ai' workshop, please come in! I'm a dog who looks down on others. I can't spit out ivory from my dog's mouth. I don't know how high the sky is when I bark..." The head officer's face changed instantly and he changed his mind. Faced with the superior's expression, he greeted him with a smile.

Zheng Yisong was the first to name the "Ren Ai" workshop.When he cut the ribbon with the governor, he completely surrendered to Cai Xiaolan's personality charm.It took me five or six days to come home and write down a poem about cotton, praising cotton as a cloth of benevolence and praising Xiaolan as a female saint.

"That's enough!" If Cai Xiaolan didn't yell to stop, the guard would have said all the excuses in the world for taking care of a dog.

"Young lady is just doing your duty as a human being. You should not praise her." Cai Xiaolan didn't want to communicate too much with him and went straight to the government office. (End of chapter)
