Red makeup against the world

Chapter 963 Cotton
The ceremony here was completed, and the admission grandma walked back with a big smile on her face while holding the heavy seal red, and the auspicious words in her mouth were uttered as if she didn't want money.

The calligraphy written by Dr. Tu was brought in from the front yard. On the clean white rice paper, there was a word "Jing" written in a smooth and steady manner.Jing, which means the brilliance of jade, has been passed down from the Pingguo government to the generation of the young prince, and it is time to keep a low profile and accumulate strength.

According to the genealogy of the Liu family, it is the generation of "Ze", so the name of the youngest son is Liu Zejing.

"Oh, my brother Jing." Mrs. Zeng hugged Xiao Shizi, and kissed his little cheek.Brother Jing supported Zeng's face with his small hands, giggled, and saliva dripped down his toothless mouth.

My own grandson is really cute no matter how you look at it.

Zeng didn't dislike his saliva either, she took her light gauze handkerchief and wiped it off for him, only seeing his smiling face.

The women surrounding her complimented her again and again: "Look at the intimacy between the young prince and his wife, it really is a relative of grandparents."

"Yes, yes! These eyebrows and eyes are not exactly the same as those of Shizi when he was young."

Xu Wanzhen secretly cursed in her heart, such a small baby, how can anyone tell who it looks like?

The Pingguo mansion was lively for half a day, and a dinner was held to entertain these close relatives.

As the sky gradually darkened, Xu Wanzhen came out from the hanging flower gate.Wu Zhengxiang was waiting for her here, and said with a smile, "I thought you wouldn't leave."

Except for these close sisters, Xu Wanzhen didn't have any handkerchiefs to hand.

After coming here, it was the first time for her to see the newborn baby so close, so she couldn't help but take a few more glances.

"I like it so much, why don't we go back earlier and work harder?" Wu Zhengxiang looked at her with a teasing smile in his eyes.

The maidservants behind Xu Wanzhen covered their mouths and chuckled, Xu Wanzhen shot him an angry look, "What are you talking about!" without looking where he was.

The tenth year of Qinglong is a year of good weather.Maybe it's God's pity for the hard work of the people, so there will be no disasters or disasters this year.

The crown prince has also become more calm and experienced in observing the government, and he has already reached the point where he can dominate the affairs of the court, and there are fewer and fewer things to ask for help from Emperor Qinglong.

Emperor Qinglong saw it, on the one hand he was very pleased, on the other hand he was a little bit disappointed.But his body inevitably declined day by day.

Empress Cao watched silently, her feelings for this man were very complicated.Marrying him changed the trajectory of her entire life.

When he was young, Emperor Qinglong treated her with a lot of indifference, but at the same time gave her enough respect.In recent years, the relationship between the two has greatly eased, not to mention the love that follows life and death, but also the family relationship that has accompanied them for many years.

Seeing that his time was short, Empress Cao was also very upset.

Fortunately, the crown prince was worried about government affairs, so she tried her best to manage the palace affairs at hand so that Emperor Qinglong could live freely in the harem.

With Jiang Bingwei by his side regardless of status, Emperor Qinglong cherished the few remaining time even more.Or go to Yanqing Palace to talk to Queen Mother Xiao, or to see the homework of the princes and princesses, and to meet his former concubines.

Since he ascended the throne as the emperor, he has never been so leisurely.This year, he put aside all his worries and traveled all over the harem.If it wasn't for his physical condition, he even wanted to go out and have a look around, to see with his own eyes the great rivers and mountains under his governance.

As for the folks, a lot of things that Xu Wanzhen cared about happened in this year.

Tu Manfen married Wang Leyu in June, and when the sweet-scented osmanthus blossomed in August, there was good news of her pregnancy.

After Tu Manfen got married, she became the mistress of the house, and Wang Leyu severed ties with the Wang family in Suzhou long ago and set up her own family.He kept his promise to keep her busy with the cotton mill.

Finally, when she was diagnosed with pregnancy, the cotton workshop also produced light white and soft cotton.

Double happiness came to the door, Mr. Ning hosted a banquet in Baicaowei for the meritorious ministers, and distributed rewards, and the cotton workshop can officially start mass production.

After Tu Manfen became pregnant, Mr. Ning did not allow her to continue running around.After discussing the shares with Xu Wenmin, Xu Wenmin sent a steward to carry out follow-up matters.

Under the leadership of Mr. Ning, cotton was successfully produced.But she is indifferent and doesn't care much about money. She never thought of monopolizing resources and making profits from them.

She and Xu Wanzhen's original intention was to make common people wear warm and affordable cotton-padded clothes.Moreover, the role of cotton is too great, and the entire textile industry will benefit from it.

Therefore, what Mr. Ning thinks is to allow this technology to be quickly popularized to the whole height, not for her exclusive use.

After convening Xu Wanzhen, Xu Wenmin, and Tu Manfen to discuss together, the cotton weaving technology was formulated and reported to the court through the brocade weaving workshop.

The finished products made of cotton, such as cotton quilts, cotton jackets, cotton cloth, etc., were handed over to the Xu family company to build a special workshop to expand production.And, through the sales network of the firm, it quickly spread to the whole world.

Mr. Ning changed the former cotton workshop into a place for further research on cotton products.For example, the sanitary napkin that Xu Wanzhen never forgets.

The brocade weaving workshop was in charge of weaving. The emergence of this new technology made Xu Changzong also make a contribution.

The prince is very interested in new folk things. The quill pen presented by Xu Wanzhen a few years ago has now spread all over the world through schools and businesses.

Quill pens are cheap and can be made from materials readily available.It reduces the learning cost of poor students, and even popularizes writing to a certain extent, which makes the people's wisdom open.

This cotton spinning wheel and other technologies made him see far more than simple business opportunities.With such economical and affordable things to keep out the cold, more old and weak can survive the cold winter.

Since Gao Mang came to power, he has just recovered from the chaos of the previous dynasty.After the recuperation of Emperor Xian and Emperor Qinglong, the earth glowed with vitality, and the population slowly multiplied.

For a country to prosper, whether it is military power or business, the humble people are the top priority.

More importantly, providing such thick padded jackets to frontier soldiers will increase their combat effectiveness by at least [-]%.

This is no exaggeration.

You must know that although the textile industry in Gaomang is well-developed, the value of silk and satin is so high that ordinary people cannot afford it.

Before there was cotton, what the people wore the most was linen made from rough hemp such as kudzu hemp.Coarse clothes made of this kind of linen, the fibers are very hard to pierce the skin, and more importantly, the function of keeping out the cold is extremely poor.

Fur, fox fur and other things that rich families often use to keep out the cold in winter are even more out of reach for ordinary people.

Even the soldiers guarding the frontier, most of them only wear linen clothes.Only a very small number of generals and lieutenants are qualified to wear those silk furs.
