Chapter 1040:Extra (9)
The things used in the departure basically did not have to worry about the husband and wife, and the mother Xiao herself handled it, and all aspects were prepared properly.
Xiao mother lived for a month, more and more reluctant, I don't know why, here, she has a feeling of blood, here, is the most difficult place for her husband to give up.
These days, Xiao mother more than once to the north of the city defense camp, although there is no more war with the barbarians, but there are still soldiers, especially the New Year's holiday, they can not go home, even can not eat a hot meal.
The city defense conditions are simple, although the windproof stone house is built, there are also places to roast the fire, but every night to the middle of the night, the cold invasion, even if it is the fire of the big young man, can not bear.
"This year's cotton production cuts, the military can't keep up, how do soldiers spend the winter?"
These two years of war, the treasury is empty, certainly can not allocate much silver down, need soldiers to solve it.
Cotton clothing can only be worn for one year, the second year, the third year is not warm.In the battlefield, scraping and touching is inevitable, and finally, the soldiers thought of a way to fill the loopholes with breaking.
But the filling is made up, but it is not warm, and the wind is through.Many soldiers have rheumatism and arthritis, and when it rains on a cloudy day, it will not hurt.
“Where is the fur?”
Cotton production, along the way, Li Haitang also heard.
The beginning of the lunar month in early October snow, dripping water into ice, it can be seen that this year is not warm, but also a cold winter.
Although the robe is warm, it is not resistant to the wind, and it is best to add a layer of fur.
"The price of fur is not cheap, the soldiers' wages are limited, where can there be silver?"
Xiao mother herself has a certain amount of money, but spend part of it, there is not much left, she still wants to leave it to her grandchildren.
The first floor is to make money, but not her alone, most of them turned over to the treasury, she can only leave one or two percent, it can be said that it is the industry of the jade family.
After listening to Li Haitang, she and tassels, Zhang Ruyi to raise a sum of money, it is reasonable to give the soldiers a batch of equipment no problem, but, the dead sand and the disabled soldiers, how to pay?
Every copper plate should be used on the blade, spend a penny, and then a penny is missing.
Whether it is Xiao's daughter-in-law, or the Yu family's golden branch, Li Haitang pays attention to the soldiers' clothing, food and housing, and is responsible.
She and her mother-in-law Xiao mother thought together, want to postpone the day of departure of two or three days, solved and then go.
“Madam, although cotton has been reduced, there is a lot of it.”
Five Fu remembered that every night these days, there are villagers burning wool, that taste pungent, smell after dizziness, if you can use it, it is better.
“The wool?”
Li Haitang's eyes lit up, she remembers, several families around Lijia Village, there are spinning wheels at home.When the farm is idle, the women of the family are used to spinning to make money.
"I used to see someone rubbing their own lines with wool, but they could make a small thing if they were different in thickness."Xiao mother is well-informed, Li Haitang casually said, she will understand how to go back to things, immediately open a new idea, if you can spin wool into wool, make a small coat, wear in it, can be more warm than the wind as a dozen thin clothes.
. .
"So, mother, it's not too late, let's go to the people with the spinning wheel first."
The number of textile cars in the north is not compared to the south, but in the town, you can also find a few, there is a neighbor who is still Xiao Ma, the family baby, these days and the small bean bag is very familiar.
The mother-in-law and mother-in-law said, knocking directly at the door and went to the neighbor's house.
That family to do a little business, the ancestral house, the home furnishings are simple, not less than enough, more than, not very rich.
In fact, this family opened the house.
“Is this a spinning wheel?”
Li Haitang saw it more truly and said excitedly.
"Yes, it is a spinning wheel, the house is open, some fabrics have holes, I will repair it, otherwise, I can only cut off the rags."
The woman was in her thirties, and was the mistress of the house, and looked very competent.
"With this spinning wheel, we can spin cotton into cotton."With cotton, you can also weave cotton.”
Five Fu broke his finger, said to himself, suddenly surprised, "If there is wool, can you also spin into wool?" 」
If this can be spun into wool, then can you knit a sweater, knitting scarves and gloves and a hat!
The woman nodded, of course, but the wool, which had come down from the sheep, stinked, so they had never thought of it before.
If you can get rid of the taste, coupled with the effect of keeping warm, it is definitely a way to get rich.
The family did a small book business, but did not delay the woman's keen business opportunities, and suddenly caught the key.
With regard to wool, there must be a saying, not ordinary goats can be, but whether it is the north or the barbarous, the most indispensable thing is this thing, even more than cotton.
The white fruit went out to get some wool, and according to the method of spinning, the woman got a complete yarn, and she was shocked.
“Is that become?”Xiao mother smiles, wool is not as warm as cotton clothes, the same can be dyed, if weave into a ready-to-wear, get to the first floor to sell, you can sit at the starting price, Kyoto climate, put on a layer of wool dress, there is no hot place to go,
It could also lead to the trend in Kyoto.
"Mother, you're doing well, but we're too late this year."
Now in the lunar month of October, Kyoto is also the coldest winter moon, and when the spring is over, you don't need thick clothes.
Now buy wool, and then find people, dyeing, design patterns, spinning, make clothes, at least two or three months, before the New Year, too late, then miss, can only wait for next year.
"Let's go tomorrow, and today we'll finalize this, and find someone who is busy."
Xiao mother said, look at the five blessings, five blessings just married, Wu Qi is a competent, it is better to stay in the north, after the end of the year and then go back, help take care of this matter.
Although the neighbors are good, let the other party have full authority to deal with the matter, Xiao Ma is not at ease, especially when it comes to money transactions.
“Five, stay here.”
Li Haitang thought, Wufu newly married Yan, or not separated from his family, now from the New Year is more than a month.
"Madam, I want to go back with you, I'll stay in the north, and I can't do anything."
Five blessings, Wu Shusheng, where is the wife important?Every time she cheated her of undressing, and only after he undressed, he found that he was more skinny than her, and it was simply intolerable.
Wufu hates that a man is more beautiful than a woman, delicate skin, she does not admit that this is jealousy, so... anyway, Wu Qi always said that his waist acid, this can only be unspeakable.
