Chapter 32 Although he is a poisonous woman, he is a mother (Part 1)

A few weeks later, Empress Qi couldn't hold on and decided to say goodbye; then it was the Sagittarius of Wei State... and then, Pu of Qi State.

A month later, all Zhao Wu's coaches disappeared - it turned out that this group of people were here to make soy sauce.

Finally, the depressed Zhao Wu had to ask his wife to take action and found three coaches from the smart home to train him in driving methods.

The reason why I asked for advice from Zhijia is that Zhao Wu did not want to reveal her secret that she knew nothing about driving skills. According to Zhiji's habit, she didn't need to pay back what she borrowed - Zhijia took out the three best coaches and took root in the Zhao family, and buried Zhao Wu's secret in Zhao family. This made Zhiyang stomp his feet at home and shouted frequently: "Why are you snatching your father's things... You are really 'girl outgoing'."

In this way, the busy spring and summer have passed.

Zhao Wu was very busy this year. He exercised in the morning and learned his ability to survive on the battlefield. In the afternoon, he wandered around in the territory under the protection of the warriors at home. This wandering made him discover the abundant resources in the territory. In his territory, in addition to the rich iron ore and coal mines, there were also gypsum ore and lime mines.

In fact, people have long used lime mines in the Spring and Autumn Period. The "mirage" used to dye them is lime. People in the Spring and Autumn Period calcined shells into mature lime, and then used the alkalinity of lime as a mordant for dyeing. However, the source of shells must be through Qiguo, which makes this material expensive. Now that lime mines are different, Zhao Wu can finally put the papermaking plan on the agenda.

Subsequently, the emergence of lime and gypsum also gave rise to the emergence of cement. The emergence of cement also caused Zhao Wu's garden construction to restart.

In the autumn, Zhao Wu's territory was magical and no slave fled. The slaves still persisted in collecting stones from the mountains. It seemed that they felt that there was no other way to thank Zhao Wu for his kindness, so while working, he took a stone from the mountains back to the city, which was also a kind of reward.

The slaves knew that they were grateful, and Zhao Wu immediately fulfilled his promise: after receiving the autumn harvest, Zhao Wu immediately issued a large number of release certificates, and a large number of slaves converted into tenants who paid rent and tax. Encouraged by this incident, many slaves found the Chu prisoner who could plant winter wheat, and then planted the winter wheat enthusiastically. According to the agreement, all the food for this crop belonged to them.

Time is slowly approaching winter. In today's words, the international situation is getting worse and worse. In other words, the international situation is getting worse and worse for Jin - this indicates that the pace of war is getting closer and closer.

At the end of the autumn of that year, civil strife occurred in Lu State. The ruling Sanheng fought for power and each gathered private troops to fight. At this point, all the firm allies of Jin State had unstable factors in their country.

At the same time, the State of Chu issued a call for gathering, began to call on friends, and at the same time extended an olive branch to Zheng State to lure Zheng State, who had always been unstable, into their arms...

The Dukes and Ministers of Jin were a little worried about the current situation. They were busy dealing with the combination of punches of Chu, but Zhao Wu, who was in Zhaocheng, had nothing to do with him and was busy developing his own family in the territory.

As a feudal lord - Well, Zhao Wu only knew what the so-called "lord" means after he became a family. That is: I am the master of my territory, including judicial power. Only those who have "judicial power within the territory" are the word "lord" in Chinese. He can call himself "vassal" in front of the king; only countries with such vassals are called "feudal".

Now, the feudal little lord Zhao Wu has taken stock of his property: the iron craft he now has basically reached the point where he is leading the times. Strictly speaking, it is slightly worse than the steel refined in the ******* era. The quality of these steels cannot satisfy Zhao Wu, but it is enough for this era.

After that, after another year of hard work, Zhao Wu finally armed his family's two thousand private soldiers to the teeth.

In terms of wood making, Zhao's furniture is now well-known in all countries. Although the recent series of diplomatic efforts by Jin State have not achieved much results, the shuttle of diplomatic envoys has spread the reputation of Zhao's furniture throughout the Central Plains. At present, the ministers and ministers of Qi have begun to transfer to Sun Lin's father to ask him to help him purchase Zhao Wu's sets of furniture that are emerging one after another. Of course, the "new pursuit" behavior of the countries quickly filled Zhao Wu's wallet, giving Zhao Wu more money to innovate technology and arm himself.

Of course, the piracy of these furniture is also very serious, because in terms of furniture making technology, there is not much difference in craftsmen in this era. What Zhao's craftsmen can do, can be done by skilled craftsmen from other countries when they see the appearance of furniture, although it takes several months. This has caused Zhao Wu's furniture sales to always be single-digit. In a country, a set of furniture will be sold in a few months. In any country, all carpenters in any country will make the furniture. Of course, they can only make one type of furniture. This forces Zhao Wu to speed up the update speed and continuously launch new products... Well, is there fewer furniture styles that a modern person has seen?

There is no technical threshold on wooden tools, which makes Zhao unable to take the largest commodity as his fist products. The ancients did not have trademark awareness, and Zhao Wu could not take his own products and explain one by one, "My product quality..." - Did the ancients know the word quality?

To this end, the Zhao family had to look for another pillar industry - textile, which has now become Zhao's strength.

Since Sun Lin's father sent the weaver as promised, Zhao's craftsmen transformed their own weaver, and all the fine velvet cloths produced were sold to Qi State by Sun Lin's father. Only the "wool" cloth was sold to Jin State. Of course, the Dukes and Ministers of Jin State did not know that this soft velvet cloth was from Zhao Wu. Some of the Dukes and Ministers of Jin State had a special friendship with Sun Lin's father, asking him to help buy Zhao Wu's fine velvet cloth from Qi State and take it back to show off, which caused Zhiji to laugh at home.

In terms of wall blankets and wall felts, Zhao Wu also made a big breakthrough here... Thinking of this, Zhao Wu felt heartbroken - the woven wall felts dyed with gorgeous colors, and the best products were selected by Zhiji as his collection and used to hang them throughout the yard, making every room in the manor look magnificent...

Due to the development of the textile industry, the breeding industry in Zhaowu's territory also achieved significant development. With the help of the rich profits exchanged for weaving, Dongguoli has organized two caravans, one heading north, bypassing Huocheng and entering the Rong people's area, buying live sheep, cattle and horses from the Rong people, and the other entering the Jia family, exploring the way forward and trading with the local Di people. In order to protect these two caravans, Wu Qing and Wu Lian, who are familiar with the mountains and forests, were also sent out to follow the caravans.

That autumn, Zhao Wu's wife finally got pregnant. Strangely, it was Ji Zhongzhang who became pregnant first. Next was Zhi Ji. Even Zhao Qiaoren had signs of pregnancy, but Xun Ji, who had been entangled with Zhao Wu all day, did not move at all.

Taking advantage of the good news that his wife was pregnant, at the end of the autumn of that year, Zhao Wu took back his mother Zhao Zhuangji to take care of the two pregnant ladies. The day when Zhao Zhuangji arrived was the day when the first batch of products of Zhao's paper mill was successfully trial-making. So Zhiji hesitated for a long time and decided not to go out to greet him in person, and hid at home on the pretext of getting pregnant.
