Chapter 707: Suggestions
"Huh?" His expression was a little stunned, and his heart was slightly shaken. Qu Baobao couldn't help but turn his head to look at Li Jihe, his eyes full of questions. How could the Sanyuan Liu family take those cheap things for no reason?
As the princess of Gaochang Kingdom, although she grew up in the palace since she was a child and rarely went out to observe the people's sentiments, she was just a casual answer from her father and brother on weekdays. The little girl was very familiar with this white fold.
In Gaochang, the only farm that can be planted in large areas is coarse, but not fine, weaving, not fine, and useless. The private households have a lot of harvest every year, but the money they can get is very small. There is no way to talk about self-cultivation, self-weaving, self-use, and sales, and no one is willing to spend a lot of money to collect these useless things.
If they hadn't had such a little effect of keeping cold, and could provide Gaochang people with some cheap coarse weaving cloth that they could afford, no one would be willing to spend their efforts to plant them again.
Therefore, when he heard that someone was willing to spend a lot of money and was charging white folds without limit, Qu Baby was suddenly happy, and then a deep doubt emerged in his mind.
Why?
The disadvantages of white folding are almost known to everyone. It is better to weave silkworms than hemp, and it is not as good as silk quilts than silk quilts. Even if you buy them back, it is useless. Why did their Liu Mansion do such a business that is obviously a loss-making one?
Liu Yiu, Qu Baobao knew that over the past year, the legend of the surname Liu made her ears almost calloused. If you don’t talk about him, it would be too sour. Let’s talk about the ‘Liu-style plough’ he made, the ‘Liu-style water wheel’, and the ‘Sanyuan Tea’ that has been as expensive as a thousand gold in recent months. Which one is not so clever and exquisite that it is amazing. How could such a person come to Gaochang to do these losses?
There must be something that outsiders don’t know about.
"As for why," Seeing that the girl Qu Baobao looked at him with questions as he expected, Li Jihe straightened his body and said in a voice: "How could Ji He, a small player, guess? However, Mr. Liu has always been imaginative in his work. Perhaps he has made some new achievements, and it may not be necessary."
Li Jihe was also puzzled by the fact that Liu's mansion acquired Baidiezi in large quantities. However, based on his understanding of Liu Yiuan, the "miracle doctor" and "magic craftsman", this Baidiezi incident is probably like the previous Sanyuan Tea. If it doesn't sound, it will make a big splash. However, how it sounds and how it is shocked is not something outsiders can understand.
"But these are not important either," Li Ji and Yusheng said carefully, "What's important is that people are willing to spend a lot of money now, and they have to charge white folds in your country for a long time."
"Your Highness the Princess should know more about the farming work of your country than Ji, a person outside the country," said Li Jihe: "If you have farming but less profit, if you have in but less money, you have in but less money. This white folding is not only a private household, but also a government warehouse. There should be a lot of backlog, right?"
Seeing that Qu Baobao's expression was slightly slower, Li Jihe kept saying, "It is rare that someone is willing to buy it now. No matter who he is, why is it used to collect these white folds? No matter how you say it, you can get benefits from it. This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. Why not do it?"
"But Hou Junji ordered to take down the people with his own selfishness, and cut off the rare financial path of Gaochang. What was his mind?" Seeing the opportunity, whether it was useful or not, Li Jihe didn't mind splashing more dirty water on Hou Junji: "To put it nicely, he is avenging his private revenge, to put it bluntly, he is an obstacle to the country, and his heart is punishable!"
"Rareless! How can I, the general of Gaochang Kingdom, allow you, a small rancher, to slander like this?!" Hearing Li Jihe's words, the little girl suddenly sat up from the chair and scolded Leng Yan.
"Your Highness the Princess is right, but don't forget your princess. Hou Junji was once a citizen of my Tang Dynasty." There was no fear on his face. Li Jihe smiled indifferently, letting the scars on his face tremble. He looked up at Qu Baobao indifferently, and then deliberately whispered softly to remind the little girl.
"Okay, I'm tired. If Master Ji finished speaking, please leave by yourself!" As if he had not heard Li Jihe's words, Qu Baobao ran away as soon as he rang out, carrying his body on his back, and no longer cared about Li Jihe.
"In this way, Ji will not disturb you anymore, let's say goodbye first!" Li Jihe bowed to Baby Qu, and Li Jihe Qing left the door. When he arrived at the door, Li Jihe suddenly replied, "I think now, the guards sent by the princess have arrived at the place. In a few days, our young master Helan should be sent to His Highness to the princess. I hope that by then, His Highness can remember Ji's words today, and don't let the king do anything wrong in anger."
After saying that, before Baby Qu could react in the room, she winked at the two maids who were guarding outside and signaled them to go back to the room to serve. Li Jihe started to leave the courtyard.
The next morning, when Liu Yi was about to enter the palace to explore the bottom of Empress Changsun of Lizheng Hall, outside the Luo Mansion, the manager Chen Mingze and the maid Xiaoxi and others arrived.
There were four pairs of soft and refreshing new quilt covers with them. Li Dechen and Weng Yu took off their bullets overnight. The maid and the mother-in-law rushed out of the seam covers. If it weren't for the four pairs of quilt covers, Chen Mingze and Xiaoxi would have arrived last night.
"Have you seen the young master!" "Have you seen the young master!"
Seeing their young master right in front of him, the two of them all stepped forward and bent over to greet him, one calm and one nervous and happy.
"Well, get up." Liu Yi nodded slightly, and turned his gaze to Chen Mingze, who had been lame because of the incident of Hou Junji. He was neither humble nor arrogant, and had a calm expression. After more than a year of training, this middle-aged man who had been a little nervous and disorderly when he saw him also had a certain climate and had the appearance and demeanor of being in charge.
"Butler Liu just returned yesterday, why are you here again today?" He sat down in the main hall with his knees and drank the hot tea in the cup. Liu Yi looked up and asked Chen Mingze, but what happened at home?
"Young Master, please wait a moment," Chen Ming bowed, then turned around and waved at the two servants who were accompanying him, signaling them to carry the things they brought into the hall. Jier bowed and replied to their young master: "Young Master, look, this is the gift brought by the butler Wu Chen and the villain to the young master and the wife. All the servants in the mansion made it out overnight."
"Quilt?" Liu Yiyi stood up from the seat and took two steps slowly. When he reached the four pairs of quilts, he couldn't help but stretch out his hands on the quilt. The long-lost comfort and softness appeared in his hands again.
"The utensils made by Yuan Fang have been made?" Liu Yiu was a little unbelievable. In less than a day, the mansion had already made the molded quilts. This was too fast. If he remembered it well, when Liu Wuchen came the day before yesterday, didn't he say that Yuan Fang had still been disturbed?
"Reply to the young master," Chen Mingze bowed and replied, "On the afternoon of the day when Butler Wuchen returned to the mansion, Mr. Yuan sent all the utensils to the mansion. After trial and inspection by Butler Wuchen and Li Dechen, there was no major problem. When the villain came, Mr. Wuchen asked Mr. Yuan to customize ten sets. I think it will take a few days to process and produce the white folds in our mansion in large quantities."
As Liu Wuchen was in charge of tea production for a period of time, Chen Mingze's words were organized and contaminated with some modern flavors. Small words such as "batch", "processing" and "production" began to come out of his mouth naturally.
"Well, Butler Wuchen is doing well. Since the equipment is complete, it is time for our mansion to start processing the cotton." He nodded slightly, and had no objection to Liu Wuchen's approach. He heard Chen Mingze's words just now, and knew that he had thought there was something wrong to report. Liu Yiuan patted the soft quilt in front of him, and looked at Xiao Xi, a maid who had never spoken since he came in. Then he waved his hand and sent Xiao Xi and the two people who were holding the quilt together, and asked them to report and serve him at Lao Liu and Chuchu.
"Okay, there are no outsiders here. Just say anything if you have anything to say." When Xiaoxi and the others went out, Liu Yiu sat down again, picked up the tea bowl and gently blew the tea in the bowl twice, then looked up and said to Chen Mingze.
"Yes, young master!" I knew that I could not hide the eyes of their young master, so Chen Ming was not surprised by Liu Yi's words at all. Instead, he bowed calmly to reply to their young master: "At noon yesterday, news came from the northwest that we were responsible for collecting Manager Liu in Gaochang, and something happened."
"Oh?" The tea bowl that had just been put to his mouth was put down again. Liu Yi raised his brows, raised his head again, and said softly: "What's going on? What happened to Chongzhou's side where he was in charge of the affairs?"
"Reply to the young master," Chen Mingze dared not hide anything, and said bluntly: "It was said that he was taken up by the military personnel of Gaochang State. It was an order from the old man Hou Junji."
"Hou Junji? No wonder..." Liu Yi nodded lightly with clarity, raised his glass and drank it, and didn't say anything for a long time.
Hou Junji and their Liu Mansion, to be precise, were already called mortal enemies with him. After knowing that Liu Chongzhou was a member of the Liu Mansion, the old man would take action, which was not surprising at all. In fact, before preparing to do this business, Liu Yi had already expected it and made corresponding arrangements.
Now I only hope that the things that Liu Chongzhou did in Gaochang before could play some role, making Hou Junji afraid and dare not take Chongzhou's life at will.
