Chapter 35 Buying Silk
Although he still didn't believe Qin Mo's words, Yang Liugen realized that this iron furnace seemed to have other uses.
"Young Master, this iron furnace..."
"Uncle Liugen, install this iron furnace for every household. It will be very comfortable to burn the fire in the room!"
"Young Master, you can't burn fire in the room anymore, it will kill people."
Yang Liugen's face turned green.
"Don't worry, no one will die."
Qin Mo patted his chest and tried to install the iron furnace. It was difficult to make a fire kang, which required blue bricks or burn-resistant cement.
He can't do it yet.
But the iron furnace can make up for this to the greatest extent.
Everyone surrounded him and was very curious.
After losing my skills, Qin Mo installed the iron furnace. It was an iron pipe made of iron sheet, which was a bit ugly, but the sealing should be fine.
He came to a village house, installed the stove in his house, lit the matches, and soon the iron stove heated up.
The temperature in the room suddenly increased.
Outside, everyone was trembling with cold, but the room was as warm as spring.
The most important thing is that the fire was so strong that there was no charcoal poisoning.
People who work hard are not fools. Every winter, people die in the room because of burning charcoal to keep warm.
So they deeply understand that burning fire in a closed room will kill people.
Qin Mo put the three pulp juice on the iron stove. After a while, the three pulp juice became hot, "Come on, Uncle Liugen, try it!"
Yang Liugen walked into the room curiously, took a sip of Sanliu, and his body immediately became warm.
In addition, the room was also high, so he took off the coat outside, "Young master, this stove can not only keep warm, but also boil water and cook, right?"
"That's right!"
Qin Mo nodded, "Put on the wall, make a hole in the top or hole in the wall, and you won't die if you shoot the cigarette, but be careful of catching a fire. It's best to wrap it in mud, and you'll have no worries!"
"Young Master, this stove..."
"First install one for every household in the village to ensure that everyone has a warm winter, and use charcoal!
The other uncle Liugen, this stove is too ugly. If you polish it carefully, my Haidilao will use it. It’s so ugly that I can’t see anyone.”
"Yes, Master!"
Yang Liugen nodded. He has now made sure that this stove will not make people feel disgusted and dizzy. Once ignited, it will keep warm and keep the fire warm, and cook with fire is absolutely practical.
After doing this, Qin Mo asked again: "How much land does our Qinzhuang have?"
"About ten thousand acres."
"Is this too poor?"
Qin Mo sighed. The ancient aristocrats were all super landlords.
Some rural wealthy people have thousands of acres.
The dignified Duke of Qin is worth ten thousand acres, which is embarrassing.
"Take me to have a look."
I followed Yang Liugen to the ground. It was the best black soil, but now it was cold and it was almost frozen.
"Uncle Liugen, dig the middle of these fields, dig a large hole on the head of each field, put a stove inside, and bury the pipes in the soil!"
Yang Liugen and others were all stunned.
"Young Master, you don't want to bake the land with the stove, do you?"
Yang Liugen advised: "It's useless. Even if the vegetables sprout, they will still be frozen to death during frost!"
"Yes, it's impossible to grow vegetables in winter!"
"You know a basket, and you all listen to this master. It's OK to do this!"
Qin Mo waved his hand and asked the villagers to go to the mountain to cut bamboo and cut long strips.
Everyone looked at Qin Mo's fancy operations and sighed for a while.
In their eyes, Qin Mo must be in trouble again.
Some radical people even said: "If this spreads, our Qin family will not be laughed to death!"
Yang Liugen's face changed when he heard this, "Shut up, if I hear you talking bad things about the young master behind my back in the future, don't blame me Yang Liugen for being polite!"
The man also knew that he had said the wrong thing and admitted his mistake repeatedly.
"I know that the young master sometimes does things absurdly, but he is still young, so it's always good to try it. When he hits a wall, he will naturally retreat!"
On this side, Yang Liugen was preaching to everyone, and on the other side, someone rushed to report, "Uncle Liugen, go and persuade the young master, the young master is planning to ask someone to buy silk!"
“Buy silk?”
Yang Liugen was stunned, "What do you want silk to do?"
"The young master said that you should wrap a layer of silk on the vegetable field so that the frost will not freeze the vegetable seedlings to death!"
Everyone almost fainted when they heard this.
How much is vegetables worth?
How expensive is silk?
One horse costs five taels, only nine meters. How many horses do I need to dress the vegetable field?
This prodigal son.
Yang Liugen ran over and saw Xiao Liuzi holding Qin Mo's thighs, "Young master, you can't sell it. Silk is for people to wear, how can you wear it for floors?"
Qin Mo was so angry that he said, "You know a basket, I want to make a lot of money!"
How expensive are vegetables in Beijing now?
Calculated by pellets.
One ounce, or even two or three ounces, are in short supply.
There are vegetables in the palace because there are hot springs in the palace.
Only when the temperature is high can the planting be carried out.
Now the whole Dajian is extremely short of vegetables.
Sometimes even the emperor could only eat radishes stored in advance, and it couldn't be stored for long, and most of the time they would eat pickled vegetables.
"Let go quickly and don't delay my young master making a lot of money!"
"Young Master, wake up!" Xiao Liuzi cried so hard that he snotted and cried. Seeing Yang Liugen coming, he hurriedly said: "Uncle Liugen, stop the young master. The young master is going to buy hundreds of silk to dress the vegetable field!"
How many hundred?
Everyone was in a hurry.
Yang Liugen hurried forward, "Young Master, stop making trouble!"
Qin Mo twitched Xiao Liuzi's head in anger, and then said to Yang Liugen: "Uncle Liugen, do you even think I'm messing around?"
Yang Liugen didn't say anything, but his expression said everything.
"I broke my stomach and took the arrowheads for Tiezhu. They all said Tiezhu was dead. Is Tiezhu dead now?"
"I asked you to build a stove. They all said that it would kill people if they were placed in a room. Are people dead?"
"I said that I can protect the seedlings by putting clothes on the ground. Do you believe it?"
Yang Liugen was really questioned by Qin Mo.
Looking at Qin Mo's Hanhan's eyes, he gritted his teeth, "Little Liuzi, let go of the young master!"
"Uncle Liugen!"
"Come here, escort the young master to the capital and buy silk!"
"Thank you, Uncle Liugen!"
Qin Mo breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that these people would not let him go.
Haidilao has no vegetables and can't make much money at all.
......
Soon, Qin Mo took the people from Qinzhuang back to the capital, spent a lot of money to buy three hundred pieces of silk and three hundred ordinary coarse cloth.
Someone asked the people in Qinzhuang what to do for buying so many silks and coarse cloths. The man accidentally said that he missed it. Soon, the news that Qin Mo was going to grow vegetables in winter spread in the capital.
