Although it is only possible, Xiao Yu cannot be sure about this.
But no matter what, this is already many times better than the forced unemployment before.
However, the source of this cotton spinning matter is...
It just happened to be Li Sheng, whom I hated the most!
This guy is not only highly trusted by Li Er in the court, but also has extremely high prestige among the people. The key is that this guy's own force is terrifying.
Damn, one of the hundreds of people in the crowd was shot in the back. Is this an arrow that can be shot by a human?
This was extremely scary for Xiao Rui, and he had no choice but to refuse.
And now Xiao Rui finds that he can't even refuse this embarrassing situation. After all...
Who allowed me to offend someone and be rude to Li Sheng in the first place? If I could be as awesome as Li Sheng, I wouldn't be like this, but the key is that I... I'm really not as good as others.
There is no problem with Xiao Rui's mentality now. Basically, in fact, it has already become a habit. But perhaps because of the influence of this negative emotion, Xiao Rui doesn't have much confidence in these bird tasks.
Although his father Xiao Yu said that these cotton spinning businesses are very critical, without this stuff, how the Xiao family will rise in the future may be a real problem.
No matter how much gold, silver, and silk the Xiao family transferred, it would still be like this.
Xiao Rui was dubious about his father's statement.
In fact, it is similar to what Xiao Yu thinks deep down, and Xiao Rui feels the same way.
Can spinning and weaving really make a profit? How much profit can you make?
It's hard to believe just thinking about it... This group is made up of women from common people's families who are not strong enough to plow the fields, but men who are strong enough to plow the fields don't know how to weave.
In fact, the ancient commodity economy was not as underdeveloped as many people think in modern times. It is very normal for a village to exchange rice for cloth and cloth for rice, but weaving cloth cannot be exchanged for enough rice. This is true.
Because of this, the tension and doubts in Xiao Rui's heart are heavier than those of his father Xiao Yu. After all, this is all caused by the big monster Li Sheng. We are now messing with Li Sheng.
It’s easy to save money on the construction of Shituoling... Is this suitable?
However, my father was very determined in this matter, and besides...
In addition, Xiao Rui himself had nothing else to do. He could only be busy with the textile factory every day, building factories, purchasing raw materials, etc., and was feeling bored and frustrated.
And the longer the days passed, the more Xiao Rui felt that his life was a complete failure.
Why do you think I provoked that monster in the first place?
Besides Xiao Rui's worries and doubts, besides self-doubt, there is another thing, that is, for almost two consecutive months, all he has been doing is building factories and purchasing raw materials.
Cotton is a material that has only become popular recently. It is purchased the most. It is expensive, difficult to transport, and costly.
The factory building is even more strange, it is actually made of precious cement - this was certainly not Xiao Rui's idea, this was what his father Xiao Yu said.
Xiao Rui didn't understand the reason for doing this at first, but he soon understood it.
The space of this factory is so large that it is completely beyond Xiao Rui's imagination. As a captain of the Forbidden Army and guarding Chang'an, of course he has had the opportunity to enter the palace, but...
The space of this factory is even much larger than the palace!
Such a large factory is naturally extraordinary, but the question arises, what is this thing used for...
Xiao Rui didn't understand why the place where weaving clothes was built so huge.
The combination of huge factories and high-priced cotton leads to the conclusion that this thing is too expensive.
To build a weaving workshop that was not originally very profitable, it was so extravagant and the money spent was simply astronomical.
Xiao Rui couldn't figure out why he spent so much money, this...
Even if weaving can make money, it will take hundreds of years to recoup such a huge expense?
This is totally a joke!
But as I said before, Xiao Rui doesn't have many choices now.
All he can do now is to get on with this matter first...or rather, get on with it.
Anyway, Xiao Rui felt that he was just fooling around because he couldn't see the use of a workshop building such a large house and purchasing so much cotton.
In fact, not only him, but also Xiao Yu was depressed and confused for a while. He didn't talk about tea or food every day, but he couldn't be far away.
Such a state.
But it’s the same as Xiao Rui.
Xiao Rui listens to his father, since he is a useless dog now... and Xiao Yu listens to Li Sheng, what else?
Xiao's best girl was given to others, and Xiao's money was also invested in Li Sheng's weird "path".
If you don't do this, what can you do? I've already boarded the pirate ship. After thinking about it, it seems that I can only do this.
Although Li Sheng did not publicize such a big event with gongs, drums and firecrackers everywhere, he still announced the news - although there was only one notice, in a relatively remote town in Chang'an City.
But Wang Jing and others still have a lot of eyes and ears. Since it is public information, there is no reason why they should not know it.
When they learned that the entire Xiao family under Xiao Yu was involved in Li Sheng's trouble, Wang Jing, Pei Ji and others were immediately frightened.
Holy shit, forced relocation is not enough, but forced labor is also required????
Isn't this too cruel?
This is what kind of human tyranny is more fierce than a tiger!
That's right, in the eyes of Wang Jing and Pei Ji's gang, this is just forced labor.
And this matter is too serious, because it is obviously not just forced labor.
Soon, Wang Jing and others gathered.
This time Xiao Yu was not in the mansion in the south of the city. Firstly, it was because he happened to go to Hangzhou at the moment, and secondly...
Because Xiao Yu is already a "sent off" person, and it is inappropriate to bring him into the circle again.
"Nowadays, the world is in bad shape. Everyone, how can we protect ourselves???"
Wang Jing got straight to the point and got straight to the point with an anxious look on his face.
"Brother Xiao and his relatives have all moved south, and they are still forced to work hard to weave cotton by the tyrant Li Er. This..."
When Wang Jing said this, Lu Changgeng, who was a bit blind on the side, said, "Brother Wang, what is cotton cloth?"
Lu Changgeng's question directly made Wang Jing choke, but then the old man Li Tiancheng on the side said with a bitter face, "Cotton is also a new thing in recent years. This thing requires a unique kind of flower to be spun.
Cloth is light, warm and strong, but not as good as silk..."
From the perspective of keeping warm, cotton can only be compared to silk, but Wang Jing and others don't need clothing to keep warm, so they certainly don't have the impression.
Lu Changgeng nodded. Now that he knows what cotton is, what about Xiao Yu's forced labor this time...
