Chapter 397 Better Than Silk

It has been four months since the battle against Gogurye. When it was past, the weather was sunny and the weather was just right, but when it came back, the weather had become colder.

When I returned to Gaimu City, the first snow fell in the sky and the weather became extremely cold.

People like Fang Jun and Jinyang are fine, they can wear mink fur, but ordinary soldiers suffer more. There are not many clothes that can keep warm in the Tang Dynasty, that is, some animal hair and some paper confetti.

In such weather, morale will be extremely low and affect the battle. There is no forage to eat in war horses, so they can only withdraw their troops.

The first snow fell down, and when I encountered a small incident on the way back from Gaimu City.

In order to please Li Shimin, an official built a greenhouse to keep warm with wood and planted vegetables that could not be grown in winter.

When these vegetables were served to Li Shimin, Li Shimin was very happy to eat and even invited Fang Jun, Li Ji and others to have a meal together.

However, when Li Shimin learned that these vegetables were planted by some people in the cold, his face immediately changed.

Fang Jun also heard about the follow-up incident. It is said that the county magistrate was demoted and exiled to the frontier.

It is naturally great to be able to grow vegetables that cannot grow in winter in winter, and it is also very happy to eat. However, Li Shimin naturally attaches great importance to it and is also seriously questioning the case.

Fang Jun and Jinyang went to inquire, and then returned to their place of residence, with a complicated expression.

"It is said that the county magistrate summoned hundreds of people to grow vegetables! He really had some confidence and wanted to seek credit from His Majesty. His Majesty was happy at that time, after all, this kind of vegetables was very rare in winter! But the county magistrate got one thing wrong, that is, there are very few military rations now! There are still many hungry civilians in the Tang Dynasty!"

"It might be fine if Liaodong was as rich as Jiangnan, but Liaodong was already relatively barren! When His Majesty heard about this, he became angry!"

Jinyang sighed and said, "This is really not something!"

"My wife thinks it shouldn't?"

"Of course it shouldn't be! I used so many people, but I ended up growing such orders. It must be a waste of money and money! If they have this skill, it would be better to do something else!" Jinyang nodded and said.

Fang Jun was stunned and smiled and said, "Although it shouldn't be, his idea is indeed right! Madam, in this case, we have to see other things. For example, in winter, vegetables that can only grow in spring! Why can it be grown? Shouldn't Madam think clearly?"

"Ah?" Jinyang was stunned.

"Since we can grow it, then maybe we can do more things! For example, when food is lacking, we can use this method to solve the food problem in winter! Although it is difficult, as long as we do enough, we can solve these problems!" Fang Jun said, shrugging again: "We can think of more things and do more! Instead of following the sky!"

Jinyang couldn't help laughing when he heard this, thought for a while, nodded and said, "My husband is right! But this is not the thing that we are imminent now, right?"

Fang Jun was stunned and immediately looked at the girl's tender face, and couldn't help but laugh: "No! The most important thing is not this! But... let's go back to Youzhou first!"

"Um!"

In fact, Fang Jun still has a lot to do, instead of really being addicted to love and love. Since he has decided to do things, he can choose to be more serious.

For example, more than 100 acres of cotton planted in Youzhou is a good choice.

Fang Jun was the first time he tried to plant that thing. It was already mature. The tenant farmers in Youzhou had already harvested them and were just waiting for Fang Jun to go back to check.

If the quality is OK, then it can be made into a cotton coat.

Fang Jun and Jinyang may not lack cotton coats in the Tang Dynasty, but some civilians need it very much, and they need things to keep warm.

Due to the snow these days, the convoy was relatively slow. It took two days to stop and wait until the snow stopped before starting again. After seven days, they finally rushed back to Youzhou.

At this time, Youzhou also became extremely cold and it was snowing. When she returned to Youzhou, Fang Jun immediately saw many people standing at the door waiting.

Some were officials coming to pick him up and welcome Li Shimin to return to the court, while others were civilians watching the fun. When they heard that Li Shimin's army had won the battle, they had already killed Pyongyang, the capital of Goguli, and were extremely excited and now they wanted to praise their merits.

Others are Fang Jun’s disciples, Chen Yunzhu, Nie Linger and others.

He saw their faces in the crowd.

After I come back, I will naturally get together with them.

Jinyang and Xiaohe also saw Chen Yunzhu and others, and couldn't help but smile: "Sister Yunzhu seems to be completely well! Such a cold day comes out. But Sister Yunzhu looks a little haggard!"

Fang Jun nodded when he saw it.

Chen Yunzhu, Nie Ling'er and others naturally would not come out of the crowd. They had a low status and could only watch from a distance.

Fang Jun was not free either, because some officials came over and he and Jinyang needed to meet.

Li Shimin did not plan to stay in Youzhou for a long time. He needed to rush back to Chang'an to handle state affairs, and Fang Jun and Jinyang probably also needed to go back.

They came out of Chang'an at the beginning of the year, and it has been more than half a year now. It is said that new situations have occurred in Chang'an and some new talents have emerged, so they want to go back and take a look.

Jinyang likes the matter of love, flowers, snow and moon, and has also collected some poems and lyrics in Chang'an to watch, but most scholars do it very ordinary.

When she picked up the poems and lyrics of these scholars and compared them with Fang Jun's poems, it was clear which one was stronger and which one was weaker.

"But we still have to go back and have a look! We can also attend the poetry meeting in Chang'an! I really want to attend it once!"

The little girl probably remembered the poetry party in Chengdu. When she heard that she was going back to Chang'an, she was extremely happy.

Fang Jun glanced at her and nodded.M.

However, there is no hurry to go back to Chang'an for the time being. They have to wait until the snow is over. They probably have to stay in Youzhou for three or four days until the matter is handled.

"Let's go see you Sister Yun Zhu later! There are still some things to deal with now!"

Jinyang nodded and smiled, "I'll ask Xiao Zi to notify Sister Yun Zhu first!"

"good!"

After returning, it is naturally important to do the important thing. The first thing is that the cotton that has been collected is piled up in the warehouse in Youzhou, and there are already several houses piled up.

Fang Jun immediately took Jinyang to check. Due to special requirements, open fires were prohibited from approaching the warehouse, and there were still several guards guarding them.

When the two of them opened the door of the warehouse, they immediately saw a huge bag of bags.

Fang Jun walked over and took off a bag, opened it, and a white thing appeared inside.

He grabbed a ball and handed it to Jinyang: "Madam, look!"

Jin Yang was surprised for a moment, took it and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Like silk!"

"Better than silk!" Fang Jun nodded and said, "Silk is not so warm. And this is extremely warm! Madam, you just need to put your hand in it! This thing is an excellent thing to keep warm!"

Jinyang and Xiaohe were a little curious, so they reached in.

"Is this planted on the ground?" Jin Yang was stunned.
