This fat man has learned bad things from Yanei. He doesn't even know how to communicate with the most basic human beings, and he just drags and drags.%
However, with this move, Li Qi really had no choice but to ask Mrs. Chen to tell Liu Yunxi that he was going to Zhou's house and might have to come back later. He was still thinking, if these clothes are ordinary, you fat man will
Dead.
When they arrived at Zhou's house, Zhou Qing and others saw Li Qi and hurriedly stood up to greet him. They cupped their hands and said, "Zhou Qing has seen the Privy Council envoy."
Li Qi returned the gesture with a cupped hand.
Zhou Qing suddenly glared at Zhou Hua and said: "Bad boy, I asked you to ask the Privy Councilor if he is at home. How dare you bother the Privy Councilor to come in person? Are you looking for a beating?"
Zhou Hua said hurriedly: "Dad, this is a waste of time, so I invited Brother Li here."
Li Qi was very curious when he heard this. He thought to himself, could it be that Zhou Qing asked me to come here? He asked, "Executive member Zhou, what on earth is going on?"
Zhou Qing explained: "The thing is like this. Recently, my textile workshop has come up with a new material. Today I heard that the Privy Councilor is taking a day off, so I went to visit in person in the morning. Unexpectedly, the doorman said that the Privy Councilor has gone out.
Just now I asked Niezi to see if the Privy Councilor had gone home, but I never thought that Niezi would invite the Privy Councilor over. I'm really sorry, sorry."
Li Qi glanced at Zhou Hua, who quickly turned his head and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Sanlang is just a little impatient. Anyway, it's the same if you go and I come. This trip is indispensable, and besides, it's been a long time since I came."
I didn’t come over to take a look, so I just happened to come and take a look today.”
Zhou Qing smiled and nodded, stretched out his hand and said: "Privy Envoy, please sit inside quickly."
Several people came to the hall and sat down.
The servants served the fragrant tea. This Zhou Qing was originally named a great doctor by Song Huizong. Although this was just an honor and had no practicality, not even a salary, but this standard came up. He could enjoy treatment that ordinary businessmen could not enjoy.
Enjoy it, the simplest thing is that the door can be made higher and the house can be built bigger.
Li Qi had indeed not been here for a long time. He looked around and said with a smile, "It seems that Zhou Yuanwai has been enjoying a good life recently."
Zhou Hua said: "My father has been doing this for ten years and he doesn't enjoy it at all."
"Niezi, do you want to make me angry to death?"
Zhou Qing slapped the table and glared at Zhou Hua.
Zhou Hua immediately shrank into a ball of flesh and trembled all over.
I dare not say that everyone in the Song Dynasty was filial. But most people were very filial, because the Song Dynasty always advocated filial piety first, which is also the basic idea of Confucianism. No matter how good you are, you will always be your father. As long as you don’t
If you die, then you have to listen to what you say. Just like the children of later generations, their parents started to talk back if they didn't say a word correctly. They even called it a rebellious period. This was completely impossible in the Song Dynasty. So really
Will be beaten to death.
Gao Yanei and Wang Xuanen are quite bastards. But in front of their father, they all behave like cats and dare not say a word.
Hong Tianjiu can be said to be the most naughty, but that's because he is the only one of the ninth generation. There are also Qi Gong guarding him, but even so, if Uncle Ba Jin really gets angry, he will be chased and beaten with a stick.
, Fortunately, Hong Tianjiu has experienced hundreds of battles, and his ability to resist beatings has exceeded the limits of human beings. He is really an immortal little strong person. After fighting today, he will be back to his original shape tomorrow. You can play how you want.
Li Qi laughed a few times, thinking that his success was not due to luck, but that they had the basic qualities for success.
In fact, as a successful entrepreneur, their life is actually very economical. One piece of clothing can last for several years, because a truly successful businessman thinks about making money in any aspect. As long as the clothes can be worn and the food is enough,
That's it. Extravagance is waste and loss, so they are also very economical in life. Only by maintaining this mentality at all times can they move to the next level. Money that shouldn't be spent will not be spent at all.
Spend more, and it is their son who spends the money. This is not stingy, but the most basic quality of a businessman, maximizing the value of every penny.
Li Qi saw that Zhou Hua was going crazy with epilepsy, so he changed the subject and said, "By the way, officer, those new clothes you mentioned?"
"Yes, yes, I almost forgot about this."
Zhou Qing waved his hand and said to the people below: "You all can go down."
"yes."
It's so serious. Is there really any treasure? Li Qi's curiosity arose.
Zhou Qing said to Zhou Hua again: "Why don't you quickly take it out and show it to the Privy Councilor?"
"yes."
Zhou Hua immediately ran to the back room, and soon he came to Li Qi holding a mahogany box.
Li Qi couldn't help but stand up when he looked at such an exquisite and precious wooden box, thinking to himself, could it be that it contains the Celestial Silkworm Armor? This could be possible.
But when Zhou Hua opened the wooden box, there was a very ordinary white top inside.
Li Qi glanced at Zhou Hua suspiciously, and saw a hint of pride in the fat man's eyes, as if he was saying, "What? Brother, you can't see the key to this."
Sample! Li Qi secretly thought and took out this top from the wooden box. As soon as he took it, he immediately felt that it was very special. He felt that the material of this top was very slender, light, soft and smooth.
This feeling seemed familiar! Li Qi raised his eyebrows and pulled it slightly, but felt full of elasticity, and immediately exclaimed: "Cashmere sweater?"
"Cashmere sweater?"
Zhou Hua was stunned for a moment, then said in surprise: "Brother, you are really amazing. You can tell it is made of wool just by touching it."
Are you kidding me?
A big bead of sweat fell on Li Qi's temples.
Zhou Qing exclaimed: "The Privy Council has really good sense. This coat is indeed made of wool. The winters in recent years have been very cold. Ordinary materials are difficult to keep out the cold. If you wear them too much, they will become very bulky and inconvenient to move. Therefore,
I have been wondering if I could find warmer materials to make clothes. Just last year, a Mongolian man came to me wearing a sheepskin fur to buy some goods. I saw that he didn't seem to be afraid of the cold at all, so I borrowed him.
After looking at the sheepskin fur on my body, I found that wool can actually keep out the cold very well, so I wanted to try spinning this wool into cloth to make clothes. I have also tried many kinds of wool. Privy Council gives you the sheep's wool that can best keep out the cold.
Yes, it’s the layer on the goat’s skin.”
The commonly used fabrics in ancient times were linen and silk. With the development of foreign trade, cotton had already been introduced to the Song Dynasty. The word "cotton" first appeared in the Song Dynasty. In the past, it was cotton, which caused the cotton weaving industry to have a great development.
big development.
The textile industry in the Song Dynasty was already very developed, and textile machines made great progress. Coupled with the arrival of Li Qi, he brought the concept of sewing machines, which led to another big step forward for textile machines. If
If you want to make a breakthrough again, I'm afraid you have to wait for the emergence of industrial textile machines, so it is easy to use wool textiles with current technology.
Zhou Hua said excitedly: "Brother, try it on. It's very warm, very light, and very comfortable to wear."
"Thank you, I---I can feel it." Li Qi nodded slightly, but his eyes were very complicated.
Zhou Qing saw a change in Li Qi's expression and asked, "Privy Envoy, is there anything wrong with these clothes? If so, Privy Envoy can point it out."
It’s inappropriate! It’s hugely inappropriate!
I have just embarked on the road of market economy. You want to start the land enclosure movement for me immediately. This is developing too fast, but it can be seen that this interest is indeed the root cause of all development.
Li Qike graduated from the Department of Finance. How could he not have heard the story of "sheep eating people"? The germ of capitalism came from this sheep, because the famous enclosure movement in the history of human revolution was caused by sheep.
At that time, wool was rising in Europe and became a symbol of nobility. Its profits were much higher than those from food, so raising sheep became the mainstream of the economy. Often, the income from 10 acres of pasture was more than 20 acres of arable land.
At that time, it was the process of the disintegration of the slavery system. The new aristocratic landowners began to drive out the farmers, occupy the land, and use it to raise sheep. This broke the form of lease and began to enter the market economy, that is, free buying and selling, and the highest bidder gets it.
From then on, the royal power gradually declined, and capitalists began to emerge and take control of the country.
After the capitalists won, they legalized the land enclosure. However, farmers did not have the money to enclosure the land, so they could only sell the land to the capitalists, which further expanded the land enclosure movement and led to an agricultural technological revolution.
The West has truly begun to enter the era of capital.
Therefore, the enclosure movement has always had mixed reviews in history. Although the enclosure movement caused countless farmers to lose their land and become homeless, it also brought mankind into a more advanced era and triggered the industrial revolution.
However, due to the arrival of Li Qi, this cashmere sweater appeared in the Song Dynasty in advance. This was a very difficult problem. Although China's emperor's highly centralized system, it is difficult for Western-style enclosure movements to occur.
But no matter what, this cashmere sweater contains endless profits, and the imperial court has just opened up the market economy. Once this cashmere sweater emerges, huge profits will turn a large amount of cultivated land into pasture.
This will directly shake the foundation of the country. The imperial court will definitely choose to forcibly suppress the market economy and end this enclosure movement, which may lead to the complete collapse of Li Qi's entire economic construction. Of course, if businessmen can win from this movement, then the situation will be different.
Completely unpredictable.
Don't underestimate this wool. If it is not handled properly, it may cause chaos in the world.
"Privy Envoy, Privy Envoy."
Seeing Li Qi's silence, Zhou Qing began to feel a little frightened, so he shouted softly a few times.
Li Qi was startled for a moment and suddenly asked: "Who else knows about this cashmere sweater?"
When Zhou Qing heard this, he immediately panicked and said in a trembling voice: "Privy--Privy Envoy, I--have I caused a big disaster?"
"It's not that serious." Li Qi didn't want to explain too much and asked: "Tell me quickly, who else knows about this cashmere sweater?"
Zhou Qing said with sweat on his face: "It's just our family and a few textile craftsmen."
Li Qi frowned and said, "Only a few textile craftsmen know?"
Zhou Qingdao: "Yes, this technology is our foothold now. We businessmen are learning from you, the Privy Council, to protect this technology and prevent leaks. Since this cashmere sweater is still under research, I just found a few
A trustworthy craftsman secretly studied it, but not many people know about it now."
"It would be okay if that were the case."
Li Qi let out a breath and saw Zhou Qing looking at him in horror, hehe said: "Commissioners, please rest assured that this matter has nothing to do with you and will not affect you. However, you must remember,
Don’t let this news leak out for the time being, otherwise it will cause big trouble. You have to explain it to those craftsmen and don’t let it out. Hurry up and get me all those cashmere sweaters.” (
