Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 737
White sandy beaches, blue sea water, and plants that no one knows on the shore.

However, [-]% of the guests on the boat were not in the mood to look at the scenery. They all sat down behind the stones and just panted. This finally felt like they were stepping on the solid ground.

Liu Mu has already changed all of his clothes. He will be wearing a linen vest, wide flowered linen trousers, and straw shoes.

Baoqin and the others also have clothes worn in this tropical area. After all, they have been playing in Halong Bay for several months, so they have already prepared.

On the contrary, when I came out from Hangzhou, I was wearing thick clothes in early spring. The guests who lost their clothes along the way, all the silk clothes stuck to their bodies, let the sea breeze blow for a while before they felt more comfortable.

Willow, with her hands behind her back, looked at the trees on the bank.Suddenly he shouted: "Hold the qin and ask someone to knock down the fruit from that tree."

Fighting seems not easy.

Instead, a personal guard quickly climbed up the tree, and then chopped a few times with a knife, and a large pile of coconuts fell to the ground.

Liu Mu went over to pick one up, chopped it with a knife, then took out a military thorn from the bodyguard and stabbed it hard, then inserted a bamboo tube that had been prepared a long time ago, tasted it, and handed it to Baoqin: "Taste Taste it, this is the real coconut juice, the original taste is guaranteed, and it is still cooked."

Baoqin is more measured than willow, so he immediately ordered the guards to prepare it like this, and then sent it to the elders of the Seventh Family.

After seeing the elders of the Seventh Family holding coconuts in surprise, Baoqin said: "Mr. Lang, we must not be rude."

Liu Mu nodded heavily: "Because I'm happy, I don't know why, pay attention next time, pay attention next time."

There are two brothers from the Cui family, Cui Yuan and Cui Hong.After drinking the coconut juice, he found a knife and was chopping the coconut vigorously. The juniors wanted to help, but they refused. After chopping it hard by themselves, they dug out a piece of snow-white coconut meat with a knife and bit it in their mouths. took a bite.

That's not counting, I chopped off the coconut shell again, and tried the palm of the coconut shell.

Cui Hong stood up and looked around.

As Liu Mu said, there are countless coconut trees on the shore.

At this time, Liu Mu had dragged over a piece of abaca he had cut himself. This was real abaca, which was far better in variety than the one found in Jiaozhou, south of Lingnan.

"Abaca, let the artisans study the rate of hemp production, and let professional people do professional things. Are the two Mr. Cui interested in taking a walk deep in the mountains and forests, maybe you can pick up a dog's head What about gold?"

"Tomorrow, tomorrow. You must take a good rest on the shore today. The old bones that have gone out to sea are about to fall apart. Tomorrow, tomorrow, go to pick up gold. You can't sneak away this time." Cui Hong pressed Liu Mu's arm Let Willow be the guarantee.

Liu Mu pointed at the mountain forest: "Who knows how many poisonous snakes and beasts there are here? I dare to go in there casually. And I haven't found any suitable place to build a port here, and I haven't seen any local natives. There are still things to do." a lot of."

"No, once we found it, we immediately organized people to start cutting abaca. I've heard of this thing before. In Lingnan, after the abaca is cut, it will grow back the next year. It's really like grass. There are countless here, so let's Cut it piece by piece, and then wait for the place where it was cut to grow back, and it will never be finished."

"Yes, that's it."

Liu Mu and Cui Hong laughed together.

At this time, Cui Yiye was holding a coconut, and while drinking coconut juice, he said to Liu Mu with a smile on his face: "You put us all in this business."

Liu Mu didn't understand: "How do you say it?"

"In a word, no one dares to do this business. It's better to report to the Ministry of Households and the Ministry of Industry. I just had a preliminary look with a few craftsmen, and the craftsmen will give an accurate answer in three days. Just say that right now, as you said , The part of the hemp outer sheath is made of high-quality weaving hemp, and rope can also be used, which is much stronger than the hemp in the Central Plains."

"It hasn't been done yet, how can you be sure?" Liu Mujin said that the test must wait until the actual processing is completed.

Cui Yiye pointed to the busy craftsmen over there: "That one has not been dealing with hemp for decades, I trust their vision in this regard. As you said, professional things are reliable for professional people."

Willow shrugged.

Cui Yiye said again: "The heart hemp is very thin and soft. An old craftsman said something amazing. He said that the inner hemp (called the inner fiber in modern language) can directly weave fine linen without spinning. If it is finely processed, I am afraid it is the best linen, and there is no better linen than this."

"Of course, this is so numb." Liu Mu agreed with this.

Cui Yiye pointed at the surroundings: "Inexhaustible, this business is so big that there is no limit. I am a small Huating county magistrate, you want to build the linen workshop in my Huating county, I... feel unable to support it."

Cui Yiye's two grandfathers also came back to their senses at this time.

I am happy to patronize, but I will think about the scale of this workshop again. The business is really too big, enough to affect the hemp industry of the entire Tang Dynasty. This matter really needs to be ruled by the court before it can let go.

Liu Mu also understood, and immediately said: "Yiye, this hemp will not impact the Tang Dynasty's hemp industry. I will take it out and transport it all to Wa Island, Peninsula, and Jiaozhou for sale."

Cui Yiye tilted his head: "Ha, ha ha, ha ha ha."

This smile is as fake as possible.

After laughing, Cui Yiye said: "My son-in-law Liu, Duke Wu. This hemp plus your iron donkey, I am afraid that the price of the super soft and comfortable super linen is half lower than the current Tang's linen, and it is twice as good. Tell me Me, you didn’t sell this good thing to the people of Tang Dynasty, but gave it to Wajima, do you want the impeachment watch to crush me to death?”

What Liu Muxin said was right, the cheap and high-quality linen was not sold to Datang, but to Wodao.

This matter is indeed a trouble.

"We have a solution, but it's best to let the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households send people to coordinate. I dare say that within two years, no one in Datang will use the original jute and ramie materials. Maybe It is also a small purpose, but it is definitely not the mainstream, so I suggest, don’t build a weaving workshop, just build a yarn workshop.”

Cui Yiye's words made Liu Mu ponder.

Industrial conflicts, Datang people have already thought of such high-end economic knowledge as industrial shocks, and they are indeed children of famous families.

Cui Yiye's words were reasonable, not because he was afraid of trouble from Chang'an, but because Chang'an sent people to coordinate the matter.

Liu Mu nodded: "You are clever."

"It's far worse than you. It is estimated that if you are asked to fix this matter, countless workshops will cry to death overnight, and then you will use the money to pick out excellent support. You can do this once. If you do it more times Also tired."

After Cui Yiye finished speaking, Liu Mu immediately said, "You scold me."
