The imperial decree commended Changping Township for its great contribution to disaster relief and restoration of production, and specially granted a mansion with one hundred taels of gold.

Gold again?There is a lot of gold in this imperial court.

Eunuch Xiao handed over a list and said with a smile: "The Holy Majesty has other rewards for the Xiangjun, please check and accept them."

Naturally, the reward was another ten boxes.

Zhang Ci invited Eunuch Xiao and others into the mansion for tea, and Chen Fan went to prepare some things.

Eunuch Xiao put a small box on the table and said, "This is the house deed and the token, please keep it safe. Next year on the birthday of the Holy Lord, please come to the Xiangjun Mansion for a banquet."

The chapter's speech should be: "Please convey our respect to the Holy Father, and wish him great blessings and prosperity in the sky, and wish me great prosperity forever."

An embroidered lady came in, and Zhang Ci said: "This township is making cotton clothes, and my father-in-law came by coincidence. Let embroidered lady make a dress for my father-in-law today."

Eunuch Xiao was naturally happy, Xiu Niang quickly measured the size and withdrew.

Eunuch Xiao said cheerfully: "My Majesty likes the Jibei that I sent over a while ago, and also likes the name cotton very much. The House of Internal Affairs in the Palace has arranged for craftsmen to learn how to make quilts. The Majesty's quilts are warm and comfortable. Sacred Heart Very happy."

Zhang Ci smiled and said: "Eunuch Xiao has worked hard all the way, I hope that the two quilts can make Eunuch Xiao sleep more comfortably."

Eunuch Xiao was overjoyed: "Thank you Mr. Xiang and Mr. Zhang."

A decree was sent to give a reward, and a big ship came. Chen Fan felt sorry for the size of the ship without preparing more things.

Changping Township planted a lot of glutinous rice this year, and sent some after the autumn harvest. This time, another [-] catties were packed.All kinds of beans, vegetables, and pots and jars take up a lot of space, plus quilts, and a load of gift boxes, they have to be moved many times when they arrive in the capital.

The goods were all moved to the ship, and Mr. Xiao's cotton was also ready.

"The embroidered lady in the house is really neat." Eunuch Xiao boasted, and cheerfully changed into cotton clothes, feeling warm all over.

"It's really warm." He was delighted.

When the big ship left, the reward was carried into the main house.After completing the registration, Chen Fan asked the children to choose two favorites.

The children each chose a calligraphy and painting work, and they are not very interested in jewelry. They don't need much jewelry at this age.But Chen Fan asked each of them to choose, saying that it could be kept as a dowry or dowry.

Chen Ya smiled and said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry. It won't run away in the warehouse. Let us choose and we have to take care of it."

Chen Fan said with a smile: "It is to learn to take care of your own property."

The children nodded and carefully selected jewelry and fabrics.

"Just now I said no, but now I'm choosing so seriously, it seems like someone has someone in my heart. Brothers, does anyone want me to propose a marriage?"

Several boys gave their hands a pause, and Chen Zhongyan acted as their mouthpiece: "It's the elder sister who asked us to choose the gift, and it's the elder sister who made fun of us. It's too difficult for us."

"Ah, the seventh brother can also say such cute words?" Chen Fan blinked his sleepy eyes, and Chen Zhongyan blushed.

Chen Ya smiled and said, "Brother Qi is so cute when he blushes."

Chen Zhongyan glared at her and blushed even more.

People in the capital were attracted by a group of porters.They all carried a pair of baskets, piled high with white and fluffy cotton, which brought warmth in the slightly cold early winter.

"It's so interesting, I want to touch it just looking at it."

"It must be very soft."

"I heard that this is Jibei, which is now called cotton. This thing is precious, and now only dignitaries can afford it?"

"Changping Township planted it successfully last year, and every household is planting it this year. When we sent rice to Beijing last time, we sent a lot of cotton and seeds, and we will be able to promote planting next year. Maybe we will be able to afford it soon."

"It's Changping Township again, and the crops can always be grown so well."

"Isn't that right? All the south has been planted with high-yield rice, and the food in my court has been abundant at once. Wheat has also made many fields in the north high-yield."

"There is also credit for disaster relief."

There are two quilts on an open carriage, making people look like they want to lie on them.The crowd watched and discussed, and some people followed all the way to Changhe Buzhuang.

A 1.2-meter-wide bed frame was built in front of Changhe Buzhuang, and many people looked around curiously.

After spreading the quilt, the clerk smiled and said to everyone: "Everyone can touch and press this quilt, but you can't pick it, otherwise the cotton will run away."

A row of hangers was pushed out, and a row of cotton clothes hung on it.

"You can try on these cotton clothes. Feel the warmth that cotton brings to everyone."

The brave ones immediately took out a set of cotton clothes and put them on, and everyone opened their eyes wide in anticipation.

"It's really warm." Those people were overjoyed.

What should I do if I can't bear to take it off?
Reluctantly taking off their cotton coats, they immediately felt the cold and shrank back.

The news of the cotton-padded quilt spread everywhere, and soon everyone in the capital knew about it.Everyone reacted differently.

The family of the empress in the harem knows how good the quilt is.Although the high-ranking ones can cover them with silk quilts, the thickness of the quilts gave them a different sense of security. They felt that they were all wrapped up, which made them feel more like winter.The concubines with lower ranks are more fond of it. In the past, they often felt cold in winter. Now that they have quilts, the cold and loneliness seem to be isolated.

When they heard that the cloth shop had quilts, they sent people over to buy them without hesitation.Some people want to try the effect, and they also send people to buy quilts, make a bed, and build a bed.After sleeping for two days, I decided to restock.

Seeing these people sweeping up a large number of goods, those who took a wait-and-see attitude also rushed to buy goods, for fear that they would not be able to buy them too late.Sleeping for two days, I think it's worth it.

In just one week, the quilts at Buzhuang were out of stock.

Those who shot late can only regret secretly.

The cotton quilt is used well, and everyone wants to try cotton clothes.Buzhuangli is full of guests every day, which makes many aristocratic families envy and hate.

"I never imagined that a small Changping Township could grow so much cotton and make quilts and cotton clothes so well."

"In the past, we had to purchase goods from far away. Although we sold them at a high price, the cost was huge. As expected, it is the most reliable to produce by ourselves." Those who had these thoughts went to buy cotton seeds and planting books.

Chen Yue's Four Seasons Fresh Agricultural Products Store has started the business of Bo cotton seeds, and Mrs. Feng's study book business is also booming, and has received envy and hatred from several companies.

The crown princess's mother, Lu Shi, entered the palace and talked about these things with her daughter.

"I didn't expect that Changping Township could make so much money." Lu Jinqiao was a little sour, "Chen Liangdi's dowry must be very generous in the future."

The concubine smiled lightly and poured tea: "If Changping Township hadn't had food and money, the Holy Majesty would have given him a marriage?"

"That's what I said, but Emperor Liang is rich, so the crown prince will give some face to Changping Township and go to Emperor Liang's place more often." Lu Jinqiao was displeased.She didn't care about it before, but as Changping Township became more and more popular, she began to worry.

The crown prince's expression remained unchanged: "How many women are there in father's back house? When did mother get anxious? According to regulations, there are dozens of women in the East Palace. If I worry about it all, wouldn't it mean that I don't think about eating and drinking every day? The female relatives came to the East Palace just for power." She didn't say anything, she sat on this seat for the family power.

Lu Jinqiao was startled, and said, "How many people in the East Palace have used quilts?"
