Three Kingdoms: Everything Can Be Gamified

Chapter 215 News of Cotton

Zhang Fei is very smart. On the way home, Zhang He recalled what he had said, and probably understood what he wanted to express.

First of all, there are so many skills in the air, and the technology must be passed on anyway.

No matter how interesting these things are, they are not serious business. If others can learn it, they should pass it on and let others do it.

The second is that whimsy is okay, but it must be realistic.

Some things you think are fun, but are not realistic.

That being the case, don't waste so much time, you are no longer a child.

In the end, you need to spend money to make money, and it is reasonable to spend all of it, so as not to worry about others, especially when you earn more and more.

Zhang He felt that it was a bit unnecessary. The two brothers had something to say, and they didn't usually see you be so obtrusive...

Maybe there is some resentment?
The Zhang family is doing the best by themselves now, Zhang Fei is still the captain, not only Zhang Fei, Guan Yu and Tai Shici are similar.

This poor status may make them somewhat unbalanced.

At dinner time, I had to feel a little bit about it.

"Husband, those who are able do more work. Besides, this is not a job. Have you given them a chance to show off?" Zou Yu immediately retorted.

The problem is that the husband is not doing his job properly, but he still has the energy to make continuous achievements. This is the core of the problem.

If you don't fight abroad now, the chances of being promoted through military exploits will be reduced.

On the contrary, if you get political achievements, it is also a credit for stability.

Whether it is Liu Bei or the court, there is no way to sit back and watch one person make the management flourish, but pretend to turn a blind eye.

There was no other way, but Zhang He could only be promoted continuously, surpassing the other three brothers unconsciously. After all, they were pure warriors.

"After all, it's impossible for my husband to keep a low profile." Cai Yan laughed.

Zhang He really doesn't like the kind of days when he goes to the Yamen at regular intervals and goes home at the next o'clock, and reads books and practice martial arts in his spare time.

There are too few leisure programs in this era, and it is impossible to make people exercise when you are free.

Zhang He can only carry out the traditional spirit of the Chinese people: Since there is no such environment, such an environment should be transformed.

"Spending money, right?" Zhang He thought for a while, "There is indeed something I really want to get recently..."

The girls couldn't help but look over, after all, Zhang He rarely wanted anything in particular.

The main thing is to tell Zou Yu what he wants, and he can make it by himself if he gathers the materials together.

"I plan to form an expedition team to go all the way from the Western Regions to find a plant called cotton." Zhang He said.

These days, the high-end cloth is silk, and the inferior ones are furs. Of course, there are also furs of different grades, and the high-end ones are more expensive than silk.

The low-level ones are naturally hemp and Gebu. Cotton has not been introduced to China yet, and it is said that it was only introduced in the Northern and Southern Dynasties.

It is also possible that it has been introduced, but it has not been popularized, and there may be one in the Western Regions.

Of course, Indian cotton is definitely not as good as American cotton fibers, but there is no choice at this stage.

Otherwise, it’s just hemp. Who doesn’t know that the fiber of sisal is better?
Not to mention the chili pepper, Zhang He traveled so long that he almost forgot what the chili tasted like.

Even if he has a plug-in that can turn everything into a game, it is impossible to make these crops out of thin air.

I even thought about finding a special time to go to India or America to bring back the crops...

Thinking about it later, I was probably stunned at the time.

The girls were curious about what the cotton looked like, so Zhang He used the game to draw the cotton in his memory.

"You don't need to look for this thing!" Zou Yu looked at it, "I remember that there are a few plants in Wuwei."

Which family in Wuwei can make you remember so deeply, after all, isn’t it the Zhang family in Wuwei!
Zhang He really didn't expect that Zhang Ji's family actually grew cotton.

"But after flowering, the kind that is white and fluffy?" Zhang He confirmed again.

"Yes, it actually blooms, yellow or red. But after fruiting, it will burst into a ball of white pompon, which means a little bit of kapok fluff." Zou Yu nodded.

These days, there are also cotton-padded clothes and cotton cloths, and what we are talking about is the cotton wool contained in the kapok fruit.

Having said that, if the dwarfing of kapok trees can be realized and the fruiting rate can be improved through artificial pollination, it may not be a way to get rich.

After all, ordinary cotton can only be planted for one season, but kapok trees can be planted forever...

Zhang He suddenly felt that he had fallen into some kind of misunderstanding. Maybe cotton was not necessarily needed. Through gamification, he specially selected a group of dwarf and high-yielding kapok trees, which might also be a way out.

Since the problem already exists, it is reasonable to give priority to cotton breeding.

Anyway, tomorrow is a year, I don't even need to think about it, I know it will be very busy.

Liu Bei is like this, unless he is annoyed, whether he has an excuse or not, call him and talk about it.

If there is an excuse, fight harder.

But under normal circumstances, without a legitimate reason, he would never take the initiative to go out.

Let's talk about the current situation in this territory. Either take Yizhou in an all-round way, or go out of Xihe to attack Dong Zhuo, or go out of Wuguan to attack Jingzhou.

In a short period of time, the three paths are obviously not suitable.

As far as Zhang He's memory of history is concerned, there is no excuse to play next year, at least not until the year after next.

Generally speaking, it is not bad. This year in history, Liu Bei served as Sima under Gongsun Zan's command. It was not until next year (191) that he tried to serve as the county magistrate of Pingyuan County, and later became the Prime Minister of Pingyuan County.

Looking at the present, not including Dong Zhuo, Liu Bei is almost the biggest prince in the world today.

If it continues to expand, it will probably arouse the fear of some people.

If Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu were united, the battle of Kuangting would not have happened in the end, Sun Jian would not have died, Cao Cao would not have separated Dongjun, but Yuan Shao and Yuan Shu would unite to attack Liu Bei...

Forget it, there's no need to worry about it, it just takes one year to cultivate all the crops.

"In this case, help me get some plants here, and I will try to breed them in the spring of next year." Zhang He signaled.

"It's easy, you can even ask where you got it, and get some back if you can." Zou Yu promised.

"By the way, get some kapok seeds back." Zhang He didn't forget this either.

"Okay, okay, what else, let's talk about it together." Zou Yu said with a smile.

"Which of you will accompany me tonight?" Zhang He looked at the girls.

As a result, all the girls were stunned, blushing and lowered their heads, except for someone who took the initiative to sign up...

After all, the New Year is here, but it is difficult for the five brothers to get together this year.

It is Zhang Fei, Zhang He and the three brothers Guan Yu who got together, and there is a high probability that Liu Bei will get together with Tai Shici.

Everyone grew up another year, and under Zhang He's continuous hard work, all the girls were pregnant.

With this pregnancy here, the flames of war will focus on other people.

As a result, there was a bit of a vicious circle, and they were all conceived.

My silly boy and my silly girl don't know that in a few months, I will have a few more brothers and sisters.

On the contrary, Zou Yu remembered Zhang He's instructions, and not long after the beginning of spring, he brought a large number of kapok seeds for him. There were not many cotton seeds, only a dozen or so.

The Zhang family said that they met in a small country in the Western Regions. At that time, they sold grain there, and they found it beautiful by chance, so they bought it back as an ornamental plant.

There is a shortage of food in the Western Regions. In the past, Liangzhou's food, except for self-sufficiency, was basically sold to the Western Regions through the Zhang family.

This is also the reason why Wudu produces grain on a large scale, but the Zhang family can monopolize grain. What they monopolize is the export business.

"If it is cultivated on a large scale now..." Zhang He looked at the seeds in his hand, with tears and snot in his nose.

The main reason is that he knows very well that after cotton is fully popularized, this underwear will be popularized as well.

　It can be said that the mainstream of this era is linen or Gebu, and the rich wear fur and silk.Silk underwear can be made, silk underwear is really good, breathable and cool.

　　But if you want to promote it, you still need cotton underwear, otherwise linen underwear would be so sour?
　　I also thought about it for a while, there is no underwear in ancient times, so if there is no Takahashi saddle, if there are double-sided stirrups, as the horse advances, the crotch will continue to rub against the horse's back...

　　Is it the sadness of the egg, or the injury of the inner thigh, and everyone knows how to choose between the two, so it is bilateral and unilateral.This problem seems to be solved after the Tang Dynasty, I don't remember it very clearly.

　　Cotton was only introduced during the Southern and Northern Dynasties, but theoretically it should have spread on a small scale at the end of the Han Dynasty, but only rarely.Anyway, this setting is like this, so I got it.As mentioned in the article, Indian cotton is not as good as American cotton, but if the protagonist improves it, it may be able to reach that level.Anyway, the taste of American cotton, potatoes, corn and pumpkins in this era is definitely not as good as that of later generations, and the output is not as high.

　　It is the dwarfing of the kapok tree, which may be quite meaningful.

　　Just like the dwarfing of durian, the dwarfing of domestic durian has always been a key research topic.

　　It can bear fruit within one or two meters, so it is very convenient to pick, and similar results have already been obtained.There seems to be dwarfing of kapok, but I don't know what happened.

　　Ask for collection, ask for recommendation, ask for subscription!
