Chapter 90

"I'm not doing it for them. I'm picking these for ourselves. Anyway, I have nothing to do today, so I'm going out for a walk."

Tong Xiaowu said her thoughts, and Feng Yuchen realized that the plants she came to find for pulp and dyeing materials were not really for those cotton farmers, but to come out to play with him, and take a look by the way.

"The colors of fabrics in every cloth shop in the market are almost the same. If we find new colors, dye cotton and silk threads by ourselves, and then find someone to weave them into cloth for our own use, then no one will be able to compare with us in the future. , because what we have they don't.

In the future, no matter if it is Feng Dafu or whoever wants to imitate our products, they will not be able to imitate them, and our wool felt dolls, first of all, the material is enough for them to guess for a year and a half, plus the craftsmanship, it will be even more difficult. No one can copy it.

At that time, no matter how big or wide the market is, it will belong to our family. Even if other doll workshops emerge, they can only follow us and eat the dust. It will be even more difficult to surpass our family. "

"Ma'am, I misunderstood you. I thought you were doing it for those cotton farmers?" Feng Yuchen heaved a sigh of relief. Zhang Jiande from Zhangjia Village was really annoying. Although he didn't want to be as knowledgeable as him, it was uncomfortable to add trouble for no reason. of.

"You still say me, if you didn't see them pitiful, how could I have fallen into such a pit?" Tong Xiaowu pretended to be angry, stretched out her hand and punched him.

Feng Yuchen grabbed her clay hand and laughed: "How do you know it's me?"

"During the tax audit that day, you asked me what my idea was in front of the county magistrate? I knew you had compassion, anyway, I helped Lord Qi, and he will take care of any difficulties we have in the future Aren't we the weaving method of new cloth? Can it be difficult to defeat me?"

Tong Xiaowu confidently looked at the large area of ​​comfrey in front of her, smiled happily, and continued digging.

The two worked together and dug up half a bag of comfrey roots, Feng Yuchen picked another purse of comfrey seeds, and the two of them left the forest and walked back.

When we arrived at the rented yard in the county seat, the sun was almost dark.

After the two of them took a shower and had a meal, Feng Yuchen helped pack the things they had picked up, while Tong Xiaowu sat at the desk to write and draw. It was not until the end of the Xu Dynasty that she completed the design draft and dragged Feng Yuchen to bed.

She checked his leg injury, then got out of bed and made him a cup of raw cucumber seed soup, and watched him drink it before lying down to rest.

……

On the morning of the third day, the four weavers came to Tong Xiaowu's rented house early, but still saw no one, and no one answered when they knocked on the door. The four were so scared that they ran back to the county magistrate's mansion again, and hurriedly notified.

The county magistrate's wife was also afraid that the matter would be delayed, so she hurriedly went to the county government office to inform Mr. Qi, so that he could be mentally prepared.

The boy went to the yamen, but found that the county magistrate was sitting in the courtroom, so he didn't want to disturb him, so he went into the inner court and told the yamen about it. Zhang Jiande from Jiacun heard it.

"Tong Xiaowu ran away, is that okay?"

Zhang Jiande, who is the only one respected by him, is the head of the clan in Zhangjia Village, and also a part-time head of the village. , Excitedly dodged the broken steps and entered the inner court.

In the inner court are all the chiefs of the eleven villages left over from the day before yesterday, and everyone is planning the rural cooperative.

Seeing him yelling and entering the room, they all stood up, "What are you talking about? Tong Xiaowu ran away?"

"No, just now I heard what the servant told the yamen servant that Tong Xiaowu hadn't been seen for two days." With a smile on the corner of Zhang Jiande's mouth, he patted the table heavily, "What did I say? She's a liar, you just don't listen!"

"But, this is not right, what can she lie to us?"

Everyone discussed a lot, and their minds were in a state of uncertainty. Later, Master Qi came, telling everyone not to worry, everything will be decided after seeing the results tomorrow, and everyone settled down.

The so-called waking up with a pot full of stinky meat, Zhang Jiande, taking advantage of the fact that these people live in the same place overnight, even caused many people to think that Tong Xiaowu is not a person who keeps his word like him.

On the appointed day, early in the morning, before the yamen opened, these cotton farmers started discussing in the rented inner room, and the discussion broke out again.

Until the yamen opened and these individuals entered the inner court, the quarreling voices did not calm down.

When Qi Hengyuan came, there was a louder sound from inside, regardless of Zhang Jiande, who was seventy or eighty years old, the voice was the loudest.

"Tong Xiaowu is a scheming liar. You are still being stupid. It is impossible for her to come today. Forget about the rural cooperative, don't think about it..."

"Impossible, maybe she didn't come back because of something. If she is a liar, what are you trying to do with us? Besides, what's the use of the five people Master Qi lent her? If she wants to run a business, she can recruit people by just posting a notice. If she didn't sincerely want to help us, why did she nod her head and agree?"

Some of these people also understand, and they can think clearly about the cause and effect and see thoroughly.

"She is a liar, a smart, self-righteous, showy liar, you are still here to speak for her, if she is not a liar, why doesn't she show up? This yamen is open..." Zhang Jiande stared and insisted. .

"Shut up!" Qi Hengyuan opened the door curtain and walked in: "It's not yet time, you're all in such a mess, what's wrong with you, you haven't joined together to form a rural cooperative, you're so confused, this If you are connected together, are you going crazy? You quarrel three times a day and don’t even think about doing anything."

"My lord, what are you talking about about rural cooperatives? That's Tong Xiaowu's excuse for deceiving people. She has run away, what else is she doing?" A village chief in his 30s was also worried, so what Zhang Jiande said last night, he I really believe it.

"I heard you didn't come back all day yesterday?" Zhang Jiande twitched his tongue and shook his head: "It's over, three days of delay, if it weren't for this liar, we would all take a car and take cotton to Pingyi County, maybe we can do it Bought some silver and came back."

Qi Hengyuan frowned slightly, and said several times that this method is not feasible, so why is the head of this piece still clinging to this point?
"My lord, according to my opinion, maybe this Tong Xiaowu has gone out to find new cloth weaving methods." Someone who supported Tong Xiaowu said.

"Go out and look for it? What kind of fabrics and weaving methods are popular in our entire state and county, and even in our entire Xuanyuan Kingdom? Can't you see it at a glance? Why do you need to go out and look for it?

If you go out to find it, how far do you have to go?There are some different weaving methods in the hands of alien races in the deep mountains and old forests in the extreme south, but getting there is extremely difficult and dangerous. Besides, it will take half a year to get there without a year. Today is the agreed day, then Are you kidding me? "

 Do you have such a person by your side?It's like a shit-stirring stick, lest the world will not be chaotic, typical persecution paranoia?Still the same sentence, recommendation ticket...
