Traveling through another world as a sacrifice

Chapter 106 Huge Sensation
After half a month, more than 100 sets of down jackets were finally completed. Wang Xiaoyu gave all these clothes to the servants who lived at the bottom of the temple, which made the servants who had been troubled by the cold winter very grateful.

People have vanity. Although many servants have already accepted their fate, deep down in their hearts, they also long for a noble life. However, the hierarchy is destined to make them inferior. They can only look enviously at the fur coats of the nobles .

But now, the roles have been reversed, and now the nobles look at the servants in down jackets with envious eyes, which makes the servants who have always felt inferior feel proud, and their gratitude to Wang Xiaoyu grows deeper in their hearts.

During these days, all the people who went up the mountain to worship found a strange phenomenon, that is, all the servants in the temple were wearing a kind of strange clothes, which looked like cotton and linen, but the clothes were very swollen.

Everyone has a sense of curiosity, so people will naturally come forward to ask. At first, believers did not believe that this light and fluffy dress was so magical, but after trying it on themselves, everyone was conquered.

Everyone wants good things. After learning that the down jacket was invented by the priest, people worshiped this new priest very much. All of a sudden, under the hype of the believers, the down jacket was released in less than a month. Over time, almost the entire capital knew about down jackets.

Of course, because of the scarcity of the number, many people have only heard of it, but have not actually seen it. This made some sensitive businessmen smell business opportunities, and they disguised themselves as believers and went up the mountain to buy.

The servants on the holy mountain treasure this down jacket very much. They believe that it is blessed by God, so most of them are unwilling to sell it. Of course, everyone is different, and some people still bow their heads in the face of high benefits. .

The production process of down jackets is not complicated, so it didn't take long for countless imitation down jackets to be born, and some smart merchants have improved a lot on the original technology, such as adding a hat to the clothes, or adding a collar to the neckline. The fine fox fur can not help but increase the beauty of the clothes, and greatly satisfy the pursuit of beauty by the nobles.

It takes at least 200 geese and ducks to make a [-]-gram down jacket, which makes the demand for chickens, ducks and geese in the market increase sharply. For a while, poultry in every market becomes gunslinger goods, and often a duck has just been placed. When it came out, it was bought immediately.

Even so, the supply is still greater than the demand. Duck down is not something that can be swelled up after being pulled, and it takes a long time to recover. Therefore, in the case of down shortage, the cost of down jackets has also been raised.

In particular, some down jackets with good-looking styles and a lot of filling have been fired to the point of shocking people. These prices have already scared ordinary people away, but for the nobles who pursue quality, the higher the price, the more gunslinger, even Some nobles even fought for a down jacket.

The influence of the down jacket is still fermenting. Following the eulogy of some bards, this storm quickly swept across the country, and almost everyone knew about this lightweight and warm thing.

Wang Xiaoyu was unaware of the effects she had caused, at the moment she was intoxicated by the praise of the temple servants, now she was like a star, wherever she went, countless people would praise her.Being in such praise for a long time, I can't help feeling a little ecstatic.

As the temperature gets colder, fewer and fewer people come to worship on the mountain. With fewer people, Wang Xiaoyu's pressure will be reduced. Most of the time, she doesn't need to go out to preside over the work in person. As for some trivial matters, the adjutants and the others will Do it for you.

Early this morning, there was heavy snow falling in the sky, and the biting cold wind whizzed by arrogantly. The strong force bent the branches with thick wrists to [-] degrees. With such a strong wind, it is really dangerous to go out. matter.

Wang Xiaoyu hasn't gone out since waking up in the morning, lazily nestling on the sofa in front of the fireplace, half-closed her eyes, propping her head with one hand, and holding a half-bitten fruit in the other, as if Thinking is like being in a daze.

"Dong dong." Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Although the sound was not loud, it was enough to wake Wang Xiaoyu up. She rubbed her eyes and signaled the servant to open the door.

The door opened, and there was Marcie in a down jacket standing outside. She nodded to the maid, and walked slowly to the sofa. Wang Xiaoyu heard something approaching behind her. She raised her head, and when she found it was Marcie, her eyelids twitched. Jump; "Aunt Marcy, why are you here?"

"Master Priest, hello." Marci first saluted Wang Xiaoyu respectfully, then she straightened her face and said in a flat tone; "Adjutant Roy has something to see, he asked if it's convenient for you to go to the study .”

"What? Roy is looking for me?" When Wang Xiaoyu heard that Roy was looking for her, she almost fell off the sofa in fright. With the help of the maid, Wang Xiaoyu sat back on the sofa again, her eyes were strange Looking at Marcy; "What is he looking for?"

"Maxi doesn't know. If the priest wants to know, he can find out in the study." Marci lowered her eyes, avoiding Wang Xiaoyu's visiting gaze.

Seeing Marcie's appearance, Wang Xiaoyu couldn't help muttering in her heart. She always felt that Marcie must know something, and this time Roy suddenly asked her to go, so there should be nothing good.

Thinking about it, Wang Xiaoyu didn't seem to have done anything bad during this period of time, so he shouldn't be looking for his own bad luck, right?So she got up from the sofa and followed Marcie to the study room at the innermost part of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

This was originally a place where Roy used to study. Now that the owner has changed, the room is still as clean as new, because a lazy person like Wang Xiaoyu would never take the initiative to step into this kind of place. Let her see some complicated things. It would be easier to just let her die.

Pushing open the heavy wooden door, a fresh fragrance blows in. There are not many furniture in the room, only four pieces, a table, a stool, a simple bookshelf, and a cabinet with countless squares.

This cabinet was originally used to store animal skins, but now, with the change of owner, all the things that belonged to Roy have been taken away, and now it is empty. The sunlight from the window penetrates these squares, forming interlaced light and shadow on the ground. shadows.

Through these squares, Wang Xiaoyu saw Roy standing by the window in white clothes. The wind was howling outside the window, and the hurricane blew in through the window, scraping Roy's robe and rattling his hair. Blowing and swinging in the air, this shape looks like a fairy who wants to ride the wind to go home.

Roy seemed to have stood there for a long time, because a thin layer of snowflakes had accumulated on his shoulders. Looking at Roy's aloof back, Wang Xiaoyu always felt that he was very lonely at the moment, which made people feel distressed .

"Distressed?" Wang Xiaoyu was taken aback by the sudden thoughts in her heart, even she herself couldn't believe that she felt pity for an annoying person just now.Maybe it was just a momentary hallucination, Wang Xiaoyu comforted herself like this.

Just as Wang Xiaoyu was looking for a reason for herself, Roy had already walked in front of her, staring coldly at Wang Xiaoyu in front of him with a pair of indifferent eyes.

"Wow, what are you doing, you're so close to me all of a sudden?" Wang Xiaoyu looked up and saw Roy close at hand, his heart thumped in fright.

"Slap." A slap on Wang Xiaoyu's face was merciless, and five deep finger prints were immediately printed on Wang Xiaoyu's face.

It took Wang Xiaoyu a few seconds to react after being slapped. She covered her face and looked at Roy in disbelief. "You hit me? Why did you hit me?"

"Do you know what stupid things you did!" Roy's eyes seemed to be burning with flames, and he stared at Wang Xiaoyu with an unprecedentedly fierce tone, which was quite different from his usual gentle image.

Wang Xiaoyu had never seen Roy so angry, and was stunned for a moment. She looked at Roy, not understanding what he was talking about.

"Look for yourself!" Roy didn't seem to want to talk nonsense with Wang Xiaoyu. He walked to the table, waved his sleeves, and dozens of neatly placed scrolls of animal skins rolled down. The little fish's feet.

Looking at the scrolls all over the floor, Wang Xiaoyu picked one at random and was about to read it. Suddenly, he remembered that he was illiterate, so he hummed to Roy confidently, "I don't understand." kicked the reel, as if venting.

"You..." Roy gave Wang Xiaoyu a hard look. He didn't expect Wang Xiaoyu to be so careless and unable to read after being here for so long. In desperation, Roy had to suppress his anger and say to someone ;"You know what you have done recently!"

"What did I do that gave you the right to hit me? Just talk about it. If you can't tell, don't blame me for being rude!" Wang Xiaoyu saw that Roy was the only one in the room, and he was not afraid in his heart. Also bring some arrogance.

"Hmph." Roy snorted coldly, he naturally didn't take Wang Xiaoyu's threat to heart, and took out a down jacket from under the table and threw it in front of Wang Xiaoyu; "Do you know this thing?"

Wang Xiaoyu immediately rounded his eyes when he saw it. Isn't this the down jacket he invented, but it doesn't look like it after a closer look, because the style of this down jacket is much better, and there is a hat.She has never seen such a style on the holy mountain, so where did this dress come from?

"Do you know that because this dress has had a huge impact on people's lives?"

"What? What did I do wrong? Is it wrong for me to benefit the people?" Wang Xiaoyu said unconvinced.

"Benefiting the people? It sounds good. Do you really think that ordinary people can wear such clothes?" Roy was annoyed by Wang Xiaoyu. He raised his eyebrows and simply told Wang Xiaoyu what happened outside.

It turned out that in order to make down jackets, a large number of poultry were looted by merchants. Even so, it was still unable to meet the market demand. Therefore, some nobles did not hesitate to take risks and use their rights to rob common people of dead poultry.

Where there is plunder, there is conflict. Some farmers do not hesitate to resist in order to protect their property, but ordinary people and nobles will only end in a dead end when they confront each other.Therefore, similar bloody things were staged everywhere, which also caused the people to complain, and wrote letters of complaints to the temple, and these letters of complaints were sent to Roy.
