The champion is my son

Chapter 68 Food
The mentality of starting out determines whether the future road will be broad or not. Her inner thoughts are probably a good thing for Yunji.

"This is just the beginning." Li Qing said, the plan to make money is going on silently.

After cotton seeds are removed, there is still a layer of cotton on top of the cotton seeds, so that can only be ignored.

After weighing it with a scale, there were [-] catties of cotton left.

This time, the planting is small, and the yield is not very high. There are still [-] catties, which is already beyond Li Qing's budget.

"Twenty catties, enough to fill three quilts." Jiang grabbed a handful of cotton in her hand, the cotton thread was soft and delicate.

Fabrics spun from cotton fibers are stronger, more durable, and more breathable than those made from silk.

"This can't be used to fill the quilt, I have another magical use." Li Qing pressed Jiang's hand and asked her to put the cotton into the cloth bag.In order to protect the cleanliness of the cotton before, Jiang picked up the quilt that could not be covered due to the disaster at home overnight, and made a cloth bag.

"Ok?"

What else can this cotton be used for besides filling the quilt?If you want to weave fabrics, it's hard to die. I heard that the process is very complicated.

It has to be twisted first, then spun into yarn, and then shuttled on the machine to weave.

This thing is short and weak, and it is very troublesome to make twists, and then it is spun into thread balls with a spinning machine one by one.It all depends on a bunch of artificial brute force, not to mention how uncomfortable it is, and the efficiency is very low.What's more, the current spinning machines are not suitable for spinning cotton.

So far there is no loom suitable for weaving cotton.

Therefore, the price of cotton cloth on the market remains high, almost equal to that of silk.

Li Qing's top-secret plan is not going to tell Jiang Shi yet, she is afraid that Jiang Shi won't be able to bear it.After all, this is a world where men are superior to women. Once Li Qing's plan is successful, it will definitely challenge the three cardinal principles and five permanent principles.Jiang is a traditional woman at heart, she will collapse.

"I want to spin it into yarn."

The spinning wheel at home is hand-cranked, with one thread per person at a time. It is reasonable to say that there are pedal-operated spinning wheels in the Eastern Jin Dynasty.The hand-cranked square car at home is only one ingot, so the efficiency is low.I have to find out if there is a three-spindle pedal.

Jiang Shi: "..." I think you don't want my old lady to be idle.He said that he wanted to twist it into a thread, but actually?It's not that the old lady is doing things.Jiang also knew that her daughter-in-law was weak in this area, so she didn't care too much about it.It's a good thing for a daughter-in-law to be on her own, how can she destroy it?
In the following days, Li Qing began to roll the cotton into slivers.

This is what Jiang taught her.In fact, she has a set of theories, but knows nothing.

Jiang Shi knew that Li Qing could only talk, but he couldn't do it.It's already very laborious just to form this thing into a strip.Then put it on the spinning wheel and twist it into a thread. It is done every day, and I don't know when it will be completed.

Li Qing: I have to walk the path I chose on my knees.

Spinning cotton into yarn, spinning into cloth, this is the process of forming cotton cloth.At this stage, all they can do is spin cotton into balls, and the loom is somewhere in Liu Erye's house.

After a year of precipitation, Yunji's knowledge has become more solid.In another month, I will take the government examination.Apart from reading, he went for a walk in the mountains with Li Qing.Experience the fun between mountains and rivers.

Li Qing was deliberately cultivating Yunji's temperament. This is what is called self-cultivation.Master Xi now completely regards Yunji as his disciple, and he is also very dedicated in teaching.

No matter where they are, people with strong abilities will always be respected, such as Yunji.

His mind is active, which is different from most people in the village school.There are not only children in the village school, but also several 16-[-], [-]-[-], among them is Liu Anqing, who is [-] years old and is the eldest son of the youngest generation of the Liu family.

Liu Anqing took the exam three times and passed twice. He was going to take the last exam last year.He already has a well-thought-out plan for the title of scholar, but he canceled it last year.

For a while, he couldn't stand the blow and began to give up on himself.Older people in the village school are always reluctant to communicate with younger people.I always feel an inexplicable sense of shame.

Suddenly one day, he saw Yunji reading a book that he should not read at his age.Liu Anqing stared at Yun Ji for a long time, and found that he was able to explain one or two principles in the book.

Liu Anqing immediately became very interested in this little junior. He heard that there was a child prodigy who was able to compose poems at the age of seven and compose Fu at the age of nine, but he was banned by the court at the age of eleven or twelve.

How does he feel that this little junior has talent in this area?Liu Anqing suddenly became interested in making friends.Yun Ji had nothing against this senior brother who appeared out of nowhere, Liu Anqing was a polite person, and Yun Ji liked polite people.

"Even though the younger brother is young, he is very talented, which makes the younger brother feel ashamed."

"What did senior brother say? Yun Ji is just a kid, not half as good as senior brother." Yun Ji was very familiar with polite and modest words.

"Junior Brother, don't be modest. I heard that Junior Brother is No. 3 in the County Examination. I hope that Junior Brother will win the first place in the government examination next year." Liu Anqing laughed.

Although Liu Anqing's words sounded like flattery, it is undeniable that he really meant it seriously.For Yunji, there is no harm.

"In the future, if there is anything we don't understand, we can discuss it with each other." He is going to take the college exam this year, and he hopes to pass it smoothly.

Liu Anqing thought for a while and then said: "On weekdays we somewhat avoid suspicion because of the age gap, and I hope the younger brother will not blame him."

"I've never bothered about these details, so you don't have to think about it, brother."

Yunji talks like a young adult, which makes it easy for people to ignore his age. At this moment, Liu Anqing will somewhat regard him as his peers.

From then on, Liu Anqing often talked to Yunji after school, and sometimes in the dining hall, he would leave a few "buddies" behind to have dinner with Yunji, and brought his family brother Liu Anyun with him.

The Jiang family will not be stingy with Yunji's food, and they will eat the best kind.

Yunji is handsome and has a lovely mouth. The aunt who cooks in the canteen likes him very much.Coupled with Jiang Xiaohui's secret help, Yunji always had more dishes than others.When there are meat dishes, the aunt will definitely try her best to fill Yunji with meat.

Liu Anqing looked at the cloud and the bowl, and compared it with his own bowl.Yunji's bowl was full of meat, but one or two slices in his own bowl were all lean meat, not a single bit of fat was visible.

This is too unfair, right?

Liu Anqing glanced at the aunt who was serving the meal, the aunt looked at everyone with a smile, and then scooped up a spoonful of food trembling and swishing.

"..." Compared with those people, I am much better.

There is no harm without comparison.

Liu Anqing's whole heart was bleeding from pain.

"Brother, what's wrong with you? Why is there such an expression?" Yun Ji finished eating the food in the bowl, and found Liu Anqing biting his chopsticks in a daze, with a fuzzy face, sometimes tangled, sometimes sad, sometimes laughing.

Are you stupid?
