If this cotton was widely planted in the Wei Dynasty, the people would never get cold in winter. Compared with cotton, the word "keeping out the cold" is the most important thing for Qi You, the emperor.

"After I got these seeds, I didn’t blindly adopt foreign planting methods, and combined with my own farming experience, I first cultivated cotton seedlings in a small scale, just like sweet potatoes and potatoes, and then transplanted them into the seeds. Of course, I also planted some kinds of cotton according to the unified planting method. As a result, when cotton matured, the output of seed cotton was about 600 kilograms per mu, and the unified farming method was not only small but also very wave. This year, I planted five acres of cotton in Qianhe Mountain Villa, and the light in that field has always been better. Farmers also take good care of their seed cotton. The output of seed cotton is about 3,000 kilograms. Only 10 kilograms of seed cotton can produce 3 kilograms of ginned cotton. This time, the ginned cotton is nearly 1,000 kilograms. Now these ginned cotton are kept in the villa by special personnel. "Qin Lanxin did not hide that she planted cotton in the hope that after she successfully planted it, Qi You, the emperor, could promote it in the Wei Dynasty.
She is not so selfish to monopolize cotton to make money, and once outsiders know its benefits, cotton will become a disaster bomb. She is not so stupid to make money for the national economy and people’s livelihood. Besides, her purpose of making money is to protect her family, not to make money.
"What are seed cotton and lint?" The difference between the two is so great that Huai Shao also has curiosity
"Seed cotton is cotton that has just been picked, and lint is cotton after seed cotton is removed from cottonseed. Although lint is much less than seed cotton, it is much better than kapok in all aspects. Even if the output is high or low, the cotton produced by an acre of land will be enough for a family." Qin Lanxin said.
"You’re right. This cotton may change the lives of the people in the Wei Dynasty in the future!" Qi You had great expectations for the changes that cotton might bring to the people in the Wei Dynasty.
"Since cotton is so beneficial to the country and the people, it is better to plant it on a large scale that year!" Zhong Yu is also learning how to be an emperor. Although the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, Jiyou will always go to Fenghe Temple to talk to her if he has any thoughts about state affairs.
"Back to Empress, I do have a lot of cotton seeds in my hand now, but there is a very small part of land in Qianhe Mountain Villa that is more suitable for planting cotton. Cotton is more suitable for planting in loose and deep soil because it likes heat, bears drought and has good light. I think planting in a hot place in the north may have a higher yield than Kyoto, and it is best to plant it in a large area first, so that it can be managed and cotton seeds can be obtained more." Qin Lanxin suggested.
"Lan Xin said yes, the emperor had already asked Li’s adult in advance. He said that there were several states in the northwest of Wei Dynasty where the summer was longer, and those places were sparsely populated and had a lot of loose and deep soil. A few months ago, I specially sent people to try out several cotton plants in these places, and the branches and leaves of the cotton grown by special personnel were higher than those in Qianhe Mountain Villa, and more cotton was obtained." This is also why Qin Lanxin told Zhong Yi at the cotton planting place that Zhong Yi made a decision at that time. Now it seems that the experiment is better to plant cotton in the northwest.
"Are you? You tell me in detail! " Jiyou didn’t expect Zhong Yi and Qin Lan’s husband and wife to have done this and told him with great reservation that this was a real national good thing.
Then Zhong Yi told Jiyou and Zhong Huai Shao everything he and Qin Lan secretly did in cotton for the past six months. On the other hand, Zhong Yu touched cotton and asked Qin Lan about something.
"You mean that these cotton can be woven into garments, and then the people of the Wei Dynasty will not wear linen." Zhong Yu is also happy that the country is prosperous and the people have a good life, and she is naturally happy.
"But the Empress’s cotton is covered with Bao Biri’s saying that cotton stalks can be used to make paper, cotton seeds can be used to extract oil to eat, and cotton has strong water absorption, but cotton is full of alcohol to disinfect soldiers’ wounds. The total benefits of cotton are great!" Qin Lan took out a handful of cotton in his palm and smiled and said to Zhong Yu.
"I didn’t expect foreign species to be so fierce. Then it is said that the life of those foreigners is much better than that of our Wei Dynasty!" Zhong Yu said with some surprise
"I don’t know about this, but foreigners are really advanced in some places. If we keep shutting the country out of the sea like this, maybe we won’t learn many advanced things!" Qin Lanxin can understand that the owners of this continent are not concerned about the outside world, but in the long run, they will be forced to go abroad by others, and at that time, it will still be ordinary people who suffer.
Qin Lanxin talked with Zhong Yu, and the three of Qi You heard it. At this moment, Qin Lanxin’s words have been deeply imprinted in Qi You’s heart. If there is a strong country on the other side of the sea, he must learn its strengths and advantages to truly protect his country and his subjects.
A few people didn’t talk about it for too long in the secret room. After all, there are a lot of guests in the palace.
By the time a few people came out, there was already a second buffet in Liuxuan Garden. Fortunately, Qin Lan was just in case the kitchen staff prepared a lot of vegetables and fruits, even if the staple food was less wine and barbecue, it would be endless.
On this day, all the guests left the gate of Prince Gong’s mansion at sunset, and Qin Lanxin gave them a small gift when everyone left. The man is an exquisite folding fan with a pendant and the woman is an embroidered handkerchief.
"This is really embarrassing. We ate, drank and played in Wangfu this day. We left and gave gifts!" Princess Liang looked at the embroidered handkerchief in her hand with great joy. At first glance, it was made by an embroidered mother with excellent embroidery skills, and the color matching was very beautiful.
"It’s just some little princes. I wish you liked them!" He Fangqing personally sent Princess Liang and Deng Wanru out. Although she was tired on this day, she also felt full and happy, especially when Zhong En’s marriage was settled, even Zhong Pei and Zhong Li also had a look.
"Like it! My duke didn’t come today, but I can take this one. He likes horses best. This horse painting is really good. "Deng Wanru is holding a folding fan in a fan cover. She is her husband, Luo Zhenna, and she is also interested in this fan horse.
"These fans are all made from fan paintings, but the paintings by scholars are all their own things anyway, so don’t mention it!" He Fangqing said with a smile
"Are you? Then it is quite good to learn painting in this hospital! " Deng Wanru praised
As a result, the next day, Wanjuanlou poured in many new guests, some of whom came for those sectors.
Qin Lan’s heart was busy. The next day, she was lying in the jade courtyard to rest. Yesterday, she was also busy. He Fangqing didn’t let her go to inquire after the whole Wangfu people.
Qin Lan didn’t get up slowly until after the time. At this time, Chong Shuang told her that Aunt Wu and Zhong En had been waiting for her in the slant hall for a long time.
"Why didn’t you wake me up?" Qin Lan heart some blame asked.
"Report to my princess that Aunt Wu and Eun’s girl are not allowed to say that you were very tired at the party yesterday, and they will just wait for you to wake up," said Chong Shuang with his head down.
"Okay, I know!" Qin Lan got up and simply freshened up and then went to the slant hall.
"I have seen the little princess!"
"I have seen my sister-in-law!"
When Qin Lanxin came in, Aunt Wu and Zhong En quickly gave her a blessing.
"Aunt, sister, you’re welcome. Sit down quickly. I’m so sorry I overslept!" Qin Lan smiled shyly.
"The little princess should have a rest after a busy day in the past!" Aunt Wu, I’ll see you again today. Qin Lan’s heart and face have a soft smile and her vigilance is much less.
"What can I do for my aunt and sister En?" Yesterday, Zhong En thanked herself, and Qin Lan didn’t feel that she had done much.
"Little Princess, you will never forget your kindness and virtue yesterday!" Aunt Wu knelt down and kowtowed to Qin Lan’s heart. Zhong En also knelt down. "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
"Aunt, sister, what are you doing? Get up!" Qin Lanxin hurriedly got up and helped the two men up. "We are all a family. Don’t kneel down and say anything. Thank you, Aunt. You are also my elder. If you continue like this, you will lose my life!"
"Little Princess, thank you!" Aunt Wu’s eyes were red in an instant, and it was her small heart that made her feel comfortable. Qin Lan’s heart was different from that of He Fangqing and Mrs. Ning, and she was more generous and generous because of her peasant background.
"I said that the family is not so polite!" Qin Lan heart said with a smile
"The little princess was very grateful to the emperor, the queen and the prince, but even more grateful to the little princess that you saved her name," said Aunt Wu, wiping a corner of her eye.
There are many women in the back house of Wangfu, but few of them can have children and grow up healthily. The only daughter, Zhong En, has worked hard these years. Now the biggest expectation is that her daughter can marry a good family, but such a simple wish was almost destroyed by Zhong Zhen.
Before she gave birth to herself and her daughter, it was nai to please Mrs. Ning. Now the palace days have changed because of the arrival of Qin Lan’s heart. This time, He Fangqing and Qin Lan’s kindness to their mother and daughter also let them see who they should rely on. Aunt Wu came over with Zhong En.
"Yesterday, the situation was not only the name of Eun’s sister, but also the name of Wangfu. I also know that someone must be framing Eun’s sister. Fortunately, I still have two words here. Otherwise, it’s really reasonable to say that this dirty water can’t be washed away. Although Eun’s sister’s marriage has been decided, everyone should be careful after her sister’s marriage. Mrs. Cai and Miss Yuan are all good. I believe that Yuan Jia will not treat her well in the future!" Sell a good one to Aunt Wu’s mother and daughter, and let them appreciate it. Qin Lan believes that it is good for herself and has no harm.
Sure enough, when I heard Qin Lanxin’s words, Aunt Wu suddenly knelt down and said, "Don’t worry, little princess, although she doesn’t like to talk, she is definitely not a stupid and reckless person. Please ask little princess to give her a little more. This palace is her mother’s house, and it is you and little prince that she can rely on in the future!"
"Aunt, get up quickly. If you kneel down at every turn, I won’t let you in because this jade belongs to the courtyard gate!" Qin Lan heart pretend to threaten said with a smile.
Aunt Wu embarrassedly wiped her tears. Although she has lived in the back house of Wangfu for a long time, she knows a thing or two about everything in Kyoto. This Yuan family has a simple population and is generally honest like this. How can she marry a maiden to enter the door? Even if the door is lower, it is a blessing that Zhong En can marry in the past.
Aunt Wu and Zhong En stayed in Yuguiyuan for a while until the sunrise and the sunny courtyard came to invite Qin Lan to come over and they also left.
After Qin Lan’s heart arrived at the sunrise and sunny courtyard, He Fangqing was putting it on the log table in the wing, and there were some hot porridge and side dishes on the table.
"I heard from Chongxue that you haven’t eaten breakfast just now. I just got up to eat with my mother. Let’s have breakfast and lunch together. Hehe, maybe I ate too much yesterday. I’m not so hungry now!" He Fangqing wait until Qin Lan heart that take the door to let her sit and said with a smile.
"Actually, I’m not hungry either!" Qin Lan said with some coquetry in her heart, but she picked up chopsticks and symbolically ate two bites.
"By the way, I heard that Aunt Wu and Zhong En went to your courtyard because of yesterday’s banquet, right?" He Fangqing asked.
Qin Lan nodded. "They came to thank you. In fact, it’s kind of grace."
"You’re right. This time, it was her luck. Mrs. Cai was interested in getting married in Wangfu. You may not know it. In fact, Zhong Pei and Zhong Li were also notified to go to the back garden yesterday, but these two girls didn’t pay much attention. But Zhong En didn’t think so much. Aunt Wu Cong didn’t give it to her daughter!" The women in the backyard have been fighting with each other for so long that He Fangqing doesn’t really know anything about them.
