The poor man grows watermelon

The capital, the imperial palace, the Hall of Martial Arts.

Seeing Huo Da, the chief eunuch not only didn't stop him, but said in a casual manner: "General, you are back, your Majesty was still talking about it just now!"

Huo Da smiled, "Is cousin there?"

The eunuch bowed and opened the door for him, "Yes, I just finished approving the papers and am drinking tea!"

Huo Da nodded, and walked into the hall carelessly.

Xiao Heng never liked to be served by too many people. At this time, he was the only one in the Hall of Martial Arts, holding a teacup and lazily reclining on the dragon chair.

Huo Da laughed when he saw it, "Haha, if the prime minister sees this, I might miss you!"

Xiao Heng hummed shamelessly: "He can't see it!"

Huo Da made a "cut" sound, and glanced around, "Where is the one named Fan?"

Seeing his attitude, Xiao Heng immediately showed a bit of dissatisfaction, "After all, he grew up in the same place, and he is two years older than you, so he should call 'Brother Ming' out of reason."

"Still 'Brother Ming'? I...vomit—" Huo Da bent down and made an exaggerated gesture of vomiting.

Xiao Heng had no choice but to take the initiative to change the subject, "How about what I asked you to do?"

"Master Min really has a good eye. I went around with Taoist Master Tianxing, and it is indeed a good place with mountains and rivers."

Huo Da sat down on the dragon chair, picked up a pear and ate it with a "click" - almost squeezed the serious emperor Xiao Heng down.

However, the other party didn't care at all, and instead asked with interest: "Tell me, how is it?"

Huo Da took out a roll of paper from his bosom, and flung it away with a snap, revealing a topographical map with simple lines.

"Cousin, look, this place is backed by green mountains, surrounded by water on three sides, the sun is like fire during the day, and the moon is like frost at night. It can be said that the five elements are complete and the Fengshui is excellent."

Xiao Heng nodded again and again, "The water here can also form a natural barrier, which can be attacked when advancing, and defended when retreating. It's really wonderful!"

Huo Da spit out a mouthful of pear skin, and hooked his lips, "I said the same thing at the time, but I was despised by Master Tian Xingdao for a long time."

Xiao Heng was puzzled, "Why?"

Huo Da curled his lips and said with a snort: "He said it was used to build a palace, not a barracks. Let me put away the art of war."

Xiao Heng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help saying: "Dazi, tell me, is all this really what we want right now?"

Huo Da's thoughts also sank, and he said sullenly: "It's definitely not as pleasant as going to battle to kill the enemy, but you can't fight for a lifetime."

Xiao Heng sighed, frowning slightly.

Huo Da threw away the pear pit, and said in a rare serious manner: "Cousin, don't say anything else, all I know is that if you sit on this chair, the common people will have a way of life."

Xiao Heng pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Originally, I thought it would be the Marquis of Yong'an..."

"Master Su is indeed powerful, but unfortunately his life is too short."

Huo Da paused, and a look of unnaturalness flashed across his face, "What's more, he only has Su Yelan under his knees, he is a twin after all, even if he tries his best to knock down Jiangshan, who will he leave it to?"

Xiao Heng pouted, "I only have one twin."

Huo Da squinted, "You can still give birth!"

Xiao Heng was silent.

Huo Da stared at him, and said coldly: "Don't tell me, you really plan to spend your whole life with Fan!"

Xiao Heng glanced at him guiltily, then secretly moved aside.

Huo Da exploded immediately, and shouted loudly: "Are you serious?!"

Xiao Heng quickly patted his chest for him, and persuaded: "Don't get excited, don't get excited, it's not dead yet."

"You still want to say death?! I said, he is a man!"

Huo Da suppressed his voice, with a face full of hatred, "Didn't you like the Queen quite a lot before? Even if their father and daughter are nothing, you can't suddenly change your sex?"

Xiao Heng coughed lightly, and changed the subject sensibly, "Then what, if you also think it's a good place, I'll let Old Prime Minister Fan draft the decree."

"Whatever you want!" Huo Da leaned back on the chair angrily, and casually threw him a burden.

Xiao Heng smiled kindly, "What is this?"

"See for yourself!"

Xiao Heng opened it suspiciously, and what caught his eyes was a milky white shirt, the material was neither silk nor hemp, and it was warm to the touch.

Xiao Heng was surprised, "What is this made of? It's so special."

After all, Huo Da couldn't resist showing off, and replied indifferently: "Anyway, it's silky and warm."

Xiao Heng didn't dislike it either, and immediately took off his outer clothes and put the cardigan on his body.

Huo Da glanced at him, feeling even more depressed.

Back then, his cousin was also a heroic general, and after spending a month with Fan, how did he become so... handsome?

In fact, half of the pot is sweater.

This cardigan was woven according to Yu Feng's figure, and the shoulder line and hem of Xiao Heng's body drooped loosely at this time, and it looked a kind of lazy beauty.

Xiao Heng raised his arms and looked at himself curiously, "Which country's clothes are these? They look weird."

Huo Da raised his eyebrows, "How is it? Is it warm?"

Xiao Heng folded his cuffs to feel it, nodded and said: "Although it doesn't look very thick, it seems to be hot when worn on the body, and it is very warm."

Hoda raised the corners of his lips and finally showed a smiling face.

"Where did you get it? Can you still buy it? If it is made thicker, it may be warmer than a cotton coat in winter."

It is not difficult to see that Xiao Heng is really in love.

Huo Da played tricks, "Cousin might as well guess, if you can't guess correctly, you can answer me."

Xiao Heng smiled lightly, "What's the matter?"

Huo Da snorted and said, "Drive Fan back to southern Xinjiang, I'll be annoyed when I see him."

Xiao Heng smiled, gently peeled it off, and then said: "This dress must have been made by your fiancée, right?"

"Ex-fiancee, ex!" Huo Da strongly emphasized.

Xiao Heng was surprised, "It's really him?"

Hoda: ...

Madam!He was tricked!

-

Who was the most powerful person in the Yuan Dynasty?Of course the emperor.

With an imperial decree from Xiao Heng, the two garrisons in the Northwest and Mobei began to put away the wool at the border "without doing their jobs".

The temperature in the north gradually dropped, and there was not much fodder for cattle and sheep. Therefore, the garrison easily exchanged salt, grain, etc. with the herdsmen for a large amount of wool.

Smart and well-connected businessmen like Jardin, keenly smelling opportunities to make a fortune, also began to actively exchange pickles for wool.

It is worth mentioning that in the Western Regions, the bean paste from Jia’s pickle shop is much more popular than the food of the garrison!

As a result, the sheep on the northwest grassland ushered in the first "naked" winter in their life.

And those wools traveled long distances to the Central Plains, and without exception, they were sent to the same place - Yujia Village.

Su Ye looked at the carts of wool placed on the grain drying ground, unable to recover for a long time.

"How is this going?"

Holding the sword in his arms, Huo Da asked instead: "I told you to make more wool top machines, have you done it?"

Su Ye nodded. He thought that the emperor wanted to promote it, so he specially ordered more than ten sets to be rushed.

"Where's the spinning wheel?"

"I did too."

Huo Da pursed his lips and showed a smirk, "I'll leave the wool to you. Gu's thick wool clothes cost [-] yuan each, and I'll pick them up in a month."

Su Ye: (⊙o⊙)!

Is this the legendary "door-to-door business"?If you don't make money, you don't make money!

However, before he agreed, Yu Feng stood in front of him and said coldly, "Go aside, we won't do it!"

"Heh!" Huo Da stretched his fingers and snorted, "You've gone crazy, haven't you?"

Huo Da straightened his back and confronted him, refusing to give in.

"Why, do you want to make gestures?" Huo Da's fingers made a "clicking" sound.

Yu Feng didn't back down, "Give and gesture!"

So, two equally tall and strong men went to the side to "gesture".

Su Ye happily directed people to unload the wool, install the top machine, move the spinning wheel, and cut bamboo sticks. He was very busy.

It took a long time before Yu Feng came back with a green and red face. Although his appearance was a bit horrible, the corners of his mouth reached to the base of his ears.

Su Ye looked at the gray sweater on his body and raised her eyebrows, "Did he return it to you?"

"I won it back!" Yu Feng smiled as proudly as he could.

-

During the meal, Su Ye heard Yu Feng talk about the situation in northern Xinjiang, and only then did he know Xiao Heng's purpose in making sweaters.

Every autumn and winter is the time when Tatars invade the northwest border most frequently.

These people are extremely fierce and shameless, often when the defenders are not paying attention, they rush into the walls of the Han people, and run away after one round, and they can't even catch up.

In October, when the pastures were withered and the Tatars were restless, Xiao Heng actively prepared military supplies and was determined to fight a war.

Su Ye was a little worried, "Now that the war in the Central Plains has just subsided, if there is another war in northern Xinjiang, can it afford it?"

"Finally have to try."

Yu Feng picked out a small ball of bean paste, spread it evenly on the steamed buns, and handed it to Su Ye, "The Tatars are really hateful. His Majesty was stationed in the northern border and saw the suffering of the people with his own eyes. The misfortune is completely removed.”

Su Ye knew very well that the scourge of the frontier could never be eradicated, but since it was a military supply, he would naturally not hold back.

So, he asked people to rush out several wool top machines and spinning wheels, and then hired all the nearby villagers who were free to work at home.

Gula's wife, A De, took the women to wash the wool, Su Ya'er taught everyone how to wind wool tops, and Xiao Xia's sister-in-law led the young daughters-in-law to spin.

And Su Ye needs to teach the sweater weaving method as quickly as possible.

For a while, the huge grain drying field, spacious dining room, riverside, and under the eaves became their workplaces. Everyone talked and laughed while working, which was not only efficient, but also did not feel too tired.

It took only half a month for Su Ye to complete the amount Xiao Heng requested.

As for the finished products, although the craftsmanship is uneven, they have a common feature-thick enough, big enough, and warm enough.

Xiao Heng was naturally very satisfied.

Next, there is the order from Jardin.

Jia Ding made it clear that he wanted to sell in the wealthy circle, and Su Ye decided to take the high-end route.

So, he discussed with Su Ya'er and the others, and selected a group of well-crafted women from the working women, from the tops, to the needlework, to the style, everything was thoughtful.

After Jardin saw the finished product, he was naturally pleasantly surprised.

Sange Jia touched the delicate sweaters and said with a smile, "It's so good, I can't bear to sell it."

Jia Ding was also full of smiles, "I think it took a lot of thought to come to Xiaoye, and the originally agreed price is not suitable."

Su Ye declined, "It's just that the aunts who do the work are better at work, and it doesn't cost much. As for the price, it is as much as we have agreed."

Jadin naturally refused.

In this way, one wanted to give more, and the other refused to take it. In the end, Jardin accepted these sweaters at the price of three pennies each.

Three strings of money is enough for an ordinary family of five to spend for a year, but now, it is only used to buy one piece of clothing.

Seeing the heavy boxes of money, the villagers sighed with emotion—their little fairy boy turned out to be a little golden boy who attracts wealth!
