Guan Zi was almost sold, so Jian Shi didn't want to tantalize people, and directly took out a ball of soft, white, white cotton from the sleeve and displayed it in front of everyone.

"That's what I said." Jian Shi raised his chin and said, "This is a kind of crop called cotton. It can be planted, and the white fruit we need is what we need. If it is used as an autumn and winter The stuffing of the clothes is warmer than wearing four or five silk shirts."

Huang Qian was full of doubts: "Is this true?"

Does this little mass really keep you warm?

"Of course it's true." Jian Shi patted Qi Xie's arm with a grin, and said triumphantly, "Boy, show them the clothes you're wearing today."

Ministers: "..."

forget it.Call it cub or something.

Let's just pretend that my ears are deaf, I can't hear, I can't hear.

Qi Xie was not angry when he called him such an intimate nickname in public, and obediently obeyed his wishes and lifted up his wide and big sleeves, revealing his thick arms wrapped in cotton jackets.

"Master Jian, this is..."

All the ministers got up and surrounded him, looked at Jian Shi's encouraging eyes, and tremblingly stretched out their hands to touch it twice.

Soft, thick, and the inside of the underwear is full of warmth...

Everyone looked at Jian Shi's eyes immediately changed. If everyone wore such clothes, how could they have the trouble of waking up in the middle of the night in winter?

"May I ask Mr. Jian, how is this object made, how much cotton is needed, and how much is the total cost?" Huang Qian couldn't wait to say: "If the people of Qi State have one piece of these clothes, why worry about freezing to death on the road in winter? bone?"

Jian Shi had never heard of such a thing before, and said in surprise: "What? We in Qi country still have people freezing to death in winter? What's going on, tell me quickly."

Huang Qian: "..."

Oh, bad, you have been told not to let anyone slip up!

Huang Qian, who stabbed the big basket, closed himself instantly, his small eyes glanced and glanced, and he met Qi Xie with a smile that was not a smile, his eyes full of coldness, it seemed that a basin of cold water hit him in the cold winter, and he was still surging. The fire in his heart was extinguished immediately, and his body couldn't stop shaking.

Seeing his appearance, Jian Shi knew that it was Qi Xie who was threatening people secretly, so she couldn't help but excuse him and said, "It's okay, Mr. Huang, let's talk." Zhuantou gave the culprit a hard look, "The person who wants to make you never mention it There will be no opinion."

"Then... the old minister just said it?"

"Say it."

"Actually, it's not just the Qi State. Every vassal state makes many people feel miserable when winter comes. Every year in winter, many people die due to illness or lack of wood for heating." Huang Qian looked at Jian Shi Frowning, the topic changed: "But since you came to Qi State last year, son, to help the emperor manage the government together, and plant the sweet potatoes that are quite abundant, the number of people who died in Qi State last winter was six times less than in previous years. more than success!"

"Then what happened to the remaining four floors?" Jian Shi asked.

"What's left...basically the families with no family, or those without a man, orphans and widows with no one to help them, so naturally they can't make it through." Huang Qian said normally.

In this world, there is no one to support the family, and there are countless people who starve to death, freeze to death, and die of illness.

The death toll last winter had already surprised them.

After thinking about it for a while, Jane realized the crux of the problem. In essence, this is caused by the patriarchal society. There is no man in the family. , just relying on a woman to do things, and can't find a suitable job, can't make money, but if there is a dizzy person, he has to live and die.

Jian Shi wanted to change this situation, but she also knew that it was impossible to do it now, so she could only compromise: "Actually, the cotton I told you today is what I plan to sow next year. It is necessary to ask women to fix them in one place with spinning thread. If we want to make money this year, we should organize people to build fire kangs, which will not only earn money, but also allow the common people to have a warm winter.”

"But what is this kang?"

"The bed below is hollow and has hot air circulation. It has a stove mouth and a smoke mouth. The stove mouth is used to burn firewood. When the smoke and heat generated by the firewood pass through the wall between the kangs, they heat the stone slabs above to generate heat, which makes the kang generate heat. The smoke is finally discharged outside through the chimney from the chimney of the heated kang. People sleep on it, as long as there is firewood burning in the stove, they will not be woken up by freezing all night.”

Huang Qian's eyes lit up when he listened: "Young master is really a great talent! Why can't we blunt people think of such a wonderful method. It's really wonderful, wonderful!"

Except for those post houses in Yongyi City, which family doesn't have a stove?If it is true as Mr. Jian said, build a bed-like place behind the stove, can you sleep warm and whole in winter?

But not everyone agreed as Huang Qian did. A courtier stood up and said, "How can this be done? Isn't that man on fire?"

Jian Shi explained: "You don't have to worry too much. Its stove is completely placed outside the house. It uses the hot air to flow in the partition wall to achieve the effect of keeping warm, not directly on the fire."

Hearing his explanation, everyone nodded in admiration.

But Huang Qian didn't forget the most important thing: "I don't know what is the total price of this craftsman, the materials needed, and the cost of construction?"

"I don't know about this matter for the time being, but let's talk about it first. This skill can only be done by the court. This kang repair is not something that everyone can take for granted. If there is a mistake in the middle, it is easy to lose it. People smothered to death inside the house."

"As for the price, it depends on what the other party wants."

"If you want a simple style, you can give it at the price of all the items added up. If you want a complex and gorgeous style, the price will naturally be doubled." Jian Shi smiled at Huang Qian and said, "However, if you want to come to Qi State Squire, merchants will not be short of these silvers, right?"

Don't think that he doesn't know, there are many wealthy businessmen from other three states in Yongyi City now, if they circle around and brag, the money they get out is not a small amount.

In this way, they can make a lot of money from it and fill the treasury!

God knows that they need money everywhere for the past six months!

Jian Shi blinked at Huang Qian calmly, Huang Qian's small eyes were instantly rounded, and then he showed a smile that you understand, I understand, everyone understands, "Don't worry, Mr. Jian, the price, I will naturally follow suit. "

Hey, he can't let go of this great opportunity to make money like this.

Not to mention the problem of style, whoever will repair the heated kang first and who will repair it later, and send a few people to repair it, and it can be completed in a few days.

I think their lords have poured blood several times, so it's time to get back to the original this time, right?

Jane didn't dawdle, and when she gave Huang Qian and the minister of the Ministry of Industry each a copy of the construction drawings of the heated kang and the matters that need attention, she couldn't help but said: "Well, when it's time to repair it, repair my bedroom first." One, it doesn’t need to be too big, just as soon as possible.”

Huang Qian grinned, "It's natural."

If anyone is missing, Mr. Jian is indispensable.

The relationship between him and the emperor is known all over the court. Didn't he repair him for his own emperor?

After talking about the kang, Jian Shi gave them the cotton seeds and left the hall happily.As for the matter of him exchanging his popularity for cotton?Of course it's impossible!

With a heated kang, are you afraid that winter will be difficult?

Qi Xie chased them away from the main hall, and after the two left, all the ministers in the hall surrounded Huang Qian and the minister of the Ministry of Industry to besiege.

"Hey! Master Huang, I have a 70-year-old mother and a one-year-old grandson at home, please fix it for me first!"

"Me, me, my family too!"

"And I……"

……

But in two days, the topic of the people in Yongyi City suddenly changed, from "how is your potato growing", "how is the yield of sweet potato in the field" to "hey, your family went to the government office to register to repair the kang. ?”, “Do you want simple or medium?” and so on.

The repair of the kang was intentionally publicized by the imperial court, but anyone with some money at home registered with the yamen early, waiting for craftsmen to come and build it.And it doesn't matter if you don't have money, he is allowed to use work as relief to deduct the cost.

Only in this way, craftsmen are not enough.

It takes at least five craftsmen a day to repair a kang for each household. Yongyi City has more than 2 residents and thousands of households. How can this be done by craftsmen in the palace before winter comes?

When Huang Qian talked to Jian Shi with a sad face, Jian Shi patted his head fiercely and smiled: "Oh, it's all my fault, I forgot about it at the beginning. You will release the word tomorrow and use this kang repairing skill To pass it on to the common people, of course, a certain fee must be paid, and whenever a household is repaired with a heated kang, a certain percentage of money must be paid to the imperial court. .”

"Wonderful, wonderful, what the young master said is very true, I will do it now!"

After being pointed out by Jian Shi, Huang Qian instantly understood the truth, turned around and left in a hurry to tell the Ministry of Industry the news.

As for those craftsmen in the Ministry of Industry, there is nothing they can do if they are not happy. Who told you that you have fewer staff.For the household department, this is simply a great opportunity to make money!

There are many poor people in Yongyi City, but in the matter of repairing the kang, a group of bourgeoisie have been exposed.Ordinary households have four or five households, more than a dozen, just to repair a kang, but those who have money in their hands don’t worry about it at all, and ask for several repairs with a wave of their hands, striving to have it in every room.So the Ministry of Industry had to send someone out to explain clearly that the climate in Yongyi City is humid, and the kang is comfortable to sleep in autumn and winter, and you must still sleep on a bed in spring and summer, but you must not lose your own bed.

After receiving such popular science, the common people nodded and praised King Qi as a good king, and he always thought of them.
