Qin Xie came in with the betrothal gift list. After seeing the palace lady and the others had left, she stepped forward and said, "This is the betrothal gift we sent. It's full of all kinds of rare treasures. We can't keep them all, so we have to take some to the palace for you. But the dowry prepared for you has been listed, and it has to be delivered tomorrow. How can we make it in time?"

Qin Wan smiled and placed the betrothal gift list in Qin Xie's hands: "Mother, since it is for you, you can keep it. My dowry is generous enough."

"But they are not as good as what the prince and His Majesty have prepared." Qin Xie really wanted to bring all these betrothal gifts to Qin Wan to bring into the palace. This is the foundation for her daughter to gain a foothold in the palace in the future.

Qin Wan smiled and said, "If you still want to give it to your daughter, then keep it at home. There's plenty of time to bring it in slowly. But the palace is full of mixed people, so I think it's better to keep these good things at home."

With that said, Qin Xie no longer had to worry about how to pack the dowry so that she could fit all these goodies in. "Okay, then don't go out for the next two days. You're getting married the day after tomorrow. Rest up at home and get enough rest."

"Okay." Qin Wan agreed obediently. Once she entered the palace and became the Crown Princess, it would not be very convenient for her to leave the palace and go to places like Xiaoxuezhuang, so she had dealt with all the matters early in the morning.

Especially the papermaking workshops. Nowadays, the papermaking workshops are mainly focused on researching new papers instead of producing large quantities of paper, so the progress is slow, but they have also produced several types of paper.

In addition to the paper suitable for painting last time, several types of paper that are thin and not easy to fade have been made. In particular, they are cheap. If these papers are released, they will definitely have an impact on the current paper market.

Another thing is that they made an extremely soft paper that is very absorbent and tough. It just can't be used for writing, but it's very comfortable to use for wiping your mouth or going to the toilet.

Qin Wan couldn't help but think of the sanitary napkins made by Bai Wanyi in her previous life.

She had used it in her previous life, and it was really useful. This kind of paper could be used to make a simple version of a sanitary napkin.

Nowadays, women use menstrual belts made of cloth strips by wealthy families and throw them away after use. Poor families sew a long and thin bag and fill it with wood ash. Not only is it troublesome to replace, but the cloth strips can also cause disease if used repeatedly for a long time.

In addition, most doctors nowadays are men. Even doctors who are good at gynecology are only good at conditioning and preserving the fetus during pregnancy, and are mostly good at postpartum care.

Some unspeakable secrets are only known by some older midwives who know some pharmacology, but they are not professional doctors, and the condition will often get worse.

Professional doctors are all men. Which woman would reveal her unspeakable secrets to a stranger? Therefore, some women can only endure their hidden pain on their own.

So as soon as she discovered these soft papers, Qin Wan asked people to make a lot of them, and used these papers to replace wood ash and pad the menstrual belt, so that they only needed to replace the paper.

Apart from these, Qin Wan also had the idea of ​​making sanitary napkins. However, cotton is very expensive nowadays, and fine cotton cloth is not affordable for ordinary people, let alone using cotton to make sanitary napkins. How can the cost be controlled?

Qin Wan set her sights on hybridization and grafting, determined to increase cotton production, and then find ways to improve the materials used to make sanitary napkins, such as the cloth used on the outside, or whether paper could be used instead of cotton for the inner wrapping, and how to replace it.

She was not afraid of the expensive things, because Qin Wan knew that the young ladies were rich and people would buy such convenient things no matter what. However, if she wanted to benefit all women in the world, she had to find a way to reduce costs and use the profits from high-priced sanitary napkins to offset the losses caused by low-priced sanitary napkins.

In the final analysis, the business model is similar to that of Yuchuan Tea and Piaoxiangju.

Sanitary napkins are much more complicated to make, so Qin Wan was busy with everything else except this one, which caused her to be unable to really let go until the eve of her wedding.

The next day was the day to deliver the dowry. The bride, Qin Wan, could relax a bit, but the men of the Qin family had to get busy.

Because she got married, all the men of the Qin family who were away came back.

There was no need for servants to help carry the dowry. Just these young men carried the dowry from the Qin family into the palace.

Xie Qing, dressed in new clothes and with an unconcealed look of joy, waited at the gate of the Eastern Palace. He watched the ceremonial officer usher Qin Wan's elder brother, Qin Can, into the gate. He took the lead and saluted, "Brother!"

Qin Can was stunned by the word "big brother". He quickly lifted his clothes and prepared to greet the prince: "Your humble servant greets His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

After he finished speaking, he was unable to kneel down because Xie Qing was holding his arm tightly and he couldn't kneel down at all.

At the first meeting, he, the elder brother-in-law, had a preliminary understanding of the prince's strength.

Xie Qing was beaming: "Brother, we are all family today, so let's just talk about family etiquette."

He stood on tiptoe and looked at the long wedding procession. The men carrying the dowry were full of energy and vigor, and their identical clothes made them look even more imposing.

Xie Qing smiled broadly: "Are these all the sons of our Qin family? What a generous person! Come in quickly!"

Xie Qing pulled Qin Can out of the way.

Qin Can pointed at the people carrying the dowry and introduced them one by one: "This is the second son Qin Yan, and this is the eldest son of the second uncle's family..."

There were several hundred people, all of whom were direct and collateral descendants of the Qin family.

Qin Can said with a hint of boasting and pride: "There are still some people who want to come, but they are unlucky. They either didn't play or didn't get the chance to draw."

Just a few words revealed the fierce competition among the Qin family's sons to raise the dowry, and also revealed the current population of the Qin family.

These are still young and strong people. If the rest of the women, middle-aged and elderly people and children are added, what a prosperous scene it will be.

The Qin family's move is also to show outsiders the family's strength, which also means that they will no longer stay behind the scenes and will come out into the public eye again.

The empress, concubines and clan members who were waiting in the Eastern Palace saw the heavy box fall to the ground, and their eyes fell on the ironing samples on the shelf.

Nowadays, a yard is a dowry, which is replaced by a tile. This tile, placed on a tray, becomes a dowry.

However, Qin Wan directly used hot patterns to represent tiles.

Her shelf is three layers high, with three hot samples placed on each layer. In other words, this shelf can hold nine courtyards.

That’s not all. There are several such racks. A large part of them have patterns on them, not courtyards, but mountains, forests and land, with crisscrossing paths. This means that the dowry is a farm!

These are the things that are displayed in the open. The rest of the big items such as furniture, which are lifted one by one and can be used to make up the number, are all gone!

Qin Wan's dowry, apart from the house, shop and farm, was all made up of boxes, one heavy box after another, as heavy as the footsteps of the person who delivered the betrothal gifts yesterday, one step after another, heavy and heavy.

Lu Linglong, a court lady standing among the concubines, was so envious when she saw the dowries.
