Cotton is not produced in abundance in the Great Zhou, only in Northern Liao there is cotton, and warm items are scarce and expensive.
Things like sable and fox fur are even more expensive, and ordinary people can’t afford them, let alone soldiers fighting the enemy, it is even more impossible for them to wear them.
The cotton that Shangjing shops can produce is still not enough to produce warm clothing.
Qin Yinnuan took out a piece of clothing made of goose feathers and duck feathers, which she called a down jacket.
It really keeps you warm.
Besides, duck and goose feathers are not very valuable, and this method can also be used to make temporary warm supplies for the border.
She also suggested looking for minerals, things like coal.
The function of this coal is the same as that of charcoal, and it is even easier to preserve than charcoal and produces a stronger fire.
If this kind of thing could be found, it would be a divine relic sent from heaven for the Great Zhou.
Duke Yang didn't know whether such a thing existed, but he also hoped to find it.
...
...
So the emperor asked Qin Yinnuan and Qin Sujin to be in charge of this matter, and he did not object.
In addition, Qin Yinnuan also proposed a method of transporting supplies in a portable manner, such as dehydrating and compressing vegetables and pasta, which is convenient for carrying and storage, etc.
These new things are really something I have never heard of, but they are a revelation.
The emperor was very impressed with Qin Yinnuan and said that he would let the people from the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of Works cooperate with her to make these things.
Qin Wu was not surprised after hearing this. She concluded from Qin Yinnuan that she was not from this world. She didn't know what world she came from or what kind of person she was.
But, since she said it, it exists in their world.
She is not an ordinary opponent, and it is not easy for Qin Wu to defeat her.
Especially since she has the ability to be used, the emperor will save her life no matter what.
The Duke's Mansion and the Marquis of Qi's Mansion were not in the same direction, so Qin Wu and Duke Yang's carriages went their separate ways.
As soon as I stepped into the Qi family's gate, I saw Wang ordering people to carry boxes out.
Seeing Qin Wu, Wang looked at her and raised her voice, "Hurry up and send this 180 dan of betrothal gifts to the Qin family. Don't make any mistakes."
The Qi family only gave Qin Wu eighty boxes of silver and other items as a betrothal gift.
The betrothal gift given to Qin Yinnuan is now more than twice that of Qin Wu.
Wang spoke so loudly in front of Qin Wu, obviously trying to provoke Qin Wu.
Qin Wu, however, didn't want to even look at it. As for the things given by Wang, even the three hundred boxes of betrothal gifts had nothing to do with her, as the money didn't come from her.
Qi Lanxin was released by Wang, but she had to follow the betrothal team to the Qin family to apologize.
Qin Wu's lost dowry must be obtained from Qi Lanxin. If Qi Lanxin cannot give it out, the bad reputation will naturally fall on the Qi family.
In order to avoid being pointed out, Wang asked Qi Lanxin to solve the problem herself. If the Qin family wanted to go back and accuse her of stealing Qin Wu's dowry, she would let Qi Lanxin die in the Qin family and never come back.
After all, she is just a concubine's daughter, her reputation is ruined, and she is of no use to me.
If the Qin family forgave the debt she owed, the Qi family would give her food to eat.
As the mistress of the Qi family, she had already shown mercy to Qi Lanxin.
Qi Lanxin watched Qin Wu walk past her.
She had a slender figure, and was wearing a white fox fur coat with a red edge. A ruby hairpin was pinned in her black hair. Even with her simple attire, it still couldn't conceal her stunning and extraordinary temperament.
There was nothing in her eyes, but her cold and aloof aura was faintly oppressive, which was completely different from Qin Wu who used to smile and try to please Qi Xiuzhe.
And she was as miserable as a rat in a sewer, and she didn't even dare to look him in the eye.
Qi Lanxin lowered her head and clenched her fists tightly.
The resentment towards Qin Wu in my heart grew deeper and deeper.
Wasn't it just because she said a few bad words to her? She was going to turn her life into hell and ruin it like this!
Qin Wu is so vicious. It’s all her fault. Everything is over for her now!
She won't let her go.
"What are you standing there for? Why don't you help move things?" Seeing Qi Lanxin standing there motionless, Wang scolded her harshly.
"Yes, mother."
"Don't call me mother!" Wang's eyes were filled with disgust and contempt. If the Marquis hadn't spoken, she would have beaten her to death. "It's a shame to have someone as dishonest as you in the mansion!"
Qi Lanxin bit her lip, trying hard to hold back the tears in her eyes, and hurriedly followed the others to move things.
Wang was furious when she saw that Qin Wu was so arrogant and didn't even say a word to her.
If she hadn't gone to serve the Queen Mother and had the Queen Mother as her backer, how could she allow a junior like her to show disdain in front of her!
When Qin Yinnuan comes home, I must find a way to drive Qin Wu out of the Qi family!
Qin Wu is out of confinement today, and it is also the full month of little Nuonuo’s birth.
She invited Gong Shang and a few other close friends to hold a full-month banquet for little Nuonuo.
Little Nuonuo doesn't need a father like Qi Xiuzhe, nor does she need the Qi family. In the future, she will raise her well and find her a husband who can protect her forever.
"My Lord, the bodies of the people who assassinated you have been thrown into the Dali Temple. I think Qi Xiuzhe should also know that it was your handiwork. I'm afraid he will not stop fighting against you."
Dongzhi whispered to Yan Shiyi who was tidying up his clothes.
A black tight-fitting suit outlines his muscular figure, and his black hair is tied up with a red headband, making his originally calm and handsome face even younger and more handsome, with a touch of youthful sunshine.
He hid the Buddhist beads on his wrist in his cuffs and fastened his cuffs with sleeve bands. His whole outfit was neat and tidy, with a hint of secret guard style.
But the slightly declining momentum makes people feel the inestimable nobility of the superior.
"Yeah." Yan Shiyi tried his best to restrain his aura and responded softly to Dongzhi.
In the past few days, someone came to assassinate Yan Shiyi every day, but they were all killed by Yan Shiyi with one sword in the throat.
Dongzhi also found out which organization the killers belonged to and arrested the leader of the organization.
It is impossible for Qi Xiuzhe to find a killer in the Great Zhou to assassinate Yan Shiyi, so I guess he will do it himself at that time.
Qi Xiuzhe hired a killer to kill Yan Shiyi, and didn't want to do it himself, which obviously meant he didn't want to completely fall out with Qin Wu.
After all, Qin Wu is protecting Yan Shiyi so much now. If he takes action himself, there is no guarantee what Qin Wu will do to him.
Of course, Yan Shiyi had been keeping his troops in place, waiting for Qi Xiuzhe to take action against him personally. This would make Qin Wu completely hate Qi Xiuzhe, and it would be best if she could fight to the death with Qi Xiuzhe and stay away from him forever.
Although Qin Wu said that she wanted to divorce Qi Xiuzhe, Yan Shiyi was still not sure whether Qin Wu still had feelings for him and was reluctant to let him go.
After all, the relationship between childhood sweethearts is not easy to break up.
In this life, he wants to make it impossible for Qi Xiuzhe and Qin Wu to be together.
"Today is Xiao Nuo's full moon banquet. You say Qin Wu will be happy if I give this to Xiao Nuo, right?" Yan Shiyi picked up the rocking bed on the ground and asked Dong Zhi.
The rocking bed is arc-shaped and has a wooden horse structure, but it can be slightly modified to become a bed for lying down.
This was made by Yan Shiyi himself with the help of top design craftsmen.
Looking at the wound on Yan Shiyi's finger that had not yet healed, Dong Zhi's heart ached. He couldn't understand why his master had to hide his identity to protect Qin Wu?
A man like my master can have any woman he wants, so why does he have to come and be someone else's bodyguard and be ordered around by others?
With his status, just one word from him and no one dared to attack Qin Wu, and even had to please Qin Wu.
But if he really loved Qin Wu, why did he ask someone to help him find another woman?
If he didn't love Qin Wu, why would he treat her like this? And trying to please her in every way for the sake of her children?
Moreover, this woman already has a husband and children. To be honest, there is no way she can be worthy of the master.
I can't figure it out during the winter solstice.
But since his master did this, there was no reason for him, as a subordinate, to question it.
