Chapter 289 Benefits of Cotton 1 update
When Sun Yu left, he was still wearing the down jacket. Xu Huaiyi waited for him to go away, quickly closed the door and ducked into the RV, and took a combat shower.
After changing his clothes, he went to the canteen to eat. Others were one step ahead of him. Li Yunting had already helped prepare the food. After he sat down, Zhao Sanyou asked curiously, "What does Master Sun want from you?"
Xu Huaiyi said casually, "Care about my test scores and see if there is any possibility of improvement?"
Zhao Sanyou clicked his tongue due to toothache, "Just say it straight and beat me in the next exam."
Xu Huaiyi was happy, "That's not possible. I don't have that ability yet. Why don't you give me some slack and let me win once and show off to the master?"
Zhao Sanyou patted him on the shoulder, "Although we are good brothers, brothers must also settle accounts clearly. It is impossible to give in. Humility in the competition field is not a virtue, it is a humiliation to the opponent."
Xu Huaiyi said, "It's okay, I'm not afraid of being humiliated by you."
Zhao Sanyou, "..."
What about the warrior's pride and integrity?
The others watched the two bickering and enjoyed the meal even more. Only Li Yunting asked, "Where did you take a bath?"
Xu Huaiyi said with an unchanging expression, "In the dormitory, I mixed some warm water and wiped it. I have something to give to the master, and he went to the dormitory with me to get it."
This time it was Su Zhe who asked curiously, "What else can I ask Master Sun to pick up in person?"
Xu Huaiyi blinked, "It's not unusual for you. Aren't you wearing something like this?"
Hearing this, Su Zhe suddenly laughed, with a bit of joy in his smile, "I'm wearing the down vest. I've been wearing it since you gave it to me. It's light and warm, and it protects my chest." My back doesn’t feel cold outside in the morning or evening, and it doesn’t look bulky even if I put on clothes outside. The most practical thing is that when I practice martial arts, my skills become much more flexible, and I no longer have the feeling of being tied up with my hands and feet..."
Listening to his continuous praise, everyone else became curious. Wang Qiusheng pretended to be sour and said, "We are all classmates and friends, how can we treat one with favoritism? Only Su Qi is the only one, so what's the difference between us?"
As soon as he said this, Zhao Sanyou also asked, "Yes, yes, what's wrong with us? Or are we no longer good brothers?"
Li Yunting didn't say anything, but his eyes were dark and accusatory.
Meng Ping is the most honest and keeps his head down while eating.
Qiao Huaijin was absent-minded today, so he forced a smile and said, "I guess this down vest is a business that Brother Xu wants to cooperate with Su Qishao, right?"
Xu Huaiyi gave him a thumbs up, "Awesome, I guessed it right at first glance. The duck down that Brother Zhao gave me had not yet been processed. My wife made some of it herself, and it was just enough to make a vest. I would like to say 10,000 words." , it is better to wear it in person, then treat it as a display and give it to Su Qishao to test the effect. Only if the effect is satisfactory, there is a need for cooperation. "
Others suddenly realized.
Su Zhe asked, "So, those duck downs have been processed and made into clothes?"
Xu Huaiyi said, "It's not that fast. I made some to give away first. I brought some. After dinner, go to my dormitory to get them. Everyone has one, but they only have one."
After a pause, he said to Zhao Sanyou, "You provided the duck down for free, so I have prepared a few more clothes for you, as well as a few down quilts. You can take them back and give them to your family."
Hearing this, Zhao Sanyou was immediately overjoyed, "Hahaha, okay, then I won't be rude to you. From now on, I will give you all the duck feathers on my farm."
Xu Huaiyi emphasized, “You can send it away, but you must collect money.”
Zhao Sanyou originally wanted to refuse, but seeing Xu Huaiyi's unquestionable attitude, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Su Zhe rolled his eyes and said, "If business is good, I'll let people go around to collect duck feathers. Otherwise, I won't be able to provide the designated supplies, and I won't be able to make any money. Wouldn't it be uncomfortable?"
Xu Huaiyi asked, "Are you so optimistic about this business?"
Su Zhe nodded, "It's almost the same."
"What about price positioning?"
"It's naturally taller than silk..."
Hearing this, Xu Huaiyi frowned, "Do you know my original intention of making duck down? I just thought that silk cotton was too expensive and most people couldn't afford it, so I wanted to find a substitute. If it was more expensive than silk cotton, what would the people think? Isn’t it even more useless?”
Su Zhe understood what he meant, but in business, he said it very straightforwardly, "Huaiyi, business is not done out of kindness, you won't get far, duck feathers are not worth much, but if this business is successful, Well, just collecting duck feathers requires a lot of manpower. Processing and sewing also require a lot of manpower. The food, drink, and wages of these people have to be included in the cost. It is hard to say that it is more troublesome than silk cotton. You say it is so laborious. Is it appropriate if the clothes we make are sold at a low price? We can dilute the profits, but we cannot lose money to make a fuss."
Xu Huaiyi smiled bitterly and said, "I understand, but..."
Although Su Zhe did not agree with his concept of doing business, he appreciated his charity to the people and said with a smile, "People usually fill cotton-padded clothes with reed catkins and willow catkins without spending money. They can just save some in the spring and autumn, but those two things , no matter how much filling there is, it won’t have much protection against the cold. Silk cotton and fur are expensive, so most of them are reluctant to buy them. You think about them and want to make down clothing as a substitute. It’s kind of you, but it’s unrealistic. However, you Don’t be disappointed, there is also a kind of cotton that can keep warm and is cheap, which is suitable for them.”
Xu Huaiyi's eyes lit up, "Cotton? Do you have a purchasing channel for cotton?"
Su Zhe nodded, "Speaking of which, Emperor Jianwu once encouraged the Central Plains to plant cotton on a large scale, and the South to mainly raise mulberry silkworms. The two complemented each other, and the people of Dayong no longer feared the harsh winter. However, this policy was later implemented. It didn’t go well. It was difficult to change people’s ideas for a while. Most people still planted mulberry trees, because mulberry trees did not occupy fertile land, while cotton required serious land, which was troublesome and troublesome to manage. People were not willing to plant it, and only a lot of it was planted in the northwest. , the climate there is quite suitable, and we don’t get much harvest from growing food anyway, so we don’t have to worry about occupying the fields.”
Xu Huaiyi was full of expectations, "So?"
Su Zhe said proudly, "I have a caravan going in and out of the northwest, bringing our tea and porcelain. On the way back, I will transport more cotton."
Xu Huaiyi smiled and said, "Okay, okay, it won't take long. At least the people near the capital will not be short of cotton."
"Is cotton really as good as you say?"
"Of course, otherwise the first generation of founding emperors encouraged people to grow cotton. Cotton can not only keep out the cold, but can also be spun into cotton thread and woven into various cotton cloths. Although it doesn't look as noble as satin, it is comfortable to wear. I used to work in a cloth shop from a cloth shop. I found some Songjiang cloth in the store, which is cotton. It is soft and sweat-absorbent. You will know after wearing it once."
When he said this, the others became interested.
Anyway, it won’t hurt to give it a try.
