Da Jin

Before Zhou Fuli left, he also left an idea of ​​"Dajin brand thermal clothing" for these aunts to study by themselves.

After all, Sima Yu's cashmere sweater had too high a requirement for the cashmere thread, and it took so many aunts to spend so much time to make one piece, which was not suitable for mass production.

Sima Yu took the face towels and bath towels and almost rushed to the Longqing Hall.

only……

Where they passed by, those guards pulled out their knives in a hurry, "Where is the monster..."

Before he finished speaking, he quickly changed his words, "Your Majesty"

What clothes is His Majesty wearing?

Apart from being weird at the beginning, why does it feel pretty good?

For beautiful things, even if it is the first time they see them, human beings always have a very unified aesthetic view, which is called public aesthetics.

Sima Yu looked at the sweater on his body, ignored it, and just wore it like this.

A sporty boy in a woolen sweater, walking on the promenade of the palace is quite weird enough, even the little father-in-law and the little lady-in-law on the road forgot to salute, if they would have been beaten before, of course no one pays attention to them now , all eyes are on the little emperor.

Zhao Xuanwu, who was following beside him, had a complex expression on his face, and finally sighed. When passing by a young eunuch, he said subtly, "If you don't want to suffer the consequences, let her stop all actions against His Majesty. That's all."

He has witnessed the true value of wool with his own eyes. To be honest, he still can't believe it. The previously useless wool can produce fabrics comparable to Persian carpets.

Now as long as the minimum price is exchanged for wool, His Majesty will be of great merit to Da Jin, and if you make trouble with the fact that His Majesty beat up the Daliao Mission, you will only bring yourself a shame.

Zhao Xuanwu, the hussar general of the Jin Dynasty, was only loyal to His Majesty and the Jin Dynasty all his life. He went to the battlefield at the age of 13 and led the army at the age of 14. He has been defending the Jin Dynasty all his life. No one can doubt his loyalty.

But that crazy woman in the palace was his closest relative after all, no matter what he couldn't see her sink into the most bleak situation.

People are complicated. It is too simple to judge a person only by good or bad.

The little eunuch shrank his eyes, and suddenly raised his head to look at Zhao Xuanwu, what does Second Master mean?

It's a pity that the man in front of him doesn't have the slightest expression anymore, he is the hussar general of Da Jin who represents iron blood and heroism as always.

The little eunuch gritted his teeth and ran towards the Empress Dowager's bedroom with his calves upside down.

Qingning Palace, Empress Dowager Zhao, whose real name is Zhao Xuanying.

Because Sima Yu succeeded to the throne a little early, so the queen mother is only in her early thirties, plus she has no children, and she is very well maintained. One beauty.

The Zhao siblings, Xuanwu and Xuanying, are heroic and good at fighting, and the other is beautiful and intelligent. They were called the Shuangbi of the Jin Dynasty when they were young.

Zhao Xuanying frowned, her voice was quiet, "Why did General Zhao say such a sentence inexplicably?"

He looked down at the trembling little eunuch.

The little eunuch quickly replied, "Second Lord was next to His Majesty at the time, and the younger one didn't dare to ask."

Zhao Xuanying touched the back of her hand. There was obviously a round white mark on the back of her hand. It was when Sima Yu entered the palace. a piece of skin.

Up to now, she still seems to be able to feel the pain on the back of her hand, and she still remembers Sima Yu's green eyes like a wolf.

Every day when I dream back at midnight, I will definitely dream of Sima Yu holding a sword and addicting to his mother.

Difficulty sleeping.

It stands to reason that she is the Empress Dowager of Dajin, and Sima Yu is His Majesty of Dajin. They value filial piety in Dajin, so Sima Yu has to come to greet her every now and then, but the fact is that Sima Yu has only seen her once in the three years since he entered the palace. .

Zhao Xuanying sighed, many things were doomed three years ago, maybe this is fate, she doesn't fight for anything, she just wants to get what should belong to her.

Called an old nanny to the side, "Order it, let it go."

This time is indeed a rare opportunity, but she believes that General Xuanwu will not harm her, he is his half-brother's twin brother.

"By the way, check it out and see what went wrong."

Zhao Xuanying was originally a smart person, she had a premonition that something must have happened beyond her control.

At this time, Sima Yu had already rushed into the Longqing Hall.

In the Longqing Hall, His Majesty the Old Majesty, several prime ministers, and the assistant government were discussing how to resolve the matter of the Daliao Mission.

To be honest, they didn't even want to give Daliao a single grain.

But every time Daliao sent a mission, there would be a large army overwhelming the border. There was no doubt that the news had already come from the front two days ago.

They are betting that Da Jin will not dare to fight.

Da Jin is weak, and if he refuses to give food, he will face the possibility of the destruction of his family and country.

Year after year, Dajin has spent such "begging for perfection".

But this year, Daliao's demands were really too much. They asked for three times more food than in previous years. Moreover, they took advantage of the "bloodshed at the city gate" incident and insisted that they had been humiliated by Dajin and must be compensated.

Daliao froze to death a lot of people, cattle and sheep last winter, and they were planning to ask for more food, but Sima Yu handed them one without any excuse, so it's no wonder they would compromise.

Sima Yu broke in at this time. If he had caused such a disaster in the past, the old emperor would have jumped up and cursed immediately.

To be honest, the old emperor is also tired. These two dogs have caused him some strange troubles all day long, and each trouble is bigger than the other. Not long ago, the little saint was bumped into a pillar. It was the little sage who chose to calm down, and now he beat up the Daliao Mission.

See how bad his heart is.

But now that Sima Yu broke in, the few people were completely silent.

It wasn't that they didn't have the energy to reprimand him, but the sweater on Sima Yu's body was too attractive.

What is this thing wearing?

Several pairs of eyes just looked at Sima Yu directly.

As soon as Sima Yu came in, he shouted excitedly, "Father, it's okay to give them food..."

wow.

The old emperor felt that he could stab his own son to death now.

Several ministers flushed with anger, "Your Majesty!"

These ministers are not young, but now the sound almost lifted the roof off.

See if this speaks human language?

Sima Yu was startled by the sound.

Seeing that the old emperor was looking for something to kill him, Sima Yu hurriedly said, "Father, I have a solution to those Daliao missions."

He felt that if he didn't say hurry up, his body would turn black and blue immediately.

"Really, father, listen to me first, this time we not only don't need to give food to Daliao, but we can also cheat Daliao people's food."

Several ministers were shaking their hands with anger, what is His Majesty talking about?

They tried their best to think that they could give them less food, but His Majesty actually said that not only did they not need to give them, but they also asked Daliao to pour them food?

His Majesty is afraid that he is crazy, and he can no longer describe it as whimsical.

Zuo Xiang Wang Yong also had a dark face, "I want to hear, how did Your Majesty get Daliao to give us food?"

He was extremely angry, but he was not in such a hurry. Since His Majesty was so reckless this time, the old emperor would naturally punish him. They didn't bring any persuasion this time.

Sima Yu thought to himself, of course he has a solution, Zhou Fuli explained it clearly to him.

Passed the face towels and bath towels to everyone one by one, "Let's take a look at this first."

A few people started, and then stopped talking.

I thought in my heart, isn't this a rare thing brought by those Hu merchants or merchants from the Western Regions?

The thing is a good thing, look at how soft it is, they don't even have such a good material in Dajin, this thing is a rare commodity, and it can be worth a lot of money.

It's just that at this time, His Majesty still only thinks about having fun?

Even the old emperor began to doubt whether it was wrong for him to put Sima Yu in that position so easily when he insisted on going his own way.

He felt that no matter how rebellious Sima Yu was, it was still in his blood. As long as he studied hard, he would learn how to govern the country.

He was about to scold him with all his strength, but suddenly Sima Yu said, "We made this by ourselves just now."

"How? Is it better than a Persian rug?"

"They're made of wool, that useless wool."

"Daliao has a lot of sheep. Since we have to give them food anyway, why not let them exchange it with useless wool."

"We weave warm clothes out of wool and sell them at ten times and a hundred times the price. They are short of warm clothes for winter in Daliao, so they will definitely buy them."

"That is to say, our food has only gone to Daliao for a while, and in the end we have to return to our Dajin twice."

Exchanging grain for wool, and exchanging wool products for more grain, is a huge profit, as Zhou Fuli said.

Even he understands this truth, he doesn't believe that these old foxes don't understand.

In the entire hall, only Sima Yu's voice remained.

The old emperor and several ministers were stunned.

What is His Majesty talking about?Did His Majesty make this high-grade and expensive fabric in their hands just now?

"It's impossible." The old emperor was the first to say, he still has some understanding of the textile industry in Dajin.

Several ministers also nodded, "Your Majesty, don't deceive us."

On the contrary, the method of exchanging food just now is quite interesting.

Sima Yu thought to himself, why are these two smart people who usually talk to themselves so pedantic now.

He completely forgot, and he couldn't believe it at first.

Sima Yu rolled his eyes and said to the outside, "General Xuan Zhao came in to answer."

"Zhao Xuanwu will never cooperate with me to lie to you. If you don't believe me, you can ask him. He has been by our side for the past few days and can see clearly."

Zhao Xuanwu walked in.

The old emperor and several ministers glanced at each other.

With Zhao Xuanwu's personality, it was indeed impossible to cooperate with the little emperor in lying.

what happened?How do you feel that the little emperor said it so firmly?But this is obviously impossible.

Wang Yong thought for a while, since Zhao Xuanwu came in, so what if he asked, "General Zhao, Your Majesty said just now that the high-grade cloth we have is made of wool, but is it true?"

Zhao Xuanwu cupped his hands, "Indeed."

As if he was still convincing himself, he added, "For my own eyes, His Majesty and Zhou Taifu made these fabrics from wool in the Garment Bureau."

Silent.

Then there was an uproar.

If...if wool could really weave such fabrics, wouldn't it be worthwhile for them to exchange grain for wool?

Now Daliao doesn't know the value of wool, that is to say, they can exchange a small amount of grain for a large amount of wool.

Then they sold the woolen products to Daliao, which lacked warm clothes. This is not the same as what the little emperor said. Instead of giving Daliao food, they made a fortune.

After a while, Sima Yu stood in the middle of the room, surrounded by a circle of people, all ministers supporting the government, the old emperor and several prime ministers.

He was fumbling here and there on the woolen sweater on his body.

"It's also made of wool. It's the first time I've seen such softness and comfort in my life."

Sima Yu: "..."

The minister who was indifferent to him before is now too enthusiastic?

Look, hold on to his clothes.

This is the clothes that Zhou Fuli got for him after he didn't sleep for a few days.

Sima Yu hurriedly taught a few people to try washing their faces with the handkerchiefs they were holding, and only then did they get rid of a few senior ministers who almost hung on him.

It's also quite interesting for a few people to squat there and wash their faces.

The softness and texture of wool products, as well as the warm touch, completely conquered several people.

"It's a bit extravagant, such a good thing is actually used to wash your face."

"Your Majesty also said that the big one is... used to wipe the body after bathing. It's extravagant."

Sima Yu rolled his eyes, "What's so extravagant, it will be something made by us Dajin ourselves in the future."

"..."

Now that there is a countermeasure, and the exchange of grain for useless wool, I believe that Daliao will not refuse anyway.

Now it's time to see how to get more wool with less grain.

After discussing for a while, they came to a unified conclusion, and the old emperor was unambiguous. First, he asked people to go to the Garment Bureau to block the news. In any case, the people of Daliao could not know the importance of wool.

The second is to send people to announce the Daliao Mission, and send them away as soon as possible, so as not to stay and find out anything.

Sima Yu was about to leave. Usually, he would not be allowed to directly participate in matters related to the government. I despise him for being young and ignorant. Hey, he understands.

But suddenly, Wang Yong said, "Your Majesty, please stay and meet the Daliao Mission."

Several prime ministers and several assistant ministers looked at each other, and said after a while, "That's very good."

They have no reason to refuse. Sima Yu is one of the leaders in this matter, so there is no reason for the leader not to participate.

Sima Yu was also stunned, this made him decide the state affairs, did he keep the flowers blooming to see the moonlight?

But right away he didn't have time to think about it, because...

"Your Majesty, we must pretend to be weak later."

"You must pretend to be bullied to the end before you rise up to resist."

"Don't let the other party think that we have taken even a little advantage."

Sima Yu: "..."

In the past, these old officials faced him with integrity, as if they were standing on the moral high ground and looking down on ordinary people, and they were almost inseparable from Zhou Fuli.

Why did everyone suddenly become so insidious and cunning in private?

Sima Yu blinked, looking at the prime ministers and assistant ministers who were spitting and teaching experience, he thought that these people had changed.
