As soon as he said this, the entire courtyard exploded. The village women all touched the wool and discussed,
"Wool? This wool can be made into clothes? Can we really rely on it to survive the winter?"
"Come, touch it. This wool is really warm to the touch. My hand is covered inside, and it's not cold at all!”
"Sigh, it's really warm!"
True gold was not afraid of fire. As long as anyone had touched this warm wool, they would definitely not doubt its ability to keep warm. Immediately, everyone began to fight for it, one bundle after another.
Although they were in a hurry, they really listened to Xu Chen. The family of three only took one bundle, and the family with a few elders only took two bundles at most.
"Tsk tsk, look at how good this wool is. I don't know how to knit clothes, but it seems that I have to learn it well!”
Grandpa Luo stroked the wool on the ox cart and said with a smile,
"Little Chen, I've been worried these few days. It seems that we still have to rely on you to solve the problem of our village.”
"To be honest, I want to give you the position of village chief!”
His words came from the bottom of his heart. Every autumn and winter were the times when he was most worried. If the grain could not be harvested, people would starve. If the winter was too cold, people would freeze.
This wasn't just for show. People would really starve to death and freeze to death!
Every time he faced these things, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness. He felt that he was useless and that he could not do a good job as the village chief. He often blamed himself and could not sleep.
Until Xu Chen arrived.
How many years had it been since Xu Chen came to Azure Dragon Village with the refugees? Not to mention curing the sick and saving people, when the autumn harvest came this year, the villagers 'stomachs were full. Now that they had wool, they would not suffer from the cold anymore.
If such a talented person was not the village chief, who would be the village chief?
"Haha, Grandpa Luo, don't joke around. If I want to be an official, I can even enter the court. I really don't think much of your position as the village chief.”
Xu Chen waved his hand and teased,
"I saw that Uncle, Auntie, and Grandpa Luo treat me well. I have feelings for Green Dragon Village, so I thought of ways to help you. In a few days, I will promote the woolen sweater to the entire Chang 'an.”
He didn't even care about the position of the Marquis or the Crown Prince of the Tang Empire, let alone the position of the Village Chief.
"That's true, that's true. It's hard on you to be the village chief, haha.”
Grandpa Luo laughed heartily, revealing a mouthful of broken teeth. He was holding a bundle of wool in his hand as he waved goodbye.
He still had to go back and study how to knit this sweater!
After a short while, everyone had taken their wool. Everyone thanked Xu Chen and left happily.
In the end, almost a third of the wool on the ox cart had not been collected!
"These villagers are really simple. They said they couldn't take more, but they really didn't take any more.”
Li Chunfeng watched as the villagers gradually walked away and could not help but sigh.
The high-quality behavior of these villagers changed his impression of the rude country bumpkins.
"What kind of country has what kind of people. A country's culture is upright, and so are its people. The Great Tang was founded in a grand and majestic manner, and its ruler is a wise ruler.”
A sense of pride rose in Xu Chen's heart. He sighed,
"The common people of the Great Tang are all kind and simple people. They face the earth and dig for food. As long as they have a mouthful of food and warm clothes to wear, they are already very satisfied.”
Even in the later generations, the Great Tang was a symbol of the Chinese people. It was the most powerful dynasty of the Chinese people, known as the Great Tang!
When the Chinese went out, they all considered themselves as Chinese. The Chinatowns all over the world represented the Tang Dynasty, and its influence in the entire world had never waned.
Xu Chen was very glad that he was born in such a dynasty, a dynasty with infinite possibilities!
"You're right. The citizens of the Great Tang are the best citizens in the world, hahaha!”
Li Chunfeng smiled and drank the tea in his hand. He also took a bundle of wool and said goodbye to Xu Chen.
He had to go home and let his wife and children use such a good thing!
That night, everyone was sleeping soundly, but in Green Dragon Village, the candles were brightly lit. Almost all the housewives were working late at night to make clothes for the children.
The entire Azure Dragon Village was filled with a blissful atmosphere. It was happiness due to satisfaction.
The next day.
Although it was still a bone-piercing cold wind, it was a rare sunny day. Standing under the sun, one could still feel a trace of warmth. This time, many people ran out of their houses to bask in the sun.
As for Li Shimin, he had just finished his Imperial Conference and was about to dismiss his ministers and go back to rest. While the weather was good, he and Empress Zhangsun went to the Imperial Garden for a stroll. Suddenly, a eunuch walked up to them.
"Your Majesty, Duke of E has submitted this memorial."
The eunuch respectfully handed over a memorial and waited quietly at the side.
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and the others, who were about to leave, also stopped in their tracks, their faces filled with curiosity.
Wasn't Yuchi Gong recuperating at home? Why did he still have the time to submit a memorial?
Li Shi Min took the memorial and casually scanned through it. He suddenly smiled and said,
"This Jing De is also a person who knows how to repay kindness. That day when he was saved, he never forgot it. Now that he can get out of bed, he insists on going to Azure Dragon Village and personally pay a visit to thank that Mister Xu Chen. Haha, what do you think?”
He had been so busy recently. If Yuchi Gong hadn't mentioned it, he would have really forgotten about this matter. Now that it was mentioned, he was also interested.
"That Xu Chen is also a talented person, but there is no need for Your Majesty to come personally. That would be too grand. In my opinion, it is better to send an envoy with the Duke of E to announce his entry into the court.”
Zhangsun Wuji's expression was indifferent as he made a suggestion.
In his opinion, although Xu Chen was talented, he was not qualified to let the Emperor personally see him. That would be too ostentatious.
"What does Minister Fang think?"
Li Shimin smiled and turned to Fang Xuanling.
"When His Majesty opened his mouth that day, everyone knew that you were going to recruit talents. This is no joke. It's better for His Majesty to go personally. In the future, it might even become a good story.”
Fang Xuanling stroked his beard and said with a smile.
Zhangsun Wuji was far inferior to him when it came to understanding the Saint Heart, so he had guessed Li Shiming's intentions.
"It's been cloudy for days. It's not easy for a bright sun to appear. It's time to go out for a walk and relax…Good! Then let's do as you say and head to Azure Dragon Village!”
Li Shi Min nodded in satisfaction and ordered,
"Call a few more old fellows together. They've been locked up for many days. What are they tinkering with? Today, let's organize a trip between the monarch and his subjects!”
With his order, the whole palace was in motion. Several founding heroes who had not stepped out of their homes for many days could only follow Li Shiming's footsteps and lead the autumn tour army to the outskirts of Chang 'an.
