Li Shiming and the others were getting more and more curious about this Green Dragon Village.
A bumper harvest of rice and warm clothes. Could this be the legendary Peach Blossom Land? At the very least, they could see that the commoners did not seem to worry about food or clothing. A sense of satisfaction hovered above the village.
It would be great if all the people in the world could eat and wear warm clothes like the people in this village!
As the emperor, Li Shiming was more and more eager to know what was going on in the Azure Dragon Village!
At this moment, the old man standing beside him suddenly took out a snow-white wool ball from his pocket and said with a smile,
"Ah Ping is insensible and offended a few distinguished guests from the city. My surname is Luo, and I'm the chief of the Azure Dragon Village.”
Then, he handed the wool ball to Li Shiming and said proudly,
"This is the ball of yarn in Ah Ping's hand just now. Esteemed guests, please feel free to take a look.”
As the head of the village, Grandpa Luo naturally had some ability to recognize people. One look at the extraordinary auras of the few people in front of him and he knew that they were distinguished guests from the city.
Xu Chen's plan was to weave the excess wool into sweaters and sell them to the nobles in Chang 'an at a high price. These people in front of him were probably wealthy nobles!
Wouldn't it save them a lot of trouble if he could sell the goods to them?
Li Shiming took the wool ball and weighed it in his hand. The smile on his face grew wider as he handed it to Zhangsun Wuji. The group of old men started fighting over it again.
This time, everyone could flip through it in their hands for a while.
"Uncle, I would like to ask you, what is the origin of this treasure? It actually has such a good warming effect?”
Li Shi Min was like a studious student at this moment, and he quickly voiced out the doubts in his heart.
"Haha, this item is called wool thread. It is made from wool. There is no need to mention its warmth.”
Village Chief Luo laughed and unbuttoned his clothes, revealing a snow-white sweater!
He was wearing very thin clothes, no more than three pieces, but he did not look cold at all, just like a martial arts master who wore a single layer of clothing for the winter.
The Duke was amazed by the appearance of the woolen sweater. They were already fantasizing about how comfortable it would be if they wore the woolen sweater.
"Oh, uncle actually has one too. This is really strange.”
Li Shimin was slightly surprised. He quickly walked forward and touched the woolen sweater. He suddenly exclaimed,
"It feels so smooth, even better than silk!”
Most importantly, he felt a surge of heat, as if it was locked in the wool sweater and would not leak out at all.
No wonder this old man was so thin. This woolen garment could be compared to ten linen garments!
In ancient times, the conditions were harsh. The common people basically wore coarse linen clothes, and some even wore paper clothes! All of them looked like dumplings, and their teeth couldn't stop chattering.
He had no choice. This hemp garment didn't keep him warm! Guo Dong relied on her spirit.
"I've seen wool before, but that beast's fur is so complicated. How can it be made into such a thick thread, just like silk?”
Li Shi Min looked at the wool and asked.
He had eaten mutton the most in the palace, so he naturally knew that the wool was very warm. However, at the same time, the wool was also a difficult thing to handle. It was soft and fluffy, and if it was placed for a long time, it would easily stink and rot.
Every time, the palace would treat it as garbage. Who would have thought that this wool was a treasure?!
"Haha! Honored guest, you might not know this, but in our village, there is a young genius Qilin son. He is comparable to the Crouching Dragon Phoenix Chick of the Three Kingdoms period.”
Village Chief Luo stroked his white beard and said proudly,
"He invented the wool processing machine! Put the wool into the machine, and the snow-white wool will come out. We just need to knit it again, and it will be a warm and frost-resistant wool sweater!”
"This old man's dress was made by the old woman at home last night!”
Grandpa Luo was beaming with joy when he introduced Xu Chen. However, he wasn't bragging. It was the truth.
"Oh? With such a god, he could actually turn waste into treasure?!”
Li Shi Min was instantly excited. He turned to the few High Dukes behind him and said passionately,
"If this woolen sweater can be promoted to the common people of the world, so that the common people can spend the winter warmly, wouldn't it be a great merit?!”
"The person who invented the wool processing machine has boundless merit. In my opinion, he should be made a marquis! What do you think?"
The common people had two problems that had been going on for thousands of years. Now that someone had stepped forward to solve them, even if it was only a part of it, in Li Shimin's opinion, it was a great contribution to the country!
"We agree."
The few High Dukes said in unison. Even Zhangsun Wuji, who was usually the strictest, did not object.
He also felt that the inventor of this wool processing machine was qualified to be a marquis!
Li Shi Min was quite pleased with himself after receiving the approval of the officials. He had never thought that he would make such a pleasant discovery just by coming out for a walk.
However, there was a bigger question in his heart that needed to be resolved.
"Uncle, I still have a question that I hope you can answer.”
Li Shiming respected Village Chief Luo very much. He bowed slightly to him, then pointed at the large piece of land and asked,
"This year, the grain harvest in other places is not good, and taxes cannot be collected. Why is it that your village has such a bumper harvest? I really can't figure it out.”
Compared to the woolen sweater, the rice was more important to him.
Eating was always more important than wearing clothes!
With this question, the few dukes turned their gazes over and stared at Village Chief Luo without blinking. They were also eager to know the answer.
Seeing this, Village Chief Luo only smiled, shook his head, and sighed."
" This is not something I can explain. After all, I'm just following the instructions to farm. I only know that this kind of rice is called 'hybrid rice'. Other than that, it's no different from farming in the past. If you want to ask, you have to ask the owner.”
"Who's the real owner? Could it be that young genius?"
Li Shiming grabbed Village Chief Luo's hand and asked,
"What's his name? Is he called…Xu Chen?"
He had a feeling that this young genius was the medical grandmaster, Xu Chen!
Not only him, Zhangsun Wuji and the others also had this guess in their hearts. As for Yuchi Gong, his entire body trembled.
Could it really be his savior?
Village Chief Luo was slightly stunned and said in surprise,"
"How did you know? That's right, his name was Xu Chen.”
