Opening the book, the first article is about what cotton is.

The second article is about the advantages of clothing made of cotton, mainly comparing linen clothing and cotton clothing.

Obviously, cotton-padded clothes are targeted at these two levels of clothing.

The third article is about suitable locations for cotton planting.

"Kanto?"

"It is Guandong, especially Henan, Yan, Yu, Qing, Xu, and the area along the river that is most suitable."

Wang Chen's mouth twitched and he couldn't help but look up at Guo Pei.

You might as well just say that it is the current core place of Wei State.

Probably feeling a little embarrassed, Guo Pei coughed:

"Of course, the Liangzhou area is also suitable, but we can't get involved there."

The people who were already a little moved suddenly became in an uproar again:

“Since the suitable place for growing cotton is in the Central Plains, what does it have to do with our state-bordering?”

"This King Feng Gui, even if he is lying to others, he doesn't mean to lie. He still treats us as fools, right?"

Guo Pei laughed again, bent down for the fourth time, took out a few more paper tickets from the box at his feet, flicked them a few times, and made a clicking sound.

Wang Chen couldn't help but glance at the box, a little curious, how many things were in the box?

But seeing Guo Pei holding up the ticket, he said:

"This is a sample cotton field ticket that the Han Dynasty Joint Reserve Office is preparing to launch. From now on, as long as everyone buys this ticket, they can sign a red and white double contract with the imperial court."

"In the future, when the Han Dynasty acquires the land of Guandong, they can use the money to exchange for land to grow cotton in Guandong."

In the eyes of everyone, this is even more nonsense.

"Don't say whether Ji Han can finally capture the east side this time. Even if he captures it, does this land exist? Do they really want to grab the land?"

Upon hearing this, Guo Pei sneered:

"The former Han Dynasty worked for more than a hundred years to relocate wealthy households to the place where they became the capital..."

As soon as these words came out, even Wang Chen, who was holding the notebook, trembled in his hands!

"The imperial court plans to reintroduce the mausoleum system?!"

The so-called mausoleum system is the mausoleum-keeping system created by Emperor Gaozu:

A mausoleum city was built near the imperial mausoleum in Guanzhong, and wealthy households from Guandong were moved to live here.

It has been practiced for more than a hundred years.

Gaozu Changling, Emperor Hui's Anling, Emperor Jing's Yangling, Emperor Wu's Maoling, and Emperor Zhao's Pingling were all established as cities and counties, hence the name "Wuling Yi".

The so-called Wuling young people refer to the children of wealthy people in Kyoto.

The Lingyi system can not only weaken the mighty power of Guandong, but also play the role of "strengthening the foundation and weak branches".

At the same time, it can also replenish Guanzhong and defend against the barbarians in the north.

It plays a huge role in politics and military.

This influence would last until the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Of course the people in the room had no idea the impact would last so long.

But as long as they think about the similarities between the present Ji Han and the early days of the founding of the Han Dynasty, they will feel frightened.

Therefore, in the eyes of today's people, it is not unimaginable if Ji Han really wants to re-implement the mausoleum system.

Underneath the fear is anger:

"Is the imperial court really going to do this?"

"How poisonous King Feng Gui is!"

Unexpectedly, Guo Pei shook his head again:

"It's not Feng Duhu, but Pei Gong who plans to write a letter, suggesting that the court restore the tomb system of the former Han Dynasty."

Pei Qian?

What the hell?

After all, the Pei family is also a wealthy family in Hedong. Is Pei Qian crazy?

If this matter really gets out, no matter whether this negotiation is successful or not, there will probably be many people who want to stab Pei Qian, an old man, to death.

Guo Pei didn't care what everyone was thinking. He looked around and said solemnly:

"Everyone, we are not the only ones who know about the cotton clothes and cotton cloth. There is also news from Hedong!"

Having said this, he emphasized his tone again:

"In the first two years, there was no land in Hedong, but in the past two years, why did the government have land to distribute to the people?"

There is civil unrest in Hedong, why can't there be civil unrest in Guandong?

There is no need to say it too obviously, but it already made everyone look horrified.

What Wang Chen cares more about is Pei Qian's thoughts:

"What is Pei Wenxing doing for this reason?"

As the head of the Pei family in Hedong, Pei Qian actually wanted to kill the Guandong family. Is this different from a lunatic?

Or do you think your life is too long?

Guo Pei smiled mysteriously and pointed at the book in his hand:

"The answer is at the end of this book."

Part 4: Prospects for growing cotton.

Before Wang Chen could think about it in detail, his eyes widened just after seeing a few data.

At this time, he already understood why Pei Qian was like a mad dog and wanted to kill the Guandong clan.

But when Wang Chen suddenly closed the notebook with a "snap", he looked at Guo Pei in disbelief, and asked with a trembling voice:

"Is what is written here serious?"

Guo Pei seemed to have expected this question a long time ago, and he patted his cotton-padded clothes suggestively:

"The clothes have already been made, is it possible that there are still some fake ones?"

As he spoke, he looked around at the crowd and continued: "Next year, thirty acres of cotton will be planted in Chang'an as a demonstration."

"Feng Duhu said that the cotton blossoms are as white as snow, which is extremely beautiful. Anyone who is interested can go and watch it."

The real thing is right in front of us, plus Feng Duhu’s invitation, that is to say, this is most likely true?

Wang Chen looked at the cotton-padded clothes and breathed heavily.

If so, then Zhong Nan is right.

What kind of mulberry is this?

This is simply planting money!

But Wang Chen suddenly stood up and said loudly:

"Reviving the Han Dynasty is our unshirkable responsibility. For the powerful families in the Central Plains to support Wei thieves for their own selfish purposes, it is an unforgivable crime!"

Everyone was shocked!

Is this another crazy one?

This is said as if your Wang family has nothing to do with the Guandong family, but comes from the Yongliang wealthy family!

Besides, even if those guys from Yongliang were completely devoted to Ji Han, they weren't so cruel to Guandong, right?

Wang Chen probably felt that he had overreacted, so he coughed lightly and shook his notebook:

"Everyone, come and take a look."

Needless to say, everyone has long wanted to know what heinous thing the Wang family saw in the book, which made him hate the Guandong clan so much.

The quick hands took the notebook from Wang Chen's hand, while the slow hands had to lean over to read it.

After a while, someone could not help but scream: "One billion dollars!"

The people crowded together suddenly became commotion. I don’t know whether they accidentally bumped into the person holding the notebook, or whether the person holding the notebook was too excited.

"Hiss!"

The most critical page was torn in half due to excessive force.

"Into your mother!"

Someone was anxious on the spot: "What are you going to do? Tear it up after reading it? You don't want us to know, do you?"

"I don't!"
