After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister Chapter 179

    As long as the refugees have a bite to eat to survive, they will be safe and secure. Not everyone loves to do things.

    Reclamation of wasteland, construction of water conservancy, step by step, the tens of thousands of acres of land that has been opened are all recorded under the name of the government, and Mu Wanqing has turned it into a collective farm and unified management.

    The refugees who reclaimed the wasteland changed their minds, signed an agreement with Happy Farm, and became long-term employees of the farm, and their lives settled down.

    Forage seeds are sprinkled and watered, and they will survive.

    We will plant half wheat and half cotton next year.

    Time flies, and the cotton in Shuimu Farm can finally be picked. Mu Wanqing personally rushed over and came with a wave of technical guidance.

    Cotton picking is all manual and requires a lot of manpower.

    Mu Wanqing picked a piece of pure white cotton with her own hands and put it in her hand to examine it, she was very excited, what kind of cotton is this, it is clearly white silver.

    The cotton that was picked was transported to the drying field. After a few days of drying, it was completely dry. The next step was to clean the cotton.

      There is also a rocker arm and three openings.

    Sun Tongzhi was stunned, "County Lord, what is this?"

    "It's a rolling mill specially used to remove cottonseeds." Mu Wanqing thought it wasn't advanced enough, but the materials and techniques at the moment were limited, so it could only be done to this extent.

    Next, everyone saw several strong men hitting the strings with four-foot bows to remove impurities and make the cotton soft.

    Three strong men jointly operate a 40-spindle double-sided spinning car, a total of 20 spinning cars, 60 people work together, and the yarn is continuously output. This spectacular scene makes everyone Look straight. Note (1)

    The loom itself has its own, but Mu Wanqing made some improvements to make it more powerful.

    Watching the stack of white cloth take shape, Sun Tongzhi couldn't help but touch it, it was soft and delicate.

    He was overjoyed, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed that cotton could be made into such a soft muslin."

    He finally knew why Mu Wanqing was able to secure the title of county head with cotton, which is softer and more comfortable than linen.

    The key point is that the cost is not high, and it can be widely promoted, which is a great boon to the poor people.

    It is true that the merit is in the society, and the merit is in the future, so there is no exaggeration.

    Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, "This white folded cloth can be dyed, comfortable and breathable, and can be made into a warm jacket, quilt, cotton shoes and cotton hat, so that poor people can survive the cold winter."

    Sun Tongzhi's heart was fiery, until at this time he was finally convinced, "The county chief has infinite merit. I thank you for the people."

    "Your Majesty has already thanked me." Mu Wanqing looked happy, "This month each official will issue two pieces of cotton cloth."

    "Thank you, county lord." The officials present were all overjoyed. The Qingping county lord was very atmospheric. Since she entered the Dusi Mansion, the first thing she did was to set up a canteen to provide working meals.

    The standard of working meals is one meat, one vegetable and one soup, which is clean, hygienic and delicious. It is provided to all officials for free.

    For this, most of the officials said good things about her.

    Now it has released cotton cloth, so this year you don't have to buy new clothes, and you save a lot of money.

    Mu Wanqing rubbed the cotton cloth, her expression focused and gentle, "I have a wish, Liangcheng cotton cloth is all over the world, please help me."

    The officials were in awe, bowed and saluted in unison, "I have a wish, I dare not ask you."

    Soon, cotton cloth was placed on the counter of Mu's Firm. The colors were colorful and the price was not expensive, which immediately attracted the attention of the people.

    I entered the store and saw all kinds of cotton products, I couldn't take my eyes off. When I asked about the price, it was affordable, buy it! Buy now!

    All cotton products were sold out as soon as they were put on the counter, and those who came late could only sigh.

    The clerk said in a timely manner, "We provide a reservation service, you can place a half deposit and pick it up tomorrow."

    When they heard this, everyone rushed to pay the deposit, for fear of missing out.

    In a teahouse not far away, Mu Wanqing looked at such a grand occasion, with a smile on her eyebrows.

    She knew it would be like this, and cotton would have a huge impact on Daqi.

    Mu Ziang, who was standing beside her, looked proud, "sister, you succeeded."

    Only mu Ziang is free to come out with her today. Second Master Mu is going crazy. Everything on Shuimu Farm is under his control.

    The cotton cloth workshop came into being, the cotton product workshop and the cotton tire workshop opened together, enough for him to be busy.

    Mu Zicheng is still busy reclaiming wasteland and can't escape.

    "That's right, who am I." Mu Wanqing's eyebrows were curved, a little too small.

    Mu Ziang couldn't help laughing. No matter how her status changed, she was still the lovely little sister.

    "Yes, my sister is the best and the pride of our family."

    Mu Wanqing immediately reciprocated, "Second brother, you are also very good. You took good care of the refugees on those farms, and there was no trouble."

    mu Ziang narrowed his eyes with a smile. It doesn't feel good to be praised by others, but what his sister praises is beautiful.

    "Those refugees are also good people who are safe and secure. By the way, how do you plan to resettle them? Let them stay for a long time?"

    Mu Wanqing has long thought about it, "Refugees are allowed to settle in Xiliang, with two acres of land per person, tax-free for two years."

    I didn't mention it before, just to see the reactions of all parties.

    Mu Ziang was sincerely happy, "That's great, although the two acres of land are small, it is guaranteed not to starve to death, and I can work part-time in my spare time. This year's work is very easy to find. As long as you work hard and work hard, there is a way to live.”

    Mu Wanqing took a sip from the teacup, "Second brother, do you still want to be a soldier?"

    "Think," mu Ziang nodded without thinking, which has always been his dream.

    He stopped by his sister's side temporarily to learn and gain more experience. It was because my sister had promised him that she would pick the most suitable time to help him fulfill his dream.

    He believed in his sister.

    Mu Wanqing respects everyone's choice and tries her best to pave the way for them, "Then I will arrange you to be the general flag under the command of Lord Zeng, how about that?"

    Mu Ziang grasped the key points sharply, "General Banner? Sir Zeng is going to be promoted?"

    Seeing his reaction like this, Mu Wanqing was a little satisfied, not as naive as before, "Well, because of merit, I will be promoted to Hundred Households, and the vacant position will be arranged for you."

    Mu Ziang is both happy and worried, "Is it not good for me to suddenly drop into the air?"

      Ability, if you can manage thousands of refugees, you can naturally manage fifty subordinates.”

    She has been honing her father and brother, hoping that they will stand alone as soon as possible. If they are not capable, she will not force them to that position.

    If virtue does not match, there will be disaster.

     "Of course, that's all I can do. The rest is up to you. Whether you can subdue your subordinates depends on your means."

    Mu Ziang is still confident in this point, "following you for so long, I have learned a thing or two no matter what."

    He was sincerely grateful, "Sister, thank you for always teaching me and paving the way for me."

    He felt that he was useless, and he had to make his sister worry about everything, but he was a brother.

    Mu Wanqing saw his thoughts at a glance, and took his arm with a smile, "We are brothers and sisters, what are you polite? I hope that one day, when someone mentions me, it is not only Qingping The county owner is also mu Ziang's sister."

    They are all excellent, and over time, they will become dazzling people.

    She prefers the stars to shine more than January.

    Mu Ziang's eyes brightened and his blood boiled, "Okay, I will try to be your pride."

    Mu Wanqing comforted him with a word, "Then I'll wait, by the way, you ask the brothers in the clan if they want to go to the army with you, and I'll arrange it together. already."

    Fighting brothers, father and son, let's help each other.

    Mu Ziang happily answered, and remembered one thing, "will you attend this graduation ceremony?"

    "Of course I will, I must be there for the Mu family's first graduation ceremony." Mu Wanqing is looking forward to this day. There are ten graduates in this class, all of whom are the best in the family. A group of outstanding people can officially become social animals.

    In fact, this group of people had been thrown by her to the farm for an internship before, helping the preparation of three new workshops, and they did a great job.

    When they officially graduate, they can transfer to regular jobs and take charge of a whole bunch of things.

    From the outside came the voice of the guard, "County Lord, Second Master Guo and Boss I Pan are here."

    "Let them in."

    Two men in brocade clothes walked in one after the other and saluted, "I have seen the county chief."

    “Second brother Guo, how is your business recently?”

    Second brother Guo? Boss Pan was stunned, Guo Er still has such dignity? I really can't see it.

    He subconsciously looked at the famous Qingping County Lord, a beautiful girl of unparalleled dignity, who would have thought that she was still the acting chief of Liangcheng.

    Hey, how come you are kind?

    Guo Er is much more comfortable, smiling and smiling. "Thanks to the county owner, the cotton cloth is sold out in other places. I want to order another 100,000 pieces of cloth."

    Guo's sales channel is very strong, each store throws 1,000 horses, and the 20,000 horses previously ordered were sold out quickly.

    Mu Wanqing spread her hands and looked regretful, "No, this year's number is limited, and the planting area can be expanded next year."

    Guo Er was stunned, "Ah, so soon?"

    Mu Wanqing's seeds are not enough this year, so she can only hope for next year, at least three years before she can realize the freedom of cotton seeds.

    "People rushed to make a batch of cotton-padded clothes and cotton shoes to the front line. The consumption is huge, and there is not much inventory, but I will save more for you next year."

    Guo Er was extremely helpless, "That's fine, I'll order 300,000 pieces of cloth."

    Mu Wanqing pondered for a while, "This amount is a bit large, I can't guarantee it, let's order 100,000 horses first."

    More cotton will be planted next year, but the premise is to ensure sufficient food and the red line of cultivated area cannot be touched.

    So, more wasteland.

     Boss Pan on the side was dumbfounded, how could he do such a business?

    Others can't wait to sell more, but this county owner does the opposite, will he do business?

    The output can't keep up, so try to find a way to make a variety of cotton, there are so many areas in the Xiliang area.

    Mu Wanqing glanced over and nodded slightly, "I heard that Boss Pan rented two shops in Specialty and Custom Street to sell tea bricks?"

    Boss Pan is a businessman who knows the rules. When he arrived in Liangcheng, he handed a letter of worship to the county head office as soon as possible, and bye bye to the dock.

    He didn't expect to see the county magistrate either. He never thought that there would be such a surprise.

    He replied respectfully, "Yes, please take care of the county lord in the future."

    Seeing that his attitude was okay, Mu Wanqing's smile became stronger, "I intend to build a cotton distribution wholesale market in Liangcheng. Boss Pan has experience in this area. Do not hesitate to teach me.”

    Boss Pan is not surprised, it must be Guo Er who said, "You are too polite, I just help people manage the tea market, and I don't have any experience..."

    Mu Ziang exclaimed strangely, "how do I remember that Boss Pan is managing for his prefect brother-in-law?"

    Boss Pan noticed him only then. He glanced at him, and the more he looked, the more he felt deja vu. It was strange, what happened today, everyone looked familiar.

    "Who is this?"

    Mu Wanqing took the initiative to introduce, "My second brother, Mu Ziang."

    Boss Pan was awe-inspiring and bowed, "So it's the second young master Mu, you look at Mianshan, have we met?"

    Mu Ziang:…

    It turned out that he didn't recognize it.

    "Not only have we met, we have also lived under the same roof for more than a month."

    Boss Pan looked at Mu Ziang and Mu Wanqing blankly, a few pictures flashed in his mind...
