Chapter 1428 India Asan
When Chen Xu returned home, he took the cotton and cotton cloth he brought back from Li Shun's house and found that the backyard was quiet and his wife was not there. He asked a few little maids, but he realized that a group of people had gone out together, but he didn't know where they had gone.
Since a group of wives were not around, Chen Xu's joy of sharing cotton and cotton cloth was gone. After thinking about it, he took a carriage and headed straight to the Academy of Sciences.
Since Ying Shiman and others returned to Xianyang early last time, Chen Xu asked them to live in the city for safety reasons. After Chen Xu returned from the inspection this time, because there were too many messy work, he simply lived in the Grand Tutor's Mansion. In addition, the city was bustling and lively, and a group of women would go shopping together when they had nothing to do, so Chen Xu didn't care too much.
It is cold and the Academy of Sciences has been relatively clean recently. With the completion of the test factory office and the experimental building, most of the R&D tasks have been moved to the test factory.
The new office building is luxurious and luxurious, with a total of five floors covering an area of more than 20 acres, with concrete floors, snow-white walls, glass windows, public toilets, and each house is equipped with a stove and a complete set of new-style office desks and chairs. It is much more luxurious and comfortable than the dilapidated house renovated by the old palace of the Academy of Sciences. Therefore, before Chen Xu came back, the office building had just been completed and renovated, and all departments of the Academy of Sciences almost started to fight. Zhang Cang couldn't even hold back the situation and could only report to the First Emperor. Finally, the First Emperor arranged for the Shaofu Order Zhao Wei to take charge of the command, leaving the senior management department of the Academy of Sciences in the city, and all other R&D departments moved outside the city. Now the Academy of Sciences can be said to be only one shell left, and almost all those who are left behind are administrative personnel. They sighed all day long and wanted to go to work in the high-rise buildings outside the city.
Nowadays, being able to work in a high-rise building outside the city is the most worth showing off.
Even after Emperor Shiniu climbed to the office building for inspection, he was a little moved. He sat on the wheeled rotating seat in the office specially reserved for Chen Xu for a long time before leaving reluctantly.
This new seat, which Chen Xu calls the boss chair, has become a fashion, but because of the complex production process, it is expensive.
After Chen Xu came back, he went to the experimental factory several times and experienced the boss chair he designed. He felt very satisfied. He has applied for a patent and authorized it to a special wooden workshop for development and sale. He heard that the sales volume is pretty good. Many kings, princes and ministers bought one and placed it in the study room, and even the emperor asked the Shaofu to order a few specially in the Zichen Hall.
Compared with the hotness of the experimental factory outside the city, the Academy of Sciences is much deserted now. When Chen Xu came in, there were only a few imperial guards on duty at the door. When Chen Xu walked into the gate of the Academy of Sciences, several officials hurriedly put out their clothes and hats to greet him.
"Marty, it's cold, why are you here suddenly?" The leader was Sun Shujiong, the first secret art of the Academy of Sciences.
"Li Shun's delegation brought something good from the West. Help me find a few craftsmen who are proficient in textiles and making looms!" Chen Xu ordered, and an official immediately went to make arrangements. Chen Xu followed Sun Shujiong and others to the office to roast the fire and drink tea.
After about half an hour, weavers and craftsmen came one after another. Chen Xu threw the cotton and cotton cloth to them, and by the way, he also carefully explained the benefits of cotton and cotton cloth.
After listening to Chen Xu's explanation, the group of people were very excited and repeatedly discussed and studied the bag of cotton, which was only three or five kilograms and a few pieces of cotton cloth.
"There are a lot of differences between cotton and silk thread, and the toughness is much worse. The current spinning machines and looms need to be improved before they can be used. The most important thing is that you should study the method of quickly deseeding cotton seeds as soon as possible, because once planted and promoted on a large scale, deseeding is a huge problem. If it cannot be solved, it will drag down all links..."
"Mr. Marquis, I can't wait to find a solution, but the little samples you gave are too few, and it's only three or five kilograms in total, so it's not enough to plug the teeth!" A craftsman who was involved in the development of the loom said with a toothache on his face.
"It's indeed a little bit, but this was brought back by Li Shun's mission for a lifetime. You have already seen the situation of the mission. It's God's eyes to be able to come back alive. These cotton and cotton can be said to be exchanged for tens of thousands of miles away with their lives. If you think it's too little, then you go and get more. I'll exchange one or two gold for you with one or two cotton!" Chen Xu pounded the table unceremoniously.
One liang of gold and one liang of cotton is indeed so expensive that it is unreasonable, but it still takes life to come back. Thinking about the miserable situation when Li Shun's delegation entered the city, the group of people were all so embarrassed that they dared not speak.
"No matter how many samples are, no matter how difficult it is, you must solve the problem of loom and seed removal as soon as possible. Experimental experiments must be verified through design. There are fewer samples and machines can be made smaller. Why do all your heads look like elm-wood lumps? There are not only these cottons. There should be some in the group's greetings. You will ask the officials of the Ministry of Rites tomorrow and take them all back for experiments."
Faced with Chen Xu's request, the group of people could only put their heads on like chickens pecking at rice, and ensured that they would study hard and complete the task after they went back.
After bombing away a group of craftsmen, Chen Xu felt that he was still unsatisfied. There were indeed too few cotton samples. I don’t know how credible Li Shun’s statement was. Whether the body poisonous messenger that came with him really had cotton seeds.
If you don’t take it or lose it on the road, then the planting and promotion of cotton will have to be delayed for at least two or three years.
It’s not that Chen Xu can’t afford to delay this little time, but that Chen Xu is a little worried that Qin Dada can’t see it.
Next year will be the nine-year disaster that Guiguzi mentioned. According to historical records, Qin Shihuang also passed away this year. From this we can see that his fate and Qin Dada are actually closely linked.
The stump is he or she or she or she or she or she or she or she?
Or maybe they're done together?
Chen Xu grinned and took a bus to the Dianke Office Inn.
Originally, when the princes were united, the vassal states had posthouses to entertain envoys from each other or to send pledged protons to each other. However, since the Qin Dynasty swept across the six kingdoms, the First Emperor thought that the world had no other civilized countries, so the posthouse used to entertain the princes was abandoned and sold to merchants to make a Quyuan, which is the most lively ever-night street in Xianyang. The Dianke Ling, one of the nine ministers, has also become the least powerful among the nine ministers.
However, after conquering the Hungarian Hu and Yuezhi, the feudal system was re-activated, and the role of the Dianke Office became more important. Therefore, the court chose another place to build a large inn, just near Zongshan Villa, covering an area of more than 50 acres, and only two hundred meters away from Tianjie, Never Sleeping.
Although it was still daylight, the streets were still full of traffic and people were crowded with people, and people were talking with various accents and wearing different costumes. There were officials, merchants, gentry, celebrities and scholars. Among these music gardens, in addition to the beautiful ladies who can sing and dance in various places in the Qin Dynasty, there are many women with exotic styles in the Xiongnu, Donghu, Yuezhi, Yue tribe and Western tribes. The song and dance music inside is no longer the familiar silk, bamboo bells, chimes and light songs and dances, but the pipa, huqin and brisk Hu dance, and you can even see artists who are talking on bamboo boards.
Today's Great Qin is getting farther and farther away from the Great Qin in history. Apart from the emperor and some figures, the difference has reached a point where it is completely incomparable.
Chen Xu's carriage slowly drove past the intersection of the Inn Street. Through the glass window, he looked at the lively street and the faint music and dance coming from him. Chen Xu felt as if he had a sense of time and space disorder.
"Yu~~" While shaking, the carriage drove into the inn and stopped. The door opened. As soon as Chen Xu got off the car, the officials from the inn hurriedly greeted him and greeted him.
"I am here to see where the envoy of the Son-Piracy Kingdom who came with Li Shun's delegation was? Has it been properly placed?"
"Don't worry, everyone has been placed properly, and all the food, toilet, quilts and clothes are complete. Marquis, you don't know that these people are like local buns. They don't know that soap, toothbrush, tap water, no matter what, no buttons of clothes, and they don't understand what they say..." The officials of the inn followed Chen Xu and reported.
This is a natural and extremely superior way, and Chen Xu could only express his approval.
Damn it a few years ago, the entire Qin Dynasty, from emperors to civilians, was also a native bun in Chen Xu's eyes.
Soon Chen Xu met several Indian San from the poisonous country.
The appearance and appearance are similar to the Indians I remember. They have dark skin and a thick headscarf wrapped around their heads. However, everyone was wrapped in thick sheepskin mattresses and shivering around the stove.
In their hearts, there must be thousands of grass and mud horses jumping around. Dama Daqin is so cold. India has never seen anyone wearing sheepskin clothes all year round.
Seeing Chen Xu coming in accompanied by the inn officials, a group of San Ge who were slapping teeth and swaying quickly stood up.
"This is the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, Hou Qinghe, I will come to visit you!" The inn officials introduced at a relatively slow speed.
