Comprehensive Qing wear good luck

Not to mention how powerful the "Eighth Prince Party" will be in the future, they are now hiding behind the eldest prince and developing themselves in a sneaky way. This move by Yinzhen and Le Shu can be said to have caught them off guard.

After all, the Eighth Prince is young and cannot compare with the experienced and meticulous Yinzhen. He also doesn't know that there is a woman with novel ideas named Le Shu in secret.

As for the Crown Prince, although the Eighth Prince has not yet found out that it was the "Crown Prince's people" who fanned the flames, he will eventually find out. This news cannot be rushed and is too easy to detect, otherwise it will make some self-righteous people doubt the authenticity of the news.

By then, the Eighth Prince will focus his fire on the Crown Prince who has damaged his reputation. If nothing unexpected happens next year, the Crown Prince will be deposed. By then, I'm afraid that things will be even more exciting than in his previous life.

If you try to make a presence felt on someone else's son's third-day bath and full-month birthday, don't blame Yinzhen and Le Shu for revenge.

It will take time to see how the follow-up will develop, but Yinzhen’s work in the Ministry of Works has yielded results.

Yinzhen transferred some personnel from the Ministry of Works and, after repeated experiments, summarized a set of treatment methods that could efficiently, cost-effectively, thoroughly clean wool and remove the odor.

It's not that nomadic areas such as Inner Mongolia, Tibet, and the Western Regions have not discovered the warmth-keeping function of wool, but it's very troublesome to handle. Most of it is difficult to clean, and there's always an indelible sheep smell. Local herdsmen use it to keep warm, but they can't use it for trade.

The Central Plains region has better-quality cotton, as well as cotton-spun fabrics and a variety of fine silks and scented wool textiles, but these are naturally not worth looking at and have no trade value.

Yinzhen wrote the relevant technology and his subsequent ideas in a thick memorial and handed it to Kangxi personally. He did not follow the usual procedure and also wanted to keep it confidential.

Kangxi looked for a long time. After he finished looking at Yinzhen, there were many inexplicable things in his eyes.

Because of the nomadic people's nomadic nature, Kangxi was also worried about the governance of pastoral areas!

We can conquer them, but the nomadic nature of pastoral areas makes herders homeless. Even if we conquer them this year, when the ruling power of the Central Plains weakens a little one day, these nomadic areas will immediately be out of control.

A problem since ancient times.

Kangxi married many of his daughters, granddaughters, and princesses from the royal family to Mongolia. However, only a few princesses and duchesses were able to survive in Mongolia. This was certainly due to their inability to adapt to the climate there, but more importantly, the Mongols did not attach importance to the candidates from the imperial court who married there, as they wanted more.

Kangxi was not without sadness when his daughter died in Mongolia.

He knew that the royal family was afraid of having daughters, but there was nothing he could do because Mongolia needed marriage to survive.

What Yinzhen said in this memorial gave him great inspiration.

If this were really possible, not only would the Mongolian problem be basically solved, but other pastoral areas would also not be a problem. Although the rule might not be complete and timely due to poor transportation, there would be no need to worry that they would rebel like Galdan one day.

Using economic means to restrain others was something Kangxi had never thought of before.

“Are there any finished wool products?”

"Yes, it's in Su Peisheng's hands. You can ask Eunuch Liang to get it."

Kangxi gave Liang Jiugong a look and Liang Jiugong went out.

Last time, Kangxi asked him to make honeycomb coal without even seeing the finished product, but this time it was different. Honeycomb coal could save many lives. In Kangxi's eyes, it was just a tool to improve people's morale. He believed that he did not lack this kind of popular support. It would be better if he had it, but it would not harm his rule if he did not have it.

But it's different for you, Wool. If you really succeed, it will be an achievement and it will also affect the stability of the border, so you have to treat it with caution.

Liang Jiugong brought Su Peisheng in. There were too many things and Liang Jiugong couldn't carry them all by himself.

Yinzhen then introduced these wool products to Kangxi one by one.

"Father, this is a wool blanket."

Kangxi touched it and found it very soft. He also picked it up and smelled it. It didn't smell like sheep, but rather like sunshine. "It was really cleaned and has no smell."

Yinzhen continued: "This is wool thread. This thread is easier to weave than wool cloth. Wool thread can be woven into a woolen sweater. The process is not difficult. Just use two bamboo sticks. Father Huang, look, this is a woolen sweater woven by skillful hands. It is very elastic. Wearing it outside your inner clothes in winter will be very warm..."

As Kangxi spoke, he picked up the wool thread, then picked up the wool sweater, stretched it, and found it was indeed elastic. After rubbing it a few times, he could feel the heat in his palms.

"Good, continue."

Yinzhen continued, "This is woolen cloth, and the weaving process requires a little higher level. I asked some craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry to develop a new type of weaving machine, which is much faster than weaving cotton cloth."

Kangxi became interested again: "New textile machine?"

Yinzhen briefly introduced the textile machine, but he did not say much about it in the memorial.

Basically it is to improve the traditional textile machines, increase the textile speed and save more labor.

Kangxi: "Since we can increase the speed of spinning wool, I think we can also increase the speed of spinning cotton cloth, right?"

Yinzhen paused and said, "Indeed, it can, but if the court does not intervene to mediate, I'm afraid there will be problems."

Kangxi nodded with satisfaction, happy that he could think of this aspect: "Go on."

Yinzhen said again: "..."

Kangxi asked and Yinzhen answered, and they talked until their mouths became dry, so Kangxi stopped.

"I will consider it, you can go back first."

"Yes, I will retire."

After Yinzhen left, Kangxi looked confused. He said to Liang Jiugong: "My son has a longer-term vision than I thought!"

Kangxi sounded emotional, not knowing whether he should be happy or not.

The prince he carefully trained was only interested in fame and fortune. He had the ability to govern the country, but lacked the strategic vision for governing the country. He saw this trait in Yinzhen, which made him happy but also made him feel powerless because of the prince.

Liang Jiugong complimented him: "Your Majesty's princes are all outstanding people in my opinion."

"Yes, there are only two kinds of people, but a dragon gives birth to nine sons, and some are strong and some are weak!"

Kangxi recognized Yinzhen's abilities, but he felt that it would be better if such abilities appeared in the crown prince.

Flowers that are carefully cultivated are not as good as those that are casually grown. He will be happy with the flowers that are casually grown, but he will also be frustrated if the flowers that are carefully cultivated do not bloom as expected.

Angry and unwilling to fight!

Yinzhen was not afraid that Kangxi would not give him the job of Yangmao. Although Yangmao was good, he would not be able to appear in the court for a long time for one to two years. The crown prince would not do this, the eldest prince was not good at this, and the eighth prince was even worse. He would not choose to stay away from the court for a long time.

The Ninth Prince might be interested, but the Eighth Prince would stop him.

The other royal princes all have their own shortcomings and are unable to take the main responsibility.

Yinzhen was the first person to propose the idea, and he understood the situation best and was the most suitable person to be in charge. Kangxi was not afraid that he would seek personal gain.

But it is true that he should be able to share the credit with a few brothers.

After Yinzhen handed in the memorial, Kangxi did not ask any more questions. He was patient. Kangxi considered it for several days before calling all his sons over. Then he handed a document about wool farming in Mongolia to everyone for circulation.

Yinzhen took a look at it and found that it was not the one he wrote. It should be the one written by Kangxi himself and copied by someone, so many things were missing.
