Forcing me to keep vigil for your childhood sweetheart? Then I'll leave you.
Chapter 8: Completed in 1 Day
"I'm going to make a delivery."
"Someone has ordered these cloths."
Lin Yi explained slowly, but the officers and soldiers looked unconvinced.
Who in the entire Liangzhou City has the ability to buy so much cloth?
“We need to check!”
As the officers and soldiers spoke, they began to "touch and touch" the woolen cloth, fearing that there might be some weapons hidden inside.
"Why is this cloth so strange?"
The more the officers and soldiers touched, the more they felt something was wrong. These cloths felt very much like sable furs, but when they touched them carefully, they found that they were not sable furs.
"It's wool."
Lin Yi's explanation was treated as a joke by them.
"Little brother, if you want to lie, at least try to be careful!"
"Wool fabrics have a strong odor, and even if they can be processed properly, it requires a lot of effort."
“How could there be such a large amount?”
The officer laughed and said, "Even those of us who don't know much about cloth know this. You, a cloth seller, can't be completely ignorant, right?"
"It is indeed woolen cloth."
Lin Yi had a serious face, but the officers and soldiers took it as serious nonsense.
The laughter attracted the attention of a young girl.
"What's so funny?"
Chu Yaoyue walked over and saw Lin Yi, with a hint of surprise in her eyes, "You're here?"
"Miss Chu."
Seeing Chu Yaoyue, the officers and soldiers half-bent their waists and saluted with their fists clasped.
"These cloths are what Daddy wants!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the officers and soldiers stared at Lin Yi in surprise.
The merchants nearby who had not yet entered the city also widened their eyes.
The woolen cloth merchant who was a joke just now is now favored by the eldest daughter of Prince Qing's Mansion?
The joke remains the same, it just moves from one person to another.
As of now, the officers and soldiers and the people around them who were laughing at them have become a joke.
"No need to check, Lin Yi, just follow me."
Chu Yaoyue took the lead, and under the surprised and envious gazes of these people, Lin Yi led his men slowly into the city and entered the Prince Qing's Mansion.
In the garden, several carts carrying a total of five hundred feet of woolen cloth were quietly placed.
"It's only been a day, why are you here?"
The King of Qin only glanced at the woolen cloth without counting it carefully. "Are you afraid that I will go back on my word?"
"Your Highness Prince Qing, five hundred feet, completed in one day."
Lin Yi's serious face told Prince Qing that this was not a joke.
Then Prince Qing ordered his steward to count them, and found that there were exactly five hundred horses!
"How could you make five hundred pieces in just one day?"
Prince Qing frowned, puzzled.
But after a moment, he thought of an explanation.
"Could it be that you have already prepared for this and are saying this on purpose?"
Prince Qing found an explanation for himself and smiled with relief, "With a reputation, I can expand my business."
"No."
"It will be done in one day."
Lin Yi slowly raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly, "This is the truth, these villagers can testify for me."
The villagers who came to pull the goods later said frankly that they made it in one night.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Even if it's linen, five hundred feet in one night? That's a fantasy!"
Prince Qing waved his hand, his face showing some anger. "Lin Yi, if you still want to deceive me, don't blame me for detaining you!"
"Your Highness, wouldn't it be better if you could see for yourself whether it was actually completed in one day?"
“Hearing is believing, seeing is believing.”
Lin Yi looked full of confidence, but King Qing suspected that he was wrong.
"Well, I'll go and see for myself."
Prince Qing waved his hand slightly and said, "You can rest for a while in the palace now."
After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room.
Chu Yaoyue also went with them.
"Dad, even if he can't reach 500 feet a day, these cloths are still very useful for the army!"
Chu Yaoyue in the room said, "One tael is one zhang. Although it's a bit more expensive than silk, it's much cheaper than mink furs!"
"How could I not know?"
"What if someone deliberately did this to him to frame my Liangzhou soldiers?"
Prince Qing asked back, "My daughter, you can't be so naive!"
Doesn't he know that these fabrics are warm and durable?
Don’t you know that if these fabrics are used in the army, they can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the soldiers?
In this severe cold, the army is not only fighting against the enemy, but also fighting a desperate battle against the weather!
"Then go and have a look!"
Chu Yaoyue pouted and snorted, "Is it wrong for a daughter to think about her father?"
"Well, I'll bring some more people."
Prince Qing nodded slightly.
A moment later, Prince Qing appeared to be wearing gorgeous clothes, but underneath he was wearing soft steel armor.
He walked towards Lin Yi with a sword on his waist.
"I'll go and have a look with you."
"As for this batch of goods...Butler!"
At Prince Qing's command, the steward handed over four silver notes of one hundred taels and three silver notes of ten taels.
"Prince Qing, please wait a moment. I will go buy some food."
After getting the money, Lin Yi immediately turned around to leave, but was stopped by the soldiers from the mansion.
"You guys go with him and help him move the goods."
Prince Qing had two purposes in doing this.
If Lin Yi really went to buy food, then the soldiers would indeed help him move the goods.
If Lin Yi wanted to take the opportunity to escape, the soldiers would capture him and bring him back!
Not long after, Lin Yi exchanged one hundred taels for a large amount of food.
There were countless vegetables, grains, and living pigs, cows, and sheep lying in the car!
With the soldiers escorting them, it looked like a convoy transporting food and fodder.
The convoy stopped at the gate of Prince Qing's mansion, waiting for Prince Qing and his daughter to come out.
"Why do you need so much food?"
Seeing the convoy, Prince Qing was confused again.
"The village is short of food. Since I made some money, I naturally want to comfort our villagers!"
Lin Yi explained with a smile, "They helped me make this five hundred feet of woolen cloth!"
Prince Qing nodded slightly with a stern face and led the convoy out of the city.
When they left, the cloth sellers at the market followed Lin Yi all the way out.
Several vendors in the market had heard about what had just happened at the city gate. Now that Prince Qing was leading the team himself, they naturally wanted to find out what was going on.
If this woolen cloth really has a market value, why would they still sell these rags?
Wool is worthless in the first place, but giving away a lot of it for free is a business with no capital investment, which is so tempting!
……
After leaving the city, Lin Yi and his group headed straight for Niujia Village.
"Prince Qing has arrived!"
With this roar, all the villagers in Niujia Village were awakened.
They all ran out to see what was going on.
But Prince Qing had a stern face and seemed a little angry.
Beside him were Lin Yi and several villagers, and behind him were countless soldiers!
Seeing this scene, the villagers all thought that Lin Yi had offended King Qing.
They all ran over and knelt before Prince Qing.
"Meet Prince Qing."
After saying this, they still knelt with their heads lowered, fearing that any impoliteness would make Prince Qing want to kill them.
"Everyone get up."
Prince Qing said coldly, "I heard that you made five hundred feet of woolen cloth overnight. Is that true?"
Seeing this situation, the village chief immediately stepped forward.
"It's true. It was...Mr. Lin and the other villagers who did it."
The village chief spoke immediately.
The food has been distributed, and the villagers don’t have to worry about food in the short term. Even if it means offending King Qing, they must help Lin Yi!
