Scientific farming and raising cute babies

Chapter 543 Buying Animal Hair

Because Gu Miao wanted to buy these animal hairs for the reason of trying, so she didn't plan to buy for too long this time, so as not to arouse suspicion.

After the news was released, it didn't arouse everyone's doubts, because stuffing clothes with animal hair is a very common behavior. After getting the news, the people who had these animal hairs at home immediately came over with their stocks.

The price Gu Miao offered was not good, but it wasn't bad either. Now that every household can make tofu, life is getting better, and everyone plans to buy leather jackets after winter, so they don't need these animal hairs.

Instead of taking up space, it's better to come to Gu Miao to exchange a few copper coins.

In the past, I was not rich, so I couldn’t save much animal hair all year round. Most households only had a few taels, which were scattered. After one morning, Gu Miao only collected three catties of chicken feathers, two catties of duck feathers, and thirty catties of wool. .

The reason why so much wool can be collected is because of Butcher Zhou and Village Chief Jiang.

Butcher Zhou slaughtered sheep at home, so he accumulated some wool.

In the past, their family gave the wool to their relatives, so there is only so much left. If Gu Miao wants it, then they will keep the wool for Gu Miao when they kill the sheep next time.

Village head Jiang had sheep at home, and it was the season for goats to shed their hair. Knowing that Gu Miao was buying wool, village head Jiang simply shaved the goats by hand.

Gu Miao was very happy to have collected so much wool this morning. During lunch, Jiang Xiu looked at her excitement and couldn't help but ask, "You've already collected so much, why don't you still collect it? These are enough for you to go." Clothes are stuffed."

"Mother, I heard the blue guard talk about the wool felt, and I want to study this." Gu Miao moved out Lan Yi.

Jiang Xiu "..."

She was at a loss for words.

She didn't dare to say anything.

Even Lan Yi said that the wool felt has many benefits, so naturally she didn't dare to stop it.

Without Jiang Xiu's stop, Gu Miao continued to collect chicken feathers, duck feathers and wool in the afternoon.

Gu Miao handed the three kinds of wool collected in the morning to Zhao Xiaoyue, and asked Zhao Xiaoyue to sort out the wool, cashmere, duck down, duck down, chicken feather and chicken down, and then wash them with water.

Many of these animals were also stained with blood and had to be cleaned thoroughly before use.

In the afternoon, the news of Gu Miao's purchase of these animal hairs had already spread. Not only the vendors knew about it, but people in other villages also knew about it.

People from other villages came directly with their stocks at home, and some small traders also asked her if they needed to buy some from other places.

Gu Miao thought for a while, and nodded in agreement. Without such big customers as Zhou Tuhu and Jiang Village Chief, the remaining people would sell by a few ounces, which was too few.

At first she just wanted to make some woolen sweaters, but now that she has dragged out chicken feathers and duck feathers and started buying them, she is going to make some down jackets and duvets.

To be honest, the leather is not only heavy on the body, but also heavy when the quilt is on the body at night. She really misses the lightweight and warm duvet of later generations.

And the down quilt is actually not technically content, it is easy to make, she will not be able to enjoy it with Meng Xizhou by herself, there are so many people in the family, and they all have to come to the same bed, so now collect more duck feathers and duck down.

Jiang Xiu watched from the side, although she was anxious, she didn't dare to stop her.

Alas, the prodigal daughter!

Forget it, if she doesn't succeed at that time, then she can use it all on herself, so it can't be wasted.
