Shoufu's favored wife is sweet and sassy

Chapter 193, Linen?
"Yes, big brother, but we have already charged double the profit for the tiger skin. For the purchase, it is enough. We want to leave the bulk of the profit to the retailer. As for the person who sells it for 500 Two, that is their skill, they are all people who eat with their heads up, and they are willing to do this business only if they are satisfied."

"Yes."

Biaozi cherishes words like gold.

Xiaoqing now understands why his fur cannot be sold.

"Well, boss, we are here today to thank you and deliver these goods by the way. You are busy opening, you are busy, don't worry about me, we unload the goods and leave."

As soon as Wang Dayi finished speaking, Tieta Biaozi got up quickly to unload the bullock cart, and he didn't drink a drop of the tea he just picked up.

Xiaoqing: "..."

"Brother Wang, there is really no hurry, you..."

Xiaoqing subconsciously looked down at Wang Dayi's feet, a new pair of straw sandals, not as muddy as last time, and she was fine, but she suddenly got excited and looked down again.

"Hey, boss, I... what's wrong with me?"

Wang Dayi put his feet together with a guilty conscience, and was flustered by Xiaoqing's look, but he didn't expect Xiaoqing to just squat down and touch the shoes on his feet!

This frightened Wang Dayi, he jumped up like a dancer falling onto a hot pot.

"Hey... hey... my boss, I can't... I can't..."

Xiaoqing was so teased that she couldn't laugh or cry, so she had to give up.

"Brother Wang, what are your shoes made of? I think it's a bit rare."

"I am straw sandals, we all use this kind of straw sandals in our village."

Xiaoqing looked at Biaozi again, and she was indeed wearing the same pair of straw sandals.

"Brother Wang, can you take off your shoes and show me?"

"what?"

Wang Dayi was still in a daze, but Biaozi had already taken off a big shoe and handed it over.

Xiaoqing: "..."

People don't talk too much, count me Biaozi brother.

Xiaoqing took the big shoe that was big enough to fit her three feet in her hand and observed it carefully. The brown hemp thread was not like grass, but more like hemp, but as far as she knew, hemp had not been introduced to China at this time. The popularization of flax is also after a long time, but if this is the most primitive state of flax, then it is really a treasure.

"Do you know what the hemp itself looks like in these sandals?"

"Hemp grass? We say that pigs don't eat it, and even animals don't eat it. This stalk is so strong that animals can't stop biting at it, so we all use it to weave things. We can use this grass to weave mats, straw sandals, and baskets."

Xiaoqing became more and more skeptical. This is the flax that later generations are familiar with. Even if it is not, it is almost the same.

"Can you show me this kind of thing? Everyone in the village uses this now?"

"Then why not, our town is remote, every household uses this kind of grass, and every family is good at weaving this thing!"

"Then how did you turn this grass into such a brown hemp?"

"Master, do you call this hemp? We really don't know. After the grass is collected, it is tied up and dried, and the dry skin on the outside is thrown off. That's it. It's not difficult. In our area, there are all over the mountains and plains. It’s over, if you want it, we’ll bring you the dried one.”

"Well, no, is there anyone in the village who can weave?"

"Of course, Brother Biaozi's daughter-in-law is a master. It's just that she is not in good health now. The skills in the town are all passed down by Brother Biaozi's wife. He..."

Wang Dayi looked at Biaozi as if he didn't know whether he could say the following words.

The iron tower-like man opened his mouth and said:

"My wife was originally a palace man and knew how to weave."

So that was the case, but how could someone who came out of the palace go to such a desolate place to be a wife for a hunter?

Xiaoqing had doubts in her heart, and knew it was not the time to ask.

"Your town is too far away, and my sister-in-law's health is not good, so don't worry about it. If there is no delivery in the past few days, I will go to your town in these two days."

Seeing is believing, if this is really the hemp used on a large scale in later generations, it would be great.

The Northland does not produce cotton or silk, and these are all sold from the central and southern regions, so the price is naturally much higher.

Not only that, hemp not only has the advantages of cotton and silk, but also has the advantages of antibacterial, sweat-absorbing and cool. If you can really find the seeds, that would be great.
