Chapter 413 - What was she doing?



“Let’s play another round,” he said with a smile.

Shi Qingluo did not reject him. “Alright. ”

Shi Qingluo won this round again.

King Jin met a chess player and couldn’t help but grab Shi Qingluo to play a few more rounds.

Other than a draw, he had lost the rest.

The key point was that Qing’s style was not consistent.

There were different changes in each game, which made him even more confused about her tactics.

Shi Qingluo also gave him a sense of mystery, which made him want to dig for something.

King Jin wanted to continue, but Shi Qingluo rejected him.

She calculated the time she would take to enter his residence and it was about time for the people outside to misunderstand her.

There was no need to waste any more time.

That’s right, Shi Qingluo already started thinking about it when King Jin suggested for them to play another round.

The northern border was King Jin’s territory.

If they wanted to have a stable reform and development in Heyang County, they had to give King Jin’s people the wrong impression that they were highly valued by King Jin and were likely to be used by him.

Therefore, in the future, when they had projects in Heyang County, not many people would take the initiative to hold them back.

When King Jin used them, they would naturally be able to use him back.

Hearing Shi Qingluo’s rejection, King Jin was still unsatisfied. “Did you learn your chess skills from your master?

“I learned a little from my master, but most of it was from my husband,” Shi Qingluo replied.

Her eyes were full of radiance. “My husband is very good at chess.”

This was the truth.

Her young husband’s chess skills could beat her paternal and maternal grandfather in the modern world.

He was so good that if he participated in a competition, he would definitely win first place.

King Jin smiled. “If there’s a chance, I’ll play a few rounds with your husband.”

Liang Mingyu was more curious about Xiao hanzheng now.

“What kind of charm did he have to make Shi Qingluo like him so much?”

However, the more she was like this, the more he wanted to poach her.

The reason why he liked married women, other than the fact that such women were more flirtatious and mature, he would also feel a sense of accomplishment after successfully stealing someone’s woman.

Shi Qingluo nodded. “Sure!”

“Your Highness, you asked me to come today. Have you arranged for the things I asked for?” she asked.

King Jin raised his hand to the person standing behind him.

The man immediately took out a booklet and handed it to him.

“This is the situation of the northern border that you wanted. Take a closer look and see if there are any good ideas to benefit the people here.”

He gave it to Shi Qingluo, as if he was thinking for his people.

Shi Qingluo took it and flipped through it casually. She realized that it was quite detailed.

She kept the book. “Alright, I’ll take it back and read it carefully. It should give me some inspiration. ”

“Then why don’t you stay in Northern City for a few more days?” King Jin said with a smile.

“Otherwise, it would take a lot of time to get the ideas from you after you return to Heyang County. It might be difficult to express the ideas clearly by writing or having someone send a letter.”

Shi Qingluo thought for a moment. “Alright, I’ll stay for two more days.”

The northern border was too poor, and she wanted to help change it with her own ability.

In recent years, as long as King Jin wasn’t sentenced to death by the imperial court for his rebellion, no matter which plan was being carried out, the imperial court would not be able to carry it out as smoothly as King Jin’s manor in the northern border.

The emperor probably wanted to use King Jin’s hands to develop the northern border before coming back to reap the fruits of his labor.

King Jin’s smile deepened. “I thank Mdm Shi on behalf of the people at the northern border.”

Shi Qingluo laughed. “Your royal highness, you’re being too serious! ”

After that, she took her leave and King Jin ordered someone to send her back.

After Shi Qingluo returned to the deputy governor’s office, she did not go out again.

Instead, she carefully studied the different situations in the various regions at the northern border.

Then, she found two good ways to develop the northern border.

She had stayed in the courtyard for two days without going out, which made Xiao Yuanshi even more curious.

He heard from the servants in the courtyard that she had been in her room and hadn’t come out much.

What was she doing?

According to Shi Qingluo’s character in the past, she wasn’t someone who could sit still.

Shi Qingluo sent someone to Secondary Consort Hua a message that she would be paying a visit.

The carriage from King Jin’s residence picked her up that day.

When she went to the King Jin Residence, they met at the same old place.

However, King Jin didn’t place any chess pieces this time.

He only placed an ice basin and some fresh fruits.

Besides, Secondary Consort Hua was not around.

Besides Liang Mingyu, there was also a handsome young man in his twenties beside King Jin.

Shi Qingluo bowed to him and Liang Mingyu.

“Greetings, your royal highness and crown prince!”

“Sit!” King Jin said with a smile.

“Do you have any ideas?” he asked.

Shi Qingluo nodded. “I have two ideas now.

“What do you think of cotton cloth, Your Highness?” she suddenly asked.

King Jin was stunned. “Cotton cloth? ”

He usually wore silk and satin clothes and had never worn clothes made of cotton.

He looked at the young man. “Ziqin, do you know anything about cotton cloth?”

This was the person in his residence who was the best at business, so he had called him over this time.

“I know, it’s a cloth that’s spun from a type of white folded flower in the northern border.” Xu Ziqin nodded.

“It’s much more expensive than sackcloth, but cheaper than silk and satin. It’s more comfortable to wear.

“However, the production of white folded flowers is very low, so the annual output of cotton cloth is also not much.

“In addition, the rich prefer silk and satin, while the poor mainly wear linen, so cotton cloth is very ordinary.”

He personally liked to wear cotton underclothes, which felt more breathless and comfortable, so he had some understanding of it.

He looked at Shi Qingluo and asked, “Is Mdm Shi thinking of letting his highness produce cotton cloth to sell?”

Shi Qingluo nodded. “That’s right. The northern border is especially suitable for planting white folded flowers. Cotton cloth is very permeable to air and is comfortable to wear. As long as the price is lowered, I believe that the middle and lower class will be interested to buy it.”

The current sackcloth was relatively coarse and had good air permeability, but when the rough sackcloth rubbed against the flesh on the body, it would burn and hurt.

It was not like the linen clothes and pants of the modern world.

Not only were they not rough and rough, but they were also very comfortable to wear.

Most of the clothes that farmers bought were made of this kind of sackcloth. After all, it was cheap.

“But the key is, how can we lower the price?” Xu Ziqin asked.

Shi Qingluo replied, “Mass plantation. Use the correct planting method to create a machine that specializes in spinning and weaving cotton …

“If the quantity and yield of the plants are increased, and we can quickly and efficiently spin them into cloth, the cost will naturally fall, and the price will also fall.

“I understand that the white flower isn’t the best here, which is why the yield isn’t high. The people don’t get much profit from it, which is why there aren’t many people planting it.

“I know a way to increase the cotton production.”

In addition, after picking the white flower, there are still cotton seeds inside.

It would take a lot of time and energy to take them out, which is more troublesome.

“That’s why I know a machine that’s specialized in extracting cotton seeds. It’ll be fast and good to extract cotton seeds, and it’ll also reduce costs.

“Not only can white folded flowers be woven into cloth, but they can also be made into handkerchiefs for washing faces and bathing. it’s much better than sackcloth and silk cloth.”
