Chapter five hundred and twentieth: making a fortune
Zhu Houzhao flew his fingers, hooking the needle easily and comfortably, whistling, and then he asked, "Can this hooked clothes really keep warm?"
Sweaters...especially sweaters have always been a powerful tool for keeping warm.
Especially in this era, down jackets did not appear before.
Han people like wide robes, even if they are inside, so they can only rely on jackets to keep warm inside, and the degree of jackets to keep warm is actually not high.
It’s different with a wool. This is authentic wool. Clothes knitted with such natural wool are not enough to be warm.
The winter has become a little late in the past two years, which is better than the worse weather in the twelve years of Hongzhi. But even so, there is a cold and cold weather in the capital for about half a year.
Many people would rather stay at home and keep warm with anthracite than go out for activities. It is so cold.
Fang Jifan said confidently: "Let's wait and see, you will know when your Highness comes out."
Zhu Houzhao became full of confidence again, with a hint of pride on his face.
"I am very talented and found that this female pornographic thing is born with ordinary people. If it is really effective, then I will go back to teach the girl. She will be too clumsy and will not do anything." As she said that, she shook her head. Although she is a scumbag, she still seems to have a traditional concept that women should be good female pornographic.
Zhu Houzhao doesn't care about other people's women, but her own girls cannot be like some people who are out of tune. This girl still has to let the girls learn well.
Zhu Houzhao continued to whistle: "I will also knit one for my mother and one for the Empress Dowager, especially the Empress Dowager. She has been cold recently, and she is weak and has frostbite."
Fang Jifan looked at Zhu Houzhao in confusion and asked in surprise: "The palace of the Empress Dowager is as warm as spring, and she will also have frostbite?"
After Fang Jifan asked this question, he immediately remembered something. Frostbite is not just as simple as cold weather. Sometimes it is very easy to breed frostbite after being frozen.
Usually, charcoal is burned in the palace, but occasionally, the Empress Dowager will go out for a walk or order people to open windows to ventilate the bedroom. So the cold air is dyed and the anthracite is baked with anthracite. Wouldn’t frostbite come?
If you are a healthy person, it would be fine. However, the Empress Dowager is old and a woman, and her blood and energy are not smooth at all, so frostbite is common.
As he was talking, Fang Jifan was busy wearing a sweater. He realized that he had no such talent at all, just like a kitten playing with threads, in a mess.
But at this moment, Wang Jinyuan hurried over: "Your Highness, Young Master, Ningbo has come to letters."
"Haha..." Fang Jifan took the opportunity to put down his sweater.
Wang Jinyuan looked straight at Zhu Houzhao. His skill in wearing sweaters made him stunned. He didn't dare to look at it, but his eyes were still subconsciously looking at it...
Zhu Houzhao still lowered her head and knitted her sweater seriously, not caring about Wang Jinyuan's surprised gaze at all.
Fang Jifan got off the kang: "Bohu has come to write a letter, but I miss him very much. It is not an exaggeration to say that I miss you day and night."
As he said that, he took the letter and read it carefully.
Seeing this, I was quite excited. That boy Tang Yin...is so powerful?
Fang Jifan couldn't help but feel a little confused, and he was even stunned. It took him a long time to come back to his senses, glanced at Zhu Houzhao, and said happily: "Your Highness, are you preparing for a great victory in the Japanese Guard?"
Zhu Houzhao then distracted himself: "There is another great victory, where did so many Japanese pirates come from?"
"This time I'm going to attack Huanglong." Fang Jifan was happy and happy: "He directly chased the Japanese pirates' nest, killed thousands of enemies, and captured seven or eight hundred thieves. In addition, he also rescued many women..."
"These damn Japanese pirates." Zhu Houzhao couldn't help but curse.
Fang Jifan stared at Zhu Houzhao. If his memory was correct, Zhu Houzhao seemed to be interested in women.
However, the records in historical books may not be credible. Zhu Houzhao did not leave any descendants among the emperors of the Ming Dynasty. Once this person has no descendants, he will inevitably be arranged in various ways, especially his cousin Emperor Jiajing, who has a lot of complaints about Zhu Houzhao.
Although Zhu Houzhao also had some nonsense, this historical record of accusing his wife and loving women made Fang Jifan feel that he might be suspected of making up and throwing dirty water.
Fang Jifan did not continue to think about Zhu Houzhao's hobby recorded in history, but said with great satisfaction: "Tang Yin really did not disappoint my teachings. From then on, he will be my favorite disciple." However, Fang Jifan frowned: "It's just these women..."
Among the letters, Tang Yin talked about the most was the arrangements of these women, which shows that Tang Yin was very concerned about them.
Fang Jifan immediately understood Tang Yin's intention, and these women were not tolerated by their moral values at this time.
Although they were men who were not protected properly, they were plundered by Japanese pirates. The tragedy they had can be blamed by the court, the government, the men, the Japanese guards in various places, and the brutal Japanese pirates, but only... they can't blame them on themselves.
Tang Yin mentioned something in his letter, which made Fang Jifan very angry. He said that it was the gentry of Ningbo Prefecture who was grateful for the loyalty of a woman named Zhou and wanted to raise money to build a archway for him in Ningbo.
What happened to this woman surnamed Zhou?
Like other women, she was also captured by the Japanese pirates.
But then the Japanese pirates wanted to treat her badly, but she refused to obey her and bit her tongue and committed suicide.
Her virility is very admirable.
So the gentry made great efforts to commemorate this person.
But their intentions are obviously made with other intentions.
On the one hand, Tang Yin wanted to take care of these women who were humiliated by Japanese pirates, and the gentry seemed to rely on Tang Yin very much. They would never dare to complain to this. At least on the surface, they all said that Tang Shixue did this very well.
They did not dare to confront Tang Yin, but they thought that this was not in line with their values. These women who survived were nothing but a slightest disturbance to them. The things written in Cheng and Zhu's way were clearly written, and the things that were not honest were promoted by Tang Shixue, which was contrary to the ways of Confucius and Mencius.
She was unhappy and did not dare to object. She heard that there was a woman named Zhou like other women, but she bit her tongue and died in order to fulfill her innocence. At this moment, the gentry was excited. There were still chaste women in the world, so they wanted to commend her and set up her chastity arch.
This approach is a non-violent confrontation. Even if I don’t provoke you, I can’t afford to provoke you. I will rely on you in the future, but I will have no problem building a monument for Zhou’s family.
The archway was set up, just like saying, seeing whether you see or not, look at the Zhou family, this is what a woman should do, and as for other surviving women, do you still have the face to live?
Fang Jifan also believed that Zhou was a very amazing woman.
But as soon as I saw through the attempts of these gentry, I felt so disgusted.
These people are really hypocrites, and it makes people feel nauseous when they think of them.
Fang Jifan was thinking about what to do, but the letter in his hand was snatched away by Zhu Houzhao.
Zhu Houzhao's focus was different from Fang Jifan. He did not see through the intentions behind the gentry. He was overjoyed and said happily: "Look, what did Tang Yin say? Tang Yin said that they seized the treasures of Japanese pirates, including 9,300 taels of gold and hundreds of thousands of silver. Haha... I got rich, and there were many good things. These rare treasures are hard to estimate now. Lao Fang, our Zhenguo Mansion is going to make a fortune."
Fang Jifan just smiled and said, "Next, Zhenguo Mansion needs to recruit more soldiers and build more ships. These silver can be used as military funds. Is it pitiful to the woman mentioned in Tang Yin's letter?"
Zhu Houzhao frowned and said nothing: "This... is a bit pitiful."
Fang Jifan stared at Zhu Houzhao and asked seriously: "Since it's pitiful, should we take care of them?"
"Okay." Zhu Houzhao blurted out without hesitation: "It's just take them all to the East Palace."
"..." Fang Jifan felt that Zhu Houzhao was purely a person with an IQ that was extremely high and his emotional intelligence was mentally retarded.
Fang Jifan said patiently: "What does Your Highness think of it?"
Zhu Houzhao thought for a while: "If you lose your virginity, you will lose your virginity. I often lose my virginity, once a day, and I am used to it. I can lose my virginity. Why can't women? Besides, they are also forced by Japanese pirates. What do you think about this?"
Fang Jifan couldn't help but frown: "But how to arrange them? Take them to the West Mountain?"
When Zhu Houzhao saw that Fang Jifan was rarely serious, he cheered up: "Or, I will teach them how to wear sweaters."
“…”
This is a good idea.
Sweaters are definitely a powerful tool for heating in the back, and the effect of this thing is not worse than anthracite.
In the future, the Ming Dynasty needs countless wool, which is terrible to think about. How much damage will a group of people who want wool and want to be crazy will cause to the grassland?
But first of all, we need to promote the wool. How to promote it?
Fang Jifan said: "Give people a bite of food so that they can support themselves is called material guarantee. However... it is extremely difficult to heal people's hearts. They are not tolerated by the world and have been harmed, but they still have to face countless rumors. Thousands of people in the world will roll their eyes to them. What a terrible thing."
Zhu Houzhao didn't understand very much and looked at Fang Jifan with a look of surprise.
He was used to being the prince, so he didn't know the sadness behind it.
Fang Jifan said, "Just like Your Highness, no matter how hard you try, no matter how much you do, you will be just a foolish child in front of Your Highness. Your Highness has spent countless efforts and gets his Majesty's eyes rolling. Of course, their level is thousands of times more pitiful than His Highness's experience. Your Highness... Do you understand what I mean now?"
