Chapter 357 Cotton
When the head of the Han family heard about the descendants of the Xiao family, he was shocked and hurriedly called all the elders and sons over.
"Could those descendants of the Xiao clan be fake?" someone speculated.
"The emperor would not joke about this matter. I'm afraid those people are serious."
"The emperor found the descendants of the Xiao clan and arranged for them to work in the sword-making workshop. What does this mean? Does he want the Xiao clan to replace our Han clan?"
The Korean people were discussing this matter.
Patriarch Han's face looked very grim as he listened to their words.
Last year, he discovered the Xiao clan's mechanism box. He guessed that the Xiao clan might still have descendants alive, so he secretly sent people to look for it, but no clues were found.
No one thought that the descendants of the Xiao clan would suddenly appear at this time, and appear in this way, catching the Han clan off guard.
"The descendants of the Xiao clan that appeared this time are all young people. Their parents and elders are nowhere to be found. We must find them."
"It is enough for the Yuan Dynasty to have one family with expertise in mechanical engineering. There is no need for a second one." The head of the Han family had a cold look in his eyes, concealing murderous intent.
The grudge between the Han and Xiao tribes was known to all the elders present.
An elder said in a deep voice: "Although our ancestors were slaves of the Xiao clan, that was many years ago. This matter cannot be spread."
"I wonder who was among the Xiao clan members who survived back then? Do they know the secret of our Han clan? Have they told their descendants about it?"
The Han people have been prosperous for so many years. Once the matter of the slaves gets out, the Han people will become a joke.
Therefore, the Han clan can never be outdone by the Xiao clan.
The Han tribe was no longer slaves of the Xiao tribe.
The head of the Han family sent people to investigate the affairs of the Xiao family, but the news they got was that the twelve people were hidden by the royal family, and no one knew where they went except the abbot.
Patriarch Han was very puzzled: "Where did the emperor find this person?"
He pondered for a long time, but still had no clue, so he simply gave up thinking about it.
The head of the Han family called his eldest son to the study and wrote a letter to him.
"You deliver this letter to Haicheng in person."
Han Dalang glanced at the letter in his hand, with a thousand doubts in his mind, but he did not ask.
"I know, kid."
The next morning, Han Dalang took two guards and set off for Haicheng.
Not long after they left the city, the news reached the ears of Emperor Yuanwu.
"What is Han Dalang doing out of town?"
The secret guard who was monitoring the Han tribe said, "I don't know, but this time when Han Dalang went out, he only brought two guards."
In the past, Han Dalang would bring hundreds of people with him when he went out, but this time he only brought two guards, which was too strange.
Emperor Yuanwu waved his hand and said, "Go and follow them. If you find anything, report it immediately."
"I obey!"
After the secret guards left, Emperor Yuanwu ordered Xiong Jingzhong to bring a piece of white paper and write the word "Han" on it.
The Han clan had once joined forces with Gao Yi, but later for some unknown reason, the head of the Han family had a falling out with Gao Yi, so when Gao Yi was captured, the Han clan was able to live in peace.
But even so, Emperor Yuanwu was extremely worried about the Han people.
When the Yuan Dynasty was just established, the Han people wanted to monopolize the sword-making workshop and become the owner of the sword-making workshop. They wanted to control the weapon manufacturing of the Yuan Dynasty and use this to control the royal family.
If Emperor Yuanwu had not been prepared, the Han tribe would have succeeded.
In the two years after Nangong Yan's death, the Yuan Dynasty was in constant turmoil both internally and externally. The Han people were also extremely restless and secretly contacted the Northern Wing.
Emperor Yuanwu's cold eyes darkened, and he drew a circle on the paper, encircling the word "Han Clan": "Master Han, you'd better behave yourself, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless."
What the Han people did behind his back was enough for him to punish them, but when you think about it, the Han people made a lot of contributions to the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty. Over the past thirty years, the Han people also trained many skilled craftsmen and manufactured many weapons for the Yuan Dynasty.
He gave Han a break and did not reveal what Han had done in private.
"This is the last time." Emperor Yuanwu closed his eyes.
On this side, Xiao Jingxuan also received the news that Han Dalang had left the city.
Xiao Jingxuan asked Bai Xiaolou to follow secretly and find out what Han Dalang was going to do.
Three days later, Xiao Wenye and Su Xiaoluo's marriage was settled, and the wedding date was set on the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Xiao Tieshan and his family will celebrate the New Year in Beijing.
The drought in the northern wing is still continuing, and the plague in Fuso has not improved, and the root cause of the plague has not yet been found.
Just as Emperor Wu of Yuan had guessed, Fuso really wanted to bring the plague to the Yuan Dynasty and actually sent a civilian infected with the plague to the border. Fortunately, the soldiers stationed at the border were well prepared and killed the man and cremated the body before he could sneak in.
If any Fuso people approach, they will be killed without mercy.
Fuso merchants were forbidden to enter the Yuan Dynasty, and Yuan Dynasty merchants were not allowed to go to Fuso.
The Fuso Kingdom did not expect that the Yuan Dynasty would be so well prepared, making it difficult for them to find an opportunity to cause trouble.
Xiao Jingxuan came back from the palace and told Ye Tang what Fusang had done as a joke.
"The Fusang State lost more than it gained. The plague did not spread to the Yuan Dynasty. Instead, it took effect in the Fusang military camp, and many soldiers were infected with the disease."
"Fuso is now unable to take care of itself!"
Ye Tang sneered, "This country is really disgusting. It's a plague, and so many people have died. The Emperor of Fusang not only didn't try to control the epidemic, but also allowed it to spread. It's simply outrageous."
Xiao Jingxuan sighed: "The drought in the north wing is still continuing, and our Yuan Dynasty can be peaceful for a long time."
Ye Tang said: "While these two cancers are busy taking care of themselves, let's grow more food."
She leaned close to Jamel Xiao's ear and whispered, "My space has changed again, and there is one more seed."
"What seeds?" Xiao Jingxuan asked.
Ye Tang curled his lips and smiled: "Cotton."
There was no cotton in the five countries, and the clothes they wore were made of silk, linen, kudzu, animal skins and other materials.
Ye Tang told Xiao Jingxuan the function of cotton.
"The cotton seeds in my space are high-yield seeds. Even an ordinary field can produce 400 kilograms of cotton per mu. Cotton clothes made of cotton can keep you warm, especially suitable for ordinary people."
Jamel Xiao's eyes became brighter and brighter as he listened.
"Good stuff, this is good stuff, do you want to tell your uncle?"
Ye Tang rolled his eyes at him: "Of course you have to tell me, or I'll tell you what to do."
She has no shortage of money now, so she can buy as many seeds as she wants. There is no limit to the seeds in the space.
Jamel Xiao kissed her happily: "Thank you, my lady, I am so lucky to marry you! I will go and tell my uncle that I found the cotton in the mountains."
Ye Tang let him go.
Emperor Yuanwu was amazed when he heard about cotton.
"Is there really such a magical crop? Where is it? Let me see it."
Jamel Xiao smiled and said, “Not now, you’ll be able to see it when it’s grown.”
"Then why don't you plant it quickly?"
"You're too fierce, I won't plant it!"
"You stinky boy, you want a reward again!"
