Chapter 349 Shen Xi arrives
A total of five cotton warehouses were built, each with an area of more than 2,000 square meters. However, they were not built with bricks. Carpenters were hired to build them with wood, and the floors were also made of wood.
In view of the large number of workers hired by Song Changshang, the warehouse was built in half a month. With the factory to store cotton, everyone entered the period of picking cotton in full swing.
Halfway through the cotton picking, buyer Shen Xi arrived on time.
"These are the cottons you grew?"
Shen Xi looked at the warehouse of white cotton wool in front of him and was very surprised.
Song Changshang smiled slightly, "Brother, not only is this warehouse, there are four more in the back!"
"Based on one acre of land weighing one thousand kilograms, I have planted fifteen hundred acres. Brother, please calculate how many kilograms that will cost!"
"If you don't take some away first, I'm afraid the warehouse won't be able to hold it."
Shen Xi glanced at her and said curiously, "It's okay for me to take her away, but I want to ask you, people have never planted cotton as a plant before, and it has not even appeared in several countries. Why did you plant it all at once? so much?"
"Aren't you afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty? Then if the seeds don't germinate and there are no fruits in the fall, won't your work be in vain?"
Song Changshang wanted to think about what else it could be because of it. The system forced her to do it, and besides, she believed in the seeds she bought from the system!
But you can't say that.
She chuckled, "Brother, I saw cotton deep in Mao'er Mountain last year. I thought this cotton was similar to the kapok growing in the south, so I picked some and made it into a vest."
“It’s really warm when you wear it!”
“I was just thinking if this thing could be planted in large quantities, it would solve the winter problems of ordinary people!”
"Hey, it was a coincidence that I met a foreign businessman when I was shopping in Fuso City. He brought a cart of cotton seeds over to sell them. I bought them all for ten taels of silver!"
"I think the businessman may not know the use of cotton. He probably bought it from someone else, so he sold it to me at such a low price!"
"Otherwise, he would definitely take it back and plant it himself!"
Shen Xi was confused after hearing this, "So, you bought the land and rented it and planted it all. Didn't your father beat you?"
Indeed, Fuso City is located on the border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and there will be all kinds of merchants coming to do business, from several surrounding countries, as well as from some nearby small overseas countries.
But buying good products from these people depends entirely on luck!
I didn’t expect this girl to be so lucky. She bought all live seeds!
"My father definitely wouldn't agree, so I decided to kill it first and then pay it forward. I borrowed money to rent the land!"
Song Shangshang felt bitter in her heart. Damn it, it took many lies to tell a lie.
She swore that she would lie to the end in the future!
Shen Xi didn't need to ask, he knew who lent the money to this girl. Who else could it be besides His Highness Prince Jin!
He had thought there was something wrong between them before, and sure enough, hum!
"You rock!"
"By the way, His Highness Prince Jin asked me to pass this on to you."
Shen Xi took out an envelope from his arms.
Song Changshang was overjoyed. It had been more than a month since her Highness left, and there was finally news!
She didn't care if anyone was around and opened it to look at it. Two minutes later, Song Changshang closed the letter with some confusion on her face.
The letter said that the emperor's eldest son who was living abroad had been found.
Then his eldest son's daughter got sick, and he was asked to seek treatment.
She is the niece of King Jin!
"Brother, has anything big happened in Beijing in recent months?"
Shen Xi was stunned, "It's a big deal, but it's nothing? Oh, I remembered it!"
"The emperor named a man named Hu Jingshuo as Prince Duan. I heard that that man was a prince who lived abroad in his early years!"
"Still the eldest prince!"
"The Emperor's first son!"
"I also heard that Hu Jingshuo's mother was the emperor's favorite concubine when he was a prince!"
"It's a pity that he died during childbirth!"
"I also heard that that woman was the emperor's true love. If nothing had happened, she would be the queen on the throne now!"
Song Changshang nodded, "I can tell, it's true love!"
If it is not true love, can the son born to her be made a king? Can the son's daughter be made a princess?
At most, the princess!
However, Song Changshang was still confused, "I haven't found it for so many years, why did I find it suddenly?"
It can't be such a coincidence, right?
"I heard that the Queen found it, but I don't know the details."
"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go back and discuss the cotton purchase issue!"
Shen Xi waved his hand.
He didn't like Prince Duan very much. Although he was a businessman, he was also an imperial businessman, and he was also the brother-in-law of the eighth prince!
It's okay to say what's going on behind the scenes, but on the surface, the princes and grandsons are all polite to him.
But this King Duan, with his nostrils turned upward, said that he smelled like copper coins and was despicable!
How annoying!
I hate money, but I still run around for money!
"Okay, but you have to talk to my dad about this!"
Although her father doesn't care much about what she does, the cotton purchase issue is a big issue, so let her father deal with the big issue!
