"I''m sorry! It was my king who reduced you here."

    Li Zhi said with tears in his eyes and a guilty face. He knew that in the eyes of a rational person like Wu Meiniang, any cover up was useless. The only way was to admit his mistake honestly.

    Sure enough, Wu Mei Niang sighed, "you are not wrong. What is wrong is our concept."

    In the face of a man who loves himself, no matter who the woman is, she can''t be cruel, even Wu Meiniang, who is extremely intelligent.

    "No, if it weren''t for me, you would still be a senior senior senior sister of the Mohist school, instead of working hard in a small cotton mill." Li Zhi said with a sad face.

    Wu Meiniang said firmly, "this is my own choice and the punishment I deserve. I don''t blame anyone."

    "Don''t worry, I''m going to ask my father and mother to end the imperial concubine selection. Even if I don''t want to be the king of Jin, I''ll spend my life with you alone and monogamous." Li Zhi said painfully.

    Wu Mei Niang said with a bitter smile, "just forgive me! Do you think I''m not miserable enough? If master knows that you''re making trouble with your majesty because of me again, I''m afraid you have to assign me to the steel plant."

    Li Zhi put away his acting skills and looked at a messy cotton spinning workshop. He said proudly, "don''t worry, no matter how much cotton spinning your workshop produces in the future, I will accept it at a high price."

    Wu Mei Niang shook her head and said, "no, I appreciate your kindness. Now you''d better stay away from me, otherwise I can only be more unlucky in the end."

    No matter how Li Zhi persuades Wu Meiniang, she never accepts Li Zhi''s good intentions. Finally, she can only leave reluctantly.

    "Lord, why don''t we secretly create some trouble? I believe Miss Wu will naturally turn to the Lord when she is desperate." a eunuch gave a bad idea.

    Li Zhi sneered and said, "stupid, I just need to be responsible for making good to Meiniang. As for these bad things, naturally someone should do them properly."

    "Your Majesty is wise!" the eunuch flattered.

    After Li Zhi left, Wu Meiniang threw herself into the cumbersome textile and looked at the cloth in a warehouse. Wu Meiniang nodded with satisfaction.

    However, when she pulled the carefully woven cotton textile to the market for sale, the market poured cold water on her.

    "Eldest martial sister, it''s not that villains refuse to pay a high price, but the market situation is like this. Villains only pay this price when they see that the quality of your cloth is good." a cotton textile merchant looked at Wu Meiniang''s cotton cloth and haggled desperately.

    Wu Meiniang frowned. Recently, the price of cotton cloth in Chang''an City has dropped sharply, which is the highest price that Chang''an merchants can offer. However, after selling all these cotton cloth and paying wages, the cotton spinning workshop will lose a lot.

    Of course, if she could find the Mohist school to sell, in her capacity, the price would be needless to say, but the arrogant Wu Meiniang was unwilling to take advantage of it and was complacent that she would sell these cotton fabrics at a low price as soon as she gritted her teeth, because she knew that the more now, the more goods can not be overstocked. Only by obtaining capital turnover can the cotton spinning workshop be saved.

    After selling the cotton textile, Wu Meiniang walked on the street of Chang''an City and couldn''t help thinking. Her eyes can naturally see that under such a vicious circle, the cotton textile workshop can''t last long, and now she must think of ways to break the situation.

    "There are only two ways to bring the cotton mill back to life. One is to improve the textile efficiency, reduce the cost of cotton cloth, and the price is king. In this way, the cotton cloth produced by the cotton mill can be invincible. The other way is to make superior cloth and obtain high profits." Wu Meiniang thought in her heart.

    "If you want to do something, do something big." Wu Meiniang said in her heart. Finally, she turned her eyes to silk. Only silk perfectly agreed with her requirements.

    "Meiniang, think twice! The price of silk has fallen year after year, and it is much less valuable than before. What market will it be in the future?" advised the accompanying Mohist daughter-in-law.

    Wu Meiniang smiled bitterly. She didn''t know the reason why the price of silk fell. It was master''s vigorous promotion of cotton planting that led to the sharp decline in the value of cloth. If master hadn''t vigorously promoted the silk road plan, the price of silk would have to collapse. Rao is so, the price of silk still fell continuously.

    "If silk is not favored by people, we have the opportunity to make silk. Nowadays, men and women in the Tang Dynasty cultivate and weave, and cotton cloth is everywhere, which is difficult to sell. Even a large number of cotton clothes are unsalable, but silk is not. The so-called Luo Qi is not a silkworm breeder, but most of those who can afford silk are wealthy families, and these people are the main force to buy silk." Wu Meiniang calmly analyzed.

    In the farming era, no one would spend money on anything that could be made by themselves, and silk was an exception. In addition, there were many rich families in Chang''an City and the business was prosperous, so the silk business had great prospects.

    "But now the silk has been monopolized by the Wei family and other aristocratic families, how can we compete with them?" the Mohist daughter-in-law worried.

    Wu Meiniang patted her chest and promised, "don''t worry. From now on, my senior sister will start designing more advanced spinning machines. In addition, Meiniang has obtained the printing and dyeing secret recipe from Taoist Changsheng. Once it is successful, the silk of our workshop will certainly be popular in the Tang Dynasty."

    "This... OK!" the Mohist daughter-in-law had no choice but to obey. Now the cotton textile industry has reached the bottleneck. Spinning and weaving silk is not a way out.

    "At that time, I''ll let all the men in Chang''an City have a look. I, Wu Meiniang, can also make a career with my own hands." Wu Meiniang said proudly.

    "We believe you!" the accompanying Mohist daughters-in-law clenched their fists.

    "Brother Liu''s speech is too unreasonable. Who says women are not as good as men..." Wu Meiniang hummed a minor, couldn''t wait to turn the carriage and return to the cotton spinning workshop. No, I''m afraid it will become a silk workshop in the future.

    Wu Meiniang, who returned to the cotton spinning workshop, was like a changed person. She hid in the workshop all day and kept experimenting, while other Mohist daughters-in-law still spun cotton and struggled to maintain.

    With the passage of time, Wu Meiniang''s cotton mill is in a more and more difficult situation, which is going to be difficult to maintain.

    "Who says that women are not as good as men? Even the great senior sister of the Mohist school left the support of the Mohist School and disappeared from the public. This world has always been a man''s world. The so-called female master Chang is just a joke."

    Many people who secretly pay attention to Wu Meiniang gloat. In their opinion, without the platform of Mohism, Wu Meiniang will be like most women in a short time.

    In this secret person, yin and Yang Zi shows a sneer. Wu Meiniang''s situation is carefully planned by him. Once Wu Meiniang''s situation becomes difficult, her heart will change over time. At that time, yin and Yang family will take advantage of it.
