Chapter 575 Wool Textiles (Part 2)

As the saying goes, there is no airtight wall in the world. The day after Li Muyun got into trouble in his own wool mill, he was recruited into the palace by His Majesty Li Er again.

To be honest, Li Muyun actually didn't want to go. He was upset when he thought that Li Muyun and the dog were unable to enter the palace without any intention. But when he thought that he would have to make a living under the imperialist leader in the future, Prince Xiaoyao had to lift his butt and go to the palace to meet him.

Li Er seemed to be in a good mood this time, but he just put a few Taoist priests and an altar in the imperial study room. What's wrong? Li Muyun looked at it for a long time but couldn't figure it out.

Li Er looked up by chance and immediately saw Li Muyun sneaking in the door. He slapped the table and shouted: "Get in!"

"Hehe, second brother, are you looking for me?" Li Muyun looked at the decorations in the room, nodded and asked.

"Be honest, don't be smiling." Li Er glared at someone, pointed to a futon on the ground and said, "Go there and kneel."

"Ah? Why?" Li Muyun blinked his eyes and moved a few unwillingly. Then he enjoyed the same treatment as the three fat men yesterday. Li Er shouted angrily: "If you ask you to kneel down, why are you talking nonsense?"

Yes, just kneel down. Looking at the altar in front of him, Li Muyun knew that he could not twist his thighs with his arms, and knelt on the cushion with a drooping eyebrows.

Then, Li Muyun saw the Taoist priests rumbling and moving, roaming bells and sprinkling water, and one of them was holding grains and smashing it on him.

What's going on? Li Muyun was stunned in an instant and looked at Li Er blankly, with an unknown premonition in his heart. Then, before he could react, a Taoist priest stuffed a piece of burnt yellow paper into the bowl of water held in his hand and handed it to him: "Drink it!"

Drink it? What kind of thing? No one will die after drinking it, right? Li Muyun looked at Li Er with innocent eyes, but Li Er ignored him at all. Instead, he nodded frequently to the behavior of the Taoist priests.

No tricks, drink it! Even if Li Muyun is stupid, he knows what kind of ritual these Taoist priests should be holding. If he doesn't do it, the big black man at the door will probably come in and use it.

After finally drinking the water, Li Muyun saw the Taoist priests starting to circle around him, while muttering something. He didn't understand the specifics, only the last sentence "The Emperor of the Supreme One is as anxious as the rule of law" made him feel as if this was a ritual to exorcise ghosts.

Half an hour later, Li Muyun's legs were already numb when his knees were kneeling. The Taoist priests finally stopped, bowed to Li Er and then retreated. In addition, a palace servant came in and carried the altar down.

Li Muyun grinned awkwardly until they all left: "Second brother, can you get up now?"

Li Er waved his hand and signaled that he could get up, then stared at him with a burning look and asked, "How is it? Do you feel that you are more brisk?"

To be honest, Li Muyun now only feels that both legs are not his own, but in order not to let the scene just happen again, he can only pretend to be surprised and shouted: "Hey? It seems that my mind is really clear. Second brother, what happened just now?"

"You are so careless, you are possessed by evil spirits and can't even notice it. Fortunately, Su Lie came to me yesterday and said that you were abnormal and attracted my attention. Otherwise, you would be in danger in another half a year."

Li Er's expression was very serious and didn't look like he was fake. Li Muyun suddenly felt amused and laughed. Last night, he just knitted a two-inch fur scarf, which alarmed the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty. He didn't know whether he should be happy or depressed.

Fortunately, those Taoist priests were quite kind and did not tell Li Er to put it on the fire, otherwise their lives would have been reimbursed directly.

But then again, Li Muyun didn't expect Li Er to care so much about him. He had always thought that His Majesty the Emperor disliked him and was trying to make trouble for him in different ways, but after this incident happened, Comrade Li felt that he had misunderstood something.

You know, this is Li Er’s imperial study room, where he can open an orchestra, and Li Er personally supervises it, which shows his importance to him.

Thinking of this, Li Muyun threw all other ideas aside and saluted Li Er seriously: "I thanked my brother for your concern! I will be sent to you in the future, but I will never refuse."

Unexpectedly, Li Shimin was unhappy and snorted: "You guys save money, I will be content if I cause less trouble in the future!"

"Hehe" Li Muyun touched his nose and laughed dryly, found a place to sit down by himself, and asked Li Er: "Brother, you asked me to come today for this matter, right?"

"Mainly this, and I heard that the wool you collected can be spun into thread?"

"Yes, it's spun into thread, otherwise I wouldn't have knitted that scarf. The wool is too thick and there is no way to do it like weaving cloth, so I can only weave it bit by bit." Li Muyun explained.

Li Er frowned, probably because he felt something was wrong, but in order not to embarrass himself, he did not continue to ask, but instead changed the topic: "So what can yarn do?"

Naturally, Li Muyun would not deny Li Er's kindness to drive away ghosts at this time, so he could only skip this paragraph and continue saying: "Of course it is made into clothes or pants. Emperor, I will tell you that although the warmth effect after the thing is made is not as good as the fur today, it is much better than a single garment, and it is still very comfortable to put it in."

"And after passing the spinning level, many things will be solved. For example, we can press some broken wool together, then make it into shoes, or make it into blankets and felts. In short, as long as we complete the degreasing work, wool will have many uses."

Although Li Er had never seen the real thing, he saw Li Muyun's swearing and believed it, and smacked his lips and asked, "Then what you mean is that this wool can continue to be acquired, right?"

"Yes, we must collect it, and we need as much as we need, and even if possible, we have to sell it back to the grassland." Li Muyun said with a little smugness: "In this way, we did not spend a penny, but we got a lot of wool."

"At the same time, it destroyed the ecological environment of the grassland and let those aliens fight to death by themselves. You kid are indeed treacherous." Li Er took over the conversation, and showed a look of my optimistic expression on his face and continued, "But I like this method, you must do it as soon as possible."

When Li Er handed over the matter to him again, Li Muyun was shocked: "Ah? It's me again? Brother, the matter of my fiefdom has not been resolved yet. The management committee still has no horoscope, so how can I do this? Otherwise, you might as well change someone else."
