Chapter 186 Wool Reprocessing Technology

Chen Huiyin readily accepted the new course: "Aunt Li, I have no problem, so how do you plan to arrange the courses, you can't learn everything at once!"

Aunt Li smiled and said: "Court etiquette and rules, every class has to last for seven quarters of an hour, after a quarter of an hour break, there will be another class, tea ceremony, incense, female celebrity and cooking will take turns."

So Chen Huiyin's class time for self-study arithmetic and mechanics was severely reduced, but she quickly adapted to it, and she learned etiquette, tea ceremony, and fragrance mixing very well, but female celebrities and cooking skills are really talented. No.

After Chen Huiyin pricked her fingers countless times, Nuhong finally managed to get started. As for cooking, she has no problem cutting vegetables and cooking, but when it comes to pasta and meat dishes, The results were somewhat disastrous.

After a period of time, Aunt Li decided that the little master really had no talent, so she stopped teaching the little master delicate pasta and complicated meat dishes, and instead taught her how to keep it hot, which requires precise knowledge of seasonings, seasonings and heat In control, it didn't take long for Chen Huiyin to master the seasoning, the amount of condiments, and the control of the heat.

The days came to the spring plowing, and then the spring plowing was over. At the end of April, Tuoba Xian brought a dozen carts of freshly sheared wool with his tribe.

Speaking of this wool, I have to mention that at the end of last year, she signed in on her own pasture and obtained a book on wool reprocessing technology.

Wool sweaters, wool quilts, and even wool blankets have been worn and used by Chen Huiyin in previous lives, and wool blankets have also been seen, but she doesn't know how these things are processed.

In the past, the wool cut by the herdsmen would be bought by rich merchants at a low price, and then resold to merchants from the Western Regions. The merchants from the Western Regions would make exquisite and gorgeous blankets from the harvested wool, and then sell them to Daqi at a high price, and the border mutual market was closed. From then on, the herdsmen lost even the meager income from wool, and their life became more and more miserable.

Tuoba Xian asked her more than once before, whether they could open up wasteland to grow corn around their tribe, Chen Huiyin went to see, that kind of natural grassland is not suitable for planting crops, and after signing the book of wool reprocessing technology, she thought A way to help catch the Baxian tribe.

They can be asked to spin the sheared wool into wool, weave it into clothes, and then buy it from Gu Xinfang and transport it to the south for sale. They can also make wool quilts and divide them into grades. No matter the rich or the common people, they can buy a bed. .

It's just that this technology is only presented in books at present, and Chen Huiyin has to experiment by herself, so she only mentioned the matter of collecting wool with Tuoba Xian, and wanted to ask Tuoba Xian to arrange women in the clan after the wool was successfully spun out. Come and learn.

At the same time, Chen Huiyin also sent a message to the steward of the pasture, asking him to organize people to shear the sheep, clean them, and send them to Daping Village when the weather warms up next year.

Then Chen Huiyin drew the spinning wheel again and asked the carpenter in the village to help make it. After many attempts, An Ning and Mei Shuang finally succeeded in spinning wool threads of different thicknesses, and collected natural dyes from nature. Dye the wool thread into red, blue, black and other colors.

Then she wove a red scarf with bamboo needles, because it was the simplest weaving method, not to mention An Ning and Mei Shuang, even the rough envoy at home had learned it.

After the wool spinning was successful, Chen Huiyin delivered a letter to Tuobaxian. A few days later, Gu Xinfang came back from the south and saw Chen Huiyin bringing the woolen yarn spun by someone and the scarf woven with woolen yarn. Business.

She said: "In the past two years, I have accumulated a considerable amount of money in my running business from south to north, and I have also cultivated manpower to take over the caravan. I am planning to open a shop. You can think about it." Out of this wool thread, we can use this as a breakthrough."

Chen Huiyin told Gu Xinfang of her previous plan: "I originally planned to teach the technology of spinning woolen yarn, and even the technology of weaving scarves, sweaters, and wool trousers to Tuoba Xian's clansmen, and we will take goods from them. Before you came back, I sent a message to Tuoba Xian, asking him to come over and discuss this matter.

Now you have a new idea, what to do with Tuoba Xian, you can't tell him to make a trip for nothing! "

Gu Xinfang didn't expect this to happen, she was silent for a moment, and then said: "There is no problem with your idea, but in this way, this industry is difficult to succeed, if you want to spin wool To make it into an industry, I think it must be a workshop, but Tuobaxian and his people do not have the ability to build a workshop.

So I think, we can pay to build a workshop, recruit the young patriarch Tuobaxian into the group, hire women from their tribe to work in the workshop, get a stable wage, and even link up with the surrounding small tribes to expand breeding and give them stable jobs ,What do you think? "

Chen Huiyin, who originally planned to develop a self-employed business, immediately opened her mind after Gu Xinfang mentioned this, and she said: "In order to expand the breeding, the pasture in the corresponding pasture must be replaced with pasture seeds with higher yields. feed, and avoid desertification of pasture grass due to excessive grazing by sheep.

We human beings rely on the natural environment to survive, and we cannot wantonly destroy the environment for an industry. Therefore, even if the breeding is expanded, there must be an upper limit for the number of sheep that can be raised on a pasture. Leave this to me, and I will calculate it as soon as possible. For the rest, Can you come and talk to Tuoba Xian? "

Gu Xinfang nodded in response, so two days later, Tuobaxian came to Chen's house, and when he saw Gu Xinfang, he was overjoyed: "Miss Gu, when did you come back from the south? you."

Looking at the enthusiastic Tuobaxian, Gu Xinfang suddenly didn't want to talk to him, or even cooperate, but everyone has already arrived, and there is no more suitable partner than him, so Gu Xinfang can only ignore Tuobaxian. With eager eyes, she went straight to the point: "Sister Qiao invited you here this time for a cooperation, please take a look at this thing first."

After Gu Xinfang finished speaking, she handed a ball of snow-white wool thread to Tuoba Xian.

Tuoba Xian took the woolen thread absent-mindedly, feeling the softness in his hand, and finally attracted his attention from Gu Xinfang's body to the woolen thread in his hand. After a while, Tuobaxian couldn't see why, so he could only speak. Ask: "Miss Gu, this thread seems to be different from what I usually see. Is there anything special about this thread?"

Gu Xinfang said: "This ball of wool is spun from wool." After she finished speaking, she picked up the red scarf that was put aside, handed it to Tuoba Xian and said, "This scarf is made of wool by Miss Qiao. The wool is dyed and woven, take a look."
