Chapter 208: The Jin Family's Technological Breakthrough
Er Ya not only praised Old Man Jin's family in his heart, but also was not stingy in terms of material, and also reminded them of the situations they might encounter in the future.
"Old Man Jin, you have done a good job in this confidential matter, and your host and I will discuss what kind of reward to give you! Also, no matter what new things come out in our family in the future, don't disclose them to the outside world. You technicians who specialize in making this new thing, in order to steal your technology, will try their best to win you over, corrupt you, and corrupt you, forcing you to finally get closer to them and reveal your knowledge and technology of those things you have made. Therefore, when you make friends or marry your children in the future, you must take a good look at it clearly, so as not to fall into the trap of others. ”
Old man Jin's secret rule was obtained from his father. At the beginning, after his father tinkered with the pick-up loom, he secretly weaved the pick-up silk with his old boss without telling everyone, and then defeated all his peers with this pick-up silk alone, and became a special supply weaving workshop for the royal tribute. His father also became a great hero of the old club, and was treated politely by the old club, until that mistake happened later, which ended the glory of their family in that period.
Because of his father's example in the past, he and his family are keeping secrets for the sake of the owner's new machine, which has never existed before. Today, he was specially praised by the lady of the owner for this matter, and he felt quite surprised, because this thing seemed to him to be a very normal thing. However, it is always a pleasure to be praised and rewarded, and he is not hypocritical to accept the kindness of the owner's lady.
He smiled happily and continued the previous topic: "Thank you for the kindness of the lady of the owner." This is what we should do, and we will be vigilant in the future. Never let the lady of the proprietor come up with these good things, let others play tricks and tricks.
The machine you said earlier about weaving towels. My boss has already made it, and we have tried to weave some of them, so you can show the effect. ”
Old man Jin said, took a few pieces of try-knitting towels from the eldest son standing next to him, and handed them to the lady of the owner with both hands.
Erya can be seen without getting closer, this is the simplest and roughest kind of towel weaving. In later generations, it was used as a disposable towel. But it's a big step here. High-end towel products, and then step by step slowly pondering. There is already a beginning, and the rest is easy.
"That's right! That's how it works. However, this is the simplest and the roughest, and it is only suitable for ordinary people with poor family backgrounds. In fact, you can also weave a more precise, thick, and soft high-end towel than this, and then weave a flat satin flower at both ends. Specially for the use of the wealthy. ”
Old man Jin interjected with some concern: "The lady of the owner." We are all used to washing our faces with a cloth towel, and it really doesn't matter if we use this towel or not. If you just weave this kind of face towel, I'm afraid it won't be easy to sell! ”
Er Ya has considered this, maybe in the initial sales, it is indeed possible to encounter difficulties, but when everyone is used to using towels, it will be uncomfortable for them to use cloth towels. Wait until washing your face with a towel has become a common sense in the market of this towel. But it's big.
Just like a sweater, it has now become a must-have clothing in spring and autumn in their prefecture. Although no one uses it as a luxury to show off, it is also an unbearable embarrassment for ordinary family members if they do not have a sweater on their bodies.
Besides, her towel is more than just a way to wash your face! In order to improve the enthusiasm of the Jin family, she said to Mr. Jin very wholeheartedly: "Mr. Jin! First of all, I thank you for being able to think about the issues that are far and comprehensive. But don't worry! Maybe you always think that this is just for washing your face, so the market may not be large. In fact, it is not only a small towel for washing your face, but also a large towel for bathing, a towel quilt for a thin quilt in summer, a bathrobe, a small handkerchief, a special towel for covering pillows, and a foot mat for large families to put under their feet when bathing. Their future needs will definitely not be small, so you can do it boldly!
The fact that you can do your best to make what I want is the greatest help to me, and I don't have to think too much about the rest. If you've made things well, and I'm not able to get them to do what they're supposed to do, that's my problem. ”
Old man Jin was dumbfounded when he heard this, obediently! How many uses are there?! He nodded again and again while listening, and waited until the lady of the owner stopped talking before he responded: "Hey! Yes! Yes! Let's just do it! And the canvas machine you wanted, my third child also fiddled it out. We're going to show you around?! ”
"Good! Check it out! ”
Erya was taken to the backyard. According to the original meaning of Erya, they were to go to the bag workshop and leather clothing workshop that were still vacant to make machines, but in order to keep it secret, the Jin family operated it in a relatively small space in the backyard. There are several machines in the backyard, and two of them are looms at a glance. The other two Guya couldn't understand it, but she could roughly guess what she needed. However, she didn't ask, believing that after a while, they would all have to explain to her one by one.
Jin Fujiang first took the lady of the owner to see not the loom that Er Ya thought he had, but a spinning machine.
"Lady of the proprietor, this is a spinning machine, and it is the yarn that is needed to spin the kind of canvas that is specially woven. The loom of that kind of cloth is not difficult, but the yarn spun by the general spinning wheel cannot be used, so I thought about this spinning machine specifically for the purpose of spinning that kind of yarn. ”
This time Erya is more convinced, and the layman just doesn't understand! She always thinks about the loom, and people who know how to do it know the key issue after a few tinkering, spinning is the most important thing. Ay! Forget it, there's no need to be sour, as long as people can get what they want!
Erya looked at the machines in front of her very excitedly, but she had to pretend to be calm on her face. She doesn't have to pretend to be deep, she just doesn't want the Jin family to see her moody and angry, and they will think that she has an impetuous temperament, so that the people who follow her will feel unsteady. It is easy to cause many incidents in the future.
After listening to Jin Fujiang's explanation, she nodded and said in a solemn tone: "You are very powerful." I was able to quickly see what the problem was and deal with it myself, without wasting time thinking about waiting for me to come back. This is good! As she spoke, she saw Jin Shangfeng, who had been following her grandfather and uncle, and asked, "Jin Shangfeng, how is your machine doing?" ”
Jin Shangfeng saw that the lady of the owner finally asked himself, and happily squeezed to the front and replied: "I have done it too." It's just that there is a small problem that always can't be done, and my grandfather and uncle have been thinking about it for a long time, but there is no way to solve it! ”
"Oh! What kind of little fault. Tell me, maybe I know how to deal with it! Erya thought that she couldn't get the whole machine out, but she had dealt with a lot of small problems before, but she didn't know if she had encountered this small problem.
Jin Shangfeng listened to the words of the owner's lady. Eyes widened. Unbelievably asked: "Lady of the East Family, are you serious?" ”
His grandfather slapped it over and scolded: "The lady of the proprietor told you to say it, just say it, what are you asking?" ”
Jin Shangfeng pouted, rubbed the back of his head that was a little painful by his grandfather, and walked to a shelf that looked like a small long table, and Erya also stepped forward. When Jin Shangfeng took out the yarn one by one to beat the thread ends and weave them, she also looked at this most primitive and simple knitting machine very carefully.
A row of dozens of crochet hooks. The brushes are inserted side by side in the grooves. The tip of the crochet hook is a flat long board with grooves that can move up and down, and the tongue on the crochet hook also closes one by one along with the top and bottom of the flat plate. Above and below the platform is a loom-like curved rod pedal. It can be operated with feet. Although people have done a good job, they look simple if the children play at home, but you must know that the Jin family has never seen a knitting machine, even if this is their old business, it is not difficult to do. However, this can be regarded as a major breakthrough in people's technology.
Jin Shangfeng only weaved back and forth for four or five years, and Er Ya knew what this little problem was. asked: "Is the little problem you are talking about this always have the problems of skipping needles, thread loss, and thread breakage?" ”
As soon as Jin Shangfeng heard what the lady of the owner asked, he knew that people really understood! nodded excitedly, and asked eagerly: "That's the problem, does the owner know why?" ”
Of course, Er Ya knows: "There are several reasons for this problem, one is a mistake during operation, the second is that there is a problem with the crochet needle to change the needle, the third is that there is a problem with the groove, the height is uneven, so that the crochet needle is not on a plane, the fourth is that there is a problem with this line, it is very likely that it is about to break, and the fifth is that there is a problem with the shuttle, the wire is too tight, and it is easy to break the line." You can find the reason in these areas, and if there is a problem with the crochet needle, I can find someone to do it again. ”
Everyone in the Jin family looked at the owner lady in surprise, it turned out that this owner lady really understood!
Jin Shangfeng no longer worries about whether the owner lady understands the problem or not, but is annoyed with himself, and has always thought that it is the problem of the machine. Because in his opinion, this machine is too simple, and he always feels that something is wrong. So if there are these problems, it must be that your machine is doing something wrong. How do you know that although the machine is simple, it is confused by yourself, but it does not mean that the machine is done, everything is fine, it turns out that there are still so many details to deal with. It's like the third uncle's canvas machine, not only to make a good canvas machine, but also to make a suitable spinning machine to match.
Because of my own self-righteousness, I wasted a lot of time. If you are like the third uncle, think about it more, maybe you can be the same as the third uncle, and it will be put into use in a few days.
Ay! Let's quickly eliminate the problem from these aspects! Jin Shangfeng still knew the severity, and did not waste his time on annoyance, and immediately devoted himself to the elimination of the problem. Seeing that no one next to Jin Shangfeng began to busy his machine, the second girl smiled and took the lead in leading the rest of the Jin family back to the hall.
Waiting for the lady of the proprietor to sit down, the old man Jin sat down on the side. When the men were talking to the lady of the host family, the women of the Jin family, who had been watching and murals, began to move at this time, and they poured the tea that the lady of the host had drunk before into another cup, and made a new cup of tea and sent it again.
