The hemp silk trees in the No. 6 greenhouse and the cotton in the No. 7 greenhouse are all ripe.

As mentioned before, the hemp silk fruit is a yellow berry, and the mature individual is about the size of an adult's fist, but that is not the final ripe form of the hemp silk fruit, the fully ripe hemp silk fruit, the shell has turned dark red, dry and hard, Tianming picks a hemp silk fruit, peels it off, and sees the hemp silk cocoon inside.

It may not be appropriate to use "hemp" to describe this kind of silkworm cocoon flocculent, the color of hemp silk is pure white, take out a pinch and rub it, the feel is delicate and soft, and there is a faint sense of coolness.

Holding a magnifying glass in his hand and observing for a while, Cheng Fangwen said: "The diameter of the plant fiber of hemp silk is much finer than cotton, and the toughness and stretch are also better than cotton, and it is not easy to fluff. ”

Generally speaking, the clothes worn on the body can be made of a variety of materials, which can be linen, cotton, silk, wool, rabbit down, mink, and even chemically synthesized nylon, polyester, and vinylon, and the main function is to keep warm, comfortable, and beautiful.

If you analyze the advantages and disadvantages of these materials only from the perspective of warmth, you only need to look at the thickness of the fibers.

The finer the fiber diameter, the better the thermal insulation performance.

The fiber fineness of cotton is about 20 microns, silk is the finest natural fiber, with a cross-sectional diameter of about 10 microns, and the fineness range of cashmere fiber is very narrow, about 13-19 microns.

There is a group of animals called "Tibetan antelope" living in the western Tibetan plateau of H country, they live on the snowy plateau with a temperature of dozens of degrees below zero all year round, in order to maintain normal body temperature, the wool on the Tibetan antelope is very insulated, the finest diameter of the cashmere fiber surface is 6-7 microns, and the average fineness is about 13 microns, which is better than the ordinary varieties of cashmere, and is the most thermal cashmere in the world.

It is said to be a scarf woven from Tibetan antelope cashmere. In order to make money, poachers frantically hunt Tibetan antelopes on the western Tibetan plateau, peel their fur, and even let go of the newborn baby antelope, the result is that this animal was once on the verge of extinction, if it were not for the timely and effective national protection measures, they severely cracked down on poaching. Probably, this animal will no longer exist zài.

Cheng Fangwen took out an instrument, carefully measured the fineness and length of the hemp silk, and finally was overjoyed.

"The average fineness of hemp silk is about 15 microns, much finer than cotton, and cashmere, which shows that the warmth of hemp silk will be much better than cotton, and the fiber length, the average fiber length of hemp silk is 15-20 cm, which is about three times that of cotton. This shows that hemp silk is easier to weave into clothes than cotton, and the toughness is far better than cotton! ”

In ancient times, people used rudimentary looms to weave cloth, which was very inefficient. Sometimes it takes half a year to weave a complete cotton cloth, because the cotton is a clump and must be kneaded into a thin thread first. It is made into spindles, and then a large number of spindles are placed on the spinning wheel to weave cotton cloth one by one.

Cotton has a shorter fiber length. About 1-5cm, in the process of spinning, it takes a number of processes to twist into a thread, which is much more troublesome than weaving silk cloth, because a silkworm cocoon is composed of a piece of silk, as long as you find the thread, you can put it on the spinning machine.

The fiber length of hemp silk is longer, which means that in the process of spinning yarn, hemp silk can be spun into hemp silk thread very lightly, saving a lot of labor and cost, and can completely replace cotton, carry out large-scale promotion, and become a new type of clothing raw material.

"The hemp silk tree can grow in seawater, which is far better than growing on land, no need to fertilize, as long as the seawater is occasionally replaced, and the hemp silk tree is not planted once a year like cotton, it can produce stubble after stubble of hemp silk fruit, the yield seems to be very high, although the hemp silk fruit picking is not very convenient, but this is not a big problem at all."

Cheng Fangwen said excitedly, while letting Tianming build a ladder to come out, and put the ladder across the hemp silk forest, with the help of the support effect generated by the buoyancy of the hemp silk tree, Cheng Fangwen walked in, and after a while, he picked a basket of ripe hemp silk fruits.

"Look, this basket of hemp silk fruits should be able to weave a few clothes."

"Uncle, you still have to look at me, you can help me calculate the yield of hemp silk fruit."

Tianming smiled and looked at the dense red hemp silk fruit, a bit like a persimmon tree, but the fruit density was much higher than the persimmon on the persimmon tree, and he didn't talk nonsense, he directly opened the ability space and picked all the ripe hemp silk fruits.

The hemp silk trees on the surface of nearly 15 acres of water in the two pools have all been picked. Tianming came to the No. 7 greenhouse next to him and collected all the cotton in this greenhouse space into the ability space.

When I was a child, Tianming remembered that I had harvested cotton with my parents and brothers, and was often scolded by my mother for not picking up the cotton in the cotton peach, and then she picked it up again.

He remembered a joke again, a pound of cotton and a pound of iron, which one weighs? About 90% of people who are asked this question for the first time will say that iron is heavy, and then the person who is despised will use this question to despise others, so as to gain a sense of superiority in IQ and relieve the depression after being despised shì.

The yield of cotton per mu is generally 200-500 kg, and it can reach 600 kg under the conditions of the right time, place and people, and the cotton grown in a small space, the right time and place and all the people, the yield is naturally far more than the outside, Cheng Fangwen roughly estimated that the yield per mu is not a big problem of 1200 kg.

What is the output, you can find out by weighing.

The density of cotton is relatively small, and it is piled up like a hill in the ability space, and Tianming didn't bring so many snakeskin bags in, so it's not good to say, he had to think of a way to make a super large balance in the ability space, and then pile the mountain-like hemp silk fruit on one end of the scale, pile the cotton on the other side of the scale, and then look at the weight over there.

As expected, it is still heavier than the hemp silk fruit, because it is weighed in the shell, although the hemp silk fruit shell is very thin, accounting for a small amount, but there are more hemp silk fruits, the impact on the result is naturally greater, Tianming can not judge, is it the high yield of hemp silk fruit, or the yield of cotton is high?

"Overall, it should be about the same, but the hemp silk fruit can be harvested one by one. This comparison is not very significant, hemp silk tree, the potential must be far more than cotton. ”

In this case, there is no need to plant cotton in the No. 7 greenhouse space in the future, and there are many blue stars on the side of Blue Mercury, and the clothes imported from the earth are a large amount, which is more troublesome, so Tianming thought about it, so he dug two large pools in the No. 7 greenhouse space and poured them into the blue mercury seawater. He scattered the seeds of the hemp tree.

The No. 8, No. 9 and No. 10 greenhouse spaces are planted with some fruit trees and other crops, including the fruit trees of the earth and Blue Mercury, which have basically grown, and some of them grow fast, already more than 2 meters tall.

No. 11 is used as a greenhouse for cooling. Now it needs to play a small role, because other greenhouses are planted with plants, which can take away a lot of light energy, and the problem of easy rise in the temperature of the greenhouse space is no longer a problem. But in order to maintain convection, the exhaust fan in this greenhouse is still working to ventilate the plants. It can also effectively improve the yield of crops.

"Uncle Cheng, there's nothing for me to do here, I'll leave it to you here. I'll go to Blue Mercury and come back to see you in a few days. ”

"Okay, you go and get busy with you."

……

Blue Mercury.

It's September 22, 002 in the Bright Calendar.

The expansion of the Arctic ice cap has finally come to an end and is no longer moving forward.

The biting cold was still a little unbearable, even if Tianming wore several more clothes in advance.

"His Majesty the God King is back."

After a while, several elders hurriedly came to the council temple on the Little Blue Star to discuss the recent events in the Kingdom of God with Tianming.

During this time, there were many pairs of Blue Star people who violated the ban, and finally three women became pregnant, and they are currently in custody.

Elder Hongka said: "Your Majesty the God King, things that are prohibited without permission have been repeatedly prohibited, and not severely punished is not enough to produce deterrence, I think these women should be dedicated to the god of the sea, so as to prevent this kind of thing from happening." ”

Tianming frowned, offering to the sea god is equivalent to asking for their lives, this punishment is a bit too heavy, and said:

"There is no need to sacrifice to the god of the sea, they are not guilty of a great sin, but only because of physical needs...... And this kind of thing is better to be blocked, no matter how restricted, I am afraid that there will still be many people who violate the ban in the future, it is better to lift the ban, they want to give birth to it. ”

Elder Mo Ji hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty the God King, this matter must not be allowed!" The sea is not land, if there are no rules, it is to be chaotic, and those few people must be severely punished! ”

Elder Maiga also said: "If they are not put to death, they will at least be reduced to slavery." ”

Tianming has a headache, how can such a thing be restrained? Life is precious, love is more valuable, under the effect of male hormones and estrogen, it is possible for anything to happen between men and women, what is so strange about a big belly? If you want to blame it, blame this damn end at the wrong time.

Why don't you get a batch of sets from the earth?

Or develop avoidance/pregnancy pills or something.

It's not easy to do, it's not easy to do, the Blue Star people are not like the earthlings, they haven't seen some things yet, they may not be used to it, the earthlings have all kinds of equipment available, no matter how messy it is, there will be no accidents, the Blue Star people can only hold back, and it will be ten years.

It is absolutely impossible to execute three forbidden women, Tianming cannot agree, and several elders also understand this, so they have not carried out the execution for a long time, but just locked up a few people, waiting for him to come up with an idea.

After thinking about it, Tianming said: "Those few people should be let go, and then issue an order: You can get married and have children at sea, but each couple can only have two at most, and I will find a way to get some things to prevent pregnancy in the later stage, with these things, they should not have a superbirth." ”

"His Majesty the God King!"

Several elders were still struggling to persuade them.

"Needless to say, it's a good thing to have more people, and I'll be responsible for the consequences!"

The elders had to sigh, since His Majesty the God King was willing to bear the consequences, there was no point in them talking about it.

Soon, the ban on not having children at sea was announced, and as soon as the news went down, it immediately caused a sensation in the Kingdom of God, and many Blue Star people couldn't believe it, but after several women who were already pregnant were acquitted, almost all the people who had objects gave a shocking cheer, and those who had no objects could only shake their heads, His Majesty the God King was too merciful.

Tianming went to the logistics warehouse, took out all the hemp silk fruits and cotton in the ability space, put them in the warehouse, and asked a few skilled Mi Ma to come over, and asked them to weave some clothes out of hemp silk, it is best to make it fit and comfortable, if he is satisfied, he will give them a lot of rewards.

Mi Ma said excitedly: "Your Majesty the God King, we will definitely make a few clothes that will satisfy you." ”
