Chapter 208: Textile Machinery Completed

"How, my loom here does not need to be manual, the speed and quality are faster than manual, and the price is cheaper!"

Although there were some suspicions of having an axe, Zhao Rui still said proudly.

"This ...... Actually, it could be faster and better......"

Sure enough, it was a textile saint, Huang Xiu immediately came up with a few improvement measures, and told Zhao Rui in detail, and then made Zhao Rui dizzy, because these looms were made by Lin Mengyao and her mother with reference to the drawings, and Zhao Rui really couldn't understand some details of the problem.

"Don't tell me this, I'll take you to meet someone, and you two will study it then!"

Zhao Rui ordered someone to drive a carriage and sent himself and Huang Xiu to the textile workshop.

When they arrived in the workshop, Zhao Rui introduced Huang Xiu to Lin Mengyao and Lin Mu, and at first the two didn't care, because they were already experienced in weaving, and they didn't think that this woman who was not amazing could be so powerful.

But when Huang Xiu said the suggestion to modify the loom, both of them looked at her incredulously, because what she said was completely feasible in theory, and she could also feel that her deep understanding of textile technology was completely above her mother and daughter.

"Great, Brother Zhao, you've invited a master!"

Huang Xiu is calm, seems to have experienced a lot of ups and downs, and only smiled faintly at the praise.

"Sister Huang comes with me, the spinning machine I am studying still has difficulties, you can definitely help me!"

Lin Mengyao became enthusiastic and took Huang Xiu's hand to the private room, and Lin Mu followed behind.

Zhao Rui had nothing to do, looking at the women in the workshop who were spinning all the time, thinking that there might be no need for so many people in the future.

From beginning to end, there are too many processes in a piece of clothing, which is simply the torture of God for human beings, and now there are industrial looms, which are of great significance to free human beings from tedious and infinitely repetitive labor.

"Yikes! It's done! ”

Lin Mengyao's happy voice came from the single room, and then Lin Mengyao opened the curtain and shouted: "Brother Zhao, come and see, Sister Huang has only made small changes, and the textile machine can run normally!" ”

So fast!

How long has it been?

Zhao Rui didn't expect that he would be distracted for a while, and the textile machine had already been changed over there.

"I'll take a look at ......"

Zhao Rui hurriedly walked into the single room, if the textile machine is also completed, then more manpower can be liberated!

In the room, Huang Xiu stood aside and chuckled, Lin Mengyao happily grabbed her arm, and Lin Mu shook her gears in disbelief.

With the rotation of Lin Mu's arm, the eight spindles placed on the loom were slowly rotating, and the strong cotton threads were wrapped around the spindles.

The dryness and disconnection that plagued Lin Mengyao before disappeared all at once.

"Huang Xiu, it turns out that you are so powerful!" Zhao Rui couldn't help but admire.

Huang Xiu did not take credit, but said: "I think the people who still think of this method are the most powerful, I originally had the idea of multiple spindles, but according to my thinking, there can only be three spindles at most, but today seeing such a structure, I think maybe I can design more spindles, even if it is more than 100 or ten, it will not be a problem!" ”

So much......

Lin Mengyao and Lin Mu gasped at the same time, more than 100 spindles are too amazing, if it were another person, he would definitely be a believer, but now that Huang Xiu said it, it means that it is very likely to be made.

And Zhao Rui knew that such an idea was completely feasible, so he asked Huang Xiu to live in the Lin family, and usually went to the workshop to study the textile machine together, so that he could take care of it.

For such an arrangement, both parties are satisfied, Huang Xiu came to Jiaozhi alone, it is more convenient to live in the home of two women, and Lin Mengyao feels that she can learn technology from Huang Xiu, and she is even more happy, and with Huang Xiu's help, you can design a better textile machine for Brother Zhao!

Huang Xiu's arrival gave Zhao Rui a great surprise, she not only improved the details of the water conservancy looms, so that they can run quickly and stably, but also supervised the manufacture of textile machines, she is meticulous, and the prototype can be equipped with 80 spindles.

80 spindles are wound at the same time, which can frighten the people in the workshop, but this is still the gear that Zhao Rui contributed to shake, and the next step is to enter mass production, and then build a water conservancy factory, so that without the action of the steam engine, the two factories can continue to operate.

Although the output is not comparable to that of large factories, everything has a sequence, Rome was not built in a day, and the loom and loom have some details that need to be adjusted, so it can be said that now is the maturity and perfection of the machine.

For printing and dyeing, Huang Xiu is also very experienced, all kinds of pigments from picking to production is also at hand, for the more difficult bright yellow and purple, there are also unique practices.

With the cotton cloth and raw silk brought back by Xia Guixian, the raw material reserves are finally sufficient, but in view of the characteristics of uninterrupted production, and the fact that Xia Guixian went for too long last time, Zhao Rui ordered him to go out to purchase textile raw materials quickly.

Cloth and silk continue to be produced, the fabric processed by the machine, obviously wider than the hand-woven, and more dense and sophisticated, now there are no manual textile personnel in Zhao Rui's territory, and some of the previous textile women workers have been sent to the factory to operate the machine.

Originally, some poor people were still weaving and weaving at home, but now the price of machine cloth is low, and the people calculate the accounts and find that they are much more expensive than the machine, and it takes a lot of time in vain, so Zhao Rui can be regarded as within the territory to solve the problem of textile labor.

In contrast, the efficiency of the machine is very terrible, now the output of cloth is enough for self-sufficiency in the territory, the neighboring Jiaozhi county also came to buy a large number of people, although the two countries are still at war, but it has not affected the trade of cloth at all, for the people who come to send money, Zhao Rui is still full of welcome.

But even with this sales method, the inventory is still increasing, Zhao Rui was surprised, these are just two textile factories, if the steam engine is studied in the future and a larger factory is built, then the inventory will increase exponentially.

At present, because the Champa country buys from time to time, there is still no backlog of goods. At this time, the purchase volume of the city country was already very large, and no matter how much Zhao Rui had left, he would buy it all.

After going on for a while, Zhao Rui became curious and deliberately found Li Fuli to inquire about their sales in China. Li Fulin had nothing to hide from this, so he introduced their sales strategy.

Zhao Rui was shocked when he heard this, it turned out that the price of the cloth they purchased back from Zhancheng was even more expensive than that of the Song Dynasty, so that only the nobles in the country could use it, and the rest were sold to other countries by sea.

Zhao Rui thought about it, this is not surprising, because the historical Champa state accounted for the light of China's ****** and used maritime trade to gather huge wealth. But there is another problem in this, that is, modern brands pay more attention to brand building, so Zhao Rui has to find a way to add some marks to the cloth produced, so that when the city is sold by sea, it is also indirectly opened up for himself.

And it doesn't matter if they sell it now, when the time comes to the steam engine, the output will be large, Zhao Rui will completely build the maritime trade by himself, and when the time comes, he will be able to purchase cloth at a low price that would have cost a lot of money to buy, which is enough to make those foreigners crazy.

But how do you add a "trademark"......

Embroidery is obviously unrealistic, it is too complicated and too labor-intensive, and if it is simple, it will be removed, and then it is not possible to think about adding cloth strips and the like, or it can be easily removed.

For this problem, Zhao Rui specially consulted Huang Xiu, Huang Xiu said that this is simple, you can transform the loom, you can weave patterns with different colors of thread, after calculation, it is not difficult to weave words.

That's right, Zhao Rui slapped his thighs violently, and now all the weaving is solid-color cloth, and he really forgot the method of weaving patterns.

With Huang Xiu's debugging and transformation, Zhao Rui really didn't worry at all, and it didn't take long for all the fabrics produced to be marked with the words "Dabao Weaving Factory", just in the inconspicuous corners of the fabrics.

Don't underestimate these words, if you operate it on the loom, it is definitely not simple, that is, an experienced person like Huang Xiu can complete such a complex design.

After the cloth was produced, Li Fulin once begged Zhao Rui with a bitter face to remove the characters, because they boasted that they were made in their own country at sea, but with Chinese characters on them, didn't it prove that it was the cloth of the Southern Song Dynasty. But Zhao Rui is still relatively firm about trademarks, and the principle is whether you want to love or not!

In ancient times, when there was a great shortage of materials, it was a seller's market, as long as there were goods, there was no need to sell them at all, Zhao Rui also ordered Anbang Prefecture to renovate the newly built cargo ships, and install cannons on them, so that they could be safely transported at sea.

Although the trademark was not removed according to what Li Fulin said, the purchase volume of Zhancheng did not decrease at all, and later Zhao Rui asked Li Fulin again, but the result was unexpected by Zhao Rui.

It turned out that the people who occupied the city and occupied the city sold Zhao Rui's cloth overseas at a high price, so this wide and superior hand-woven cloth became a symbol of nobility, but how could those nobles wear it on their bodies?

Zhao Rui's five big characters played a role, which were originally used to mark on the corners of the fabric, but those overseas nobles wanted to put such words in an obvious position.

When others look at it, yo, the Dabao manufacturing factory produces it, it's amazing, it's a cow, it's a trench!

The more Zhao Rui listened, the happier he laughed, and felt that both the ancients and modern people were the same, they were all obsessed with things like brands, and now that the market is slowly opening, this earliest brand will be imperceptibly rooted in the hearts of the people and become synonymous with noble and high-end.

So when Zhao Rui gets on the steam engine and then does his own shipping trade, the benefits brought by him are really unimaginable, and it will make countless foreigners crazy. Zhao Rui thought, looking forward to this moment coming soon.
