Chapter 1064: Opening a Workshop
In the past few days, Wang Tianxiang and Wang Tianlai have almost dried their saliva, and finally conveyed the meaning of the county government, and everyone believed that this wool collection was true, and they went back to shear their wool and took it to the head of the same village to sell.
It's really one hand to pay and one hand to deliver, what kind of grade is charged at what price, and nothing is missing from them.
Everyone took the money in their hands, and their hearts were very steady, but even with the heavy silver, it still felt unreal.
It's great this year, if they can harvest wool at such a high price every year, then they won't be able to develop? It would be nice to go home and raise more sheep.
But I also thought, there is so much grain in the field, although the sheep eat grass most of the time, but they still have to feed some grain, the grain is too little, how can they afford to raise so many sheep? It takes a lot of effort to herd sheep, but you still have to do what you can.
Siqi didn't worry about collecting wool these days, and she didn't go to the countryside, so it was useless to be anxious at home.
She and Zhou Hao Zhou Xing pondered how to knit sweaters together, the wool that she got back before had all been spun into wool, Siqi took Zhou Hao Zhou Xing, and the two mothers-in-law who helped at home to ponder together, they are so old, and they have seen a lot of the world, this manual work must be better than her, Zhou Hao Zhou Xing still has to learn from them.
Siqi taught them how to knit sweaters, in fact, it is very simple, as long as they learn where the thread comes from and where it goes, they can learn it quickly.
She asked Yongqing to get a lot of wooden sticks, according to her requirements, the two ends were sharpened, polished very smooth, Yongqing also painted, Siqi was very satisfied.
This woolen skewer is very good to use, but it is better to be a little thinner, if there is also the kind of iron skewer in the previous life at this time, how good it would be, this has to be done slowly, at this time, the iron process does not know whether to keep up, wait for her to figure out this sweater first, and then think about making a better skewer.
On her own, this sweater would definitely not be made, and she would only say that the manual work was really not good, and she taught them a few stitches and some simple patterns.
The two mothers-in-law in the family pondered for two days, and Zhou Hao and Zhou Xing also pondered all the time, and within a few days, they came up with several patterns at the same time.
Si Qidu was shocked, this was too fast, in fact, these patterns were extended on the ones she taught, but it was really good to weave them out.
Zhou Xing's manual work is very powerful, she learned it from her mother when she was at home, and she has a bright brain, and she knows what kind of pattern this thread will be when she passes through it after a little thought, so she thinks about it quickly.
With their help, the first sweater came out in less than five days, according to Siqi's instructions, the sleeves on both sides were woven separately, the middle body was also knitted, and finally connected together to become a garment.
This dress is made according to Siqi's size, after it is done, Siqi immediately wears it on his body, warm, it is really good, but at this time, the wool Taiyuan is ecological, some flesh is tied, and you must wear clothes with collars inside. Nuancai Literature Network
The collar of the sweater outside should not be too high, otherwise it will make the neck a little uncomfortable.
She had thought about this before, so the dress was very suitable and very warm.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the weather became very fast, and it was already very cold, and they were all shrunk on the kang at home, and if they were working on the ground, it would not be long before their feet were cold.
Siqi took off the jacket inside, put on the sweater, and put on the clothes outside, and felt even warmer than just now.
She took off her clothes and wore them again, the two mothers-in-law who worked at home were not fat, and their bodies were actually not much different from Siqi, and they could all be dressed.
Mrs. Liu said, "This thing is also too good, how did Madam come up with it?" We have been raising sheep and collecting wool here for many years, and it has been handed down from our ancestors, but no one has ever done this, we all wash and dry this wool, and use it to continue the quilt to make clothes, and never thought that it could be of such a great use, this clothing is so warm, and light, and it is easy to wash, how much silver do you have to sell? ”
Siqi smiled and said, "I haven't thought about this yet, but you can see it, this wool will be of great use, you sold it so directly before, but it's really a loss, don't worry, with me, I will definitely make you more money from this." ”
The two mothers-in-law were very happy when they heard this, and immediately went down to the kang to worship Siqi, and Siqi hurriedly let them get up.
"I'm at home, what to do so politely, this time I knitted the sweater so smoothly, thanks to your help, I will also think of ideas, let me do it, I can't do it."
Zhou Xing said, "Girl, this dress is really good, let's take back all the wool, spin it all, make it into a sweater and sell it, the price can be doubled several times, but in this way, how much labor is needed?" Relying on a few of us, the wool harvested in a year has to be woven for several years, and it will definitely not work. ”
Siqi said, "Of course, you can't do it yourself, just a few rolls of thread, and I've been doing it for so long, I plan to find a place in the town to open a workshop." ”
"Didn't the two aunts say? When the weather is cold, the common people in the countryside have nothing to do, the men go to the mountains to hunt and chop wood, and the women are at home to do housework, and there is nothing important to do. ”
The two mothers-in-law who helped at home immediately nodded, "Okay, there's nothing better than this, Madame's brain is spinning fast, this method wants us to think, we can't figure it out for a long time, if this news is known to everyone, I will definitely give a thumbs up to praise the Lord and Mrs." ”
Just do it, although there is a practice in every town, the amount of work is still quite large, but this place is poor, which leads to the houses in the town are very cheap, and she brought all the silver given by the Wu family when she got married, so she thought it could come in handy.
The Gu family brought some more silver, plus the three thousand taels given by Second Master Jiang before, which was enough for her to do many things.
After discussing with Tiankuo, Tiankuo completely believed in her, this was his precious daughter-in-law, even if he smashed all the silver into it and didn't take it back in the end, he wouldn't blame her.
