Li Ao checked the big spinning wheel and felt that there was no problem, so he poured the hemp silk on the side into it until everything was fixed. Then, without knowing where the mechanism was triggered, the wheel in the water began to turn, driving the operation of the entire spinning wheel. The hemp silk on the spinning wheel is then rotated on the spindle until it forms a thread. The hemp silk here was consumed very quickly, and after Li Ao checked more than 20 spindles, he began to connect the hemp silk again, and he was very busy.

The second aunt Sun on the side saw that Li Ao was too busy alone, and saw that Li Qing was standing unmoved, so she took the initiative to help.

Let Li Ao concentrate on checking the operation of the entire spinning wheel.

It's not that Li Qing is holding the shelf, but she knows that she is a handicap. If she acts, the big spinning wheel built by Li Ao will have to go back to the furnace directly.

"How?" Li Qing walked up to Li Ao and asked.

"Everything is working and so far, we've succeeded." Li Ao didn't have a smile on his face, but there was undisguised excitement in his tone.

"That's fine." Li Qing smiled.

Liu Erye also came to the river with tools, he deserved to be a veteran of the carpenter industry, and he could see some problems in the details at a glance. If this is solved, the number of spindles on the spinning wheel can be increased by ten.

So the two stopped the spinning wheel and bowed their heads to fill it.

The villagers were stunned, it seemed that this big spinning wheel was a success, this was the first in the world. It's hard to imagine how wonderful the days ahead will be.

Two days later, the transformation of the large spinning wheel was completed. Li Qing asked Li Ao to build a large spinning wheel with an awning on it, and under the research of the two, the number of spindles increased from 24 to 32, and the spinning speed was 32 times that of an ordinary spinning wheel. It's just that because of the limitations of water drive, this thing can only be built at the water's edge, so it can't be popularized on a large scale, but it will also bring great convenience to people.

Shilitang Village is dominated by silk, which is a long fiber, which is fully suitable for such a large spinning wheel.

As for staple fibers like cotton, only a three-spindle pedal spinning wheel can be used.

After seeing such a large spinning wheel that day, the villagers decided to increase the cultivation of silkworms this year, which was always limited by production tools in the past, and the efficiency of spinning in the future has been greatly improved, and the silk is not made into cloth.

But the market is often scarce and expensive, and Li Qing knows very well in his heart that the price of this fabric will not be high in the future. However, the market for fabrics such as silk and satin, which is enjoyed by people of wealth and status, will not shrink.

It's time to look into looms. The loom of Li Qing's family can only weave plain cloth, which does not mean that other families have no jacquard. The jasmine flowers on the clothes on Li Qing's body were embroidered by the Jiang family with stitches and threads.

Her family can only produce plain cloth, which is then taken to the workshop on the dock to be dyed and cut into clothes.

Because the spinning machine is relatively simple in shape and working principle, Li Qing can also draw sketches, and Li Qing is messy about the jacquard loom. Every morning, after Li Qing checked Yun and Guan Shangxuan's schoolwork, he went to Liu Erye's house with pen and ink on his back.

"Now the jacquard machine outside is too old in color, if you can create a complex jacquard and variety, the value will be infinite."

Li Qing carefully analyzed every part of the loom in front of him, where the silk thread penetrated, once the thread was worn, what kind of pattern would become.

"Li Niangzi, this is not very difficult in Ao's opinion, the current jacquard loom in the outside world can bring up all kinds of flowers and animals, so what kind of lady wants?"

Li Ao was slightly puzzled, isn't the current clothes jacquard very complicated?

"I mean that if you can integrate these into one, now the looms used by every household are small, if you change to a large loom, you need multiple people to work together, I want that, and the color that can be put forward is not monotonous, if a piece of cloth has a hundred flowers at the same time......"

How could Li Qing not know the current weaving skills, jacquard is the highest achievement in the weaving industry, and there should be a prosperous development in this era.

She has been to the cloth village in Shangjing, and the colors on the various fabrics in it are almost the same, and there is no mixing. If she could make that kind of large pattern, she would be able to take advantage of the opportunity to advance to the upper layer of clothing.

Dreams are good, reality is cruel.

"Ao understood."

Next, the sketch was formed countless times. Either it can't be turned here or there. After Li Qing tore a few catties of paper, he finally made a decent sketch with the help of Liu Erye and Li Ao.

Now it's time to get started.

Li Qing had no practical ability, so she had to spend an hour or two every day to check the results.

She accompanied Yun and Monk Xuan to review her schoolwork every morning, went to Liu Erye's house in the afternoon, and wrote a script in the evening, and her life was very fulfilling.

"Mother, don't work so hard, go to bed early at night and get up later in the morning."

Yun Ji stroked Li Qing's back and said.

My mother used to sleep lazily, and she would never get up if she didn't call more than a few times. And now I get up before dawn, I start washing clothes after breakfast, I have to sweep the floor after washing clothes, and finally I have to eat.

After finishing her homework in the morning, she ran away without a trace.

"Okay, my mother listens to the clouds, cough cough cough." Li Qing turned his head away and coughed a few times.

At first, she just felt an itchy throat, and a cough would be fine, who would have thought that this cough would be out of control.

"Mother, how are you?" Yun Ji asked anxiously. He stretched out one hand and touched Li Qing's forehead, and another one touched his own.

The body temperature and feel are similar.

"Mother is fine, it's just a little bit of wind chill." Li Qing said with a smile.

Shang Xuan went into the house and Jiang informed Jiang about this, and Jiang immediately put down the needle and thread in his hand and ran out of the room.

"How can it be okay, my face is white and bloodless." Jiang helped Li Qing up and asked her to enter the house. Jiang Shi turned back to Yun and Monk Xuan and said, "You two move in the seats and stools, and endorse them in the house, so as not to catch a cold." ”

Li Qing: "...... "I'm actually really fine, nothing at all, no need to make a fuss."

But Jiang didn't seem to be able to understand Li Qing, Li Qing entered the house, Jiang wrapped her in a quilt, and ordered not to destroy it.

Helplessly, Li Qing only sat cross-legged on the bed like a triangle.

Yun Ji and Guan Shangxuan took the book and went into Li Qing's house to read it silently, as long as Li Qing moved, his eyes were serious as if he was going to eat her, so Li Qing sat on the bed and didn't dare to move.

"Actually, I'm really fine, don't worry." Li Qing said indifferently.

It just so happened that Jiang Shi came in with medicine. "Fortunately, the medicine you picked on weekdays has been dried and is well preserved."
