Chapter 14: Open

Xu Mengshan's face was a little crimson, although this matter had nothing to do with him, but in the end, Lu Jian'an was his aunt's son, and he couldn't say anything if he didn't help, but help? How can he help!

stepped forward and whispered to persuade Lu Jian'an, "Sixth brother, don't be stubborn, where is Master Cao, where can you compare, besides, I have long known that my uncle wants you to take the imperial examination, you have been studying, where can you do such a job as silk reeling, and silk reeling is not something you can get started in a day or two, admit defeat and admit defeat, and it will be harmless to not reel silk in this life." ”

Lu Jian'an smiled lightly and patted Xu Mengshan's shoulder comfortingly, this eldest brother is actually just eighteen when he speaks, and what he said is also for his good! But now Master Cao wants him not to touch silk reeling in his life, how is it possible?

I still have to eat a bowl of rice in this industry.

Their family is about to be unable to open the pot, and if they don't think of a way, the family will only have to drink the northwest wind in a year.

The mother of her own family, Xu, has secretly discussed with Mama Li that she wants to find some pulp washing and embroidery work to come back to do, otherwise I am afraid that the family will be really unsustainable.

He wants to eat, where can he take care of anything else.

Master Cao is going to cut off his job now, where is Lu Jian'an willing to do it.

"Big brother, it's okay, since it's a loss, I want to lose convincingly! Besides, if you don't give it a try, how do you know I'm going to lose? ”

stepped forward to keep up with Master Cao in front.

Xu Mengshan could only keep up.

Anyway, it's also a child in my aunt's family, I can't say it anymore, and I don't have the ability to manage it, I'm really anxious.

Master Cao and Lu Jian'an each chose a silk reeling room, and silk reeling is a technical job! Naturally, not everyone can see it, and even apprentices are only capable of laying hands on the sidelines! If you want to get started, you don't have to work hard for three years, don't think about the master's mercy.

It's an iron law.

I haven't heard of it, three years after the first three years, and another three years of stumbling and fighting, before the apprentice can get through.

It was ten years of hard labor.

Who's not cultivating apprentices like this.

They can't afford to waste that energy.

Therefore, the silk reeling room is closed, and as soon as the window is closed, only the silk reeling master himself knows the situation inside.

Before entering, Master Cao and Lu Jian'an had to choose their own cocoons, one pound for each person, and how much silk they produced naturally depended on their own abilities.

However, the choice of cocoons is naturally also a skill of the silk reeling master, the cocoon is not only a cocoon, but also divided into two kinds of silkworms and silkworms, of course, the difference is that the different foods obtained by feeding silkworms determine the difference in the production of silk in the future.

The processing of raw silk is basically mulberry cocoon and tussah cocoon, which are the two best qualities.

Master Cao proudly took a pound of silkworm cocoons and left, his attitude was so arrogant that people wanted to beat him hard, and the five apprentices looked at Master Cao and disappeared, closed the door of the silk reeling room, and reluctantly withdrew their gaze, if they could, they would rather their eyes could penetrate the door.

Lu Jian'an picked it, not very satisfied, this silkworm cocoon is really not of good quality, and the mulberry leaves fed should not be very good, which affects the quality of the cocoon.

If she had her own mulberry field to grow mulberry and raise silkworms, the result would have been different.

The five apprentices were a little speechless.

Throwing the little eyes of contempt on Lu Jian'an, Lu Jian'an looked at the cocoon in his hand, this attitude is too bad, if he is his own apprentice, he has to train well.

Close the door and don't bother to lock it.

The process of silk reeling is a side dish for Lu Jian'an, I really think too much about what to talk about, the real process is actually in the back, dyeing, printing, etc., that is the main thing! If silk reeling is also a craft cheat, how can the silk industry develop.

However, Lu Jian'an also understands that he can't be too demanding, this is a backward era, the overall development is still less than the Ming Dynasty, the textile and silk industry is actually relatively backward, otherwise silk can not become a country's instrument.

The most important weapon of the country.

The main reason is that Lu Jian'an looked through some history books and finally knew that this continent was divided into many small countries similar to vassal states! Because of geography! Silk is not a product of any country, the yield of mulberry trees is up to two seasons a year, and it is also stipulated that mulberry cocoons are the same, and the harvest of up to two seasons a year limits the output of silk, so the truth that Luoyang paper is expensive appears here.

The emperors and princes and ministers of many countries are the best consumers of silk, so the shortage of supply has become a trend.

Among the many countries, only three countries produce silk, and these three countries are all adjacent to each other, all of which have geographical advantages, and the other countries are naturally only red-eyed.

In this case, the manufacturing technology of natural silk has become a treasure that every country holds, how can it be easily revealed.

I don't know how many countries have sent smart people from their own countries to steal their craft.

It's a pity that they all came back with nothing, but thanks to the perfection of this strict secrecy system, otherwise what capital do these countries have to compete with those big countries, you must know that they don't have enough food crops to eat here, not to mention buying and selling to make money, those businessmen naturally make a fortune on silk, and the country's financial revenue also depends on silk.

Many big families have mastered the real silk manufacturing skills in their hands, and others are not a family at all, and they can't even touch a side.

Even the disciples have been strictly assessed, smart and clever, and they must be honest and trustworthy, otherwise their master-apprentice hierarchy here will not be so strict, and they will be exiled for three thousand li at every turn, or they will be assigned to fill the army, which is to warn those who vainly try to steal the secret recipe of the skill in the name of master and apprentice.

In the Three Kingdoms, this system is specifically for the entire silk industry to emerge from all walks of life, of course, these are really not aware of Lu Jian'an.

So she really didn't lock the doors and windows as strictly as Master Cao.

However, a bunch of people outside who are watching the excitement can still take care of the two silk reeling masters, for them, once they start to reel silk, they are afraid of being accused of stealing people's skills.

The people outside are busy.

They're busy with another job, of course.

What's the matter?

Naturally, it is a gambling market.

This kind of thing is prevalent here, and naturally some people sit in the bank to open the market.

The onlookers naturally did not let go of this rare opportunity, and it was clear that if Master Cao's silk reeling kung fu could not win against a country boy, they all felt that it was impossible.

They are all human spirits, who hasn't seen Lu Jian'an.

I looked at it just now, like a microscope, and I am afraid that a few taels of flesh on Lu Jian'an's body can be measured with his eyes, and his hands don't know that thousands of pairs of eyes have been scanned.

It's comparable to an X-ray machine.
