……

"Hmm!" Shopkeeper Tu glared at Liu Zhibang angrily.

The Mountain Nu Patriarch turned his head to look at Liu Zhibang, there were many questions in his eyes, Aya walked to the side of the Mountain Nu Old Patriarch and whispered a few words in his ear, the Mountain Nu Old Patriarch nodded to Liu Zhibang and said, "Foreigner, this is the deal between our Fire Dance Clan and the Supreme Chamber of Commerce, you don't have to worry about it!" ”

Shopkeeper Tu stared at Liu Zhibang with ill intentions and said: "Young man, you can't talk nonsense, you must know that a foot of cloth needs to be woven for half a month, and this is the secret of the weaver, and it is not too much to sell ten silver coins for a foot......"

Liu Zhibang said angrily: "There will be no mistake, a foot of cloth will be woven for half a month, and I won't have to weave it in a day!" ”

As soon as Liu Zhibang finished speaking, there was a burst of boos.

"Braggart ......"

"I don't know the sky and the earth is thick......"

Seeing that everyone doubted themselves, Liu Zhibang said again: "It's easy to weave such a rough linen, if you don't believe it, just give me a few days, and I'll weave it for you!" ”

"It's true, he's a foreigner, maybe he's a weaver, if he can weave linen, he should save a lot of money......"

There were many expectant voices in the crowd, and when he heard this, the shopkeeper Tu said a little anxiously: "Hey, Patriarch of Mountain Fury, don't listen to this kid's nonsense, this cloth was ordered by you, you can't say you want it or not!" ”

The old patriarch of Mountain Nu thought for a while, and said to Liu Zhibang with some doubts: "Young man, can you really weave linen?" ”

Liu Zhibang said confidently: "As long as you give me the materials, let alone linen, I can weave even silk, and I will provide it to the people in the village for free!" ”

"What is silk? But if only linen could be worn for free! There was another discussion in the crowd, and the eyes that looked at Liu Zhibang began to change.

Hearing Liu Zhibang say this, the old patriarch of Shanfu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you a few days, Tu Shopkeeper, if he can't weave the cloth, it's too late to buy it for you next time......"

Hearing the old patriarch of Shanfu say this, the shopkeeper Tu knew that he couldn't make a deal, so he took people away angrily. As soon as the shopkeeper Tu left, Shan Ya walked up to Liu Zhibang and asked, "Liu ...... Abang, what material do you say you want to weave linen, can you really weave linen? ”

Liu Zhibang looked at the expectant eyes in the four places, smiled proudly, and said: "Then it is needless to say, I have learned to weave before......" said lightly, but Liu Zhibang was muttering in his heart: How to weave the weaving, it seems to be a loom, there is no ready-made, then there is only one to build, and you have to find an empty space to check the information on the "Noah's Ark System", if you can't build a loom, then this face will be lost......

Liu Zhibang fooled Aya that she hadn't woven cloth for a long time, and she needed to find a quiet place where no one was going to think about how to weave, Aya found a room, and as soon as she entered this room, a musty smell rushed into her nose, choking Liu Zhibang sneezed a few times, the room was very dim, and only a small window hung high near the top of the wall. Liu Zhibang rolled up the sleeve of his left arm and shook it on his left wrist with his right palm, and a holographic screen with a size of one square meter immediately appeared in the dim small room, and Liu Zhibang tapped a few times on it.

"Now I don't know where the spaceship has fallen, and I can't go back for the time being, so it seems that I can only plan slowly. This 'Noah's Ark System' got it from that spy, it should be a good thing, I was in a hurry to see it last time, to see if there is any basic scientific and technological information in it besides weapons...... Hey, it's really, it's amazing, it's really everything, check the loom, the automatic loom is skipped, that thing is too complicated, there is nothing in this village, only wood handlooms can be made......"

Liu Zhibang carefully "recalled" in the house, but there was a circle of people outside the house, and one of the honest-looking young men walked up to Aya and said, "Sister Aya, you said that this Liu Zhibang looks weird, what is the origin, why does the patriarch believe him?" ”

Aya looked at this honest young man and said, "Amu, I don't know why Daddy believes him, but what if he lets him try, if he can really weave cloth, won't he also save us a lot of money?" ”

While Aya and Amu were talking, the door of the hut opened, Liu Zhibang walked out, looked at the villagers around the door, Liu Zhibang said to Aya: "Ah...... Aya, is there a carpenter in the village, can you help me find a few carpenters? I want them to help me make a loom! ”

Aya immediately called a few carpenters in the village, and those carpenters introduced themselves, Liu Zhibang looked at a few carpenters, and said, "My name is Liu Zhibang, thank you for helping me make a loom, and now I want you to help me make a few things, which ...... Uncle Akun, you make a bracket like this out of wood...... Uncle Ah Yan, you make this reel wheel, and this weft beating part, Uncle Ah Lang, you make this shuttle, oh yes, you can help me make a foot pedal, a small wooden bench...... Oh, don't forget, Uncle Ayu, you help me make a spinning wheel, just do it like this, and it can be rotated......"

The carpenters each found some lumber and immediately began to build a handloom and worked all day until the next day he could barely put together a handloom.

Looking at the assembled loom, Liu Zhibang was motionless, and Aya asked curiously, "A...... Master Abang, this is the loom? Then why don't you start weaving? ”

Hearing Aya add the honorific title of master, Liu Zhibang silently enjoyed it in his heart, and said with a smile: "Do you have cotton here?" ”

Aya replied with beautiful eyes: "What is cotton, do you use cotton for weaving?" ”

Liu Zhibang said a little depressedly: "There is no cotton, I can only weave linen, oh, Aya, what materials are used to weave ropes in the village?" ”

Aya thought for a while and replied, "We can use grass or wisteria bark to weave rope, because it is very tough, can we also use wisteria bark to weave linen?" ”

Liu Zhibang asked Aya to bring a hemp rope, and seeing that this hemp rope was woven with the outer skin fibers of relatively tough hemp vine plants, he nodded with satisfaction and said: "This is okay, although it is a little rougher, but it is no problem to make a sample for the time being......

Hearing Liu Zhibang say yes, Aya excitedly asked the people in the village to bring all the hemp ropes at home and pile them up, Liu Zhibang laughed and said, "Do you want me to weave them all into linen?" ”

Liu Zhibang commanded the villagers to begin to disassemble the hemp rope, and then take the fiber that is more uniform and fine, and spin it into a thread ball one by one with a spinning wheel. The villagers gathered in front of Liu Zhibang's loom in three layers inside and three outside, trying to make their eyes as big as possible, and this strange-looking loom and the strange-looking Liu Zhibang also made them extremely curious.

Liu Zhibang operated the loom clumsily with his hands and feet, tired and sweaty, and his eyes were full of stars, but countless villagers around him were looking at him, and Liu Zhibang had to put away his lazy thoughts.

"It is said that the sun and the moon are like a shuttle, why is this shuttle of mine so slow, damn, blame me for being cheap, what can I do, do they have clothes to wear or not, it doesn't matter to me......"

When Liu Zhibang was wailing in his heart, Aya handed a bowl of water to him and said, "Master Abang, don't worry, drink saliva first, look at your sweaty ......"

Liu Zhibang hurriedly took the water and drank it slowly, thinking to himself: This goddess is good, she looks like a fairy, and her figure is so angry, but it's a pity, I already have Lu Wei, what if ...... No, I can't be Chen Simei's classmate......

With Liu Zhibang's intermittent and diligent efforts, he finally weaved a piece of linen cloth one foot wide.

"Wow, it's really Sakbu!"

The crowd erupted in huge cheers, and Liu Zhibang modestly smiled at the cheering crowd, feeling proud in his heart.

"You can weave a foot of linen cloth in two days, you are so great!"

Liu Zhibang closed his mouth and smiled reservedly, thinking to himself, if they knew that each loom in the Federation could weave dozens of meters of cloth in one minute, it wouldn't scare them to death, my snail speed is actually fast, hehe, but it's also quite cost-effective, it's worth ten silver coins, five silver coins a day, I don't know how much the workers here pay a day......

"Master Abang, this is the Zhu Guo I just picked, you can taste it......"

"Master Abang, this is my freshly grilled triangular venison, it's still hot, you have been working so hard, you must eat a little ......"

Liu Zhibang nodded frequently, and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, you have it, you have it, everyone has linen clothes to wear......"

Liu Zhibang sat on the stool with a golden knife, enjoying the massage of the goddess Aya, and the beauty in his heart was called a beauty, and the simple villagers handed over food and drink from time to time, and Liu Zhibang was overwhelmed.

Aya rubbed Liu Zhibang's shoulder and said, "Master Abang, you are really capable, if you can teach the villagers this weaving technique, so that everyone can weave by themselves, how good it would be!" ”

When Liu Zhibang heard this, he patted his thigh and said: "Yes, why didn't I think of it, if I weave alone, then it will take the year of the monkey to make everyone in the village wear linen clothes, Aya, you are not only beautiful, but also so smart, just do it!" ”

When Aya heard Liu Zhibang praise her beauty, her pretty face flushed, she lowered her head and laughed softly, and when she looked up again, Liu Zhibang had already rushed out to find those carpenters.

Liu Zhibang led the carpenters into the jungle, picking the side of the mountain that does not see the sun all the year round, and looking for straight miscellaneous trees, which do not see light all year round and grow extremely slowly, but they also grow extremely tough, which is the best material for making looms. It took four or five days to get together the wood for making the loom, and Liu Zhibang made many detailed corrections on the basis of the first loom, connecting the action of pressing the cloth with two wooden sticks to the cloth rolling frame, so that every time I weave a little, the cloth rolling mechanism will shrink a little accordingly, Liu Zhibang has done lubrication treatment at all the joints that need to be moved, thinking that there is no chemical lubricating oil, Liu Zhibang had to use the prey to boil oil, and the boiled animal oil was cooled and used as lubricating oil. As a result, the working noise of the loom is greatly reduced, and the weaving operation is smoother. Liu Zhibang also summarized the problems of thread breakage during spinning and weaving, and paid more attention to the selection of twine, the new purple sesame vine picked from the mountain, all finely crushed the inner stem, and then dried after the outer skin and inner stem were washed and peeled, and the remaining fiber was more dense and uniform, which also greatly improved the speed and quality of spinning.

It took nearly ten days to make ten looms and spinning wheels, Liu Zhibang taught the villagers how to operate them, and Aya also cooperated with more villagers to go to the mountains to find wisteria, because the ropes in the village were soon insufficient.

"Master Abang, I also knitted a piece of cloth today!"

Looking at Aya's joyful eyes, Liu Zhibang was blushing, and said in his heart: Are you all born Weaver Girl? I worked hard for two days to weave a foot of cloth, and you can weave a foot of cloth in a day, and you can't let people live......

Aya stopped what she was doing and called a girl to take her place and continue weaving, Aya smiled and walked to Liu Zhibang's side and said: "Master Abang, I really didn't expect that there are only a few days, and we can't finish the cloth we weave, I have an idea, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

When Liu Zhibang heard this, he asked, "Miss Aya, what do you think?" ”

Aya thought for a while and said, "I think we can weave so much linen out and can't wear it ourselves, can we take it out and sell it?" ”

Liu Zhibang was stunned for a moment, and replied: "This linen cloth is woven by everyone, you are the daughter of the patriarch, you can do whatever you want, you don't need to ask my opinion!" ”

Aya smiled and said: "Although the linen cloth is woven by everyone together, it is you who taught us to make looms and weavers, and our Fire Dance people know how to repay their kindness, and they can't treat you badly, you can mention whatever reward you want!" ”

Liu Zhibang thought to himself when he heard this: Now the spaceship can't be found, and waiting for someone from the Federation to pick me up is not very reliable. You have to have two hands to prepare, or build a space base by yourself, I have the "Noah's Ark System" in hand, the technology is fine, but the resources are a problem, no money is feasible......

Thinking of this, Liu Zhibang nodded and replied: "Miss Aya, you are polite, I have been here in exile, and thanks to the Fire Dance Clan, I have to thank you in the end." In this way, although I have produced technology, but the materials, production, and sales all depend on you, I agree with your idea, take out the extra linen and sell it, I only need a quarter of the profit......"
