Chapter 460: Jute and the Loom

A special saber is the biggest gain of this exploration.

With this unparalleled sharp knife, it will be of great use in daily life and in battle.

And the ownership of this saber, of course, is due to Fang Jinyan, and it was completely discovered by him with his pervert-level vision, otherwise they would have to pass by.

Zhou Rong and the others have admired this to the point of speechlessness, if this person is not cheating, then he is simply a god.

To be honest, the special forces they imagined were not so powerful at all. Of course, they haven't really seen the world's top special forces, so they are not very sure, it may be that there are such bullish special forces in the world

It's just that the special forces should be very physically strong, but Fang Jinyan's physique looks like an ordinary boy, and his body still seems to be extremely poor, and he is more likely to get tired than ordinary people

Back at the camp where the treehouse was located, they held a meeting that night to discuss future safety.

Fang Jinyan spoke first: "Now we have determined that on Star Island, in addition to our original group, there are other people, of course, we are not sure whether they are all victims like us, but we can be sure that they are very strong, and they may not be very friendly to us."

He paused and said, "So from now on, we must be vigilant, we must not expose ourselves lightly, and then we must also get more weapons and resources to strengthen ourselves."

"I'm afraid it's hard right now. Others won't give it to us, and we can't produce it ourselves, so how can we get it? Even you. It's impossible to find a saber very often," Zhou Rong said.

"That's not necessarily, we just need to find the treasure there, maybe we can find a lot of guns." Zhang Hongbing said.

The things that Fang Jinyan said before that were hidden have been turned into treasures by him.

"How is it possible, if there were guns in there, they wouldn't have taken them out against the thugs?" Zhou Rong was already speechless about his IQ.

"That's what I said," Zhang Hongbing was embarrassed and immediately changed the topic. "Do you think those thugs have guns? Since they have sabers, it shouldn't be too strange to have guns, right?"

"Probably not, the scene that day. We didn't see a single bullet, and none of the dead had gunshot wounds. Zhou Rong reasoned.

"Not necessarily, maybe they just didn't need to shoot at the time. You have to understand. In many cases, just taking out a gun is already a great deterrent, you don't need to shoot at all, and the other party can only obediently obey orders, if they don't have guns, I think there are so many dead people, it is impossible to be captured and slaughtered like that, so I think it is very likely that they have guns. Fang Jinyan hadn't spoken yet. Zheng Chen questioned.

"You think with their violent character, if there were guns. Will they not fire a single shot? Zhou Rong retorted.

"Yes, if they don't have a lot of bullets, they will never shoot lightly, and maybe only a very small number of people have guns and bullets." Zheng Chen said.

"Well, whether they have guns or not, we have to be very vigilant and never let them find us. At the same time, we must not be discovered by others, and in short, our activities must be more hidden in the future. Fang Jinyan concluded.

"I agree."

"I don't have a problem either."

After the tragic lessons of those who died, those who were still a little optimistic completely believed Fang Jinyan.

"Shall we inform 'them' so that they can be prepared for this?" Zhou Rong remembered again.

She was mainly worried about her cousin Zhou Ping, although the relationship between the two was not particularly close, but it was also a family relationship, and of course she was worried that she would be hanged like that if she ran into those thugs

"I wouldn't mind talking to them if I ran into them, but now we're far apart, and they've probably moved somewhere else, so forget it." Fang Jinyan said very tactfully.

"If you're willing to let me know, no one will stop you." Zhang Hongbing said with a wicked smile.

"I don't even know the road," Zhou Rong said with a blank look.

She wasn't lying, she really didn't know the road, she wasn't a road idiot, but there wasn't even a bus stop sign on this desert island, and no one else remembered the road that far except for people like Fang Jinyan.

After everyone reached an agreement, they returned to their previous state.

In order to strengthen their own security, they began to conduct a planned reconnaissance of the surrounding area, so that they could detect possible threats, such as the group of thugs, and if they were found in the area, then they could prepare in advance.

If you really can't fight it, then there is another option, and that is to leave, the farther away from them, the better

Of course, while scouting, they will also search for new products to enrich their food and livelihood. During this period of time, they successively discovered jute, peanuts, avocados and other crops

Peanuts naturally needless to say, avocado is avocado, is an extremely nutritious fruit, the taste is quite good, the fruit kernel contains fatty oil, that is, similar to animal oil, so it is called avocado, you can eat, but since there are peanuts, it will definitely not be used to squeeze oil.

To be honest, they eat very little oil now, because they have few people, and oil extraction is a body job, so they try to eat as little oil as possible, anyway, there is a way to say that they can often hunt animals, and if they can often eat meat, it doesn't matter if they don't eat vegetable oil.

Of course, the most important discovery is jute.

Jute is the world's second only to cotton fiber crop, if only consider the tropics, then it is the first fiber crop, jute is obviously rough, but the water absorption is as good as cotton, it is a very suitable fiber for weaving into cloth, and of course it can also be woven into very strong sacks and ropes

Just want to weave cloth, it is not so simple things, first of all, the fiber must be spun into hemp yarn, and then woven into cloth with hemp yarn, these two processes need to be completed with the help of two kinds of machinery, and it is impossible to use people to complete it manually

These two types of machinery are naturally spinning machines and looms, although the history of these two machines can be traced back to primitive societies, and the materials used to make zuò are also very simple, wood and rope are sufficient.

But ordinary people from modern society can't make it at all, because they have never seen it.

However, Fang Jinyan can be created, because he is not an ordinary person

In the last days of his previous life, because of the fall of modern factories, in some bases, this primitive handicraft industry was revitalized, so he had seen a lot of textile machinery, and he had a super brain, as long as he glanced at it, all the structures were clear to him, and he would never forget it.

So he relied entirely on a saber and made a jute spinning machine and a jute loom out of several materials that could be found in the jungle.

Operate these two kinds of machinery, it is not difficult for him at all, he has seen those workers operate, he memorized it once, and then he can do it more standard and more perfect than them, and the control of power and amplitude by the super brain is also unparalleled

Of course, he didn't have to do this kind of work, so he demonstrated it to a few women a few times and asked them to do it.

They were so interested in this work that they rushed to learn, not because they loved to work, but because they were so short of fabric, and most of them were embarrassed by the clothes they wore when they were in distress.

Now that they have the opportunity to weave fabric and make new clothes for themselves, they can also use it for other purposes, and they can't wait!

When you think about it, it must be very rewarding to be able to collect jute fibers, spin and weave cloth, and then make clothes with simple tools. (To be continued......)
