Chapter 547 Industry Fair (continued)
"Mr. Alex," Donner said to the two of them, "what price would you pay for that Harley-Davidson that my friend was riding just now?"
Alex had actually been curious about the so-called "motorcycle" for a long time, and if Lisa hadn't been there, he would probably have taken the initiative to ask Donner about the price. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"I see your friend driving that magic car, fast or slow, and I'm really surprised, I think...... Even if the price is 10,000 magic crystals, there is no shortage of buyers. I just don't know how much this magic car consumes magic crystals......" he smiled, "However, since you can afford this magic car, you must not care about these consumptions." ”
Alex said this, and immediately translated the words to Lisa.
Donner waited for him to finish translating before he smiled slightly and said, "This car doesn't consume magic crystals." In order to avoid the other party's translation, he answered directly in Vantes, which both Alex and Lisa could understand anyway.
"Don't consume magic crystals?" Lisa was obviously surprised, she hadn't felt the magic fluctuations from the car before, and thought it was because it was too far away, "How could it move?"
She suddenly realized that she might have thought wrong just now, and pointed to the loom in front of her and said, "Could it be that these things are not driven by the magic circle?"
"Of course not," Donner said, spreading his hands, "Do you think I'm crazy with magic crystals to weave cloth?"
"How can this ......" Lisa looked incredulous.
At this time, Danny went and returned, and with him came a large group of young men, all dressed in light blue overalls, who, when they saw Donner, bowed respectfully to him, shouted "Lord Dean," and continued to run to their posts.
Donner nodded in satisfaction and said to Lisa, "Don't worry, the mystery will be revealed soon." ”
With that, he said to Danny, "Let's start with the textile machine." ”
"Yes, my lord," said Danny, skeeching and waving his hand, making a standard gentlemanly salute to the nobles, "Distinguished gentlemen, please come with me. ”
......
On Earth, the Industrial Revolution began with the textile industry, and it's easy to see why.
Although the Wucheng factory has been in operation for nearly seven years, the heavy industrial products produced by ordinary people cannot afford to buy them, and the influence caused by them is hardly out of the three provinces of the Special Economic Zone.
However, once the textile industry developed, the products could easily cover the entire continent, and even be exported to all parts of Middle-earth with the help of the Medici family.
Therefore, as early as after the return of Donner to the Femon Empire, he had already begun to prepare for related matters.
In the southern part of the Femont Empire and the Thorn Empire, there were cotton plantations of considerable size, and the raw materials needed to start the cotton textile industry were not a problem.
Donner's knowledge of the textile industry is very rudimentary, but with the prototypes of folk textile machines collected over the past few years, and the incomparable computing and deduction ability of the brain, he still designed a series of textile machines that can be used.
From cotton opening and rolling to spinning and weaving, the parts of the four machines are produced by the Wucheng factory, and the Lingbei Machinery Factory is responsible for installation and commissioning.
Now, these machines are displayed side by side, and they look imposing.
"Gentlemen, due to the limited conditions of the demonstration site, all the machines are powered by clockwork batteries, and if your factory has the right water or wind conditions, you can also use those energy alternatives," Danny exclaimed in his prepared opening remarks: "However, for the sake of output balance, I recommend that you use a wind or hydraulic winding machine to charge the clockwork battery." ”
In the aristocratic circles of the Femont Empire, the name Clockwork Battery is no longer uncommon, so Mino and the others know very well what Danny is talking about.
Among the people present, only Lisa and Alex were confused, only Alex translated Danny's words sentence by sentence, and then whispered a few words to Lisa, obviously, neither of them could understand what Danny was saying, but with their concentration, it was enough to hide this doubt.
"Gentlemen, this is a cotton opener...... Danny said as he slowly pushed the lever of the opener up.
As he moved, the machine, which was more than two meters wide, gradually emitted a muffled vibration sound.
"The cotton balls that we are demonstrating now have been cleaned and seeded in advance......"
Under Danny's command, several young men poured several large buckets of gray-white cotton balls into the feed port of the cotton opener.
"The opener is powered by a Santan 5 mainspring battery and can work for 17 hours ......," Danny continues, "Look, the batting is fluffy and soft ......."
No one could hear what he said next, because the moment the cotton wool spewed out of the outlet, everyone exclaimed.
Danny couldn't help but look proud, and even his tone became a little excited, "Wait a moment, and when the cotton is finished, we'll move on to the next step." ”
Donner took the time to glance at Lisa, and saw that the woman's face was still full of confidence, but her eyes unconsciously looked around the cotton opener, probably wondering where Donner had hidden the circle.
After a while, the discharge port of the cotton opener was already full of fluffy cotton wool, and even the cotton wool was flying in the air. ”
In the midst of laughter, Danny pulled down the gate of the cotton opener, walked to the second machine, and said loudly, "Guys, this is a cotton roller......"
In fact, Donner didn't know if there was such a machine on the earth, he just borrowed from the backward textile industry of the world and extracted such a step from it.
Danny still explained as he instructed his workers to start the machine after the large balls of cotton wool had been thrown into the rolling machine.
After a short time, the cotton wool is swallowed by the machine, and after several processes such as mixing and rolling, it becomes a thin layer of cotton fiber, which is slowly rolled up by the roller at the exit of the machine - from which the name of the cotton rolling machine comes from.
Immediately afterwards, the workers moved the rollers wrapped with the cotton fibers to the next machine, the spindle spinning machine, and then, in front of everyone, the cotton fibers that had just been made were pulled out of countless filaments and then twisted into more than 20 yarns.
The workers then load the rolls of these yarns onto the next machine, the shuttle loom.
"Gentlemen, it's a matter of time, the warp threads are all spun in advance, and the yarn we have just spun is only used as the weft thread......"
I saw a few specially trained workers, skillfully guiding the yarn to the shuttle, and Danny confirmed that it was correct before starting the loom.
The annoying vibration sounded, the warp threads on the loom staggered and vibrate, the shuttle shuttled back and forth, slowly interweaving the fine white cotton cloth, and seeing that the spinning thread on the roller was about to come to an end, Danny pulled down the gate and the loom slowly stopped.
By this time, the onlookers were dumbfounded, and Danny and the workers looked as proud as guardian knights receiving their decorations.
Alex couldn't help but walk up to the loom and gently caress the satin-smooth cotton, unable to believe his eyes.
"Come on," Lisa said, standing beside Donna, "where the hell is the circle hiding?" (To be continued.) )
