Chapter 64: Enough

Dong Yong watched Lu Yangge classify several batches of fabrics in the library, and distribute their dyeing according to color and fabric.

He didn't really understand what Lu Yangge said about tie-dyeing and dyeing, but because he didn't understand what Lu Yangge said, it also made him more and more convinced that he might really find the right person this time.

At least, this little brother who is half a head shorter than him didn't talk nonsense, and there was still something in his words.

"What do you mean, can these fabrics be redyed?"

"In this way, you find some discarded cloth and we'll try it first, and if it does, you can talk to your father and your eldest brother."

Lu Yangge didn't dare to guarantee that it would be successful, or that the color she dyed would be satisfactory to the Dong family's father and son.

She's just a child, and if she really wants to make big promises, it's impossible.

Because he promised Dong Yong, he taught him to dye.

All she could say was, try as much as you can

Her current method can only solve the siege for a while, and it will definitely not last long.

As for the future, if Dong Yong wants to learn dyeing, he still has to find a way to enter the big dyeing workshop.

It is said that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

The two-and-a-half-year-old child made this bold decision, and Dong Yong was finally achieved.

Let the Dong family dyeing workshop become the largest and most famous dyeing workshop in the new dynasty and the big merchant country.

This is a later story, the current Lu Yangge even put down the news of when he would come back to Fushun, but concentrated on running in the mountains with Dong Yong, looking for something that could be dyed.

It's May, and there are still plenty of fresh flowers, so it's not easy to find ripe berries.

Fortunately, Dong Yong's request is very simple, that is, to dye some white cloth so that it can be sold. There are also some unevenly dyed fabrics, and find a way to change the color.

Changing the color is actually very simple, you can choose to change the light color to the dark color, and the dark color to black.

However, the most difficult thing is to mix the materials you find, and the key is to choose the best color.

The white cloth is dyed by dip dyeing, and the unevenly dyed cloth is dyed by boiling......

There was no cauldron to cook cloth, so he went to Ding's house to borrow a cauldron from his house to kill pigs and boil water.

If there is no vat, use wooden barrels.

More than a dozen wooden barrels, large and small, are lined up, and they look quite presentable.

The red color of the dyeing mill is made of hematite powder, or better yet, cinnabar, but they do not have it, so they can only rely on fruits or flowers or even vegetables from the wild.

Fix the color with rice husks, salt and alkali......

Ripe mulberries, wild berries, purple grapes...... Lu Yangge said something in his mouth, separating the wild fruits he found, thinking in his mind that it seemed that these three kinds of fruits and purple iris and dogwood bark could be made into purple-blue dye.

Without red leaf cabbage, red amaranth should be fine.

Anyway, it's just dyeing, and I don't say what color I want to fix it.

The two children, like a family, collected all kinds of flowers and fruits they could collect together and began their own great dyeing process.

Except for Lu Xiaoqing, who was practicing with Qiu's family, almost the whole Lu family was dispatched, Lu Quan not only collected eels and sold eels under the eel cage every day, but also came back to help the two children carry water and chop firewood......

Lu Xiaoli and Lu Xiaoyu are not idle, one helps to light the fire to watch the time, and the other helps to soak and dry.

On both sides of the Lu family's boat, several hemp ropes were pulled up and dyed rag heads were hung one by one.

Blowing in a part, various colors are waving in the wind, like small buntings.

The original old and bleak wild pier is also rendered beautiful.

Lu Yangge and Dong Yong were busy for a few days, and used up most of the half of the packets of rags that Dong Yong stole from home, and finally fixed four colors.

Deep red, sea blue, turmeric, and a light pink dyed with white cotton.

These four colors may be a little different in the shade of color in the next dyeing due to the amount of weight. Because of the trial and trial of the two people, Dan has already determined the things and steps that can be used, as long as Dong Yong follows their previous methods and materials, it is certain that the color will not be too different.

Looking at the fragments of various shades spread out in front of him, Lu Yangge sighed slightly: "There are still too few things and too little experience, so I can only dye these four colors first." ”

Lu Yangge has seen all kinds of colors in the new era, and for her, these four colors are too monotonous.

If she is given some time, or if she can go to the dyeing workshop and learn some basics from those masters, it can be said that she can match a few more colors.

Including the printing and dyeing, tie-dyeing and many other colors that she knew before.

"Enough...... That's enough! ”

Dong Yong trembled his hands and hugged the dyeing recipe written by Lu Yangge tightly in his arms, "These four colors are enough." ”

For Dong Yong in the past few days, it is no less than creating a miracle with his hands.

These four colors were made by him and the Lu family's Xiaosi. The color is pure, the dyeing is uniform, and it does not fade or change color. Others don't understand, but he knows that these are the rarest of the dyeing.

He just wanted to clear the backlog of inventory in the warehouse, and these four colors were already very good colors in the countryside.

In the countryside nowadays, both men and women, wear either sackcloth or ugly and dirt-resistant yellow.

And these four bright colors are only found on the expensive silk satin.

It was a great deal that he could make these four colors out of the unevenly dyed coarse cloth in the storeroom.

At this moment, looking at the colors he dyed with his own hands, Dong Yong suddenly had an irrepressible thought in his heart.

He wants to go to Huaicheng and go to the dyeing workshop to learn more and better dyeing techniques.

Even if he can't be an apprentice, even if he is a handyman, he has to go.

"Thank you."

Dong Yong respectfully saluted Lu Yangge, if his family can be reinvigorated because of this dyeing, the Lu family's junior four will be indispensable.

"These three taels of silver are made up by me and my mother." Dong Yong's face turned red, "I know that these are actually too little, when my father and my eldest brother come back, I will ......"

"No."

Lu Yangge pushed back more than two taels of silver ingots, and picked up the dozens of copper plates scattered on the table, "These are enough." ”

Dong Yong concluded: "But." ”

Lu Yangge smiled and wrapped the broken silver and put it into Dong Yong's arms: "Okay, go back quickly, your mother is still waiting for you." ”

Dong Yong took the dyeing recipe he had made with Lu Xiaosi in the past few days, and went back to discuss with his father and brother.

As for the Dong family's use of these recipes, how to use them, that is the Dong family's business, and it has nothing to do with Lu Yangge.

Lu Yangge also confiscated the money bag that Dong Yong gave her, although it was the greatest sincerity that Dong Yong could come up with, she also refused.

She didn't help Dong Yong for profit, just like that day when she saw Dong Yong being beaten by Luo Guozi, all she could do was throw a piece of mud with her hand.

As for whether it can help Dong Yong, or the Dong family, it can only depend on the will of God.

Not long after, Dongjia Cloth Store sold a batch of fabrics at a low price.

In order to express their gratitude, the Dong family sent a piece of cloth to the Lu family and one hundred taels of silver.

and told Lu Yangge that because of these four color recipes, Dong Yong was going to the Shenjia Dyeing Workshop in Nanyang County as an apprentice.

This one hundred taels is also the Shen family's money to buy these four squares.

Deep red sea blue turmeric light powder, these four colors have also become the most common clothing color in Jiangjiaba for a long time.
