Chapter 141: Finding Help
With the current process, ten catties of silk can be reeled out of one catty of silk, a piece of cloth is four zhang long, and the approximate weight is two catties, so Sun Shun quickly moved twenty catties of untreated silk, which is the weight of a piece of cloth.
And, of course, a big bag of cotton.
In the past, the Sun family only had the craft of brocade weaving, and they didn't know how to reel silk, and they didn't have that set of tools, so they had to buy silk thread from the clan to weave directly.
Weaving is still the kind of very sparse brocade and then handed over to the clan, earning the processing fee in the middle, of course, if the amount is large, the profit is still very considerable.
It's just that the technology has not improved later, and the business was robbed by Mrs. Qian, and the Sun family has been in dire condition ever since.
But what Jiang Changan is doing now is a brocade dragon, reeling silk by himself, spinning thread, and finally brocade.
There are several processes, and accordingly a good variety of machines are required.
Jiang Changan and the others had just finished eating, and Sun Shun came over with something, but he looked embarrassed that he wanted to speak and stopped, and even Jiang Changan, who had started to assemble the machine, found out.
"What's wrong? You can keep an account of what you take out, and you will be reimbursed together when the time comes.
Today, we will put together the capital that the three of us want to pay and hand it over to Uncle Sun for safekeeping, because you need more expenses to do production. ”
Sun Shun shook his head, "It's not. Dad, the family received a message from the patriarch that if we insist on cooperating with outsiders, we will cancel our family's textile order. ”
Although the daily orders given by the clan are not much, they are also the main income of their family, because of the machine, the quality of the linen and cotton cloth they weave is very average, and there is no dyeing technology, so the money they make is really small.
If the clan breaks off the business with their family, if Jiang Changan also fails here, the Sun family will face a complete defeat, and it will be difficult to make a living, but they are people who can't even farm.
Sun Ping had a calm face, his heart was cold and sarcastic, the clan has always suppressed the clansmen who have no use value, how could he have helped, "It's broken, it's broken, a few taels of silver a month still depends on people's faces, and it's time to end."
Chang'an, don't be under pressure, it's my willingness to work with you, even if we fail and lose our capital, I don't blame you. ”
At most, they feel sorry for the capital, but they must have saved it for a long time, but how can there be no risk in doing business?
Jiang Changan laughed, "It seems that if I don't take out my hole cards, you won't be at ease, look, I'll show you a hand, what is a craftsman." ”
Jiang Changan said and walked towards the pile of accessories that were even higher than her.
She picked up an accessory and assembled it, she was very familiar with the accessories, and if she couldn't assemble it, she put it aside, and then sorted it while assembling it, and was soon surrounded by parts.
The little girl, with two small buns, is very busy in a bun of accessories and machinery, if you don't know, you still think she has played at home.
Everyone is also helping on the side, if you don't understand, you will ask Jiang Changan, she is assembling while solving puzzles, originally everyone thought that they would have to wait for a long time, but only an hour later, dozens of machines were assembled.
It was placed in front of them steadily, and looked at them quietly, among which there were large looms, small silk reeling machines, and machines for spinning cotton money.
It's just, "Chang'an, why is this silk reeling machine and cotton spinning machine porous and multi-iron pestle?" Is it possible to spin multiple strands at the same time?
The merchants we buy are all spinning threads, so the price is also high. ”
Every time Sun Ping used to buy goods, those merchants would complain that they could only spin one thread at a time, how difficult it was.
So he was a little uncertain when he saw Jiang Changan's machine.
"That's right, three or four strands at the same time, it takes practice, and you can spin it when you get used to it.
Come, let's reel the silk first, and bring the boiled silk. Jiang Changan beckoned to Sun Shun.
A silk reeling machine has ten holes, and ten spool windmills, which are hand-cranked, and ten pots of silk soaked in water should be placed under the opposite holes.
Everyone saw Jiang Changan holding a small broom in the silk basin and wandering around, and when the small broom was lifted, a lot of silk threads were glued to Tongjin.
The silk thread is placed on the spool through the hole, and then the silk attached to the cocoon is pulled out with a shake.
Sun Ping's father and son were dumbfounded, they had been spinning thread for many years, and they didn't know that this silk was so simple to be withdrawn, was it those merchants who deceived them, or Jiang Changan's machinery?
It should be, it's a little bit more of the latter, right?
"It's interesting, we're here to help." The Ten Princes rolled up their sleeves and joined the ranks of the silk.
Others also got up to the action.
"Look, isn't it easy? After the silk is drawn, the thread is subdivided, and it can be spun.
You draw the silk reel, Uncle Sun, let's spin cotton thread, which requires a little skill, we only have four gaps, and two have eight, so we can spin eight threads at the same time.
Rotate the spool with your foot and do so. Jiang Changan sat in front of the spinning machine and showed Sun Ping, but it was easy to say, but it was difficult to do.
Sun usually spins thread all year round, and quickly understood Jiang Changan's meaning, but Jiang Changan's mechanical manufacturing is very powerful, but spinning yarn by herself is very ordinary, and she can never spin eight strands of yarn at the same time.
Seeing that Sun Ping was anxious, "Chang'an let me come." ”
Jiang Changan was embarrassed, she would do the spinning machine, but she hadn't done spinning, the cotton tube was not very obedient in her hands, maybe her hands were too small, she could spin if she took two strands of thread.
Sun Ping sat down and learned Jiang Changan's method to spin, at the beginning two, after a while, he could operate four threads, and his hands were eight, and he suddenly laughed so much that his teeth were gone.
"Good machine, so good spinning." Sun Ping thinks that they can sell cotton thread and silk thread directly, because it is too easy to make.
With this machine, they hired a few more long-term workers, and they were able to spin a lot of thread in one day.
After the silk thread and cotton thread are subdivided by the machine, it is the last step of the process, spinning, and the success or failure depends on this move.
The spinning machine is what Sun Ping is most familiar with, but the spinning machine made by Jiang Changan is very different from the one at home.
And it's so complicated that he can't understand it, and he doesn't know if the textile machine in the clan is like this?
Jiang Changan's textile machine does not need to be pushed by hand at all in the weaving process, but directly stepped on it with his feet, and those parts will push and spin by themselves, which is simply too convenient.
And the speed is extremely fast, such a high-end textile machine once again refreshed Sun Ping's understanding, could it be that Jiang Changan said that they can spin moonlight brocade today.
The others were laymen who couldn't understand machinery, but when a moonlight brocade came out, they were all astonished.
"This is Moonlight Brocade? It's so thin and soft, and it's cool, and the color is not dazzlingly white, so it's the most suitable for summer. Kang Yu exclaimed, this was the cloth he participated in weaving together, and his heart was suddenly full of pride.
"It's amazing, although this brocade cloth is light, it is tight and tough, and it is not easy to wear out." Li Ziyi couldn't put it down and kneaded the brocade cloth, but it didn't wrinkle, oh my God, what kind of immortal product is this? Will it be his family's business in the future?
Even if you are one of the shareholders, it is easy to get rich.
"The key is that it also has hidden prints, this quality of cloth, the palace does not have, it should be able to strive to become a royal product, and the price can be sold higher." The Ten Princes suddenly felt that they were quite earthy, and they had never seen anything so good.
"If that's the case, we'd better control the quantity, and keep the scarce as expensive." Li Shushen proposed.
"Ah, this? So we only sell cotton? But this cloth can be used in summer, but not in winter. "Is it possible to sell a piece of cloth to eat for a year? Sun Ping felt very unreal.
"Everyone's proposal is very good, this is beige moonshine cotton, summer is thin, winter we can use a thicker thread to weave thick, different colors, different prints.
Okay, you also know the general process, and I will write down the rest of the adjustment and technology and hand it over to Uncle Sun.
Our workshop doesn't know if it's a good choice? Someone could have moved the machines away.
Purchase raw materials, choose a good day and start work.
Ziyi, the sales of your house can also be launched, and this moonlight brocade will be used as a sample for publicity.
Each of you estimates a cost, and after everyone pays the money, you two are responsible for the rest, and you will come to me for technical problems. ”
Therefore, it is still easy to do technical work, and you don't have to worry about messy problems.
There was nothing disagreeable from a few people, "I and Master Li chose the location of the workshop, it is the courtyard of the Li family, and that area is also safe."
So I contacted the convoy and moved the machines over. "The rest of the things can be discussed directly with Master Li's side, Sun Ping doesn't plan to bother Jiang Changan anymore, he is still a child.
Who would believe that their money-making business was made by a child, oh my God! It's time to run, it's time to run.
It's just that the price is a bit big, he seems to have exchanged his daughter's life for it, but how can things in the world be perfect?
Sun Ping's father and son left, but the tenth prince had no intention of leaving.
"Chang'an, can I order twenty more crossbows from you last time?" This is the purpose of the Ten Princes.
Jiang Changan looked at the Ten Princes with a serious face, "Yun Ting, you must know that the bow and crossbow are murder weapons, and it can hurt others as well as yourself.
It's so powerful that you can't use it to kill innocents, and then you have to hold it to someone you trust and won't betray you.
Have you thought about the consequences? "If Zhao Yunting has a crossbow team in his hands, then his strength will definitely get a qualitative leap.
is afraid that someone will turn against the water and use the bow and crossbow to deal with himself, so Jiang Changan needs him to think about it carefully.
The Ten Princes were not sure if Jiang Changan knew his identity, so he had this concern, but he knew that others were doing it for his own good.
"Don't worry, if I have a crossbow, I can guarantee that it will not hurt you or innocent.
Guaranteed full control of the team. After many years outside, he has already understood the warmth and coldness of people, and he has also learned a lot of means and the ability to recognize people.
This self-confidence, the Ten Princes still have.
"That's okay, I can give you twenty, since you are my old customer, give you a preferential price, two hundred taels and one hand, and deliver it in two days, how about it?"
She doesn't just have a bow and crossbow, Jiang Changan rubbed her hands with a smile, and looked like a wealth fan.
But it was not annoying, but it looked a little cute and playful, and the Ten Princes smiled with relief, "Okay, thank you." ”
"No, no, it should be me thank you for your patronage." "There are a few thousand taels of money in the account, Jiang Changan is very happy, and the capital to invest in the weaving business is there.
A few people bothered for a day and quickly took their leave.
Jiang Changan was also tired, and after Sun Ping found someone to pull away the machinery, she washed it directly and fell asleep.
Li Shushen couldn't sleep a little, Jiang Xiaoyouwei was too capable, but he seemed very incompetent, if he didn't do something, he would become a soft eater.
Scold! Li Shushen laughed at himself, got up to change his night clothes, and said to the inner room, "Jiang Ling'er, I'll go out, you should be vigilant yourself." ”
From time to time, Jiang Changan's confused voice came from the house, "Hmm." "She probably didn't even realize she was going out, otherwise she would have asked.
"Liu Yu vigil." Li Shushen left a sentence and left silently.
Liu Yu didn't dare to sleep anymore, so she hurriedly got up, lit the lamp, and took out a book to read.
Li Shushen walked out of the inn, jumped between the rooftops, and according to his memory, came to a dilapidated courtyard.
There was only one light on in the courtyard, and the two old men sat lazily in the courtyard drinking each other.
Li Shushen fell silently in front of them, shocked that the wine glasses of both of them were poured, and immediately reprimanded, "What person? ”
On a big night, an excessively delicate child suddenly appeared here, flying down from the roof, is he still a person? Who can do this without Yijiazi skills?
The two old men's cold hairs stood up and looked at Li Shushen vigilantly.
Li Shushen smiled evilly, "Aren't you guests who come here?" ”
The two old men looked at each other, and it seemed that the child came prepared, "Do you have a token?" "Only token holders can pass here.
"No, are you sure you won't let me pass? Besides, I'm not here to stir things up, I'm just curious, I want to go in and have a look. ”
Li Shushen's words were understated, but the coercion released almost made the two old men unable to stand up.
"You!" An old man wants to do it.
He was stopped by another old man, "You'd better do what you say, or you know what this place is, right?" ”
Li Shushen suddenly became impatient, "Lead the way!" "What nonsense!
Here, of course, is the place where the killers in the rivers and lakes gather, which can be regarded as a black market, a place where killer organizations are established.
Inside, as long as you have money, there's nothing you can't buy.
Li Shushen came over tonight, first, to find his own personal guards in his previous life, and secondly, to find a few suitable candidates for Jiang Changan.
They are going higher and higher, and they even do the prince's business, and the situation they will face in the future will only become more and more dangerous, so they can't be without help around them.
The Hundred Ghost Guards are the general direction, and they are also difficult targets, so they have to be slowly figured out, but the guards around them are different, and it is still very convenient to buy one or two.
The two old men didn't dare to talk more, anyway, it was easy to get started, but inside was hell, and only those who could wave up in hell could be regarded as real heroes.
Because the contents are not just money that can be bought.
