Li Chengqian had long expected that Liu Hongji would say this, and he was not afraid to tell the whole process.

So he said: "Your Majesty, if you want to see it, how about watching the whole process with your sons?" ”

Li Shimin is eager to do this.

Empress Eldest Sun said: "I also want to see how cotton blossoms become wearable clothes!" ”

"Brother Huang, take me with you!"

Li Lizhi also demanded.

"So do I!"

"Your Majesty, please!"

So Li Chengqian introduced everyone inside.

When they went inside, it turned out that there were more people, a lot of cotton was piled up, and there were people in charge of each category.

"Gao Ming, tell Your Majesty, what are these processes?"

Empress Eldest Sun said.

Li Chengqian understood, so he said: "This cotton textile needs to go through cumbersome processes such as ginning, elastic cotton, spinning, sizing, winding, yarn walking, dyeing, and weaving. Your Majesty, please look at ......"

He began to walk through the process.

"There are three main stages of ginning and elastic cotton technology: first, peel off the cotton seeds by hand and take out the cotton; second, rub the cotton with an iron rod to remove the cotton seeds; Third, the use of churning or rolling and kapok slingshots is the cotton that everyone sees outside. ”

"Playing cotton, it looks very new, can I give it a try?"

What are you kidding, Li Shimin wants to try, but he Li Chengqian dares to say no? So he said:

"Absolutely! Your Majesty, please! ”

Li Shimin rolled up his sleeves, walked to the kapok slingshot, picked up the slingshot, and bounced it directly.

Pedal Boom......

Li Shimin really has two hits, and this operation is as fierce as a tiger.

Its posture is no worse than that of the workers here.

At the same time, it also attracted a round of applause.

"Good! Good! ”

"Your Majesty is amazing!"

……

Everyone cheered, and in Li Shimin's ears, he could feel that he was refreshed.

Even Li Chengqian thinks that Li Shimin's posture is very good.

So he blurted out: "I can't imagine that Your Majesty has never played cotton, and you can be so skilled!" It's really an eye-opener! ”

Empress Eldest Sun also said: "Your Majesty is a person who practices martial arts, and naturally this kind of work is not a problem!" ”

There seems to be only Li Shimin in her eyes.

"Guanyin, don't lift me, just play it for a while, and my hands are sore."

As soon as he finished speaking, he set the slingshot aside.

Then he suddenly sighed: "Workers are not simple! Such hard work, year after year, day after day, is tireless. ”

"Your Majesty, they are a compromise that they have to make in order to live!"

Li Chengqian continued with Li Shimin's words.

If in the past, if others dared to interject, Li Shimin might be angry, but today he will not.

"A good one who compromised for life, came to someone, and all the laborers present today will be rewarded with a penny! That's what I can do! You've all worked hard today! ”

Li Shimin said.

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked, and then they bowed and bowed down.

"Thank you, Lord Longne!"

"You don't have to thank me, if you want to thank yourself! Let's all go and do things! ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! ”

And they began to do things again.

"Come on, Gao Ming, you can introduce me to what to do next!"

"Yes! Your Majesty! , then the next is spinning, in the final analysis, is the process of turning cotton into cotton thread, Erchen after this period of research, invented a hydraulic spinning machine. ”

For this kind of machine, Li Chengqian can make as many as he wants, it is nothing more than to have a drawing, and then let the craftsmen of the dynasty build it according to the drawings.

It's also fortunate that the character who was reborn is a prince, but if it's an ordinary family, you have drawings, and people are not willing to make them for you.

"I'm very curious, come on, let me see."

Li Shimin was more and more shocked, and at the same time, the eldest grandson Empress and Liu Hongji on the side were also the same.

There is also Li Liqian, who looked at Li Chengqian with an almost adoring gaze, and from now on, Li Chengqian is her idol.

Li Chengqian led everyone to the place where the water flowed, only to see that a behemoth was raised here.

"Your Majesty, please look here!"

At the place Li Chengqian was pointing to, people looked over.

"Our traditional spinning wheel is generally 2 to 3 spindles, with a maximum of 5 spindles. And Erchen thought that there were still too few traditional things, and it couldn't be mentioned for our speed, and it would cost everyone's manpower and material resources, so Erchen suddenly thought that if water could be used to complete this part of the problem, would the efficiency be improved?

That's why I brought together a large number of craftsmen to create such a hydroloom! It can have dozens of spindles working at the same time at a time, using hydraulic drive. Taking spinning cotton thread as an example, the general spinning wheel spins up to 3 catties of yarn per day, while the large spinning wheel can spin more than 100 catties a day. ”

Li Chengqian's endless talk made Li Shimin and the others stunned for a moment, and even Liu Hongji no longer expressed doubts.

"Then I learned that once it is a thread, it is much easier to become a dress."

Empress Changsun took over the conversation at this time and said.

After all, making clothes for women in ancient times was one of their essential skills, and once they had threads, it was easy to understand.

"Well, according to Gao Ming, then this cotton can indeed be made into clothes! Gao Ming, you've done me a great favor again! ”

"Your Majesty, Erchen thinks that in the spring of next year, a large amount of cotton must be planted, and it must be forced to plant, so that next winter, Datang will no longer be cold!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Gao Ming is right, it is exactly the same as my thoughts! ”

"Your Majesty!"

Liu Hongji wanted to say something, but was scolded back by Li Shimin.

"Liu Aiqing, don't say anything more, it's rare to be smart and dedicated to the people, if you continue to talk about it, I'm afraid it won't be good!"

Li Shimin's words, how could Liu Hongji not understand, so he had no choice but to give up.

"By the way, Gao Ming, I see that you produce a lot of cotton, can you ......?"

"Your Majesty, the first batch of sons and daughters is naturally to supply Your Majesty and the Queen Mother first, and at the same time, prepare cotton clothes for the unborn royal brothers and sisters!"

Empress Eldest Sun touched her stomach and smiled.

"Child, your eldest brother has prepared new clothes for you, and when you are born, you must assist your eldest brother well!"

"Hahaha, I'm very happy today!"

can solve a big thing for him, how can Li Shimin not be happy? Li Chengqian also collected 200 points, although it is not much, but it is better than nothing, and by the way, it can be used to buy a book, and it is not wasted.

The group was waiting for a happy time, when suddenly a small yellow door broke into it.

"Report!"
