"In addition to the rinsing workshop, which was built on the banks of the Shiyang River, the spinning and weaving workshops were built in the city. When the weaver girl invited by the Wang family comes, you will think more about how to improve the loom, and these wools will be our food and drink in the future. ”

If you think about it, you can't run around in winter, and you can't do it when you're idle in the city, and the waterwheel is stared at by Peng Da's apprentices, so Hong Tao requisitioned Peng Da. Aren't you meticulous in your work, and I'll find you the most meticulous job, the loom.

Hong Tao didn't know anything about the specific working principle, only a very abstract picture was drawn on an ancient book, and Peng Dazhi grinned. But you have to do it with a grin, and the colt said that you will have to rely on these things for eating and drinking in the future. That has to be true, and the colt never jokes on this kind of issue.

Fortunately, there was no time limit for the horses, and after a few days, there were weavers and looms who were familiar with the structure of the loom and the loom were delivered. If there are no these conditions, Peng Da is ready to return to his hometown, and if he can't study it, he will cut off everyone's food and drink, and he can't afford to lose this person.

"My lord, Wujin Xing's workshop has also been decided, it is on the east bank of the Shiyang River, located in the downstream of Liangzhou City, and it will not dirty the water source here." Engaging in the textile industry can only be a long-term prospect, at least it must wait until the spring to achieve results, and the most important thing at present is still the old business, coking, iron, and steelmaking.

The Wu family, the Hu family, and Wang Datou all came with capable apprentices, and the factory site was also chosen. The Shiyang River in the west of Liangzhou City is good, with abundant water and moderate flow rate. The only disadvantage is that it is divided into wet and dry periods, so the position of the waterwheel is not easy to fix.

But Peng Da's apprentices had a way, and they were able to build a waterwheel that could move water wheels up and down. During the wet season, the water wheel is lifted, the water level drops, and the water wheel also descends with it, which does not affect the use.

"It's all old guys, don't worry. But this time is different from the past, not only the convenience of production, but also the security defense. Find someone to dig a well in the factory site first, and then decide after there is a sweet water well. The choice cannot be changed, and the city wall will be built to enclose it in the spring. In case the Tangut people come, we can't let our belongings be destroyed. ”

There is coal and iron near Liangzhou, and there used to be a lot of iron-making workshops in the city, and most of the raw materials did not need to be transported from the mainland, although the scale was not large for the time being, and it also had the foundation of smelting and metal processing industry, which was enough to supplement Weiqiao Town.

But Hong Tao is not worried about raw materials and labor, but about safety. The city of Liangzhou has not been included in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty so far, so the imperial court will not arrange for the forbidden army to come to set up defenses.

In case the imperial court really gave up Liangzhou for other interests, pretending not to see the Western Xia army attacking, then the defense here must be supported by itself.

The workshop of Ugin Xing can be built anywhere, but it must be self-sufficient and have complete defense facilities. It is best on the east bank of the Shiyang River, so that it is only a few hundred meters away from Liangzhou City.

Hong Tao planned to continue to build a new city after the land thawed in spring, so that Liangzhou City would expand westward to the river, and the Wujin Society would also be included. Come, I'll see who's going to attack, and the arrows that come out are fresh from the forge, and they're still hot, and they're fresh.

In addition, Hong Tao also wants to build a new bridge over the Shiyang River, because the coal mine is in Jinshan, less than 40 miles west of the Shiyang River, and if it is transported by detour, it will have to run twice the distance.

Not only to build bridges, but also to build railways, no, not railways, but wooden tracks. There is a large forest on the slopes of the southern side of Liangzhou, and the steel rails cannot be made yet, so it is actually the same for the wood instead. Anyway, it is not a steam locomotive, and the animal-powered rail car weighs about a ton per section, and the wooden rail can fully carry it.

Of course, the miners were taken prisoner by the enemy, and there was no one near Liangzhou City, Jiang Erlang and they had skis and dogs to pull the plow, and they could go deep into the snow field far in winter, and they were not afraid of pursuers. If you have the ability, you will chase and see who is buried by the snow first!

Speaking of skis, Hong Tao really wants to send the special forces who have improved the performance of skis to the workshop as an apprentice.

It's a pity that this soldier who was born in the box service was very unwilling to go to the workshop as an apprentice, he was thinking about accumulating war exploits in exchange for 500 acres of land for the local owner, the special forces had the most military operations, and the military merits were accumulated the fastest.

If you want to ask him what he did to make Hong Tao value it so much, it doesn't matter what he said, just breaded a layer of horse skin on the outside of the ski. Then, skis, which were not originally suitable for use in the mountains, became a winter marching weapon that could be used up and down!

The skis invented by Hong Tao used to be half a waste, swishing down the mountain from the mountain, but unable to go up the mountain, even if the special forces who have been specially trained, wearing this kind of skis to climb the mountain with the outer figure is very laborious. The short distance can be improvised, and after a long time, you have to lie down tired, and it is not as good as stepping on a snowboard.

This special soldier knows how to make leather goods, and he just wants to make a holster for his skis, so that when he carries the army on his back, he will not collide with the water bottle and the marching shovel. So I found a horse skin, and I was reluctant to use a large piece of leather, so I simply made do with the skin on the horse's leg.

However, after making this holster, he accidentally discovered that the skis could still glide with a layer of horse skin, and it did not affect the speed.

This is nothing, what is even more peculiar is that with this layer of horse skin, the skis can actually step up the mountain, without skimming the figure-eight feet, just like walking, the skis no longer slide down.

Why is this so? The special forces pondered for a long time on his own, and finally found out why. It is the horse skin that works, and only the skin on the horse's legs can be used, and the skin on other parts is not very good.

Because there is a layer of very hard short hairs on the skin of the horse's legs, which are all washed down and long. When going up the mountain, this layer of bristles is reversed by the snow, which increases the friction, and as long as the slope is not particularly steep, it will not slip. When sliding, the bristles come smoothly and are even smoother than wooden skis, so it doesn't affect the speed.

With the mentality that there is no match, this special soldier reported the secret of the horse skin to Jiang Erlang, and met Lord Shuai Si in less than an hour. Shuaiji didn't talk much nonsense, he went to the field to see the effect of this new type of snowboard, and then only said one sentence:

Ask this special soldier if he wants to be a master, it's okay if he doesn't want to, 300 acres of land is in hand, and he can retire now if he wants to, and Lord Shuai is responsible for arranging the work.

The special forces were almost stunned by this big pie, and they were stunned for a long time before they could hold back a sentence. He said that he hadn't married a daughter-in-law yet, and there was no one in his family, and now he was too lonely to retire, so who did he want to plant so much land for? I want to ask Lord Shuai Si if he can reward a female captive as a daughter-in-law, so that his future life will be promising.
