Northwest Ma farmers are making trouble about "salary", and Lao Zhang is not a headache doctor, and he is also prepared in the morning. From the perspective of the entire political and business group in Wuhan, the first is technological upgrading, and the second is to open up the market.

The problem with linen is that it is uncomfortable to wear, and there is no pickling or pickling of linen in these years, and even the desizing is metaphysics. This is also why Li Dong, in order to show that he took the lead in being diligent and thrifty, did not wear a silk robe and wore a linen robe, but Li Dong's hemp robe was only worn for him after it was worn softly, otherwise how does that feel...... It's stronger than woolen panties.

If the nobles in the palace do the same, if the smooth skin is worn out, and the husband doesn't pamper himself, who will reason with him?

In terms of technology upgrading, Lao Zhang himself is only sure in the field of mechanical design, as for the oxidation, water system, pickling, and desizing of fabrics, it is beyond the scope of his understanding.

Before the illegal crossing, the textile industry that he could come into contact with, that is, wool and cotton spinning, hemp spinning, was in a state of ignorance. Even the linen cloth produced by Bashu, he had only heard of it and never seen it. Later, when I saw the raw materials of the linen cloth, it was even more suppressed.

Without it, the linen of the linen cloth can be smoked......

"How efficient is this new comb machine?"

"The breakage of hemp silk has been reduced a lot, and according to the loss of twenty and a half, it is harmless. The labor is also similar, and the efficiency is not known to be poor. ”

Hanyang Textile Factory has a separate school, and the recruited students must first successfully master the knowledge of middle school, secondly, they must intern in Dahe Workshop or Hanyang Textile Factory for more than half a year, and finally they must get a letter of introduction from the workshop director or above.

It is an internal and external learning institution, mainly to train professionals in the textile industry. In general, few children of families are willing to devote themselves to front-line production, so in the entire school, the best born in the social class, that is, a wealthy family in the city, is not even a local tyrant.

"...... after steaming"

"What is the temperature of steaming?"

"Two hundred degrees."

"Okay, go ahead."

"After steaming, soak the juice of the citron fruit press, which can soften the hemp material, and there is oil in the foam."

"Citron fruit?"

Lao Zhang was stunned, that thing still has this function? Citron is a bit similar to grapefruit or citrus, but it can't be eaten at all, it is so sour that it collapses and the teeth fall, and this thing is used for shade in front of and behind the house of Jiangnan people. The fruit is good-looking, it can also be fragrant, put it in the room, it will not rot for a month, it will not rot for two months, and it will be a natural air freshener. Unfortunately, it can't be eaten.

And because the skin of the citron is like a toad, the toad is called "leper group" in the south of the Yangtze River, especially in the area of Suchang, so the citron is also called "leprosy".

I thought it was an ornamental fruit tree, but I never thought it would have this function.

"What about soaking time?"

"Three days to January."

"How can there be such a large time span?"

"I couldn't find the reason for it for a while, but it was estimated that it was related to cooking, or maybe it was related to the purity of the soda ash when adding this process. At present, it is still being investigated, and the results of the experiment will have to wait for a while. ”

"Well, that's already fine, a month is nothing."

For such a result, it is already perfectly fine. One month is nothing, three months is fine.

"All these hemp threads are warp?"

"It's all warp, a batch of trial cloth, all here."

At this time, the linen cloth was not bleached, and there was no way to bleach it by ordinary means, and the cost was too high. Again, linen cloth is not for nobles to wear, and it makes no sense to bleach.

The cloth placed on the long table has its own mark, and the label presses the various parameters of the process, and the insiders know it at a glance, and the outsiders take it to see, and they are also confused, and they don't know what is written on it.

"The texture is already quite soft, not bad."

Before Zhang De was ten years old, he did not wear silk all day long in Jiangyin, but was lined with silk and wore a linen robe outside. Therefore, I have a personal feeling for the linen fabric, and there is no special linen robe, which is really not suitable for wearing.

"Is this colored?"

"It's also an accident, I didn't want to use the hemp soaked in citron juice water, it's very easy to turn green." As he spoke, the accompanying personnel said more, "We guess that it may be that the acid contained in the citron fruit has an unknown reaction with the indigo material, which is why the color is firm." ”

After that, he pointed to a piece of cloth behind him, "The cloth behind this one has been washed eight times and has not faded." The latter one has been washed sixteen times, and it has faded slightly, but to this extent, it is basically the most stable cyan, and it can continue to maintain this level until it has been washed seventy or eighty times. ”

Seventy or eighty times...... Lao Zhang's mind turned, and it was almost a year. In general, there are few people who wash their clothes once every three days.

Rao is an area like Wuhan, where the quality of life has been greatly improved, and there are strict requirements for continuous management of livelihood, but ordinary people are more likely to choose to take a bath than wash clothes.

Clothes can't be washed, fading is still a trivial matter, and washing clothes is a big thing.

After leaving the test area, Lao Zhang was very satisfied.

"Okay."

Lao Zhang nodded and said again and again, "Okay." ”

When the director of the Hanyang Textile Factory who accompanied him heard this, he immediately smiled, and the chief was in a high mood, and it seemed that he was right to support the school to improve the level of craftsmanship and strengthen experimental skills.

"This is all so that you can take charge of the overall situation and point out the way to achieve this result."

The fart was patted lightly, and Lao Zhang was extremely useful, and this is the smell.

"It's ready to be finalized and put into production, so make preparations early."

Zhang Deyan said to the leaders of the trading companies in Hanyang and Jiangxia, "This year, there is a huge demand for linen cloth in Jiaozhou, and ready-to-wear clothes, especially short shirts, are conservatively estimated to cost 200,000 pieces. ”

"Two hundred thousand!"

"Envoy, this ...... Is this really decided? ”

"Could it be that Du Nanhai and Li Jiaozhou are missing you a few pieces of silver?"

As soon as he heard that someone actually questioned it, Lao Zhang frowned slightly, and the staff on the side looked at his nose and nose, took out a small notebook, glanced at the stupid person who didn't look at the occasion, and made a note on the small notebook.

Seeing that Zhang De was unhappy, no matter how big his heart was, he knew that he was in trouble, but at this time, he didn't kneel down and beg for mercy, and it was useless to beg for mercy. Even if Lao Zhang is forced to face public opinion at this time and forgive in public, he will become more ruthless when the time comes.

For a while, the faces of several trading company leaders were extremely ugly, and they never expected that their peers would have such idiots. If you want to die, if you take your anger on them, won't it be a disaster?

With such a small episode, everyone was not interested, but Lao Zhang was still very satisfied with the trip. In terms of technological upgrading, it is no longer a problem, and mechanical problems are not a problem for him, as long as it can solve the quality of materials and the market, the design of production tools, he is fully sure.

"How can you be so happy?"

Wu Erniang, who came to Wuhan and was not idle, invited herself to be a secretary under Zhang De, mainly to deal with documents and the like, and convey specific practices, she is not familiar with the situation and needs to observe and learn.

All the girls in the family thought that Lao Zhang would not agree to Wu Meiniang's request, but they never thought that Lao Zhang was interested in Wu Meiniang's invitation to be his secretary, but it made the talented man "bitter chatting" tasteful.

Originally, only Cui Jue could help in government affairs, but now that there is a Wu Meiniang, Cui Mingyue only felt that her value and taste had changed sharply, and she was angry for several days without using the famous hair article of "Bitter Chat".

"Now that I am invincible, I am naturally happy, I am completely 'sitting alone in the pond like a tiger', and the people of the northwest and the capital will make trouble."
