Uncle Guo, your heart thief has been promoted again

Chapter 326 Jacquard
As Jiang Baoyu looked down, Shu Xin subconsciously clamped his thigh.

"Presumptuous! It's just nonsense! How can you, a little lady, have such dirty thoughts?"

Shu Xin was so angry that he couldn't speak coherently, and couldn't bear to look directly at Jiang Baoyu for a while.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what do you think this palace is talking about?"

Jiang Baoyu didn't blush at all, his eyes continued to move down, and finally stopped on Shu Xin's feet.

"I actually want to ask, could it be weaving with feet?"

"How did you know?"

Shu Xin's expression was greatly moved, and then he realized that he had been fooled. He pressed his lips tightly and shook his head violently, "No, no, no, I didn't say anything, I don't know anything!"

However, Jiang Baoyu could hear it very clearly.

She didn't know much about weaving machines. She only used them once when she was a maid in the palace, because she wanted to make cotton skirts. But at that time, she used a waist loom, which was made of cotton cloth woven by the strength of the waist and abdomen combined with the operation of the hands.

Of course, this kind of pattern can also be woven, but the cloth is narrow, and it is absolutely impossible to weave a large piece of cloth that can be used for sacrificial clothing.

Jiang Baoyu knew that Dayan also had a pedal loom.

But it can only weave simple patterns like twill or horizontal patterns, and it is still impossible to make a large cloth with patterns like satin damask.

Jiang Baoyu thought about it, and felt that although Shu Xin said he didn't know, he was inseparable from Mrs. Fang. He must have seen others weaving satin and flower damask.

So she tested Shu Xin again and said, "I know even if you don't tell me, for a fabric as exquisite as satin and flower silk, even if you get the blueprint of the loom, without the guidance of an expert like Mr. I can't weave it either."

"Humph."

Shu Xin turned his head away with a smug face, "It's good that you know! The weaving technique of satin and flower silk is my national treasure of Dai Viet, how can anyone easily learn it?

It took more than half a year for a smart person like me to finally understand the mystery. "

Jiang Baoyu saw that he had relaxed, so he also relaxed his expression, and continued following his words: "Yes, I, Dayan, have been in the country for more than a hundred years. If I want to have more patterns on my clothes, I have to come to the embroiderer." It is time-consuming and labor-intensive to do the second process. It is really not as good as the satin and flower silk in your country.

And it can be as thin as a cicada's wing, soft and comfortable.

It's really admirable for me and other female officials in Shangfu. "

Shu Xin nodded repeatedly, and when he was about to brag a few more words, he suddenly realized Jiang Baoyu's change.

Why is this crazy girl not crazy all of a sudden?
It looks like honey has been smeared on the mouth?
So he immediately became vigilant, leaned back tactically and said, "You don't talk sweet words here, I don't like this!"

"How could it be a sweet talk? Could it be that half of the official statement is false?"

Shu Xin recalled it, and couldn't help but fell into a sense of pride again.

The satin flower silk is an astonishing treasure in the first place, any kind of beautiful words can not be overstated when applied to it, how can Jiang Baoyu's words just now be regarded as false?

"You know what to do."

Shu Xin relaxed again, and leaned against the wall and asked, "What's the matter? You suddenly figured it out, and decided to use cotton planting to replace our five hundred satin and flower silk?"

"Don't worry, my lord. What is the mere cotton planting technique before such an astonishing secret technique as the satin and silk weaving technique? As long as I am happy, I can discuss anything."

As soon as Shu Xin saw that there was really something going on, he threw away the matter that Jiang Baoyu had just discussed, and couldn't help coughing a few times, even sitting in a bold posture.

Although he is still tied up into a zongzi by five flowers.

I heard Jiang Baoyu continue to ask: "It's just that there is one thing that I don't know, the healds on the loom all rise and fall at the same time. If you want to weave patterns on the fabric and make the fabric so light and thin, you must use the thread winding method.

But the pattern on the satin silk is so complicated, and there are tens of thousands of healds, is it really necessary to count the healds one by one, and wind the weft of the correct color? "

If that is the case, the weaver will spend a year's work on a piece of satin and flower silk with a slightly complicated style. Not to mention it is worth a thousand gold today, even if it is twice as expensive, it will not be able to get back the original cost.

However, although the satin and flower silk of the Yue Kingdom is now priceless, at least dozens of pieces can be produced every month, and they are all top quality.

Even if three people weave the same piece of cloth day and night, they still can't reach this progress.

Or is there something special about the apprentices taught by Mrs. Fang, that they can distinguish at a glance?
Jiang Baoyu shook his head, trying to get rid of the content of those nagging picture books he had read before.

Others believe in the theory of strange powers and chaotic gods, but she doesn't believe it.

The problem must still be with the loom.

I heard that Shu Xin was very proud.

"That's why the division of labor is very important. It is naturally cumbersome for one person to do it. If several people cooperate together, the situation will naturally be different."

"Division of labor?"

Jiang Baoyu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly confirmed with Shu Xin.

Shu Xin didn't realize it at this moment, and immediately nodded and said: "Yes. A person's energy is always limited. If you remember the color of the suit, you will not be able to remember the sequence. If you remember the sequence, you will forget it. suits.

There are some people to share, one is responsible for the design and color winding, and the other is responsible for pulling the heald. If they cooperate with each other, they will naturally get twice the result with half the effort. "

"So it takes two people to weave satin and damask?"

Jiang Baoyu suddenly realized, and immediately said to himself: "And the healds of the loom don't rise and fall at the same time?"

Shu Xin gasped, only then realized that he had been tempted by Jiang Baoyu.

He was careless, he never expected Jiang Baoyu to be so clever, and he grasped the key point of weaving satin and brocade silk from just a few words of his.

In fact, he still doesn't think that Jiang Baoyu and the others can really develop a satin and damask weaving machine with these few words.

But he still wanted to cover it up, so he continued to hesitate and say, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, we obviously used four people, otherwise you think how can we ensure timely delivery of such a complicated satin and flower silk?" ?”

She didn't want Jiang Baoyu, but she was not ready to listen to him at all. Once she had an idea in her mind, she would immediately implement it.

So she left Shu Xin behind, rushed out the door, and went directly to Si Yi Si's yamen.

Shu Xin was dumbfounded, and struggled for a long time before saying, "Hey? At least you can untie me first! What should I do if I need to urinate urgently later?"

Although it was almost five o'clock, in order to catch up with the time required by the emperor and relieve the calamity of doom overhead, Mu Gui and Zheng Siyi hadn't gone to bed yet, and even Chen Shangfu and Jiang Yuanhui brought their Those who follow themselves are here to study and read ancient books.

Thinking about what method to use to weave the beautiful fabric like satin and flower silk.

At this moment, Xu Qingmeng suddenly clapped the table and said, "Yes, it's a jacquard machine!"
