Chapter 423 Being a Weaver Girl Is Not Easy
The workshop in Linjiazhuang has been extremely lively these days, and the cotton harvested by Lin and Lu villages has already been brought into the workshop.

The people in Lujiazhuang, every household received the twelve pennies from the sale of cotton, and they were crazy with joy.If these lands were used to grow hemp, how could they get such a rich return!
We must know that in Datang, a peasant family with an income of fifteen guan a year is basically self-sufficient, and may have a little surplus.

The fifteen guan income includes not only the grain and mulberry in the fields, but also all the family income brought about by agricultural and sideline products.

But now just for growing cotton, each household in the two villages can get ten pennies!With this money to buy millet and linen, it is more than enough to pay "rent" and "tune".

In addition to cotton, Lujiazhuang also planted a lot of sweet potatoes. Although they don't know how to make fans, sweet potatoes are also a good ration.

It is foreseeable that both Linjiazhuang and Lujiazhuang will have a good year this year, and there will be no problem with basic food and clothing.

However, the money from Lujiazhuang has been distributed to households, but the money from Linjiazhuang has been withheld by Patriarch Lin.

There are 42 households with a total of [-] coins, all of which are invested in the workshop as the original capital.

The workshop in Linjiazhuang belongs to the clan's communism, of which Lin Wanwan is the absolute major shareholder.

Lin Wanwan paid for the labor and materials used to build the workshop. This was a huge investment, and Lin Wanwan spent a total of 120 gold.

Afterwards, the ladies from the clan were invited to work, and Lin Wanwan also had to pay for the wages.

Therefore, Lin Wanwan officially named it Lin's Workshop after the completion of this building, holding 70.00% of the shares, and the remaining 30.00% is owned by the Lin family.

And the money from selling cotton this time is the first capital invested by the Lin family in the workshop, which is used to buy cotton from other villages in Shan County.

Although the money was not distributed, the people of Linjiazhuang were still very enthusiastic.

Everyone was very excited when they thought that the magnificent workshop and warehouse built on the gravel ground at the entrance of the village actually had their own home.

As for putting no money into the workshop, there are naturally some people in the clan who oppose it.It's just that what they say doesn't count, and they can't make any decisions.

This kind of general direction is all decided by Patriarch Lin, elders of various clans, and the backbone of the next generation selected.

Now the Linjiazhuang workshop is divided into two parts, front and back. The front one is mainly in charge of five people, including Sun Huiyao, He Ada, Lin Mengbo, Lin Mengjin, and Lin Mengxing, selected by Lin Wanwan, to collect cotton from outside.

And the back of the workshop is composed of women's soldiers from Linjiazhuang—but anyone who is willing to come can come to learn.Each person also has a basic salary of [-] yuan per month, plus piecework bonuses and lunch allowances.

This year, there is no mulberry and hemp planted in the entire Lin family village, so there is not much need for weaving.

Ladies are busy with weaving fishing nets and doing housework every day, and the labor intensity is not high, so when they hear that weaving girls are recruited in the workshop, they don't want to go.

Except for a very few families who are particularly stubborn and do not want their wives to leave the house to work, and old ladies who are too old to weave because they are too old to weave, almost all the ladies over 15 years old in Linjiazhuang come to work in Lin's family. Workshop work.

Lin Wanwan started teaching with a pedal cotton gin, teaching everyone how to pick out cotton seeds from cotton conveniently and quickly.

These deseed cottons are naturally very useful, and can be further spun by spinning machines, cottons are stretched, dyed, and then weaved by looms.

The separated cotton seeds will not be wasted either, some of them will be used in Lin Wanwan's medicine storehouse to make traditional Chinese medicine, and some will be used for oil extraction—but oil extraction is a big project, and Lin Wanwan doesn't have the energy to do it yet, so let's put it away for now.

Regarding cotton ginning, cotton plucking, and spinning, Lin Wanwan didn't need to teach her how to do it. She just demonstrated how to use a few tools for everyone. The hard-working women in the Tang Dynasty who are used to this kind of work will understand. .

What needs to be learned most is the step of dyeing. Regarding this, Lin Wanwan did not completely "bring the doctrine" from modern times, but instead used local materials from the Tang Dynasty, using fake indigo, Wenchang cone bark, black ink, turmeric, sumac, Natural raw materials such as madder and grain wood are used to dye the spun cotton thread.

The dyed cotton threads are then woven into various brightly colored cotton cloths.

The link of weaving is not simply weaving, and the weaving technology also needs a lot of effort.

Although Lin Wanwan can bring advanced tools such as Huang Daopo's textile machine, she doesn't know much about "wrong yarn color matching, heald yarn pulling flowers" and so on in weaving technology. At present, she only teaches the simplest ones.

She really has too much to learn every day, and medicine cannot be slackened every day. Guqin and konghou are rarely encountered now, but she still has to spend a lot of time practicing every day.

In addition, she has to study farming in modern times, and for this cotton business, she also needs to learn weaving techniques.

Hand-weaving technology is already an intangible cultural heritage item in modern times, and it is not easy for Lin Wanwan to learn it.Fortunately, there is a good thing in modern times. As long as you want to learn, you can always find a place to learn by spending money.

The Internet and live broadcast are also good things. There are many meaningful live teaching courses that can be watched repeatedly after buying them.

Lin Wanwan's learning of weaving technology is purely to drive ducks to the shelves, just like studying medicine, it is a push to go to Liangshan, not her real interest, not as happy as learning guqin and konghou.

Every time I study, I encourage myself with "the sea of ​​learning is boundless and hard work". For the happy life of the people of Tang Dynasty, it is really not easy for Lin Wanwan!

Compared to how busy she is, Xiao Chong's life makes Lin Wanwan envious again.

He has [-] mu of work land, half of which he rents out to the common people, and half of which is planted by his own farmer.

A lot of cotton was planted in this half of the field.This time, Xiao Chong made a lot of money just from selling cotton.

You must know that the common people have made money by planting cotton, and they have to set aside part of it to pay taxes, while the officials do not have to pay taxes. This job field is an additional subsidy for them.

Xiao Chong himself didn't need to learn how to farm or weave, but he could sit back and reap the rewards. Lin Wanwan was so envious.

When he followed the farmer to Linjiazhuang to sell cotton (actually for the sake of eating), Lin Wanwan said a lot of acid words.

What kind of person is Xiao Chong, who can know elegance by hearing Xiange, and feels a little funny about Lin Wanwan's revealed thoughts, and really wants to tell her, do you know that the county magistrate's daily official duties are piled up like a mountain!

If he didn't know people well, he would be light to death from exhaustion.

It is not easy to be a good official, and it is even more difficult to be a good official who does practical things.

"Cousin, do you know what a poem I like recently?"

"How can I know that." Lin Wanwan, who was tired and full recently, didn't bother to think, and she was not a roundworm that burrowed into his stomach.

Xiao Chong smiled sheepishly and said: "The road is long and long, and I will search up and down."

"Unexpectedly, my cousin also likes the line "Li Sao", you stole my motto!"

"Hahaha, but the heroes see the same thing."
