Chapter 219

The other Orito behind looked at the man who was braver than them with complicated expressions.

Then one or two came forward, stood behind the weaver, looked at Yun Duo persistently, and told their wishes.

Yun Duomo, this is not throwing a stone at her own foot, this is throwing a stone at her own head.

Why is she so busy, she preached to others on a whim.

But, shouldn't dyeing and dyeing cloth be the job of you weavers? You ask me why I don't do this business...

I wanted to send these people back several times, but I endured it. Just because of the consistent color tone of the linen fabric for so many years, it is conceivable that it is not very possible for these people to automatically develop the color tone and dye it.

One is that they do not have enough knowledge, and the other is that they lack guidance. They don't know where to start.

The guests at the back also seemed to realize that something big was about to happen to the tribe, something big, they stared at the counter with BIUBIU eyes, looking forward to the development of the event.

Yun Duo lowered her head weakly, she wanted to go back to check Du Niang, "Come to my place at night."

"Okay!" They said in unison, happily.

Putting your face down and taking the first step, the second and third steps will be easier to take, and the embarrassment and awkwardness at the beginning will be completely gone.

As for the technical work of dyeing and coloring, Yun Duo has never been in contact with it, and she has only read a little more theory than others.

If it is really used in practice, to be honest, she is also a rookie, so it is more appropriate to learn together than to teach others.

After going home and checking Du Niang for an afternoon, what she got was only superficial.

The big words have been put down, let's learn.

In the evening, more than a dozen weavers really flocked to Xitai's house, all of them were women, old and young.

They still carried the newly woven cotton cloth, a piece of pure white.

"Looking at these cotton cloths, what can you think of?" Yun Duo asked with great interest.

"Snow!"

"winter!"

Yun Duo smiled, yes, white snow, snow-covered winter, this is the purest color.

"But snow is also the easiest to get dirty, just like this piece of white cotton cloth, you can imagine that you go out in pure white, clean, and when you come back, your clothes are covered with dirty mud and black. traces of it?"

Everyone was speechless, and they didn't understand what Yun Duo wanted to express.

"I know that what I said during the day may make you feel a little uncomfortable. I just want to say that cotton cloth does feel slightly better than linen cloth, but pure cotton cloth is not suitable for daily life, and it is not stain-resistant.

In our daily life, we either go hunting in the mountains or go to the fields to farm. If you want to change you, are you willing to wear such clothes to work?
If you dye it in various colors and change its characteristics slightly, these fabrics can be more popular and acceptable to the general public, instead of only fading away after the initial wave of novelty. People care about it. "

The faces of the people paused, which they did not expect.

Everyone was too happy to weave the new cloth, and forgot to consider other aspects.

Back then, people had no choice but to wear linen, but the color of the linen was stain-resistant, and they were not afraid of ruining their clothes.

When people have a choice, linen may be inferior to cotton, but after a long time, people will see the shortcomings of cotton, and then cotton will face the end of being abandoned, so there is no way for new types of cloth win the market.

What are they weaving cloth for?for dinner.

If the fabric you weave can't be sold, what are you going to eat?
During the day, they were indeed dissatisfied. Yun Duo said what they lacked, but they only felt that they had lost face. This is where they are superficial.

Recognize your own mistakes, be brave enough to accept and change, and only then will you make great progress.

Probably everyone understands this truth, it depends on whether you are willing to accept it, and what kind of attitude you take to accept it.

After understanding Yun Duo's intentions, many people were ashamed.

Yun Duo didn't delve too deeply into it, as long as he said it, it was a personal matter whether he accepted it or not.

"You have all seen the fabrics I brought out today, and to be honest, I also like those bright colors,
But if you really want to say how to say that the fabric is dyed in various colors, I am in a state of confusion just like everyone else.
So, let's not talk about asking for advice, let's learn together. "

The modesty in Yun Duo's words made everyone feel more relaxed.

It's not a difficult person to get along with. It's not the same personality as they initially imagined. This speech made everyone feel that the distance between Yun Duo and Yun Duo has been shortened a lot.

"Okay, Miss Yunduo, we will study with you, and you will be our leader!"

"Haha, yes, Miss Yunduo, we will follow you!"

The slightly cautious atmosphere slowly dissipated amid the laughter, and Yun Duo began to tell everyone the theories she had collected.

To dye cloth, there must first be dyes.

This time and space is too backward, and it is completely impossible for chemicals and chemical dyes to appear.

So how do you get the dye you want?
Plant dyeing, herbal dyeing.

Both of these are natural dyes, which are healthier and more environmentally friendly than chemical dyes. Even dyes extracted from some herbal medicines can have health effects on the human body after they are applied to fabrics.

The only downside is that the color is not as variable as chemical dyes.

"Plants, herbs? Miss Yunduo, you mean, do you mean that we can get the desired color from plants?"

"Yes, for example, blue, the blue of the sky, we can get it from the blue grass, and the blue of the sea, the deep blue, we can get it from the Radix Isatidis, the yellow of the gardenia, and the red of the safflower. Lah, wait, wait, for this extraction, we need to conduct experiments by ourselves."

"Then if it's grass, can it extract green?"

"Yes, that's right." Yun Duo nodded, this is the most direct cognition and theory she wants to bring to everyone.

What kind of plant do you see, as long as you can research it, you can get the same color.

"In this way, there will be more colors that can be extracted. There are colorful wild flowers everywhere on the mountain, as well as weeds and trees of various strange colors. If all of them can be extracted, our fabrics will be full of flowers."

"Yes, if those colors are dyed on the fabric, then on the mainland, it will no longer be a single light brown, and you can see colorful neon on the street." Yun Duo is good at painting big cakes, satisfying people's needs After imagining, you can do it...

Some weavers touched the white cloth in their hands and began to imagine that they painted different colors on it. In the world of cloth, they became the ones who ruled.

"However, how can we extract the color?"

After this night's discussion, the theory was initially taught to the weavers. In the following days, Yunduo didn't have much time to manage the store. She and everyone started the experiment on how to extract the color of plants.

For example, wormwood, after being boiled into juice, dyes the fabric and turns it into olive green, which is a kind of dye.

For example, bluegrass is directly mashed and fermented, and after the fermentation, it becomes sky blue.

Yun Duo even made the ginger in the space into a paste, and the juice squeezed out was light yellow.

These plant dyes, after coloring, will lighten the color and look very natural.

Of course, when it comes to the actual coloring, the steps are much more complicated.

The white cloth must first be boiled in high-temperature water to remove impurities, then dried, dyed many times, fixed with salt water, and boiled repeatedly until it is confirmed that the color will not fade.

Just to extract the dye, everyone spent more than ten days to experiment with the roots, leaves, flowers, etc. of various colors of plants that they had seen and could find.

After finishing, the first batch of fabrics that were dyed were indeed beautiful and successful.

When the weavers were ecstatic, Yun Duo had another problem, and she always felt that something was missing.

These dyed fabrics are still pure color fabrics. Wouldn't it be more beautiful if patterns could be printed on the fabrics?

Printing patterns on fabric?
This idea makes people who are just excited become silly and cute.

How to print the pattern?

Yun Duo thought for a long time, and carved out a seal with a pattern, stamped with pieces of cloth?Here's one way.

If you want to change the color, it seems that there are tie-dyeing methods and inkjet dyeing.

"Miss Yunduo, won't it be complicated to print on colored fabrics? Will there be color crossover after printing?"

Yun Duo rolled her eyes, wondering why she was so obsessed with it, she would know if she tried it.

He took out a piece of light blue cloth and spread it out, soaked it in the red dye with his hands, and then slapped it on the cloth, and a bright purple slap print appeared.

Crowd: ...

"Hey, don't just stand there, come and have a try. You can use your hands or other small objects. You can print your favorite patterns on them, or draw them directly on the fabric."

This is simply crazy!
While the corners of everyone's mouths twitched, they followed Yun Duo's instructions and printed their own masterpieces on the fabric. In the end, they really went crazy.

Some have footprints, some use branches stained with dye and throw them directly on the fabric, some use accessories as seals, and some even draw on a whim, four images that they don't even know. That scene makes people feel like they have entered a madhouse.

After playing, boil the fabric again to fix the color.

No one expected any special surprises. Everyone thought that this was an experience of playing wildly with Yun Duo. At most, it would only destroy a few pieces of fabric, but everyone had fun and it was worth it.

But when everyone unfolded the fixed fabric and hung it to dry, the beautiful patterns presented in front of everyone were stunned.

Is this really their crazy masterpiece just now?

On the light background color, different patterns appear, the patterns are not neat, but they have a messy and harmonious beauty.

They thought that the palm prints and feet that were not on the table looked so interesting, not obtrusive at all, and more vivid than solid-color fabrics.
