I became the son of Renzong

Chapter 199 Made a yarn (second update)
The New Military Weapons Supervision can no longer simply be called a workshop, and it is not appropriate to say that it is two workshops for military weapons and coinage.

This is a city, almost equivalent to a Xiaxian County.

Except for being adjacent to Bianliang, there is no business support, and the others are not smaller than a county.Regardless of population and land occupation.

"Ming Zhong, you may be troubled next..."

"Your Highness, Li Jie knows."

know?Do you really know?Zhao Xi didn't simply ask him to supervise the construction of military equipment, but even the tracks and copper and iron mines, he also intentionally asked him to supervise the construction.

Su Song had to concentrate on the machinery, and Li Jie had to run more.It is likely that less than half of the year is on the road.

"Ming Zhong, it's not about the Military Weapons Supervision. Whether Dongchuan and the meeting, as well as the new transportation route, I'm afraid you need to take care of it."

"Li Jie knows!"

I really know.Now Li Jie has understood the overall plan of His Highness the Crown Prince.To be honest, he is still young, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also young, so whatever he pays now is worth it.

Judging by the envious look on his father's face when he left Bianliang, Li Jie also knew that this was his luck.

Based on His Highness the Crown Prince's heavy use of him, Li Jie feels that when he reaches his father's age, his official rank may not be lower than that of his father who was born as a Jinshi.

The construction of the new Arms Supervision has started, because the old Military Arms Supervision has been sold out.

This time, the court stepped in and ordered General Zuojian to build it, which is considered a steal.

Some things are just like this, if you make room for each other, you can get by.

This also gave Li Jie more free time, so he went south, bringing a few merchants in name, and money and food.

Su Song thinks that His Royal Highness is a person who can't be idle.Wouldn't it be better to learn how to handle memorials from officials?It’s okay to just listen to the teachings of your husbands, why are you tinkering with novelty gadgets when you have some free time?
Su Song couldn't remember how long he hadn't had a banquet.

According to the official, he was the fastest promoted in the same year, but the number one scholar back then was not promoted as fast as him, a second-class Jinshi.

That's right, the entire guard battalion, regardless of civil or military, although the dispatch has not changed, all the officials are being promoted.Nanzheng counted once, and this time His Highness the Prince's generosity also won the approval of the court, and once again added officials to the guard battalion.

Now, even the guard battalion has ranks.

Randomly pull out a soldier, and go to other Forbidden Army, at least he can be a Colonel Xuanjie.

But no one thought of leaving, even the Zhong family and the Zhe family.

Su Song didn't even think about leaving. Many of the things His Royal Highness tinkered with were his favorites.This kind of unstoppable busyness made him a little painful but also happy.

There was a general in charge of the Military Weapons Supervision over there, and His Highness the Crown Prince was quite straightforward, throwing out the money and food, and throwing out all kinds of blueprints, and just let it go.

atmosphere!The whole court commented on His Highness the Prince like this.

It's a pity that His Royal Highness is messing with other things again.

Zhao Xi asked people to find wool, yes, it was wool, the kind that was cut from sheep.

Then I made a dense sticky board covered with fine iron needles...

Zhao Xi still remembers the method of making wool thread by hand.Wash the wool until the water is no longer cloudy. This process removes debris and grease from the wool.

Next, use two sticky boards covered with fine iron needles to beat the wool continuously until the wool is even and fluffy.

Next is spinning.Zhao Xi has seen a spinning wheel before, even in Neiyuan, and the empress still has nothing to do to spin some thread for fun... Zhao Xi thinks it is purely for fun, of course, it is not for fun in the records of the servants and court officials. It is the empress who loves to work.

But Zhao Xi is embarrassed to do this in the inner court...His Royal Highness, the heir to the great line who is wise and powerful, really wants to play with women's spinning, but playing with the empress is two different concepts.

Zhao Xi also didn't want to explain to the princes of the court for a long time because of this, but in the end he couldn't explain clearly and had to be reprimanded.

At any rate, he remembered a method, the most primitive kind of "eight" spinning threads...

It is to use a gourd-shaped wooden object with a nail on it. First, knead the wool by hand to form a thread, tie it to the nail, and then start to rotate the "eight pieces". twisted into a thread.

It was a bit rough the first time, but Zhao Xi was still very happy. He had never done it, only seen it, and it was done after the first try.

Next, Zhao Xi rubbed it into a very thin thread very carefully...

Zhao Xi did all this with the door quietly closed, and she couldn't afford to lose that man!

It's not that I'm afraid that I won't be ashamed, it's that I'm ashamed of playing this game.

Although there is no concept that defines the division of labor between men and women, but if he really wants to spread the word about his work, it is estimated that his reputation in the past 20 years will become a joke.

He even drove civil servants out to a banquet, and the generals yelled and went to training, just playing alone.

Su Song didn't like lively scenes, and he was always out of tune with those scenes of reciting poems against each other.

As for the duplicity of greetings, it made him a little embarrassed, even a little restless.

So, the early excuse came back, and he wanted to see what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was up to.

As soon as the door was opened, not only Su Song was stunned, but His Royal Highness was also stunned. It felt like the whole scene was frozen in a sermon.Only the rotating "eight" is still rotating...

This... is too embarrassing, even more embarrassing than talking nonsense with the scholars.How could His Royal Highness have such a preference?God!What did I see?
Knowing the emperor's privacy is really not a good thing!What Su Song saw was that His Highness the Crown Prince had this hobby...

I knew it was time to knock on the door!The problem is, this has always been Su Songgu's messy house, who would have thought His Royal Highness would be in it and do this!

wrong!Su Song suddenly remembered that His Royal Highness was looking for wool...

"Your Highness, wool?"

"Well, wool."

"Can it be made into a thread?"

"No, this is not it."

Su Song asked in surprise, but Zhao Xi was still answering in a daze.What a shame!
It could have been tested by Neiyuan, and it could have been tested by a maid at random. Zhao Xi was worried that such a simple process would be exposed, so he tried it himself.

Unexpectedly, Su Song ran into him.

Su Song didn't seem to notice Zhao Xi's unnaturalness, but just took the wool from His Highness the Crown Prince's hand...

Then, Su Song didn't even care about where His Royal Highness was still in a daze, so he started to do his homework.

The spinning wheel, the simplest spinning wheel, is very easy for Su Song. Combined with His Royal Highness's operation, he made some adjustments, called the master craftsman, and made a simple, miniature version of the spinning wheel within a few strokes.

In the end, Su Song also played with what the women did... and spun the wool left by His Royal Highness into thread directly with that spinning wheel.

"Your Highness, it is really possible!"

Su Song is stretched, resilient, and elastic.The key is the warmth of wool itself...

This is not just as simple as adding another kind of fabric, it is a pioneering work that can be passed down through the ages.

Su Song was pleasantly surprised, he didn't even think about the lack of wool for Guochao, just like war horses.
