Chapter 308: The unraveling of blazing fire

In fact, even without the addition, this hydraulic textile machine already possesses the essence of later spinning machines, only missing one key component, the drafting device.

For weaving ordinary linen yarn, the drafting device is not necessary because the linen fiber is long enough.

However, as a technical reserve, Suyou still added this organization, not only to obtain thinner, tighter and better quality twine, but also to prepare for the future spinning of cotton with shorter fibers.

Under the current technical conditions, this device actually does not present any difficulty.

The drafting mechanism on the Jenny spinning machine is nothing more than two wooden rods that can slide back and forth, and a wooden bracket is used to replace the hand that pulls the sliver.

When spinning, the spinner holds the wooden bracket with one hand to move it back and forth, and shakes the crank with the other hand to rotate the spindle. The cotton sliver passes between the two wooden poles and is wound onto the spindle.

Due to the movement of the wooden pole, the cotton sliver is stretched while being twisted, thus solving the key technical problem of spinning cotton yarn.

Ackley's spinning machine used a wheel to drive four pairs of rollers with different speeds, replacing the wooden poles on the Jenny spinning machine, making the stretching work more standardized.

Later, in the modern multi-spindle spinning wheels that were used until the mid-twentieth century, a drafting mechanism using tension and twist control was created.

These mechanical components are not difficult for the people of the Song Dynasty to understand or make, so they were quickly designed and put into use in the Su family weaving workshop.

After these improvements, the Su family's large waterwheel spinning wheel is fully capable of cotton spinning, and it can handle linen materials with ease.

Today, the quality of Sujia's linen materials has been improved to a superb level, due to the use of caustic soda.

Chengjia's paper products also use hemp for a large part, and lime is used to retting hemp.

Since the discovery of chemical acidity and alkalinity, the process of processing paper pulp has changed from empiricism to a process guided by chemical theory and experiments.

Various acid and alkaline substances were tried one by one by the craftsmen of the Cheng family. When caustic soda was finally used, the craftsmen discovered that the hemp fiber treated with caustic soda would undergo a magical change.

When cotton and linen fibers are exposed to concentrated caustic soda solution, the fibers will swell, increase in diameter and shorten in length.

Under high-power magnification, it can be seen that the fiber has changed from a twisted flat ribbon to a smooth cylindrical shape.

Under tension, the unique cell cavity of cotton and linen fibers will almost disappear and the yarn will shrink.

At this time, if tension is applied and the alkali is washed away, the yarn and fabric will show a magical effect and become silky and shiny.

After mercerization treatment, due to changes in the physical structure, changes in its adsorption capacity, chemical reaction capacity and a series of physical and mechanical properties are caused.

Firm, crisp, smooth, breathable and sweat-wicking, good moisture absorption, strong fat and heat transfer ability, comfortable to wear and cool.

Moreover, it shrinks less, has strong coloring, is not easy to deform, does not fade, and is easy to wash and dry quickly.

This is the mercerized cotton and linen of later generations, cotton and linen that are as silky as silk!

This kind of mercerized ramie fabric, because it is "light as cicada wings, as thin as rice paper, as flat as water mirror, and as thin as silk", was deeply loved by dignitaries as soon as it came out. The first batch of products was purchased by the transshipment department.

Sent to Bianjing.

Su You could tell at a glance that Wang Zhongzheng, Li Xian and others were not fakes, that's why.

There is no need to give it an elegant name, just call it "Gonpot".

Knowing that the extremely poor Kuizhou was hoarding mountains of ramie, Banniang, who was worried about the shortage of ramie raw materials, almost fainted with happiness.

Mrs. Cheng made the decision, and Sitong Company initially invested in eight hydraulic workshops to form a production capacity of 800 kilograms of ramie yarn per day, and then rented a storage center in Kuizhou and set up financial outlets for ramie planting support and product purchase.

After the autumn harvest, the river receded, and the last section of the city wall began to extend toward the river.

This section is somewhat similar to Feishayan in Dujiangyan, which uses large bamboo cages filled with pebbles and is only as high as a person's shoulders. It will be reinforced every year after floods.

The wood coming down from the upper reaches was intercepted on the river and piled up into huge piles.

Kuizhou's shipbuilding industry has unique conditions.

Located downstream of Kuimen, there is no need to consider the impact of Yanlidui.

The large shipyard can be put into use after repair and repair, and large ships of 1,000 tons can be built.

At the same time, this is also the place where the ramie tree is produced, and there is so much wadding for ships that it is almost free.

Coupled with the confidence in Suyou, the Kuizhou-type large schooner was put on the design agenda. The shipbuilding base in central Sichuan began to move to the Xiakou.

This was also an important transformation of the industry in central Sichuan. Sitong Company began to prepare to formally integrate with Wuzhong and Zhejiang, the second largest economic center in the Song Dynasty, to form a large-scale commodity exchange.

However, the prerequisite for everything is stability.

The construction of mountain ponds in many Yi villages has been completed. After the autumn harvest, a large amount of manpower began to be invested in the transformation of terraces.

The Han people at the foot of the mountain also began to transform large areas of terraced fields, and at the same time began to prepare to transform some mountain and forest slopes into hemp fields.

However, nervous agitation began to spread in the wind. In mid-September, many Yi people who wanted to go to Kuizhou traveled across mountains and rivers to report that the arrogant Tian Chengbao, the superintendent of Guanneishan, Jiuxi and Tendong, was going down the mountain to snatch the baby!

The rapid improvement of Kuizhou's economic situation and the rapid accumulation of wealth have made Konoha man salivate.

At the same time, the rapid growth of Kuizhou's strength also gave Tian Chengbao a faint worry.

The Han people are not good at military affairs, but their economic methods are terrible.

If things continue like this, within two years at most, the surrounding Yi people will no longer be afraid of their own threats of force, and will definitely fall in love with that little Han Zhizhou.

Although the doll has not shown any unfriendly expression so far, ignored the two letters and made no further news. But now, among the doll group, a rumor has been secretly circulated that the incarnation of Zhige Alu is about to take advantage of it.

Pegasus with snow-white wings comes to rescue them!

He holds the thunderbolt in his left hand and the code of law in his right hand. There is kindness in one eye and fairness in the other.

He will weigh the sins in people's hearts one by one, give them equal weight, and sink the wicked into the abyss of hell!

We can't wait any longer! This evil trend must be suppressed! When did the despicable children dare to look at their leader with hateful eyes?!

After four months of high-intensity professional training, Kuizhou City's defense strength has been greatly improved.

The shooting level of the crossbowmen reached the passing mark of seven out of ten within seventy steps.

Of course, it's a stationary target.

War is both accidental and inevitable.

Su You seems to be passive, but in fact he has always taken the initiative.

Because time is on his side, and if he is given another year, he will be able to raise twice as many soldiers as he can now with just a thousand men.

He can gain more hearts and minds!

Zhang Zao, Zhang Qi, Zhang San and Liu Si have disappeared these days.

According to Su You, it doesn't really matter whether these kids are there or not. They were not soldiers to begin with, just engineers. Now that the big project has basically come to an end, they have been given leave to go to Meishan.

Su You never wanted to use war to solve problems. Whether it was in later generations or in this life, his knowledge system was good at construction rather than destruction.

But precisely because he is good at construction, he hates taking the fruits of other people's labor as his own.

He could not tolerate plundering with peace of mind and complacency. This was also the only motivation for him to carry out this battle.

The city wall of Kuizhou was perfected through everyone's efforts. Although after the cement pebbles were repaired, the city wall of earth and red sandstone became extremely ugly.

During this time, he often ran to this ugly city wall and looked upstream.

That's the direction from which Konoha's gangsters will come.

Adun Chihuo came to the city wall for routine patrol.

Seeing Su You sitting under the sunset, Adun smiled and said: "Great witch, you are too nervous."

Su You gave an ugly smile: "I have never been to the battlefield. Are all the children from the surrounding tribes sent back?"

Adun Chihuo sat next to him and looked at the mountains to the west: "Send it back. Yuan Zhen handled this matter personally. You are a kind-hearted wizard."

Su You said: "You are so kind, you have no eyes, you are the darling of the family."

Adun Chihuo said: "You are afraid of dead people. Not only are you afraid of the death of your own people, you are even afraid of the dead people of the other party."

Su You sighed: "Many people may die."

Adun Chihuo said contemptuously: "They asked for it."

Su You said: "Chihuo, how many people have you killed?"

Adun Chihuo opened his palms and looked at them: "It's not too many. I killed them with my own hands, maybe thirty or forty."
