Martin and I are very good. Martin has found a stable job as a tavern clerk, very close to me. The tavern owner is an acquaintance of Mr. Fast, so you don’t have to worry. The tavern’s salary is one silver coin per week, and the salary will be increased in the future.
I know that you and Uncle Hollin have always secretly loved Martin, and I think Martin will also save this money and bring it back to you.
I live in the attic next to the tavern. There is a spinning mill downstairs. The creaking of the spinning wheel every day during the day reminds me of you. Although you have never spun yarn, Uncle Huolin is doing the sewing and mending of clothes.
Breeze City has inspired me. I am currently improving the spinning wheel. Once successful, the spinning speed will be several times faster than now. I am going to call it Susan Spinning Machine to thank you for your help. You have received this letter
By then, its name should have been known to many people.
Next is what Martin wants to say to you:
That girl named Lenna is so beautiful. If I give her all the money and work like a cow like a cow and a horse like Uncle Huolin did, can I make her my wife? What is Annan writing? What message is he leaving for his family? Who is Aunt Susan?
?
These are the words Martin leaves for you.
Don’t worry about us. After some time, after the matter in Breeze City is resolved, Martin and I will go back to visit you.】
Put the letter paper into an envelope, coat it with fire paint, and give it to Soruman Bronzebeard. She will give it to Mr. Fast the next time she delivers wine to Ping Lin Town.
As for why it is called Susan spinning machine instead of Holling spinning machine... the public is more likely to accept women weaving and men farming.
Just like people are more willing to believe that a bandit is called "The Beheader" than a name like Olivier Saint Gapar.
Andrew Luna set aside an open space in the warehouse for Annan and the goblins to make a Susan spinning machine. The spinning wheel was ready-made: Annan borrowed 5 gold coins from Andrew Luna and bought the second-hand machine from downstairs for 3 gold coins.
Modify the spinning wheel for the goblin, and buy the spindles and tools for 2 gold coins.
This is a necessary price.
However, Annan found that everyone he knew seemed to have been lent money by him...
In the afternoon, Dorai squatted in front of the spinning wheel that was much taller than it, and was loading the yarn wheel.
People in this world are generally stronger than those on Earth, so Annan, the first Susan spinning machine, was increased to ten spindles, which is ten times more efficient.
Whether it is erecting the spindle or making the structure of the spinning wheel more complicated, it is not difficult and can be completed by a carpenter. Dorai feels that this job is too simple, so he thinks this is an opportunity given by Annan to the gnome, and he is even more grateful.
Annan is different from other humans. He has no prejudice, no arrogance, and no mercy.
As a smart goblin, Dorai decided to complete the spinning wheel with his own hands and do it better...
"Um...can you help me? I can't move it."
The biggest problem that prevents goblins from completing the spinning wheel independently is their lack of strength.
The serious Dole lost the cowardice of the goblin, and Annan squatted beside him, occasionally handing over tools and watching Susan's spinning machine gradually take shape.
After assembling the spindle and grinding wheel on the spinning wheel, Annan tried it temporarily. It was a little difficult to rotate the yarn wheel, and he applied some pine oil to lubricate it. After a little effort to get the ten spindles to rotate at the same time, Annan completed the replica in this world.
’s second work.
"I'll call them over!"
Annan ran to the next door pub and found three guys gathered around the wine table in the lobby.
"Don't you have anything serious to do?" Annan seemed to have not seen them do anything.
"My property is here." Andrew Luna pointed to his feet.
"There is no commission suitable for me." Michael, who was slightly tipsy, said lazily.
Annan looked at Soruman Bronzebeard who had to run around the tavern.
"Humans don't like me, so I tell my men to do it." The female dwarf said.
Annan had no choice but to announce: "The Susan spinning machine is ready."
Taking them and Martin, who was joining in the fun, to the warehouse, Annan demonstrated the operation in person, and then the three people who found it novel tried it one after another.
When the ten spindles rotated together and the slender yarn stretched out from the other end, the special and beautiful law and rhythm made them stare at the operation of the spinning wheel.
When the gears called machinery turned, no one realized what the scene in front of them represented.
"Why has no one thought of such a simple thing?" Michael felt puzzled. He ignored the proud goblin and asked Annan: "Then what are you going to do next?"
"Pricing?"
A brand new spinning wheel costs about 5 gold coins, the best spinning wheel currently is 8 gold coins, and a Susan spinning machine with ten spindles seems to cost 40 gold coins.
But the account cannot be calculated like this. There are people who spend 5 gold coins to buy a spinning wheel or a second-hand spinning wheel, but no one spends 80 gold coins to buy a spinning wheel. Even if the spinning wheel has 10 spindles.
Moreover, the quality of cotton yarn spun by a spinning wheel with 10 spindles is not as good as that of the best spinning wheel.
"I think it should be 10 silver coins." Martin said and stretched out his hand towards the spinning wheel, but was blocked by Soruman Bronzebeard.
You can always count on dwarves.
"Why don't you ask the owner of the spinning mill downstairs?"
"I'm going to call him," Andrew Luna said.
The landlord quickly brought the owner of the spinning mill. The machine that was about to be completed was covered with gray cloth.
Annan asked him: "If there was a spinning machine that was ten times faster than the spinning machine downstairs, how many gold coins would you be willing to spend to buy it?"
"Uh... I won't buy one."
"Why?"
The spinning mill owner said honestly: "Because I already have ten spinning machines."
"But it can be controlled by one person."
"But it only saves money on hiring spinners. Well...with all due respect, these cotton yarns are enough for me to sell."
The owner of the spinning factory euphemistically said that many factories and families still use poorer spinning wheels or even hand-spinning. People who have dozens of gold coins to buy a spinning wheel do not need to buy a spinning wheel——
If you want to sell Susan spinning machines, you should choose those big spinning mills. Obviously, cooperation with the wine lady is inevitable.
"Just say a suitable price." Andrew Luna waved his hand.
"I think...30 gold coins is a suitable price."
After getting the result, Andrew Luna left with the spinning mill owner. He frequently looked back and stared at the outline under the gray cloth, still curious about what a 10-times-efficiency spinning wheel would look like. It didn't look as big as ten spinning wheels.
Andrew Luna came back, stared at the spinning wheel with the gray cloth lifted, and suddenly sighed: "This machine of yours will make many people lose their jobs."
Annan couldn't answer because the same thing happened to the Spinning Jenny in history.
"I don't blame you." Andrew Luna whispered an old proverb: "The fleet of goods brings the merchants out of work..."
"How long will it take to complete it?" the female dwarf asked?
"Before the next sunrise!" It was finally his turn to speak, Dole puffed up his chest.
