Silver Overlord

"I don't know what kind of business, you can earn tens of millions of silver a year?" Zhong Hongzhang asked curiously, and Zhong Ruolan and He Treasurer also looked at Yan Liqiang, lest he miss every word that Yan Liqiang said.

"Of course it is a business that turns waste into treasure!" Yan Liqiang smiled calmly. "If the Zhong family believes me, Mr. Zhong will go back this time and let the Zhong family spare no effort to hoard wool and buy ranches to raise sheep, because in the future In the next few years, wool from the Northwest will become very popular. Those wools that are now useless will become exquisite and expensive fabrics. This business is really going to be done. It is not impossible to earn 10 million yuan a year! "

Zhong Hongzhang reacted suddenly, his eyes widened suddenly, "My son found a way to use wool for fabric?"

"Yes, I already know how to turn wool into fabric!" Yan Liqiang said calmly. In the past two months, Yan Liqiang has already succeeded, clarified all the steps, as long as the cheapest plant gray Made into soda ash, after a simple cleaning step, the degreasing problem of wool can be easily solved. After drying and carding, the degreased wool can be directly used for spinning like cotton, and it can be spun with ordinary spinning machines. The yarn efficiency is too low, so Yan Liqiang made another improvement on the spinning machine. The principle of the hand-cranked Jenny spinning machine is actually not complicated. Compared with ordinary workshops and home spinning machines, there is no manufacturing difficulty. A qualified carpenter is sufficient. After using Yan Liqiang's improved spinning machine, the spinning efficiency of a person can be increased by a total of sixteen times compared with the traditional spinning efficiency. The spun yarn can be improved by After the shuttle shuttle loom can weave cloth, the efficiency is also improved many times.

The three members of the Zhong family looked at Yan Liqiang in shock. Looking at the incredible eyes of the three, Yan Liqiang no longer said anything, but stood up. "Three follow me, I will take three to a place to see Just see ... "

Zhong Hongzhang, Zhong Ruolan, and any shopkeeper naturally stood up. Yan Liqiang took three people directly out of Yan's living room and walked towards Yan's backyard.

After taking a few steps, Zhong Hongzhang found that Yan Liqiang was going to take a few people to the backyard, and he reminded him specifically, "Yan Son, is this convenient ..."

"Haha, Mr. Zhong is assured that there are no female dependents in the backyard of the Yan family, and the backyard is where I live separately from my father. There are only a few servant servants!" Yan Liqiang said, walking non-stop, directly leading the three people through the corridor and the two A yard.

On the way, the more you walked inside, the more the three members of the Zhong family felt that the backyard was getting more and more stringent. The heavy door was guarded by the Yan family's guards. The idle people wanted to come in, basically may.

After spending two minutes in Yan's mansion, Yan Liqiang took the three to a large yard. The guards in this yard were even more rigorous. At the gate of the yard, there were six guards directly guarding the gate. It was locked until Yan Liqiang came to let the guard who opened the door open the courtyard door.

The yard is very spacious and very large. On one side of the yard are several rooms that can be occupied. The middle of the yard is empty. There are no flowers and plants. There are only flat floor tiles and wooden racks placed in the yard. It's like a steamer steaming buns. There are layers of dustpans stacked on top of each other. On the other side of the yard, there is a large room. There are similar machines and wooden wheels rotating in the room. sound.

As soon as they came here, the eyes of the three Zhonghongzhang were immediately attracted by the layers of dry things in the yard. What was hanging on the wooden frame was a white and soft thing, which looked far away, like Like cotton, Yan Liqiang took three people to a wooden frame, and from a dustpan drying on the wooden frame, stretched out his hand and grabbed a group of things in the air, and handed them to the three people in the Zhong family, "Mr. Zhong, Is there any shopkeeper in Ruolan who can recognize what this is? "

The things you hold in your hand are white and soft like clouds, and are dazzling white in the sun. The furry things you have in your hands have a special delicate feel, which is very different from cotton and has a more texture. Looking at what you see People who don't know will definitely find it difficult to associate it with the half-yellow and white in the impression of everyone, mixed with sand, sundries, feces, lanolin, and pieces of wool stuck to the sheep.

"This is ... wool?" Zhong Hongzhang asked in shock.

"Well, to be precise, sheep's wool. After a special treatment process, those sheep wools that could not be used for weaving have become something in Mr. Zhong's hands. Almost, as long as it goes through a simple process, basically, it can be used to weave things ... "

"In the room over there, but someone is weaving things with this thing?" Zhong Hongzhang asked, pointing to the large room not far away.

"Hahaha, since they have all come here, the three will follow me to see if you know!" Yan Liqiang and the three walked towards the large room. "This yard is a special experimental place I arranged at home. , I found six reliable couples in town, Xu Yizhong, let them live in this yard for two months, without contact with the outside, and explore the steps of using wool for textile as I instructed and required, except Apart from me, the three are here for the first time ... "

Yan Liqiang said that he had already reached the door of the big house, and gently pushed out the door of the room.

There were more than a dozen people in the room, including a man and a woman, and a supervisor at Yan's house. When they saw Yan Liqiang pushed in the door, all of them stopped the work at hand, and Yan Liqiang was polite.

Yan Liqiang smiled and greeted everyone, "Don't stop, just continue, I'll take someone to see ..."

Hearing Yan Liqiang's words, the person who had just stopped was immediately busy with his own work.

Looking at the things in the room, Zhong Hongzhang, who was just calmed down by the white wool, Zhong Ruolan, and He Treasurer, three eyes opened again, refreshing Sanguan. There are a lot of strange appliances in this big room. Those Several people have never seen an appliance. One of them is as large as a bed. It seems to be a spinning machine, but it is completely different from the spinning machine that several people have seen. The traditional spinning machine has the spindle placed horizontally. There is only one, and the spinning machine in front is much larger than the traditional spinning machine. The spinning spindles on the spinning machine are not placed horizontally, but are placed vertically. One spinning machine is on top of the spinning machine. There are sixteen spinning spindles. As the woman sitting in front of the spinning machine shakes the handle, the sixteen white threads hanging on the spinning machine spin up. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is like the most amazing thing in the world. Like magic ...

Just looking at the spinning machine, Zhong Hongzhang knew the value of the spinning machine, which is difficult to estimate. But this can increase the spinning efficiency of a person by sixteen times, not to mention anything else. One thing, that's amazing. A woman who can spin, shaking this, is enough to feed a family ...

On the other side, the shuttle loom made Zhong Hongzhang's eyes open all at once ...

"The appliances here are all made by myself. I have tried and improved them here, and they have been finalized. It happens to be a coincidence that, tomorrow, the first batch of spinning and weaving machines produced by the Manufacturing Bureau will be Will be sent to town, I will open a large workshop in the town to produce cloth, the fastest batch of wool cloth will be available in less than half a month ... "Yan Liqiang took three people around the room while walking around As he said.

For those who are indifferent to the four bodies and the five grains, they may not understand what it means, but they are so knowledgeable about Zhong Hongzhang and have been in the world for decades. For those of you, these things in front of him are just like pushing him to open a door to a new world. Compared with those in front of them, what is the small iron ore from their home? Nothing counts ...
