Chapter 20 Spark
"Oh, so much money, Gao Hongyun is willing to invest a lot of money."
As soon as Gao Hongyun and Xue Shi left, Zhao Yuyan came over.
She walked up and looked at the silver ingots in the box one by one. She kept shaking her head.
"These are all the money and cream of Jingzhou. In a panic, he took out an extra 200,000 taels so easily, which shows that he has greedy for the silver in the treasury." Liu Jun hammered the wood hard.
"This time, by accident, it is always a good thing to let him spit out something, but you don't have to worry. If you defeat him and his gang members in the future, the greedy silver will come back." He glanced at the box of silver and asked, "Are you going to let him go like this?"
"Of course not. The child told him that he would discuss with his mother."
"The child will ask his servant to speak later, saying that the child had a big fight with his mother. He was exempted from the death penalty of Gao Hongyun, but he was not good at employing the person and had to punish him. He took the opportunity to cut off his title of military officer in the royal palace."
"Without the right to dispatch troops, he could no longer reach into the army. As for the people he had already planted, the child would find a way to get rid of them." Liu Jun said.
When he was working, he was not idle and kept thinking about how to deal with Gao Hongyun.
"Wang'er has really grown up." Zhao Yuyan looked happy
After Liu Jun repented, he gave her too many surprises.
She thought Liu Jun needed her assistance, but now it seems that she is too worried.
He put his palms together and said for a while that thanked the Buddha and the like. Zhao Yuyan didn't ask why Liu Jun did carpenter work and turned around and left.
Thinking of something, she turned around and said, "By the way, those four foxes are dead. In the future, someone will have to take care of you to wash and dress, and make some miscellaneous items for you in the room to concentrate on government affairs. Tang Zhou has a sister, and the mother has just gone to see her, which is great."
Liu Jun opened his mouth and wanted to refuse, but he thought that he was a prince now.
If there is no maid around you, you will be laughed at by outsiders if you are not serving him.
Furthermore, ancient life was indeed not as convenient as modern.
The water for washing and drinking needs to be taken from the well.
It has to be burned if you get it. It is also troublesome to wear a piece of clothing. If you do everything big and big, you will indeed waste a lot of time.
And for him, time is precious now.
"Hu Wei said that Tang Zhou had a sister. Tang Zhou had a good personality and his sister must be a proper person. What is her name?" Liu Jun asked.
"Her name is interesting, it's Tangyuan." Zhao Yuyan couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckled.
"..." Liu Jun was speechless, but it was a pretty cute name.
Stop laughing, Zhao Yuyan suddenly turned solemn and said coldly: "Mother's wife ordered Tangyuan to serve you, you must not act willfully. Tangzhou is a strong man. If you treat him with kindness, he will sacrifice his life to repay him. If you let him down, you are afraid that he will fight desperately."
"The boy knows."
Liu Jun rolled his eyes. He was not the little prince's breeding pig. He couldn't move when he saw his mother.
After giving another instructions, Zhao Yuyan turned around and went back.
Now she was very at ease and was relieved that Liu Jun would do what she was going to do. She only helped to take care of the chores in the palace so that he could not worry about anything else.
Liu Jun is still immersed in the carpenter's work.
For him, Jingzhou's current dilemma can only be broken through by technology.
After all, technology is the primary productivity, not empty talk.
So after temporarily suppressing Gao Hongyun, he planned to spend more time improving the various technologies in Jingzhou Craftsmanship Department.
Although Gong Ming has some background, he is still far behind receiving contemporary formal education.
There is a huge difference between being brutal and being led by himself.
After two days of busy schedule, the Jenny-style textile machine was completed at noon on the third day, which was one and a half less than the original plan.
"Prince, the cotton is here." Hu Wei held a bamboo basket and placed it in front of Liu Jun.
After wiping the sweat, Liu Jun looked at the spinning machine half a person tall, like a bed frame, and showed a satisfied smile.
Unlike the spinning machine where the Darong Dynasty only had one horizontal spindle, the spindles of the Jenny-type spinning machine were vertical, with eighty such spindles.
There are two rows of parallel wooden beams at the tail and middle of the vertical wooden frame.
There are many hooked sticks in the upper part of the wooden beams. Below the sticks are embedded in the round hole of the wooden beam, and the upper part is empty. These sticks are called ingot rods.
In the middle of the two rows of wooden beams is a wooden roller, with ropes surrounding the lower part of the spindle rod, and the roller and the hand-cranked large rotor are connected by hemp rope.
Shake the large rotor, rotate the drum, and drive the ingot rod to rotate.
The spindle is a barrel-shaped one and can be put on the spindle rod. The spindle rotates and the spindle rotates.
"Bring it!"
The vertical spinning machine is completed, but it depends on the effect, so he is ready to spin in person.
The cotton seeds were taken out of the bamboo basket, and Liu Jun held a piece of ready-made yarn in his hand to hook the hook bent downwards of the upper part of the spindle rod.
He then caught the cotton and yarn and twisted it in his hand, and the cotton was fixed by the spindle hook and hand.
At this time, he slammed the large rotor and drove the roller to rotate.
The yarn pulls the cotton and continuously stretches into threads.
After completing this step, he no longer turned the wheel. Once the force was loosened, the yarn broke away from the hook and fell onto the spindle.
At the front end of the spinning machine, there is also a small car that can move forward and backward.
There are grooves under the small carriage, embedded on the longitudinal wooden beams on both sides of the spinning machine.
There are two pressing plates on the car. After being pulled up, it can pass through the rovings and press down on the cotton after being put down.
Liu Jun pressed the cotton in his hand with a pressing plate, and repeated the previous movement seventy-nine times before all the spindles were started to work.
All he had to do was to keep shaking the wheel and adding cotton while keeping it on.
"This is the first time that the old man has made such a magical thing after living for so many years."
The old man among the carpenters had tears in his eyes and was very excited.
Hu Wei was already stunned, and the servants passing by the royal palace also stopped and stared at Liu Jun's spinning in a daze.
The sun is gradually falling, the cotton in the bamboo basket is getting less and less, and the cotton thread is wrapped around the spindle of the spindle.
The cotton was exhausted, and Liu Jun was slightly exhausted, but his spirit was a hundred times refreshed.
"You daughters are the most proficient in female red. Let's see how the cotton thread I spun?" Liu Jun took down a spindle and handed it to a maid who was stunned to watch the fun.
His face turned slightly red, and the maid took the spindle and pulled a piece of cotton thread and looked at it carefully.
"This cotton thread is really good, thinner than what my mother spun. If we use this cotton thread to weave, the fabric woven is definitely the best." The maid looked surprised.
After hearing this, Liu Jun felt relieved, and the busyness these days was not in vain.
With this efficient spinning machine, Jingzhou finally has a stable business that can make a profit without losing money.
Next, he wanted to mass-produce spinning machines and recruit people who fled south to enter the spinning workshop.
