Chapter 87

After Qin Xiangru got these drawings, she did not take them seriously at the first time, thinking that Lu Jianguo was here to show off his painting skills again.

Therefore, I only taught the servants to place these drawings on the table next to me.

The thick stack of drawings really made her a little curious. She looked at the first picture above a few steps away.

“Jenny spinning machine.”

A strange name, underneath a strange name is a strange machine.

Curiosity drove her to pick up the stack of drawings.

She only turned two pages and the storm was already stirring up in her heart.

"Hurry, go and invite Mr. Lu back!" She held the drawings in one hand and the hem of the skirt in the other, and hurriedly chased out the guard and shouted at the servant just now.

"Yes, Miss."

"Go quickly!"

The clerk hurried to the gate, and Lu Jianguo was already missing.

He had to come back truthfully to report.

"Miss, Manager Lu has already gone back. Do you want me to go to the mansion to invite him?"

At this time, Qin Xiangru had already fallen into a state of fascination, because the design of this machine was really incredible.

Although it was the first time she had seen such a machine, based on her intuition, this machine is extremely feasible after it was manufactured.

She kept flipping through the drawings, not noticing that there was a servant standing beside her.

The servants of the Qin family also knew the eldest lady's personality very well, and knew that if she interrupted her while she was thinking, she would definitely be scolded, so the servant could only stand aside and wait quietly.

Qin Xiangru has been learning to manage family business with her father since she was a child. She clearly knows that spinning is a very difficult technical job, requiring weavers to be skillful and have enough patience.

Even after rigorous training, each person can only spin up one yarn at a time.

Later, a worker in the weaving workshop invented a hand-rotating spinning machine, which greatly improved the textile efficiency. His father not only rewarded him with a large sum of money, but also promoted the weaving worker to the general manager of the weaving workshop.

But even so, this hand-rotated spinning machine can only be filled with one spindle, and only one yarn can be planted at a time.

The machine designed by Lu Jianguo is equipped with a total of twenty vertical spindles, divided into two layers, arranged in parallel, driven by the spinning wheel on the far right.

As long as the spinning wheel is turned, twenty spindles can be run at the same time, which means that twenty yarns can be woven at the same time. (The drawings drawn by Lu Jianguo are improved Jenny spinning machines)

This means that the production efficiency has been increased by twenty times and greatly reduces labor costs.

After Qin Xiangru read these drawings, her mood was no longer just described as excitement. She was so shocked that she couldn't speak.

Because this is simply a great invention that is epoch-making.

"Where is Mr. Lu?" Qin Xiangru remembered that she had just asked her servant to go outside to invite Lu Jianguo.

"Shopkeeper Lu has already gone back. Miss, do I need to go to his house to invite him?"

Qin Xiangru looked outside and it was already dark at any time.

"No need, don't invite him today." Qin Xiangru thought for a while: "You are going to the weaving workshop to invite General Manager Zhang and General Manager Li to the mansion, and I said I have something important to discuss with them."

"yes."

"In addition, you can ask the supervisors to call Wang Carpenter Wang in the weaving workshop, and ask Wang Carpenter Wang to bring a few more apprentices and prepare all the wood to come to the mansion."

"yes."

"Go and go back quickly, they must all come to the mansion tonight."

"I understand, Miss, I'll go now."

Qin Xiangru couldn't wait to see the finished product of the spinning machine. She was preparing to let the carpenter start work overnight and create samples of the spinning machine as quickly as possible.

About half an hour later, the two general managers of the weaving workshop came to the mansion.

Qin Xiangru had been waiting for the two of them in the living room for more than a while.

As soon as the two managers met, they asked, "What big thing happened? Let us come overnight."

Qin Xiangru said solemnly: "Mr. Zhang, Mr. Li, you are both old people from my Qin family and I am the ones I trust the most. Today I want to show you something. I hope you will not mention it to anyone after you have read it."

"Don't worry, Miss, we will follow your instructions."

Then, Qin Xiangru spread the complete set of drawings of Jenny spinning machine on the desktop in order.

The two managers' eyes widened the more they looked, and they almost almost fell to the ground when they saw it.

"Miss, who did these pictures come from?" General Manager Zhang pointed to the drawings on the table and asked in shock.

Manager Li also looked at Qin Xiangru.

"It's the shopkeeper Lu who runs a restaurant." Qin Xiangru said: "He personally delivered these pictures this afternoon, but I didn't invite him into the mansion at that time, so he left the drawings."

Mr. Li said: "It was sent by Manager Lu, but it may not mean that these pictures were written by him."

"Not bad." Manager Zhang also said: "Those who can draw these pictures must be old people who have been immersed in the textile industry for many years, otherwise it would be difficult to have such exquisite and profound understanding. Manager Lu started his career in a restaurant and was very young. I think these pictures should not be drawn by him by himself, and there may be other experts behind him."

"What you both said makes sense." Qin Xiangru replied: "I thought so at first, but then I carefully compared the handwriting. These drawings were indeed drawn by Manager Lu personally, and they were not wrong at all."

She took out the order Lu Jianguo had signed in the tailoring shop, and took out the spring appreciation picture that Lu Jianguo drew on the spot on the day of the Spring Festival. She put the first two words with the words Jenny spinning machine together to identify them together.

Lu Jianguo's own style characteristics are too obvious, so you can tell at a glance that these three things were written by one person.

Mr. Li said: "Awesome, I didn't expect that the young shopkeeper Lu was actually a genius!"

"I have worked hard in the manufacturing bureau for half my life. All my achievements together are not as good as these pictures of Manager Lu." Mr. Zhang said: "Miss, this person is extremely talented. It is hard for anyone in the world to compete with him. No matter what, we must find a way to keep such a person."

"That's right." General Manager Li said again: "I heard that this person had fought with Su Baoqing before. Su Baoqing had no choice but to deal with him several times. And no matter how Su Baoqing squeezed him, his restaurant business was getting bigger and bigger. It can be seen that he is also very capable in business management. We must repair such a person with him no matter what."

"It's true." Qin Xiangru smiled bitterly, "I wanted to win him over at first, and I also proposed to buy his restaurant, but he refused."

Mr. Zhang said: "Miss, such a talented person will never easily agree to rely on others unless he has to."

Manager Li also said: "Yes, if he can design such a machine, he cannot look at him from the perspective of ordinary people."

"I naturally understand this principle." Qin Xiangru said: "But who can imagine that he can have such great ability? I always thought that he was a ignorant person, so when he visited this afternoon, I told him to go back and forth wherever he went. This may have offended him."

Both managers were silent, yes, if he didn't take action, who would know that he could design such an amazing machine?
