On a rainy day with nothing to do, Meiyi took Ilya and the others to the textile factory to have a look. What made him even more gratified was that several goblin craftsmen involved in the steam engine project did not leave because of the cold relationship between him and Liu Mei.

The fairy craftsman Mouton said disdainfully: "The Northern Fairy Forest is not a fairy forest for ordinary people like me, but a fairy forest for the powerful and their wives. I have a clean and spacious residence here and a decent income.

I don’t have to be bullied by the nobles, so why leave? Not only did I not leave, I also took over my wife and children.”

Another goblin craftsman Mu Shan said: "Those goblins who left must have lost their minds. I have a hunch that Black Crystal City will become the greatest city in the kingdom in the future, no less than the flower spirit and the true spirit. Great Lord,

You don’t have to be depressed.”

Caroline was stunned when she heard what was happening behind her. She quietly asked Evelin: "Are you people in Sombra City always so unruly when talking to the lord?"

Evelin spread her hands and said: "What kind of lord there is, what kind of people are there. I still remember the first time that Lord Meiyi went to our Hualing Duke's Mansion. That was when he was still a poor student, but he was very courageous.

, refused to kneel down to Mrs. Alicia in front of her, and even ate the fruit on the table without any courtesy. I just want to ask you if you accept it?"

Caroline was dumbfounded, raised her hands and said, "I accept it."

Under the leadership of the goblin craftsmen, Ai Qilu and the others came to the roaring factory and saw a scene that they would never forget. It was their first time and the first time in this world that they had touched the pulse of modern human civilization.

The inherent concepts of this world were instantly overturned.

Mouton led a few people through the roaring machines and introduced in detail all the processes from raw cotton to cloth, including cleaning, carding, strip rolling, combing, drawing, roving... putting on the machine, weaving, etc.

.Most of the processes have stable machine power, and production efficiency has been improved hundreds of times.

Thanks to the ingenuity of the goblin craftsmen and the full support of the mansion's spiritualists, there were no problems with the boiler's solidity and cylinder sealing that Meiyi was most worried about. After trial production, improvement, and debugging, the steam engine was quickly manufactured.

out and put into use.

Illya watched in disbelief as the white cloth spewed out like running water and rolled into huge white cloth embryos. Then she thought about the backward hand-looms and poor weavers she had seen before.

The woman took a deep breath.

Caroline was surprised: "What is this? Did you make it? How did you come up with it?"

Mouton shook his head and said: "It's not entirely made by us. This is called a steam engine. It is a design drawn by the great lord. The main part was made by us, with the participation of a large number of fire and water magicians in the mansion."

After a few people walked out of the factory, Caroline quietly asked Mouton, "Lord Meiyi must be very careful about you, right? If this kind of thing leaks out, it will be a huge loss to Black Crystal City."

Mouton said: "No. There are indeed people like that who secretly copied a design and then went to other districts, intending to sell it at a high price. But no lord believed in the value of such a thing.

The lord thought they were liars, so he beat them up and dared to go out."

Ai Qilu asked Mei Yi some technical questions, and Mei Yi said unhappily: "Ai Luoluo, this is not your business. Don't forget your position in anything you do. What you will do in the future is

Provide a sufficiently relaxed environment and favorable conditions for these craftsmen, and rely on them instead of interfering in technical matters."

Ai Qilu nodded and said, "Teacher, I understand."

Several people went to the printing and dyeing factory next door. Seeing the brightly colored and richly colored cloths, the girls became excited - what girl doesn't love beauty? They were already imagining the clothes made of these cloths.

Beautiful clothes look good on me.

Meiyi had learned many color schemes in chemistry classes in his previous life, so it was not difficult for him to improve the color matching process.

After that, they went to the garment factory. In the design department here, they saw many art graduates from Hualing and Zhenling. Some of them were quietly copying paintings, some were immersed in design, and some were working on clothing.

The board master communicates the details carefully.

Meiyi said: "Innovation can produce progress, and division of labor can produce efficiency. Those who design should concentrate on designing, those who make boards should concentrate on dressing up, and those who produce should concentrate on making. Everyone has his or her own value. This is true for factories, and so is the country.

The nobles cannot govern the country well by just talking, and the kingdom needs a large number of technical talents."

"Yes, teacher, I understand." Ai Qilu said.

As soon as those designers heard Mei Yi's voice, they all came over happily. The goblin designer Yue Hua complained: "Your Majesty, we wanted to be your teacher and learn painting from you, but you didn't agree.

No more students are accepted. Why are they accepted again?"

Elf designer Mei Li looked at Ai Qilu, who was extremely beautiful and had a heroic look on her face, and teased: "My lord, are you too partial? Why can she just stay with you and accept your words and deeds? Just

Because it’s beautiful?”

Meiyi said depressedly: "Am I still partial? The paintings you are copying are all genuine originals that I spent a lot of money to collect from all over the kingdom. I also painted many paintings myself and gave them to you. I have told you frankly,

My painting skills are average, it's just my technique that you haven't seen before. You are all better at painting than me now."

After chatting for a while, Yuehua led Meiyi and others into the exhibition hall.

As soon as Ai Qilu and others walked in, they felt they couldn't breathe. The various clothes on display were so beautiful that they could satisfy all the girls' fantasies about beautiful clothes.

Yuehua said: "Everyone, some of these costumes are restored based on the paintings of various eras collected by the great lord, some are improvements to existing costumes, and many of them are designed by us from scratch."

Illya wandered among them, and the girl's heart, which had been suppressed by the boring and rigid life in the temple for a long time, completely burst out.

She has always been very careless about what she wears. She wears a white shirt with a red skirt or a black skirt, or a black dress. She has a strong ascetic style. She is used to it. Now she can't help but want to change into it.

Take a look at these clothes.

Even Ai Qilu, who had never lacked anything since she was a child, wanted to take all these beautiful clothes home.

She said: "Teacher, it seems that all the women's clothes here are?"

Meiyi explained: "Women make money easily. This has been the case since ancient times."

“What are these clothes designed to do?”

"Make money, Miss. After the New Year, when the spring clothes are on the market, Black Crystal City will go to Zhenling and Hualing to hold a trade fair. I hope to make a lot of money. The residents of the consular district earn wages, and the factory makes money.

The lord's mansion collects taxes and everyone is happy."

Seeing Illya being addicted to it and unable to extricate herself, Meiyi said: "Ms. Meilin, if you like it, you can ask Yuehua and the others to help you measure the data, and then they will prepare it for you and send it to the mansion."

Illya's eyes widened when she saw the price, and then she became discouraged and thought to herself: This kind of thing is still too gorgeous for me, so I'd better make money from the noble ladies of Zhenling and Hualing.

She turned around and saw Yuehua and Mei Li measuring Evelin, Ai Qilu and Caroline. She felt a little envious and jealous. Evelin said: "Mary, don't you choose a few pieces? It's rare to buy a big one."

The lord promised to pay the bill for the female staff of the mansion as a New Year's gift."
