    Shisanniang put forward the idea of ??improving the cotton binding machine, which made Yang Yi very emotional. He immediately decided to set up a special scientific research institution in the trading company. He would give them some ideas and let this institution conduct research and development. With the financial resources of the trading company as the backing, sooner or later,  This institution can become an integration and production center for the world's most advanced technologies.

    Of course, these can be done slowly, but my wife cannot neglect her. She must praise her and praise her hard. This is the top priority of Yang Daguan.

    "Madam, you are indeed Huizhilanxin and Bingxue is smart. With your improvement, the efficiency of this cotton binding machine will definitely increase exponentially. Madam, your improvement will definitely benefit thousands of households, say tens of thousands of households.  It is not too much to be born a Buddha;

    Madam, you are so great, the greatest person in the world!  With a wife like this, what else can a husband ask for? He is really Hess, madam, be gentle, be gentle, what you say to your husband is the truth. If you don't believe me, ask Qing Niang, ask Bi'er, ask  Xian'er, ask Adela, whoever you want"

    ?????? Han Bier and the others were very cooperative and took every opportunity to praise Thirteenth, which made Thirteenth Mother a little embarrassed;

    She rolled her eyes at her official, gently loosened her jade fingers, and then changed the subject: "The official said that such an improvement in my concubine would benefit thousands of households, but did not mention saving costs for the trading company. Does the official think that such an improvement is still worthwhile?"  It¡¯s not satisfactory, is it?¡±

    ¡°It is definitely not an exaggeration to say that Thirteenth Niang is smart, no, it was immediately confirmed;

    Yang Yi really feels that this improvement of Thirteen Niangs will definitely be of great benefit to each household, especially for the large-scale cotton-tying factories of trading companies.  This improvement is not enough, but of course he will not say this.  Otherwise, the words he praised his wife just now would appear to be insincere.

    He immediately clarified: "Madam, I have misunderstood. The business of trading companies is to make money. It is incomparable to the blessings of the people in the world and is completely negligible. That's why I did not mention the benefits that trading companies gained from this."

    "Really?" Thirteenth Niang gently raised her sleeves, and a glimmer of cold light flashed away. Along with her gentle and elegant smile, Yang Daguan's feet were trembling.

    "Madam, madamdon't say goodbye, what I say to my husband is all true, all true" Yang Daguan was like a weak woman who was about to be violated by a gangster.  Holding his vitals tightly, he stepped back step by step with a timid look on his face.

    It made Qing Niang and the others laugh so much that they all bent their waists. Zhenzi was the most exaggerated, laughing so hard that tears came out, and the waves in his chest were thrilling.

    Thirteenth Niang was ashamed and angry. She couldn't help but spat at him: "Guardians, please stop making mischief. If you look like this, you would think I am a shrew if you don't know. Huh, you are the only one who can make mischief."

    "No, no, no, I am the most virtuous wife in the world, and for my husband"

    "Humph. You still said that." Thirteenth Niang was anxious. Everyone was watching, and she was so anxious that she stamped her feet.  She wears a mink fur coat and eight Hunan skirts.  Pingping Tingting, her beauty is no worse than Adela and other beauties selected by this country.  This coquettish and angry girlish attitude is really eye-catching.

    Well, changing the topic is more effective. After thinking about it, Thirteenth Niang said with a straight face: "The official must have thought of other ideas. Please tell me how to improve this cotton binding machine according to your wishes."

    "Between husband and wife, it is inevitable to make some small jokes, but it must be stopped in moderation, otherwise the thirteenth mother will really lose face in front of the other girls.

    Yang Yi also said seriously: "Madam, your improvement plan has indeed given me some inspiration. This foot-operated cotton binding machine is very suitable for small households. However, in the future, the trading company will build a large cotton binding factory.  In terms of labor, the less the better, of course. Have you ever seen a stone mill?"

    "Yeah, I understand!" When talking about these things, Thirteenth Niang suddenly forgot that she was the matron of the family and said in surprise, "The official said that animal power is used to drive the two circular shafts to rotate continuously.  Well, this is not difficult to do. In this way, we can make these two circular shafts several times larger and longer, allowing multiple people to stuff cotton into them at the same time, or allowing two donkeys and horses to drive them at the same time.  Multiple axes rotate, so the efficiency will be higher. Officer, you are too"

    Yang Yi quickly clarified: "Madam, this is entirely the inspiration you gave me, and things like two donkeys turning with multiple axes at the same time, my husband really didn't expect that this is all Madam's whim.  Think about it, I don¡¯t dare to take credit for my husband.¡±

    Thirteenth Niang has already been immersed in the imagination of improving the cotton tying machine. Regardless of what he said, Yang Yi reminded again: "Madam, after all, we need fodder to maintain a healthy mouth. Is there any way to save costs?"

    "What the official means is" Thirteenth Niang was a little confused.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Yang Daguan said in a leisurely manner: "We are married because of the lotus."

    "There are apricots and plum blossoms." NextQing Niang listened carefully and blurted out the answer. Thirteen Niang looked at her with a smile, and Qing Niang's face suddenly turned red.

    This couplet was made with Yang Yi when she first came to Yang's house and saw the fountain in Yang's house. Now this couplet is still engraved on the rockery of the fountain pool in the front yard. This is the most beautiful thing for Qing Niang.  One of the memories.

    ??????????????? And because this pair of couples contains another meaning of "how did you get married, fortunately, you don't need a matchmaker", how could she not be extremely embarrassed if she said it in front of everyone.

    Yang Yi made no secret of his love for her. Part of the reason for this was probably because he used to dote on her as a younger sister when she was young. He put his arms around Qingniang's shoulders and said with a smile: "Qingniang, don't be shy, let's  It¡¯s just that they are lucky enough not to need a matchmaker, so what, they can laugh whenever they want.¡±

    It's okay if he didn't say it. As soon as the words came out, Qing Niang was even too embarrassed to raise her head. Thirteen Niang hugged her over, patted her pretty buttocks gently and said with a smile: "Unconsciously, our Qing Niang  She has grown into a big girl, and my sister is also old.¡±

    "Sister Qing'er is not old."

    In the past, when Qingniang was still young, the Thirteenth Niang would mostly take care of her, whether in Beijing or in Huanzhou. Even doing things like combing her hair and washing her face, the Thirteenth Niang would often help Qingniang with her own hands;

    Qingniang is as picturesque as a poem, and she is loved and loved in every way. The relationship between Thirteenth Niang and her is similar to that of biological sisters. Now everyone has changed their name to Mrs. Thirteenth Niang. Only Qingniang still calls her Sister Qing'er as always.  And it is foreseeable that he will be called that for the rest of his life.

    Yang Yi said happily: "My wife is indeed immortal. As a husband, I"

    "Stop talking nonsense, huh" Thirteenth Niang rolled her eyes at him again.  Then he continued, "I understand. What the official means is that the waterwheel can be used to rotate the circular axis of the cotton binding machine, so that even the donkeys and horses are saved, right?"

    Yang Yi laughed and said: "Madam, you are really smart as ice and snow. You also have this spinning wheel. Madam, please take a look."

    Yang Yi walked to the spinning wheel as he spoke. In fact, the spinning wheel is not unique to the Li people. As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, spinning wheels appeared in the Central Plains. The structure of the spinning wheel is also very simple.  It consists of three parts: twisting and winding, transmission and prime mover. The prime mover is a large round wheel similar to a hand-operated spinning wheel. The axle is equipped with a crank, which requires a dedicated person to shake it by hand. There are also foot-operated ones.

    Yang Yi said: "Madam, this spinning wheel, like the cotton binding machine, relies on rotation to work, so it can also be changed to animal power or water power. This matter is very important. If Madam is willing, try to improve it.  Look, well, I decided. The improved spinning wheel is called Su Qing spinning wheel."

    The Thirteenth Niang smiled and said: "Official, you probably haven't seen the difference between this spinning wheel and the spinning wheel here, right?"

    ¡°Uh¡­ well, sir, let me take a look.¡±

    In fact, Yang Yi doesn¡¯t know much about the spinning wheels currently used by the Song Dynasty.  Naturally, I didn't see any difference between this spinning wheel brought back from Hainan and other spinning wheels.  He looked for a long time but couldn't see anything.

    Thirteenth Niang stepped forward and explained to him: "Guardian, we used to use spinning wheels. Whether it was a hand-operated spinning wheel or a pedal-operated spinning wheel. It could only spin one yarn at a time, but this spinning wheel in front of me  But it is different, it can spin three yarns at a time, which means it is three times more efficient than the spinning wheel we used before."

    In the era of mechanization in later generations, many people have no idea what specific processes are required to weave a piece of cloth. To put it simply with cotton, after the cotton is dried, the cotton must be removed with a cotton tie machine and then a cotton slingshot.  After fluffing the cotton, the cotton becomes fluffy, but it is still short fibers that are disordered vertically and horizontally. This requires a spinning wheel to spin it into fine yarns. After spinning into fine yarns, it can be put on the loom to be woven.  cloth.

    The spinning process is no easier than weaving. It has always been a key link in restricting cloth production. In the past, the spinning wheel could only spin one yarn at a time. Now this pedal-operated spinning wheel brought back from Hainan can spin out one piece of yarn at a time.  Spinning three yarns means that the spinning sequence can be sped up three times.  This is definitely an amazing invention.

    Yang Yilai became energetic. As far as he knew, the later British spinning Jenny could spin eight threads at a time, so it was hailed as a symbol of the first industrial revolution.

    "It's a pity that Yang Yi has only heard of Jenny Textile Machine and doesn't know its structure and working principle.

    Now a spinning wheel that can spin three threads at a time has finally appeared in the Song Dynasty. This makes Yang Yi very excited. He believes that the wisdom of the Chinese people is no worse than that of other countries. As long as manpower is invested in continuous research, a spinning wheel that can spin three threads at a time can be invented today.  In the future, we will surely be able to invent a spinning wheel that can spin eight threads at a time, or even more threads.

    He immediately asked: "Madam, please stop playing with that clock. First, study this spinning wheel and see if you can invent something."??comes with a spinning wheel to spin more yarn.  "

    Thirteenth Niang smiled and said: "Guardian, even if someone invented it, it would be of no use. Don't fool me with your words about benefiting the people of the world. This thing is useful for your business, but it won't do much to change the people."  The usefulness, for ordinary people, it doesn¡¯t make much difference whether they spin one thread at a time or three threads at a time, and they don¡¯t have that many threads to spin.¡±

    This witch!  Yang Yi couldn't help but sigh secretly.

    "Madam, let's not talk about the common people in the world, let's talk about it for our family. Now we have sold these three items for 500,000 yuan. If madam can develop a spinning wheel that can spin more threads at a time, we can sell it to trading companies.  It would be nice to make a million dollars."

    "Hehe, that's pretty much it. If I develop it, you can't give it away for free. I don't have the money to buy pearl hairpins and noodles."

    No money to buy Zhuchaitou Noodles?  Oh my God!  Yang Daguan was instantly stunned by the thunder.
