Black Iron Crown

Chapter 430: The Birth of Wool Cloth

December 22nd, twenty-five years of the Empire.

After the tournament was successfully completed and the royal family reached an agreement, the lords left the cold northern border and returned to their own territories.

At the same time, Leiner's refugee station is also playing its most useful role, with six hundred civilians joining Leiner's territory every month.

Under the leadership of officials one by one, they built their own houses and cultivated land.

Their strength and hard work amazed many, while no one knew where they came from.

Although they claim to be from a distant place, their language activity is no different from that of the Ridkar.

Since Leiner left, the Migrant Terrace has contributed more than 6,000 residents to him, and added at least 30 villages to him.

And it is worth mentioning that more and more officials emerged from the academy and were assigned to various villages by Reiner for management.

And in the current winter, the residents began to weave in their rooms with a small portion of sisal and flax harvested last year because it was still a slack period.

The woven cloth will be used as their clothing next year, or if there is a surplus, it will be sold.

At the same time, in the main castle of Mecaron City.

Two skillful maids are busy with Yu Ge's weird tools, and they seem to be weaving.

At the same time, the things in their hands were all white, looking like wool, but much cleaner than wool.

Reiner sat on a chair and looked at the fabric they spun, stretched out his hand and stroked it, feeling the more delicate texture than linen, and an uncontrollable smile appeared on his face.

Yes, the tool in the hands of these two maids is the flying shuttle, the textile artifact that Leiner exchanged from the system.

Although it is still far behind the Jenny machine in terms of efficiency, compared with the current hand-weaving method, the efficiency has been increased by dozens of times, and because wool is used for weaving, the quality and thermal performance are also better than linen. Much better.

The most important of these is the efficiency of the weaving.

Originally, weaving required two people to work together to weave more than one meter of fabric in three days.

With the help of the shuttle, two meters of fabric can be spun in one day, which is definitely a major leap in weaving speed.

"Very good! After a while, you all go to Mrs. Farrant's place to receive a silver coin each!" Leiner looked at the woolen cloth in his hand with joy, and even gave out a silver coin as a reward.

On the same day, the excited Lehner called all his courtiers together to witness the light and soft wool cloth with excellent thermal performance.

"How about it, my dear courtiers!" Reiner looked at the people in front of him with a smile on his face.

"This kind of feel... I have to say, it's very good!" Earl Valas couldn't help admiring, even in the fantasy plane he was in, there were only a few fabrics that could reach this level.

"Oh, my holy father, this is clearly an exquisite fabric that only fairies in the sky can use! Your lord duke is indeed worthy of being favored by the holy father, and he can even make such an ingenious thing!"

Reiner didn't even need to look to know that such disgusting words must have come from Aizexi's mouth, and this kind of comment does not have any reference value.

He set his sights directly on Count Corder.

"Hmm...it's really good!" Earl Corder asked, "How much does this fabric cost? If it's too expensive, I'm afraid it will be difficult to sell it!"

Reiner's uncle has been taken by him too much. If before, his first thought was definitely whether it could be made into clothes for the army on a large scale, but now the first consideration is whether it is suitable for sale.

"Hmm..." Reiner pondered for a moment, considering that the same labor is faster than the previous weaving speed.

In addition, Rainer himself owns more than 50,000 sheep, and the cost of wool is close to zero, so he said: "The cost is very low, very low, even lower than the price of ordinary linen before!"

"That's really great! This will definitely make us rich!" Earl Corder said with his eyes wide open in disbelief.

"That's right, my uncle, what I have to do now is to promote this tool called the shuttle in my territory!" Reiner held the shuttle in his hand and showed it to everyone.

"Is this a tool that can greatly improve the efficiency of weaving? If it is distributed to everyone, it can indeed greatly increase the weaving output of the entire northern border!" Baron Corder nodded and said.

"It's such a duke!" At this time, Earl Leyland said, who hadn't spoken yet: "Since this kind of fabric has a better thermal insulation effect, I hope to get a batch of warm clothes for our soldiers!"

"And I hope to test the defensive effect of this wool cloth. It doesn't need its defensive performance to surpass the current linen cloth. As long as it can be equal, we can use it to make soldiers' armed clothing!"

Earl Ryland is a general, so his focus is only on the army.

"No problem, I am more than happy to increase the survivability of the soldiers!"

"Since none of you object, then I have decided to start distributing these flying shuttles to the villages below in batches starting tomorrow!"

"Do you have anything to say, Aizei?"

Reiner saw Aizexi's lips move a little, but he still hesitated for a while and did not continue speaking.

Hearing Reiner call his name, Aizexi's body couldn't help shaking, and hurriedly said: "No...it's nothing, Your Excellency Duke!"

"Alright then..." Reiner glanced at him suspiciously, but didn't take it seriously.

Reiner's political group was very efficient, and on the day Reiner made his decision, many carpenters were gathered and began to mass-produce flying shuttles.

Carpenter is no more common than blacksmith, so nearly two hundred shuttles were made in one afternoon.

The next day, the officials of the village closest to Mecaron City took a few people and started distributing shuttles door to door.

"Open the door! Old Ruimu, open the door quickly! I need to find you!" The official knocked vigorously on the spacious wood-stone mixed house in front of him. From the appearance of the house, it is not difficult to tell that this is a wealthy family.

"Oh Holy Father! What are you doing so early in the morning!" Old Ruimu opened the door with a sigh, and looked sleepily at the village official in front of him.

Suddenly, his eyes became vigilant: "You don't want me to pay more taxes, do you? Let me tell you, my eldest son and fourth son are both serving in the Duke's army! We are reducing Dude! Don't try to deceive Old Ruimu! Old Ruimu can't be deceived casually!"

"Oh, okay! It's been so long, don't you know, I won't do that!"

"The Earl has sent an order, asking us to distribute this thing to everyone! The speed at which this thing can weave is amazing!" The village official showed the shuttle in front of Old Rim. Said.
