In the past two days, Xu Chen had nothing to do. He had been teaching Xue Rengui martial arts and military strategies. He had used the military skills under the system's " National Defense Technology " to the fullest.
Xue Rengui had a good foundation, and his martial arts skills advanced by leaps and bounds. His understanding of the art of war also advanced by leaps and bounds, and he already had a very clear concept of war.
Now, even if he were to go arm wrestle with Li Jing, the famous military theorist of the Great Tang, he would not be at a disadvantage!
However, as time passed, the weather became colder and colder. Fortunately, Xue Rengui had killed a black bear and a tiger with his bare hands and made them into tiger skin coats and bear skin coats. That was why they did not freeze.
However, the villagers in the village were all frozen to death. Several of them had been poisoned by burning charcoal to keep warm. Xu Chen had rushed to save them. Otherwise, they would have been poisoned to death!
"Master, it's really freezing this year. It's not even late autumn yet, and it's already so cold. I don't know how we're going to get through winter.”
Xue Rengui was wearing a bearskin coat. He rubbed his hands and complained.
As a martial arts practitioner, he could eat a lot and had accumulated a lot of fat. His ability to withstand the cold was much stronger than that of ordinary people. Even he felt cold, let alone the villagers. Their teeth were chattering.
"Cold is good, warm is bad.”
Xu Chen was wearing a tiger skin coat and a warm inner armor given by the system. He was not very cold, but there was a worry that could not be washed away between his brows. He sighed,
"I don't know if Brother Chunfeng's wool processing machine is ready. Every day that we delay will be more dangerous!”
In ancient times, winter was actually very difficult to survive. In this cold year, the number of adults frozen to death and children who died young in the Great Tang numbered at least several thousand!
However, was a warm winter good enough? It was also a huge hidden danger if it was not cold in winter!
If the temperature was high, the eggs and larvae of the locusts would be able to reproduce wantonly. By the time of the autumn harvest next year, it would be a locust plague!
At that time, they would have to face the danger of crops being harmed and not being able to afford food…
The lives of these commoners were really difficult.
Just as he was thinking about how to solve the problem, a voice came from outside the door.
"Brother Xu Chen, Brother Xu Chen! Come out and unload the goods!"
When Xu Chen heard the voice, he was shocked. He said happily,"
"It's big brother Chun Feng! Rengui, quickly welcome him!"
As they spoke, the two of them immediately stood up and hurried to the door. As expected, there was an ox cart parked at the door, and Li Chunfeng was untying the rope behind the ox cart.
The three of them worked together and effortlessly brought the machine into the courtyard and placed it in the center.
"I'm ashamed. It's too cold this year. The craftsmen's hands are a little stiff. There have been many mistakes. Otherwise, they would have delivered it to you last night.”
Li Chunfeng cupped his hands and smiled. He had learned his lesson this time. If he wore the green Daoist robe again, he would probably freeze to death. He also wore a beast skin, looking less like a sage and more like a hero.
"Not late, not late. You came at the right time!”
Xu Chen's eyes lit up as he looked at the well-made wool processing machine again and again. He was very happy.
This was simply taken from the design. Li Chunfeng's ability was too strong!
"System, scan this wool processing machine and see how practical it is.”
He thought to himself. Although it looked good, he still had to let the system evaluate whether it could be used or not.
"Scanning, please wait…"
"Beep! Scanning completed. The machine is well made and meets the design concept. It can complete more than 90% of the estimated efficiency. The system gives a score: Excellent."
Hearing the high praise from the system, Xu Chen finally felt relieved.
This was his first step towards becoming a technological powerhouse, so he was definitely nervous. Fortunately, the results were not bad.
"Haha, very good, very good. Then what are we waiting for? Rengui, go and bring the wool over. There's no time to lose.”
Xu Chen smiled and ordered.
The first woolen product in the Great Tang, or even the entire world, would be born from his hands. Just thinking about it made him a little excited!
" Brother, you've already finished washing and drying the wool. There are still some steps to be done. Come, look. This is a set of procedures that I've arranged according to what you said. Let's remove the impurities first, and then..."
Li Chunfeng took out a roll of paper and said to Xu Chen.
His stack of paper was filled with the process of making wool into ready-made clothes. It was written in detail, but it was not complicated at all. It was obvious that he had put in a lot of effort.
These were exactly what Xu Chen lacked! He could do a good job in general and come up with good ideas that would shock the world. However, he still needed the help of people like Li Chunfeng to do a good job in specific operations and details.
"Brother Chun Feng, you are really a good helper!”
Xu Chen looked at the dark circles under Li Chunfeng's eyes and was quite touched. He immediately made a decision and said,"
"Alright, we'll do as you say. The three of us will work together to turn all the wool into yarn today!”
The three of them reached an agreement, and the wool processing machine quickly started operating. According to Li Chunfeng's instructions, every process was strictly followed to ensure that the quality was not defective.
They worked from morning to noon, and then from noon to night. During this period, Xiao Wu came and cooked for the three of them, but they didn't even have time to eat. They just ate a few mouthfuls and continued working.
Even Xu Chen, who seemed to be the most relaxed, did not stop for a moment. He kept running, making Xiao Wu feel both heartache and pride.
This was the ideal husband she had chosen. He had the heart to seek happiness for the people of the world!
At nine o'clock in the evening, Xiao Wu had already gone home. The wool of the hundred sheep had finally been used up. Balls of snow-white wool were piled up in the middle, like a small mountain, shining brightly.
"It's finally done. These should be enough for everyone in the village to wear a sweater, right?”
Li Chunfeng felt a sense of pride as he looked at the results.
Even if he was Xu Chen's foil, he was destined to leave a deep mark in the history books!
"Yes, I roughly estimated that not only can everyone in the village wear it, but there are also many extra ones.”
Xu Chen nodded and smiled.
"We can make sweaters out of the excess and sell them to the high-ranking officials in Chang 'an at a high price. Then, we can use this money to build wool processing machines. After that, we can open factories and reach a cooperation with the Turks!”
The more he spoke, the more excited he became. He paused for a moment and said,
"Then, we can produce wool and yarn on an assembly line. Then, we can consider letting merchants join us and collect joining fees and commissions. We can give them machines and train relevant talents.”
"At that time, wool products will be extremely cheap. Even ordinary people can afford to buy and wear them. In this way, everyone in the world can wear sweaters to resist the cold!”
Xue Rengui was speechless.
Li Chunfeng was speechless.
The two of them looked at Xu Chen as if they were looking at a god…
