The Warriors of the Three Kingdoms

"Yuan Tan (Gu Yong's pronoun), why are you here?"

At this moment, Gu Yong was a little excited. After seeing Liu Zheng, he immediately responded to Liu Zheng.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has something important to report to His Majesty!"

"Huh? If you have anything to say, just say it."

Liu Zheng didn't say much, and asked Gu Yong to talk about business.

Gu Yong didn't hesitate, he took two steps back, and stretched out his hand to pull off the white cloth on the machine.

The white cloth fell, revealing the thing covered by the white cloth.

A machine constructed from wooden blocks.

The machine is not big, that is, it is bigger than a person, and the structure on it is complicated. At a glance, you can't tell what the machine is used for.

Although Liu Zheng is a modern person, he has never seen this thing before. After observing it carefully, he couldn't see what it was for, so he couldn't help but feel a little bit puzzled.

"Yuan Tan, this thing?"

Liu Zheng didn't know what the machine was for, so he immediately asked Gu Yong.

Thinking about it, if Gu Yong was able to find this thing with him, he must have some understanding of this thing, and he should know what it is for. ?

The first thousand and 180 chapters and four weaving machines

Before Liu Zheng could ask, Gu Yong had already started to explain to Liu Zheng.

"Your Majesty, this thing is called a satin weaving machine."

Ok?

When Liu Zheng heard Gu Yong's explanation, he was slightly taken aback.

It's not that Liu Zheng has never seen silk weaving machines. Although he is a modern person, there are already such things as silk weaving machines in this era. There is no need to go to other places, even in Liu Zheng's palace. There is this thing.

Aya is a jacquard silk fabric with a smooth surface.

Silk and satin, these things were the most advanced silk weaving technology in the land of China in ancient times, and they were also the most popular things all over the world.

From Zhang Qian’s Silk Road, we can see how popular these silk silks and satins are in the Western world.

At this time, Dahan was also the first country in the world to produce silk fabrics.

But at this time, the production efficiency was still very low, and the working people gradually invented simple silk weaving machines in production practice.This damask weaving machine has 120 treads, and people manage it with their feet. It takes about two months to weave a piece of damask.

Later, this weaving machine was simplified many times.But when we arrived in the Three Kingdoms, weaving machines with fifty warp threads and fifty pedals were still very clumsy.

Liu Zheng had seen this thing in the women's workshop in the palace before, but there was a big difference between the silk weaving machine and the thing Gu Yong showed him now.

It can be said that it is not the same thing at all.

That's why Liu Zheng didn't recognize what it was at the first glance.

"Is this a weaving machine?"

Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment, and had some doubts.

Seeing Liu Zheng's doubts, Gu Yong immediately knew what Liu Zheng meant.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this thing is a silk weaving machine. It was brought over by a craftsman today. I also doubted it before, but after the craftsman demonstrated it to me, it is indeed possible to weave a silk fabric. I am sure that this is Weaving machine."

"Huh? A new craftsman brought it? Who is it?"

Only then was Liu Zheng full of curiosity, and asked Gu Yong a question.

Seeing Liu Zheng asking, Gu Yong didn't dare to neglect, and immediately turned his head to give instructions to the guards around him.

"Go, bring in the people outside the yard."

With Gu Yong's words, the guard quickly turned his head and left the courtyard, and then went out to bring in the people who were waiting outside the courtyard.

Liu Zheng looked at the person who came in from the yard, he seemed to be a young man in his early 20s.

There is still a bit of childishness on the face, not like a craftsman who knows a lot.

Quite a bit of a surprise.

"Is this really the weaving machine you made?"

"Back... back to Your Majesty, this... this thing... is indeed... made by me."

Ok?

The young man was a little apprehensive, as if he didn't expect to see Liu Zheng in this place.

After all, what is Liu Zheng's identity, to be able to meet him, a young man who doesn't understand anything.

He is just a craftsman who knows some skills, and Liu Zheng is the emperor. Speaking of which, for a young man like him, if he hadn't had Liu Zheng's national policy in his life, he would never have been able to see the emperor.

It was a bit of a surprise to see the emperor, so the voice of the speech seemed a little excited.

It's just that Liu Zheng was a little surprised that he spoke intermittently.

I thought it was because this person was a little excited when he saw him, so he slurred his speech and stuttered.

"You put on a show for the widow to see."

Liu Zheng was curious, so he asked this person to perform for himself on the spot.

The young man was also unambiguous, and he seemed a little excited when he heard Liu Zheng's order.Instead, he immediately started to operate and showed Liu Zheng how to weave silk.

While watching the young man operate, Liu Zheng stared at the combination of the machine in front of him and the satin weaving machine in his impression.

It was because Liu Zheng knew that the thing in front of him was a satin weaving machine, so Liu Zheng took a few more glances before reluctantly. It seemed that it was somewhat similar to a satin weaving machine.

In my impression, there are more than 50 pedals on the weaving machine of this era.

But the one in front of him, the silk weaving machine transformed by this young man, has only 12 pedals.

And some other structures are also simplified a lot.

Without the complicated structure of the traditional weaving machine.

Because of this, Liu Zheng didn't see that this thing was a satin weaving machine.

After the young man actually wove a small piece of silk with this thing.

Gu Yong, Liu Zheng and the others really opened their eyes again, convinced that this is a silk weaving machine.

"This thing is actually a silk weaving machine! And the speed is so fast!"

Just when Liu Zheng, Gu Yong and others were surprised, the young man re-opened his mouth and introduced the silk weaving machine to Liu Zheng.

"Your Majesty, my... I was born... in a family of craftsmen since I was a child, and I have been fond of exploring since I was a child. This... these things, I saw the traditional... silk weaving machine... The process is complicated, so I want to improve it, so... I just want to improve it. With now, this... this weaving machine."

When the young man spoke to Liu Zheng again.

He still stammered intermittently when speaking.

This made Liu Zheng doubt this person again.

It turned out that this person was not stuttering because of excitement, it seemed that he was really stuttering.

However, stammering is not to make people look down upon.

As long as he is a person with real ability, Liu Zheng will not underestimate him.

After all, he remembered very clearly that there was a famous general in the history of the Three Kingdoms, but he also stuttered.

That person is Deng Ai, the late general of Cao Wei.

It's a pity that the little stammer in front of him should not belong to Deng Ai. According to Liu Zheng's impression, I'm afraid Deng Ai may not be born now.

"Are you stuttering?"

Liu Zheng asked a question.The young man immediately blushed.

"Back... back to Your Majesty, yes... yes."

"It's okay, since you have a stuttering problem, you can answer me briefly."

"Have you calculated how much this new weaving machine can improve the weaving efficiency of the old weaving machine?"

The young man thought about it for a while.

"About four or five times."

Liu Zheng gasped.

I was really surprised by the young man's answer.

"Four or five times!"

A machine can increase the weaving speed by four or five times compared with the old weaving machine.

You should know that it takes more than a month to weave a piece of cloth on the old damask weaving machine.

And after this young man improved, this new weaving machine can actually increase the weaving speed by four or five times, which means that it only takes less than ten days to weave a piece of cloth.

Such a terrifying speed can greatly improve efficiency.

Since then, the price of expensive flower silk has been greatly reduced.

The first thousand and 180 chapters five Ma Jun

If Liu Zheng can promote this new weaving machine on a large scale.

You can definitely earn a lot of money through Hua Ling.

You can even sell these things to other countries through the Silk Road to earn more wealth.

After all, this thing is not a military control item.

For example, salt and iron should not be passed on to other races.

But this kind of life must taste flowers, silk and satin, and there is no such restriction.

Liu Zheng can sell him as much as the foreign race wants, and the price is not cheap.

If you think about the profits in it, you can know how rich it is.

"Okay, great! How long does it take to make one of this thing?"

"Three days."

"Okay, great, this thing must be vigorously promoted!"

After understanding, how much value this thing can bring to Liu Zheng.Liu Zheng said hello several times.

After all, once this thing can be successfully promoted, there will be a steady stream of wealth in the future.

The young man in front of him really surprised Liu Zheng.

After exchanging pleasantries, Liu Zheng remembered that he forgot to ask the young man's name.

"Oh, by the way, the widow doesn't know your name yet?"

Liu Zheng was panicked when he suddenly asked the stuttering young man.

Immediately nodded to answer.

"Little... little man Ma Jun."

"Wait, what's your name!"

The young man replied that after reporting his name, Liu Zheng suddenly realized that something was wrong.

"Ma Jun."

Hearing Liu Zheng's question, Ma Jun thought that Liu Zheng hadn't heard what he said clearly, so he calmed down again, and answered Liu Zheng, this time he didn't stutter.

When Liu Zheng confirmed that the young man in front of him was Ma Jun, his expression sank and he was slightly surprised.

"It turns out that the person in front of you is Ma Jun!"

Who is Ma Jun?

Perhaps many people who only pay attention to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, or even the official history of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, are not easy to remember such a number one figure as Ma Jun.

But if you look through some historical records of craftsmen, you can remember one of the top ten inventors in ancient times.

Ma Jun is among them.
