Make a fortune by farming: The sweetheart of the first assistant family

Huo Yunchao was slightly startled, turned his head to look at Xu Ning, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Sister Xiaocao, you and Ning Niang have exactly the same attitude and approach towards papermaking. No wonder you can be sisters."

Lin Xiaocao raised her chin proudly and said, "Niang Ning and I are sisters made in heaven!"

Made in heaven?

Huo Yunchao gave a thumbs up and praised: "As expected of Sister Xiaocao, the idiom "created in heaven" is used just right!

Lin Xiaocao and Xu Ning laughed together.

Zheng Shaoxuan, who was in a cheerful atmosphere, smiled and sighed: ...Brother Huo, I am not as good at talking as you.

After the laughter, Huo Yunchao spread out the papermaking technology book he brought and pointed out a few of his uncertain craftsmanship, "Brother Zheng, Sister Xiaocao, Ning Niang, there may be problems with these craftsmanship, we are making paper. You have to find a way to deal with it.”

Zheng Shao It’s clearly visible on the wall.”

Huo Yunchao agreed: "Brother Zheng is right."

While Zheng Shaoxuan was writing down the notes, Xu Ning and Lin Xiaocao were also busy, "Brother Huo, you said before that there are seventy-two processes for making bamboo paper. Please tell us how to do it one by one."

"Duanqing means cutting the bamboo into bamboo tubes of equal length; peeling the green means peeling off the green skin of the bamboo; beating the peeled bamboo tube repeatedly until it is broken; falling into the pond means putting the broken bamboo materials into Soak in clear water for four to five days:

Cut off the material, pick up the soaked bamboo material, wash and dry

Divide the net into bundles of equal weight; soak the bundled blanks. Put the bundled white blanks into lime liquid and soak them for two days;

To put the soaked white material into the wok, place it vertically in the paper wok; to burn the wok, heat the bottom of the paper wok and cook it day and night, for at least five days; to take out the wok: take out the cooked bamboo material from the paper wok and ask for it immediately Immerse yourself in a clear pond;

Turning over the stalls: The bamboo materials are soaked in clear water ponds for five to fifteen days. During the soaking period, the bamboo materials need to be rinsed frequently to remove decay; binding materials: the washed bamboo materials for the stalls are rearranged and bundled. "

When Huo Yunchao said this, he stopped and said: "These are just the first part of making bamboo paper - the white blank to make bamboo paper."

Lin Xiaocao and Xu Ning said in unison: "No wonder paper is so expensive!"

Zheng Shaoxuan didn't even raise his head: "If we can really make bamboo paper, it will be a great achievement."

Xu Ning couldn't help but interject: "Mr. sir, when we successfully make bamboo paper, do you plan to be like how you made wheat samarium, and teach anyone who wants to learn from it?"

Huo Yunchao was startled. He had not originally planned to talk about the long-term plan. He rushed to talk about this and said quickly: "That's right! Ning Niang, we cannot spread the bamboo paper with our own strength alone. However, I don’t teach anyone who comes to learn from me. Paper is so expensive and the craftsmanship is so complicated. We are unarmed ordinary people who need to be prepared for both self-protection and surrender of certificates.”

Lin Xiaocao and Xu Ning were confused after hearing this, and both looked at Zheng Shaoxuan who had stopped writing.

Zheng Shaoxuan explained: "If we can really make bamboo paper that is cheaper than the paper-making workshop, then it will definitely attract the attention of the paper-making workshop. For example

If bamboo paper is only made for personal use, the papermaking workshop will not stop us, but they will definitely ask us to hand over the bamboo papermaking process. "

Lin Xiaocao frowned and said, "Sir, what if we hand over the papermaking process but they don't allow us to make our own paper?"

Zheng Shao .”

Lin Xiaocao pulled her braid and said angrily: "Why are there so many troubles?"

Huo Yunzhao said half seriously and half jokingly: "Sister Xiaocao, do you think this is troublesome?"

Lin Xiaocao said indignantly: "No, Huo Di, I don't find it troublesome. No matter how complicated the papermaking process is, I am willing to spend time learning it, and no matter how hard or tiring it is, I am willing to do it. I just think about the peaches we have worked so hard to grow, Let others pick it. Those people did nothing but got an advantage for nothing. I feel uncomfortable thinking about this!"

Huo Yunchao spread his hands and said helplessly: "Sister Xiaocao, the world is so unfair. We are just ordinary people fighting for promotion, so we have to hold our noses and admit it."

Xu Ning didn't want to talk about how unfair the world was, so he brought it back to the topic: "Mr. sir, let's continue talking about papermaking technology. Especially the craftsmanship that you are undecided about, tell us in detail why you want to do this and what standards you need to meet. "

Her idea is very simple and practical. Since they cannot change the general environment, they should change themselves to adapt to the environment.

Huo Yunchao saw the impatience in Xu Ning's eyebrows and continued to talk about papermaking.

Technique: "Foot hammer pounding material: Put the white material in the stone pound, and repeatedly step on it with the foot hammer to make the teeth of the grinder continue to pound the white material until the white material becomes fine powder. Then pick up the material, break the material, The slurry is put into the trough, stirred with a wooden rake, and the thick ribs are removed. After these steps, the pulp can be obtained."

"The next step is the most difficult process in the entire bamboo paper production process - curtain copying and lifting. The papermaker holds the paper curtain with both hands and swings the slurry in the paper trough on the paper curtain. It is required to shake the wrist to make the paper The thickness of the slurry on the curtain is uniform. Then, the curtain bed tilts forward to shake out the excess slurry or residual coarse fibers, so that a layer of pulp film, which is wet paper, is deposited on the paper curtain. Turn the wet paper on the paper curtain over Fasten it on the paper holder, leaving the wet paper. Repeat this process repeatedly, buckling the wet paper back and forth again and again, so that the wet paper on the paper holder increases neatly and forms a paper block."

Lin Xiaocao felt dizzy after hearing this, and said weakly: "Brother Huo, I don't think I can do such a detailed job like going under the curtain and copying."

Xu Ning had a more practical idea and asked sharply: "Mr. sir, do you have any special requirements for that paper curtain?"

Huo Yunchao nodded heavily: "Yes! The paper curtain mentioned in this process is a big problem that I am not sure of solving."

Zheng Shaoxuan suddenly said: "I have been to a papermaking workshop and seen paper curtains."

Lin Xiaocao looked nervous and stared at her husband: "Mr., have you been to the papermaking workshop? Who took you there? What does the paper curtain look like? Can we make it?"

Zheng Shaoxuan glanced around and found three pairs of eyes staring at him. He replied calmly: "Yes, it's what you think. I

Follow Young Master Zhou to the papermaking workshop. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll go find Zhou…”

Before Young Master Zhou finished speaking, Zheng Shaoxuan's mouth was blocked by Lin Xiaocao. Before he could speak, he heard Lin Xiaocao's fierce voice: "I don't allow it!"

Zheng Shaoxuan's eyebrows were curved.
