"I'm going to my father's place first. I have some things that need to be dealt with these days. If you want to go back, just tell Shu and he will arrange for someone to take you back. I may be back late in the evening, so don't wait for me to eat."
"Okay, I understand. Go ahead." Meng Yuqing replied.
Xuan found Shu again and said a few words to him before leaving.
Ronglin brought a lot of people over and waited for Meng Yuqing to teach them how to make these stem-leaf trees into something that could be used to weave cloth.
"We need to peel off the bark of the stem-leaf tree first, and then you will find that the skin is very soft. Those are what we will use to weave cloth. Use a knife to scrape off the rough and hard parts, leaving only the soft parts." Meng Yuqing picked up the stem-leaf tree and demonstrated to them how to operate.
The people around him watched his movements carefully, learning to peel off the unnecessary things from the stems and leaves of the tree.
"Once it's done, soak it in water for a few days."
As soon as these words were spoken, an orc came over with water.
After carefully removing the hard parts from the peeled stems and bark, everyone threw them into the water.
Shu arranged for some orcs to make water containers, which were then filled with water and placed where the bark was peeled.
There were quite a few bark trees, and eventually even the orcs guarding nearby joined in peeling the bark. It took everyone five days to finish.
The first batch of soaked stem and leaf bark was salvaged, and the green skin on the surface was scraped off with bamboo strips, and then placed on racks to dry. Meng Yuqing did not master the bleaching process very well, so it was not particularly successful.
But it doesn't matter to him. As long as he can weave the cloth, it doesn't matter what color it is. If he wants white, he can just weave cotton cloth with cotton later.
