Chapter 56 Weaving



As for the loom, Xu Nanxing bought a fully automatic jacquard loom.

In addition to weaving ordinary plain cloth, we can also weave cloth with jacquard patterns.

The entire machine does not occupy a large area and is suitable for all kinds of yarns such as cotton, wool and linen.

Of course, the most important thing is that it is fully automatic and comes with a computer screen operating console. Just for its easy operation, Xu Nanxing bought it immediately.

First, 10 kilograms of cotton thread were spun using a spinning machine, and then weaving began using a loom.

Xu Nanxing did not choose a pattern, he just planned to weave some ordinary fabric first.

Each machine was inspected before purchase, and she only signed for it after confirming that there were no problems and it was usable.

After all the preliminary work was prepared, Xu Nanxing clicked the button, and the loom started working immediately, and the cloth was woven in a short while.

Xu Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that the cloth could be woven. Otherwise, it would be difficult to return it for repairs!

All 10 kilograms of cotton thread were used up, and the final product looked pretty good. The next step is dyeing.

Dyeing machine, Xu Nanxing prepared a fully automatic dyeing and printing machine.

Dyeing actually involves color matching, but Xu Nanxing doesn't understand this, so to be conservative, he just uses the original colors.

Green, blue and gray are the mainstream colors now, so she chose blue and black.

Turn on the machine and follow the operating procedures. First, lay out the woven white cloth as required, set the data, place the pigment, and then start dyeing.

The color of the dyed fabric was a bit uneven at first, dark in some places and light in others, but only later did the color gradually become even.

The dyed fabrics need to be dried in a dryer.

After processing it in a small dryer, hang it up and dry it in the sun for two days.

This is just simple dyeing. If you want to print and dye patterns, the process will be more complicated.

Let’s put this matter aside and think about it slowly later!

After completing this series of processes, the fabric was finally woven, and the entire afternoon had passed.

Xu Nanxing quickly left the space and rode his bicycle towards Shanghe Village.

When I got home, the two children of the Ye family had already started preparing dinner.

Seeing Xu Nanxing coming back, everyone was very happy.

Xiaoyu rushed into Xu Nanxing's arms like a little cannonball and said coquettishly, "Sister Nanxing, you're back! Why have you been out for so long? I missed you so much!"

These coaxing words are as if they are free of charge. Xiaoyu is such a sweet girl.

"Xiaoyu, I miss you too! I brought you a lot of delicious food this time!"

Xu Nanxing also loved this little girl very much and held her tightly in his arms.

"Sister Xu, you're back!" Xiaotian became calmer. The 10-year-old child also looked a bit like a little adult.

Xu Nanxing patted his head and said, "Xiaotian is also very well behaved and takes good care of his sister! I also brought something for you!"

Xiaotian's face turned red when his sister touched his head.

Hearing his sister's praise, Xiaotian puffed out his chest proudly!

Xu Nanxing returned to the house, turned east and west, thought for a while, and took out a pound of pork belly and a bottle of soy sauce from the space.

Anyway, no one knows what she brought back, so she can just add whatever she wants!

I gave the meat and soy sauce to Xiaotian and asked him to add a meat dish to dinner.

Ye Tian watched as Sister Xu bought more meat for them to eat together. He felt a little embarrassed for asking his sister to buy meat every time.

After thinking about it, Ye Tian returned to the room and took out 10 yuan from the money he had hidden.

He ran to Xu Nanxing and handed her the money: "Sister Xu, my sister and I always eat the meat you buy. You also caught the rabbit last time, and you also provided the vegetable seeds for the fields. We are really sorry. I will give you 10 yuan as a meal fee!"

Xu Nanxing was a little surprised that little Ye Tian was so worldly-wise!

She didn't refuse and accepted it readily. She continued, "How about this, I have connections here and can buy a lot of scarce supplies, such as meat, cloth, soap, and industrial products. If you need the things I buy in the future, I can share some with you, but I have to pay according to the other party's price. What do you think?"

Ye Tian's eyes lit up when he heard this. These things are very difficult to buy, not only because many people don't have enough tickets, but often because they are out of stock.

During the planned economy era, the use of tickets to set quotas was due to the shortage of materials. But often, even if you had a ticket, you often couldn't buy anything!

But they have no formal source of tickets in rural areas.

In the past, my second uncle would send back money notes every month, and the whole family depended on these notes.

He has money now, the compensation has been returned, and his grandmother gave him the last coin before she died. He has more than 500 yuan in his hand, but no ticket.

If he wanted to buy something, he could only buy some homemade products made by farmers at the village sales outlets.

But for things like meat, cloth, and industrial supplies, there are absolutely no village sales outlets.

Now when he heard Sister Xu say that she had a way to buy these, and from the sound of her voice, no tickets were needed, it was really great news for him.

He nodded quickly and said, "That's great, Sister Xu! My sister and I need a lot of things that we can't buy at all! If you have the connections to help us get them, we'd be more than happy to help you!"

"Okay, I've been going out to make connections these days, so don't worry, just come to me if you need to buy anything! Oh, there's one more thing I'll tell you after dinner!"

Although Ye Tian was curious about what the other party wanted to say to him, Sister Xu was right. It would be better to talk about it after dinner.

This time Ye Tian was the head chef again, with Xu Nanxing and Ye Yu helping him.

Because of the addition of pork belly and soy sauce provided by Xu Nanxing, Ye Tian performed exceptionally well this time and the dishes he cooked tasted delicious.

The dinner was really delicious for everyone!

After dinner, Xu Nanxing took the two of them to his room.

She took out the letter that Ye Dajiang asked her to bring back, as well as the money and tickets, and the things she bought in Shen City, and handed them all to Ye Tian.

"Xiaotian, I went to Shen City this time to visit my elders. But I accidentally learned that your second uncle Ye Dajiang was injured and hospitalized. I went to visit your second uncle. His injury was not serious, but he needed to rest for a few months. He asked me to bring these to you.

By the way, since I couldn’t buy good things in town, I used some of my money to buy these things in the city.”

Xu Nanxing used up all his soap coupons, cloth coupons, oil coupons, and sugar coupons in Shen City. These coupons were not enough to buy good products in the town.

Ye Yu looked at the things that Sister Nanxing brought back excitedly. The candies were milk candies she bought, which were different from what the children in the village ate.

Xu Nanxing peeled one and fed it to the little girl, who immediately smiled happily.
