Chapter 245 How many people followed the ascension
"Well, just do as you say and plow the land. Otherwise, you women and children will be the only ones left at home. You can't always trouble your neighbors. Everyone is busy during the busy farming season!" Su Bucheng agreed deeply.
The village is small and there is little labor. After helping Jinfengzhai build the road, I have to rush back to harvest the wheat, and then plow the land. The labor intensity is quite high. How can I have the nerve to make others tired?
"Well, the wheat of other families will have to wait for three or four days. These few days are just the right time for us to plow the field." Su Ying calculated the time.
Alas, it is really tiring to count the time on my fingers in order to dig more food from the ground.
Around this time last year, a family was exiled from Chang'an to Lingnan to fight locusts. They were on the road for two full months.
If I calculate it this way, in two months, it will have been a year since we got here!
"Aying, that, that!" County Magistrate Hu did not enter Su's house. He pulled Su Ying at the door, hesitantly.
After using the paint for a few days, what would it look like? County Magistrate Hu couldn't help but be curious.
"Let's go, I'll take you to see it!" Seeing that everyone had gone in, Su Ying took County Magistrate Hu to the silkworm room.
"Look!" Su Ying pushed open the door.
Magistrate Hu looked at the bright red silkworm's feet, feeling very strange. "How did it become like this? Is it successful or not?"
"At present, we can only say that the direction is correct. This is used to feed red pigment. The silkworm's feet turn red. This is related to silk spinning. There is a hole called the valve." Su Ying explained.
"What about other colors?" County Magistrate Hu saw that the two silkworms were obviously fat and thin, and both were red.
"Each room has a different color, similar to this one. Let's go and see the others!"
Su Ying turned around and saw County Magistrate Lin secretly peeking at her from the door.
Seeing Su Ying saw him, he said awkwardly, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I just saw you two coming over and was curious! Hehe! I won't go in! I won't go in!"
But his eyes were full of curiosity and desire.
"Well, since you already know, come in and take a look!" Su Ying smiled.
Lin Chongzhi came in and looked around curiously, "Miss Su, is this your new silkworm breeding method?"
"Yes! What does Lord Lin think?" Su Ying asked.
"Very good! They are fatter than other silkworms. I think they will make large and bright cocoons!" Lin Chong asked. "What's the meaning of your silkworm's feet being red?"
I just listened to half of it and thought it was to promote the growth of silkworms, but why is it red?
Su Ying glanced at County Magistrate Hu and asked with a smile, "Sir Hu, are you willing to give it up?"
"This is your exclusive secret recipe. It's up to you whether you are willing to give it up or not!" County Magistrate Hu said generously.
Once this natural colored silk is made, how many people will be shocked!
He was reluctant to do so, but Lin Chongzhi was his good friend. Tong County was right next door and was also very poor. It also needed something to drive local development.
He left the decision to Su Ying.
"This matter has not been completed yet. Lord Lin, please keep it confidential and don't make it public! If it is successful, I can pass on the technology to you, but there is a requirement!" Su Ying said seriously.
"Please speak, young lady!" Lin Chongzhi said seriously.
"This technology is only found in Wu and Tong counties. Possessing this technology will be the secret to wealth for Wu and Tong counties. Perhaps it's best to keep it in private hands!"
Speaking of the latter part, Su Ying sighed helplessly.
Whether it is in the hands of individuals or the imperial court, this pure natural colored silk is bound to be coveted, and she doesn't mind letting the common people learn this technology.
But she didn't want thieves to steal it and claim it as their intangible cultural heritage thousands of years later.
The powerful Tang Dynasty was visited by people from all over the world. Among them were the Koreans and the poor people. Now they are well behaved and eager to learn. If we take our things back, they will become theirs.
Thinking of this, Su Ying felt depressed.
In modern society, these natural colored silks are developed by ourselves.
With the open mind of the Heavenly Khan, as long as those thieves pretend to be humble, the Heavenly Khan will generously let them learn.
Therefore, this natural colored silk has become useless and cannot stop thieves from getting it.
"My lady, I have no selfish motives. I just hope that Tong County can be like Wu County, where the people can live and work in peace and prosperity!" Lin Chongzhi thought that Su Ying was worried that he would forget his principles for the sake of profit.
"Lord Lin, you misunderstood. Since I have decided to tell you this, I will not doubt your character! I am worried that this technology will be stolen by foreigners and claimed to be theirs thousands of years later." Su Ying expressed her concerns.
"You worry too much, my lady! This item is of extraordinary significance and will surely be recorded in history books.
"So what if they stole it thousands of years later? The records in history books cannot be erased. This only proves that those foreigners were scoundrels who were not worthy of being on the stage!" Lin Chongzhi said loudly.
"Yes! Ah Ying, Chongzhi is absolutely right! History has proven it! Anyone who dares to say it belongs to them only proves that they are thieves and scoundrels!" County Magistrate Hu agreed.
"!" Su Ying was stunned. Yes, how did she end up in a dead end?
The great China has a rich historical record spanning thousands of years, which cannot be erased by a few words from a thief!
After figuring this out, Su Ying stopped worrying and said, "Let's go and take a look at the other rooms."
County Magistrate Hu was mentally prepared and was filled with joy after seeing it. He felt that he was very close to success and was about to touch it.
Lin Chongzhi was horrified. "This, this! How could this happen? Impossible, impossible!"
"That's right, that's what Lord Lin guessed!" Su Ying nodded.
"It's still in the experimental stage, and we'll have to see if the color of the silk produced is consistent and stable."
"Girl, if this really works out, your name will definitely be recorded in history books." Lin Chongzhi bowed solemnly to Su Ying.
It is not the maiden name, but the taboo name, which is a very solemn and respectful term.
"Your Excellency's words are too kind. Su Ying doesn't deserve them!" Su Ying dodged sideways, realizing that she had completely plagiarized the ideas of modern scientific researchers.
"Girl, look at these colors, are the silk threads also these colors?" Lin Chongzhi asked.
"Yes! I just don't know whether the color of the silk spit out is dark or light." No one knows until the last moment.
"Sir Hu, I don't plan to hand over this batch of cocoons, regardless of whether they can be spun or not!" Su Ying informed Magistrate Hu in advance.
"That's easy. I'll let the household department know." County Magistrate Hu understood that this was to prevent the news from leaking out.
"In addition, I also need a silk reeling machine and a textile machine! If it is done, it also depends on whether the reeled silk fades, and what the color and gloss of the finished product are." Su Ying explained.
"That's easy. Go back and ask your wife to get you a set as soon as possible!" County Magistrate Hu said readily.
These are just small amounts of money, but if it really succeeds, the fame and fortune it brings will be immeasurable!
Just with these silks and satins presented by the imperial envoys, how many people would ascend to heaven!
Then the Su family’s actions will no longer be concealed! But that’s fine!
Not to mention the food, they fooled the villagers of Huanggou Village, and if they continue to fool people with the natural colored silk, they would be treating the Khan of Heaven as a fool!
This natural colored silk not only requires extremely high technical content, but also bold creativity, which cannot be achieved by accumulated experience alone.
The Khan of Heaven would inevitably become suspicious if he kept mentioning the villagers of Huanggou Village. What kind of villagers from Huanggou Village are so powerful? A little investigation would reveal the truth.
Rather than waiting to be found out, it is better to report it directly.
It's not fair for everyone to benefit from it while the real contributors live in the mountains and remain unknown. This is unfair to the Su family!
County Magistrate Hu is looking forward to the day when natural colored silk will be successful, so that the Su family can get the glory they deserve in a fair and open manner.
