Survival on a deserted island, a fake daughter raises a tiger cub and makes the star cry

Chapter 113 Textile Machine

Compared to the first tanning, the second time the smell is not as strong.

After the fur is soaked and softened, add wood ash and sand and rub it.

Each rubbing will increase the softness of the fur.

After the second time, put the fur on the fire to smoke, and wait for the leather on it to become more flexible.

Then stretch it according to the previous holes and put it on the beach to dry again.

"This method of tanning fur will make it very soft, and when used to make clothing, it will be very comfortable to wear next to the skin."

"However, due to the scarcity of resources in the wild, tanning fur takes a long time. If there aren't many people, you can use other tanning methods. Although they won't be as soft as they are now, they are still very good for temporary emergency use."

The audience in the live broadcast room listened to Shi Nianqing's introduction and started discussing it on the barrage.

[Sister Shi just wanted to teach me how to tan fur. Is there any chance we can make these things?]

[Theoretically, there is no chance, but there is no harm in learning]

I'm just curious, how good would these furs look if they were used to make clothes?

[No matter how good it is, it's not meant to be worn now. The weather is still too hot. I guess it should be worn in winter.]

【It really is! 】

……

The discussion in the barrage was in full swing, and the four of them were sweating profusely while working.

After finishing the work, there was a strong sour smell on the body.

They quickly went to boil water for a shower. After the shower, they returned to their rooms and waited for their clothes to dry.

The feeling of not having any clothes on is really strange. Fortunately, the end of the live broadcast room often blocks this sensitivity.

The more time passed, the more Shi Nianqing realized how important it was to make the textile machine.

They really need new clothes. It's okay now in the summer, but clothes will be even harder to dry in the winter. Do they have to wait until the clothes are dry before they can work?

What a waste of time this is.

In the following time, I kept thinking about the parts of the textile machine in my mind, and the information in my mind was playing in front of my eyes like a slide show.

I reviewed it quickly and confirmed the data.

The next day, seeing that the wood had become a little drier, he asked the other three people to help.

They may not be able to do simple carving, but you can tell them how long the wood is that you want and have them cut it to a certain length.

He used a dagger to do detailed carving.

Most of these parts are mortise and tenon structures, and each joint must be measured multiple times with a ruler to ensure no errors.

Fortunately, I have acquired the skills of a first-level worker, and my hands are much more stable than before.

Under the astonished gaze of the audience in the live broadcast room, Shi Nianqing prepared the rough framework.

The moment the frame was snapped on, I heard a creaking sound and saw that the joints that were originally disconnected seemed to have been there naturally.

There is absolutely no trace of any connection, and you can only see the gaps between them if you look closely.

Suya came over and checked it several times, with admiration shining in her eyes.

"Qingqing, you must be a celestial being. This level of precision is beyond the reach of even my home machine. Furthermore, the looms we make at home don't use the same structure as yours."

Suya carefully stroked the joint with her hands, and could hardly feel any bumps or depressions. This technique seemed to be better than the ones at home.

Suya is looking forward to what the finished product will look like.

After two days and two nights of production, more than 1800 parts were finally completed.

In order to facilitate replacement, we even made a lot of extra shuttles for looping hemp ropes.

Later, Suya took out all the wool she had collected before, boiled it again with wood ash water, dried it, and then rubbed it into thin threads with her hands.

All the wool was used to make about six piles of yarn, which was estimated to be enough to make two pieces of clothing.

In fact, Suya originally wanted to use these to make lighter clothes.

But when I think about the other three people who often go out and come into contact with various liquids outside.

This kind of wool will dissolve when it comes into contact with water and is completely unsuitable for the current situation.

Therefore, new clothes could only be made after advanced textile machines were completed.

After the loom is assembled, the warp and weft threads are threaded with wool and arranged on it according to a specific pattern.

Suya introduced her work to the audience in the live broadcast room while working.

"This weaving method originated in the ancient times of the Earth, when a variety of fibers could be used to make cloth."

"My elders once said that in ancient times, ordinary people used hemp fibers to make clothes, and only the rich and powerful could use silk and animal fur."

"Clothes made of silk and animal fur are soft and skin-friendly, but you need to be more careful when washing them."

"Clothes made of hemp fiber are relatively hard and can prick the skin. If you have delicate skin, they are not suitable for wearing."

"Later, with the development of machinery, most fabrics were made of polyester, which, in our interstellar age, is actually hazardous waste plastic."

The audience in the live broadcast room also gained some knowledge.

[It turns out that plastic can also be used to make clothes, so why is it now banned in the interstellar era? ]

[Plastic used to be made into beautiful clothes, but isn’t this non-degradable interstellar garbage?]

I heard that if plastic bags are to be degraded, it would cost at least 1000 to degrade an ordinary bag, which is not as convenient as the current shopping bags.

[I checked the data and found that the use rate of plastic on ancient Earth was very high and caused great environmental pollution]

Environmental pollution is one of the factors that lead to the destruction of the Earth. Later, in order to avoid risks, our ancestors developed new biodegradable materials, which completely replaced plastic bags.

[Now if anyone throws plastic bags around, they will be arrested by the interstellar police]

[No wonder it’s so strict, it turns out there are lessons from past experience]

.......
Shi Nianqing had been observing the comments in the live broadcast room. When he heard them talking about the destruction of the earth, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

I quickly responded to the memories in my mind. There was no history of ancient Earth at all.

The original owner had never studied this aspect at all. Throughout the entire interstellar era, he was in a state of confusion about the history and information of ancient Earth.

If it weren't for his live broadcast, most people wouldn't even know the basic knowledge about the ancient Earth.

So Shi Nianqing still doesn’t know how the ancient Earth was destroyed.

I wonder if the current researchers want to completely replicate a new Earth just for the economic crops on it?
It doesn't feel that simple.
