Chapter 296 Amazed
After court discussions, the court finally made a plan to transfer Wu Xi back, and Zhang Qingfeng's strategy worked.

Things have developed to this point, no matter whether Wu Xi has the intention of rebelling or not, the court has no choice but to transfer him back.

There is such a big commotion in Lin'an, even if Wu Xi has no intention of rebelling, if he hears the wind and thinks what the court will do to him, it may not be true that he will rebel in the end.

In addition, Zhang Qingfeng's big newspaper made many people realize the horror of this kind of thing. A dignified Song Taiwei was recalled by the court because of such a big newspaper.

This kind of situation also gives you some people with ulterior motives to find a way to achieve their goals.

Less than half a month after Wu Xi's rebellion against the newspaper incident, another large newspaper was plastered all over Lin'an City.

Although after the last big newspaper incident, the imperial court strengthened the supervision and inspection of Lin'an City.

But Lin'an City is too big, and Lin'an is a city without curfew, and the flow of people is extremely complicated, so such a situation cannot be prevented at all.

This time the big newspaper mainly attacked Han Tuozhou, and it is said that Han Tuozhou's [-] crimes were listed.

As soon as the big newspaper came out this time, the imperial court was furious.

In particular, Han Yuzhou used great efforts to search, determined to find out the identity of the instigator behind the scenes.

Fortunately, because Han Yuzhou has several newspapers that can promote him, the big newspaper this time did not cause any substantial harm to him.

However, after two major newspaper incidents, the people of Lin'an became more and more disappointed with the imperial court.

Look at what nonsense the court has done. The Great Song Taiwei wanted to rebel, and the Great Song Prime Minister was listed with more than a dozen charges.

Many people believe that the Great Song Dynasty should have reached the stage of collapse at the end of the dynasty, and many people are even mentally prepared to change the dynasty.

At this time, Zhang Qingfeng didn't know that so many things happened in Lin'an City in less than a month.

At this time, Yang Hu, after completing the task assigned by Zhang Qingfeng, returned to Yizhou Island with a few friends.

As the instigators of the big newspaper, they naturally knew the seriousness of this matter, and they didn't dare to stay in Lin'an for fear of being found out and implicating Zhang Qingfeng.

At this time, Zhang Qingfeng and Yizhou Island were discussing cooperation matters with a group of businessmen.

Zhang Qingfeng asked people to build spinning machines and looms. He planned to build a textile workshop on Yizhou Island, and then tied up all the merchants to operate it.

"Everyone, this spinning machine can spin 56 spindles at a time, and the efficiency is more than a hundred times that of an experienced spinning machine." Zhang Qingfeng led a group of businessmen to visit and pointed at the spinning machine.

What he produced was really the famous spinning jenny in later generations, and it was an improved version.

He had made this thing in the Han Dynasty, and he was very familiar with it this time.

In this era, Huang Daopo hadn't improved the spinning wheel, and people now use a single-spindle hand-operated spinning wheel, and the spinning speed is very slow.

Although the spinning machine made by Zhang Qingfeng has only 56 spindles and spindles, it is driven by water power, and the spinning speed is more than a hundred times that of the spinning machine of this era. It is not bragging.

"Master Yang, you said that this spinning machine can be a hundred times faster than ordinary spinning workers. Why don't you let someone demonstrate it to us?" Someone said to Zhang Qingfeng.

"Yes, let's see, if we can really achieve the speed you said, no, as long as it is half and half the speed, I am willing to pay for it." Other merchants also said.

Hearing what a group of businessmen said, Zhang Qingfeng nodded, and then said, "Okay, I'll let someone demonstrate it to everyone."

Then he said to a young man beside him, "Yang Hui, go and demonstrate it to everyone."

Yang Hui is also a child of the Yang family, and he is in charge of the spinning machine.

Hearing Zhang Qingfeng's words, the young man named Yang Hui agreed, and then asked several workers to connect the hydraulic drive shaft, and then, under his operation, the wheels of the spinning machine began to rotate at a constant speed.

Then, the pulley belt drives the drum to rotate.

Subsequently, more than 30 tiny yarns are spun out, and these yarns are connected to vertical spindles, and as the spindles rotate, each spindle is also rapidly formed.

"This... so fast."

"This is too fast..."

Seeing the situation in front of them, Zhang Qingfeng didn't need to continue to say that many people have already realized the power of this spinning machine.

"Everyone, how are you?" Zhang Qingfeng asked everyone with a smile.

"Master Yang, this is really unbelievable. I have never seen such a fast spinning machine." A businessman said to Zhang Qingfeng in admiration.

"That's right. Ordinary people can't spin a few spindles in a day. There is no way to compare with this spinning machine." Another businessman also said.

"Master Yang, I want to buy a few spinning machines like this. Is it okay?" A businessman asked Zhang Qingfeng.

"Everyone, this matter is not urgent. This is just a spinning machine. There is also a loom over there. I will take everyone to have a look." Zhang Qingfeng said to everyone.

Afterwards, Zhang Qingfeng led people to another workshop.

"Look, this is the new type of loom I'm talking about. I named it the shuttle loom. The speed of weaving is dozens of times faster than that of ordinary people." Zhang Qingfeng said to everyone.

In Chinese history, the rise of the weaving industry was mainly due to the invention of the loom by Huang Daopo, which made Songjiang Prefecture a textile center.

Now, Huang Daopo has not yet been born, and most people weave with ordinary waist looms. The efficiency of this kind of loom is very low, and the shuttle loom can throw out hundreds of blocks of this kind of loom.

Historically, the inventors of the flying shuttle made weaving very fast, but were slowed down by spinning.

Later, people improved the spinning process, and finally the spinning jenny was invented.

Under the watchful eyes of all the businessmen, Zhang Qingfeng had someone operate the shuttle loom for everyone to demonstrate.

Under the gaze of everyone, the shuttle of the flying shuttle loom quickly shuttles through the dense yarn, which has a great visual impact.

Under the rapid movement of the shuttle, it is visible to the naked eye that a piece of exquisite cloth is quickly formed.

Laymen may not understand what this means, but anyone who knows something about weaving will be dumbfounded.

Because this speed is too scary.

Many people also noticed that the cloth woven by this loom was more than two meters wide, which was simply amazing.

In ancient times, due to the limitations of textile technology and machinery, the width of woven fabrics was limited. Most of the fabrics were less than one meter wide, about [-] to [-] centimeters.

Don't say that these people have never seen or heard of this kind of cloth over two meters.

Of course, it’s not that the ancients couldn’t weave such cloth, and weaving such a wide cloth is too troublesome and the efficiency is very low, so basically except for a small number of royal workshops, people basically don’t see two-meter-wide cloth.

"What a fast weaving speed."

"This, this, this is too exaggerated..."

A voice of exclamation sounded.
