After the whole sect traveled to ancient times, I led the rebellion

This Mu Qing always acts like a little adult. Obviously, he is a child like him, but he is so scary.

Wanqi Ziye thought that he hadn't been able to get any sleep these days, so he went to the base to do carpentry work as soon as he opened his eyes.

Wanqi Ziye was exploited by working all day long, and even when he fell asleep, his mind was full of drawings of textile machines.

As a result, Wanqi Ziye wanted to avoid Mu Qing whenever he saw him, for fear that Mu Qing would capture him and force him to do hard labor again one day.

Wanqi Ziye leaned back in his chair and slumped over.

Seeing this, Mu Qing let out a faint smile:

"Cheng Yu and Xu Yu have not yet finished processing the parts of the textile and knitting machines. If we work overtime tonight, we should be able to complete them all."

"it is good."

Wanqi Zixi rubbed her hands. Assembling the textile machine was more of an interest to her than a job.

Wanqi Ziye rolled his eyes when he heard Mu Qing's words.

He knew that there would be no good when this person came.

Wanqi Ziye was extremely reluctant and began to assemble the textile machine under the supervision of Wanqi Zixi and Mu Qing.

The Mohist mechanical technology is sophisticated and advanced, and the degree of completion of this batch of parts is almost the same as those made by machines.

Mu Qing stayed in the base temporarily and completed this batch of textile machines with Wanqi Zixi.

Then she successfully discovered how much Wanqi Ziye disliked her.

"Sister, I'm tired."

Wanqi Ziye waved his hand, attempting to strike.

Wanqi Zixi ignored it and just said:

"This month's salary is with me."

Wanqi Ziye thought that his economic lifeline was firmly in his control, and he had no desire to rest.

Mu Qing looked at Wanqi Ziye's funny behavior.

It was obvious at first glance that he was a naughty child who had never been disciplined. He complained about being tired and miserable. I had never seen such a thing in the Mu Mansion.

Mu Qing felt in his heart that Wanqi Ziye's job was too easy, while secretly thinking about other drawings.

The waterwheel, windmill, and graphite will keep Wanqi Ziye busy for a while.

The Jenny loom relied on disciples of the Mohist school and members of the Gongshu family to polish parts by hand, so it was impossible to complete mass production. However, after the cold winter, more than a dozen looms were produced.

The Jenny machine can achieve high speed operation of 1500-3500pcs/min.

In the future, the efficiency can be further improved by increasing the number of upright spindles to 30 or even 100.

Currently, the Jenny machine version 1.0 has only 18 spindles.

A textile mill can be built with more than a dozen spinning jenny machines spinning simultaneously.

The Jenny loom is mainly used to spin cotton, linen and silk into threads, and the weaving machine then weaves the threads directly into cloth.

Compared to sweaters knitted with hooks and knitting needles, knitting machines, as a product of the second half of the 16th century, are naturally much faster than hand knitting.

The knitting machine drawings provided by Mu Qing were for a foot-operated knitting machine. Due to time constraints, there were only a few knitting machines available.

The winter is extremely cold, and people mostly stay indoors except for going out to buy some necessities.

Yuehong and Hu Miaomiao handled the affairs of Huang County very well, and continued to move forward according to Mu Qing's plan for Huang County.

It should not be a problem to continue building Huang County by starting with the spiritual activities of the people of Huang County.

Mu Qing completely handed over Huang County to Hu Miaomiao.

Yuehong is very efficient in her work. Seeing that the affairs of the government office are becoming more and more complicated, Mu Qing transferred her to Anping.

Mu Qing does not plan to recruit male workers for this textile factory, partly in order to create employment opportunities for Anping women.

Most factories require physical labor, and there is a large gap in strength between men and women, so there are fewer jobs suitable for women.

There is a big gap in the status of men and women in this world, and the factories in Huangxian have hired many female workers from Guangsha.

Coupled with Mu Qing’s previous mobilization banner, women in Huang County are also gradually stepping out of their families and entering factories.

The level of mobilization in Anping needs to be increased.

Working in a textile factory is suitable for careful women.

Women still need to be encouraged to work more, as Anping’s labor force has been a bit stretched after the road construction.

Anping has a large potential female workforce.

The textile factory was equipped with charcoal fire, and when it started working in winter, the workers' welfare was increased and a group of female workers were trained first.

Anping's textile industry market is still blank.

Mu Qing was still waiting to make money from this batch of goods, so naturally he wouldn't waste any time.

Many people in Anping will certainly oppose the fact that the textile factory only recruits female workers.

Just after Mu Qing announced the recruitment information, a group of people were quite dissatisfied with it.

Among them were many educated scholars and some male workers.

Women in the Tianchi Dynasty rarely showed up in public after marriage. In backward counties, there were even women who went out wearing veils or masks.

They advocate the distinction between inside and outside, and the three obediences and four virtues.

The male leads the outside and the female leads the inside.

Men were engaged in politics, fighting in wars, serving in the military, farming, hunting, doing business, etc., while women were at home doing housework, raising silkworms and raising children, etc.

Unmarried girls are not allowed to go out at will.

Whether from the upper class or the lower class, married women would be looked down upon by society if they went out to socialize.

The "Three Obediences" are to obey your father before marriage, obey your husband after marriage, and obey your son after your husband's death.

The "Four Virtues" refer to women's virtue, women's speech, women's appearance, and women's work.

Based on the principles of Three Obediences and Four Virtues, they widely publicized their views in Anping.

"If you ask me, recruiting female workers in this textile factory means forcing them to show their faces in public, which is not in line with morality."

"It's ridiculous that a textile factory recruits female workers. How can women go out to earn money? I don't know what kind of stupidity Mr. Mu has committed."

"Tsk tsk, he is not an adult at all, he is just the same size as my youngest son," a scholar who was drinking in a restaurant approached the person next to him and whispered.

"If that man hears what you said, you will inevitably be thrown into jail," the other scholar said jokingly.

A male worker who was drinking with us also expressed dissatisfaction with the new job openings. After hearing a few words, he also started to complain to the people around him:

"Women, instead of staying at home to take care of the children, want to go out to work.

The girl from the Gao family next door went out to work because the family had no food. I didn’t deprive her of food or drink, alas.”

"My family is the same. They are clamoring to work in a textile factory. I think this textile factory should not be opened. They say they only want female workers. Isn't this looking down on us? Female workers can't do as well as we do."

"That's right. I don't know why textile factories insist on hiring female workers."

"If I find out my wife works in a factory, I will break her legs."

Yuehong did a good job in Huang County, so Mu Qing handed the recruitment task over to Yuehong.

Yuehong came to Anping and brought Grandma Li with her.

She cherishes her current job very much. It was Lord Mu who made her realize that girls like them could also become officials.

The restaurant in Anping belongs to Mu Qing, and it is a channel for Mu Qing to collect information.
