- After visiting the front store, Zhao Hao went to the huge dyeing workshop in the back.
In the dyeing workshop, the most eye-catching thing is naturally the hundreds of wooden frames more than two feet high. The shelves are covered with colorful fabrics, like long flags, fluttering in the breeze.
Zhao Hao often sees this scene in movies and TV dramas. It usually involves killing someone or having an affair. Anyway, these scenes are not suitable for children. Zhihu Zhihu, what exactly is there?
Ruan Fan told Zhao Hao that this big shelf is called a cloth drying rack, which is used to dry printed and dyed fabrics.
Zhao Hao put away his charming thoughts and bypassed the cloth drying rack full of stories. Then I saw hundreds of large vats, neatly placed in the open space. A wooden board is placed on each vat.
No need for Ruan Fan to introduce it, Zhao Hao knew it was a dye vat. Because he saw some workers taking the cloth out of the vat and putting it on the pallet to drain the water.
There is also a row of smooth wooden stakes buried behind the tank. Workers put the water-controlled cloth on the wooden piles. Insert a short wooden stick into it and twist it to remove the water. The water flowing on the ground is colorful and eye-catching instantly.
Zhao Haoxin said that it is a blessing that there is no Ministry of Environmental Protection, otherwise you would have to be punished and unable to take care of yourself.
It was only then that he discovered that the middle of the yard was high and the sides were low. This way, water dripping from the cloth drying rack or water leaching from the dye vat would flow to the culverts on both sides of the workshop, preventing the entire yard from being muddy all day long.
??~~
After passing this open-air area, we entered the fire-burning shed.
Under the greenhouse, there were dozens of stoves, and hot water was boiling in a large pot on the table.
The stove greenhouse is also divided into two areas: left and right.
The pot on the left is boiling water. The bare-armed worker carefully put the rolls of white Songjiang cloth into the pot, and then gently stirred it with a wooden stick. It looked like a huge white peony blooming in the pot.
Ruan Fan told Zhao Hao that before dyeing, the cloth needs to be boiled in water to remove the 'sizing power' of the cloth It actually means to remove the starch component in the cotton cloth, making it soft and easy to dye, and will not fade for a long time. The boiled white cloth must be sent to water control to dry before it can be used again.
Zhao Hao looked at the stove on the right. There was a dyeing master wearing a robe and apron, holding a basin and adding mixed paint to the pot.
He has watched "The Great Dyeing House" and knows that the reason why the dyeing master can eat white-flour steamed buns is because he masters the formula of the pigment. There are thousands of people in this workshop, and all the steps cannot be hidden from anyone. Only the color mixing step is done by the master behind closed doors.
In order to keep it secret, they would ask their apprentices to put many useless ingredients in the house so that you can¡¯t guess which ingredients he used and how much of each item he used.
After the dye is mixed, some people directly put the white cloth into the pot and cook it together. This is called "boiling dyeing". But most of them still wait for the dye liquid to cool down before adding it to the dye vat for dip dyeing.
After the dyed cloth is dried, it must be rinsed two to three times to remove floating colors. In this step, all the water used is female workers.
Zhao Hao is not surprised by this, because since ancient times, the proportion of women working outside the home in Jiangnan has been the highest in the country.
After rinsing, there is the final step - rolling the cloth.
This link largely determines the appearance of the dyed cloth. With good grinding, handmade cotton cloth with a rough surface can become smooth and bright in color, greatly improving its quality. If the grinding is not good, it will be useless no matter how good the dyeing is
Wuhu¡¯s pulp and dyeing industry ranks first in the country, and it is inseparable from the local Jingshan Mountain. The stone produced in it is cold and greasy, and is the best stone grinding material. The Wuhu pulp and dyeing guild even bought two mountains and did not allow outsiders to mine them. This shows the importance of the raw materials for grinding stone.

It¡¯s almost noon after visiting all the procedures.
In fact, Zhao Hao is a layman, what kind of knowledge can he see? It can only be inferred that the Ruan family's production management is very good through the layout of the workshop, the stacking of materials is in order, and the workers are busy but not chaotic.
As for how to dye cloth? Just watch the excitement. I just know that there are many methods here, and every step needs to be checked by experienced craftsmen.
Lunch was served at Ruan Bi¡¯s house.
After taking a nap after dinner, Zhao Hao came out of the guest room to talk to Ruan Bi.
Ruan Bi has already prepared refreshments in the small building near the lake, waiting for Mr. Zhao to arrive.
When Zhao Hao saw that he even sent Ruan Fan away, he knew that the elder had something to say.
¡°Young Master, have you rested?¡± Ruan Bi smiled and served him Huangshan Maofeng, a local product in Huizhou.
"How can you not have a good rest in such a beautiful garden?" Zhao Hao laughed.
"Young Master is so complimentary, so I have just tidied up this place. At best, it can only be considered a comfortable place to live." Ruan Bi said meaningfully: "The fallen leaves must return to their roots. We Hui merchants have been wandering outside for a lifetime, and we are getting old."?is going home. "
"The elder is far away from retirement. I still have to continue to lead the Wuhu industry." Zhao Hao took a sip of Maofeng and felt that the taste was mellow, the aroma was like orchid, and the flavor was profound, and he couldn't help but feel refreshed.
"Young master, you are joking. Your grandfather has been serving as an official for two years. I am the same age as him. How can I not consider retiring?" Ruan Bi sighed softly and said, "It's just that he is not as blessed as Lingzu to have good children and grandchildren." , it¡¯s okay to have a leisurely stroll in the forest without any worries.¡±
Zhao Haoxin said, my grandfather has a lot to worry about. Standing guard at home every day makes me lose weight due to exhaustion.
¡° However, Ruan Bi said that these were for a purpose, so Zhao Hao did not interrupt. Then he followed him and said: "Brother Ruan is smart and capable, and he has studied with the elder for so many years. He will definitely be able to take on the role of 'Yongxing'."
"No." Ruan Bi waved his hand and sighed: "Although this child is not my biological child, I have watched him grow up since he was a child. I have taught him step by step for more than ten years. I know what he is capable of best."
"The waiter has no problem running Yongxing, and he can even lead the dyeing guild." Ruan Bi said, looking at Zhao Hao faintly and said: "Originally, I also thought he could take over. But now, the dyeing in Wuhu My career is facing annihilation, and I dare not let it go."
"The juniors saw everything was prosperous, how could the disaster come from it?" Zhao Hao asked.
"Hahaha, sir, please stop pretending to be confused." Ruan Bi pointed at Zhao Hao with a smile and said, "The one who can put an end to the pulp and dyeing industry in Wuhu is the young master."
"Me?" Zhao Hao pointed at himself, looking confused. In the conscience of heaven and earth, I am so kind-hearted, how could I be misunderstood like this?
"Haha, I heard that Jiangnan Group established a textile company?" Ruan Bi asked with a smile.
"That's right." Zhao Hao nodded and said, "It has a silk company and a cotton spinning company."
¡°What I¡¯m talking about is the cotton spinning company.¡± Ruan Bi said lightly: ¡°I heard that the general manager is Weng Fan, the son of President Weng Lao?¡±
"Yeah." Zhao Hao nodded, thinking that the information was quite good.
"Does the young master know what Weng Fan is doing in Songjiang?" Ruan Bi asked again.
¡°The companies under the group are all independently operated and are responsible for their own profits and losses.¡± Zhao Hao smiled bitterly: ¡°He does not need to report everything to the board of directors.¡±
Secretary Ma knew that this was the young master¡¯s forgetful line. He quickly whispered a few words of reminder in his ear.
ps. There is one more update, but it¡¯s not finished yet, so I have to wait. I'll see the same thing tomorrow morning. In addition, my father-in-law¡¯s birthday is tomorrow and I need to take a day off. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
