Compared with the two, clothes made from animal fibers not only have superior texture, but are also much better than plant fibers in terms of warmth and breathability.
How much does a cashmere coat cost, and how much does a cotton coat cost?
Moreover, the processing process of wool fabric is complicated, and the maintenance is also troublesome. It is easy to pill due to friction, and it is easy to shrink after being washed once. People who are fastidious will not want to wear it again after wearing it once or twice...
These shortcomings may be unfriendly to commoners, but to nobles, aren't they exactly what they want to pursue?
The worth of aristocrats is reflected in complicated processes and luxurious consumption.
Although it has many shortcomings and is easy to break, it is expensive to make and comfortable to wear. This is what can show your noble status.
Those luxurious nobles will definitely pay for it.
When all nobles are proud to wear "the softest and most expensive fine cashmere sweaters", will she still look like a commoner wearing this kind of fabric?
No!
Instead, those people would think that she was the real aristocrat because she was the first to wear it!
The night is long and the oil lamp is dimly lit.
Luo Wei dug out an old piece of linen cloth, used a wooden stick to bake it into charcoal, and carefully carved on the numbness.
The steps of cleaning wool, the method of removing grease, the improved tools for carding wool, the process of twisting and weaving cloth... When the linen cloth was full, the moon had already risen in the sky.
This piece of linen was just a draft, and when she bought the parchment, she would have to copy it again with quill and ink.
When this thing is sold, the large amount of money she needs to pretend to be a noble will be replenished in time.
Luo Wei stretched out and was extremely grateful to herself for loving vibrato in her previous life.
She watched the videos of craft bloggers a lot. Her friends laughed at her at the time because she didn't learn anything useful but learned a lot of useless stuff.
Looking at it now, she didn’t learn anything useful. Not only did she learn it, she also made a lot of money!
It's just that many of the "essential skills for traveling through ancient times" that she saw were useless.
For example, refining salt, calcining glass, making mercury mirrors, and preparing explosives.
The alchemy in this world is very powerful, and these things have been studied long ago. However, the formula has always been in the hands of the great nobles, and the products produced are only for the use of the princes and nobles, and are not allowed to be sold.
But it doesn't matter. With these formulas, she can make them for herself or secretly sell them on the black market to make some money.
As long as she doesn't make a big deal about it, no one will pursue her for secretly crafting contraband, which just in time strengthens her aristocratic status.
Isn’t it normal for nobles to have these things?
The oil lamp burned for most of the night, and there was not much oil left.
Luo Wei blew out the small flame and retracted into the bed with smooth movements.
The next day, magic pattern class.
Today we changed to a larger classroom. Everyone was sitting in the empty classroom. There was a square sand table in front of everyone.
It's not a sand table for simulating terrain, it's just a table of sand, with a small smooth wooden stick placed next to the sand table.
Luo Wei saw the classmates around her skillfully picking up small wooden sticks and scratching on the sand table, and began to think about the possibility of her getting rid of the white paper.
I just don’t know if creating something like this that will shake the foundation of religion and aristocratic status will lead to death for her.
Forget it, forget it, let's just sit there for now.
While thinking, a thin old man with curly brown hair and shriveled skin walked in with a parchment roll under his arm.
This was the official second day of school and their first magic pattern class, so the first thing the thin old man did when he walked into the classroom was to introduce himself.
"Good morning children, I am your magic pattern teacher, Claude Mike, you can call me Professor Mike."
"Good day, Professor Mike!"
The students stood up and bowed.
"Okay, please sit down." Professor Mike nodded, spread out the parchment on the table, and began his lecture.
"What is a magic pattern? A magic pattern is a container for absorbing magic power. It is also the imprint left by the gods using their divine power in the human world before they ascended to heaven."
"By dismantling and carving these imprints, we can capture the magical elements scattered in the world, and then control and use them."
"There are many uses for magic patterns. The most common use is enchantment. For example, engraving the magic pattern of wind on a knight's sword can speed up the knight's swing of the sword."
"The second is teleportation. Magic patterns can connect space channels. Carving magic patterns in different locations allows us to complete long-distance travel."
"The last thing is summoning. The summoning magic pattern can not only summon monsters, but also the undead. The legendary holy magician can also summon the projection of God."
"Of course, the latter two kinds of magic patterns are courses that can only be taken by intermediate and advanced magic apprentices. What you have to learn now is the drawing of basic magic patterns."
Luo Wei listened very carefully. Professor Mike's lecture was clear and interesting.
In the memory of the original owner, there were magic legends circulating everywhere in this continent. Everyone believed in magic, but no one had seen it.
But she can travel through time, and magic and gods might actually exist.
"Okay kids, lay out your sand table, I'm going to start talking about the structure of the basic magic pattern."
Mike on the podium picked up a talc pen: "Magic patterns are the compression of spatial structures, so we must first learn to draw plane geometry."
He turned around and drew a row of geometric shapes on the board.
"The geometric figures used to draw magic patterns are divided into four categories, rectangle, triangle, circle and polygon."
The students below also picked up small wooden sticks and wrote and drew on the sand table.
Luo Wei also picked up the small wooden stick.
I never expected that after time travel, I would have to learn mathematics from primary school. This magic pattern class is the predecessor of mathematics class, right?
Professor Mike continued: "After we learn to draw geometric figures, we also need to calculate the proportions of magic patterns before we can engrave them on different carriers."
As he spoke, he drew a six-pointed star on the board, marking one of its segments as one foot, and a square, marking its side length as six inches.
"Now, can anyone tell me, if I were to carve this six-pointed star onto a square stone slab, what would be the longest line segment in inches?"
The student below immediately picked up a pen to calculate. After calculating for a while, he raised his head and looked at the wooden board with confused eyes, as if he was reading some heavenly book.
Professor Mike waited and asked again: "Can anyone figure it out?"
There was dead silence in the classroom.
Many people lowered their heads and shrank their necks like quails.
Suddenly, Vina raised her hand.
"Oh, lovely child, do you want to answer my question?" Professor Mike asked in surprise.
Wei Na glanced at Luo Wei: "I'm sorry, Professor Mike, I don't know either, but I want to recommend someone to you."
Professor Mike's smile faded a little: "So, who do you want to recommend?"
"My friend Luo Wei, she is from a noble family and is proficient in arithmetic. I think she will be able to answer your question."
After speaking, Wei Na looked at Luo Wei and said with a proud smile: "Dear, tell the professor your answer quickly!"
She had observed that Luo Wei had not drawn a grid since just now, which showed that she did not know the grid algorithm at all.
The grid algorithm is the simplest way to calculate products. You must first draw horizontal and vertical lines on paper to form many grids, and then calculate the product by counting the grid nodes.
You don’t even know how to do the grid algorithm, you pariah, let’s see how you pretend to be this time!
Vina thought maliciously.
