Chapter 169: Harvest Cotton

The world of the lake, grassland.

A brand new Martin-3 flying backpack was assembled.

After more than half an hour of test flight, the flight backpack was in good condition and the control system was stable. It was a brand new and easy-to-use flight device.

Due to the last accident, the "Five Hundred Days Traveling around the World Plan" that was interrupted for several days was soon able to continue moving forward.

But before that!

Xu Ming learned his lesson. He believed that subsequent explorations must be adjusted, otherwise similar accidents may occur.

One, you can't continue to go south anymore.

Especially when exploring the temperature near 60 degrees south latitude, the temperature is close to freezing point, and grass plants become sparse, gradually becoming deserted, and even no grass grows.

The cold and strong windy climate made him unable to go deeper south.

"It is impossible to go straight through the South Pole, unless you drive a fully sealed aircraft, and there are no plants above 60 degrees south latitude, only ice, snow and stones, and you can't harvest anything."

"You can only fly east or west near the 60-degree south latitude line, go around the back of this planet, and then fly from south to north, similar to going around a long '8' circle in the middle."

"When you return to the origin of grassland hills, it means that the global exploration from south to north and then from north to south is over. The "Five Hundred Days Traveling the World Plan" is half completed, and then it will do global exploration in the east and west directions."

The path to exploration was slightly adjusted.

Second, you must take good measures to keep warm, but you cannot wear too much clothes to increase the burden.

"The reason why the Martin 3 failed last time was a strong wind. In addition, I was wearing too many clothes, three layers inside and three layers outside, and a set of quilt coats, weighing at least ten pounds, which added a lot of burden to the engine."

"In addition, because I wear too much, after the failure, I reacted very slowly, made decisions without decisiveness and speed, and even became busy and made mistakes... I wear too much is also an important reason."

"So you have to reduce the number and layer of clothes you wear, reduce the burden and increase flexibility."

The problem is that if you wear less clothes, your ability to keep warm will decrease. If you get drilled by the cold wind, you will not be frozen into a dog?

If the limbs are stiff and the nerves are numb, the flexibility will decrease significantly, and it will become more dull.

Unless you are guaranteed to keep warm, the number of clothes and layers are reduced...but these two are contradictory. Can you achieve both at the same time?

Yes!

Xu Ming knows it's OK!

That is the kind of spider web cotton grown on the giant cloud cotton tree. As long as you collect it, make it into fabric, and then make it into clothes, it does not need to be too thick. It can be kept warm enough when worn on the body.

It is also windproof, waterproof, and strong and durable.

In addition, the surface of the flight backpack is also wrapped with a layer of spider web cotton fabric to protect the equipment from working normally and prevent it from being frozen.

Xu Ming estimated that after using spider web cotton, the total weight of the clothes he wore and the fabric that wrapped the equipment should not exceed ten kilograms, which added a very small burden to the flying backpack and could completely ensure normal work.

Thinking of this, sharpening a knife does not take any effort to chop wood. He plans to spend three to four days to solve the problem of clothes first and then continue to explore.

I raised my head and found that it was still during the day in the world.

So after filling the fuel tank of the flight backpack, he opened a time and space vortex, and Xu Ming immediately came to the clouds and cotton woods.

Then, before dark, he spent more than three hours picking the nearly mature spider web cotton growing in the "cotton lily muzzles" of man-eating flowers, and picked more than 600 balls in total.

Although there are only more than 600 balls, it seems that there are very few cotton balls, but each ball of cotton weighs more than two pounds (it will be reduced a lot after drying).

After being expanded, the layer has a diameter of more than ten meters, a thin "spider web", with an area of ​​about 80 square meters.

Suppose that each hundred balls are superimposed together and make an 80-square-meter piece of fabric, and multiply it by six, which means that a total of 480-square-meter fabric can be obtained.

With so many fabrics, how many pieces of clothes can you make? How many pieces of blankets can you make? Can you make a lot of thick quilts?

Xu Ming felt that so much fabric should be able to wrap all the clothes he wore in spring, summer, autumn and winter, and the quilt, pillows and sheets he used to sleep, and it would only be more or less!

For him personally, it is definitely 100% enough.

But it's not enough to have cotton alone.

Xu Ming also had to buy some dye online, dye the fabric, buy a cotton gin to compact the fabric, as well as electric irons, sewing machines, etc.... He wanted to buy a lot of equipment.

Of course, he can only dye the spider web cotton, roll it into a solid fabric, and then hand over the fabric to a professional tailor. He just needs to make a request.

"The toughness of spider web cotton is very strong, and even a multi-functional saber cannot be broken. It is no problem to act as a primary bulletproof vest. I am afraid that the tailor can't cut it with scissors. It's better to use time and space to cut it myself. Maybe I have to learn to make clothes myself."

never mind!

My head is a little messy and I don’t think so much. I will buy dyes, small cotton gins on the Internet first, and make sure that there is spider web fabric in my hand. Let’s talk about the rest at that time!

Thinking of this.

Xu Ming returned to the master bedroom of 701, took out his mobile phone, picked it up for more than half an hour, and ordered various dyes in various colors, including cotton gins, electric irons, sewing machines and other items on Baotao.com.

After buying the stuff.

Thinking of what happened in the afternoon, when he entered the micro-chat, Xu Ming sent a message to Chen Feiman:

"Shop Manager Chen, I met your dad this afternoon, but what happened to your dad? I suddenly asked me to chat with you when I have time, and occasionally I went to play with you... Are we not ordinary shop owners and customers? When did you date in private? Did your dad have any misunderstandings about our relationship?"

He told Chen Feiman in detail what he encountered this afternoon, hoping that she would give her an explanation and explanation.

"Sorry, Mr. Xu, my dad is a man with a lot of imagination and has some brain problems. I hope you don't mind..."

Ancient boudoir style bedroom.

Lying on the bed, Chen Feiman was very happy at first about receiving the micro-chat message from Xu Ming, but after reading what he said, he immediately knew what was going on. He was immediately embarrassed and upset. She explained to her father several times, and had never happened to Mr. Xu, but he just didn't believe it!

During dinner today, he also said that "Xiao Xu" would come to her and let her give him more opportunities.

At that time, she appeared to be the ancient well, but for some reason, she felt happy in her heart, and she had a faint expectation and longing.

It turned out that the stinky brother was still a little interested in her, not so hopeless.

She had a serious skepticism about herself, but it was not completely invalid in front of him. It was just that the other party was not very honest and kept her good feelings in her heart... Such a boy would not work. If you like it, you should speak it bravely. What if you are accepted?

Now listen to Xu Ming's words.

Suddenly, a basin of cold water was poured into a cool pot.

It turned out that it was all her own father making trouble! She thought the other party was trying to date her... she almost made her lose her a lot!

Daddy, I almost got you hurt!

There is also this straight man who has not changed his nature at all, which is even more hateful!

She complained and scolded in her heart, but she explained politely during the micro chat and apologized several times.

"Master Chen, don't talk about your dad that way. I think he is quite normal. He has no problem with his brain. He just has any misunderstandings about me. I hope you can help clarify and let him not misunderstand it anymore, or change someone to deliver the goods next time...this is enough."

"No problem, I will explain it to my dad."

Chen Feiman verbally agreed, but she wanted to complain and explain it! Her father is a lunatic and has already determined that the two had some relationship. Chen Hui, an employee in the store, recently spread rumors about Xu Ming after seeing that morning.

This caused her to be a little strange inside the Chen family. There were several female members who spoke a little sarcastic.

However, no one came to accuse her, and several uncles even suppressed those bad reputations.

After all, she is a great hero who brings hundreds of kilograms of sand gold to the family! It involves tens of millions of benefits! With such achievements, no one is qualified to accuse her unless he can get more gold.

"Then thank you, Manager Chen. It's very late. Let's take a break early, goodbye."

"bye"

The two ended the conversation.

...

Alas ~

Chen Feiman sighed and pulled the quilt over and covered it on his face.

In fact, she also wanted to be serious and clarify the misunderstanding that the influence was spreading, but for some reason, she didn't have the motivation to do it.

Because what happened that night was not very touched.

However, in the past few days, there have been many very clear memories in her mind.

There is a picture of competition and competition.

There is a scene where two people divide their work and cooperate, one person pretends to be a sand gold and the other person brings away sand gold.

There is also that beautiful crystal necklace that she has worn around her neck and likes it very much.

As for the couch that I slept with me... Recently, she would think of that scene every day in her mind, and even occasionally had some very shameful dreams.

"ah!!"

She kicked the quilt in annoyance, and a buzzing voice in the quilt said:

"Bastard, bastard!"
