Chapter 227 The Clothes Have Attributes

Chapter 227: Chapter 223: The Clothes Have Attributes

There were five garments in total; it seemed five different materials had been used this time.

The clothes had no special patterns or designs, nor were they interwoven with special materials like gold or silver thread.

Lin Feng asked curiously, "What materials were used for these?"

Gu Yuxi explained, "These five garments used five different materials: cotton, linen, silk, polyester, and wool.

We also have some composite fabrics, but the clothes for those haven’t been made yet."

"Which material do you feel makes the most comfortable clothes?"

Gu Yuxi thought for a moment and said, "After the clothes were made, many people tried them on.

How should I put it... each has its own characteristics. If we’re talking about comfort, cotton, silk, and wool are definitely better.

However, the linen and polyester garments are more durable, making them suitable for work clothes.

I feel the clothes from the composite materials will probably be even better."

Hu Xia picked up the cotton garment and said, "This type of cotton is suitable for underwear. It’s absorbent and comfortable to wear.

Silk is good for formal wear and sleepwear, wool is best for outerwear, and it’s just as Sister Yuxi said for linen and polyester."

Zhao Shiyun remained silent, her face slightly flushed as she stared at the silk garment, seemingly lost in thought.

Just then, Lin Feng picked up the cotton garment, and its properties appeared before his eyes.

[Cotton Garment: Possesses strong absorbency.]

It was a rather unremarkable description. A normal cotton garment should have this property anyway; the special effect was simply that its absorbency was enhanced.

He wasn’t disappointed by the ordinary special attribute. It was just a prototype, so his expectations couldn’t be too high.

He checked the other four garments, and they were all similar to the cotton one.

[Woolen Garment: Possesses powerful insulation.]

[Linen Garment: Possesses excellent durability.]

[Silk Garment: Possesses exceptional comfort.]

[Polyester Garment: Possesses strong corrosion resistance.]

These special attributes were clearly just enhanced versions of the materials’ inherent properties.

’It seems that while the clothes made with this technology have special effects, they’re completely different from what I initially guessed.’

Gu Yuxi asked, "Boss, how should we price the clothes made from these materials?"

Lin Feng thought for a moment and asked, "What’s the production cost for these fabrics? Is it more expensive than the materials we’ve been buying?"

"It’s cheaper than buying fabric directly. The cost is 10% lower, mainly because you pay the workers such high wages, Boss."

Gu Yuxi had calculated that if it weren’t for the high wages, they could reduce the fabric production cost by 30%.

In other words, 20% of that cost was going directly from the boss to the workers’ wages.

"In that case, never mind. We don’t need to raise the prices for clothes made with these fabrics.

We can discuss pricing again once we’ve produced the special fabrics."

"Okay. As for the special fabrics, it will take some time. We’re currently studying that weaving equipment to figure out how to produce them."

Lately, the Clothing Workshop had been developing quite well. With the guidance of the masters, the employees had made great progress.

The high-end custom-made clothes, in particular, meant the Clothing Workshop was no longer a parasite leeching off Lin Xian Village.

After returning to the Clothing Workshop, Gu Yuxi discussed weaving some special fabrics with the master artisans to see what the resulting clothes would be like.

"Xiaogu, this place of yours is truly magical. The clothes you make were already special.

I never expected that the clothes made with fabric you produce yourselves would be even more special.

I wonder, if the raw materials were also your own, would they be even more special?"

Gu Yuxi said with a smile, "Master Xie, see how magical our Lin Xian Village is? Why don’t you stay and work here?

Our Lin Xian Village is the best place for retirement. The food we eat and the water we drink every day can make a person healthy.

Plus, the environment is great, the housing is comfortable, the work isn’t tiring, and the pay is high..."

"Stop! Xiaogu, you really never miss a chance to try and get us to stay.

But you know my family and friends are all in the Imperial Capital. It’s impossible for me to stay here and work.

From now on, whenever I can find the time, I’ll come over and help you train your employees, alright?"

Xie Tinglan actually loved the life in Lin Xian Village, but some things weren’t as simple as just wanting them.

It was strange sometimes. Some people tried everything they could to get into Lin Xian Village and failed, while others were invited but couldn’t stay.

Liu Fengxian, who was beside them, said, "As for us old folks, you shouldn’t be thinking about getting us to stay and work for you. It would be more practical to find a few sharp kids to learn the craft from us."

"Indeed. We’re not like young people. We have large families behind us; it’s impossible to move to Lin Xian Village."

Gu Yuxi nodded. "I understand. If any of you teachers have apprentices, you could introduce them to us in Lin Xian Village."

"So that’s what you were after. Speaking of apprentices, I might actually be able to introduce you to some.

I just don’t know if they’d be willing to come here."

Most of the apprentices they had trained were doing well. They would be too embarrassed to introduce any apprentices with subpar skills to Lin Xian Village.

"Then thank you, Masters."

Gu Yuxi was thrilled. With introductions from them, the chances of finding skilled tailors to come over were high.

And who knows, maybe they could really gather artisans specializing in all the great traditional embroidery and brocade techniques.

Although the Clothing Workshop had a special effect bonus, without skilled artisans, it was still very difficult to create special clothing.

At the very least, the current Lin Xian Village Clothing Workshop was still a small fry in the fashion world.

Thankfully, it had the name of Lin Xian Village to back it up, which was why their development had been so smooth.

"Xiaogu, we’re preparing to use that set of equipment to try and produce some Cloud brocade."

"Ah! Really?" Gu Yuxi asked excitedly.

Cloud brocade! That was the fabric used to make the Yellow Robe, an absolutely special material.

"Yes, but its production requires quite a few materials, and we’ll also need you to find someone who understands the equipment to help."

"None of that is a problem. I’ll send two technicians to you in a bit. If you need any materials, just ask me for them directly!"

’I shouldn’t just send technicians,’ Gu Yuxi thought. ’I should also send some employees to help. This is a great learning opportunity.’

The masters also felt that the day of their departure was not far off.

Before they left, they wanted to try making some special fabrics to see what kind of effects clothes made from them would have.

Gu Yuxi probably never imagined the wave of pleasant surprises the Clothing Workshop was about to receive.

...

「Jiangcheng City」

A group of severely injured patients was transferred to the Municipal People’s Hospital.

A group of doctors was staring at the examination reports, their faces full of doubt, thinking there was something wrong with their eyes.

"Are you sure the equipment isn’t malfunctioning, or that the patients’ conditions weren’t mixed up?"

"There’s absolutely no mistake. This was the diagnosis given by those doctors in Lin Xian Village at the time."

Now the doctors at the municipal hospital were even more confused. They had heard that the doctors there were all experts and professors with top-tier medical skills.

If one or two had made a mistake, it could be a case of having high standards but low ability, but it was impossible for all of them to be wrong.

Yet the diagnoses they had provided were completely different from the examination reports these doctors were seeing now.

"I still think there’s a problem here. Look at these blood vessels. They clearly look damaged."

"Indeed, they do look like they were severed. I don’t understand why they’ve healed."

"Let’s put that question aside for now. These strange healings must be re-treated.

Otherwise, the patients will definitely have problems later on."

Despite saying that, they were still very curious. What had been used to make the wounds heal so quickly?

Moreover, a damaged artery had healed on its own. This completely defied medical logic.

"Do you think... it might have something to do with Lin Xian Village?"

"That’s a real possibility!"

"A place that produced miracle drugs like the Clearing Heat and Stopping Cough Pills and Qi Replenishing Soup... it wouldn’t be surprising if they also had a medicine that accelerates wound healing."

The group stopped discussing and began to deliberate on how to handle the patients’ healed wounds.

They soon ran into a problem. They didn’t know what medicine had been used to heal the wounds.

Now, they needed to reopen the wounds to realign the injured areas, but their own treatment methods couldn’t achieve the same healing effect.

Their research revealed that it wasn’t just the surface wounds that were healing; even the damaged arteries had begun to mend.

Even nerves, tendons, and muscles were all healing automatically. It was simply miraculous.

The patient with the thigh injury, in particular, was recovering at an astonishing rate.

With no other choice, they could only report the situation and hope to obtain the medicine the original doctors had used.

When the leaders of Jiangcheng City’s medical system learned of the situation, they immediately contacted Lin Xian Village to inquire about the medicine used.

According to the reports, the restorative effect of this medicine on wounds was simply too powerful.

It could actually heal injuries that were previously unrecoverable, all without surgical sutures.

「Lin Xian Village」

A group of doctors gathered around the documents sent from Jiangcheng City, their expressions like they had seen a ghost.

"Dr. Wu, are you sure the effect of this hemostatic powder is to stop bleeding?"

Wu Xianlin was also stunned. He thought back carefully before saying, "I think it also had an effect of accelerating wound healing."

"Next time Boss Lin gives you a prescription, you have to get every detail about its function exactly right.

It’s obvious this hemostatic powder doesn’t just stop bleeding; it also has an incredibly powerful wound-healing effect.

This power is unbelievable. Just like the Clearing Heat and Stopping Cough Pills, it completely defies logic."

"Indeed. If we could utilize the healing effect of this prescription, treating many conditions would become extremely simple."

They saw that its healing effect could even mend nerves. The implications were enormous.

The appearance of this powder would change the way surgical diseases are treated, making many previously difficult surgical conditions simple to handle.

For example, injuries like ruptured Achilles tendons or other tendons, which previously required surgical sutures, could now be left to heal naturally with the powder.

Wu Xianlin said, "We’ve been so busy with drug production that we never got around to experimenting with the hemostatic powder.

If you have time, could you help us research the specific effects of this powder?"

"No problem. We’ll handle this experiment for you."

The doctors hadn’t expected such a great opportunity. ’Coming to Lin Xian Village was absolutely the right choice.’

Of course, Wu Xianlin was well aware of the benefits that could be gained from researching this hemostatic powder.

But the doctors in the Medicine House were truly spread too thin. The production of the two medicines left them without a single spare moment.

Besides, as doctors of Lin Xian Village, they didn’t really have a great need for the kind of fame this would bring.

’We’re not planning to leave Lin Xian Village, so what’s the use of being so famous?’

After leaving the Cancer Research Institute, Wu Xianlin reported the situation with the hemostatic powder to his boss, Lin Feng.

After listening to Wu Xianlin’s account, Lin Feng was also surprised that the hemostatic powder’s accelerated healing function could treat so many traumatic injuries.

’A wound is a wound... I guess any injury technically counts as a wound. That logic seems sound.’

When it came to things from his mission rewards, if the literal description said it was effective, then it was truly effective.

He suspected that even if you chopped off a hand, as long as you aligned the wound, the hemostatic powder could probably make it grow back.

Of course, the specific extent of its effects would have to be researched by the doctors.

He had heard that the Clearing Heat and Stopping Cough Pills had been applied to various diseases by those doctors, resulting in numerous medical papers that benefited many medical students.

This hemostatic powder would surely benefit a great number of doctors in the future, just like the Clearing Heat and Stopping Cough Pills.

Lin Feng then noticed that the Medicine House’s mission had refreshed.

’It seems the Medicine House’s missions really are related to using medicine to cure illnesses and save people.’
