Chapter 197: Basic Tailor Shop

Upon closer look, the shafts were actually 16. He had seen this before in a book about a retrograde civilization but never tried one himself.

The purpose of this so called loom was to weave cloth and tapestry through interweaving the weft threads over and above the warp using a weaving shuttle.

Siri remembered the threads they have gotten from the secret realm. They could make additional fabrics. Thinking about it, he hadn’t sewn or knit his Master a single piece of spare cloth because the sewing machine was taken away by the stingy system.

In the midst of his brooding, he saw the other equipment, a spinning wheel and a ½ and 2 meter spiked table full of detachable thin wooden bobbins. Siri only did a quick check before he left the room.

As much as he wanted to stay, he had no choice but to go out. He could utilize the night drying the leathers.

Li Chunhua also did the same and both went to inspect the remaining rooms.

The Drying Room was very simple, there was a 2x1 meter 3-layers Oven, both of its sides had small inner chamber for the firewood, a thin metal vent that was clamped on the wall for the smoke to pass through and released outside, below the oven was heart was an ash pit.

Four wooden toggling frames full of finger sized holes and a small basket of wooden clamps to secure the stretch hides were a meter beside it, and a beam two feet from the ceiling implanted with [Air Drying Hooks], where the fleshed and dehaired hides should be hang.

[Low-Temperature Convection Oven

-Helps to regulate the fire temperature and reduced 25% Time in drying hides and tree barks.]

Tree barks? They can be made into leather too?

(A/N: Majority of the vegan leather is less durable and time consuming than animal leather. Well, in real life...)

Li Chunhua reread the system prompt to make sure that it was not illusion.

The toggles and air dying hooks also have the special effects of reducing the drying time by 15% and 10% respectively. Li Chunhua had no idea how much time a hide would need to completely dry, Brother Siri should know about it. Li Chunhua took a last glance before closing the door.

The workshop, which was Siri’s favorite, there was a wooden desk, [Hand Crank Sewing Machine (+)] can be used to sew 3rd Class or gold-grade fabric material and below, two wooden mannequins and a four-layer cabinet drawers which contained various tools such as shear, seam ripper, rotary cutter, stitching awl, one set of harness needles and many more.

She can choose to add more tools but the system demanded she build a blacksmith workshop first to forge them.

The system also offered for an upgrade option and Li Chunhua who noticed the Elf’s whole attention was fixated on the small machine and directly spent 5 units of wood, 2 metal blocks, and 3 silver coins to upgrade it into a [Pedal-Operated Treadle Sewing Machine]. If she wanted to add another sewing machine, a blacksmith workshop is required.

If she decided to build the blacksmith, there are only three buildings opportunities left.

She should have someone mine again because her stocks of metal were dwindling.

"Master, thank you so much."

Li Chunhua smiled because she knew that Brother Siri love the sewing machine from the secret realm so much but it was taken away by the system.

She saw the elf hugged the machine and rubbed his cheeks on the table for a few seconds before standing and sizing her up.

"Brother Siri, is there any problem?" Li Chunhua tilted her head before looking down at her clothes wondering what’s bothering the Elf.

"Master, after I’m done assigning roles and teaching them. I’m going to measure your size so I can make dresses for you." The Elf replied.

"Speaking of which, I have some designs in my mind." She missed the disciple uniforms of their sect which were very comfortable and can accommodate her unladylike and ruffian behaviors.

Unfortunately, she didn’t possess the crafting skills to reproduce them but with a fairy godmother around, Li Chunhua should have no worries.

"If you have some specific designs you wanted me to make. You can draw them on the papers first, Master." Siri responded before he recalled an important matter, "By the way, Master, I have some extracted essences stored in the warehouse. I can raise the chumpet crop you wanted a few days ago."

Although he can only allocate a small amount, since the chumpet was only a first class crop, the remaining 20 ml should be enough for few seeds it to mature within 3 days.

The basic farm was different from the ordinary field. There was no need for weeding, dusting the stubble. After they harvested the crops, the field was ready for another round of sowing and planting.

The Crimson Nectarine seed had already been planted, in a small wooden planter, once it becomes a sapling tomorrow, he will transfer it to the field.

Upon the Elf’s words, Li Chunhua was reminded of their bountiful harvest. "Oh, right, I got something for you."

She handed the pack of chumpet seeds first to Siri before she gave him the peats.

Siri didn’t recognized the blocks of spongy soil and asked Li Chunhua of its uses. Li Chunhua used Player Green Thumb’s words this afternoon of peat being a fertilizer.

Siri’s mind generated some ideas after listening and planned to place a layer of peat later before he plants new batch of seeds.

"Is there more Master?"

"Yes." Li Chunhua laid a waterproof fabric on the ground and neatly stacked the peat like legos over each other.

When Li Chunhua stopped, Siri thought the surprise was done, more than dozens of the essence crystals appeared resembling the ones that kitchen cook gave.

They went to the boss lair together?

The Elf pictured out the two together bonding and making PDA moves, shouting cringe romantic lines amidst near-death situations, but the imaginative mental scenarios burst into bubbles when he recalled someone’s orientation.

Siri’s protective mother hen instincts calmed down.

And there’s no need to worry about his Master at all. Even his most beautiful face couldn’t compare to a single loaf of ordinary bread in front of her. He only needs to mind those annoying bees.

"It seems like if we need to find some essence, we need to find and shop...I mean explore the bosses’ lairs." Li Chunhua spoke making the Elf pulling him back to reality.

"Master, what level are those bosses you defeated?" Siri arranged the crystals carefully into another square fabric. With these additional crystals, he can make the rest of the crops and even those trees mature within a week.

It’s so nice having a Master around whose was a walking treasure magnet.

"I forgot." Li Chunhua replied while helping the Elf in tying the fabric into bundles. She was only interested in copper coins and food items that dropped.

As for the monsters, she only remembered them by their nicknames, The ’Me, Always Angry’ Huge Blue Dude, the one that got swept away and screamed the most beautiful ’Ah!’ and the most miserable ice making machine or better remembered as the melted Big Boss Olaf.
