Although there was no grand publicity and Yan Liqiang did not purposely make a big scene, the official grand opening of the Great Han Empire's first woolen mill still created a huge stir in Pingxi Prefecture. Perhaps it shouldn't be referred to as a stir but a spark or an eruption instead.
On the eighth day of the fourth lunar month, around sixty-four wheeled cargo carriages manufactured by the manufacturing bureau in Huanglong County arrived at the Yan Fortress like a long snake. They were transporting the first batch of spinning frames, looms, and tools for cleaning sheep wool. Since then, more spinning frames, looms, and the like were delivered to the Yan Fortress from the manufacturing bureau over the next two days and stored inside the workshops.
