Because of Xie Weixing's arrival, Xiao Yuan felt even more inadequate. Usually, An Yu would ask An Yu and the others to knit sweaters after they finished their work. As for what kind of sweater to knit, Xiao Yuan really doesn’t know.
"Go around from below..."
The weather has been very good these days. Every afternoon, An Yu would ask An Yu and the others to sit in a row in the yard, and then take out their needles and thread to knit sweaters. This was the first time she had seen this kind of needlework. It was thin and thin with a wooden stick and pointed at both ends, just like chopsticks. Then I used the cotton thread I bought that day and knitted stitch by stitch. What they are knitting now is the simplest plain stitch, and the sweaters they knit are flat and flat, without any decoration. However, Xiao Yuan still felt it was amazing.
"Is that so?" An Luo is the fastest learner. She has a delicate mind and very skillful hands. She can learn it just by reading it once. Moreover, you can also invent new patterns yourself, and the knitted sweaters also have patterns, which are very beautiful.
"Right, that is it."
Although Anluo didn't understand that her master was a grown man, and although he looked rather... polite, he was still a man, but he taught them needlework that only women can do. She felt indescribably uncomfortable. At first, they were still confused, why should he, a man, teach them about needlework? Now that she has learned it, she truly admires him!
"The Luoluo weave is very beautiful. Let's add a piece of meat tonight!" An Yu smiled slightly and said to Xiao Yuan.
Although Xie Weixing moved in, he did not have any influence on her plan. He still let the three of them sit in the yard every afternoon, chatting and knitting cents while basking in the warm sun. The three of them all learned very quickly. They were worthy of being women in feudal society. Simplicity was something they were born with. An Yu is the youngest and may not have learned female knitting before, but even as a beginner, she can still make her fingers fly.
In order to increase the enthusiasm of the three people and win people's hearts, An Yu stipulated that the person who weaves the fastest will add a piece of meat to each meal. Otherwise, you’ll just have to feed the rabbits! And the results were very effective. In just three days, the sweater on my belly was already knitted.
The reason why An Yu can knit sweaters has to start from modern times. An's Group mainly deals in clothing, including sweaters. In order to increase the sales of sweaters, she also deliberately learned various knitting methods of sweaters. After traveling through time, she thought there were clothes like sweaters to keep warm, but she didn't expect that people here would wrap themselves up in as many clothes as they had in winter. Of course, wealthy families usually hide in their houses and warm themselves by the fire, and they only need to wear some brocade robes. Or you can also buy palace clothes, which are similar to military uniforms, warm but not beautiful. The same cannot be said for families with slightly worse conditions. They cannot have a fire in their homes, so they can only wrap themselves in quilts or wrap up all the clothes they can wear.
This is why An Yu was able to buy fifteen pieces of new clothes that day in a week and received so many orders. Now that An Yu buys these slaves, he doesn't need to pay them wages. He only needs to take care of them and keep them warm. He doesn't have to worry about them running away. Firstly, no matter where slaves escape to now, if they are discovered, their hands and feet will be broken and they will have to go to jail. Secondly, An Yu thought he was not bad to them. At least, what master would give his slaves meat
"Master, can we keep weaving these things like this?"
"What you are knitting now is a sweater, which is what you wear on your body. You have two hands on your body. If you keep knitting like this, where will your hands come out?"
"Hehehe—Master, I guess you can get those hands out from underneath, so they will definitely keep you warm!"
They had gotten along with An Yu a lot and knew that as long as she was obedient and worked seriously, she would be easy to talk to. And even if they did something wrong, she would not hit them, but would teach them patiently. So they are not afraid to joke with her.
"It will be inconvenient to do things if you get out from below."
"Should we start over from these two sides?" An Yue looked at the sweater in her hand thoughtfully and said.
An Yu nodded. Although An Yue was not as clever as An Luo, she had a delicate heart and thought things through. She was so calm and worthy of being the eldest among the three of them.
"Yes, when weaving sleeves, you do have to start over again. You can start learning this after you finish weaving this half."
"Huh? There's no seam here! Why start another one? Is it knotted just because it's so long?" An Luo looked at the wool in his hand.
"I can't knot it, because there is still a collar that needs to be knitted." An Yu gestured, and the three of them looked at it with wide eyes. "According to your current progress, it will take about three days to knit the sleeves."
"Oh~~Master, is the whole sweater finished after knitting the sleeves?"
"It's still early." An Yu said calmly, "Remember, don't be eager for quick success in doing things. Since I will buy you back, it is because I need you to help me knit sweaters, and I may need you to teach others in the future. So I am learning now You must be serious at all times, otherwise, how can you teach others if you are not good at caring about others?"
"Master, don't worry, we will definitely learn it seriously!" An Yu said seriously.
"That's good."
Perhaps because they had some hopes for the future, the three of them knitted together and worked harder. An Yu nodded appreciatively, and with just a glance, he saw Xie Weixing standing at the door at some point.
His eyes passed over An Yue and the others, and then landed firmly on her. The figure with the sun on its back looked a bit tall, and An Yu could only look up. The corners of her mouth raised slightly, as if Nuanyang's smile slowly emerged at this moment, she also smiled involuntarily. But after he reacted, he lowered his head unnaturally.
This seemed to be just a momentary action, but it was still looked at by Xiao Yuan on the side. She turned her eyes and couldn't help but burst into laughter. An Yu was a little annoyed, glared at her fiercely, and then left stiffly.
"What are you doing walking so fast?"
Just as he was secretly breathing a sigh of relief, a voice suddenly sounded from behind him. An Yu was not prepared and was startled. She turned back to glare at him, curled her lips, and said angrily: "Don't you know that scaring people can scare them to death?"
He raised his eyebrows but didn't answer. An Yu didn't care and walked slowly.
"I heard that a new type of warm clothes has become popular recently. I wonder what this has to do with the sweater you are knitting now?"
"What do you think?" An Yu continued walking forward without any pause.
"Although the materials of the two are different, and the sweater in your hand has not yet appeared on the outside, the two have a lot in common. I'm afraid they have something to do with you." Xie Weixing stopped in front of her and looked at her with a heavy gaze. She said, "Is that you, Yu'er?"
His words were soft and soft, just like the warm sun at this time, making An Yu almost intoxicated.
"So what if it's me."
"That's it." Xie Weixing shook his head with a smile, "I just intuitively thought it was you, but I didn't expect that it was indeed you."
He knew that she, who came from outer space and time, must have brought many secrets with her, and since he knew her secrets, he was ready to face them. Perhaps, the secret word in the Book of Heaven has something to do with her. A girl from another world? He wanted to see what the world would become even if a girl from another world appeared!
"Aren't you going to go back to Fengnong Villa?"
"Do you want me to go?"
An Yu was stunned and blurted out, "What does it have to do with me whether you leave or not?"
Xie Weixing watched her leave in a hurry, with a faint smile on her lips.
The sweater thing was progressing very quickly, and it was extremely easy to start knitting sleeves with new threads. Soon An Yue and the other two started knitting sleeves. Only the yarn in Xiao Yuan's hand was different. She was knitting a scarf, not a sweater.
"Master, should I just continue knitting like this?" Xiao Yuan seldom worked as a female celebrity because she practiced martial arts. Based on the idea that idle time is idle anyway, An Yu asked her to knit the simplest scarf. . In this case, if sweaters and scarves are put on the market together, it will definitely create a trend!
"Just keep weaving yours like this until it's as tall as you."
"But Master, how should we finish it?" Xiao Yuan raised the dime in his hand and compared it. Now it is only half as tall as hers. It seems that it will take a few days to finish it!
"You can just ask me about this when the time comes."
"Oh~~~" Xiao Yuan sat down slowly while holding the wool in his hand, feeling a little depressed. For her, instead of knitting such boring yarn, she might as well fight Jian Shengqin or Afeng for three hundred rounds! However, she looked at An Yu and finally endured it.
"Master, are these all going to be sold?" Seeing Xiao Yuan's expression, An Luo couldn't help but smile and turned to ask An Yu.
"Huh? What's wrong?" An Yu asked people to move the table out, and sat in the sun and started reading quickly.
"I just want to ask the price of this sweater."
These cotton threads are not worth much, but when knitted into a sweater, they are much warmer and can withstand the cold. Even though it takes a long time, the cost is not that high. The most important thing is that this kind of sweater appears for the first time.
"The price is ten taels." An Yu had already decided on this issue a long time ago.
In fact, when it comes to cost, these cotton threads don't cost as much as An Yu, but the labor costs cost a lot. If it sells well, I don’t know who to weave it from. They may be fluent now, and it takes about ten days to weave one piece. Once they are skilled, no matter how fast they are, it may take them six or seven days. Excluding food and drink, plus the cost of cotton thread, it is about one tael, and the sale is ten taels. In this way, each sweater makes a net profit of nine taels!
"Wow! Master, isn't this a huge profit?!" Xiao Yuan's eyes immediately lit up when he heard the money.
"If you can work harder, maybe I can make a lot of money." (To be continued.)
