Chapter 103: Embroidery Girl 25

Views:

Zhang Hui and San Yiniang pretended not to notice the gazes of the ladies and ladies on the opposite side, and walked into their shop swayingly step by step. They raised their hands to get the cloth on the price, and inadvertently waved a ray of sunshine or moonlight, and then fluttered into the hall to sit down, their toes curled up, and the skirts scattered all over the floor, making them radiant.

The line of sight from the opposite side is getting more and more hot. Finally someone couldn't hold back and walked into the store quickly and asked, "Two bosses, what kind of fabric do you use for these two clothes? Is there any for sale in the store?"

"Oh, this is a new type of fabric that my daughter just developed. It's called Yunxia cloth and Yuehui cloth. We can only produce one piece a month. Our family doesn't have enough, so why would we be willing to take out." Zhang Hui waved his hand casually. .

"Is it as little as one piece of cloth a month?"

"This cloth is as soft as a cloud, as smooth as a mirror, and the light is so delicate that it seems to be absent. To make a cloth of this quality, it is necessary to pick out the finest and best silk, which takes labor, time, and time. The energy is unimaginable for others. Just the step of selecting silk requires five or six weaver girls to work day and night. Do you think the output can be high?" Zhang Hui said eloquently.

The lady licked her tongue when she heard it, and yearned for Yunxiabu and Yuehuibu more and more. Whether the texture and feel are good or not, she found it when she came in, and there was no need for others to praise it too much. The new-style Shu brocade in Mengshi Embroidery Village is several grades inferior to these two fabrics in terms of texture, feel, light and color. This is really more dead than people, and goods are thrown away!

"Can these two kinds of fabrics be pre-ordered? I'm willing to pay a high price." The lady asked expectantly.

Afterwards, the ladies and ladies who followed have offered high prices, more than double the highest price of the new-style Shu brocade. But in the blink of an eye, Meng's Embroidery Village was empty, and the courtyard was deserted.

Zhang Hui almost agreed, but remembering his daughter's advice, he waved again and again and said that he couldn't make a reservation because the output was not going up. A total of half a piece of cloth was used for these two clothes, but it took her daughter more than three months. If she really took the orders in front of her, wouldn't her daughter die of exhaustion? But if you don't answer it, just to fight Meng Zhong's arrogance, what good will it do to Danyan Embroidery Village? You can only look at the fabrics that you can't buy, and their attractiveness will gradually decline. It may also provoke these ladies and ladies, and bring trouble to the embroidery village.

In a word, it cannot be mass-produced, and the artificially embroidered cloth is still unable to compete with the cloth that has already been produced. Thinking of this, Zhang Hui's heart was full of worries, and he was more afraid to take orders casually.

Every time Xu Qian went shopping, she would go to Danyan Embroidery Village to sit, occasionally meet Du Ruyan and Lin Dan, and have a chat with them. A few days ago, the sale of Shu brocade in Mengshi Embroidery Village was extremely popular. Mrs. Xu quickly moved her position and went to Mengshixiu to buy clothes, but Xu Qian never changed her original intention and only went to Danyan Embroidery Village when she wanted to make clothes. , It doesn't matter if she is new from time to time, and it doesn't matter if she is despised and ridiculed. She doesn't follow trends, she only chooses what she thinks is right.

She has become good friends with Lin Dan and Du Ruyan, and naturally she has to take care of their business.

But today's Danyan Embroidery Village is very lively, with guests coming from the opposite side one after another, circling around Zhang Hui and San Yiniang. Xu Qian couldn't help but was stunned when she saw the clothes they were wearing. Beauty, it is really beautiful, a golden-red halo shrouded Zhang Hui's body, making her skin white and rosy, transparent and pink. And San Yiniang, who had a calm temperament, was lined by the dark blue cloth with starlight, which made her look more and more quiet and beautiful.

The two of them were wearing clothes that were as bright as the clouds and bright as the moonlight. They stood among a group of golden ladies and celebrities. They were really eye-catching, and when people came in, they were attracted by them.

Xu Qian hesitated for a long time, and was about to leave quietly, but was seen by Zhang Hui. She hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and stepped forward to say hello with a smile.

"Aunt Hui, you and San Yiniang are so beautiful today, I don't even dare to recognize them." Xu Qian smiled softly, not looking down on Zhang Hui and San Yiniang because of their backgrounds.

Zhang Hui tugged at the hem of his skirt and said, "This is a fabric that Dan'er has just developed. It's called Yunxia Fabric and Moonlight Fabric. It's not that we are beautiful, but the fabric is good and can suit people."

"Yunxia, Yuehui? Sure enough, it's cloth as its name suggests. I heard that these two types of cloth can't be ordered, right?" Xu Qian showed a regretful expression.

"Okay, I'll write you a list, and when Dan'er comes back, I'll let her do it for you." Zhang Hui said boldly.

"Madam, you're not being kind!" The rest of the noble ladies immediately became anxious when they heard this: "When we were about to make a reservation, you said there was no stock, so how could it be Miss Xu's turn?"

"Who's not being kind?" Zhang Hui's tone was very grateful: "Whether my business is booming or bleak, Miss Xu has only patronized Danyan Embroidery Village from beginning to end, and she is a regular customer of my family. Even if people in our own family can't wear this If you grow fabrics, you have to collect enough to make a piece of clothes for Miss Xu. You have to know how to be grateful, don’t you think?”

Everyone was dumbfounded, and their faces were full of embarrassment.

Xu Qian pursed her lips quite moved. She originally wanted to reject it, but she accepted Zhang Hui's kindness generously. Feeling the envious gazes cast from all directions, she felt very uncomfortable, and pulled Zhang Hui into the room in the name of measuring the size.

After the two left, the ladies and ladies still lingered on San Yiniang, saying that they were buying a few more pieces of fabric in her store. Even if they were not old customers, they were still big customers. Could you also book a few pieces of Yunxia Cloth or Moonlight Cloth? San Yiniang didn't dare to nod or shake her head, she could only watch them snapping up the fabrics on the shelves, feeling a little flustered and refreshing in her heart.

Meng Zhong stood by the window, looking at San Yiniang who was wearing Yuehui, his face became darker and darker, and his eyes became more and more gloomy. Hearing footsteps behind him, he immediately turned away his stern expression and said softly, "Sisi, how did you study that embroidery score?"

"There are still some things I don't understand." Meng Si shook his head in frustration.

"How come I haven't figured it out yet. Lin Dan has only been learning embroidery for more than a year, and his skills have already surpassed yours. I don't know where I learned Ye's stitches, face-opening stitches, and feather stitches. How can you even get her Not as good as a beginner?" Meng Zhong frowned.

Meng Si couldn't hold his head up when he said that, and two lines of tears fell from his eyes red. No matter how unwilling she was, she had to admit that Lin Dan was much better than her in terms of talent.

"Don't cry, it's my brother's impatience." Meng Zhong felt uncomfortable, and quickly comforted: "The needlework recorded in this embroidery manual is amazing and difficult to understand. You can read half of it in three months. , is already very good. My brother doesn't force you, take your time, and don't forget to get in touch with Li Jiarong and Li Xiudian after studying embroidery. Without the Li family, we are afraid that it will be difficult for us to get the royal merchants this year. qualifications."

After seeing how Yunxiabu and Yuehuibu shine, Meng Zhong has lost confidence in the selection of royal merchants in a few months.

"I know my brother, I will definitely help you." Meng Si nodded obediently, and his eyes darkened slightly when he looked at the light smoke embroidery village where the guest Siyun came.

Using two pieces of cloth to temporarily stabilize the reputation of Danyan Embroidery Village, Lin Dan began to prepare for the weaving workshop in full swing. Those Japanese Weaver Girls who were trained by her to be obedient not only studied Chinese seriously, but also taught her Japanese. The communication between the two is smooth, and the work efficiency is also improved.

The Nishijin weaving in Japan is inherited from a kesi technique called "brocade" in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is famous for its exquisite composition, bright colors and flowing brilliance. It doesn't look bad at all. However, even if Lin Dan failed to recruit these Japanese Weaver Girls, he would find a way to develop similar fabrics by himself, it was just a matter of time. Embroidery, weaving, and kesi are originally a family. As long as you walk through them, you can understand them step by step.

A month later, the Japanese Weaver Girl, who was constantly tortured by hope and despair, was finally able to leave the eldest prince's mansion and live in the Lin family. They hugged each other and cried with joy, secretly vowing to weave the most beautiful cloth in the world for the benefactor. Lin Dan said that he wanted to learn their weaving skills, and they quickly nodded in agreement, not daring to hide their secrets at all. Without Lin Dan's protection, they would definitely be dragged out by the people and burned to death. That's no joke!

Du Rusong and Du Ruyan also moved back to the Du Mansion, and begged Lin Dan to open a small door on the fence of the two families so that they could enter and exit easily. The two families got closer and closer, and became as close as a family.

Because the Japanese pirates launched the most violent attack on the Great Zhou Kingdom, the coastal areas of Fujian and Guangdong fell one after another, and the people were slaughtered. When the battle report was sent back to the capital, the emperor was so furious that he decided to take a walk along the coast in person, and his first stop was Lin'an Mansion.

As soon as the news spread, the entire Lin'an Mansion was boiling, and the major families began to prepare for the holy drive.

At the same time, Du Rusong and Du Ruyan were sitting opposite Lin Dan with slightly worried expressions.

"The emperor is going to visit Aunt Du in the Taoist temple? Is the news accurate?" Lin Dan frowned slightly.

"A letter written by the emperor himself." Du Rusong put a letter on the table, and the royal seal in the lower right corner deeply hurt his eyes. He thought that he would never be able to get in touch with that person again in this life, but he didn't expect that the other party took the initiative to ask to meet so soon. What does he want to do this time

"Fan, I want to take you up the mountain and make two new clothes for my aunt. My aunt is a very strong person, and she definitely doesn't want to let her uncle, no, no, no, it's the emperor. She definitely doesn't want the emperor to see her embarrassed side. Faint, your craftsmanship is the best, I only trust you." Du Ruyan said with red eyes. She hadn't thought about those unbearable pasts for a long time, but today she was brought back to melancholy by this letter.

"Okay, I'll bring my toolbox." Lin Dan didn't refuse at all. For others, contaminating the post-abolition is equivalent to contaminating bad luck. Maybe one day, the emperor and Concubine Min will be irritated and revenge. But she is not afraid, she only does what she is willing to do.
