Early the next morning, Zhou Youyi didn't even have time to eat breakfast, and hurriedly rushed to the cloth village after receiving the news of the people in the cloth village.

Hu Mingzhao was waiting for her on a chair in the side hall, and a red invitation card was placed on the table in front of him.

Hearing the footsteps in the outer hall, and then looking at the person in front of him was Zhou Youyi, the smile on Hu Mingzhao's face was a little more.

"Mrs. Shen, you can be regarded as coming, I have been waiting for you for a long time, come and see, I have a great gift for you. ”

Hu Mingzhao pushed the invitation forward and motioned for Zhou Youyi to open it.

Zhou Youyi sat down and took the invitation, looked at Hu Mingzhao and said, "Second Young Master Hu takes care of my business so much, I will definitely remember this kindness." ”

opened the invitation, and it turned out to be the banquet of the eldest princess of the dynasty.

According to legend, this eldest princess has always liked celebrities and gentlemen, and her shots are even more generous, as long as she is talented, no matter what problems she encounters, she can go to the eldest princess's mansion to get help.

Zhou Youyi remembered that this eldest princess had fallen in love with Shen Che in her previous life.

"How's that?

Hu Mingzhao's meaning is obvious, if Zhou Youyi can let him win the first place at the eldest princess's banquet, there will naturally be no shortage of such business in the future.

Zhou Youyi was not stupid, and immediately understood Hu Mingzhao's true intentions.

"I've heard that the young lady has recently taken in an embroiderer who is good at embroidery, and I wonder if I have the honor to be able to wear the embroidered clothes of this embroiderer. ”

"Second Young Master Hu's ears are very bright, and he can't hide anything from you. ”

Zhou Youyi had to be more wary of this Hu Mingzhao, this man has always been the supremacy of interests.

"The young lady is serious. ”

Hu Mingzhao looked at Zhou Youyi, and he looked like he had already seen through her hole cards.

After Hu Mingzhao left, Zhou Youyi went to the embroidery room, Su Yinger was busy embroidering the last sleeve, and when she heard Zhou Youyi's footsteps, she didn't raise her head, and said softly, "Madam, don't worry, this dress can be embroidered today." ”

Su Ying'er has always been very confident in her embroidery, but when she looked up and saw the embroidery sample paper in Zhou Youyi's hand, the light in her eyes couldn't help but freeze, "Madam, where did you come from?"

The one on it is not an embroidery sample that is easy to see, even Su Ying'er, who has learned from Hu Xiuniang all her life, is really amazed.

Zhou Youyi put the sample paper in front of Su Ying'er, and then asked, "Look at this, can you?"

This is the embroidery sample on the yellow book that Zhou Youyi brought back from the Zhou family, specially designed for the royal family.

Su Ying'er took a closer look, although the stitches were fine, it was not impossible to do, but it would take more effort.

"Madam, who is this for?"

Since it is embroidered for the royal family and nobles, you should ask who it is for, whether it is a son or a young lady.

"This is what the guest wants to give to the eldest princess. ”

Zhou Youyi told the truth.

Su Ying'er was thoughtful, and after a while, she nodded and agreed, "I can, but I need ten days." ”

Seeing Su Ying'er agree, Zhou Youyi was also relieved, so she didn't have to go to the old man.

"It doesn't matter, the eldest princess's banquet will be in twenty days, and there will be enough time. ”

The two chatted for a while about the choice of fabric, and Zhou Youyi walked out of the embroidery room and returned to the front hall of the cloth village, and happened to see Xiaocui helping Kang come in.

"Mother, why are you here?"

Zhou Youyi hurriedly stepped forward to support her, looked at the box in Xiaocui's hand, and immediately understood that Kang's was afraid that in the name of sending her breakfast, he actually came to Buzhuang to investigate.

"You, you're so busy, you don't even have time to eat breakfast, and my old woman can't help you take care of the business in the store, why don't you send you something to eat?"

Kang Shi instructed Xiaocui to take the breakfast inside, and then pulled Zhou Youyi to the side and asked in a low voice, "How is your brother-in-law here?"

Sure enough, it's an investigation.

"My brother-in-law is very good and conscientious, and she was so busy in the store yesterday that she didn't make a mistake in remembering an account. ”

Although Fang's purpose in coming to Buzhuang was not pure, it must be admitted that her ability to keep accounts was not bad.

Seeing that Zhou Youyi was very satisfied, Kang's didn't say much, but just took her to breakfast, and then walked to the account room, and saw that Fang's was checking the accounts inside, and his serious attitude was really unprecedented.

"Old lady, why don't you go in and have a look?"

Xiao Cui asked out loud.

"No, let's go back. ”

Xiao Cui was puzzled, but she didn't ask again, just helped Kang Shi back to the Shen Mansion.

The next day, Zhou Youyi sent someone to call Hu Mingzhao over and put Su Yinger's embroidered clothes in front of Hu Mingzhao's eyes.

Hu Mingzhao does not know embroidery, but he can also see that this embroidery technique is really amazing, he is the most special one he has ever seen in the embroidery, whether it is from the design of the flowers or the color selection of embroidery, or even this stitch, every place is enough to see that this gift will definitely make Mrs. Hu like.

"It seems that I really found the right person to do business with Mrs. Shen. ”

Hu Mingzhao was very satisfied, and immediately paid the balance in full, and even paid some more, but the iron shopkeeper returned the more.

"Look at what Second Young Master Hu said, as long as you are satisfied, it is our greatest honor. ”

Zhou Youyi clearly knows that the cloth village will gradually expand in the future, and this has a lot to do with Hu Mingzhao.

After chatting for a while, Hu Mingzhao left Buzhuang, but did not go back to his house directly, but went to another place - Chunlai Buzhuang.

Compared with Zhou Youyi's Shenjia Cloth Village, this Chunlai Cloth Village is the oldest on this street and used to be the largest business, but now, the source of customers in front of the door is not as good as in the past.

"Boss Zhang, how are you doing?"

Hu Mingzhao walked in and saw Zhang Chunlai standing in the cloth village, and there were only a few idlers in the store, and there was no longer the prosperity of the past.

"Yo, Second Young Master Hu, you haven't been here for a while, why did you want to come to me today?"

Zhang Chunlai was settling accounts, and when he heard Hu Mingzhao's voice, his face was immediately full of smiles from businessmen, and he hurriedly closed the account book in his hand and stepped forward, looked at Hu Mingzhao and continued, "Is it for Mrs. Hu's seventieth birthday?"

Zhang Chunlai had already heard about Mrs. Hu's 70th birthday, but he didn't know that Hu Mingzhao had already found Zhou Youyi and customized the new clothes for Mrs. Hu.

"Oh, it's really unfortunate, I came today, just to ask Boss Zhang if he has this kind of water cloud silk material from the south of the Yangtze River, and by the way, ask Boss Zhang if he knows the embroidery girl who can embroider like this. ”

Hu Mingzhao's eyes signaled, and Xiao Er, who was following him, hurriedly opened the new clothes he took back from Zhou Youyi.
