Chapter 109: Nanjin
"What's wrong?"
Lin Quan sighed, this guy, pulling his clothes, felt like he was taking off a very heavy thing and moving forward, if he continued like this, he would soon become a snail!
"No, nothing!"
Xuan'er's eyes were a little evasive, and she didn't dare to look at him.
Lin Quan frowned, continued to move forward, and soon arrived at the cloth shop.
There are a lot of shops in the West Market, and this street is basically selling cloth!
"What do you want from the two guests? Our store has a variety of fine precious silk ......"
The guy in the store is a person who knows the goods, and when he looks at the clothes Lin Quan and Xuan'er are wearing, he knows that their identities are not ordinary, and the confident attitude in Lin Quan's eyes is quite different from the ordinary people he sees, and that kind of self-confidence calmly feels like the confidence given by the status of a very high-ranking class, so he carefully entertained Lin Quan, and asked another companion to call the boss.
The guy seems to know his status very well, he is just a little guy, and he is not qualified to entertain a distinguished guest like Lin Quan at all, even if he calls the boss over, he cannot be equal in status, so his words and deeds must be very cautious!
Lin Quan didn't quite know why this guy was so polite to him, and he didn't notice this, because he was casually asking the guy while looking around the store.
"This is the latest purchase of Nanjin, and the quality is the best among the current batch of fabrics!"
The guy carefully took a batch of beautiful brocade off the top of the container and put it in front of Lin Quan!
As soon as Lin Quan came in, he directly skipped those low-end fabrics, and directly began to browse the high-end and even top-end silk satin, which further confirmed the previous guess of the guys in the store, this person's identity is really not ordinary!
"Well, it feels pretty good to the touch, is this a full silk?"
The composition of the fabric is more complicated, and the worst is basically linen, which is the clothes worn by ordinary farmers to work, burlap clothes, which is what it means!
Mai is rougher and more wear-resistant, and it feels absolutely bad to wear on your body!
Before cotton was not promoted, the composition of the cloth was relatively simple, mainly silk and linen, hair and so on!
Hair here refers to the hair of animals!
And silk is the mainstream, which is divided into silk silk, silk silk and so on!
These types are basically silk-based, and they are divided into these types because of their different characteristics!
The cloth of the brocade has embroidered exquisite patterns, the patterns and patterns on the brocade are more colorful and colorful, and the patterns are more complex, and the satin patterns are also available, mostly some flowers and animal patterns, the number is not very much, the density is not more brocade, the color is less, not so much brocade!
In ancient times, plain clothes were generally made of silk cloth, with a single color, mostly white and plain white.
And the young sons and ladies of the aristocracy like to wear brocade, because the colors are more vibrant, they can show their status, etc.!
Lin Quan first looked at the brocade, not because he liked this kind of embroidery or pattern, but because he wanted to see how the other party's handiwork was!
The main value of the cloth of the brocade itself is reflected in the embroidery of female workers, the quality of the material is important, but the latter is more important!
Lin Quan took a look and found that these patterns were much more colorful than he had imagined, which reminded him of the pillowcases in his previous home!
Those are embroidered by his mother with stitches and threads, it is a picture of a pair of magpies standing on the peach blossom branches, there are not many colors, and the fabric is not good, according to the standard that he is now used to using the very soft pillowcase, he probably can't stand the rough and hard feeling, and the pillow will definitely feel a little rough and uncomfortable!
But I still miss that feeling when I was a child, and his mother's embroidery level directly improved Lin Quan's own appreciation level!
He took out his magnifying glass and looked at it carefully, little by little!
The guy on the side was taken aback, this guest is really well prepared!
He has seen this magnifying glass several times recently, and he heard that it is a new gadget sold in a newly opened store in the West Market, and it is said that after having this thing, he can magnify things several times, see more clearly, more carefully, and will not miss any detail!
This thing is still very practical for their fabric industry, because if the female workers are not good and there is a problem with the show, it is difficult to see at first glance, and you must take a serious and careful look at it, and this is a more eye-consuming thing, because the things to be observed are too small!
But with this so-called magnifying glass, it is much more convenient to see clearly, this thing can magnify what you want to see several times, so that it is easy to observe!
So this thing is very practical for their industry, but this thing is more expensive, and it is said that it will sell for more than 100 gold coins each!
This price is unimaginable for people like them, and only those rich big bosses will buy it!
"Well, it's raw silk, and it's all good new silk!"
The guy in the shop replied cautiously, for fear that his answer would dissatisfy Lin Quan.
"Well, how much is this brocade?"
The unit of cloth is a horse, and the length of a piece of cloth is not small, about ten zhang long, and it can almost cut two complete sets of clothes, which is still very large!
After all, the quality of ancient clothes is very good, and a set of clothes can be worn for a long time!
"If you go back to your lordship, this Nanjin horse is the price of 15 gold coins!"
Wow!
A gold coin is about 1,500 yuan, and fifteen gold coins are almost twenty-three thousand, so if you calculate it, the cost price of a set of clothes will be about 12,000, which does not take into account the money consumed by cutting workmanship, in fact, the price of this dress is not low!
This made Lin Quan hesitate a little, can such a thing really be sold?
He nodded, and then asked the prices of other high-end fabrics!
As expected, the price of this so-called Nanjin is the highest, and the prices of other things vary, the cheap one has a cloth that is less than one gold coin, the general one has three or four gold coins, the better one is seven or eight gold coins, and the best one is almost slightly cheaper than this Nanjin, and the price is about ten gold coins!
After asking the price, Lin Quan quickly thought about it!
The price of clothes on a treasure is uneven, some are high and some are low, but these qualities are difficult to guarantee, and the high ones are not cheap at all, tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, the problem is in the brand, Lin Quan only needs to establish his own brand, the higher the price, the higher the credibility, and the price is not a problem!
